THIS ''D|ANA" A REAL MAN;EvEN
 SMOKES CIGARS
Between Puffs She Gives Interesting Views on the
 Rights of Her Sex.

St. Cloud, Minn., Nov. 14.-"There is no privilege (puff) a woman should not have puff, puff) that a man has,"
 With this declaration of indepen- dence a huntress, whose dogs collar bore the name of Anna Backson, nonchalantly f1ecked the ashes from a long, black cigar and resumed her after-dinner smoke.
 ''Wby shouldn't I smoke cigars ?" militantly inquired Diana on fur ther interruption. Isn't it just as good as to be pufing at cigarettes, as some women do, and also some men ?"
 Miss Backson-unless the dogs en- graved collar belied her name-pro- vided a movie-like spectacle for the natives as she stood garbed in hunt ing attire, a gun in the crook of her arm, her faithful hound at her feet and her mouth calmly shifting the ci- gar from corner to corner as she satis- fled the curious that she was every inch man.

of it has bought rations of bread and salt for thousands of refuges. Some of the letters which have reached the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief and upon which the Bishops base their appeal tell of the present plight of these refugees.
 One letter says: Starvation is car rying them off mercilessly. Over one- third died last winter. Two thousand of them, tired of life, said: Let. us return to our homes in the heart of Kudestan, where we will either find shelter for ourselves or be buried with our fathers For two months not g word has been heard from them."
 Another letter says: Christians are living in barns and stables. They are so lean and emaciated that death will get at them wholesale
 Another says: These people are dying for actual lack of nourishment. Those who are sick and those who are well are all huddled together un- der few quilts. In some eases the wife or the daughter bury the family dead Many of them are so lightly covered that very soon the dogs get them out"
 The appeal of the Bishops, which relates further details of the condi- ton of the refuges, is signed by:
 David H. Greer, Bishop of New York.
 Charles S. Church, Suffragan Bish- op of New York.

THE PATRIARCH OF
 THE PEACE PARTY

Rev. Jenkin Lloyd Jones, the Chica- go Independent minister who was one of the leading spirits of the Ford peace expedition to Europe, was born sub ject of Queen Victoria seventy-three years ago today, November IA. 1843. Cardiganshire, in South Wales, was the birthplace of the future patriarch of the peace party, but young Jenkin didn't remain long in those parts. In fact, he was still an infant when his parents Richard Lloyd Jones and Mary Jones, who had been a Thomas, de- cfded that America was the place for them. They settled in Wiscon- sin, and Jenkin was reared on a farm. In 1862, when he was eighteen years old, he answered Lincoln's call for troops and enlisted in the Sixth Wis consin Battery. He served until the end of the war, but remained private till the last gun was fired.
 After leaving the army, young Jones decided to take up the ministry as his life work, and entered the Meadville, Pa., Theological Seminary, graduating in 1870. He began his pastoral ser vices in Janesville, Wis, in 1871, when he took charge of the All Souls Uni- tartan Church. Within a few years he was recognized as leader in Uni tarian circles in the west, and for a number of years was secretary of the Western Unitarian Conference. He was also the organizer and first sec retary of the Western Unitarian Sun day School Society. In 1878 he es- tablished in Chicago the weekly re- ligious newspaper, Unity, and became it's editor. His Journalistic duties re- quiring his residence in the Windy Cty, he resigned his Janesvi1le pulpit, and in 1882 established and became pastor of All Souls Church in Chicago.
 Rev. Jones was the secretary and one of the leaders in the Worlds Par 1iament of Religions, held in Chicago during the Columbian Exposition, and was instrumental in organizing the Congress of Religions, of which he was general secretary for several years In addition to his religious duties, he interested himself in various social re- form and civic improvement move ments, and was the first president of the Illinois State Conference of Char ities, director of the Abraham Lin coin Centre, president of the Tower Hill Summer School, and president of the Chicago Non-Smokers' League. The published works of the Rev. ''Old Uncle Jenks''-as Chicogoans long ago nicknamed him - include "A Search for an Infidel,'' Practical Piety," Love and Loyalty" and many other volumes.

SUFFERED HERRING E NEW GERMAN METHOD
 TO EVADE LAW PRICE

Berlin, Nov. 14.-The authorities have discovered clever though simple method of getting around maximum prices for butter and the general prohibition of selling it in more than quarter pound lots. It consists of "buttered herring con- sisting of one very small, thin herring, encased in about a pound of butter, which has been selling on the Berlin market for some g marks a pound Before the authorities discovered the ruse, dealers who had managed to get both fish and butter from Den mark and elsewhere had succeeded in disposing of hundreds of pounds. Many customers bought in 20, 50 and 100 pound lots, gladly paying the ex- traordinary price or any price for the chance to get butter again, even though most of them threw away the tiny fish and with it lost some little of the butter that clung to it's skinny sides.

