DR.. Anna Shaw figures it out that
80 1-2 per cent. of the territory of the
United States is suffrage territory.
That sounds impressive. but il is not
territory but people that vote, and
only 9.3 per cent. Of the population
OF the United States live in equal suf-
frage territory.
Suffrage has just been defeated in
Wisconsin the eighteenth State to de-
feat il in six months. Is il bound to
come?
The suffrage press is spreading
broadcast the statement that the con-
ditions depicted in Your Girl and
Mine" (the suffrage moving picture

that in six States the father may (by
deed or wilD dispose of the person or
property of his minor children with
out the consent of the mother; that
in some States a husband assumes full
control of his wife's fortune on mar
riage: that in twenty-five States men

the eight-hour law, while but six

Letters of inquiry to the attorneys

father has the technical right to ap-

minor children but under legal pro-
ceedings the rights of the mother can

There is no state in which wo-
mans property acquired before mar

COULD NOT SEE THE FUTURE
Two Men Of Great Inventive Ability
Who Had Not the Quality
Of Foresight.

Not infrequently great inventors do
no comprehend the significance Of the
thing they have produced. An inter
esting anecdote Of two famous men of
science whose foresight did not equal
their inventive ability follows.
When Hertz first began to obtain
satisfactory results from his now IA
mous researches into the possibility
Of transmitting electric waves. certain
men of science suggSted that some
lay similar vibrations might serve TO
transmit messages through space.
Hertz laughed at the hypothesis, and
nssnred all corners that his. expert
nents were for laboratories only.
Now. after a few short years. it is
hard to find a single issue of daily
paper that does not record some note
worthy example Of the use of wireless
telegraphy.
Levassor was the great engineer
who sketched the automobile with
such skill that his design has not been
materially changed to this day. After
Levassor accomplished his historic trip
from Paris to Bordeaux and return. at
the dizzy speed. of about fifteen miles
an hour, his admirers gave him a
banquet During the toasts, one Of
them, stirred by the spirit Of the oc
casion. rose and enthusiastically called
on the assembly to drink to the ap-
preaching day when carriages should
travel at the speed Of sixty miles an
hour. Leyassor turned to his near
est neighbor and asked in quick
undertone, why is 1t that after every
banquet some people feel. called on
to make fools Of themselves ?'-Les

WISE PROVISIONS OF NATURE

Two studies recently made b. Eu

sistance to cold is very high The way
the above extraordinary meal was uti-
lized By this Eskimo vas found &c

The other study was Of q man in
Copenhagen who was able 10 main

-Four pounds of potatoes were eaten

When hard work had TO be per

potatoes with liberal additions OF fat.
SO that the entire energy content was
brought up to 5000 calories with 10

The theory that a mans body may
confein enough electricity to set of g
charge OF explosive was put forward
by a British government expert on
combustibles to account for an ex
plosion at Stowmarket which resulted
In the death of four men. Major
Cooper-Key. the expert. expressed the
opinion that one Of the man had &C
cumulated electricity in his body. and
not having earthed himself, q spark
passed through a dangerous commod-
ity and so caused it to explode" He
added. 1T was an exceptional acci
dent. which could probably have been
prevented by the insertion Of metal
