SUFFRAGE PARADE AT
BALTIMORE CONVENTION.
Maryland Women Are Planning a
Number of "Stunts."
Among tho features nlnnneil by Ma
ryland suffragists Curing the Demo
cratic nntlonnl convention nt Itnltl
moro is a banquet to Mrs. Annie II.
PItzcr, slstcr-in-law of Chnmp Clnrlt
find one of the twelve delegates from
Colorndo.
Mrs. Donald It. Hooker, president of
the Just Government league, said:
"While tho convention Is in session
the attention of the whole country will
be centered on Baltimore, and this af
fords a unique opportunity for us to
draw attention to the fact that we nre
living in a lopsided democracy. The
convention will be productive of fervid
speech and hysterical oratory about
the noble principle which our democ
racy stands for, and It will be a won
derful opportunity for us to call atten
tion to the fact that such a democracy
Is unsound and false."
The suffragists are planning n pa
rade, but to offset tho charge of lack of
originality they say it will Ikj much
more unique than the recent New York
one; that there will be in lino women
from Baltimore, Washington, Philadel
phia, New York and all the suffragist
wives, daughters and sweethearts who
will go with protecting males to the
Baltimore convention.
To all delegates will be given invita
tions to march, but only those favoring
suffrage are expected to accept. The
date for the parade will not be set until
the last minute, as the marchers would
bo under dlfllculties if an exciting ses
sion of the convention were going on.
"If it eonies in the daytime," said
Mrs. Hooker, "we will carry banners
with concise and striking mottoes; if at
night we will carry torchlight trans
parencies bearing the same mottoes.
Colored sashes of some sort will be
part of our dress. We will go afoot,
with carriages for the decrepit enthu
siasts who cannot walk. One of our
honored guests will bo Mrs. IMtzer."
The Just Government league is also
planning to secure n number of tickets
ndmittlng bearers to the lloor of the
convention, who In odd moments will
endeavor to do personal missionary
work nmong the delegates.
WOULD LET WEAK BABIES DIE
Keeping Them Alive Only Increases
Criminal Population, Says Doctor.
That heredity couuts more than en
vironment in the rearing of children
was the doctrine discussed by the hy
giene experts assembled nt the Phila
delphia "baby saving show." Dr. n.
II. Goddard of tho School For Hack
ward Children at VIneland, N. J., said:
"Certain children are of such low
mentality that It would hare boon bet
ter had they never been born; but, hav
ing come Into the world, that is no
reason why they should be allowed to
exist
"The present methods of reducing in
fant mortality nre all wrong. To save
babies of this class and raise them into
adults Is only to continue to breed dis
ease. By keeping them alive we are
Increasing the race of thieves, paupers
and the like, nnd It would be far bet
ter if they were allowed to die In In
fancy that the whole humnn race may
be saved from the consequences of
contamination with the offspring of
BUch parents."
WOMEN GET OUT NEWSPAPER.
They Report, Edit, Print and Sell the
Ithaca News.
The Federation of Women's Clubs
got out nn edition of the Ithaca (N. Y.)
News. They reported, edited, printed
and sold a sixteen page newspaper.
The sporting pago contained an inter
view on the Cornell rowing crew by
Charles E. Courtney, a forecast of tho
intercollegiate track meet by Coach
Jack Moakley, a story on baseball by
Coach Daniel Coogan and an account
of a baseball game.
Half a dozen women reporters cover
ed the city news, nnd professors' wives
got the news from tho Cornell campus.
The woman's newspaper beat the other
daily out on tho street by two hours
and had several important "scoops."