GERMANY PUTS HOST OF WOMAN TO WORK
 WHILE MEN FIGHT

Berlin, Nov. 14.-According to the official municipal insurance bureaus, the number of women now employed industrially has advanced to 475 per cent. of all workers, as gaainst POL per cent, a little over 30 years ago. It rose from 24.5 per cent. in 1907, an average year, to 36.3 in 1914, to 422 in 1915, and to 47.5 in 1916.
 Whereas the number of women now at work almost exactly equals the number of men, in some indus tries female help far outweighs nu- merically male hep. This is espe- cially the case in the textile and the paper industries, though the excess of women employed seems in no man. ner to have lessened the number of women who are now offering their services

It isn't always a mans fault if a woman chooses to misinterpret his 1n- tentions. He may be lonely and call upon this young lady or that one sim ply to while away time, She may have been such good company that he sought her companionship oftener than he really felt he should. He was careful not to let their pleasant con- versations drift into sentiment, be- lieving that she would have no reason to consider him more than an ac- quaintance or friend Such men fancy the warm greeting they receive is but coquetry on the girls part. They do not imagine even in their widest flights of fancy that they have &C., tually won heart unsolicited. Most men are blind to this fact.
 If man meets some other woman whose attractions are greater, he has no hesitancy to transferring his calls to the one who appeals more strongly to him. It does not occur to him to tell why his calls are less frequent, nor make excuses if he sees fit to re- main away altogether. The girl who watches and waits for the step which comes no more or the letter the post man fails to bring cries herself sick
  mental-over the discontinued visits O. the man whom she had coddled herself into believing was MT. Right.
 Whose fault is it? Not the mans Intentionally. He had no idea that any woman would wear her heart on her sleeve or that hes was principal actor in a love drama off the stage which he knew nothing about. The imprudent woman with a hurt heart gets little sympathy from the world at large. She is like the little girl who stumbles wilfully over heavy stone to see how far she can go. Even wo- men are apt to be impatient with her for not knowing how to guard herself against such mistake.
 A girls training has much to do with the way her thoughts run. Where one girls family feels sure that every man who calls upon her is in love with her, other parents will warn their daughter that she should never take it for granted that 8 man is smitten with her until he declares himself The latter class of young women are the bright congenial girls who do not lose their hearts too quickly, but only after much attention on the part of the man, ending in a genuine, old fashioned proposal of marriage. Then only do they feel justified in 1oosening their heart-strings and allowing the love bird to fly out to whomsoever it listeth. Men find it difficult to win the hearts of girls whom they like They have to be wooed assiduously It is the nen who lose their hearts in such instances, not knowing whether their proposal would be turned down or their love rewarded, which means so much to future happiness

BISHOPS APPEAL FOR AID
 FOR ASIATIC TRIBESMEN

New York, Nov. 14.-Sixteen Amer ican Bishops have issued an Episco- pate appeal for the relief of the AAs- syrian Christians, a group of Nes- torian offshoots of the Eastern or thodox church scarcely known to the Western world.
 f Headed by Bishop David H. Greer of New York and including the bish- ops of the six states and of many cities, the Episcopal Dignitaries who sign the appeal bring for the first time to the attention of the country the story of the battle for life on the plateaus of Kurdestan of an entire people, a struggle which went on practically without the knowledge of Europe or America and which ended in the destruction of 100000 Chris tian Tribesmen and the reduction of 100000 more
 The Assyrian Christians are of Syriac origin and are related racial ly to the Syrians. For centuries they have lived along the borders of Tur- key, Persia and Russia, chiefly in the high ranges to the east of the Tigris valley and north of Arabia. At the beginning of the war, according to the first news of any completeness which is just reaching America through missionary sources, the Turks and the Kurdish tribes Tn Fer sia attacked. the Assyrian Christians without warning. These latter, most of them herdsmen and farmers of sturdy stock and persistent traditions, were able in some cases to retreat to plateau fastnesses, selling their lives as dearly as possible, but failing to protect their families from the bru- tality of the Kurds and the lower class Turks.
 While the world was watching the more spectacular fortunes of war in western Europe and along the Rus sian front, an epic battle took place on the heights of Eastern Asia, as full of dramatic incidents and heroic fighting against odds, perhaps as has ever occurred. The fragmentary &C., counts of this struggle, which was protracted for months, now reaching this country and England, indicate tragic history of Servians and Armen- ians will be found to have been du- plicated in a region entirely out of the main path of the world war.
 The most significant fact brought out in these reports concerning the needs of 100000 refuges, chiefly wo- men and children, who, left to die by the Kurds and Turks, have strug- gled together in pitably desperate bands to the lower villages of Kur- destan, where they are cared for by Russian and American and in some spots German relief agencies. These agencies have sent appeals which have reached the American Commit tee for Armenian and Syrian Relief, 70 Fifth avenue, which has under taken to send supplies. Already more than $115,00 has been sent. A large share of this was contributed by the Rockefeller Foundation and most
