+UsURPNG STATE POWERS.

A Mrs. James Bennett Of Rich,
mond. Kentucky, is circulating a LITTLE
lcaflet relating to the suffrage
amendment. She holds hal this
amendment is a usurpation of state
rights, and that no state Legislature
can legally to ratify it if the
constitution of that state does no
contain a. provision for the enfran,
chisement OF women Her circular
readsras follows:
The ratification Of the woman
an suffrage amendment Of our
federal constitution by legisla-
lures Of states whose constitu-
tons confer a right to vote for
their state officers upon men
alone, is a usurpation Of a sov-
ereign power of the people OF
these states by their legislatures.
This q be shown 70 be true
in the following way The rati-
fication OF the woman suffrage
amendment by legislatures Of
three-fourths Of our states would
alter the constitution Of a state
that conEers the right to vote,
for its state officers upon men
alone, and make it confer this
right upon women.
The. people are the only pter-
son in a state who possess the
sovereign power TO alter the con-
stitution.
Therefore any action Of it's
legislature that helps to alter
the constitution Of the state is a
usurpaton OF a sovereign powers
OF its people.
call public attention to. this
matter, because I think that our
people ought to do something
that will retain for them the
soxereiyn power to alter the cons
stitution of our states.

AREAS BELOW SEA LEVEL

All the continents possibly, except
South America, include areas of dry
land that lie below sea level &C.
cording To the United States Geologi-
cal Survey Department of the Inter-
ior, the lowest point in North Ameri-
ca is one in Death Valley, Calf, that
lies 276 feet below sea level, but this
depression IS slight compared to the
basin of the Dead Sea, in Palestine,
Asia, where the lowest point on dry
land is 1900 feet below sea level.
The lowest point in Africa is one in
the Desert of Sahara that lies about
$50 feet below sea level. The Saba
IA as a whole stands above sea icvel
although until recently the greater
part of it was supposed to lie below
sea level. The lowest point in Eu-
rope at present known is one on the
shores of the Caspian Sea that lies
Sc fe,, below sea level The lowest
point ic australia is one al Lake Tor
rens that lies about 20 feet below
sea level.

INTERSTATE TOWNS.

There is an old story that many OF
the names of towns, sleeping cars
ETC., were devised by a maniac who
had a passion for writing letters on
the walls of his cell in meaningless
combinations. Travellers who at
tempt to pronounce some of the diff
ficult names they see on cars are
very much inclined to believe this
story.
The appropriate names for new
towns are often as hard to select ls
car names and some of those selected
are apparently as meaningless and
are as difficult to pronounce. For
many of them, however, there is a
reason. Many towns that lie partly
or close to the State line, have fine
sounding and distinctive names that
are made up of parts of the names
of the two States. The following are
names of this kind that appear on
maps issued by the United States
Geological Survey of the Department
of the Interior:
Arizmo, Arizona-New Mexico.
lCalada, California-Nevada.
Calexico, California Mexico.
(In the Mexican half of the town
the order is reversed and it is called
Mexicali)
Calneva, Nevada.

Calzona, California, Arizona.

Coluta, Colorado Utah.
Delmar, Deleware-Maryland.

Sylmar, Pennsylvania-Maryl
Texarkana, Texas Arkansas.
Texico, Texas-New Mexico.
Texla, Texas-Louisiana

In Texarkana, which is one of the
largest towns on the list, the post Of

A woman IS fondest hope is to stay
young. She often resorts TO paints,
powders and cosmetics to hide her
years. Some women pay large sums to
so.called "Beauty Doctors" in the be-
lief that money will buy youth. Others
wear girlish dresses, thinking they can
fool the world about their age. But
no one is deceived. The more you try
to hide your age, the more it shows.
There is but one thing that holds old
age back, and that is health. Sickness
and weakness bring old age early in
life. DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
tion is a building-up medicine for
women. 1t makes them healthy and
strong when they suffer from women's
troubles. 1t keeps them looking young
by keeping them well. 1t is woman 8
