ET EDITH M. BOND.
FfcJW peopie realize much leas appre
ciate the) good work done by the
Young Women'! Christian Associa
tion In a city like Portland. Although
tnore or less familiar with the operations
tf this organization In other cities, I must
confess that until my Portland experi
ence I had never realized the full meas
ure of good deeds being dally per
formed by this body of earnest women
who devote much of their time and money
lor the benefit of their less fortunate sis
ters. The "T. W.." as it is affectionately
termed by Its members, never closes Its
hospitable doors; day and night It stands
ready to receive homeless and friendless
women who are in need of Its attention.
In addition to the many branches of its
routine work. the institution has a spe
cial representative in the person of the
night matron at the Union Station, who
lias through her tact, common sense and
isterllness set the erring feet of many
fcelpiess and hopeless girls into the right
path.
I entered the doorway prepared for a
more or less officious greeting the usual
stiff formality of cross-questioning.
Searching glances and patronizing man
nerisms too frequently encountered in In
stitutions of this character. I had even
mentally pictured a sharp-faced female
presiding over a businesslike looking deFk,
whose probing orbs .and pointed queries
would seek to discover whether or no I
Iwas an Impostor: an elderly maiden ac
tuated by a Christian-duty desire to be
friend a needy sister, with that need and
worthiness clearly evident, yet withhold
ing any cordial advances until the Inquisi
tion should prove the applicant's right to
lavor. And right her I met my first real
disappointment.
There were several refined-looking wo
men In the office each a secretary, as I
afterward learned and awaiting my turn
I discovered that these women were at
tending to the wants of a number of oth
er visitors like myself, with tactful pa
tience and evident cordiality that aroused
rny sincere admiration.
3ood morning.
The pleasant greeting startled me out
bf my reverie, and I turned to encounter
bright-faced little woman with a smile
piat fairly radiated sunshine.
The matron at the depot," I began
awkwardly, "told me to come up here. I
m a stranger Just arrived In the city,
and I want to find a place to stay until
I can get work."
"Oh. yes." she said encouragingly. 'And
what Is your name, please?"

conscious of a kind but searching scru-
Talk With Emmeline Pankhurst
Ruth Cameron Describes the Motherly Woman, Twice a Jailbird, Who Has Aroused Militant Spirti.
BY RUTH CAMERON.
! TRAVELED many miles the other day
to meet a woman who has twice
served her terms In prison, and over
whom at this very moment a third sen
tence hangs-a Jau bird. I suppose you
might call her.
What do you think of that?
And the Jail bird who was worth going
bo far to see. as doubtless those of my
readers who are interested In the wom
an s suffrage cause have already guessed,
was Mrs. Kmmeline Pankhurst, the first
and foremost of the famous English mili
tant suffrage party the woman who has
been turning Kngland upside down and
making its Prime Minister s life a burden
by her efforts to get the right to vote for
English women.
Whether you are a believer In woman s
auffrage or not. I am sure you will be
interested to meet through me a woman
who believes In her cause so thoroughly
that she has not only gladly gone to
prison for the sake of It, but also has
inspired many other prominent lumjhsh
jsromen to do the same.
When you read the cabled reports of
airs. Pankhurst as leading a tremendous
crowd of S0.w people in a wild attempt
to rush the House of Commons and pre
sent a suffrage petition, or as being
dragged eut of a political meeting for try
ing to ask the speaker if he believed In
woman's suffrage, or as being lugged off
to Jail by a squad of burly policemen,
5-ou probably think of a hard-featured
kjnazon moot likely with short hair and
cowhide boots don't you?
I did.
Imagine my surprise then when I found
at the New York Women's University
Club, where I met her, a slender little
weet-faced woman with beautiful gray
hair that really crinkled the way it does
In the picture, gray eyes with crinkly
lights in them that no picture could pos
sibly show, and a general air very much
more motherly than militant.
Naturally, the stories that she told of
what the women in England have done
under her leadership to get the right to
vote for women seemed the more start
ling as coming from this sweet person
ality. in the first place. Mrs. Pankhurst ex
plained to me the question that so many
people want answered why the women
of England thought it necessary to re
sort to such very unique methftoS.
"For about 50 years women la England
have been trying to get a bill to give
women the right to vote, before the Eng
lish Parliament." she said. "To do this
it was necessary to get the Prime Min
ister and the Cabinet to take the) neces
sary steps to let the bill come to a vote.
Thev tried to do this, but were refused,
on the ground that ail the time of Par
liament was pre-empted for more impor
tant matters, and that woman suffrage,
though undeniably Just, was not yet a
Question of practical politics.

