HOME AGAIN.
After a holiday of three weeks, you
will find me at home again—ready to
send you a word of cheer or sympathy
as has been my custom for nearly four
teen years of continuous service in the
home column of the Semi-Weekly Jour
nal.
I bore the fatigue of travel and con
tinuous sightseeing amazingly well—
but I believe my physical strength was
kept up by taking an afternoon nap
every day—no matter where I happened
to b^ On a Pullman sleeper, I could j
easily accomplish the nap, and every
‘day, I made a regular business of going
to my room in the various hotels and
resting, and my sleep refreshed me
greatly, and brightened my wits.
* As I lack but two years of eighty, it j
was a venturesome attempt to travel
alone, for so long a period as here men
tioned. but I was very careful in cross
ing streets, always seeking a policeman’s
aid if the crowd was great or thronged
with passing vehicles. |
I really had but one serious dread, and
that was I feared I should be run over
by the rapid automobiles that seem to
be everywhere and in all crowded places,
all the time. They were so nearly noise
less, gliding over the streets, that were
as level, as glass plates, that I found
they were right at me before I glimpsed
them.
But you may be sure, a policeman’s
whistle will check their speed! One
wave of the policeman’s hand will slow
down a whole street full of these horse-,
less carriages. All along the parks you
will see “Speed Limit” glaring from*
sign posts, and these a«tos are some
times forced down, to four miles an
hour, when the joy riders are crazy to
be going at forty miles, and are only
afraid of a fine of they disobey such
speed limit instructions. A blessed good
thing it is for foot travelers’ that some
body can call the crazy ones down and
compel them to regard fhe rights of the
old or the feeble, or the dependents. I
was never too ambitious to refuse as
sistance, and it was a wonder to me,
that everybody was so willing to bear
me company across the crowded streets
of Washington and New York. I had
been across the Staten Island ferry and
had returned with immense boat loads
of holiday seekers and when I reached
the New York point again I asked a
nice looking young man to point me to
the subway entrance as I desired to go
away up Manhattan Island—not far
from Central park—so that I might see
the marching military on Memorial day.
Not only did the nice young man point
the way, but he said “I will gladly go
down with you to the subway cars.” He
took* my arm, assisted me down the
steps, and before I could see the place
to buy my ticket (5 cents) he had
bought it and said “my dear lady give
me this- pleasure.” No grandson could
have bee nicer to his own grandmother.
I said, "i thust my, dear boy, somebody
will be Very good to your own mother,
you have been so nice to care for me.”
He told me exactly how to find my way
>out and also the nearest surface car,
after I reached the open air. He made
the entire trip pleasing to- me because
it is just such lovely courtesies as do
oil the rotigh places of our dally journey
through life. L shall never see his face
ag^ip,. bqt-Lr nwked his career- for-him,
he will ever be , a self-respecting, well
mannered gentleman, no matter where
his station may allot him to work a*nd
live.
There is no surer test of manly char
acter than politeness to the aged, and I
had full measure and running over all
the way- from my home until I got back
last night very tired and much debili
tated by the-hot weather, but very hap
py that T had made my journey without
the least accident or a single thing to
mar my satisfaction. I have" a lot of
things that I can reflect upon and stud*
over when winter time shuts me in and
must compel myself to avoid severe out
doors cold weather. I am so thankful
for God’s preserving mercies and for the
dear friends I saw on rry trip and also
the quiet old home, that is always open
to receive the wanderer.
CHIIiDREN’S MANNERS.
The proper position at the table is
to sit erect with the waist or chest
just a few inches from the table. Dur

the act of eating allow the hands to lie
quietly in the lap.
They should never lounge or slip
down in the chair. The hips should
EXPERIENCE
OF MOTHERHOOD
Advice to Expectant Mothers
The experience of Motherhood is a try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their iives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the experi
ence with an organism unfitted for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results. \
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed child-birth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
ple time in which-to prepare, women
-will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkh^m’s Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.
In many homes
once childless there
are now children be
cause of the fact
that Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable
Compound makes
women normal,
healthy and strong.

touch the back of the chair near the
seat’ and the body should bend from
the hips.
Never support the elbows on the
table. It may be comfortable, but it is
very ungraceful.
Never play with knives, forks or
spoons. Perfect repose as far as pos
sible. 4
Teach the #oung to remain standing
until the mother and sisters are
seated. This custom should be strictly
regarded.
