The reason women never purchase

Ihere are SO many people in the

hard to Judge mans popularity by

After all 1t is only proper that an

The reason why so few women can

Of Rev. II. ]. Campbell OF London. thai
business man cannot be absolutel,
honest and succeed
A great many honorable men. sc
DR.. Reisner says. claim that an abso
lutely upright Standard of honesty Is
impossible for the man who is deter
mined TO succeed in business.
The following are the question:,
that he asked OF the merchants:
l. Is IT possible TO succeed I'm bust
ness and be absolutely honest?
2. Why DO dishonest men fail &c
reach fullest success?
). Why do so many statesmen re
sort to sharp practices 10 make sales.
!. Is 1t ever eXcusable TO misreD
resent or eXcggerate goods either liz
quality or popularity of demand?
Here are four very good answers 10
those questions sent TO DR.. Reisner
by Mr.. Murphy, president OF the Mari
Cross company:
l. fes-and If done any other WAY
the man does not get the full measur,
OF success
2. Because the most difficult thin,
In the world IS to lie dishonesty for
any length Of time
}. Sharp practice is their tragedy
that is why there are so many bn6
statesmen.
=. There is no excuse for such 9
blunder Retribution follows hard or
the heels of Misrepresentation. Ad
Vertlsing may be fraudulent or IL ma,
be profitable. but Il cannot be both
There is no fool so great as the foo
VINO thinks he Is iooling everybody
FIRST he labcrs hard to gain dis
honest reputation. and aiterward he
labors to undo IT, Like Frankeustein
who released the gcuii from the bottle
only to find he could not control him
Another paper was read at the Sun
day night service. December 3. which
made tie point that the man whc
practices dishonesty in his business
has to be great deal smarter mar
than the man who practices honest,
that he has greater difficulty i'm at
tanning partial success than the mar
who is Inherently honest has I'm at
tanning a great success.
Is it not true that the businesse,
that prosper most in our commrniti.,
are those whose owners are men ~,

WOMEN IN THE HOME

We are forever being told that the
place for women is I'm the HOME.
Wen, so be It. But what do we ex.
pect OF her In the home? Merely
TO stay In the home is not enough
she Is failure unless she attends
TO the health and welfare, moral "a
well as physical. OF her family. and
especially OF her children. She, more
than anyone else. is held responsible
Tor what they become.
SHE Is responsible for the cleanli.
ness Of her house.
SHE Is responsible for the whole.
someness Of the food.
SHE Is responsible for the chill.
dren's health.
SHE, above all, ls responsible for
their morals.
How far can the mother control
these things?
She can clean her own rooms. but
u the neighbors are allowed to live
IN NTH. she cannot keep her rooms
from being filled with bad air ana
smells. or from being infested with
yermin.
She can cook her food well. but ~
dealers are permitted 10 sell Door
food. unclean milk or stale eggs. she
cannot make the food wholesome for
her children.
She can care for her own plumbing
and refuse, but IL the plumbing in
the rest OF the house is unsanitary. ~
garbage accumulates and the halls
and stairs are left dirty, she cannot
protect her children from the sick
ness and infection resulting.
She can take every care to avoid
fire. but II the house has been badly
built, II the fire escapes are made.
duate, she cannot guard her children
from the horrors of being manned or
killed by fire.
She can open her windows to give
her children the air that we are told
Is so necessary, but IL the air is
laden with infection, with tuberculosis
and other contagious diseases, she
cannot protect her children from this
danger.
She can send her children out for
air and exercise. but IL the conditions
that surround them on the streets
are immoral and degrading, she can
not protect them from these dangers
Alone, she cannot make these
things right. Who or what can?
The city can do 1.-THE city gov
eminent that is elected by the people
TO take care of the interests OF the
people.
And who decides what the city
government shall do?
First. the officials OF that govern
ment; and, second, those who elect
them.
Do the women elect them? No
the men do. So II is the men and
not the women who are really re-
sponsible for the
Unclean Houses.
Unwholesome Food.
Bad Plumbing.
Danger Of Fire.
Risk Of tuberculosis and Other Dla
eases.
Immoral Influences Of the Street
In fact men are responsible for the
conditions under which the children
live. but we hold women responsible
for the results OF those conditions
II we hold women responsible for the
results, must we not, in simple Jus.
uce, let them have something to say
as to what these conditions shall be7
There is one simple way OF doing
this. Give them the same means
that men have. LET THEM VOTE.
Women are, by nature and training.
housekeepers. Let them have n hand