tiny that seemed to be weighing he In the
balance. Apparently I was not found
wanting, for after a few questions I was
passed on to the matron, who arranged
to have me remain that night In the spe
cial dormitory' provided for such tran
sient guests as I. who are glad indeed to
'secure a clean cot bed with snowy linen,
and safe protection, for the small sum of
35 cents. But employment was the main
object of my mission, and mindful of this
fact I soon sough out the office where
this very Important branch of the T. W.
C. A. work Is carried on. It Is situated
on the second floor of the building, and
as I waited for my Interview with the sec
retary I noted several other girls obvious
ly bound on the same errand. In conver
sation with one of these, a young Jewish
girl. I learned more of the good work
being done by the Institution. My Inform
ant was a Portland young lady of good
family, I should infer, and she told mo
her only reason for wanting employment
was to be independent.
"I want to have money of my own to
spend as I like," she said. "Papa buys
my clothes, of course, but he never seems
to think I need any money." Just the
time-honored excuse offered bygirls who
elect to earn their own living in prefer
ence to the humdrum monotony of house
hold tasks.
.
The employment secretary, to whose
presence I was shortly admitted, of
fered me much good advice and friend
ly warning, bnt little else. She was
a well bred woman, as was evidenced
by the utter absence of any trace of
patronage on her part, and the gentle
tact with which she drew fdfth the de
tails of my story.
"Just what kind of work would you
like?" she asked.
"Almost any kind except general
housework," was my answer. "I have
had no experience of any sort except
in teaching a few terms In a country
school."
This latter information seemed to
give her an inspiration, and aha picked
up a letter from her desk.
"Here is Just what you would like,"
she said, smilingly, "a lady at Hood
River wants a nursery governess who
can teach mnsio and take care of two
young children, and it appears to me
that this is the very thing for you.
Twenty-five dollars a month and
board; you could not hope to' make as
much at any sort of office or store
work, and a good home would be as
sured you."
I hesitated. "But I can't teach
music, and I don't want to leave Port
land." I said. "Have you no places in
stores or as office assistants?"
She shook her head thoughtfully.
"Such positions are very seldom se
cured In this wcy." she replied. "The
applicant must present herself" at the
place of business and be engaged dl-
Premier Balfour, who Is a suffragist, and
asked him liow they could make it a
question of practical politics.
" 'Kick up a row." answered the states
man laconically. Try first one way and
then another. As soon as the public gets
used to one way, invent another.'
"The women remembered the remark
of a distinguished Englishman, that re
forms never get put through in England
till the people begin to tear down the
park railings, and they decided that the
ex-Premlerxras right. They acted on his
advice In a way that doubtless astonished
him."
"Well, iwhat did they do then? What
was the first really militant thing done
in England?" I asked eagerly.
Mrs. Pankhurst remembers that all too
well.
She told It with a fullness of dramtic
detail that I have not space to give com
pletely. The skeleton of the story Is this:
A political meeting, at which one of the
liberal candidates for office was to speak
was the occasion chosen for the first
demonstration. The women decided that
the form of the demonstration was to
take was that two of their number should
get up and ask the Liberal candidate
what he proposed to do In the matter of
woman's suffrage.

