RattlesnaEes Grow

Chicago, Nov. 9.-Ths oft-dehated
question Of whether rattlesnakss
grow wild in the vicinity OF Chicago

Eooklovers Arouse the -.
|. Ire of French Women

/ Paris, Nv. S.-As the women of
Paris recently have been beating the
men in competitions for places as Ii.
brarians,, discussion has arisen
over women's attitude toward books
Writers in general seem to. agree
that woman is the avowed enemy of
books. This view, which will seem
strange to Americans, is, accepted by
the French as a fact not necessary
to discuss. They seek only to show
why, and how" greatly woman is hos.
tile to books.
One of the principal publishers is
quoted as saying that in the retail
trade women constitute only one per
cent of buyers in France. Others di-
late upon the difficulty their men
friends have in keeping a library of
fine books and in adding to the col
lection. Mems love of books, and wo
mems dislike Of them, are cited as
having caused the breakup of many
homes. M. de Bersaucourt, author
and booklover, holds it is the duty of
bibliophile to remain a bachelor.
He cites the cases Of men who have
to buy books secretly to avoid out
breaks of wrath from their spouses,
and others who keep books hidden.
One Partisan booklover, says NJ. de
b. smuggles home purchases under
his coat or in his pocket, meanwhile,
disarming his wife by holding out
cake or candy to her at the front
door in order to gain time to slip
the volume on the shelf unnoticed.

Old Rites Attended Regents
Eaxsgement Ceremonie

Toxic, Nov. 8.--At the formal en-
gagement ceremonies of the Prince
Regent to Princess Nagako Kuni
which were held in front of the shrine
Of the Imperial Palace, Shinto rites
Of old Japan were renewed.
The Prince Regent, clad in yell
lowish-brown court dress and wear
ing "Drooping Cherry Crown" ON
the head, impaired the news of his
engagement to the spirits Of his an
estors. AS for all great events con
:erning the Imperial family or the
natiCn, Imperial messengers. were
.ispatched to the Ise Shrine where
he Mirror of the Sungoddess, an
cstyeHs Of the Imperial family, is
kept; to the mausolea of Emperor
..imEu, the first ruler of Japan and
The late Emperor Meiji at Mo-
lcyama, for the sole purpose of an
.ouncing the event to them officially
A representative of the Emperor
previously called at the Palace of
Prince KKuni, who had formerly ten
ed his consent and received the
customary presents of the Emperor
end Empress to the parents of the
iuture Crown Princess. These con-
sisted Of FIVE rolls of silk, caks of
snkc wine and a box containing twp
tai fish. This fish is an omen Of hap
mess and congratulatory present
m itself.
Princess Nagako also was decorat
y. with the First Class Order of tn,
Sacred Treasure and in the Hall oS

eived the Prince Regents betrothal
Gift, sword about foot long, very
simple but made by the most skill
ful sword maker OF the country and
decorated with the imperial crest.
From ancient times women of the
samurai class or the nobility have
owned short sword as symbol of
hastily and sign that they would
hcoSc death rather than disnonor.
The fift of this sword holds the same
significance ,as that Of the engage
ment ring in foreign lands.

Dear Sir:
Pleese let me thank through your
columns the people Of Union County
for their loyal support of the nomi-
nees of the Democratic, party at the
general election on November 2.
1t is very gratifying to receive such
loyal support.
| feel sure that there arr more than
mere historic and sentimental reasons
for the unanimity of Democratic con-
yictions in the South and in our par
ticular psrt of it. The policies Of the
Democratic party; both domestic and
International, are Of great economic
value to the people Of the South. Our
section, as the producer of cotton, the
greatest single factor in our interna-
tional trade, is deeply concerned about
the success: Of our foreign policy. The
isolation, the non-participation, and
the provincialism Of the Republican
party, combined with a, high protec.
tive tariff, have well-nigh killed out
our foreign trade and have therefore
wen-nigh; destroyed the foreign mar
ket for cotton. IL Democratic policies
Of sympathetic cooperation, and en-
lightened self-interest, with tariff
for revenue only, were prevailing to-
day so as to make it possible for the
foreign nations. to buy our cotton,
cotton would ,be selling. on the streets
Of the Southern towns very probably
at 40 cents per pound. ibis demon
strates very closely and intimately
the relations between the prosperity
Of the people Of the South and right
adjustment Of our foreign relations
The price Of cotton determines the
length Of schools, the pay of teachers
and preachers and the payment of
debts to doctors, business men and
bankers, the improvement of roads
and streets, and all of the factors that

Let us all unite for a glorious vie
torious fight in 1924!
Yours very respectfully,

Under protective tariff our country
is now facing this situation: We say
the European nations must pay us
what they have borrowed from us.
They cannot pay in money. When
they offer to pay in kind, trade with
us. they find that they cannot pay
the tariff and the principal. If we
could allow the nations that owe us
to pay US in merchandise there would
be some hope Of recovering the money
we have loaned them. To demand
payment. then hedge ourselves in with
barrier that precludes the possibil-
ity Of their paying is a situation that
is unjust
