LONDON f AP) There Is a steadily growing group of women living In England who are women without a country. They ure form er English women whom their gov ernment disowns on their marriage lo a citizen of the I'nlted Wales and whom the I tufted Slates re fuses to recognize as citizens since tho enactment of the bill forcing loreign citizenship unless natural ized in America. At the lime the Mil was enacted Ihe number of English women ninrrl'M to Americans in England was very small and little notice was taken of the hardships forced upon' them. 'Now those nationally, out cast womeju In England number lUmiU, ,Q0 no their-juvrflcumont; is constantly being brought lo the notice of the Ibitish government anil the United States consular au thorities In England.. - . Neither the government nor the consuls will grant passports to these women although requests are made dally for this privilege. The Ilritish government, according to their law, believes that the woman becomes an American citizen on marriage and thereforo refuses passport, facilities. The American consuls have relented to tho extent of issuing letters explaining that the person cited Is married to an American and although technically not an American citizen, request ing that passport privileges lie granted.- The consuls refuse to ac cept any responsibility, however, and II. Is entirely on the suffrage of foreign governments that theso women are allowed, lo enter for eign countries.. The "letter Is re H Hired to e vised ns passports, hut eyen despite this precaution, many holders -lijtvo been refused admis sion 'in European countries, par ticularly m tin Ralkan slates. Several . attempts to have tin mat ter satisfactorily settled have beii mader by Anglo-American or ganizations' In England but just now there ls no disposition on the pnrt of ''either- government to ebnngo tho' existing laws., The Inst English government considered the question and went so far as to agree, to place the matter before parliament, but tho present 'on seivutivn government Is not taking any steps in that direction. Most of the women affected have no npport unity of residing in the I'nlted States for the year required 'Jo obtain A,ii)ericaii citizenship and it is for this class that an appeal will shortly be made by an Amer- jican women's organization in Eon- don to the American government to modify the existing iuw so as to al low it "declaration of Intent" to he substituted for the residential pe riod in America. The number of these women without u country is increasing at tho rate of 'about Bi)0 a year. VK HAVE no brass IIVXI TO parade arojnd , AND TFXIj you what wo ARE DOI.VfJ or how wo can HEHVK you.

Evcrythfnir for the Sick Room I'llONK MAI 111 S?3 Portia's Father Was Id-fashioned IN THE day-of Shakespeare's famous heroine, buying' and selling were contests of wits. In Venice, haggling and dickering were the vogue. Along the Rialto, sharp practice was the rule. Every purchase of silk or spices was made at the buyer's risk. One had to be a shrewd judge of values and one's fellows to escape trickery. Portia's father a merchant was used to the ideas of guess, luck and accident. So much so, indeed, that it seemed natural to him to entrust the choice of his daugh ter's husband to three closed caskets and a lucky guess! Nowadays, we do not transact business blindly nor leave important decisions to chance. It is not necessary for us to gamble when we buy. Commodities are identi fied for us by trade-marks. Manufacturers go to the advertising columns to tell us about their products. Merchants describe their merchandise price, quality and service. By reading advertisements, we get a knowledge of goods and stores that we can depend on. Advertising reduces chance, in buying, to a minimum. DO YOU READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS?
