Indiana Women Sde-Tracked Again.

81 hope to live to see the day when
women's most vital concerns are con-
sidered of any importance, when they
are opposed to the convenience OF
men," said Miss Benbridge, president
of the Woman's Franchise League of
Indiana. when commenting on the an
nouncement from the state house that
the special session of the legislature
to ratify the Federal suffrage amend
ment, would not be called for the
present
This Is just one more illustration
of the fact that we and our affairs
can always be pushed aside for any
trivial matter"
THE reason given for the postpone
ment is that the money needed to run
the state can be arranged for without
an appropriation. and therefore there
is no hurry This is in the face of the
announcement sent broadcast over the
state that the session was to be pri.
marily for the ratification.
Governor Goodrich tells US that a
number of the legislators do not want
to go into session in August, but that
the call will be sent out some time
later. Personally, l do not believe
that little hot weather will hurt any
of the legislators, and in any case
they are elected to legislate whenever
legislation is needed A great mum

However, the stress Of modern bust

Realizing the importance Of pre-
serving the health Of the nation over
everything else. thirty-six sovereign
states Of America, at tremendous loss

Amendment to the Constitution of

doubtedly the greatest advance for
welfare known in its history.
After years and years it has, at
last, been recognized that alcohol Is
detriment to morals and a danger
to life, whether used by citizens in
the largest cities or In the smallest
communities. This is due, Of course
to the effect that alcohol has upon the
human system.
In action alcohol is violent stimu-
liant 1t irritates the tender mucous
membranes of the body and thus hin
ders digestion, circulation. assimila-
ton and every other function, often
destroying vitality itself. Alcohol has
frequently been known to cause hard
ening of the liver, to promote rheu-
matte pains and seriously harm brain
power.
There Is a time when the extern

poses, might have been excusable ow-
ing to the lack of knowledge that this
poison caused. 1t was due to the
same reason-lack of knowledge
that the Puritans executed some Of
their most intelligent and high-mind-
ed women under the Witch Ordf-
nances." believing that in so doing
they were casting out devils" Now
adays everybody knows this was
wrong and the practice of the Puri-
tans in this respect will always re-
main as a blot against those God-fear-
ing and otherwise righteous people.
Since the injurious qualities of al
cohol have been acknowledged, the
question is, why should alcohol be
issued in medicines any more than
sold in beverages?" When absorbed
into the blood the consequences are
| the same in either case.
Formerly it was thought that all
tinctures, fluid extracts and cordials
required alcohol. If statistics publish

theory is wrong. These statistics
