WILSON'S RECORD.
Woodrow Wilson's record as gov
ernor of New Jersey is being laid be
fore the Afhericah people with great
disadvantage to the Democratic can
didate for president.
For instance, during the session of
the legislature of New Jersey in 1311
two bills were passed which the peo
ple of New Jersey had long desired
and greatly needed, namely a rail
way crossing measure and a bill to
promote1; the building of a railway
tunnel between Philadelphia and
Camden. Both bills were vigorously,
opposed by the railway corporations
and Governor Wilson vetoed , them
both, giving many excuses therefor,
but no just reasons. Both bills were
passed over the vetoes, but the rail
way cro sing bill has been killeri
through legal technicalities and the
people will thus be deprived indefi
nitely of the relief for which they
nave prayed for a generation thanks
to Governor Wilson's friendship for
the great corporations of that long
u;i'ering state.

PLEA FOR SUFFRAGE.
GREUON CITY, Oct. 16. (Oregon
City Enterprise) You voters -may
1a.c know it, but eight million women
are earning their own living in the
Lniied States today, doing work j
wnieh for them is quite as hard as
your, work is for you. A very large I
percentage of them are supporting I
lamiiiea and paying taxes; they are
governed by the 'tame laws which
govern you and stand shoulder, to
shoulder with ycu six days in. the
I week. Do you consider that this
maKes them any less womanly? Tlien
ion t you tnink we should be able to
ward off your influence we- have
your word for it that it is not a prop
er influence long enough to vote with
you once in a year or two? :
These eight million women are per
fectly willing to ' remain in the
home" w here you say they belong tut
sir.ee they are unfortunately compell
ed to get out into the world every
day to earn their own bread and but
ter, ihey feel that they should have
bomethiiig to ay about their condi-
titns and surroundings i .while . at
. ork. If for no other reason than :
that tkey are going to be mothers oi i
a large percentage of the next gen
eration of voters, they should have a
chance for health and well-being.
The fact that 'an army of women'
ad children are working in sweat
shops and fire traps has not seemed I
to worry the voter much except when
a wholesale cremation of factory girls !
or some such incident has for the '
! moment aroused his pity. But worn-1
en.tiiemselves, do not enjoy it, and i
they feel that they should be given
a chance u better their condition, ,
Personally, I should- dislike a heap
worse to be one who takes the respon !
sibility of refu.ing such a request I
than to be one of those who make it; !

PENSION THE MQTEER.S!
One of the prettiest pictures I h-ive
seen is that of .Mrs. Anne Sques and
her happy family of seven i-hiidreu. tlie
oldest only ten.
The newspaj-er picture shows ,jo!!y.
hearty Mrs. Sques at the head of her
table cultinir fretn'rous slires of lire 'd
for the healthy yonntr kids. Aud there
Is more than b-fad on the table.
The husband was killed in an acii
dent, and Mrs. Sqnes receives a moth
er's pension of $7 per month for ea. li
child.
Who pays it? The people of Cook
county. III.
Under the new Illinois law the coun
ty does not break up such n family,
senditift the children to some institu
tion, but pays the mother to keep th"
family together.
Every state should copy that law.
Under the old system families like
that of Mrs. Kques are ruined and the
children are sent to-county or state in
stitutions, where the children are
stamped with an influence that de
prives them of self respect, character,
enterprise and loyalty to the family.
Knowing no home and no family, they
can have no love for them.
The four yountr men recently hnnped
in Chicatro were rrdsed in haritabie in
stitutions. The homeless hild usually
passes on to the reformatory and the
jail'.
Ard the mother?
Say the husband js killed by one of
those accidents so frequent in our In
dustrial life or deserts his family. T'lf
mother works herself nearly ta death
trying to keep her brood of children.
One day she f-iils on the rent and the
lamllord orders her out.
What happens?
Some society or the policeman hales
her into court, and the children are
sent tf different institutions, where
she may never Ree them again. The
home is broken and the mother heart
broken. t
It is an infamous system.
Every child has the right to the love
and care of its mother, if the mother is
worthy, and the memory of the moth
er's companionship and affection is the
child's dearest heritage.
In a thousnnd places n thousand
tragedies tire enacted because of this
system. Millers walk lonelr streets
and. like iVHi.-ie!. i-a!l for theii' -l'"
dren, and thmisands of children crv
out their hearts fur their mothers.

