Well, woman has got them or it at last. No, not the ballot. The well, whatever it is, Bhe's got it. t It's the suffragette skirt, and is to forever banish the hobble and the slit affair. An expert who has looked the importation over it's an importation and that'll help some says, "It has two pockets one on each side just where men Lave theirs; li hooked up inside the left hand pocket; is the direot opposite to the hobble and the slit because there is plenty of goods in the skirt, and its general effect resembles Turkish harem trousers except that it is not fastened at the ankles. When it becomes popular it will give a new meaning to that classic jingle, "In My Harem." Keep your eyes open for surprises on the streets. Anything to shelve the split skirt, anythow. And, thank goodness, she has pockets and now can carry her own eyeglasses, gloves,

Or fr THE EMi iDAYl

ON A BEAUTIFUL DAY. O unseen Spirit! now a calm divine Cornea forth from thee, rejoicing earth and air! Trees, hills and houses, all distinctly shine. And thy great ocean slumbers everywhere. The mountain ridge against the purple sjsy Stands clear and strong, with darkened rocks and dells. And cloudless brightness opens wide and high A home aerial .where thy presence dwells. Tbe chime of hells remote, the murmuring sea. The song of birds In whispering copse and wood. The distant voice of children's thoughtless glee. And maiden's song, are all one voice of good. Amid the leaves' green mass a sunny play Of flash and shadow stirs like Inward llfet The ship's white sail glides onward far away, Vnhaunted by a dream of storm or strife. John Sterling. handkerchiefs, letters to mail, card case and other things the female of the species usually saddles on to her hapless companion who hates to have anything in his pockets but money. WHY NOT TOBACCO? JefTersonville, Ind., Aug. 21. Edward Morton, an inmate of the state reformatory here, stabbed and killed Charla Bartle, another Inmate, today. Morton said he bore Bartle no ill will, but that ho stabbed him so he could be aent to the Indiana state prison at Michigan City, where the prisonrs are given tobacco. Prisoners up to the age of 30 years are admitted to Jeffersonville. No tobacco is given to the men. This is a hardship. It would do no harm to give the prisoners tobacco and probably would create a better spirit of discipline. If they paid for It themselves, why shouldn't they have it? The weed could be taken from them as a disciplinary ' punishment and there are a lot of men who would behave themselves if they feared losing the solace of a smoke or a chew. ".NOT TO BE OVfcBLOOKED Story comes from one of the mayor of Gary's newspapers lliat he is to be embalmed In motion-pictures and hizzoner's portly figure is to be shown before the great unwashed In the foreign district theatres each evening. Also stated that the various improvements will be shown by the screen. The historian going back over the record of Mr. Knotts In his career as mayor of Gary will find some Interesting sidelights, which for lack of time, probably will be eliminated. "THE STAFF OF LIFE." Professor T. B. ' Wood, of Cambridge, lecturing at the Royal Institution, London, exposed the pretensions of bread. "The 'staff of life" he said, has been masquerading as a valuable food on the strength of the protein it contains, but it has .now been dis covered that half of that protein is composed of glutominic acid, of which the human system requires but a minute quantity, while the remainder is split up into a dozen or fifteen other products of considerable value to animal life, but which are necessarily found in bread only in almost infinitesimal proportions. "In order to obtain sufficient quantities of the latter on a bread dietary, the system would have to cope with a vast amount of waste glutominic acid. "What we want to encourage people to do," Professor Wood declaredv " is not to worry about eating this kind of bread or that kind of bread, but to mix other things with their bread In order to get protein better fruited to animal requirements than is this extraordinarily lopsided protein Which is derived from bread." HE SHOULD WORRY. The bet plan for a man to pursue who wants to sleep well of nights is to get into some business of his own and let the other fellow worry With the office seeking: and the office. -Bowling Green Messenger. This advice is gratitutous and it is the best little advice ever handed out but it will have about as much effect on the man who itches for office as a syringe full of water would have in putting out a furnace fire. QUEER BUGS AT PIERS. These are busy days for the transatlantic steamships and one sees queer actions at the piers sometimes.

