CHINESE GODDESS OF MERCY
Legend Popular in the Yellow Land
Because II illustrates Quality
of FiliaI Piety.

The Chinese tell an interesting story
relating TO their Goddess Of Mercy,
who was the third daughter OF the
king Mas Tsong Her two elder sis
tiers were married early, and when
her turn came the third refused 10
merry, having already given up the
temporal pleasures and devoted her
entire devotion to preparation for the
next life. The king then sent his
daughter TO the temple, where she
was asked TO draw water and cook
dinner for 500 monks. But this
seemed 10 be an easy task. for when
she went To cook, she found every
thing ready for her, dragon being
sent from heaven 10 help her.
The king was angered and ordered
the temple TO be burned but the prin-
cess spat blood into heaven and a
new temple fell down 10 earth. THIS
angered the king still more and ne
ordered his daughter killed and that
her body be eaten by the tigers. As
time went on, the king was afflicted
with leprosy, none of the doctors be-
ing able to cure him. A beggar monk
later came and told the king he could
cure him. Upon being given trial
the monk said that the disease could
only be cured by the ash of the
burned hand and eye of person who
was on a certain mountain.
When the desired hand and eye was
finally found, the queen recognized
them as her daughters. The king was
cured by the ashes of this hand ana
eve, which made the people honor the
name of the princess as the Goddess
of Mercy" for her untold sufferings
and her filial piety TO her cruel father

The vagaries of the mythical wealth
or clerk" are not, in the opinion OF
y. w. Homer, writing in Meteorology,
so Indispensable as is generally
supposed. He maintains that the
following rules are founded on facts
although he withholds the main fact
TO which part of the world do they
amply: IF rain commences before day
light, it viii hold up before a. M;
If II begins about noon, it will con-
time through the afternoon; IL dt
commences after p. M, it will rain
the next day; if it clears off in the
night 1t will rain the next day; If the
wind is from the northwest or south
west. the storm will be short; if from
the northeast, it will be hard one;
e from the northwest, a cold one, and
from the southwest, n warm one. II
II ceases after Il M. it will rain next
day: il it ceases before II M, it viii
be clear next day. If it begins about
s D. M, 1T will rain Though the night.
II raining between 8 and 8 a. M, IT
will go on till noon, and If not then
ceasing. will go on till evening"

HAVE RULEs AND OBEY THEM
system That Will Do Away With a
Tremendous Number of Avoid
able Accidents.

It is economical TO have rules, ana
IL is economy to obey them.
A tremendous number of accidents
result from the breaking of rules.
Sometimes the rules are not laws,
laid down In black and white and en-
forced by law, but they are rules, Just
the same. Many motor accidents come
because of speeding, driving on the
wrong side of the read, disobeying
traffic regulations in the city streets.
Many accidents by. pedestrians ocSur
because they don't stay on the side
walks and when they must cross the
streets they don't do so at the cross
ings. Many fires start because cans
of gasoline are stored in the linen
closet, when we know it should not,
according to the terms of our lease,
be bought in large. quantities. or kero-
sene is used carelessly about iire,
in spite of cautions from the fire de-
partment.
SO it goes. Many of the Ills of
mankind result from a disobeying OF
rules.
This attitude in adults Is much like
disobedience in children-and the re-
suits are much the same, for punish
ment In some form is very likely TO
come.

Mental Atmosphere.

