DUD VCglU lUHi I.y moment to put them la E. H. NORMS, Proprietor Why does woman chafe under re etraint of sex? Why revtle the hand of nature? Why discard, the skirts that civilization has clung to tines the beginning of time? Why lay aside; this hallowed garment that has wiped the tears of sorrow from the faoe of childhood? In its sacred embrace every generation has hidden its faoe In shame; clinging to its motherly folds, (ottering children have learned1 to play hide and seek and from It, youth learned to reverence and respect womanhood. Can man think oS hfs mother without this consecrated garment? Why this Inordinate thirst for er? Is not woman all powerful? Mao cannot enter this world without her consent, he cannot remain In peace without, her blessing and unless she sheds tears of regret over his departure, he has lived In vain. Why thla longing for civic power when God baa niade "her ruler over all? Why crave authority when man bows down and woi ships ber? Man has given woman his iieart, his name and his money.

What more does she want?

As an agency for morality, I wouldn't give my good old mother's home made gowns for an the suffragette's constitutions and by-laws in the world. At a power for purifying society, I wouldn't give one prayer of my saintly mother for all the women's votes In Christendom.

At an agency for good government, 1 wouldn't give the plea of a mother's heart for righteousness for all the oaths of office in the land, There is more power in the tmlle of woman than In an act of congress There are greater possibilities for good government In ber fumtly ot laughing children than in the cabinet of the president of the United States. The destiny of this nation Met In the home and not in the legislative halls. The hearthstone and the family Bible will ever remain the source ot our Inspiration and the Acts of the Apostles will ever shine brighter than the actt of Congress. This country is law-mad. Why add to a statute book, already groaning under Its own weight, the hysterical cry of woman? If we never had chance to vote again In a lifetime and did not pass another law In twenty five years, we could survive the or deal, but without home, civilization would wither and die.

Not until Callsta had intprprflted the meaning of those words did she find her voice; thi she said blandly; "I came for I'm wrapping up my drittluuis bundlei." Seeing what the wanted lying on Margaret! desk, she went for them.

Meanwhile, a brave control touched the quivering lips of the elder gtrL She was indeed fortunate, she thought, that it was only Calista who had discovered her momentary aberration. For that was what it was. How could It be anything else? What girl with any pride would allow herself to- No, the hadn't cried! The man did not live who could make ber weep for him. "You'll return what you don't need, Callsta, dear?" she said, sweetly. "Yes," answered Callsta briefly, and went And then.

Just to prove to herself that she had regained her Margaret Wesley looked again at that picture In her band looked, and felt a quick contraction of the throat, a sudden piercing sting upon her eyeballs. And down upon the picture dropped a tear. Callsta, on the other side of the door, was saying to herself: "She was going to cry. Her eyea were teary. It was Jasper's picture was trying to hide." And then, childlike, la spite of her surprise the gathering forces of her sympathy were completely overwhelmed to the demands of Christmas.

And why not? After all. Callsta's mind was too youthful to be deeply concerned about lover's quarrels and broken engagements and such things. And she had made such marvelous purchases. Indeed as they lay spread out on the bed It did seem as if only a genius or a little girl could have reached such decisions. There was a really lovely box of handkerchiefs, embellished with the pinkest of pink paper, for mother.

That gift had put a tremendous hole in her pocketbook. And a pair of suspenders for daddy. These two presents were the Brit purchased, and while Callsta still held the leash la her fancy.
