London, May iO.-The wa baby

city, whore go, 1000 troops were bill

The present prospective increase over
the previous records Of nlegitimate
births was scarcely OF any account
Most OF the assertions regarding
war babies have apparently no basis
OF real data, but hav grown on hear

Each part Of the country thinks the
war babies are to be found in some
ether part. Nevertheless. there are
many authentic Instances % soldiers

ways been a feature OF British army
life since regulations generally op-
pose marriages Of enlisted men. This
historic condition was suddenly
brought 90 public notice by the in
CAPABILITIES OF the war separation al

wives o fsoldiers.
To test the rumor that the presence
Of soldiers In blilcts and camps has
ocen responsible for an outbreak OF
immortality, "a correspondent Of the
Daily News went To- "a military center,
where, according to report, 2.O00 war
babies were expected, zoo being on
the list Of a single doctor and so on
the list OF a single nurse.
The writer interviewed the mayor
of the city, who secuted the report.
The police Inspector said he knew
personally OF only four cases. A
popular Methodist minister and his
wife had v heard Of a single in

When early spring was cold.
We sometimes snpped on ~dewberries

But oft the farmers wives at eve
Came out TO hear us play.

WHEN NJ VOTED
New Jersey was the first state in the
Union to have female suffrage and will be
one of the last to re-adopt it, because the
liquor and other interests fear the votes
OF women.
The Continental congress, despite the
activities OF Mrs. Abigail Adams, the wife
Of John Adams, and a c~orterie of female
politicians of the Colonial era who earn
estly petitIoned for equal rights in the
new government, left tile question to the
States. New Jersey was the only one OF
the Thirteen to adopt a constitu. ion
which ~enfranchised "Rll inhabitants
worth $780, Later, in 1890, when the
election laws OF the State were revised,
the words She or SHE" were used in
speaking of voters. But in 1907 the
~Sts.te,wiped OFT tile female vote by limit
ing its suffrage to white male citizens"
although since 1887 a restricted school
suffrage has been available to many
women.

When you were only a baby
1t seemed so very remote,
But you're twenty-one today, Willie,
And old enough to vote.
You must not go to the polls, Willie,
Never go TO the polls.
They're dark and dreadful places
Where many lose their souls;
They smirch, degrade and coarsen,
Terrible things they do
To quiet, elderly Women
What would they do to you!
If you've q boyish fancy
For anE measure or man,
Tell me and I'll tell father,
He'll vote for it if he can.
He casts my vote, and Louisa's
And Sarah and dear Aunt Clio;
Wouldn't yOu let him vote for you?
Father, who loves you so?
I've guarded you always, Willie,
Body and soul from harm;
I'll guard your faith and honor,
Your innocence and charm
From the polls and their evil spirits,
Politics, rum and pelf.
Do you think I'd send my only son
Where ! can not go myself?

because OF the recent developments over