seems to be a dearth of such Jobs at
present, while the demand for domestio
help is greater than ever. I have six
good situations here now. Tou could
not possibly make enough at clerking
as a beginner to pay for your board
and room, while in a position as a do

be assured you, at least."
"But I have to references,' I ven
tured. She Bmiled sympathetically. "They

oldest daughter, who was at that time
studying law, were chosen to do the
deed.
After the speaker had finished his
speech they stood up and tried to ask the
question. They were requested to put it
on paper and did so, and it was sent up
to the speaker. They waited for an
answer. Several questions put from the
floor were answered, and several wrttten
on paper like theirs. They waited and
waited, until finally the speaker rose to
go, and then, seeing that he intended to
pay no attention to them, the two girls
got up and tried to put their question
from the floor.
They were' promptly and roughly
dragged out by the officers.
Outside a crowd gathered and the girls
stopped to explain their object.
The next day they were arrested on a
charge corresponding to our charge of
blocking the traffic, and sentenced to
several days in prison.
"And how do you think I felt?" said
Mrs. Pankhurst, the blood rising to her
cheeks at the very recollection. "You
have heard people say that we did things
for notoriety. Do you think I enjoyed
havingTny daughter in prison and some
of my oldest friends cutting me dead on
the streets for that's what they did. Do
you think any woman would have gone
through that for notoriety?"
That was the only time Mrs. Pank
hurst showed the slightest sign of weak-

sort of employment. One's face Is
often one's best recommendation, and I
am certain you would have no trouble
in getting a good situation. The diffi
culty is that so many applicants now
are so- woefully Incompetent."
I murmured my thanks and took my
departure, Miss B. assuring me that
she would offer me the first opportun
ity that presented itself.
Down stairs my cheery little friend
of an hour before again approached
me and smilingly said:
ness in speaking of anything she had
undergone for her beloved cause.
Of her own Imprisonment she spoke
with entire indifference. She has been
imprisoned twice once for heading a dep
utation of 13 women to the House of Com
mons and the other time for putting up
poBters inviting people to come and help
the suffragists "rush" the House of Com
mons. Both times her health was so del
icate that she spent all of the terms in
the hospital ward of the prison.
A sentence suspended until a legal
point can be decided is even now hang
ing over her head.
"And aren't you terribly afraid it will
be decided the wrong way and that you
will have to go to Jail again?" I asked.
"Why. no," she said, "It can't be de
cided wrong. Either way will help the
causa. If we win our point that means
that all the others have been imprisoned
unjustly. And if they decide against us,
we" that means Mrs. Pankhurst and 90
other women, also under arrest "will go
to prison and protest by the hunger
strike."
The hunger strike be It explained to
any one who Is not familiar with that
term is a peculiar method of protest
that some of the suffragettes have put
into practice.
Considering themselves unjustly im
prisoned, numbers of them tave simply
refused to eat. One woman fasted six
days and five hours. When the women
reached a dangerous state they were
freed.
Lately, however, the government has
taken to feeding the strikers with a
stomach pump that is, to pumping the
food down their throats. This method
has been known to result fatally and Its
use has 'caused a storm of protest In
England which was, of course, exactly
what the suffragettes wanted.
If, on her return to England, the court
decides against her. and Mrs. Pankhurst
goes to prison, she, too, will refuse to
eat, and will probably be fed In this
dangerous way.
On only one suffrage question does
Mrs. Pankhurst refuse to speak. She
absolutely refuses to give any advice as
to the way the suffrage campaign should
be conducted in America.
"Why, that would be as impertinent
as if I went Into another woman's kitch
en and gave her advice," she said. "I
only came over here to tell you how we
have dona it. not how yon should do it
Conditions are different and you know
that far better than I."
As the great "Votes for Women" lady
finally rose to terminate the interview, I
put one last question. '
"What war the hardest thing you ever
did for woman's suffrage?" I asked.
She looked at me in thoughtful won
derment for a moment, and then this
worn ax who " has undergone danger and
suffered imprisonment, .who has dedicated
her strength and given her fortune for
the ca'ise of woman's suffraga, said
simply.
3ut I never did anything hard tor
woman's TCffrage. The only hard thing
would be not to- be able to work for it."
Doesn't that sentence help to explain
why this Mrs. Pankhurst has the power
to fire thousands of women to do any
thing for the cause she loves?

