THE Same Anti" refers. and md that

synpathize with Mrs. Pankhurst. but
for accusing American suffragists OF
double dealing, namely. of passing
resolutions dep1oring militancy while
secretly excusing violent methods and
almost adoring Mrs Panihurst."
which Is. of course. very different
matter.
With tho exception OF n small band
OF women. the suffragis.s OF The world
are opposed to militant methods for
gaining the ballot. American suffrag-
lists have proven this. not only by
passing resolutions. but by the meth
DDS they have pursued In striving for
Acknowledgement How can any one ar
quo that there Is any Inconsistency In
opposing militant methods, and at the
same time admitting the courage and
daring and utter forgetfulness Of self
for tho sake OF principle which the
English militants have snown in thoir
struggle for political freedom7
And 80. THE Same ANTI Is in tho
position still of either wilfully
maligning the suffragists or OF being
in that anti state of mind which pre-
vents his grasping the thought that
suffragists can with absolute sin

This II tho health age.
During the present generation great

havo been made than over before In

Some OF tho moro important features
IN the worldwide campaign for bet-
ter health are:

Now the medical profession, social