Take time to study your own tastes.
your own desires, and find out what
you really react to pleasurably, and
why; then by the simple process OF
selection and elimination you can
gradually evolve the right atmosphere
for your present condition. 1t VIII

But do not try to impose the results
of your experiments on someone else,
for what might rest and inspire you,
with your individual interests and am
billions, might irritate someone else

large part that previous association
plays In the Interpretation of any sense

objects, each individual becomes a law

declares that all possessors OF the
elective franchise in Maryland
"shall'be entitled to vote :. -. /
at all elections hereafter 10 be /
held in this State" Ratification
Of the Nineteenth Amendment
by three-fourths Of the states
would expunge the word male,
AS the word white had al
ready been expunged by the Fiji
teenth Amendment,-from the
first Article OF the Constitution.
In the year 1910, Article IA OF
the original State Constitution OF
1776 was amended by ratification
Of the General Assembly giving
every free white male citizen"
with the qualifications of age and
residence, "A right OF suffrage"
bv ballot for electors Of presi-
dent and vice-president Of the
United States for representa-
tives in Congress and the limited
number OF public officers chosen
century and a decade ago in
Maryland by popular election.
Forty years later the Constitu-
ton OF 1851 included in its sec
ton on elective franchise all
elections hereafter to be held"
and in the Constitution of 1864
call elections hereafter held in
this State" The anti-bribery
clause in both Constitutions cop
led in all essentials in the pres
ent Constitution. mentions, spe-
officially. offenses in the choos-
ing of presidential electors.
No question has been raised by
the debates of the three consti-
tutional conyentions over the
certainty Of the exercise once for
all by the Maryland Legislature
Of its power derived from the
Federal Constitution to direct
how presidential electors shall be
chosen; nor over the wisdom OF
embodying in the organic law
the language of Amendment
Fourteen to the Constitution OF
l17G. In 1864, Oliver Miller, later
Chief Judge of this Circuit and
pre-eminent among Maryland
jurists. arguing against the
method brought forward by the
majority for taking the soldier
vote. declared that the soldier
being under martial law and
obliged to perform the duties his
superior imposed, would merely
express" in presidential elections
in the field during war times,
the opinion his commanding of
6cer may say he shall express"
Therefore, while 1t seems rea-
sonably certain that it will not
be necessary for Maryland to
pass any legislation at this time
expressly providing the election
machinery for women's suffrage
in the event of the adoption OF
the Nineteenth Amendment,
those most directly interested in
the campaign have decided to
take no chances in this respect,
and have introduced at the pres
ent session bin safeguarding
this point.

Delaware having decislVely re-
iected the Susan b. Anthony
Il
amendment to the Federal Con-
stitution, the hopes and expecta-
tons Of the suffragists are turn
ing 10 four other states from
which TO make up the number re-
quired for adoption Of the pro-
posed Nineteenth Amendment, in
time 10 permit, women through
out the country to vote in the
presidential elections this Fall.
If special sessions can be secured
in Vermont and Connecticut, the
amendment will be submitted
there; North Carolina and Louis
lana will have legislative sessions
in the early summer.
An interesting phase of the
campaign for women's suffrage
is reported from Kentucky,
where Governor Morrow has
just signed a bill passed by the
Legislature giving assurance
that the women of that State
may vote in the presidential cleo
ton at separate polling places. in
the event that only males are
able to vote for congressman and
the. successor to Senator Beck
ham
The question has been raised
whether, with women's enfran-
chisement in pursuance of the
adoption of the Susan b. An
thony amendment. it is compe-
tent or. necessary for the General
Assembly of Maryland to spe-
cially provide. as in Kentucky,
for taking the ballots OF the
women voters. The best consid-
cred answer to this question
seems to be in the negative.
Three classes of federal officers
are selected by the voters of the
states under the Constitution Of
the United States.
Cd. Representatives in Con
Congress;
CD. Senator's in Congress.
y 6. Electors OF President and
Vice-President.
In the case of classes one and.
two. the electors (voters) in each
state shall have the qualifications
requisite for electors (voters) of
the most numerous branch of the
state legislature In the case of
class three, power is given the
legislatures of the different states
to prescribe how they shall be
chosen.
Judge Humphreys, in a recent
opinion on the constitutionality
of the Kentucky statute. holds
that the Federal Constitution
(Artiole . gives free hand to
the legislatures OF the various
states" as to electors. while pre-
scribing the exact manner in
which senators and congressman
shall be elected in the states.

ture long ago surrendered THE