IF DUNNA SHAW
WERE PRESIDENT
Woman Suffrage Leader Tells
What She Would Do,
MAKEUP OF HER CABINET.
She Advocates Immediate Reduction of
the Tariff, Establishment of a Parcels
Post and Extension of Health Laws.
Other Planks In Her Platform.
Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president
of tho National American Woman Suf
frage association, tells wlwt sho would
to If she were president of tho United
States. Alxiut the llrst thing wonld le
to make Jane Addamn the secretary of
sUito and Hetty Green secretary of the
treasury. Tho wnr itortfollo she would
offer to Andrew Carnegie.
Mrs. Shnw's other cabinet appoint
ments would be: Ixmis l. BrandelH for
attorney general, Senator Jonathan
Bourne for postmaster general, Mrs.
Ella Plage Young of Chicago for sec
retary of tile Interior, Professor
Charles Bailey of Cornell for necretnry
of agriculture and John Mitchell for
secretary of commerce and labor. Sbo
would nnme Miss Jean Gordon of New
Orleans for clialrman of the child wol
fare commission. John D. Rockefeller,
Jr., for chnlrman of the white slave
commission nnd Dr. Harvey W. Wiley
for chairman of the pure food commis
sion. These selections were made by
Dr. Shaw in McColl's Magazine.
Declaring that tlie federal constitu
tion is now beini; deliberately vio
lated nnd advocating as a woman the
Immcdlnte reduction of the tariff, Dr.
Shnw urges that "the guarantee of tho
constitution to protect tho states In a
republican form of government pro
supposes that no state would have tho
power to disfranchise any clais or sex
of Its citizens without due canso or to
establish as n qualification for citi
zenship the insuperable Ixirrler of sex
which disqualifies one-lialf of its citi
zens from voting.
Would Extend Health Laws.
Taking up the matter of education,
Dr. Shnw advocates "the appointment
of a commission with power to investi
gate various educational systems and
to elaborate from them a system of
education which would develop the
whole nature of the child nnd make
it into a metal and intelligent citi
zen, with n reayonnWe knowledge of
the duties and obligations of citizen
ship. This can never be done so long
ns vast numbers 'of children are not
provided with educational advantages
in our great cities because of the lack
of schoolbouso facilities. It should bo
impossible to point to a singlo child in
this nation denied educational advan
tages for the lack of a sent in a school
house or for the lack of an adequate
number of teachers.
"I would urge that tho present laws
in regard to public health should be
applied to the supervision of food nnd
supplies in general and to the manu
facturing of garments under healthful
conditions, and I would urge that there
should extend to the authorities the
power, when in their Judgment the
public health demands it, to direct the
purchaso and distribution of food to
the public Rt cost, on tb ground that
it is better to prescrrc the health of
the community than to restore It after
hardship nnd famine have under
mined it
"Yet some new legislation is neces
sary, and I would urge the passage of
a law establishing a parcels post.
Loans to Producers.
"I would recommend that tho gov
ernment, either by direct loan or by
making it possible for national bank
ers to lend money for agricultural de
velopment, should encourage the pro
ducer. This Is only nn expansion of
what the government Is doing nt pres
ent In new lands, when it develops
large irrigation plants nnd then sells
land to reimburse Itself, nnd In tho
same way counties, towns nnd villages
might borrow money nnd lend It to
farmers for agricultural development
It is useless to cry tnck to the farm'
unless farming Is looked upon as are
other important industries and Is ade
quately protected nnd aided In Its de
velopment We enn rendlly seo what
It would mean to New York or any
other city If the farmer stopped ship
ping to It. A day would cut off Its
milk, live days would cut off all pro
visions, and n week would mean fam
ine." Among other planks In her platform
would be, writes Dr. Shaw, federal
control of railways, telegraphs, tele
phones and other public utilities, such
as wntcr power nnd water supplies.
Then tho pure food laws would come
In for drastic strengthening ns well ns
the child labor lnws, the laws of quar
antine nnd n uniform marriage and di
vorce law.
Dr. Shaw takes n fling nt the tariff
and concludes by declaring that "tho
public lias been too long compelled to
pay for tho protection of n few eter
nally . infantile Industries, while the
cost of living for the poor is contin
ually Increasing.
"I would advocate the prohibition of
the ownership of large tracts of un
cultivated land by nllens, and I would
urge the compulsory sale of uch
lands ns are already owned ' gov
ernment nt a valuation similar to that
which in placed upon them for pur
poses of taxation by their owners and
tho sale of the land by the government
nt cost to homesteaders."
THROWS LIGHT ON THE
PRESENT HIGH PRICES.
Data on Cereals Collected by the Thir
teenth Decennial Census.
A vivid explanation of one of the
causes of tho present high cost of liv
ing Is shown in the data collected by
the thirteenth doccnnlnl census for tho
nost Important gcncrnl crops in 1009.
During the doendo from 1800 to 1000
tho population of the United Stntes in
creased 21 per cent, while the per capi
ta production of cereals, which in 1801)
was r8.4 bushels, was In 1000 only 40.1
bushels. With a gencrnl production
only slightly latper the vnluo of tho
cereal crop In 1009 exceeds that in
ISO!) by ? 1,183,000,000, or 70.8 per cent.
The ndvnnce bulletin of the census
says:
In April, 1010, there were In the Unit
ed States 87S,7!lS,32ri ncres of land in
fnrms, of which 478,-l51,7f0 acres were
Improved, ami It Is noted that the croiw
under consideration, with an aggregate
of 301,32.",r9S acres, occupied somewhat
over one-third of all tho land in farms
nnd somewhat less than two-thirds of
the farm land which is improved.
The totnl value of those crops In 1009
amounted o $4,41)9,320,000.
Tho most Important crops in both
census years In respect to ncre.igft are
corn, with !)S.3S2,(i(l." ncres In 1910; bay
nnd forage, 172,2!;0,77ll; wheat, 44,202,
C92; oats, .ir.ir,441, and cotton, 32.
013.S38 in the order named.
In value tho order of the crops is
different. Corn stands llrst with $1,
43S,nr)3,010, but hay and forage as
sume the second place with $S24,001,
877, followed by cotton, ?703,G10,303;
wheat, ?Gr7,0TG,S01, and oats, $414,097,-422.