The departure of one of the French liners a few days ago was made live

ly by the late arrival of a man of about forty-five years, who was possessed with a mania for kissing everybody in sight. He kissed the minister, his chauffeur, a man in a Panama straw hat and his own wife, who happened to be crowded in the confusion around him into his near presence. He would have kissed the captain, too, if he had not fled while the man with the kissing b,ug was reaching out for more victims. Gues3 we'd better .rejoice that we stayed fit home if the gang plank has come to be such a scene of demonstratiw uess. CAKELESS PARENTS. Edwardsville, 111.. Aug. 21. Acting upon the suggestion, playfully given by Hairy Johnson, a neighbor, that she throw his 5 year old son. Joseph, Into his arms from a roof thirty feet from the ground, Mrs. Edward Janis of Edwardsville yesterday tossed the lad over the edge.. Johnson missed the catch. The boy struck a brick pavement and suffered injuries which may result in his death. Upon realizing what she had done, Mrs. Janis went into hysterics, and it was two hours before friends could calm her. Heaven pity the tots born into such bone-head families! Can anyone see any sense in the acts of some parents insofar as the children's safety is concerned? It was not long ago that a mother not very far from here gave a sick boy a gun to play with while he was convalescent in bed and the lad shot himself. We are all acquainted with the mothers who have left their babies where they have pulled hot water over on themselves and been scalded to death. Otners permitted to play with bonfires that caused fatal ending. There are parents who permit children to have firearms: to drive powerful touring cars; to run the streets climing on wagons etc. AWAY WITH SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS. While of course there is always danger of the pendulum swinging too far let us as a people be glad, let us be grateful that prudery is getting into such disrepute. Away with the conventional prudes and uplifters of hands in holy horror! Let ua have our minds clean and open. Dispense with the secret blushes. A writer In the London opinion so well puts it when he says:- - .-, , ; -. f , The truth la that the fre mind has made inevitable the fre ankle. Our girls are no longer content to be tried up like bales of cotton. They have learned the use of their leprs on the bicycle, on hoiseback and in the hockey field. The -masculln leg Is not a Veiled mystery. Why should the feminine letr be regarded as a dreadful secret dedicated to the allurements of the ballet? After all, our girls may not be quite so bold and quite so bad as we, in our flaming- innocence, imagine. Terhaps they are right In assaulting the stupid tyranny of sex. Perhaps "they are wise .In forcing us to bear tho shattering revelation that the end justifies the means. Perhaps they are doing a great ar.d noble deed In delivering us from the delusion that the less we see of them the better. There is no doubt that they are rapidly emerging from the chrysalis of convention. They are asserting their right to be human beings and not bundles of obedient duplicity. They are shedding their self-conselousness aa well as their clothes. The sooner we shed our self-ronsciousness the better. Random THINGS AND FLINGS. MAYOR Shank of Indianapolis is now having bees sting him to cure rheumatism. This is a whole iot better than having some doctor sting him and not get cured either. TOLIj Note that Senator Gavit, TUB the lone bull, moose in the HELL. Indianny senate, is one of the chief owners of the new cemetery at East Gary. Well, the other three exeeulves of the Indiana bull moose party state committee are respectively, a preacher, an undertaker and coffin maker. Can't w ring in a liveryman and proceed with the obsequies? NO WONDER that the 'stermed old Indianapolis Star is frantically printing that T. R.- will try to come back to the republican party in 1916. 1IKAK5T papers are again tnit-nt for war with Mexico. Every time thnt tbe rebels steal a few rows fnni the Hearst Mexican ranch old William Randolph froths blue foam anil wants lOO.OOO soldiers sent to stop the Outrajses. MY STER IOt'S looking bundle found underneath Mayor Gaynor'a window won't be opened because it is feared to be dynamite. Only two weeks ago "bomb" that Andy Carnegie got turned out to be some Liniberger cheese. Sad state of affairs when wealthy New Yorkers are so nervous t'nat they mistake every little gift of sauer kraut, headcheese, and flap jacks aa bombs and infernal machines.

Although almost everything seems to be going against Got. Sulzer of New York these days, he still has a few fiiends who stand lovally by him.

"JOHN D., JR., GIVES 10 CENTS TIP TO WAITER." Headline. Considering the high cost of gasoline it was bad form for the unfeeling waiter to expect any more than a dime.
