.HAREM CALLED HOME OF
 0LD-TlME VIRTUES
Turkish Woman Plays American Women As Childless Slaves of
 Store and Theatre.
(The Associated oress)


 Angora, Sept. 16.-The seclusion of the harem is best adapted to wom- ans nature and it is best for the so- cial order that she should be there," declared Muf1de Ferid Hanem, the Nationalist novelist and beautiful wife of Ahmed Ferid Bey, ex-Ninister of Finances, to the correspondent in an interview. fThe harem grew out or the intelligent understanding of the marriage relation. It represents the wisdom of the East.
 q am reformed woman's rights advocate" she continued. T used to American and European woman, but now I believe the mistress of the harem is a superior product to the spendthrift Russian woman, the sen fish woman and the calculating, self centered American woman.
 ''To these women. woman's rights means the right to spend money on childless. They live for the store and the theater. They are responsible for a good deal of factory labor expended in useless directions. They won't work with their hands to make their clothes, their minds are filled with fashions novels, and candies.
 "Men have become their slaves, and you call this western civilization. We Turkish women had out heads turn ed by the effort to become like these civilized women, and in doing so some of us have lost our sterling old-fash- toned qualities and become a costly, vain, destructive creature like our sisters of the West
 we Nationalists are in favor o1 abolishing the theory of polygamy, though in fact it has long since ceas- ed as an institution But we are sure woman's place the home, and the best way to keep her there is the harem. which gives her much liberty but not license. We are good house vtvss, we wear more or less a uni form gown and veil, in the streets which prevents us being victims to | fashion, and at home, if we do no l wish to see our husbands we are no obliged to do so. Surely that Is hb- erty enough"

This portion of The Times page is the only place where we can talk to the public. In this space our aim is to tell the truth about the House of Read. It will never be a f1amboy- ant speech in big type. That would hardly be Read style and it costs too much for what if comes to. In our long experience we have found that service and reliability are the things to bank on. Staple goods, those things people always need, we have in stock Quality is another item about which we arc particular. It is not pos sible to offer high quality at a bargain price very
 often. Our endeavor is to provide patrons with what they need at fair prices. Value for money received.

WHAT ST. PAUL REALLY SAID

the Great Apostle.

Men translated the Bible-and

dlvulged by Miss X. Raleigh to the
British WOmen's Freedom league.
The apostles remarks about women,
she said, were badly twisted In trans
latlon, and 1t could be proved by the
removal of few dots md commas,
that st. Paul did not: Forbid women
to preach; command them to obey
their husbands; insist that forever and
aye, whatever the fashion Of the coun-

say that they should never wear jewell

Washington, July 19.-Oll went on
the Fordney tariff free list by House
vote Of more than two to one. a
Long staple cotton, on the free list
In the ways and means committee
draft, was put on the dutiable list at
10 per cent ad valorem, with members
In doubt as to what compensatory
rates on all cotton goods would be
considered necessary by reason Of the
imposition Of tax on the raw
product.
The real flare-up was over the oil
schedule. 1t broke at the outset Of the
session after Chairman Fordney had
presented letter from President Har-
ding opposing the tax and suggesting
rather bargaining provision to be
placed In his hands to guard against
the levy Of duties against us or the
imposition by other nations Of export
tariffs which are designed to hinder
the facilitation of trade"
The first vote on the contested oil
amendment came after three and a
half hours Of debate.
Republicans rejected, by a straight
party vote, proposal by Represen-
tative Garrett, Tennessee Democratic
leader, to limit debate that the bill
might be taken up for amendment un-
der the ordinary five-minute rule.
Then, after debate, the first test
was on an amendment by Representa-
tive Carter, Democrat, Oklahoma, to
cut the committee rates on crude oil
from 35 to 25 cents and fuel oil from
25 to 20 cents barrel.
The Carter proposal won, 143 to Al.
Democrats supported 1t solldly on
the ground that In event the free oil
amentment offered by Representative
Treadway, Massac chusetts, Republican
member Of the ways and means COM
mttee, should be defeated, they could
help to obtain lower duty than fixed
In the bill.
But there never was any doubt Of
the temper Of the House on the oil
question.
The Treadway proposition was
adopted with votes to spare-187 to
79-on q stand-up count but Chair
man Fordney, on the losing side, de-
manded tellers. The count was 1875
to &c.
About half the Republican member
ship Of the committee, which imposed
the tax after the bill had been printed,
and after the duty earlier had been
rejected, joined Republican insurgents

dium grades OF cows commanded a
price range from S6.25 to s7.75. Tho
stocker department was unchanged at
quotations ranging from $500 to $3.50.
Trading was limited In the hog
