ALMOST FORGOTTEN WOMAN VOTE-By Frederic j. Haskin

the most liberal and most reactionary people of the
globe, and in this particular instance there is no
telling in which direction the wind is blowing.
Certainly, President Wilson's bland reversal of his
attitude regarding the federal amendment carried
with it quite deal of favorable sentiment on the
part of the American people But there is a dis
position in some quarters-and this is true of the
capitol-to wonder if the president speaking
ex cathedra when he said in his letter to Senator
Shields: "a
Il =. beg very earnestly that you will
lend your aid in clearing away the diff
culties which will beset if the amendment is not
adopted"
In his letter to Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait. of
the National American Woman Suffrage associa-
ton, the president little direct. at is
high time,' he wrote, that our gratitude Ito
women) should be acknowledged"
The question of suffrage will never be made
party issue again. In the conventions of 1916
both sides adopted suffrage plank, phrased with
sufficient ambiguity to permit of both strict and
loose construction Both Republican and Demo-
cratic national committees have declared in favor
of it and, of late, few of the rank and file of eiE~r
following have given voice to decided opposition.
1t may be that indication of sentiment in this
country can be determined from the ways in which
various states have aligned themselves for or
against woman suffrage.
Twelve states of the union have granted full
suffrage to women. These Colorado, Wyo-
ming, Utah, California, Washington, Oregon pna-
tana, Nevada, Idaho, Arizona, Kansas and New
York. Seven states have granted to their women
citizens partial suffrage. These are: Illinois,
North Dakota, Arkansas, Nebraska Michigan,
Rhode Island and Vermont
In ten states woman suffrage, when presented
through petition or referendum, has been defeated,
viz: Iowa, Missouri, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylva-
mia, South Dakota, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Ten
nessee and Massachusetts,.
On January 10 of this year-forty years after
the first introduction by Senator Sargent-the
house of representatives passed the suffrage amend
ment. On June 81, vote on the amendment in the
senate was blocked by flibuster conducted by
several leading Democrats. Immediately after, at
the urge of the administration, the attention OF
congress was diverted to the passage of the wire
control BILL and the senate recessed without taking
action on either prohibition or suffrage.
Radical agitation for the franchise begun
early last year by members of the National Womens
party who from January until November main
tanned pickets in front of the White House. The
arrest of some 200 of these women and the impris-
onment of ninety of them is a well-known story.
On August the agitation was renewed with the
demonstrations at the foot of Lafayette statue oppo
site the White House.

GARAGE POISONING
BY H. Arlington Bruce.

n ARAGE poisoning is malady to which
II teur automoblsts who take of their
peculiarly liable 1t is the result of
carelessness ignorance in starting the motor
ming, for repairs any other purpose, when the
garage doors are closed.
The exhaust gas of automobile motor is la
den with carbon mOnoXide Inhalation of this will
quickly produce unconsciousnessI followed by death
or by prolonged illness of strange and distressing
symptoms.
Even if the victim manages to stagger into the
open before the carbon monoxide overcomes him,
he still may succumb to it's deadly fumes. A
case recently reported to the American Medical
association by a Detroit physician. DR.. C. w.
Hitchcock, illustrates strkngly the profound and
insidous effects of exhaust gas.
1t is the case Of of thirty who, hav-
ing started his motor in a closed garage, pro-
ceeded to put some oil into the machine.
while doing so,' DR.. Hitchcock relates, "he
smelled something very sweet and had a desire
to laugh He yellow flashes before his eyes
and felt weak in the knees. His first thought
was to sit down on the running. board, but he
decided to go to the house.
When just outside of the garage he felt a.
sudden throtbing Of the temples and extreme
weakness. His wife found him later. lying ap-
parently asleep. He could be reused, but stag
gered and could not have walked alone"
Before evening he was seemingly we'll
ever and went to work the following day. That
night, however, he complained that "he could not
get any sense out of the evening paper when
he tried to read it.
In the middle of the night he awoke with a
severe headache, became delrious, and died be-
fore morning.
When the quantity inhaled is not sufficient
to DEATH serious after effects must still be
looked for. For three years after carbon mo-
noxide poisoning Ohio subject to at:

Put treatment of breathing exercises, grad
uated walks, and daily inhalation of oxygen he
slowly improved in health. But after
year of painstaking medical care he showed some
effects of the gas poisoning.
Another man. found unconscious the floor
of his garage, revived by energetic medical
action, and within six weeks seemed physically

He lost all initiative, could not bring him
self to work, and showed a marked memory i'm

Other possible consequences of carbon mo-
noxide poisoning, according to L. lie Dosseur,
aphasa, delirum, melancholia, dementia, con-
vulSions, and muscular paralysis. Varied and
extensive indeed are the effects which this per-
nicious gas works the human system
Automobiles consequently should be we'll on
their guard Never to start the gasoline engine
in a closed garage is the rule that spells
safety.

SITS to be long trail we cover to-
morrow, Sheba. You must sleep. Good
night"
Good night-Gordon.'
There was a little flash of audacity
in the whimsical twist of her mouth.
1t was the first time she had ever
called him by his given name.
Elliot threw away prudence and
caught her by the hands.
"My dear-my dear !" he cried.
She trembled to his kiss, gave her.
self to his embrace with innocent pas
sion. Tendrils of hair, fine as silk,
brushed his cheeks and sent strange
thrills through him.
They talked the incoherent language
of lovers that is compounded of MUIR
murs and silences and the touch of
lips and the meetings of eyes. There
were to be other nights in their lives
as rich in memories as this, but never
another with quite the same delight.
Presently Sheba reminded him with
a smile of the long trail he had men
toned. Mrs. Olson hustled into the tent,
and her presence stressed the point.
"Good night, neighbors," Gordon
called back from outside the tent.
Sheba's "Good night echoed softly
back to him.
The girl fell asleep to the sound of
the light breeze slapping the tent and
to the doleful bowling of the huskieS.

Il mean none has passed-unless II
went by In the night while we slept.
And even then our dogs would have
warned u.s."
Macdonald flung his ice-coated gloves
to a table and stopped to take off his
mukluks. His face was blue with the
cold, but the bleak look in the eyes
came from within. He said nothing
more until he was free of his wet
clothes. Then he sat down heavily and
passed a hand over his frozen eye
brows.
sect me something to eat and take
care of my dogs. There is food for
them on the sled," he said.
While he ate he told them of the
bank robbery and the murder. Their
resentment against the men who had
done it was quite genuine. There
could be no doubt they told the truth
when they said no sled had preceded
his. They were honest, reliable pros
pectors. He knew them both well.
The weary man slept like dog. He
opened his eyes next morning to find
one of his hosts shaking him.
"Six o'clock, Mr.. Macdonald. Your
breakfast is ready. Jim is looking out
for the huskies."
Half an hour later the Scotsman
gave the order, "Mush !" He was off
again, this time on the back trail As
far as the Narrows, from which point
he meant to strike across to intersect
the fork Of the road leading to the di-
vide.
The storm had passed and when the
late sun rose it was in blue sky. Fine
enough the day was overhead, but the
slushy snow, where it was worn thin
on the river by the sweep of the wind,
made heavy travel for the dogs. Mac
donald was glad enough to reach the
Narrows, where he could turn from the
river and cut across to hit the trail of
the men he was following. He had
about five miles to 90 before he would
reach the Smith Crossing road and
every foot of it he would have to
break trail for the dogs. This was slow
business, since he had no partner at
the gee-pole. Back and forth, back
and forth he trudged, beating down the
loose snow for the runners. 1t was a
hill trail, and the drifts were in most
places not very deep. But the Scots
man was doing the work of two, and
at killing pace.
Over ridge the team plunged down
into a little park where the snow was
deeper. Macdonald, breaking trail
across the mountain valley, found his
feet weighted with packed ice slush SO
that he could hardly move them. When
at last he had beaten down q path for
his dogs he stood breathing deep at the
summit of the slope. Before them lay
the main road to Smiths Crossing
scarce fifty yards away. He gave g
deep whoop of triumph, for along il
ran the wavering tracks left by a sled
He was on the heels Of his enemy al
last.
AS he turned back to his Siberian
hounds, the eyes of Macdonald came
to abrupt attention. On the hillside,
not ten yards from him, something
stuck out of the snow like signpOst.
1t was the foot of a man.
Slowly Macdonald moved toward it.
He knew well enough what he had