should not be above studying even pol

husband speak of it.
She needs a sympathetic nature in

Sleep and Beauty.
Sleep is the generator of energy. . It
is the coaling station of time, where
we store enough fuel to take us
through the hours to come. When the
supply of fuel runs low we are com
pelled to trundle along at half speed
Our limbs feel as if they were chained
to prevent free action, our mind is
sluggish, slow to grasp a situation
and slower to respond. Lethargy Is
the foe of beauty of the radiant type.
The real beauty sleep comes before
midnight and ends when the day is
young. This is as nature intended. It
work prevents following the natural
hours for rest things should tie so ar
ranged that sleep will be undisturbed
by the noise and activity of the day.
If eight hours' sleep are impossible
make up for the lost rest by sleeping
ten hours the next night, insomnia
is often the result of irregularity ot
sleeping hours.
Do not neglect to have plenty of
fresh iiir In the room devoted to rest
and sleep.
Skin Beauty.
For the yellowish skin nothing is so
satisfactory as fruit juices, aDd the
woman who pins het faith to this de
lightful remedy will surely reap the
reward of her trust m nature
Fruit juices are beneficial principally
in that they stimulaie the sluggish liv
er to renewed activity, thus ilirowin;;
off the poisons which ai-c umtilate and
are distribnied along the surface ot
the skin.
Orange juice poured into a cup of ho
water and taken tiefore breakfast each
morning brings almost Immediate re
sults. (Jrapefruit has much the same
effect, but should be taken more spar
ingly. the juice ot half a fruit to mi"
fourth of a flip of hot water being tin
correct proportion.
Beaches, .plums, grapes, raspberries
blackberries, cherries, lemons, lime
all offer excellent opportunities to pur
sue the frui juice cure.

said one of the girls who met at a
fashionable soda fountain after not
having seen each other for u month or
so. "Have you beeu away on your va

been at home right along."
"It certainly agrees with you. You're

In ice."
"Ice? You mean ice water?" the en
vious one said
! "No, 1 mean ice. and I'll tell you how
I 6V it. One reason so many of us
have color in our faces is because
our circula..' 'ti is bad. In spite of what
the critics say of us. women seldom
do anything to bring the blood to their
cheeks, so 1 studied out the following
plan: Every morning, sifter I have had
my morning exercise to wake me up.
I take a small piece of ice and wash
my face with it. ' I go over every spot
of my face and neck with it until the
piece is entirely gone. As I begin with
a piece about half the size of my fist
you can see I get a nice chilling. When
the ice is melted I rub my face briskly
with a Turkish towel until it is quite
dry.
"My dear, you feel tine, it is aw
fully cooling in the first place, and it
makes you feel very lively. For a
minute or two you are red. like a frost
bitten apple: then that fades away
into the nicest color. You see. the ice
not only helps the circulation, but it
acts like a tonic, on the muscles and
takes away that distrssing sagging of
the face that so many of us have."
"Well." said the other girl. "I've been
paying $2 a bottle for a face tonic, as it
Is called, and it hasn't done for me
what your humble piece of ice has for
you. After this I'm going to look for
my cosmetic in the refrigerator."
""o Whiten the Teeth.
To whiten the teeth an excellent pow
der is mude by mixing one ounce of
chloride of lime, ten ounces of prepared
chalk, a half ounce of Peruvian bark
and one tenspooiiful of myrrh. This
should be used once a day until the
teeth tire sufficient Iy white, when it is
best to discontinue it for an ordinary

To remove tartar, the disfiguring and
obstinate yellow discoloration which
forms nt the base of the teeth, try dip
ping the brush in powdered magnesia
and rubbing it up and down over the
teeth as well as across. Dental floss
should be drawn between the teeth
at least twice a week to keep them
free from food obstructions, such as
