The boy were writing home, some to their mother, others to their wives, and those who had sweethearts did not forget them. The writing desk, the registry department shelf, the win dow where stamps are delivered, and even the rest below the boxes, not to mention the windows, were filled with the soldier boys' letters, where the writers elbowing each other, accompan ied their attitude to the position of the desk on which they happened to write. The first comers made a pre tence of style, with pen, ink and suita ble paper; next were the boys writing with Indelllble pencil on note paper which was plastered against the wall, while the unmarried youths struck a romantic devotional attitude on one knee and scribbled away with an ordi nary pencil on a postal card.

The right to vote and the rltfht to hold property both originally depended on the ability to right. A few day ago at a meeting of the opponent of equal suffrage In New York, the statement was once more made that women should not be allow ed to vote because they cannot fight. Tli's argunn nt ha Ix eii used many times and refuted many times, but, like other fallacies. It die hard. It is a survival from the days when flKhtlng was the most honorable calling in life, when it was the main business for noblemen and even fr kings. Thnt it should still urvle In our own peace ful and Industrial age. when the ef fort ot civHIiid imtnkind Is to prevent wars, whether public or prlate, la one of those anomalli which can only le explained by the f.u t that e are all of us, more or less. Inconsistent. If the ability to fight Is to be the test of the abllliy to vote, then the ballot should only be given to men within the fighting age namely, from IS tu to or 45 years. This would de prive us of th wise counsels of the men over 43 years of age. a depriva tion which could 111 afford. The Idea that the ballot Cannot be given to women because they are not fighters is a survival of feudalism, of a military age and cast of thought. But In feudal times the right to hold property also depended upon the abil ity to fight for It. The feudal lord hell their estates directly from th king, and, In lieu of rent, they did mil itary svrvic, Th.y agreed to provide thtir royal master with a certain num ber of fighting men In tlm of war, each lord appearing at the head of hi little army unless disabled by age or Infirmity. But In order to provide the required quota of soldiers, each earl or baron called upon those next be neath him In rank, who held their lands from him and in their turn rais ed a band of fighting men. In a word, the title to real estate was given to him who could fight In hi own per son and In those of his followers. Yet even in these days, women sometimes held lands and were allowed to send substitutes. If anyone now should attempt to say that women could not hold property because they could not fight, nor bring a band of fighting followers Into the neid, everyone would say "What anti quated rubbish Is this? Everyone' property is defended by the police and In ruse of need by the army." And yet those who pride themselves upon their logic, solemnly tell us that wom en must not vote because the vote, In a by-gne military age, depended upon the ability to fight.
