HOME PAGE When You Have A Talented Guest THE INVITATION WITH A STRING TO IT. The other evening I eat at dinner next to a girl whom I knew by reputation as a talented Finger. During our conversation I gleaned that ahe wax worried for fear f»he would be asked to sing. She told ms how all dav she had been working very hard and how tired ahe was. and that Rhe did not want to ulna, especially after a meal, and yet dread ed the ordeal of refusing. And sure enough, after the dinner a autnfoer of the guests Insisted on her -cowing off her talent. It was, Indeed, ■wy'i treat dlffti ulty and considerable tßTtoaeraswment that she "got out of it.” Y.’lth a great sigh of relief, sha turn ed to ni« later and said: "I do hope We are proud of the confi dence doctor*, druggist* and the public have in 666 Chill •and Fever Tonic.— adv.

It is truly remarkable how incon siderate people are of their talented guests It. is certainly unfair to invite a lot of people, many of whom have had nothing to do but get ready for the party, and entertain them through the efforts of another Invited guest who has doubtless worked hard all day at her talent. After all. it is a poor compliment to Invite anybody to your home and then ask him or her to entertain your guests. It is h very little removed from ask ing them to pay for their invitation. People, especially professionals, resent this, and rightfully. There is no more reason for you to In vjt*» Mary Nightingale to your home to dinner and insist on her singing than It is for you to ask Mr. Moneybags to bring his books and show you how to makes his money. An invitation to a talented person should not imply an obligation to show what ho can do. On the contrary, the host or hostess who really aims to please her guests takes si**' ial rare to make them nee that her interest Is to entertain them and not that they do the entertaining. Jhave always found that the best wgy to treat talented people or profesßionsts, whose daily or nightly grind Is. enter taining. Is to let them alone I —to do as they please; and nine times out of ten they will voluntarily do their share of being agreeable even to the point, of presenting their specialty. As a general proposition true artists love their work, and when they are In the mood they are only too delighted to have people get pleasure out. of their performance As one great pianist «ald to me, “I love to play for people whom T think really want me to play, but I hate to do It when It is expect.fd of me aa a part of the evening’s programme.” A "funny” man, a stage celebrity, gives an instance of how he was In vited to dinner and found one of the members of the family with a pad and pencil to take down all he said True hospitality in the Inst analysts lies in making a person feel the pleasure of being entertained, even though he himself contributes to the entertaining If is a poor invitation that has a string attachment of obligation.

Glorious out-of-door Women Will Get Vote Too Late To Help Choose Next President (By MARGUERITE EDWARDS.) Jun» , 1919. seems destined to put the vote into the hands of American women— just too late to make if of much effect in th«> national elections of November. 1920. WH V ? Because, to become effective, the suf frage amendment to the constitution must be ratified bv thirty-six state legislatures. The last bi-ennial session of the ma jority »f state legislatures convened In January, 1919, and adjourned a few weeks later —to meet no more until January, 1921—one month too late to let the ladies in on choosing the next president. In order to ratify the amendment In time for the 1920 elections at least twen ty-five state governors would have to summon the legislatures in special ses sion! The chances are that that will NOT be donel As a result, the women in the. twenty three states already enjoying full or pres idential suffrage as a result of state ac tion, will he the only ones to participate P | . < f in the next national elections, while their Histers who have just attained the vote by federal amendment —keep on waiting pa tiently. Six other states. Georgia. Massachu setts, Now Jersey, New York, Rhode Isl and and South Carolina, hold annual in stead of bi-ennial legislative sessions, and so might possibly add six votes of ratifi cation. But, even should the five southern states and the six annual session states all ratify the suffrage amendment their total of eleven votes would still leave twenty-five state ratifications needed to complete the thirty-six required. And all of the twenty-five would have to be summoned in special session to vote! Therefore the old-line politicians who count on "influence" and "control" and "tied-up” votes will not have to lie awake nights worrying over the unknown quan tity of the women’s vote THIS election. At the same time, while suffragist* win be unabk t<% take full advantage of their new franchise privflege in Novem ber, 1920. the vote of women will be of considerable Importance In that election. Fifteen states grant their vonwn full suffrage, their total female population of women eligible to vote numbering 7.303,- 288. with a total of 137 eectoral votes. Eight other states grant women presi dential suffrage, with approximately 4.- 000.0000 women voters and 97 electoral votes. Two more states give women the vote at presidential primaries. The grand total of women who may freely approach the 1920 ballot boxes, in dependent. of the federal amendment—are In number, 13,000,000. controlling 263 elec toral votes and representing twenty-five state* of the Union. The suffrage amendment which will be finally accepted bv congress and the sen ate In 1919 was drafted by Susan B. An thony itt 1875, and is known as the An thony amendment. It was first introduced in the senate in 1878 by Sargent, of California. Thirty times since it has been introduced, and defeated or tabled The United States Senate has passed on suffrage four times Tn I*B7 suffrage received 16 ayes and 34 noes; in 1914 it League of Women Voters Strong on Americanism (By MARGARTVE EDWARDS.)

