WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN CHINA
What is this intelligence which is
flashed to us from the other side of
the Pacific? "Equal suffrage was
granted to the women of China by
the Parliament at Nanking. The law
will become effective immediately.
Women voters will be subject to the
same restrictions as men, and must
be able to read and write, be prop
erty owners, and be at least 20 years
old. Yik Yug Ying, who has been
called the. Mrs. Pankhurst of China,
was elected a member of the Parlia
ment frcm the Canton Province. She
is a college graduate.'
This comes from the "reactionary
Orient." If anybody in the United
States, England, France or any other
part of the "progressive Occident"
had, a few months ago, seriously pre
dicted that, within the lifetime of
any one then extant, the women of
China would be endowed with the
ballot, he would not have been per
mitted to roam at large without a
keeper. . If he had predicted that the
Drafts Are No Excuse For
"Catching Cold."
Fresh Air Is Ideal Tonic
J By Dr. WILLIAM BRADY, Physician of New York J
'HERE is no such thing as
SUNLIGHT, THE BEST GERMICIDE KNOWN TO MEDI
CINE, COSTS NOTHING. COLD FRESH AIR. THE BEST
TONIC IN ALL THE WORLD, IS FREE TO ALL. ONLY
HOUSED UP MOLLYCODDLES NEED BLOOD PURIFIERS IN MILD
WEATHER.

No one ever caught coryza or pneumonia out in the open. These
are HOUSE AFFECTIONS. No more domesticated germ exists
than the pnenmococcus.
Coryza probably costs the community more from an economic
standpoint than pneumonia, influenza and diphtheria combined, yet we
take no precaution whatever to prevent its spread. Osier recognized
the epidemic nature of coryza.
Others dodge drafts. We all know that it is a bacterial infection.
DRAFTS ARE AS INEVITABLE AS THE RISING SUN OR
THE FALLING RAIN OR THE CHANGING WEATHER. No
sanitarian has yet offered or ever will offer a means of ventilating a
room without a draft. A draft that causes no discomfort physical,
not psychical discomfort can do no harm. "
A clean draft of cold fresh-air is an unmitigated blessing unmiti
gated by a window board or other curious contrivance to make the
draft crooked. The draft will do the most good when we TAKE IT
STRAIGHT. The draft dodger is pretty certain to be a coryza car
rier. The best disposal we can make of window boards is to send them
to an old ladies' home to be used for kindlings.
ballot would be handed to even the
men of China he probably would have
been placed under espionage as an
undesirable citizen. !
Among the naval vessels of the
United States in service are six dou
ble turret monitors, and four single
turret monitors for harbor defence.
The monitor Monterey, armed with
12-inch guns, has long been at the
Philippines and, though slow in speed
is admitted to be a problem in a
stand-up fight.
Missouri girls have heard so much
about prize corn-growing by boys
that the girls have taken up the sub
ject of raising tomatoes for canneT
ies. If they distingush themselves
as ' well as in spelling matches and
high schools the boys will have no
walkover.

Suggestive Questions in
Sunday School Lessons
Our Bible Question Local Club is
looking up and we are much encour
aged. It is very remarkable how
these questions interest, even the
general public. It is a mistake to
suppose, as some do, that this con
test is confined exclusively to adults.
Bright boys, and girls can tajie up
these simple studies and may com
ply with the conditions as well as
their seniors, and are just as likely
to win a solid gold medal or one of
the other prizes. The prime object of
this Bible Question Club is to get
old and young to reading the Sun
day School Lessons ,and to ponder
the Suggestive Juestions. It must
not be forgotten that in answering
