BRooMs FROM PINE NEEDLES
Said 70 BE an Excellent Substitute for
the Bristles Now Used, and Will
Last Longer.

One Of the latest discoveries is a
new use for pine needles. 1t has been
found that the needles Of the pine
make fair substitute for bristles In
brushes and brooms. They are found
in great quantities on the ground In
fir forests, and, owing to the large
amount Of silica in them. they are
hard, and do not decay rapidly.
The pine needles are dealt with IN
two ways. Where they are long they
are simply punched together and tied
firmly, and stick Is pushed down the
center as handle.
The other plan Is to insert clusters
of smaller needles In holes in thick
ish piece of wood. These holes are
filled with hot pitch, and when this
material has set hard and dry the pine
needles are held firmly In place.
Elaborate tests have shown that
pine needles wear well. They are not
more easily broken than much of the
material which has been commonly
used in Recommending, and, owing to
their hardness. they can Withstand Q
great deal of friction.

by Hawthorne and his friends. 1t was
no more successful and SienkiewicZ re-

Then he turned to novel writing. He
wrote brilliantly and rapidly. turning
with the utmost ease from realistic
pictures Of contemporary life to stories
of romance and to historical novels.
Children Of the Soil" which he called
his best book, is a simple story OF
Polish life which won more favor with
his own countrymen than it did abroad,
In the sos he completed his tremen-
dous trilogy, with Fire and Sword,

WOMEN EQUAL
MEN VOTERS
Estimate Hamilton County
Women Will Equal Num-
Der of men to Vote
This Fall.
PARTIES AT WORK
Both Republican and Demo-
cratic Forces Lining up
PARTIES AT WORE

Although it is estimated there are as
many eligible women voters in Hamll-
ton county as there are male voters,
not one office seeker in Hamilton cOm-
ty was present at the jubilee meeting
held last night ut the Chamber OF Com
merce rooms. The number of men vot-
ers in the June primaries in this
county was 2,S13, and estimates place
the number of women who will vote
in the fall elections very close to that
number.
The last state census showed that
there were nearly an equal number OF
men and women in the state, and that
there were GS4.94O male voters. Not
more than two-tlirds of these have vOt-
cd ut any one time. The highest vote
ever recorded was for governor in 1916
when 516.A7 men voted.
The best estimates place the woman
vote in Iowa this fall at 25OOOO to oOO,
600 and the states total ticket at $50,
600 to 725,0OO.
Organizing Forces.
Both Republican and Democratic
state organizations are gathering
their forces for the election this fall.
Mrs. Frank Dodson of Des MOines is
chairman of the Republican state wO-
mans committee and under her super
e.
vision an ambitious speaking campaign
will be planned to educate the. new vot-
crs in their duties.
The Republican and Democratic or
ganization schemes differ quite radi-
cally. The Republican women's orsa-
nization is an auxiliary to the mems
organization, duplicating it in every
particular, but separately organized.
There will be no separate Democratic
wOmen's organization. Under the
Democratic scheme there will be no sex
distinction, and party honOrs will be
equally divided among men and wo-
men. The women's work will he head
ed by Miss Anna b. Lawther of Du-
buque.
1t is probable that women and men
will be treated exactly alike at the
polls. There will be general registra-
ton prior to the election this fall at
which men and women will be register
ed indiscriminately. Women will vote
on the same ballots as men and their
votes will not be counted separately.

The gay young students come and go
Their laughing faces all alisht--
And all that makes their beauty
bright,
And all that makes their ardor glow,
How well, how we'll l know! !.
They do not count me of their kind;
My youth is where they cannot see,
Concealed behind maturity;
They do not know there is confined
A captive in my mind.
A girl that I have been ignores
The barrier of time. and smiles
Across it at their pleasant wiles,
Their buoyancy her own restores,
Her sympathy Outpours.
To every impulse, every aim
That stirs within them now, and
Their spirit moves her with thrill
OF passion that she cannot name
Oh, evermore the same.
Too shy to call. unknown, apart,
She watches where they pass along
And. dreaming, huns little song
Their cOmrade, hidden in my heart,
Who signs when they depart.