Miss Mary Garrett Hay, -president of the New York Otty I-e*gue> of 'Women Voters, voiced the sentiment of the na tional organization in these words; -After woman suffrage is -won forth* nation (he League of Women Voters shall adopt for ita main purpose the effort to make America the country in -which all voters speak Unghsh. read their own bal lot a and honor the American flag!” Mrs. i diaries H.

Questioned as to whether i( would dissolve after the suf frage amendment is passed asked •Whyr "We most go on -with our •work,*’ she said, "as long as there exist in our nation any inefficient measure# for good citizen ship, as long as there exists the appall ing degree of Illiteracy shown by the gov ernment reports of the draft examina tions; as long as there are inequalities ui women's status in industry, profes sions and society, as long as there are Imperfect laws for social Justice, as long as women and children need our special help and protection." In regard tot he special program of Americaniantton adopted by the langur of Women Voters at St. lawns the main points at that program call for the efforts of women voter# to obtain; 1. t'ompnisory education iiews. f.

If it is true in business that "nothing succeeds like success,” it is even truer in courtship that the man with the good job wins the girl whbre the man with the job still “to get" loses out. No matter now attractive the jobless lad may be, or how prosaic the one with the pay envelope, the girl in the case is apt to see attraction wherever the safe prospects are. The reason for this may not even be conscious on the part of the, girl. She may honestly and fervently think she is more in love with the prosperous chap than with the other. You know the sav. ing: “It's as easy to love a man with money as one without." Well, with the average girl, it is easier. Remember that for centuries women have been brought up to believe their best way of earning a living was to marry one. They have come to confuse love with all sorts of other things—practical things, or pleasant things. A girl Is often in love with love, when she thinks she’s in love with the mam It is the homage she loves. The flattery of having some one care. The attentions, the gifts and the compliments. Likewise she things she loves the man with the good position, whereas it is the position she is in love with. She endows the man with virtues and at tractions he does not possess just be rause he is a prosperous man and has j# Powdered Soap V J\ v, 111 I——^l^— 5cT Try this Powdered Soap Today!

The possession of the job act ually strengthens the man’s character and personality. To “A. E. F.” therefore. I would say, “Go after a good job with might and main.” If you cannot land the best po sition in the world, try to land the next best. But land something It is easier to get a job FROM a job than from nothing. I believe the girl's admiration for you will pick up immediately. If it does not, take a careful inventory of yourself and find wherein you fall short of your rival’s attractiveness. If by any mischance you do not find work, it is more than ever necessary that you take an inventory of yourself. The returned soldier with the overseas chev ron should have little trouble if he can do some one thing well. If ydu cannot do any one thing well, but have a desire to, then choose the work you would iike best to do and ~o systematically after it. Remember that personality is the most valuable think a job-seeker can possess. Took neat, be as well-dressed as possi ble, stand straight and speak distinct ly. _Talk up. Be afraid of nobody. Im press the boss that you are enthusiastic and willing. Bear in mind that intel ligence is as valuable as experience. All this advice applies as well to the landing of a girl as to the landing of a job! « No—not washing powder—but Powdered Soap! A great boon to the household. Use it wherever you would use lordinary soap but with less bother, less waste, and with better results. Just a tablespoon in any kindwf •water, hard or soft, cold or hot, and you get the most glorious, cleansing suds without the ex travagance of wasting bar soap. It will not harm the finest silks or softest flannels—and it is so kind to the hands.
