WOMEN STILL D0WNTRODDEN
Management Won't Let the Oppressed
Creatures Even Smoke in This
Office Building.

Poor woman She gained the right
to vote, to smoke, to go to boxing
matches, to participate in athletics, to
enter business-in fact, she's on par
with man in every field of activity,
says the New York Sun and Globe.
And not on an equal footing with
man, but surprising him in many
things, she insists.
But, alas In one instance at least
she is doomed to defeat. The scene
is downtown Office, where smoking
is prohibited. Yes stree, not even
the manager can use his favorite
weed while sitting at his desk, but
must join the office boy and lowly
salesman out in the corridor when he
desires to smoke.
Not so for milady, who has just as
much work and responsibility as at
least half of the office force. She
likes a drag" occasionally, too, but
where can she have it? The rule
denies her the privilege of deriving
inspiration from the weed while she
types, and only the men occupy the
hallway and in the lounging room the
matrun absolutely refuses the girls the
right to smoke. Poor girl, what goot
do women's rights do her?

Few Aliens in New Zealand.

At present in New Zealand less than
one-half of l per cent of the popula-
tion consists of aliens, according to g
recent report to the Department of
Commerce from Vice Consul John E.
Moran. Wellington. OF the 5,44C
aliens. more than four-fifths remained
in North island, where climatic condi-
tons We're more to their liking. The
majority of the Syrians, centered in
Dunedin, are merchants and manufac-
turers Of clothing, while the Indians
follow no particular occupation. OF
the 3,27O Chinese registered, 81 per
cent are merchants. 80 per cent market
gardeners and u per cent launderers.
The aim of the New Zealand govern.
ment is to enforce the immigration re-
striction act and prevent as far as
possible an undue increase over the
present percentage of any aliens.

MRS. F0LAR BEAR HIBERNATES
Her Mate Roams Abroad and
Feeds Himself.

The arctic bear is not an hibernatiny
animal, for 1t is only the female that
sleeps through the winter. writes Ju-
lian w. Biby. in his book. "Among Un-
known Eskimo" says the Detroit
News. The pair hunt together until
the approach of winter, when the fe-
male, fat and in the pink of condition
after the summer months of good feed
ing. searches for suitable place in
which to retire and bear the cubs.
She generally chooses sheltered
pot on land. where the snow lies
deeply drifted. The two partners
scratch out comfortable cave in this.
and the female then enters and rolls
herself up to sleep.
The male bear blocks up the en-
trance. and the next fall or drift Of
snow effectively completes his task,
and obliterates all traces of the ami
mails activities. Then he takes him
self Off to roam about at his own sweet
will, and attend to nobOdy's appetite
but his own for the next few months,
returning to the female only In the
spring, when she emerges from her
hiding place, gaunt and hungry. and
accompanied by her cubs.

ELECTRICITY TO AID CROPS
Scientific Gardening Produces Two
Batches Of Lettuce to One by
Daylight.

Larger and better crops of vegetables
can be produced with the aid of cleo
trio lights, says a recent report of the
International Institute of Agriculture,
which describes experiments made in
forcing lettuce for the market
Five electric lamps were so ar
ranged over plot of lettuce as to DIFF
fuse uniform light, the lamps being
turned on daily for about six hours,
beginning at dusk. After 10 days the
lettuce so treated had two and a half
times as many fresh leaves as other
heads which had been planted at the
same time but which had not been
exposed to the electric light. The
heads Of forced lettuce were described
in the report MS larger and firmer and
they realized better prices when sold.
Plants exposed only to daylight re-
quired from four to five weeks, or
double the time. to reach this develop
ment, so that, with the use of electric
light, two crops of lettuce could be
raised in the time required to raise
one under ordinary conditions.
After seven weeks of electrical H.
Elimination comparison made be-
tween the illuminated" plants and a
similar number of plants not illumi-
mated showed 30 per cent advantage
in weight in favor Of the former

ANCESTOR OF GARDEN GREENS
Sea Cabbage a Weed That Grows
Wild Near Dover and Some
times Is Eaten.