HALE STATUE AT YALE.
Proposition Has Come Before Cor
poration In a New Form.
The proposition to erect a stntue of
Nathan Hale, n hero of the Revolution
ary war, on the Yale campus nt New
naven, Conn., has been referred by
tho corporation to the committee on
memorials. This is a step of progress
on a matter which has been in ncute
controversy.
Eight years or more ago Yale men
were discussing tho question of erect
ing n statue and whether It should be
modeled by Saint Gaudens or by Par
tridge. Graduates actually raised funds
for n model by Partridge, but the cor
poration refused assent Since then
Saint Gaudens has died, nnd tho Par
tridge model has been withdrawn. The
question comes before the corporation
now on a proposition for a statue by
Bola Pratt of Boston, with funds guar
anteed by the graduates.
TAPS FOR A DEWEY SHIP.
Historic Yorktown to Be Sold to a Mi
nor American Republic.
Tho United States gunboat York
town, one of the vessels of Dewey's
fleet which captured Manila, was plac
ed out of commission at tho Mare Is
land navy ynrd recently.
The vessel probably will be sold to
one of the Centra! or South American
republics, although It Is reported that
Mexico has made a provisional offer of
purchase.
The Yorktown was commanded by
tho late Admiral Robley P. Evans at
Valparaiso, Chile, during the strained
relations between the United Stntes
and Chile In 1S01. It was Evans' di
plomacy backed by tho guns of the
Yorktown that brought nbout u speedy
settlement of the dispute.

CARE OP MIIjK in the HOME.
It Is not enough to bo particular
nbout tho kind of dairy from which
you buy your milk. You must alBO
bo careful in handling it nt homo.
Try if posslblo to buy bottled milk.
Dipping milk from a can as Is dono
by somo dealers exposes it to dust,
if you enn't buy milk in bottles, use
a covered kottlo when you get it. Do
not allow milk to stand on tho door
stop nftor it has been delivered. The
gorms In milk lncreaso by tho
thousands as tho milk becomes
warm. Keep it cold all tho time.
Milk absorbs unpleasant odors. If
you havo a refrigerator try to keep
tho milk In n soparato compartment
from tho other food stuffs. All tho
compartments of tho refrigerator
should bo scalded nt least once a
week with a washing soda solution,
thoroughly scruhhed with a brush
nnd rinsed with clean water.
Do not keep milk longer than
twenty-four hours. Milk may be
come unfit for use before it is sour
to tho taste. In case of typhoid
fever, scarlet fever, soro throat or
any contagious disease, do not tako
milk bottles Into tho sick room. Al
ways wash your hands before pour
ing milk from a hottle. Wipe off
tho mouth with a clean towel. Al
ways rcplaco tho cap of tho bottle,
if tho cap Is torn put an invorted
tumbler over tho bottle. After
emptying tho bottlo rlnso It out with
cold wntcr nnd then wnsh It In the
usual way.
Although there is no food more
wholesomo than milk, there is none
that offers a better breeding place
for germs. Drink plenty of milk hut
use tho greatest caro in handling it.

Ho Was tho One.
A small boy with a rather lost and
lonesome appearance walked into the
county clerk's office at the court
house. He gazed about him for n
time nnd finally approached Deputy
Henry Smiley.
"Please, sir," the lad said timidly,
"havo you seen anything of a lady
around here? '
"Why, yes, sonny," answered
Smiley, "I've seen several."
"Well, have you seen any with
out a little boy?" tho lad asked nnxl
ously. "Yes," replied Smiley.
"Well," said the little chap, as a
relieved look crossed his face, "I'm
tho little boy. Where's the lady?"

in your family you of course call
a reliable physician. Don't stop
at that; havo his prescriptions
put up at a reliable pharmacy,
even if it is a little farther from
your home than some other store.
You can find no more reliable
store than ours. It would be im
possible for more care to be taken
in the selection of drugs, etc., or
in the compounding. Prescrip
tions brought here, either night
or day, will bo promptly nnd
accurately compounded by a
competent registered pharmacist
and the prices will be most rea
sonable. O. T. CHAMBERS,
