A WORKMAN TO. HIS DAUGH-
TER.-To My Dear Daughter Grace
Ellen: This letter to you from daddy
was written long before you were
able to read. 1t was published in
newspaper which gets in the hands
Of working people, so that it might
be read by other fathers who will
possibly be inspired to give some Of
their time to the children.
Heretofore it has been the custom
to place the burden on the mothers,
with the result that so many innocent
and uniformed maidens are sent out
into the world, and temptations are
too strong for the Unsuspecting one,
attracted by the glitter and apparent
happiness of other girls who have
fallen victims to- the wolves" in
sleeps clothing" 1t is sometimes
hard for a mother to perform the
task of guide, alone. Therefore it be-
hooVes us as fathers belonging to
the sex of tempters to point out
some of the danger signals to our
daughters which will save them from
a life of shame and disgrace.
That is my object in writing this
letter, my dear daughter, to help you
with advice and, incidentally, it may
be of advantage to some other mans
daughter who has not had the proper
guidance.
1t is not my intention to affix my
signature to this letter and not being

interests, be called Big Profit instead
of Big Business.-Theodore johnson.
AN ANSWER. TO THE DRYs.-
One of the prohibition American
suffragettes in The Forum has clari-
fed the wet and dry issue by stating
openly what most drys think, but do
not say in print.
Namely, that New York's 100000
beer-guzzling, booze-fghting, igno-
rant foreigners should be controlled
by Nevada's $4,000 wet and dry pop
ulation.
If one Chicago ward can compel
their control on the state Of Illinois,
why have women vote at all,
Few of the drys believe in democ-
-racy. Look at the present system of
drys voting, with no adverse COM
mept by the vets on it. They first
vote some small district dry-fair
enough so far. They then try to
vote the city or county dry and lose.
But they don't lose, They still keep
what they-had dry before. When
you get a bad hand, shuttle them
over; a cheating gambler would not
ask that.
Some dead, dry nobody says that
no drinks shall ever be sold. in a
certain district that is sacred to the
vets and drys alike. Michigan voted
wet forever; the drys are kings for
ever there. What joke it would be
if the vets voted a district wet for
ever. The wife that wishes COM
ments on her fight with her good,
wet husband will say that most good
husbands are wet, and if he was a
dry he most likely would get a di-'
vorce, as the percentage Of divorce
In Chicago from drink is very small. |

wages, ETC., Of the furniture busi-
ness being larger in proportion. to !

There lis no virtue in small bust
ness, business on a small scale, in it
self. Whether a business is good or
evil depends on the size, of the profits
and on whether it is useful or harm
full to civilized humanity. l would
suggest that the big capitalists, pro-
fessional profit squeezing, exploiting
interests, be called Big Profit instead
of Big Business.-TheodOre johnson.

MISTAKEN
For Burglar AS He Tried To
Enter Ellis Home"
5ibulous One Lands IN Jail And Pays
SIS Fine For Little Slip
Saturday

Residents of the addition just south
of Camp Sychar were thrown into a
state Of terror Saturday night when it
was discovered that supposed bur-
glar was attempting to crawl into the
window of an aged lady who resides
in that section of the city.
Sheriff Mossholder was called and
arrived at the place before the sup
posed burglar disappeared. He found
this villanous gentleman to be none
other than young man who resides
in that addition and who, in glori-
Gus state of intoxication, had tried to
get into what he thought was his own
house. He had mis- shoes off and was
all prepared to enter noiselessly be-
fore Friend Wife suspected his condi-
ton. He was arrested and later ar
raigned before Mayor Mitchell who
fined him So and costs for intoxica-
tion.
The man was very penitent Sunday
and assured officers that he had never
before attempted burglary"

GRACE MORTON;
Who KNOWS HER?
Chicago Undertaken Says
She Has Relatives Here
PARKER Is PUZZLED
Can Find Nobody In Mt Vernon Who
Knows OF Young Woman-Her
Friends Gave Her A
Cheap Burial

Chief of Police p. ]. Parker is in
receipt of letter from Judson L..
Armstrong, an undertaken in Chicago,
H., stating that woman going under
the name OF Grace Morton had died in
that city March and, impoverished,
her friends took up a collection and
gave her decent, but cheap, burial
on March 10.
When questioned as to the identity
of Grace Morton, her friends said
that she had told them that the last
she knew of her mother, she was liv-
ing. She said her mothers maiden
name was Jones. The letter also stat
ed that "she" had a son some place
she did not know where. This state
ment was little confusing as it could
have reference to the mother or to
Grace Morton herself.
Chief Parker has secured Mt Ver-
non and has finally come to the con
clusion that the Mt. Vernon referred
to in the letter was not in Ohio.
There being various states that have
towns and cities by the name of Mt
Vernon, Chief Parker may probably
be correct in his surmise.
The chief questioned all of the
Jones families in this city, but to no
avail.
In the letter, the undertaken said
that the name, Grace Morton, might
be an assumed name, in which case
it would be very difficult to identify
the woman.
The death of Grace Morton was in
cident to natural causes, but that her
relatives might know of her demise,
the search was instituted through the
mails by Mr.. Armstrong,
