Question Box, The Atlanta Tr1-Week
ly Journal, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Folks: Here's an interesting
question that has just come in. do
you think that the women will ever
take the lively interest in voting
that men take
My honest answer is that they
will take a much livelier interest in
voting, for by voting they realize
that they can express most force
fully app wal or protest on some
question pertaining to the welfare
Of their community.
Many men take such an interest
in voting, but many more take a
livelier, interest in politics as the
word is used today. Many women
were either opposed to woman's suf-
frage. or simply not interested in
tn, issue, but ow that it has be-
come a law, it is no longer u matter
Of our preference, but to honestly
study the questions of the day. and
make the effort to put men and
women into office who will have the
welfare Of the country and not the
personal advancement to heart, to
register, to pay our taxes when due
and to vote when an election is held
is our duty.
Women are deeply interested in
matters Of education, sanitation and
all things pertaining to the better
ment of women and children. For
this reason say they will take a
livelier interest in voting.
This wasn't intended to bring
forth a suffrage talk, but as I am a
woman and as the question was put
by a ma. / felt that must answer
it in this way. Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.
Pocahuntas: Any number Of girls
have written me complaining of the
same trouble with their complex
ions. Now you know I do not give
prescriptions in this department,
but I will tell you a few things that
you may do to prevent the black
heads and bumps. First, do not eat
too much greasy and friend food.
Eat more green things and less
meat. Do not pinch and squeeze
the bumps. Apply warm water to
the face and when it is thoroughly
soft, gently remove the blackheads
with a clean end of a hairpin. This
must be done with care, not bruis-
ing the skin, for that causes sores,
and the last stage is worse than the
first. Again put warm clothes to
the fac, after that cold. Keep up
this treatment for while and you
will find your complexion better. Do
not use rouge and be very careful
to have whatever face powder you
use of the purest.
You do seem a trif1e thin for your
height. Try my remedy, two tea
spoons Of condensed milk in a cup
of hot water between breakfast and
dinner if possible, otherwise at
breakfast, and cup on retiring.
For your age and height I should
think dresses should be about ~ to
ID inches from the ground.
Ossie: If your eyes are infamed
you should see a doctor. In the
eantime bathe the eyes in a solu-
ton of boracic acid. Your druggist
can give it to you. This is fine for
inf1amed and tired eyes, but does not
take the place of an occulist. Your
eyes are one of your most precious
possessions; take care of them and
do not read and study in a poor
light, or with the light in your eyes.
