TALE OF ...THAM0R,"
DELIGHTS CROWD

Frank +. jayne charmed and delight
ed his audience at the chautauqua
Wednesday afternoon by transporting
them bodily into land of romantic
imagination with his delicately
wrought story of "Thamor of the
Peasants"
Listening spell bound, an unusual
crowd for the afternoon sat and thor
oughly enjoyed his tale of the peasant
lad who became a dominion governor
and gained the love and partnership
of the woman whom he loved.
Jayne divides his story into four cpl
sodes namely, The Bridal Chamber"
where in the fanciful land of Loas.
Thamor first heard the voice of the
maiden; second. The Home Coming
and What Befell" when Thamor took
his bride, gained through a lottery in
which he had desperately tried not to
take part, to his home, also gained
through lottery
The second episode, also contains
the action of the soldiers sent to take
the maiden back to "a vile old man"
her guardian, from whom she had
fed and having triumphed over the
soldiers, Thamor and the maiden
start in search OF the king in the third
episode, How Thamor Sought the
King" Parted from the maiden
through the darkness of the hills,
Thamor searches for her long hours
and at last finds that she has been
found by 60 horsemen sent by her
guardian and that she is in captivity.
Told Tale to King.
He starts for the kings palace and
through strategy and otherwise at last
gain entrance TO the presence Of the
king to whom he tells his tale.
The Passing of Thamor' fourth
and last Of the episodes, finds the
maiden who had denied her love for
him beseeching that the king protect
him and promising herself to stand
forever by him."
Then Thamor was touched by the
empire sword and the peasant Tha-
NOR was declared dead, and in his
stead rose the ruler of the western
dominion and he and the maiden pass
out together"
Told in the oldest Of all fashions,
the story telling way, and in quaint
language suited to such tale of fancy
the impression left was lasting.
At present jayne is telling his tale
of Thamor exclusively but it was the
general hope of the chautauqua fans
that he would come back next year
and tell another one.

Skin Without Wrinkles
Now Easy to Have

There's no excuse for any woman
having wrinkles now. 1t has been
found that a simple mixture of saxo-
lite and witch hazel has a remarkable
action upon the deepest wrinkles, no
matter what their nature, whether
caused by weather, worry, habitual
frowning, deblitated condition or
the raVages of Father Time. This
harmless remedy, which anyone can
easily make and use at home. acts both
as an astringent and a tonic. The
and heightening its vitality is to i'm
mediately affect every line and wrikle,
keeping the cuticle smooth and firm
as in youth
The proportions are one ounce saxo-
lite (powdered) to one-half pint witch
hazel, ingredients which are found in
every drug store. The solution should
be used rs a wash lotion. 1t is equally
effective in disposing of flabbiness Of
cheek and neck, as well as sagging
below the eyes.-Adv.

Suffragist Leader is Heading Fight Against
Amendment; ''Unfair to States Rights" Claim

LEXINGTON. Ky, Aug. 21.-Mrs.
Harrison Gardner Foster. formerly Of
Portland, Oregon, is leading the fight
in the southern states on the ratifica-
ton by legislatures of the Susan B.
Anthony amendment, recently passed
by congress.
She, with Miss Laura Clay who for
thirty years was a leader in national
fights for equal suffrage, Mrs. Will D.
Olcham and others resigned their
membership in the equal rights Or
ganization in Kentucky which supports
the resolution.
The women claim that the amend
ment is opposed to state rights and
they are strong in their campaign
which they have launched with the
appeal Don't vote for the Susan B.
Anthony amendment"
Mails are carrying to every candi-
date for state Office nominated at the
primary recently the "FOurteen
Points" which will figure in the state
wide campaign OF the citizens commit
tee for the state suffrage amendment
headed by Miss Laura Clay, of Lexing-
ton.
This move is incident to the speak
ing campaign. which continues to be
vigorously prosecuted, and to the cir
culation of other literature.
Don't Vote for Amendment"
Don't vote for the Anthony amend
ment" is the appeal which concludes
each one of the fourteen points. This
entreaty clearly draws the battle line
between the committee and the Ken
lucky Equal Rights Association, from
which those supporting the state
amendments withdrew. One Of the
grounds was that the Anthony amend
nent was subversive of state rights.
Opposition to the federal amendment
has heretofore been open, but the
fourteen points puts it in the form Of
an unmistakable declaration of war.
The Equal Rights organization is
waging a campaign for ratification Of
the Anthony amendment and it has
been charged that it threw over the
state amendment cause. This action
led to the resignation of those who
had espoused state action. Their plat
form is summarized in the fourteen
points.
Point No. reads: Are We to dis
regard the principles upon which our
constitution was built for destructive
policies?"
Point No. asserts: ITO COM
promise on Any Old Way is not
representative Of Kentucky"
question put in Point No. 6 is:
rs it necessary to herd women in
yielding the vote?"
Mrs. Harrison Gardner Foster.
Other interrogations are:
Shall the art of the politician pre-
vail?
why not give the full voting power
through the state? No Improvement
is gained by federal legislation.
Have you read the Anthony amend

