WOMEN VOTERS NOT
 AS NUMEROUS AS
 THOSE OF MALE SEX

WASHINGTON, April 2.-(Associ ated Press Mail )-Ballots cast by women in the coming Presidential election will fall short of the potent ial mems vote by over 2,500,000 provided the suffrage amendment is ratified and state registration avs enacted in time to permit women all over the country to par. ticipate, according to estimates by the National Womens' Party s4t With the 1910 census as basis the Woman's party estimates tho number of men eligible to vote at 29,577 690, and the possible woman voters at26,8S3566 In 1916 however the actual vote cast for all variou; Presidential candidates was 1S,528,74a emitting ballots thrown out for cause which leaves over 11,00O,000 possible votes still unregistered. If as large a proportion of the men voters remain indifferent in the coming election, women political leaders say that the eagerness of women to exercise their newly acquired privilege may more than offset the disparity in numbers between the sexes

BELOW ZERO By OTILLIA F. PFEIFFER


 He was dreamer and a sentiment talist, but genius as well, so the combination was rational to degree. To the little community of Newton he was known as Jarvin Morton, new conner, living in a modest cottage with his mother and reputed to be an artist. In the live and active world his newspaper pen and ink sketches had begun to make him a name.
 He was standing at the window of cold and cheerless room, but not gazing outside, for the frost lay like a blanket across the panes. The mar est excuse for "a fire spluttered in the grate. On an easel was drawing board with a sheet of paper tackled to it. The outline of fair girlish face showed, but only half finished. Too cold to continue careful work, but the creative impulse always seeking ex- pression, he applied the pencil tip to the frosted pane and began sketching that same face.
 Amid his abstraction he had not heard a knock at the frosted portal nor footsteps in the hallway. The door of the room was timidly pressed open.
 If you please, if you are MT. Nor ton" commenced pleasing voice, and it's owner, girlish and attractive, faltered. Her glance had fallen upon the limned face on the easel and its more finished duplicate on the window pane. Surprise, pleasure, wonder ment and admiration blended.
 Jarvis Morton turned to instantly recognize the original of his art CT fort. He had seen her across two va cant lots several times, but had never snoken to her. He spoke now, With an encouraging smile, for she had be- come timid and embarrassed.

whatever there is cooked in the house."
 Wont you help me rummage the larder?" suggested Jarvis, and they laughed and chatted like two happy children as they loaded up a clothes basket. Then Jarvis went to secure the blankets. When he returned Marian stood surveying the easel sketch.
 "How nice to be able to draw like that" she ventured, detected at studying her own presentment.
 And how fortunate was to.catch your face as study while you were cleaning the snow this morning!" said Jarvis. "When the sketch is finished shall call it The Snow Queen.' The newspaper asked for something win tery, and that graceful twirl of the snow shovel and the shimmery flakes forming an airy veil just filled the bill"
 "Oh! it won't be printed, will it?' marveled Marian. Me in the paper How strange it will seem to mel It must be delightful to be able to make the world look at whatever you wish to draw"
 Bless the coal shortagel" uttered the artist and lover after four days soiourn in the cozy Illsley home, for the latter he had unconsciously be- come, and the fulfillment of cher ished ideal of loveliness, artless inno- cence and silent but sweet devotion had brought bewilderlng joy to- his impossible heart. It seemed as if his mother had emerged from direful lone- liness into perfect enjoyable comfort and companionship shut in from the outside world with happy-spirited Mrs. Illsley. Marian fitted about the little house with smiles and bright sayings, making 1t delight to Jarvis to hear to see and to cherish her. He frowned when the cold moderated, he growled when he realized that they must soon leave this eden of perfectness.
 "What happy four we would all make I" he soliloquized one day, and, musing at the window, he began trac- ing on lightly frosted pane. as Marian chanced into the room.
 "Come here, please" he spoke, with a bright sparkle in his eye. At the win dow she had first seen him, at win dow she now joined him, and, as he handed her his pencil she flushed and trembled. as she read:
 q love you.'
 Then. in pretty embarrassment, but ecstactcally quiet, she traced the true, simple words:

 NO Deficiency IrreparabIe.
 Deficiencies are misfortunes. but they are not irreparable Demosthenes was a poor stammerer who wanted to tell the world the great thoughts strug- ~gling within him. Instead of worry ing about his weakness in speech he began practices that would remedy the evil. The world now calls him the silver tongue of Greece.
