SUFFRAGE Still
NEEDS ONE VOTE
Intensive Campaign is Planned for
Purpose Of Capturing Required
Tally.

WashinIton, Nov. 17.-Suffragists
still need one vote to pass the susan
B. Anthony amendment through the
senate. They have one hundred days
left in which to secure this vote be-
fore the present congress ends. IL
March the measure will have to be
put through the house again.
Leaders of the national woman's
party this week will begin campaigns
in three states in the hope OF winning
over at least the one necessary scna-
tor. Plans also are being made for a
great dem onstration at the capital in
the middle of December to stir the
members OF the upper branch to
favorable action.
The three best chances for winning
over the one required vote. the suf-
fragists believe, are Senator Gay, Of
Louisiana: Senator Borah, Of Idaho,
and the successful candidate for the
contested senatorship election in New
Hampshire. Senator Gay is in favor
of woman suffrage, but a statewide
suffrage measure was defeated at the
recent election In Louisiana The
suffragists leaders now are hoping to
get him to support the federal method
of securing the reform. Senator
Borah's position is put down as un-
certain. II is believed that there Is a
possibility OF altering his views on
the question.
John B. Jameson, the democratic
candidate in New Hampshire, already
is a supporter of the suffrage amend
ment. George Moses. republican can
didate. has not yet announced his
stand. Suffragists will attempt to
bring a declaration from him before
the contested election is finally de-
cided.
Organizers and speakers of the ma
tional womans party will tour these
states to bring all possible pressure
to bear on the three doubtful men.
Alice Paul, chairman of the wo-
mans party, charges that the anti
suffrage forces in the senate met on
the day President Wilson read the
armistice terms to congress and
agreed to prevent a vote on the suf-
frage amendment at this session.

to the fact that f-government. VIC
torious throughout the rest of the
world, is delayed and obstructed by
the United States senate. If a thou
sand women would protest before the
doors Of the Capitol the battle for
their enfran chisement would be Won"
The women at the party headquar-
tiers here profess to entertain little
doubt that they can secure the one
deciding vote within the one hundred
days left to them. With the war
virtually over. the people of the coun-
try will have more time and thought
to give to other important matters,
it is pointed out, and when the voters
seriously consider the suffrage situa
ton, it is confidently believed they
will express their sentiments to their
senators in such forceful manner that
favorable action will result.

Chronic Constipation

Perhaps you have never thought
Of it. but this disorder is due to a
lack of moister i'll the residual mat
ter of the food. If you will drink
an abundance of water, eat raw
fruits and take lots of outdoor ex-
ercise, you may be able eventually
to overcome it entirely. In the
meantime use the most mild geDtle
laxatives. Strong and harsh cath
critics take too much water out OF
the system and makes a bad matter
worse. Chamberlain S Tablets are
easy and pleasant to take, and most
agreeable in effect. Give them

The Doctor Away From Home When
Most Needed

People are often very much dis
to find that their family
physician is away from home when
they most need his services. Dis
eases like pain in the stomach and
bowels, collie and diarrhoea require
prompt treatment, and have in
many instances proven fatal before
medicine could be procured or a
summoned. The right
way is to keep at hand bottle of
Chamberlain S Collie and Diarrhoea
Remedy. No physician can pre-
scribe a better medicine for these
diseases. BY having it in the house
you escape much pain and suffering
and all risk. Buy it now; it may