"What success-'
"None," I replied, forlornly.
"Well, cheer up," she said. "Port
land Is full of opportunities for bright
girls, and remember that you are al
ways welcome here when you need ad
vice or encouragement."
Asking my name which she had not
done up to this time she told me hers,
and then introduced me to several of
her colleagues. Later ske showed me
over the first floor of the building, ex
plaining its many delightful features.
"Come In tonight. Misa Bond," she
Good Old
It Cost More to
Turners Falls (Mass) Reporter.
EVERY other minute comebody pops
up to tell us how much .more it costs
to live nowadays than It did, say, JO
or 25 years ago. "They" say It takes
all a man can earn to keep soul and body
together, and there is no Joy in living.
These earnest complainers can back up
their statements by such solid and uncon
trovertible arguments as pork, 20 cents a
pound; eggs, 40 cents a dozen; butter, 40
copper bits for a scant IS ounces; milk,
eight or more cents a quart; beef steak,
as high as the marketman'a conscience
allows him to charge. When it comes to
clothing, millinery and shoes, the ex
hibits in the case are equally Impressive.
Granting the truth of these assertions
the fact remains that the reason it is
so hard for the average man to keep
his head above water is because what
were once considered luxuries are now
counted stern necessities, and the cause
for the general run of married men's
early silvering or loss of their hirsute
adornments is the struggle to maintain
their families In the extravagant manner
they have acquired. If people were con
tent in this year of grace with what they
used to offer family prayers over three
times a day not a few householders might
be able to lay up a quantity, of shekels
against a rainy day, Instead of growing
stooped, cranky and decrepit over the
necessity of cashing drafts on the bank
of futurity, which, as we all know, de
mands usurious rates of Interest
In the old days families thrived, flour
ished and attained honor, fame, dollars,
contentment, comiort and respect on a
simple diet composed largely of such
highly filling but cheap articles as beans,
commeal mush, oatmeal porridge, soups,
bread, potatoes, pork, fish, pot- roasts,
stews and a host of other savory eat
ables which were low In price, but re
quired more skill and time to prepare
properly than the modern housewife
cares to give. Are we satisfied with such
a diet now? No, sir, never. Now we
turn up our noses at anything less than
sirloins, ice cream, mushrooms, etc We
demand fruits and vegetables, not in sea
son! when . plenty and cheap then we
don't want them but out of season when
it takes a conroissetfr to tell the dif
ference between a strawberry and to
mato If eaten without the evidence of
the eyes then it is we insist upon having
them, and we pay the piper accordingly.
No wonder -the grocery bills for a family
make the man of the house grow pale
round the gills! In between times we
must consume 60-cent-a -pound chocolates,
and ice creams, sundaes and sodas. Why
marvel that-it costs much money to keep
our internal apparatus in such a stats
that we inevitably cultivate the fashion
able diseases of appendicitis, adenoids
and so on? The high prices of food would
not trouble us were we content to sub
sist as our good old granddaddies were.