The proper place for the knife and
I fork when not being used is to place
them on tne plate, together, with the
tips in the center and handles on the
edge.
The proper way to dip soup from the
plate is away from them, instead of
| toward them, and it should be taken
from the side of the spoon, not from
the end. Never tip the soup plate or
cup to get the last drop. Never crumb
crackers into the soup.
Eat slowly always. ’Tis best for
your digestion. Eat slowly for appear
ances’ sake.
Never allow children to spread a
slice of bread and bite an<J cut it. Bread
should be eaten by breaking of small
pieces. Butter them just before placing
them in the mouth.
Teach them to peel and quarter ap
ples or peaches and cut into mouthfuls.
Asparagus should not be eaten with
the fingers.
When finished do not push a plate
away nor toy with the crumbs. Allow
children to enter into the conversation,
but also teach them to be attentive
listeners.
Insist on th#co-operation of the chil
dren in keeping the table neat and
orderly.
Teach them to appear at meal time—
on time—with neat appearance and a
smile. The dining room should be sun
ny and bright, and children should be
the same.
Move chairs carefully and noiselessly,
and let each one assume his share of
responsibility of properly passing the
food nearest him. Never allow them
to sit down, eat the food hurriedly and
leave the table before others are fin
ished. If once they leave the table do
not allow them to return at that meal.
“Good morning*’ should welcome each
as they come into the dining room,
and, should it be necessary for one to
leave the table, “Excusfe me.”
Napkins should t>e unfolded and laid
across the lap.
Teach your children to try all kinds
of foods. One may learn to like most
any o fthem, and the saddest thing, to
my notion, is a child whose table man
ners have been neglected, as these are
the test of culture.—Exchange.
One Man hilibuster
Holds Up All Work
In Senate Chamber
- (By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, June 9.—Members or
the senate, fearing that- the one-man
filibuster Inaugurated by Senator Jones,
of Washington, may delay the work of
that branch of congress, labored with
him today to abandon it. The Wash
ington senator is filibustering in pro
test against the refusal of the Demo
cratic caucus to grant minority mem
bers an additional clerk. He announced
his Intention today to renew Jiis cam
paign when the senate met Tuesday,
Threats and cajolery appeared to have
little influence on Senator Jones.
He objected yesterday, wherever the
constitution, the rules and the presid
ing officer permitted, to the technical
introduction of bills and resolutions
and to the consideration of others.
He resorted five times to the call
for a quorum, and senators, busy with
committee work or otherwise engaged,
were forced to enter the chamber and
record their presence. The members of
the tariff subcommittee striving with
all its might to finish the schedules
assigned to it recessed again and again.
Most of the senate is taking the fil
ibuster philosophically although Major
ity "Whip” Senator J. Hamilton Lewis
is unhappy and overworked in his role
of the dove of peace.
COLLEGE MEN WED SOON
AFTER GRADUATION
President Judson, of Univer
sity of Chicago, Testifies Be
fore Vice Commission •
(By Associated Press.)
CHICAGO, June 9.—Most college
graduates enter business and soon there
after are financially able xo marry and
most of the “sweet girl graduates wed,
I am happy to say,” testified Harry
Pratt Judson, president of the Universi
ty of Chicago, before the Illinois sen
ate commission inquiring into the rela
tion of low wages to vice today.
Volunteering that many of “our young
men” work their way through college,
Mr. Judson said school and college
courses should be shortened so young
men and women could be started on the
serious business of life earlier.
Asked whether he thought the law
should provide a minimum wage for
minimum efficiency, Mr. Judson replied
that the efficient man could, earn more
than the law could provide, that in
dustrial training might be provided for
the semi-efficierit.
Men who are fitted for bank work
are not the kind who would marry un
less they could afford it, according to
W. T. Abbott, vice president of the
Central Trust company. He believed
a man could marry on *$1,000 a year.
He thought establishment of a minimum
wag^ in a bank would destroy efficiency.
A. W. Harris, the third witness and
president of Northwestern university,
said he believed it the duty of every
community to see that the girl tnrown
on her own resources was able to live
respectably.
Dr. Harris declared sons of rich men
were not necessarily inefficient. Refer
ring to sons of Chicago packers, he
said he did not know one of them that
was not the business equal or superior
of his father.
Dr. Harris said E. H. Harriman’s for
tune of $100,000,000 “was not too much,
compensation for a rare individual who
made entire railroad systems more ef
ficient and indirectly worked to the wel
fare of hundreds of thousands of work
ing men and women.”
