were fully as earnest in their

the fighting spirit in trying to en-

The notes tell Of early skirmishes
Of prohibitionists of that day, who
were treated with CONTEMPT and

Although the letters fail to reveal
the total membership of the society,
one dated August IL, 1905, showed
that three kept their vows.
In an early letter Mr.. Ely sug-
gested that the cooperation Of
school teachers be sought in the
movement, saying: "There would
be an end of balls, gambling,
discriminating, ETC., and the money
now wasted in these wicked vanitics
would be laid out in the purchase
OF useful books and the time spent

by the internal heat of the globe. This
suggestion is interesting, as noted
scientist recently put forward the idea
that petroleum may have been formed
from vast beds of primaeval seaweed,
buried by geological changes, and dis
titled by pressure and heat.
MANY THEORIES.
A third suggestion was that petrol
cum is the bitumen Of anthracite coal
extracted from 1t by heat. But the
idea of any connection between coal
and earth oil has long ago been aband-
oncd, because oil has been found in
a hundred places where coal does not
exist and has never existed. On the
other hand there is no doubt about
the strong likeness between petroleum
and the crude oil distilled from GER
tain sorts of coal.
Oils uses are en- Hess and curious.

A Turkish woman has told the

a novel recently published in New Yors

The author, Halide Edib Hanourn,
was the first Turk to graduate from

wrote the first Turkish novels and lost
her good name because she was i'm
moral enough to plead for the freeing
of women, immodest enough to appear
in public, indecent enough to be
liberal in politics.
She worked with the Red Crescent,
which is the Red Cross of Turkey. She

upon the heather Turks by the Chris

practiced upon the Turkish revolu-

seFSOULD we do without oil?" asks
~ an ENGLISH magazine, and then
continues: Sir Richard Redmayne
recently quoted an expert estimate to
the effect that the supply of oil in
American was strictly limited to II
years.
His own opinion, he added, was
that the oil in the United States would
be exhausted in % years, and the
worlds supply in so to 100 years"
Think for a moment what this
means! No fuel for motors, no kero-
sene for lamps, no heavy oil to drive
big slips or gas engines.
Yet it is only &C years since the first
bore hole through which oil arose to
the surface was made in America.
Oil, of course, had been known for
a long time before that. The Mound
builders, who inhabited North Amer
lea long before the Red Indians came
across from Asia via Boring Straits,
not only collected oil from surface
seeDages. but dug deep holes or wells
in order to secure the fluid.
OIL is MYSTERY.
No one knows how petroleum came
into being. Ask n scientist, and he
will tell you that 1t is probably OF
vegetable origin and the product of
distillation. But that does not go very
far.
When oil was first discovered in the
United States learned folk were very
anxious to discover its origin. Look
ing up periodicals Of the time, you
find many curious answers to the
question. "what is petroleum.
One writer stat, that, while the
earth was still in an incandescent con-
dition, asphaltum was volataliscd-
that =, turned into vapor-and in that
form hung over the globe. Then. when
the world began to cool. the asphaltum
slowly condensed and descended. But
this is rather begging the question; 1t
does not explain the origin Of the as
phaltum.
Another theory was that petroleum

TIDE OF MODERNISM.
As Admiral Bristol pointed out,
Renal Pasha and his wife had had
no children and they agreed to sepa-
rate as soon as their political ideals
drifted apart. Latte Hanoum spoke
of it with a certain regret and lik-
ened herself and her husband to
Josephine and Napoleon.
Turkey has gone in for modernism
with a vengeance. There is fero-
cious housekeeping there.

more or less compelled to throw aside

signs Of women's awakening. People
who talk about the good old divorce
less times when homes were realms
of happiness are rudely answered by
the fact that the first use women
make of liberty is to ask for easy
divorce.
When a bill was passed in Uruguay

demand one. When Mustapha Renal,

DENOUNCED BY PRIESTS.
The Moslem priests, of course, de-
nounced the women as heather and
approved their punishment; for as
Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady
Stanton never tired of saying, the
cloth as a class has always been the
worst enemy OF womcn's liberty.
In other Asiatic countries, in Jap

But nowhere perhaps has so pro-