said finally. "We have an informal
social then, and I should be glad to
introduce you to some of our girls.
Never mind if you are not a member;
you soon will be, I hope, and I
shouldn't wonder if you might turn out
one of our very best workers. Good
bye; don't forget tonight." And with
a last friendly smile she dismissed me
in order to greet some new arrivals
who claimed her- attention.
As I left -the building I felt for the
moment rather ashamed of myself for
the deception I was unwittingly prac
ticing upon these good folks, who were
so conscientious in living up to their
mttto of "noblesse oblige." Not once
had they made me feel conscious of my
shabby attire or unprepossessing per
sonality, although I felt certain that
no detail of either had escaped them.
Now that my perfidy la revealed. I
hope they may be Induced to believe
that in this case the end Justified the
means.
Miss B. had mentioned the city's free
employment bureau, and, -purred pn
by my dogged, determination to secure
a Job before night, I decided to test
its worth. Procuring; a directory in a
nearby drugstore, I found the location
of this agency, and also of several oth
ers. My onward march was resumed,
and after some delay I was soon stand
ing in the office of the city's free em
ployment bureau on Madison street.
"Tou have had no practical experi
ence except a few months of teaching,
and you wish a Job at once?"
My questioner was studying me
frankly, but as I was becoming used
to this part of the performance by now.

