THS-‘MO DS a A Suffrage Carnival. Woman suffragists in New York are planning a carnival week, to end with a great parade and jubilee, early in November, with the assistance of the Men’s League for Woman Suffrage. Large delegations are expected to take part from every State in which the suffrage movement is under way, as well as from the States that have decided for suf- frage. The visiting delegations will swell the parade, which, no doubt, if all goes well, will be the most impressive and interesting de- monstration of the kind ever held in this country. National Guard officers throughout the State will be asked to take part in the event, either as citizens or sol- diers, and special features during the week will add a great variety of in- terest to the occa- sion. The parade will include illuminated floats, and thousands of marchers will wear costumes depicting workers in all walks of life. At the head of the pro- cession will march one hundred college girls in Grecian costumes. Battalions of toilers will follow, with banners of their trades. There also will be a divi- THE WOMAN POLITICIAN sion of two hundred and fifty automo- biles, each containing a speaker who will talk on the subject of suffrage for’ women at different points on the line of march, The votes-for-women advocates were in evidence at all the late conventions. A Cardinal's Opinion. Cardinal Gibbons, in St. Louis, other day, declared that in his opi: “equal suffrage would tend toward in- creasing divorce, which is a social blot on the United States and the greatest evil of the day.’’ This is a strong state- are thoroughly hygienic and healthful to the most delicate. skin : ERILIZED by immersing in boiling water SHOULD BE “A GOOD MIXER." ICH OMA I ment. The cardinal’s opinion of divorce as ‘‘the greatest evil of the day’’ may be questioned, in the face of other great evils, and his opinion of woman is by no means exalted, apparently. In fact, it seems to relate to that opinion of woman which for ages resulted in her practical bondage, and which in a jesser degree of subordination is the opinion of the church which the learned prelate rep- resents. ‘‘If woman had equal political rights with man,’’ the cardinal con- tinues, ‘‘there is a probability that on the slightest provo- cation she would seek divorce.’’ What authority, beyond the opinion of women he appar- ently holds, has the cardinal for this statement? And in the circumstances, should his opinion be accepted at a greater value than the opinion of an ordinary man? There are’ thou- sands of home-lov- ing women, no doubt, who aspire to equal rights with their husbands and sons, and whose life tendencies would in no man- ner be changed for the worse by the right to vote. On the contrary, their whole viewpoint would probably be broadened, to the betterment of all about them and government itself. uae “The Crowning Attribute of Lovely Woman is Cleanliness” A woman's personal satisfaction in looking charming and dainty is doubled when she knows everything about her is exquisitely clean.