BRIDE DRINKS POISON
AFTER FIRST QUARREL
BRISTOL, Tenn., June 9.—Mrs. Os
car Oliver, a bride of a 'few weeks,
committed suicide yesterday afternoon
as a result of despondency, following
the first quarrel with her husband,
which was at lunch. She drank poison
and died in four hours. The husband is
in a grave mental condition as a re
sult of the tragedy.
COMMERCIALIZING
IBY BISHOP
CONVULSIONS
W. A. CANDLER
O 0NE of the most diabolical mani
festations of human depravity
which has come to public view in
our times, or in any times, is the ef
fort of certain persons to commercialize
international antagonisms for the pur
pose of making money on military and
naval supplies. *
Recently during the debate in the
German reichstag over the proposal to
increase the German army to a peace
footing of 900,000 men, one of the mem
bers from Berlin boldly charged the
Krupps with promoting international ir
ritations and raising war scares by an
elaborate system of bribery and adver
tising. He declared that both French
and. German newspapers, and subordi
nate officials in the war offices, were
in the pay of the manufacturers of ord
nance and armor plate to bring about
public excitement with reference to pos
sible conflicts betw'een the two great
powers of France and Germany. It was
specifically stated that a man named
Brandt, one of the paid agents of the
Krupps, made it his business to get
upon intimate terms with officials of
both the war and navy departments, and
used money to secure from them details
from secret documents, regarding con
struction, results of experiments, and
prices on war materials quoted by other
firms. Military and naval secrets, thus
betrayed for money, were skilfully pub
lished in certain subsidized jingo news
papers at moments best suited to in
fluence -warlike sentiments among the
people, and move both governments to
buy liberally military and naval sup
plies. It was alleged that the late Baron
Stumm, who made his great fortune out
of the ordnance works at Dillingen, had
perfect knowledge of these methods and
approved the custom of the managers of
the gun factory in subsidizing jingo
sheets to advocate war and diverting ad
vertising patronage to the columns of
these Incendiary newspapers.
While much which was said by this
member of the reichstag from Berlin,
may be over-statement, which ju
dicious minds will discount considera
bly, the Prussian minister of war has
admitted the substantial correctness of
most of the charges made.
Upon the case the LONDON CHRONI
CLE, one of the organs of the Liberal
party in England, thus comments: “The
heroic aspect of German military en-;
deavour, the appeals to 1813, the cry
for a great national display of self-
sacrifice, are sadly tarnished by the rev
elation of the great German gun and
armor manufacturers spending money
on patriotism just as other manufac
turers spend It on advertizement and
for the same ends.”
The CHRONICLE makes much of the
story of the pains taken by a German
gun manufacturer to have printed in a
Parisian newspaper an article stating
that France was dmibling her supply 6*
machine guns—the* object of the article
beong not that the statement would be
believed in ^France, but that it would be
accepted for Its face value In Germany,
and lead the German war office to make
a large purchase of the gun maker’s
machine guns in order to offset the al
leged increase of French ordnance. The
CHRONICLE goes on to affirm that the
Krupps have sold armor plate to the
United States for $100 a ton less than
they were paid by Germany for similar
plate.
So we understand that the Krupps
are trading with our government also,
which may explain the recent theft of
certain secret papers from the govern-
metn offices in Washington. It may ex
plain also much of the war-talk which
is finding its wg^-^o the public ear
through certain newspapers in both Ja
pan and our own country.
The PHILADELPHIA RECORD said
recently in an editorial: “It is not un
likely that there is a connection be
tween war talk and dividends. It has
been proved in Germany, and we have
manufacturers of war material who may
be capabel of stirring up public feeling
with a view to make their business more
active. Of course they would not pre
cipitate war; they would not cause men
to be killed or mangled; but it is just
possible that they would like to have
enough war feeling aroused to lead the
government to make large purchases
of military and naval supplies. There
is no excuse whatever for any war talk.
Japan may have a permanent grievance
against this country, but she will wait
till she has several more before she re
sorts to force. She beat Russia, but she
is still suffering from her victory. The
California land law is not in its nature
a cause of war, though of course it is
a cause of friction.”