ed by the white swirl, had wandered
from the trail and had staggered up a
draw to his death.
With little digging the Alaskan

where he had fallen, face down. Mac
donald scooped away the snow and
found pack strapped to the back Of
the buried man. He cut the thongs
and tried to ease it away. But the
gunnysack had frozen to the parka.
When he pulled, the rotten sacking
gave way under the strain. The con-
tents of the pack spilled out.
The eyes in the grim face of Mac
donald grew hard and steely. He had
found, by some strange freak Of
chance, much more than he had ex-
pected to find. Using his snowshoe as
shovel, he dug the body free and
turned it over. At sight of the face he
gave cry of establishment.

Oh, If today you dream of home,
Think of the road we know
Untangling a blue skein of hills;
And how the birches grow
Against the light, and of that day
Only a year ago!
For here alone those hills again
Your little son and 1
Are wishing the enchanted trail
Would lead us round the sky
And drop US in Flanders field
To see you marching by.
And now the child is eager for
A wonder-tale of Greece;
I tell him how you sailed away
Like Jason for the Fleece,
To find a glory more than gold
Beside the winding Lys.
But while his deep eyes glow and glsw.

The tale and beauty to my heart
No world of meaning spells.
And the river on the valley-hoor
Flows over Flemish bells.

Time Neededto
Fatten Poultry

The question Is often asked: How
long does 1t take to fatten poultry
properly
The time required to fatten chickens
and other poultry for prime market
finish depends largely upon what kinds
Of feeds are given and the range of
the birds during the fattening period.
II the birds are allowed to run at
large and range freely the fattening
period IL much longer and in some
cases with wide range the birds will
never become in prime market condi-
ton. no matter how liberally fed. The
reason for this In that the birds In
walking and roaming over wide areas
take too much exercise. and feed that
under other conditions would 60 to
form flesh and fat goes to furnish
muscular energy, which Is lost 30 far.
~ fatteninG Is concerned.
In the case Of turkeys, which arc
semiwild birds, limited range for the
birds is necessary, especially in early
and late fall. when insects. wild seeds.
green clover and grasses are still to be
secured. Turkeys will grow and tnkS
on flesh as long ms these wild feeds on
the open range can be secured freely.
However. as cold weather comes on II
Is best to supply turkeys with corn and
other feeds they Will ent close to the
barn and poultry quarters, so that they
Will roam as little us possible as the
marketing period approaches. They
will not bear confinement and forced
feeding like other kinds Of poultry. In
very close confinement they will worry
on more flesh and fat than they will
put on, as rule.
With chickens, ducks and geese II IL
economical to confine them closely and
feed heavily q few days before mar
keting. The confined birds should
have all they will possibly eat of mixed
grain. or ground grains and water.
The best method is to feed a mixture
OF ground grains and skim milk. Birds
fattened this way in close confinement
are known as "milk-fed" poultry. and
such when in prime condition com
mand the highest market prices. Tho
time required for fattening Is from one
week to ten days, after which time the
birds will not gain in weight and
should be sold Immediately.

Negroes, you know the necessity Of

in the history of the United States,

of effective organization, intelligently

Many and numerous have the calls
been made for the Negroes by our
government. Many more will be
made before this war is over. Get
yourselves ready for the effective
ness of an organization depends abso-
