REDUCING SURPLUS.

That nobody loves a fat man is
saying approved of tradition. There
fore. when recently, as the result of an
exhaustive survey. it was scientifically
determined that every ninth man in
Chicago is far too fat for comfort and
health, presumption was that there
would speedily be organized fat
mans reduction club in the Windy
city. But instead we have the expert
ment of a go days dieting and exer-
else reduction test for Chicago wom-
en-. The explanation is that there are
really more heavyweight women than
men in Chicago, but gallantry forbade
making that feature of the survey,
says Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
Among the peculiarities Of human
habit, custom. practice or what not,
all functions have their foundations
In food. II we receive we eat. If we
entertain visiting delegations we feed
them. Likewise distinguished digni-
tarieS and all sorts and conditions Of
conventions and conferences. We eat
and get fat; then we eat TO get lean.
nstance-the Fat Women's Reduc-
ton club of Chicago is depending
principally on dieting for taking off
the surplus which was accumulated
by too much diet But the process is
interesting and the outcome mat
ter of anxious observation by the fair
OF all the country. What with the
beer supply shut off and the free lunch
made obsolete, the fat men should be
able to simulate feminine sacrifice.

The unrestricted wholesale slaueh-
ter of many thousands of birds in our
own country has made 1t almost impos-
sible in some places for farmers to
grow fruit without careful spraying

the proper time or in a proper man.
ner. says Thrift Magazine. All such
expensive undertakings go to show
how disastrous 1t may prove for man
to disturb the wonderful balance which
we see in our natural surroundings.
The beautiful birds with their song
and cheer are an attractive addition
to our lawn and garden. For this
service we should rot begrudge them
the small amount of berries they eat.
which indeed is small pay for the in
sects they destroy, and the good work
they perform.

Alaska's loss of population In the
last decade. amounting to nearly 10
per cent. was probably due in large
part to the war. The flow of white
emigration across the continent was
completely checked and a place so far
off in the exnemities of our territorial
system as Alaska inevitably suffered q
reaction in its growth. The state of
Washington was similarly affected.
Alaska will pick up again when there
are more people to go around.

A league of women voters has
been formed representing all states,
whose chief aim is to protect the
motherhood and childhood of the
nation, thus verifying the theory
that women will always use their
power in politics TO further the in
terests of the home The league
also declares its intention TO bring
housewife methods into politics.

In recent dispatch from Argen-
tina it is stated that bin has been
introduced into the legislative body of
that country which. if it becomes a
law, will result in drafting great
many young men as farmers. 1t is
stated in the dispatch that although
compulsory military service is in force
in Argentina, the young men who actu-
ally go into the service are selected by
lot; also that there is some dissatis-
faction because of exemptions. IN
der the measure which is now pro-
posed, young men who do not go into
the army or navy will be requi"od TO
work on the farms of the country for
certain length of time. If this
should be done, the agricultural pro-
duction of Argentina will be consider
ably increased.

HARMER
PREDICTS EARLY
VOTE FOR WOMEN

State Senator Harvey w. Harmer. OF
Clarksburg W. Va. was registered at
the Mcclure hotel last night. having been
summoned to this city as witness In
the United States district court in the
case Of Catlett w. Bloyd. Both parties
TO the contention live in Moundsville
Senator Harmer is known rs the az
grcssivc leader of the suffrage forces
in the West Virginia senate and stated
that he Is fully confident that the wom-
en- Of the United States will vote at
the next presidential election. stating
that the thirty-sixth state will be in
soon probably during the next week.
This will be a new element In the
political field" said Senator Harmer'
and will tend to eliminate some OF the
elements that have for long lime DOM
mated politics. The voting OF the women
will also prove detrimental to some
candidates who arc at present In the
field"
Senator Harmer when asked his opin-
ion about the presidential timber that ls
now in the field, said.
Il don't think that any OF those VINO
are now spoken Of as being IN the lead
will be the candidate. I am personally
for Hiram Johnson and am decidedly
not for General Wood. But. AS / have
said. | do not think that either ono VIII
be nominated.
"My idea is that there Is a dark morse
in training for the nomina ton and we
will hear from him before long