Can anything be more despicable
than an effort to make money by creat
ing distrust and friction among na
tions? It may be that these gun makers
and steel-plate manufacturers do not
desire that actual war shall be brought
to pass; but they take the risk of bring
ing on war when they play upon the
sensibilities of nations already suspi
cious of each other. The Japanese states
men, for example, would not willingly
declare war against the United States;
but newspaper publications in Japan
might arouse that excitable people, just
emerging from the ignorance and isola
tion of centuries, to demand of their
leaders war.
Issuing such publications in France
and Germany is like striking lucifer
matches in a powder house; no explo
sion may occur from such reckless acts,
but the chances are all the other way.
Wars have been caused by acts less
definitely directed to the purpose of fir
ing national antipathies.
And what does war involve? The
death of thousands of men, the or
phanage of children and the widowhood
of women, moral disorder, international
hatreds and the arrest of the march
of civilization for long periods. For
men to bring on wars, that they may
get gains from selling ordnances and
army plate, is nothing short of a dia
bolical crime. ^ It is to play the part
of international incendiaries.
In the distant past kings made war
for trilling causes to gratify pride and
ambition; bu^ that sort of barbarism
has been considered impossible in this
enlightened age. But if certain manu
facturers of army and navy supplies
can with impunity incite war-like con
ditions in order to make money, the .
case of the present time is worse than
that of the past. Better a thousand
times to fight at the bidding of kings
than to go to war to gratify the greed
of these base worshipers of mammon.
What element of moral turpitude is
absent from tlreir methods? Their deeds
partake of the moral ‘essence of both
arson and murder.
If one fires his neighbor’s house, he is
guilty of arsotf, and may be punished
with death. What less penalty should i
be annexed to the crime of him who j
seeks to bring to pass international
conflagrations?
If a man murders another for pur
poses of robbery, capital punishment is
the penalty for his offense. But what
shall we say that he deserves who for
the ends of greed incites great nations
to engage In wars by which thousands
are slain in battle? Is thegallows, or
the electric chair worse than he de
serves? *
And what shall we say of newspa
pers, the columns of which are bought
tv serve the diabolical purposes of In
ternational incendiarism?
There are politicians also who par
ticipate in ‘this diabolism. These arv
they who play upon the passions anu
prejudices of the populace in order to
win office. Some of the Califvrnia
newspapers say Governor Hiram John
son and the California legislature have
been “playing politics” of this sort in
the land law which has so irritated
the Japanese. Whatever may be re
quired in the future, there seems to be
no urgent need for that piece vf leg
islation just now. except to secure the
votes of certain anti-Asiatic organiza
tions in San Francisco and a few other
places.
We may look for anti-Japanese agi
tators to appear in the region of the
republic east of the Rocky Mountains,

no attention to such alarmists. It

ers of the country were thoroughly ex
posed to view, their motive for de
manding more battle ships would be
apparent, doubtless.
With these incendiary forces infest
ing the great nations of the world, it
well becomes sensible and patriotic
people to cultivate a spirit of calm
ness and self-control wl*en bellicose
utterances are published In certain
newspapers. We should not fall into
spasms of excitement at the bidding ot
men who are engaged in the business
of commercializing convulsions.
And we should be especially calm
when publications of an inflammatory
sort are made concerning affairs in
Mexico. No friend nor loyal son or
our own country will contribute a
word to embroil our republic with the
republic south of us. Intervention
should not be thought of. Our gov
ernment should seek by all means to
promate peace in the earth, especially
in North and South America.

Eleanor Lo.ton, .was walking slowly
from the car to her rooming house four
blocks distant, when the peddler, with
his pushcart, came by, and he called
his wares in low,, singsong, yet appeal
ing, Italian. It ha# been a warm day
and. Mies Loton, cooped since early
morning in a booltkeeper’s close iron
booth in the rear of a close, murky
store, was too tired to think. But the
baskets of juicy black cherries in the
cart looked strangely pleasant. They
reminded her of a long time past, when
she wasn’t a tired; disgruntled old maid,
working to pay the rent of a ding# bed
room and three meals a day and save
something toward the oid age that was
closer each year.
She bought a. basket absent-minded
ly. Not that she wanted them. She
was too tired to bfe hungry, and she
made a move of. disgust when she put
one in her mouth. They had been in
the hot sun for. hours, and tasted stale.
She set them on the window sill and
lay down on- the b£d to rest an hour
before going to Hhe c^fe around the
corner for dinner, ^terwa-rd she forgot
all about them until the next evening
when she Came home, tired as usual.
