subordination or openly seeks to change
existing conditions. Any one of the first
three methods is degrading to the self
respectind dignity of woman. while the
last puts her in a position of seeming
antagonism to the sex with whom she
should he in accord. As home makers
and keepers. as largely the trainers of
the youth of the land in mental. moral
and physical development. as wage
earners, taxpayers. actors on nearly ev-
ery stage occupied by men. have women
no responsibility in the upbuilding and
evolution of this republic? Do they ovvo
no duty to themselves and it? Their
present position is most degrading. The
mothers and daughters of the nation are
political uoneutltios, peers only of the
mentally“ unsound, corrupt and aliens.
Does this enuoble the race? No. A race
cannot rise to its full stature until moth-
erhood and fatherhood are equally ilflll‘
cred, and a republic of the people can
never be so in factuntil both sexes have
full expression at its ballot box. Woman
needs to feel her share of tho responsi-
bilities of citizenship. and the republic
needs her power. "—Ncw York Tribune.
Don't ‘Mufffe the Throat.
While connoisseurs of feminine beau-
ty rave over the perfection: of a swaoliko
throat. the fact remains that many ox-
trcmely beautiful women have extreme-
ly short necks, to which no amount of
care can add an inch. But whether a
woman’s throat is swanliko or other-
wise matters but little, ill these days of
chill winds. The possessors of all sorts
of necks are confronted with the neces-
sity of protecting themselves against
colds or personal discomfort. Many are
tempted to mpflio up their throats in the
becoming furs that make almost any
face distingue, but the best advice that
could be given to the ones who want
lovely throats is~—dcn't. .
The book, like the face, thrives best
under Mother Nature‘s care, and high
collars, feather boas and fur collars (fllll'
not help but create a tenderness that is
disastrous to beauty.
But those things are fashionable just
now. and after all it is worth some ear--
rifles to he just in style. and the only
thing to do until the lgw collars oulup
in again is to take such euro of the throat
that almost nodaumgc will be done. In
the first place, the neck should never be
washed in warm water without a dash
of cold, pure water to follow it. and on
general principles the (-old bath is (it'-
citlcdly the bust. ’
Again, it will be found that a gontlu
massage of the upper chest and the neck
before retiring will be followed by a
tuning up of but muscles and a gout-ml
itnpruvotnvut in the curves of the throat.
When high collars are worn, if they an-
lurge ellough to allow freedom of move~
mm”, the chances are that the skin nu.
tier them will keep soft and healthy.
and if, when the fur collar or boa is
taken off the tissues are found to be
moist and overheated, a thorough rub.
hing with a soft towel is kept up for a
few minutes the reaction will restore
the weakened muscles—New York Ad-
