Miss Ada Burnham, who is spend
ing the winter at HendersonVille, N.
c., sends this office a copy of the
French Broad Hustler" This paper
contains two excellent articles, the
first of which is on the value of the
Y. M. G. A. as viewed by army Off
GERS. All phases Of the work are dis
cussed by the officers, all Of whom
speak words of praise for this excel
lent organization. The other article
tells about the shipment Of 40 Ken
lucky hogs to Hendersonville in order
that they may be made suitable for
market. There was a large crop of
corn at Hendersonville, much of it
being soft The paper holds that hogs
have advanced much more in price
than corn, and for that reason it is
profitable to feed the grain, although
high in price.

O. D. Brandenburg has received
many letters of congratulation that he
has been sued for 100000 for Senator
R. M. La Toilette on the claim that he
made libelous statements about the
senator over his attitude toward the
United States. One of the letters
comes from John Kendric Bangs Of
Philadelphia and another from former
President Theodore Roosevelt, who is
now contributing to the Kansas City
Star and some of his utterances to-
ward La Toilette are as strong as any
ever printed. Although the action
was started some time ago the tele-
grams and letters continue to reach
the Madison Democrat Office at the
capital.

Service flags are seen in many
homes and business places in the city
The ladies of St. Joseph's congrega-
ton have made a flag and placed it
in the church in memory of the young
men who have gone away to fight for
the principles for which the forefa-
theirs of this country fought-liberty
and equality. There are twenty-eight
stars in the flag, and this is no doubt
the largest service flag in the county.

Correct

Those wise men who advise us,
And at more knowledge push,
Say "Any bird within the hand
Is worth two in the bush;
Why should you want a bird in hand?
1t would a nuisance be;
While two birds left within the bush
Would surely soon be three,
And if Dame Nature tends to biz,
AS old Dame Nature should,
There soon would be a lovely flock
Of birds within that wood.

A short time ago Twenty Thou
sand Leagues Under the Sea" was
thrown on the screen at Reedsburg
and Baraboo, and it may be interest
ing to note that a recent lawsuit dis
closed the octopus in the film play
as merely a rubber imitation, made by
an ingenious artifcer to counterfeit
the real octopus with it's wriggling,
sQuirming tentacles. A diver, it was
explained, concealed in the body Of
the creature, worked the tentacles
with springs during the fight with a
man, which formed one of the most
thrilling scenes in the play. Thus a
battling mystery Gas it seemed to most
people who saw the flm) is solved.

There is a time in almost every

a dog. An exchange tells the follow

"The rich uncle said, quizically to the
boy who wanted a dog, We'll, Eddie,
suppose I gave you two hundred dol
lars for a dog. Would you spend that
whole sum on one dog, or would you
buy a pretty good dog and put the
rest of the money in the savings
bank? We'll, uncle replied Eddie,
if you leave it to me would buy two
hundred one-dollar dogs"

A HAPPY THOUGHT.

IL was q happy expression that Dr. A. R Rhine expressed to the organi zation of the Red Cross Society in this city. It has been said that men will fight and women will weep but woman today has advanced to that stage where she will do other things than weep. but will prove her actual service to her country
 There is place for woman in war. and she is taking that place. Hers is to most important place The care Of the wounded is not left to the men who fight, and that is taking a big responsibility from the men who do the fighting It makes them q great percentage more efficient at fighting when they do not have the other things to look after that women are doing on the battlefields.
 The work of the Red Cross is not confined wholly to war, Its greatest work has been in the absense of war, but following disasters, II is a great organization of noble women who are patriotic in spirit and who have got ten away from inc weep age, and have  come down to the practical help stage

GUESS IT'S ALL RIGHT.

Newspaper reports tell us that he voters of the Seventh congressional district have selected their delegates to the constitutional convention, and that the delegates selected are Judge Elliott of Pine Bluff and Mr Banks Of Fordyce. That will be news to US. We are voters of the district mentioned, and we have not voted as yet, but if the remainder of the district has voted these selections for us, the re- suit is perhaps very satisfactory. However, fl has been long estab- lished custom for people Of all sec tions Of Arkansas to participate in such elections. and it might have been as we'll if we had been given the privilege of saying me too when the district elected these delegates. We voters of Garland would perhaps have found only the names of the above two mentioned candidates on the ticket, therefore it is not important that We did not participate in the election of them. The men the other portions of the district elected seem to be good representative men,

WHY THIS DISCRIMINATION?

How long would six male citizens of the
United States so attired as to attract attention
and displaying banners critical of the presl-
dent attitude on any question be permitted to
picket the white house without being put under
arrest! Why are women allowed to do what
men would be jailed for doing! Have suffra-
gists license to commit malfeasances or to
make nuisances of themselves which men do not
enjoy. or are their acts considered too silly to
merit attention. Would six men be allowed to
make themselves obnoxious to the president
or to insult him even in pantomime9
We have not the least objection to suffra-
gist sent;ncls silent or vocal They may put
as many pickets on guard around the presi-
dent as there are in the white house fence and
may ask him on their banners all the ques-
tons, not too impairment, they have a mind TO.
That is chiefly the concern Of the militant
faction of the equal suffrage party. We are
simply wondering on what theory inpudent
mummery is permitted in women which would
be penalized in men.
Disregarding on other grounds absence Of
objection to the performance Of the women SEN
tines before the white house. it may well be
questioned if these activities Of the mitants are
doing the cause of equal suffrage any good.

WOMEN AND THEIR LEISURE.

The Hindu poet and philosopher, Tagore,
who has Just sailed for home after a tour of our
country. is wise and kindly critic of our peo-
pie and our Institutions Economic condl-
tons, as he perceives, promise to make us the
greatest nation in the world; but visitors can
mot help seeing that there is "A certain lnPet-
ence and crudeness" about us now. Ut Amer1-
can women he remarked that s'they have more
leisure than any other women in the world and
could use it well in study and improvement
How delicately that was put without mnuen-
do or reproach. The abundant leisure our wom-
en- enjoy could be we'll used in study and I'M
provement. That is not to say much of it is not
so used. 1t may be that as many women as
men make wise use of their leisure. But that
would not be saying much, since only an incon-
siderable fraction of the people who have all
their time at their disposal occupy it with
persevering, strenuous attempts at self-lm-
proyement. It seems somewhat surprising at
first glance but it is the busiest people in the
world. upon whose time and strength eNacting
demands arc made who employ their scanty
leisure to the best advantage It is, as rule.
the man whose time is largely taken up with
professional or vocational activities who de-
votes most hours in the year to efforts in be-
half of friends, church, community. society,
charity or some other worthy cause.
It is probably no different with women and
would be strange if it were, since it is true OF
human beings generally at every stage OF de-
veiopment that they do habitualy few labori-
Gus things they do not have to. The most OF
our effort productive of sef-improvement is
under the spur of necessity; and the most OF
our gains along this line are incidental. Ameri
can women probably do not begin to realize as
this travelled Hindu does their relative wealth
of leisure and opportunities for service COM
pared with the other women of earth. Neither
does the average American businessman, earn
er, worker, appreciate how much more easily
the advantages he enjoys and can give his fam
ily are obtainable here.