She was unpleasantly reminded then.
The soft fruit had been a long time from
the tree, and the juice had seeped
through the frail w'ooden basket and
trickled down the faded green wall pa
per below the window sill.
With an exclamation of vexation,
Miss Loton put the basket on a news
paper pad and then considered what
she should do with the black cherries.
She couldn’t eat them. It was impos
sible to dispose of more than one layer.
She smiled wistfully as she remem-
’Fraid to Risk Your Precious Bones.”
bered that time so long ago and such
a long way from the city when she
had perched on a black limb, astrad
dle like the boy on the limb above, and
with careless ease managed to eat a
peck in one afternoon. Or was it a
bushel? She wondered where the boy
was now. Married most likely—a tired
old middle-aged man struggling some
where to feed three or four children.
But she shook that vision away. Ham
ly had too much energy to be a tired
struggler. Energy and nerve. She
laughed and forgot how tired and warm
she was. He always went scooting to
the topmost, frailest limb. No other
cherries tasted so good, he told her.
“You’re a piker,” he flung down taunt-
inly. “ ’Fraid to risk your precious
bones.”
But Eleanor calmly continued to be
a “piker” and ate contentedly down be
low. “They’re my bones,” she flung up.
“Who’s going to feel the hurt except
me if they break?”
One day the inevitable happened.
Hamly came crashing down from his
perch, arms and legs flying, cherries
popping. Eleanor had the bad luck to
be directly underneath. Bang against
her he came and slanted on through
the lower limbs to the ground. And
Eleanor, knocked sideways by the im
pact of his flying form, came crashing
after and hit the green grass beside
him. He had a leg broken. Eleanor
fractured an arm and sprained her ankle.
Hamly grinned in his pain as they car
ried him home.
“You might as well have had the fun
of climbing,” he taunted. “Got hurt
anyway, Piker!*’
Soon after that Hamly’s folks had
sold their small farm and moved away.
Eleanor grew up. Her parents died
and her married sisters and brothers
did not need her. Anyway, she didn’t
care to live around with them. She
came to the city and worked, worked,
worked, till she was tired and old.
Miss Loton came to with a start. An
hour had been spent in dreaming and
, now the juice had soaked through the
newspaper pad to the faded carpet.
Her landlady would be furious. Yet
th,e cherries were too good to throw out.
Miss Loton had been reared to frugal
habits. It seemed sinful to waste food
that many people would be thankful
for.
When a timid rap sounded on the
door and she opened it to the small,
freckled daughter of her laundress, Miss
Loton was delighted.
“Wouldn’t your mother like a basket
of cherries?” she asked ingratiatingly,
as she took the big package of laun
dered white waists.
The small, freckled face glowed. “I
guess she would,” she replied promptly.
“Cherries like them cost a*lot!” So
Miss Loton carefully wrapped them in
several thicknesses, though the small
girl seemed quite willing to risk the
juice; then she pencilled a short note on
one of her cards concerning next week’s
laundry; and lest the small fingers lose
it, slipped it into the basket.
The next day the grind of ledger
pages seemed more" monotonous than
ever. Miss Loton wondered if life
were really worth the living. She had
chosen bookkeeping because it seemed
a safe way of earning a living. Good
bookkeepers, steady, reliable book
keepers, are always in demand. The
pay isn’t large, but it is tolerably sure.
But it was so tedious. She wondered
if a more precarious way wouldn’t
have been more pleasant. But she
laughed ruefully; she had always been
so careful of her bones. She had al
ways clung to the low, safe branches.
Hamly—oh, doubtless Hamly had
climbed. And doubtless he had fallen.
But she was sure that he would jump
up and be ready to climb again. And
the woman he had married—for, of
course, he had married—would enjoy
Hamly. He was the kind to keep a
woman happy. For one could always
watch him climb, and know he wouldn’t
mind the fall.
It must be admitted that Miss Loton’s
pen jabbed the ledger pages viciously
that day. She hated ledger pages.
She hated the gray threads that were
appearing in her hair and that told too
plainly of her thirty-two years. She
bated the tired, worried lines about her
eyes. “Worry?” she demanded In fierce
self-scorn. “Why should I worry?
Haven’t I got enough saved for a life
membership in an old ladies’ home?
