One thing leads to another-bro-
midic, but Interestingly illustrated in
a recent development of the canta-
loupe industry. Some years ago the
health advocates began a campaign
against the public drinking cup. 1t
met with astonishing success. Indus
try responded by putting on the mar
ket the little cylindrical paper cups
that are sold through slot machines.
Then some quick witted raiser Of the
succulent cantaloupe away yonder in
California saw in the paper cup an ex-
cellent contrivance for covering his
young plants and protecting them
from blight. He ordered several thous-
and and his neighbors followed suit.
AS a result 5000 cars loaded with
several million melons will be shipped
East in the very near future.

England Sees q Light.

The wonder is not that hearing
should at last be accorded the English
women who have been trying to peti-
tion the government for suffrage, but
that this scant justice should have
been rendered in the grudging and IN
worthy way it was. After months in
which the right of petition has been
demanding the right of petition
have been mobbed by London hooli-
gans and dubbed by London police,
it was necessary for Miss Pankhurst
to begin a hunger strike on the steps
of the House of Commons After the
frail girl had sat on the steps several
Aours, and it was clearly understood
that she would die of hunger there,
where forcible feeding was impossible,
Prime Minister Asquith announced
that the women would be given a hear
ing and their memorial would be con
sidered by the government.
A few days ago, being interviewed in
New York, Sir Conan Doyle said that
grave danger of the situation, so long
as the government remained obdurate
against such an appeal, would be that
the London hooligans, inspired and
encouraged by such an example, will
world and shame England" We think
the ministry has stopped perilously
near that point. Denying the right Of
plain petition to women, for no other
reason than that they are women,
must have given the hooligans exag-
gerated ideas of themselves and an
exaggerated contempt Of woman. 1t
has now been some time since the
gentlemen of England should have
separated themselves from the Lon
don type of cockney. Had things
gone on as they have been going, the
outside world would have been forced
to conclude that there really is no diff
ference.
How much of victory the women
have gained by gaining the right to
be heard remains to be seen. The
militant movement might disappear,
or at least largely abate, under such
treatment as is the due of human
creatures with what they think griev-
ances to be heard That English
women have many grievances can not
be denied. A great many Of these can
be removed by statute, and without
the ballot, il Englishmen can be
brought to consider the natural truth
that woman, as human being, has
rights which are entitled to respect
The militant movement has now ragged
for three years, during which Eng
lishmen have only dubbed and cursed
We think Americans could have ended
it in a week, without the suffragette,
il possible, but with 1t If necessary
to save us from hooliganism.

Petrified Wood Jewelry at Balke's Big
Curio Store

If there is anything nicer for Christ
mas gift and at the same time mex
pensive, it is one of those articles of
jewelry made of petrified wood, at Bal
ke's Big Curio Store. These come in
charms, crosses, brooches, scarf pins,
tie clasps, cuff links, watch fobs and
many others. They are set either in
sterling silver or solid gold. Their
beauty of coloring cannot be described.
They are made of specimens of the
wood collected by Mr.. Bake many
years ago, before the government put
restrictions upon the removal of the
wood from the national forest. The
government still allows small detached
pieces to be carried away but it is of
inferior coloring. The wood of which
these articles were made came from
the heart of the trees. There is no
other like it on sale now in any part
of the world.
Like everything else in this great re-
tirement sale of the Big Curio Store
this jewelry is going for what it will
bring. The prices put upon it are less
than half that was asked regularly, and
far below the cost of manufacture. The
time to buy, if you are looking for an
assortment is Observation-Disclosures

kAISE RISM S

(By A. RedeWilL)
Of all the reigning monarchs none
is so much feared and disliked as
Emperor William; this is owing prip-
cipally to his modus operandi In
Belgium; the invasion of that little
kingdom, the destruction of plethora
of cities with museums containing
works of art. the exacting of heavy
ransoms and reducing it's seven mil
lions of people to the brink of star
walton.
The emperors Of Austria and Ger
many find themselves without friends
or allies except the bloodthirsty Turk
who sides with them-not through
any love or notwithstanding merely
because he sees a chance to regain
his lost Balkan provinces and an
other opportunity to slaughter more
Christians.
The kaiser is an ambition poten-
tate, aiming, as it would appear. to
dominate Europe. Cowper must have

had the kaiser in mind when he
wrote
l am monarch of all | survey
And my right there is none dare
dispute;
From the center all around to the
sea.
1 am lord of the fowl and the
brute
Apart from his eccentric and belli-
cose disposition. the emperor is said
to be an astute diplomat. He has
shown remarkable skill in the selec-
ton of the officers of his staff and
the chiefs of his great army.
He loves his fatherland and sue
ceeded in raising Germany to a high
pedestal of prosperity and has placed
her at the pinnacle Of miltarism.
The German people love and admire
their emperor and uphold him to a
man in his policy.
In his social relations he is known
as an amiable gentleman and con-
vivial entertainer with sparks of wit
in some of his remarks. A few bon
mots about him will not be out of
place here.
The kaiser is a blood relation OF
the reigning house of England; yet.
strange to say. he dislkes everything
that is English In little talk at a
banquet given to the members of his
staff the kaiser was interrupted by
bleed. With good presence of
mind he said Thank God, there
goes the last drop of my English
blood"
On another occasion while abiding
to the unfriendliness of England, he
spoke thus: "Englanr wants war
and has offended us. Our honor is
at stake. You shall have war even
if it costs the last drop of YOUR
blood"
Victor Hugo the French poet and
philosopher, once made some re-
marks at the funeral Grafton Of his
equally great friend, Lamartine, that
savored Of conceit with a lack of
modesty. Said Victor Hugo All
great men are passing away one by
one; alas, my turn will come next.
Kaiser Wilhelm, not to be outdone in
any such self-glorifying remarks, also
said at the funeral of Count Won
