STOCKS.
New York, Sept. 15.-Prices forged
steadily ahead during the first hour,
easing slightly at noon. The stock
market was further stimulated by the
greater strength Of United States
steel, which increased its gain to 2
points. Other noteworthy accessions to
the early rise included Bethlehem,
Lackawanna, Republic and Nova
Scotia steels, Baldwin and American
locomotives, Mexican and Pan-Ameri-
can petroleums, Texas gulf, America
International m feathers. Last Sat
urday's inquiry for rails was resumed,
pacihcs, grangers and coalers lead
ing the investment group. New low
records for French n Italian ex-
change exerted little influence.
decision of the organized steel work
ers to postpone the nationwide strike
order set for September %, accounted
largely for the materially higher level
OF prices recorded at the opening of
today's stock market. United States
Steel gained only one point but
among steel, equipments, oils, mot
ors, shippings and tobaccos advances
extended from 2 to S points. Read
ing and Texas and Pacific were the
only railroad issues to display marked
Oils and equipments re-
corded further advances before the
end Of the first half hour.
Reactions Of 2 to 5 points at mid
day accompanied reports that the
labor leaders had not rescinded their
steel strike order. U. S. Steel lost
little more than a point but popular
OILS, motors and equipments fell back
sharply. Shippings and tobaccos
featured another rally later.

At Des Molnes, Iowa, each year there is a baby show at the state fair. Babies are entered from ali parts of the state, and judged bv score cards. They are classified as coming from cities, small towns and rom the eountry-i. e., from farms.
 And each year the farm babies. both boys and girls, no matter what age, average the lowest in health. The town babies beat them every year Yet Iowa is typical farming state and prosperous one.
 At a meeting of the National Edu- catlonal Association, held in Febru- ary, 1919, chart was presented showing what percentage of school children are afflicted with various diseases, both in the city and in the country.
 There were fourteen kinds of dis. eases tabulated, and the country children were found to be the great CT sufferers from each of the dis. eases. The disorders listed were

BULGING DOMES

It is the habit of the highbrows to berate the lowbrows for their uncouth ideas on the subject of en- tertainment. The things which give them pleasure ought to give them pain. So they are told,
 They get more fun out of a brass band playing popular music than they could get out of Handel fes- tival. They have no business to-. They can sit happily in theatre and draw pleasure from appeals to superficial instincts-and from sim pie stuff without any depth to it. They ought to know better.
 The train of reasoning that leads to this conclusion indicates a quaint conception of economies. Why is it undesirable that people should be easily pleased? Would it be unde- sirable for people to be easily fed? Under present conditions there is not enough joy in the world. Prob ably there never will be. There is extremely little danger of there be- ing too much. If some people are easy to please, so much the better. There would be less pleasure in the world if they were hard to please.
 But" argue the highbrows, "a mans mental faculties must be at their lowest if he enjoys elementary stuff in a theatre. His intelligence must be at it's minimum strength ,
 Why not? That is just the proper state for man to be in when he is in a theatre. When his mentality IS fully alert he has no business ir theatre at all. He ought to be al work.
 \ Our career-our calling-is tn, most important thing in our nun dane lives. If it is not, we hay, chosen the wrong career, and wt ought to switch at once. The bes moments, the hours when our facul ties are keenest, ought to be spen Tn our vocation, whether it be farm ing or dentistry. We should not talk, our brains to a theatre when the, are intensely awake.

tonsil defects, teeth defects, weak eyes, adenoids, ear trouble, enlarg- ed glands, social disease, lung dis ease, heart trouble, and weak men tality.
 It seems almost incredible, but if IS so true that experts have been giving the matter anxious considera- tion. They have decided that the rate among country children is caused by the unhealthy condition of tenant farmers homes. As q tenant knows he may be leaving he fore long, he is not disposed to inn prove living conditions for the hen eflt of the next tenant. Bad van tilatlon, absence of screens, unsani- tary fixtures, leaky roofs-all con tlnue from year to year. The land lord will not make improvements because he feels that the next fen ant will want it done over aoain anyhow. '''''

