How Does Your Garden Growf-a sub ject which seemed fortunately to interest her tremendously"
 My flowers are prettier this summer than they ever have been," she said en- thusiastically.
 1.-TWO hours later I met the woman S husband" the man went on to say. He was coming out of his club and the tenn perature not being conducive to much mental activity, again I asked, How does your garden prosper? merely for want of something better to say"
 "Fine. fne," he replied. We've been eat ing our own cucumbers, squash. tomatoes. beans. okra, radishes. lettuce and other things for weeks and weeks
 "Well,s interrogated the listener.
 Now. will you tell me- the man said querously, why garden suggests flowers to a woman and vegetables to a man?"
 Perhaps their answers express the dix ference in their departments of labor" l" was the reply With women, gardening is a Horticultural pursuit, while with a man it usually signifies agriculture. Which leads me to ask why it is regarded as a picturesque and suitable pa stime for a woman to cultivate flowers, whereas to

ellis credit be it said that his suffrage
enthusiasm kept him on the chilly
reviewing stand until $50. But still
we waited, after the lights were all
cleaning and the moon shed a soft
lustre on the spectacle. Five thou
sand men were yet to pass and nv
friend was waiting for her husband,
Finally, they came, lawyers, laborers,
actors, and plumbers-aII of whom
had waited, close packed at Four
teenth street, without even a sight of
the parade to cheer them, for three
long hours, before falling in line.
What greater test Of their loyalty
could be asked? Led by James Lees
Laidlaw, one of the most aristocratic
and substantial of New Workers, the
ranks included world famous profess
sional men, professors, authors and
artists. Symbolizing the strength be-
hind the women, they closed the
worlds greatest parade.
Aren't you cold?" we chartered
as my friends husband, an editor of
The Survey left the ranks at quarter
to eight.
"Oh, no. They served soup in the
trenches" he laughed. ''This was all
glorious, but comparatively tame.
Everybody along the side lines
cheered," his tone was almost indig-
nant. "None Of that ancient wit that
greeted US four years ago when only
ninety-four men marched. Where
was that hoodlum who asked me if
what | was smoking was real tobac-
co? / missed him today"
One symbolic group represented
New York state shackled by the three
black spectres of prejudice, ignorance
and vice. 1t remains to be seen
whether she will be freed of her yoke
on Nov. 2. But whether suffrage
comes now or whether it is delayed,
as in machine ridden New Jersey, the
day is at hand. All kinds Of woman
from Mrs. w. <. Vanderbilt to the
honest scrub woman have asked for
their share Of citizenship in this, the
Empire state. AS easy to suspend the
law Of gravitatiOn as to stop suffrage
now.

WE SHALL KNOW.

Sometime we feel the pressure of 3
hand,
Sometimes we catch call from out
the deep,
And then, nor years, nor time, tide,
sea nor land,
Our own from US can keep!
Sometimes we feel upon our fevered-
brow
A hand laid in the stiffness Of the
night
AS tho 'twere someone come back
from the dead
To put our fears to fight.
Sometimes among the shadows dim
we seem
To see the radiant outlines Of face,
Whence the illusion is or whence the
CLEAN
Of highland who shall trace?
Sometimes when all things seem our
soul to try
The while the burden borne seems
all too much
When depths abyssmal do before us
lie,
Who stays as with touch?
All! who shall tell it, call i: what we
will,
An angel God or Allah-even so,
Yet some time, when those tongues
of ours are still,
These hearts of ours shall know.

can Israelite.

RELIEF HAS

writes: Il wish to state that before
having taken Cardui, my condition of
health was all rundown, and had
been that way ever since my mar
riage two years ago last May. /
only weighed lot pounds. My aver
age weight is 1875 pounds. I had
such awful pains at times I could
hardly go. l had severe pains in
my back and abdomen, and could
scarcely do my work. I could not lift
anything heavy.
In November, 1913, I began taking
Cardui. / thought l would give it a
trial though my family doctor
had set the date for an examination
of me. I saw my improvement after
taking the first bottle / am getting
fat and well, and in March this year
/ weighed 12S pounds. Your Cardui
tonic built up my system when ali
other medicines failed: feel and look
like a different person. am still

were many interesting things to hear
and see.
Upstairs in the balcony was the
ghosts gallery, and anyone who
wished to do so, found it an easy
thing to meet 3 real live "spook."
Of course there were fee cream
cones, lots and lots of them, for a
party would not be a real party with
out ice cream.
Miss Ada White, who for the past
three years has worked to enlist the
interest of the school children in the
Doll and Toy Fund, was in charge OF
the party, and she was assisted by
Mrs. A. c. Reilly, who is chairman
of the Doll and Toy Fund, Miss Mar
guerite Ingraham, Miss Ethel
Broughton, Miss Hazel Atsinger,
Miss Florence Halsey, Miss Sadie
Fell, Miss Florida Waite, Miss Faith
Buckley, Miss Velma Maura, Miss
r. E. L. Cresap, Mrs. J. B. Perkins,
Mr.. ]. B. Perkins, Mrs. Bessie Will
son, Miss Margaret Owsley, Miss G
NJ. Robinson, and number of this
school boys and girls, who helped to
string candy and apples, decorated
chandeliers, and helped in innumer-
able ways.
The boys and girls have always
helped in this work, and this winter
Miss White hopes to make each boy
and girl feel that they have a very
special part in making the holiday
season a glad time for children less
fortunate.
A good sum was raised and as the
expenses were not heavy, consider
able amount will be added to the
fund.
It is planned this year to do more
than give the children happy Christ
mas. There is so much need in Pen
sacola that those in charge hope to
raise twice the usual sum to buy
some needed things for the children.
