Some Consistent U.s. BY Webster

just now, says to American women
without you the country could not exist
for lack of men, but laws to govern you
shall be passed by men, and If you are
charged with breaking one Of these laws
you shall be judged by men, and II con
victed of breaking law, your last appear
shall be to a man.
You shall have no voice. this modern
Americanism says to woman, but you
shall be ruled, and though the Revolu-
tionary war was fought as protest
against taxation without representation
not a word are you to have to say about
who shall value your property, or how
much your taxes shall be or how the
money you expend in taxes shall be used
Americanism as declared for by the
big party platforms, which deny woman
voice in government the same as en-
loved by man, seems TO stand Ter po-
lite form of pocketpicking, with women
as its victims.

have been asked 10 say some
thing about psychic re-education, a
term much used nowadays by GER
tain members OF the medical pro
fession. II is not. perhaps. a well
chosen term, for IL certainly has
a mysterious. occult sound. But It
really has no occult significance.
Put - briefly as possible. psychic
re-education means merely the es-
tablishiug. by explanation and sug-
gestion. OF new ideas and menta'
habits TO take the place OF ideas
and mental habits which have
rroved harmful TO the person having
/ hem.
As used by medical men. psychic
| re-education constitutes a helpful
method OF dealing with some com
mon forms OF nervous and mental
disease.
Many nervous patients are nerv-
Gus simply because they have been
trained TO think in unhealthy ways.
They have acquired bad mental hab-
its. such as thinking too much
about themselves. allowing them
selves 20 be unduly swayed by their
, emotions. etc. Their nervous symp-
toms result directly from their
faulty modes OF thinking, and can
be cured by educating the patient
| 20 think more healthily.
In this way it often IL possible
for the skilled specialists in nerv-
Gus troubles 20 bring about cures
that seem almost miraculous.
Let me given an example from
real life. the case OF a woman sue
cessfully treated through psychic
re-educatiou by that eminent Bos
ton specialist, Or Morton Prince.

years from backaches and genera

The Boy or Girl
That Quits School
~ DR.. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank Crane)

Don't hustle. Think!
An ounce of intelligent getting ready
is worth pound of fussing.
Time spent in sharpening your axe
counts as ten times of hacking and
hewing.
1t is certainly worth while to take aim
before you shoot.
There is some good in keeping everlast-
ingly at it, but deal of humbug, too.
II you're doing thing wrong, the
more everlastingly you keep at it the
worse you're off.
Nine-tenths of efficiency is prepared
ness.
If you are boy, go through school. I
have met thousands of men in my time I
never knew one to say he was sorry he
went to school; | never knew one who
had failed to finish his schooling that
did not say he was sorry for it.
Of all fools on earth the boy who will
not take an education when he has a
chance is the most sickening He is de-
iberately handicapping himself in race
where he needs every advantage.
He is giving the other fellows odds
when he needs for himself all the favor
able conditions he can get.
He is laying up many an hour of hui
initiation for himself, days of regret,
nights of bitter self-accusation.
He is pitting his immature judgment
against the accumulated experience and
wisdom of the whole human race.
He is iRdulging in weakness or laziness
or pique that he will pay for a hundred
times over.
He is selling his birthright for mess
of pottage.
He is laying up shame and pain for all
who are unfortunate enough to love him.
He is an ass.
He is a monumental, three-star, prize,
blue ribbon, exhibition ass.
He is an ass of the longest cared and
palest gray variety.
God help him, for he won't let anybody
else!
If these few feeble remarks shall jolt
any youth into a realization Of the colos-
sal mistake he is making in quitting
school, shall be happy.
We are opposed to corporal punish
ment and to all forms of violence, We are
confirmed paciists and opposed to mill
tarism, but if there is any one thing that
makes us want to use a large, bumpy,
hickory club it is the boy or girl that will
not go to school.
OF course. some people have achieved
success who never had any schooling.
True. Some people also got rich or ia
nous who had but one leg or were blind.
Shall we therefore lop off leg or put out
one eye?

have to blush or make apologies.
Political parties at the time Of its ar
rival will be glad to declare for it.
The people have always progressed
faster than political parties have.
An indication of this progress IS con-
tanned in the sop that both OF the big
parties throw out to the women voters
of the country. as a compromise TO their
demands that women generally be given
the ballot.
Just as the advent of prohibition has
been foreshadowed for years by the or
ganization of model license leagues. by
the passage of home rule bills and local
option bills, and other compromise propo-
sitions. so is the equal suffrage OF
women foreshadowed by these party
platforms. which admit that 1t Is all

selves, can get it, but which admits, also,
that Eve haven't the bravery TO help
