And the next best food from infancy to old age is DR. BRUSH’S KUMYSS (Continued from second preceding page) one of those persons, we are beginning to hear about, who are willing to stand for suffrage but can’t stand the suffragists? Again we rise to a point of information. Which? What the Suffs Unconsciously Proved WHEN the suffs celebrated with great gusto the conversion of a woman at the head of a large insurance order, because—as they spared no pains to make plain—she had proved that she could wisely invest ten million dollars—did they not help forge a neat little argument to show that the taint of commercialism knows no sex line? How a Senator Achieved “Preparedness” e not far away a woman suffrage bill passed with zip and Lovely!” I hear you say, “as showing how solons are coming in votes for women. But why mention it as woman suffrage bills are passing with like momentum in legislatures all over the country?” It was lovely. But it was also unique because it showed that men fall in line and vote for suffrage when they don’t beli nit. The press report indicated that to speak against woman suffrage in these days is considered heroic enough without being required also to vote against it. Other days and other legislatures have staged perfervid anti-suffrage but in those days and those legislatures a speech against was fol- yy a vote against as the night follows the day But on this occasion the speech and the vote “paired,” as one says, in order that the result might be ‘‘neutral,’”’ as one also says. In short, looking the onsweep of the suffrage movement squarely in the face, the best modus vivendi an astute political leader could devise consisted in a speech against and a vote for. Then could his weary head seck his pillow knowing that whatever emer- gency might arise it would find him in a ¢ of complete “ preparedne: If he were besieged by anti-suffragists, he would refer them to his speech. If women as voters proved the near and sure thing that politicians were be- ginning to fear, there was the record of his vote by means of which he could convince future women constituents that he had been always for them.

DAGGY, RST LEY A By-Product of the War MEMBER of the weaker sex—a sex celebrated in song and oratory as | Petrovna Habich, returned to her home in Russia still able to stand alone | too feeble to stand up under the burden of self-government—one Olga although she bore on her breast the weight of two St. George medals won for bravery while serving as a nurse at the front. Later she again returned to her home still standing erect though carrying | the added weight of two more medals, St. George Crosses given her for brav- ery asa volunteer in an artillery brigade. Surely Olga could have voted for a thousand years with less expenditure of force that it required even to tote around those four medals—not to men- tion various strenuosities she had to perform in order to get them. | Germany Plans for More Babies j G ERMANY is planning for a large crop of babics—going into the birth control business on the plus side. The committee of sixteen men ap- | | pointed by the Reichstag last year has duly reported. Of course there were [}|no women on the committee. When men investigate the cotton business || they consult the producers, but not so in the baby business. | The conservatives propose to make marriage easy and attractive, but the s propose to tax bachelors, give extra votes to the fathers of large and some money to prolific ma. It would seem as though ma ought to be consulted and given a when the votes are handed out, and not put off with a mere tip exa though she were a waitress in a restaurant run by men.