If you are walking on the chalk
cliffs near Dover you may notice a
tall weed with pale yellow flowers
which begins to bloom in May and con-
tinues to do so right through the sum-
mer. 1t grows about two feet high
and has leaves of deep green tinged
with yellow and purple.
This homely looking plant is the
sea cabbage, and is actually the ances-
tor of all our garden greens, cabbages,
cauliflower, broccoli and the various
kales. 1t is, or was, very common on
the Dover cliffs and is sometimes col
lected and the leaves stripped Off and
boiled.
Many of the vegetables we cultivate
in our gardens come from the coast,
where their ancestors still grow Wild
says London Tit-Bits. The sea beet
grows in many places on the Shore
and has green blossoms and thick
wavy leaves. But the thick, red,
fleshy root has been obtained only by
centuries of cultivation.
Sea kale is purely a maritime plant,
and this is proved by the fact that a
little salt-not too much-is an excel
lent fertilizer for the cultivated va
riety.
Celery grows wild on marshy ground
on the shores of saltwater estuaries
and asparagus is native of similar
land. Both these, when grown in gar
dens, can be stimulated with little
salt.
The sea pea is not common plant,
but may be found in places growing
on sunny banks little above high
tide mark. 1t has butterfly shaped
blooms and its pods contain peas
which, If small, are quite pleasant to
the taste.

SOME DEALERS THINK
WAR HAS STARTED

1t happened when we bought out
the big stock of Doll Bros. Smith
The retailers became pane stricken
and attempted to drive us out of busi-
mess by making remarks and false
.tatements to the public to hurt our
business. So far as we are concerned,
there is no war. Local dealers are not
used to seeing goods sold so close, and
we are.
We are at peace with all the world,
including customers and competitors,
and will continue in the same good
humor.
DON'T KNOCK. There is room for
all of us. We have confidence in
Glenwood Springs and the state Of
Colorado, and believe that Glenwood
will show tremendous increase In
prosperity and population in the next
few years, that there will be more
stores in Glcnwoodl than there are to-
day, and that they will be just as
prosperous or more so. So bury the

The Twins Sat Down to Think.
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

, Sugar-Plum Land was full Of good
things. The road was made of fudge.
the stones were rOck-candy. the
fences were taffy-bars. and the trees
were stick-candy with all sorts of fruit
on them.
One tree had ice cream cones on it,
another tree grew nothing but sun
daes-all sort of sundaeS, hot fudge
sundaes, marshmallow sundaeS. maple
nut sundaes, tutti-frutti sundaes. Mex
lean sundaes. battleship sundaes, ba-
nana-split sundaes, strawberry sun
daes and every other kind of sundaes
that ever gave a boy or girl indi-
gestion.
Another tree grew peanuts in striped
paper-bags, another popcorn balls
done up in red tissue paper. Another
tree grew ice cream sodas with two
straws in each, while still another
tree bore boxes of cracker jack and
glasses of pink lemonade.
On their way TO the Cut-0ut Lady's
house. Nancy and Nick got hungry.
~What shall we have, Nick" said
Nancy. "An ice cream cone, a sun
dae, or ball Of popcorn"

popcorn :" said Nick.
So he climbed up the popcorn tree
and broke off two nice round red
tissuc-paper balls. The popcorn was
fresh and sticky and disappeared
down two little red threats like
magic.
Now, I'm thirsty" said Nancy.
Then we'll have some soda :" said
Nick. Nancy took vanilla and Nick
took raspberry-and that was thai.
"Now I'm hungry again" said
Nick.
som L." declared Nancy.
So they had a sundae apiece with
10 things on it.
And then. being thirsty again, they
had some pop.
Now let's go on" said Nick. YES,
let's" said Nancy looking little pale.
But what do you think? They had
lost their way. The sign on the roal
pointed to Castor Land one way and
to Plaster Land the other way.
Wasn't it dreadful!
The Twins sat down to think what
it would be best to do.