Franchise League News
What Is the Vote?

1t is the best instrument ever de-
vlsed to measure accurately public
opinion in the shortest possible time.
1t Is the necessity of the many; not
the privilege of the few; the necessity
OF the wage Garner as Of the home
keeper.
1t is the peaceful weapon of civili-
zation, where ballots take the place Of
bullets, and can be used equally by
the weak and the strong.
1t Is the guarantee of equality be-
fore the law of every individual human
being who used it.
1t Is the ultimate source of power,
and the foundation upon which our
government rests.
WOMEN-It is going to be yours
prepare to use it.
Those interested in and working for
the cause of equal suffrage are re-
joicing over continual fresh evidence
that Indiana has a legislature COM
posed Of progressive, aggressive and
up-to-theminute men, who have seen
the trend of the times, and have kept
apace. These men are now favoring
special session of the legislature
to ratify the federal suffrage amend
ment, and to the Franchise league
daily comes added assurance of their
hearty support.
Senator James J. Nedl, of Whiting,
writes: Il am not only with you
on the adoption of the amendment,
but 1 am for you to the last ditch.
You can bank on me-"
Senator H. E. Negley, of Marion
county, says he has been IAN advocate
of equal suffrage for more than forty
years, which lapse of time would take
some of its present advocates back
to the period of pig-tail curls and
pantalettes," that he has advocated
suffrage in the last two sessions of
the legislature and sees no reason for
swapping horses now, and it is with
a great deal of pleasure he now
pledges his future support to the cause
until the ght is won.
Mrs. c. A. Carlisle, president of the
Franchise league, of South Bend, Ind,
is working hard to increase the mem
bership Of that league. 1t now has
about 800 members, and Mrs. Carlisle
is endeavoring to have it reach the
membership of the Terre Haute and
Indianapolis leagues, which are near
the thousand mark. Mrs. Carlisle
says: Equal suffrage has been made
and will continue as a subject of edu-
cational campaigns. In Indianapolis
the Chamber of Commerce has made
it possible, through the Franchise
league, to have classes in citizenship
to teach women the opportunities and
responsibilities of citizenship. The
idea in establishing classes was not
that women are less intelligent than
men, but that the classes put them
in the way of having instructions in
practical politics from qualified auth
critics."

Thought St. John Wasn't
Here; Nearly Put on OFT

Ernest E. st. John, who appeared on
the chautauqua program Tuesday af-
ternoon gave the management a start
when he walked up to headquarters
tent about 8 o'clock on that afternoon
and asked for the stage manager.
ST. John, it appeared had been in
the city since the day before, but had
neglected to notify the chautauqua
managers of his arrival and they,
thinking that the speaker had been
unable to get here, had lined up Ed
ward Amherst OFT, the speaker Of the
evening, to substitute for the after
noon.
OFT even had the powder on his face
when the elusive st. John appeared
and was rushed on the stage.

 "Of this number ten raised wheat in tracts ranging from one to eight acres. These ten harvested 41,80O pounds, or 698 bushels from 40 acres, giving an average yield of IA bush els per acre. Six of these farmers grew oats for grain, having planted fl acres that threshed out 1481 bush els, averaging 36 bushels per acre.
