an suffre ge-there has been a disposi-
ton on the part Of some persons to
think that the people do not know
tneir own minds, and the method OF
yearly attack is in danger of being
adopted. 1t is therefore proposed to
amend the constitution at the coming
election by the addition of this pro-
vision:
mo amendment OF the constitution
or any part of any proposal, which
since Sept 4, 1912, shall have been
twice rejected by the electors, shall
be submitted, unless six years shall
have elapsed since the last rejection
This does not affect any vote pro-
posed for this year. 1t means simply
that hereafter any proposition which
has been twice rejected since the
adoption of the new constitution shall
rot again be submitted to the people
for six years. That is perfectly rea.
sonable proposition, and it ought to
prevail. We ought to have too much
regard for our state constitution to
subject it to any "Off-again-on-again'

Nothing is gained by anybody, except
those who profit directly by agitation,

After Margery Grierson had let her
self out of the sitting little closet un-
der the hall stair, she went into the
darkened library and sat for long
time staring at the cold hearth. 1t was
a crooked world, and just now 1t was a
sharply cruel one. There was much to
be read between the lines of the short
telephone talk with Edward Raymer.
The trap was sprung and it's jaws were
closing; and in his extremity Kenneth
Griswold was turning, not to the wom-
an who had condoned and shielded and
paid the costly price, but to the other.

the prolonged stare had brought the
quick-springing tears to her eyes; and

Good Men Are Scarce.

who fought for the Confederacy, read
something in the dispatches from the

very much of what happened when
he was serving in the western army

1t was possibly an hour beyond Brof
fins visit when Margery, having sue
cessfully read the sick man to sleep
tiptoed out Of the room and went be
low stairs to shut herself into the hall
telephone closet. The number she
asked for was that of the RaymeI

Whoopinu Couuh.

The Bureau of Laboratories of the
New York board of health has been
conducting an extensive investigation
of whooping cough, and DR.. Paul Lut'
finger recently reported TO the Medi'
cal association of the greater city OF
New York some of the results of that
inquiry.
Among the most interesting con.
clusions reached is that the early part
of the disease is the most infectious.
The bacillus that is believed to cause
it is rarely found in the sputum after
the first week of the paroxysmal, or
whooping, stage, so there would seem
to be no necessity for the child to be
kept in the house for more than a
week after the whoop appears"
Doctor Luttinger says physicians un'
derestimate the seriousness of the dis
ease and fail to report cases. Only
26 per cent of cases in certain area
were reported, and probably not more
than 10 per cent are reported iD

was going away she turned to repeat
the caution. Andrew Galbraith's eyes
were closed in weariness, and he did
not see that she was standing with her
back to the wall while she admonished
him, or that, when she had gone to
send the visitor up, the earpiece of the
house telephone set had been detached
from its hook and left dangling by its
wire cord.
Miss Emerson went on into the H.
brary after she had met the detective
at the door and had told him how to
find the upstairs room. When the
sound of a cautiously closed door told
her that Broffin had entered the sick
room, she snatched the receiver of the
library house phone from it's hook and
held it to her ear. For little time
keen anxiety wrote its sign manual in
the knitted brows and the tightly
pressed lips. Then she smiled and
the dark eyes grew softly radiant. The
dear old saint" she whispered; "the
dear. dear old saint" And when Brof-
fin came down a few minutes later. she
went to open the hall door for him,
serenely demure and with honey on
her tongue, as befitted the role of
"everybodys good angel"
did you find him worse than you
feared, or better than you hoped?" she
asked.
He's mighty near the edge, should
say-what? But you never can tell.

Thus cambridge, sometime star re.
porter for the Louisianian, turning up
at the climaxing instant to prove the
crowded condition of an overnarrow
world, much as Matthew Broffin had
once turned up on the after-deck OF
the coastwise steamer Adelantado TO
prove it to him.
While Griswold, with every nerve
on edge. was acknowledging the in
PRODUCTION which he could by no
means avoid, Broffin drew nearer
From the porch steps he could both
see and hear. cambridge, cheerfully
loquacious, continued to do most OF
the talking. He was telling Griswold

skillfully attuned to all the tone varia

he detected a quaver OF anxious i'm
patience in the half-absent query.
"Yes; l was going on through to-
night but Johnson, here, stumped me
to stop over. He said might be able
to get news story out of his sick
president" Bainbridge ratified on.

gentleman of the Walter-Scott brand.

Griswold asked; and now Broffin made

Something clicked in Brohn's brain.
The final doubt was cleared away.

Co.. the week of Aug. 20 at the Star
Theatre, could pass muster on nreyi-
Gus laurels, but is adding to it's nres-
tige this season rather than living IN
past glory. Mr.. Weingarten has not on
ly added more people to his already
large organization but he has nlaced
people in the cast, any Of which would
be a worthy recommendation tn anv
burlesque company on the road. There
is also a new musical comedy with q
farcical plot entitled "A Topsy Turvv
Honeymoon" to exploit this aggrega-
ton of talent. The piece fairly huh.
bles with real wit and humor. and
staged, as it is, under the personal
direction of Mr.. Weingarten, the dance
and song numbers are guaranteed to
be above par, and for good measure
Mr. Weingarten has arranged what he
terms "A Big Revue Of American
Stage Celebrities" in which every
principal of the company is required
to portray one of the leading lights
on the American Stage. To those who
recall Bert Bertrand, the mere men
ton of his name invites laughter. He
is again with the Weingarten show
and is funnier and more clever
than ever; and equally laughable in
his boisterous way is Pat Daily in the
part of Herman Schultz, and aiding
this great pair of laugh-makers is that
inimitable fellow, Billy West. And in
the selection of the women, Mr.. Vein
garten has been usually fortunate
this season. Heading the feminine
contigent this year is Bulah Benton,
the highest paid primma donna in Bur.

Ethel Reynolds, Pauline Harice and
