A color in one respect is very much like
q human being in that its environment is
greatly responsible for its appearance.
There are at least nine things that affect
the appearance of given color. They
are:
The intensity Of q color.
Its spectral character.
The distribution of the light iIIuminat-
ing it.
The adaptation Of the eye for light and
color.
The duration and the character Of the
effect on the eye Of color that preceded
the one under observation.
The surroundings.
The size and position Of the retinai
Image.
The surface character of the eoiored
medium.
The size of colored image and its po
sition and duration in the part of the eye
which receives it affect its appearance
because the eye is not equally sensitive 10
il in all its parts. An observer in room
with neutral tint surroundings illuminated
with pure red light is not conscious of 4
saturated red color. In the same way if
white paper is placed on a black velvet
ground and is illuminated by moderate
ly intense red light ii will appear quite un-
saturated owing to the lack of anything
with which to contrast it in color. The
loss of saturation seems to progress as
the observer keeps on looking at the light.
Another interesting experiment in view
ing colors which is connected with the
rate of growth of color sensations is found
in viewing red piece of paper on blue
green ground held at arms length under
moderate illumination. II the paper is
moved back and forth with the eye kept
steadily fixed the red patch will appear to
shake like jelly and will appear not to be
in the same plane as the blue-green paper.
Colors ordinarily encountered appear to
shift In hue under low illumination. A
green pigment, for instance. appears to
assume a more blush hue as the illumi-
nation is greatly decreased.
Colors also appear more saturated at
low than at high iptensities of illumina-
ton. In fact intense illumination causes
colors to appear very much less saturated.
deep red object Illuminated by sunlight
directly is painted orangered by the ar
tist. The employment of this illusion is
successful in conveying to the observer
the idea of intense illumination. Similarly
colors appear more saturated when ex-
posed only for very short interval OF
time
The quality Of light affects the appear
ance of colored objects very much. Ex-
eept in very special cases red fabric. for

1T is all I can afford to pay said

Listen to that, Mary. Are all

she pushed her away so hard that
she fell against the bureau and cut

81 try not to be worried about any
thing, my dear" said Aunt Mary, but
there was an absence of that sere-
nifty in her tones that made me won
der of just what she was thinking.
you know, Margie, MoIlie is
very clever girl, but she has never

think her father knew her much bet
ter than her mother does. For the
last few days, in fact, since she went
back to the office after her father
died, she has been more or less pre-
occupied with her own affairs. l do
not believe she has been concerned
with home affairs at all. At times l
find her smiling to herself and then
again she seems to look very puzzled
and even hurt.
Every morning she receives a
beautiful box of flowers, there is no
card attached but she evidently
knows from whom they come. She
never wears one to the Office but she
keeps them all in her room, jealousy.
Yesterday she came home from
the office in the motor that belongs
to her employer. I do not think,
however, the man who came with her
was the man she calls her boss" I
did not ask her any questions and she
made no explanations.
you, Margie, are quite a conf

let her talk with you. Just at present
it is very lonely for her at home. Her
mother will hardly let her out of her

string of complaints, which can see
are nearly driving MoIlie wild. Sal

money and although, as you know,
she objected very much to MOllie's

NEW JERSEY AUTHOR
ATTACKS ANTS ARGUMENTS

c. +. Connolly of Orange, N. j.. who
has achieved national recognition as an
investigator and magazine writer, is
playing an active part in the New Jer-
sey suffrage campaign. Mr.. Connolly
has had experience of woman suffrage
in the west. He believes that the man
who will quarrel with his wife about
politics will quarrel about anything
and that women would fight, but kings
and rulers, realizing that they would
lose their occupations if the mothers
Of the race were killed, will not allow
it. He writes:
81 never heard of a quarrel in a real
home growing out of a political dis
pute. The man who will quarrel with
his wife oyer politics will quarrel with
her over any subject.
'One of the ancient arguments
against suffrage that l have heard a
hundred times is that the ballot is
based on the ability of the citizen to
shoulder a musket and fight for his
country. There are hundreds of thou
sands of men that would be dis.
qualified according to this rule. The
truth is that have their place
in war, and even If they were will
ing to fight the rulers of nations
would not accept them. To destroy
them would be to destroy the can Of

MRS. WTTPEnN GIVES
REASONS FOR SUFFRAGE.

