The Burden of The Ballot
BY ELIZA CALVERT HALL.

The following article is taken from
a recent issue Of The Woman's Jour
nal:
Tho Antis protests against having
the burden Of the ballot" forced on
woman reminds me Of the following
story from the Boston Post:
at amt everybody I'd trust my
little gal to-" said old Farmer Skin
ner to the love-lorn swain who in the
Far West had become enamored OF
Miss Sally Skinner and wished to
carry her from the loving care and
shelter OF the home nest.
You must take great care Of my
wee birding. Jack: ricollect that
she's been raised kind o. tender like.
Two acres day is all I've asked
her to pillow, and an acre Of corn a
day is all she's used to hoeing. She
kin do light work such as making
rail fences and digging post holes,
and burning brush. and all that, but
she amt used to regular farm work.
and you mustn't ask too much of her.
It's hard for her old dad to give his
little sunshine up. He'll have to split
his own hrewood and dig his own
taters now but go. birdie, and be
happy"
We women like the little GAL in
the story, have been 'raised very
tender like" When we work in fac
tories. mills and sweatshops eight
or ten hours work a day is all we
are asked to do; and when we work
at home, a twelve or fifteen-hour day
is all we are used to. We can't do
anything more than perform the lit
tie offices Of housekeeper, cook. nurse,
chambermaid, seamstress and laun-
dress, with now and then a little job
Of keeping boarders thrown in. just
to prevent time from hanging heavy
on our hands.
We can do such light work as
teaching in schools and colleges
writing books. carving statues and
painting pictures; we can sing and
dance and play on various instru-
ments and write plays and act in
them; when an army goes Ia war
go with them to nurse the sick and
wounded; as stenographers. clerks
and bookkeepers. we keep the wheels
going in the world OF business: we arc
the foundation stones of the home
and the pillars OF the church: and. in
