LOCUSTS A BLESSING.
If this locust story emanated from

with respectful doubt. .But coming
from Wheeling W, Va, which has less'

plague of seventeemyear locusts has
turned into a blessing.

men—haters with no babies at all. What
is Feminism. anyhow?
Less than forty-eight hours after the
taking of Vera Cruz by American ma-
rines, I was present in Cooper Union,'
New York, at a great mass-meeting.
‘Ilastlly arranged, advertised only. by
robscure paragraphs in two or three
newspapers, and by a. flaming poster
on the walls of this great fortress of
free speech. the "Women's Meeting
to Protest Against War“ had attract-
ed‘ an immense and eager audience.
inbout half men. half women.
i The speeches were all. by women.
Diverse in character and appeal, as
:the personalities of the speakers. yet
I they all struck repeatedly the keynote
for what has been called ”The Larger
Feminism.‘ The resolutions adopted
to send to President Wilson struck it
i still more strongly:
‘W hereas, since time began, women
have been devoting their best efforts
'to the saving of human life, it is eml.
‘nently fitting tlht at this crucial time
in our historyfivve should protest in
‘burning words against the tragic folly
iof involving this country in war with
Mexico"
Strongly, too was it struck in the
decision of the meeting to form ' a
permanent committee to pass the tld
ings of that meeting .to women ‘all
through the country With the purpose
of repeating the women’s meeting of
protest against war in every town and
v hamlet throughout the land.

" to protect and conserve life; it is
net new that they have risen to do
their duty as they saw it. even at a

Thert is no hint, in the writings or
speeches of the real leaders of the
feminist movement of substituting a
woman's world for man’s. But there
is an unceaslng demand for woman‘s
right to take her place as the co-opcr-
ator of man, for freedom to do
larger work os woman.
It Is for this that she asks a voice in
the councils of the nation.
Woman alone. say the feminists

failed at conserying the human inter-

VISION SIN THE EYES.
Why It Don Not Appear Abaoiutely
Dark When You Wink.
When a person winks his eyes he
momentarily covers the entire eyeballs
any everything therefore should turn
absolutely black and be in total dark-
ness for the instant. As a matter of
fact, he- -*certainly is in total darkness,
but he is unconscious of the same.
The reason he is unconscious is that
the eye is incapable of removing a cer
tatn view from itself until an eighth of‘
a second has elapsed. So the view seen
just before the ball goes into eclipse
continues to be seen for an eighth of a
second. But as the‘ eye is not covered
by the lid as long as this, a new—view
arrives to supplement the old view be-
fore the old one has vanished. Thus
the darkness is not noticed, although
there is no doubt that it exists.
I The same ppculihrity oi the eye en-
;ablos moving pictures 10 have their
being. It also Is the reasou why a
lighted torch‘whirled rapidly amunii
shows a path instead of a sequence or
torches. .Also why a rapidly rotating
wheel did not show its spokes. if a
snapshot‘ be taken of such a,_whecl it
does show 'the spokes. however, arid
proves theiabove fact of pertinence.