FEMALE SUFFRAGE-AND MALE
 A dav will dawn in the hereafter when legislator at Washington VIII III decide to introduce bill which VIII wreck his career in public life. The attitude will be patriotic, but he will be conscious that 1t involves political suicide.
 For this reason he will not take that attitude untl he is ready for nolitical extinction. He will not wreck his craeer until he has had all the career he wants.
 Then he will make the sacrifice. He will introduce a bill excluding the il6terates from suffrage. He will not discriminate between the sexes /; he will frame his bill so that 1t will operate against all men and women who cannot read and write.
 Thereafter he will not present himself for reelection. It would be a waste of time.
 For many years we have been ar guing whether women have sense enough to vote. The argument has at last become so wearisome at Washington that it has ended in victory for the affirmative. There is some justification for it. Some women have sense.
 Some men have, also. Some men can tell you without referring to book, the food values of the chemi- cal ingredients contained in most ar ticles of diet. Also what towns in South Africa are the best markets for certain manufactured products. And several other things. They are better informed than the average. It would be absurd not to let them vote.
 formed ,and equally we'll qualified formed, and equally well qualified to vote-more of them than you think. It seems strange that they have only just acquired privilege which has been held promiscously by drunks who did not know whether Longfellow was a cocktail or a suit of underwear.
 Many men and women who have never read Longfellow or familiarize themselves with the commercial situ- ation in South Africa are neverthe- less abundantly qualified to vote. But it is a far guess that they can all read and write.
 Yet there are male and female voters who can do neither. Women have now obtained this privilege, and many of them ought not to have been granted it. And there are many men who ought to be deprived of it. But no politician just now has the nerve to say so.

FARMERS AND BOMBS.

The day which revealed to us the ramifcations of the merry little bomb plot or plots-they covered a large number of districts-will soon be month old. But we should not let it be completely obliterated from our memories.
 It was in Patterson, N. J., that one of the bombs exploded on that fateful night, and in the same city abounded an abundant collection of revolutionary pamphlets has been unearthed. One of them has been printed in exceptionally large quan- titles and is addressed to the "work- CTS, farmers, soldiers and sailors" It starts with the usual Jeremiad about the tribulations of the proleta- etariate, and then it continues:
 "If in your factory or mine, farm or village there is no anarchist so- viet yet, organize one at once. Organize anarchist soviet com munes and organize them secretly as soon as our members grow large enough making us so strong as to assert ourselves in the open we will do it-by beginning to take over the factories, mines and farms of America"
 It is adressed to the farmers and urges farmers to seize the farms Whom from? Most farmers took hold when they obtained possession of their farms.
 But the radicals don't know this They don't know very much about the status of the American farmer They don't know much about Ameri ca, which is scarcely to be expected as hardly any of them are citizens

"A DECENT GERMANY MAY ENTER

THE reported revision of the peace
= treaty providing for the early admis-
sion Of Germany into the League of
Nations if certain conditions are fulfilled
really involves no change in the principles
Of the original pact
ANY fully self-governing state,
dominion or colony not named in the
snnex," declares the second paragraph
Of Article 1, "may become a member of
the League if its admission is agreed to
by two-thirds of the Assembly, provided
Il shall give effective guarantees of its
sincere intention to observe its interna-
tional obligations, and shall accept such
regulations as may be prescribed by the
League in regard to its military and
naval forces and ornaments"
The new clause as alleged to have been
drawn up by Lord Robert Cecil and
Colonel House serves as assurance that
If Germany behaves she will not be made
the victim of unjust discrimination. A
general doctrine is thus made specific.
The spirit of fair play and regard for
the significance of the fourteen points
are observed, though at the expense of
some repetition.
A vital virtue of the interlineation is
that it destroys the point of one of Ger
r1any's complaints without in any way
weakening the principles of atonement
and reparation which are essential to
the treaty's validity.

But such thing as home rule for cities
is unknown in this commonwealth. We
cannot act until the General Assembly
says we may. Whether we should agree
with Mr. Twining's suggestions about

ton. We certainly should be allowed to
decide the issue here in Philadelphia. 70
Attorney General Schaffer is weary
with threshing out charter differences

the Governor to recommend TO the consti

Attorneys General of the task of settling
differences that arise among charter
trainers.

A RUSSIAN POLICY AT LAST

As AN index of resolute affirmative
policy with regard to Russia, the
Entente's pledge of aid to Admiral Kol-
chak is reassuring. Formal recognition
of the Omsk government is deferred, and
perhaps wisely, since the success of the
anti-Bolshevist movement is largely con-
tingent upon the fulfillment of promises.
To enable its leader to make them good,
the Allies have abandoned the realm of
foggy speculation for that of practical
affairs.
Admiral kolchak is offered munitions
and supplies. In compensation he has
given assurances making for the redemp-
ton of Russia. AS soon as practicable a
constituent assembly elected by free
democratic franchise will be called, and
if order, by that time, shall not be suffi-
ciently restored, authority shall vest in
the assembly of 1917, to sit until new
elections can be held.
A highly commendable feature of the
whole program is that it permits the
early withdrawal of all foreign troops
from Russia. The American homeward
movement has already begun. 1t will not
be easy now to justify the presence of
the other armies. Time will test the
sincerity Of the anti-Red chief and the
measure of his appeal to sane elements
in land that has been ruled by madmen.
The position of the Entente appears to
be sound. Certainly Moscow bolshevism
cast away all chance for consideration
when it refused to sanction a halt in
hostilities at the time of the Prinkipo
proposal. The new arrangement should
provide practical inspiration for the
needed maintenance of the principle of
self f-help in Russia.
