The Woman and the Hog.

The relative value of woman and
a hog was illustrated in Wisconsin
recently. a woman wrote TO the
Governor that she had n large family
to support and Was suffering with
tuberculosis and desired State aid
About the same time letter was re-
ceived from a man who desired aid
fer hog which showed symptoms
of cholera. The Governor sent word
to the woman that no appropriation
had been made for tuberculosis VIC
tins, and at the same time a man
was hurriedly dispatched with a sup
ply OF cholera serum to the rescue oil
the hog This incident tells its own
story without further comment.

A CHANCE FOR ALL OF
Us TO HELP BELGIUM

The Belgians will need at least
100000 worth of new clothing or
materials this winter. Secondhand
clothing will not do, this time. Ow-
Ing to war regulations. a cargo OF
second hand clothes would have to be
unloaded, fumdgated and reloaded
three times in transit between the
United States and the Dutch border.
That would make the second hand
garments cost more than new ones:
and three fumigations will ruin al,
hut the stoutest stuff. The Commits
sion rather prefers the materials to
the makeup goods. There are mil
lions of idle people in Belgium. To
give them work at making clothing
In In itself a charity.
Because the stuff need be neither
fashionable nor tasteful-just clothes
for warmth and decency-the Com
mission has started out after the
remnants and ''shop-worn goods"
os the United States. There are in
eur shops millions OF yards OF cloth
which is scarcely saiable. because the
material is passe, or because the pat
tern failed to hit public fancy. Also.
there are probably hundreds OF thou
sands of shoes which will ''go out as
a. sacrifice because they are out of
style. The Commission wants these
things: and 1t wants the American
people to buy them Also, II wants
them quickly. The quicker they come.
the less pneumonia, tuberculosis. and
general debility there VIII be in Bel

mission are at II Broadway, New
York: and the commissioners are
eager to answer inquiries from those
who want to send money or cloth

WOMAN SUFFRAGE NOTES.
Women and offices.


At the opening of the South Caro-
lima legislature, bill was introdu led
TO make women eligible to the of
fees of notary public and school
trustee. In comment the Columbia
State has this to say:
In South Carolina might be Sc
lected 16S women from those earning
their livelihood a shorthand writers.

doctors and nurses. who in wears
time are entrusted with the secrets
of l6S times rs much business as the
16S members Of the General Assembly
handle. They are all faithful, respor-
sible and intelligent and a number
of them are accomplished and able.
Are there members of the Cen
eral Assembly who doubt the wisdom
of allowing a woman to hold Of
flee Of notary public, the duties Of
which any child in the sixth grade OF
tha public schools could learn to per
form?
Thousands and thousands of wo-
men are teaching in the schools, some
of them filling the chairs as profess
sors ian colleges in South Carolina. Arc
there any legislators who do not think
that wpmen should be eligible to tie
post OF school trustee The oppisite
extreme of opinlon-that none but
women should be eligible to it-would
be more reasonable.
No advocate of woman suffrage can
contribute go much to promote that
cause as does The man who would
withhold from women small privileges
now denied them and which In COM
mon sense and manifest justice they
ought to have.

that women are not eligible 10 tho

AN OLD ABILENE BOY LEAD
ING TROOPS IN MEXIC(

The following Is taken from pri.
vate letter, dated Aug 6, and post
marked I'm the Field, Mexico" the
name of the writer is omitted;
1--WE have had some experiences
since the day we crossed, which was
about 1900 a. m. March 18th. We
were with the leading troops known
as "Dodds flying column" but was
directly under Col. Brown and was
with the latter when he left the regi-
ment.
-Four troops, one OF which Capt.
o. C. Troxel commanded, and the ma
chine gun troop OF his regiment have
the distinction of operating for the
longest time without being furnished
government rations of any kind over
any other troops down here. We had
not a mouthful from March 18th to
April 22nd except what we rustled,
and for the last IS days OF that per-
iod we had not even pack train, and
had to depend on forage and rations
such as we could find at our camp
ing places.
I'm As marching days, since leav-
ing our post at FIT. Huachuca, these
ave troops covered over 100 miles In
our march to the border and in the
campaign. Some of these marches
were short and others were Of the
nature of forced marches and some
at night.
"Frijoles. beef freshly killed and
corn or wheat ground up In coffee
grinders or parched we're our Oniy
friends and many times we had no
frijoles (beans). But we had prac-
tically no sickness and every one felt
fine.
mo other regiment can boast OF
such record In this campaign under
similar adverse circumstances"
The Capt. Troxel referred to is an
old Abilene boy and many old friends
will be glad to learn of his doings.