I’m safe—I’ve been careful to stay on
the lower limbs—”
Rigidly she brought herself back to
the monotony of the columns of figures
and bent over the page. Ten minutes
later she was interrupted by her em
ployer, a nervous little man. Behind
him came a tall, somewhat shabby
man, whose gray eyes seemed familiar.
Yet she couldn’t place him, and her em
ployer started away without introduc
ing him. Miss Loton looked up puz
zled.
Smiling, he fished a juice stained
card from his coat pocket and handed
it to her. Still puzzled, she took it. It
was her own, the one she had slipped
in with the cherries the night before.

to assist her. You can’t write any bet

her calmly. “Say, I wonder if by any
chance you bought those cherries in
memory of the carloads we used to
devour!"
“Hamly!” cried Eleanor Loton. “It
surely isn’t you?”
“It surely is,” he vowed. “Shame on
you! To give cherries away because

Arrived From Olympia, Wash,,
on Tour Which Will End in
. California
A unique visit was paid Governor
Joseph M. Brown at the capital Thurs
day morning when four bona fide west
erners rode up the steps from the side
walk on horseback, leaving their mounts
at the foot of the main stairs to the
building.
In the party were J. B. ’ Ransome,
Raymond Rayne. George W. Beck and
C. C. Beck, all from the Circle '*5” ranch,
in Olympia, Wash. The governor came
out of his offie'e to greet the visitors and
then posed with them at the capitol
steps while The Journal photographer
snapped them.
The quaret brought a letter from
Governor W. E. Hay, of Washington
state, introducing them to the chief ex
ecutives of every state in' the union
whom they expevt to visit In their
20,000-mile trip over the United States
in the saddle.
Used to ^>e afraid of a stomach ache!”
“No. But that was a good many
years ago. I’m glad to see you, Hamly,”
with more wistfulness in her tone than
she was aware of. “How has the world
treated you?”
“You mean how have I treated the
world, don’t you?” he said, with the
same old impudence. It swept away
the intervening years. Miss Loton for
got that she was nearly old and nearly
wrinkled. She laughed till the light
came into her eyes and a flush into her
oheek3 and the wrinkles were crinkles.
He calmly told her employer that Miss
Loton was going home early that day.
“I’ll lose my position,” she cried in
alarm under her breath.
“You can easily get another,” he as
sured her calmly. ‘ “Where’ll we go for
dinner?”
Over dinner, in a cool, palm shaded
restaurant, she learned that Hamly had
never married, but had made and lost
money half a dozen times.
“If I’d only had some one along to
pin my coat tails to the lower branches,
I think I could have saved some,” he
told her earnestly. And then he took
her breath away by coolly asking her to
marry him and go to South America the
next day. “I’ve got a chance to make
a lot of money,” he said, with enthusi
asm. “Of course, it’s only a chance.
We may come a cropper. But I’ll,
guarantee to have our fare back if we
do. Will you? I want you, Eleanor. In
all my life, I never have seen any one
who was just the same as you. Will you
take the chance?”
In a second Eleanor tossed overboard
the carefulness of a lifetime. For once
she would risk. “Yes,” she said. “I
will. I’m tired of sitting on the safe
lower branches. I don’t care if we’re
stranded and have to work our way
back.”
Mme, Jules Siegfried Says
Militant Suffragettes Are
Enemies to Cause
PARIS, June 9.—Mme. Jules Sieg
fried. wife of a former French 'cab
inet minister and president of the
French National Association of . Wom
en, is strongly opposed to the ’tactics
adopted by the militant suffragettes.
In an interview published here to
day she refers to the derby incident
when Miss Emily Davison, threw her
self in front of the king's horse “in
the name of freedom for women."
“Many of the delegates to the inter
national congress of women, now in
session in Paris, look upon such man
ifestations with intense disapproval,''
says Mme Siegfried.
“The militant suffragettes are behav
ing as though they are Insane. Their
dangerous demonstration hurt the cause
of womankind. There are in England
as well as in Frajice great number*
of feminists who pursue their alms
without employing boisterous expedi
ents to attract attention. Such prac
tices as those adonted by the militant
suffragettes savor of charlatanism and
turn our cause int,o ridicule. They are
our enemies.”
Lady Aberdeen, president of the In
ternational Council of Women, said:.
“We condemn without mercy these
senseless acts. The aim of our efforts
is that men and women should be
equal. The realization of ideas of Mrs.
Emmeline Pankhufrst would provoke a
revolution of which women would be
the sole victims.”