and nobody wants to give up the nres-ent-day
fleshpots and go back to the old
times, but having decided that we want
the good things of this present day, let
us -pay for the said blessings cheerfully
and let It go at that. "Better 50 years
'of Europe than a cycle of Cathay." Is it
not so?
Unless we are ready to go back to
wearing clothes such as the makers of
history did, it were wiser not to harp so
much on the matter of cost. Years ago a
man got a new suit when he needed it
and wore it Summer and Winter till it
simply refused to longer hang together.
Now he has to get a suit for business,
one for around the house, formal oc
casions, informal occasions, vacation.
Spring, Summer, Pall and Winter and
the Lord knows what all. Certainly the
Gibson man of today is a decidedly bet
ter looking specimen than was his an
cestor of homespuns and hobnail boots,
and is much pleasanter to contemplate,
but. you can't put on style without pay
ing for It, and as long as we must have
fur-belows what is the sense of com
plaining because one can't get them by
the simple act of wishing ;
In women's clothes the difference be
tween then and now Is so very marked
that no odious comparisons need be made.
It costs much more to keep the modern
women in hair rats, massage creams,
perfumery, etc., than it did to clothe,
shoe, hat and glove her grandmother,
and' she Is a decidely expensive, albeit
a charming luxury. "Needles and pins,
needles and pins, when a man marries,
his financial troubles begin," for It costs
all he can rake and scrape to keep his
wife looking as well as the other ladies
on her visiting list, and even then he Is
probably reminded at least once a day
that she "hasn't a single decent thing
to wear." The same is trus with the
children. Nobody short of a millionaire
has any business to raise-children. They
cost a big fortune, every one of them,
and race suicide has a very tangible and
reasonable excuse for being.
And so it goes throughout the whole
scale of existence. Who wants to bother
with firewood, washtubs, kerosene lamps,
wells, .etc., nowadays? Now the poorest
day laborer revels in electricity, steam
best, marbled tile bathrooms, hot and
cold water apparatus, shower baths,
washing machines, etc. You can't have
these things on air, and If you spend
money on tLem there Is so much less to
hoard, naturally. Now we have lace
curtains, oriental rugs, diamond rings,
automobiles and all the train of goods
and chattels that make life worth liv
ingand accordingly expensive. We have
to maintain bungalows and motor boats,
take long vacations and go abroad for
our health. We have regular appoint
ments with the dentist, the doctor, the
masseuse, the dancing master and all
the other institutions which add to our
knowledge and appearance and well be
ing, if not to our happiness. We do
habitually, things which
I did not flinch as I answered In the
affirmative.
"Can you cook?"
"Not enough for a household Job."
"Waitress?"
I shook my head doubtfully.
"Nothing In the way of clerking or of- .
flee work?" I asked.
"Oh, no," she replied. "We have few
calls for such positions. People who want
clerks and office assistants, never go to
the employment agencies for them. The
applicant must apply personally at the
place of business."
She surveyed me again, meditatively.
"What about a place as companion and
maid to an Invalid lady?" she Inquired.
"I know of Just such a Job. The lady is
much alone, and there are no children."
. Visions of gruel, sponge baths and sick
room odors passed before me In chilling
procession and I shook my head decidedly.
"No place as nursery governess?" I
asked. "I love little .children and could
teach them, I know."
This suggestion brought a quick smile of
recollection to her kindly face and Il
luminated it with a light of happy in
spiration. "Why didn't I think of it," she
said quickly. "Why, 'It fits your case
to a T," and she began running over her
address book with nervous haste, mur
muring softly to herself as she endeav
ored to recall something. I didn't quite
understand it all, but patience is my forte
and I waited until she was pleased to en
lighten me. '
"It was last week," she said thought
fully. "A gentleman for whose family I
had recently found a waitress was in here
and wanted to secure a nurse for the
children of a friend of his. As I remem
ber it, there were three children, and
the girl was to have ' entire charge of
them. Seems to me the salary was $30
and board. Ah, here it is, but I can't
remember what the friend's address was."
A moment's reflection; then the phone
was called Into use, and soon I was hear
ing my character and general qualifica
tions as they appeared to my new-found
benefactress proclaimed to the lady at
the other end of the line. It was embar
rassing but Intensely amusing, and it
seemed to arouse the contemptuous wrath
of two waiting visitors, brave with Jew
elry and nodding plumes. They bore the
unmistakable stamp of the Vkitchen me
chanic," but the fact that what they
scented as a good Job was being wasted
on such a verdant fright as I appeared to
be was too much for their self-control,
and muttered expletives of "mutt," and
"lobster" and "green guy" plainly indi
cated the state of their feelings.
"Yes, I'll send her right up. You'll like
her, I'm certain." The agent hung up the
receiver and beckoned me to the desk.
"Here's the address," Bhe said cor
dially, "and here's a slip of Identification.
If you accept the place your employer
will notify us; If you do not take it, you
must ask her sign this paper and return
it to me. I have another place In pros
pect for you if this doesn't prove what
you want." She "waived aside thanks
with a pleasant smile and turned to ap
pease the rising wrath of the two be
spangled females.
It was noon when' I reached my desti
nation, and I was told to wait until the
lady of the house was through luncheon.
The plump little maid who answered the
door invited me into the kitchen upon
learning my errand. Here a fat Irish
cook took me under her wing with Hi
bernian motherllness and regaled me with
a good meal as she listened to my story.
I was then speeded parlorward.
A few keen questions, some moments of
silent and thoughtful scrutiny and the
deed was done. Just ten minutes after
the interview began I left the house, the
position engaged and with orders to re
port for duty at the following morning.
dreamed of by our dear old forbears. We
don't like quite so much hard work,
either, as fell to the lot of our grand
daddies, and instead of teaching our
selves and our children the grand old art
of doing without, we are brought up to
think that nothing is tco good for us, and
that If we don't gather in all the good
thLcjrs of this jolly earth and the fullness
thereof, we are being defrauded of our
birthright Why, we crowd in more hap
piness, joy, excitement and Interesting
things into a week of our lives than our
ancestors the best of them were able
to corral in months and months! For that
reason it seems particularly idiotic to be
forever growling about the expense. We
do and have things every day which the
wealthiest Individuals of years ago could
not encompass. Would we be content
with their method of spending their days?
No indeed! Everybody stayed at home
and practiced the good old recipe for
wealth. "Work like the devil and don't
spend a cent" If we follow the same rule
now we probably would not grow quite so
eloquent over the high cost of living. Cer
tainly it costs moro to live in 1909 than
it did in 108, but let us give thanks, for
bless the Lord it's worth all it costs!

London Times.
The complete crank is a kind of col
lector of causes and it is difficult to dis
cover the principle upon which he col

clothing and some insipid kind of diet are
all the same to him, and he advocates
them all with equal earnestness. He
wants men to change their lives in every
particular and protests against all the
ordinary usages of the world, both in
great and in small things. He does not
believe that there Is any Instinctive wis

tradition and experience. For him wis
