house Of representatives today on
the O'Connor beer bill, which would
provide for legalizing manufacture
OF the 2.75 per cent beverage and

How the Indiana congressman
will vote on this measure will give
an idea of their chances in the fall
election, the May primary having
indicated a great wet trend.

vote for the measure. They are

So, If you're an armchair trav-

Ten Thousand Leagues Over the
Sea-" by william Albert Robinson.
Mr.. Robinson is a young man
who found himself with $1,000 to
spare. This, by the way, was some
three years ago. So, for $4,000, he
bought thirty-two-foot ketch-
rugged yacht, and he put the rest
aside for travelling expenses, and he
set out to see the world.
First he sailed to Bermuda. Then,
hiring a Bermudan to act as crew,
he dropped down to Panama.
Thence he sailed to Galapagos,
where he found huge lizards that
spat at him. and where he caught
honey bear for a pet.
Then he sailed for Tahiti. His
crew left him and he hired a Ia
hitian (male) to take his place
He loafed about the South Sea
islands for a long time, finding
among other odd characters-a
bearded old reprobate who lived on
a lonely island, all by himself ex-
cept for a harem of two dozen
South Sea maidens.
Then Mr.. Robinson sailed for the
Indian ocean, slipped up the Red
Sea, got captured by pirates three
times, passed through the Mediter-
ranean, and finally made his way
home via the Atlantic.
He has written a gorgeous book
about it all. 1t is strongly recolG-
mended to all armchair voyagers.

1898 against 10,645 cast for his
only adversary.
Two things saved Louis from
defeat. First, the organization
slated him in preference to his OPP
ponent because Of his past services;
and, second, he also came out for a
referendum on prohibition on the
eve OF the primary.
The question is, can Ludlow read
the writing on the wall?
Larrabee represented the old
Sixth district, which was agricul-
tural and dry. Believing in the
theory that a representative should
represent his constituents, he voted
against the Beck-Linthicum meas
ure.
In the primary he ran for the
nomination in the new Eleventh.
His three wet opponents received
approximately 10000 votes to the
II ,470 cast for him.
q
To any intelligent person that
would mean that Larrabee is rep
resenting a district that is better
than 2 to l wet.
II is a mandate from his con-
stituents, and so he has announced
that he will vote for the beer bill.
II Larrabee we're representing the
old Sixth. he perhaps could vote dry
with good conscience. but as the
congressman from a wet. district his
duty is plain.
And. after all. he has an excel
lent answer to those carping critics
who attack him for inconsistency,
for, as Emerson has written:
"A foolish consistency is the hob
goblin OF little minds. adored by
little statesmen" which is an am
plification Of Cicero's doctrine that
NO wCll-informed person has de-
clared a change Of opinion to be

For six weeks last Summer she lived

an unusual opportunity to do some writ

victions as to family and home.
Good citizenship begins like charity
at home" she affirmed with great
earnestness. Il feel that If woman
is an interested mother she will realize
the truth of this, and the Importance
of it, too. Each child should be brought
up with the best ideals held before him
and the best thoughts should be put
into his mind.
"As that child reaches manhood. he
will, in all probability, be attracted to
others with similar ideals he will prcb-
ably marry some one of this type, and
when his child is born he in turn will
begin the process of good training.
AT least, this Is a sound philosophy,
and one which, If worked out would,
believe, help to raise the standards of
citizenship" she averred

Should a woman who Is married
maintain professional activity in some
subject outside her home?"
Mrs. Lamont did not hesitate when
this question was put to her.
"A woman's first duties" she replied,
"are to care for her husband, home and
family. These are the things she as
sumes when she marries. If after they
are cared for she still has time left, I
think it is all right for her to have a
professional outside interest"
Throughout all of Mrs. Lannon'S
words had run the theme in which she
is chiefly interested - weaving a real
home. To the interested observer there
is ample evidence that her task is
bearing fruit. But she is not resting
on the laurelS-llfe is going on and as