Hoboken.-Mrs. Otto Wittpenn, for
merly Caroline B. Stevens, whose fam
lily founded the famous Stevens Tech
nical institute at Hoboken, is taking a
strong stand for woman suffrage and
has Joined the Committee of One Hun.
bred for Woman Suffrage. of which
Mrs. Everett Colby is chairman.
Mrs. Wittpenn. who has been known
for a longer time as Mrs. Alexander of
Castle Point, Hoboken, has played a
leading part in carrying a number OF
reform measures in the state.
At the present time she holds office
as a county probation officer of Hud-
son county, of which her brother, Rich
ard Stevens, is chief probation officer.
and also as president of the New Jer-
sey state board of children's guardians
and president of Wanaque Women's
reformatory. When asked recently
what considerations had led her to be-
come an advocate of woman suffrage
she said:
"a sense of justice and common
sense. At the same time experience
has strengthened my convictions. The
history of some legislative proposals in
New Jersey led me to see that In mat
ters of vital Importance to the health
and moral conditions of the community
there are two points of view, mems
and women's. For instance, when we
made great efforts to raise the age of
consent in New Jersey from sixteen to
eighteen we found ourselves up against
q stone wall. The senate, composed OF
men, could see only the possibilities OF
blackmail. while the women considered
only the need of further protection Tor
our girls between the ages of sixteen
and eighteen. The best results in this.
as in other cases, would have beer OBJ
tanned by educating and reconcillng
the two points of view. In this case
the mans point of view prevailed, since
they alone have the power to elect the
representatives"
Mrs. Wittpenn added:
"Any effort to belittle the amount OF
real progress made in the state of New
Jersey in recent years would be unfair
and misleading. The best men of all
parties are on our side. | have very
good hope that to New Jersey will be-
long the proud distinction of being the
first state of the east to give women
equal voice in the government"

LABOR WOMEN BATTLE
FOR VOTE IN JERSEY

The two eloquent Maggies, Maggie
Hinchey and Maggie Foley, Melinda
Scott, Florence Wattles, Mrs. Ella
Reeves Bloor and Mrs. A%ntoinette
Funk, all members of trade union
easues, constitute a strong body OF
suffrage speakers who have recently
descended upon New Jersey to make
an appeal to labor union men.
Melinda Scott and Margaret Hinchey,
members of the Hat Trimmers and
Laundry Workers unions respectively
have been lent to suffrage organiza-
tons in New Jersey by the Woman's
Trade Union League of New York.
Miss Melinda Scott, a New Jersey
citizen. beginning her campaign recent
ly. urged the Essex Trades Council to
lend their support to woman suffrage
She was greeted by the union with
much applause.
"Women are going to get the vote
she asserted. 1T is the next step in
democracy. All ome need the vote,
but the working woman needs it worst
of all, and for that reason you men
of the labor movement should come
forward and help us. We ask for the
vote not as a favor but as a matter of
justice.
"Women do a large share of the
worlds work. They have always
worked, helping to clothe and feed the
world, but in the past they have work
ed in the home. The introduction of
machinery and the rise of the fac
tory system have taken them out of the
home into the workshop. You say that
the place for the woman is iTfthe home.
but you can't keep her there. There
are 100000 women working today I'M
der the same conditions as Or worse
than men. AS Mr.. Gompers says. suf-
frage is bound to come, and | want
you. in spite of the action of the state
federation, to lend us your aid"

State Senator helen Ring Robinson
of Colorado. the only senator
in the United States, has instituted
through Arthur T. Vanderbilt, a New
ark attorney, a libel suit against the
publisher of the Summit Herald of
New Jersey and demands $4,000 as
damages. The reason for the suit is
that in its issue of Aug. G the Summit
Herald published a letter signed by
Barrett Crandall which was devoted
to discrediting woman suffrage and
contained the following paragraph:
1.-THE state which has the most saw
age conflict between capital and labor
is Colorado, which has had woman suf-
frage since 1893. In this same state
