DARK HORSE WINS

STATE PRESIDENCY

Miss Vido Newsome Chosen Hejwl of Federation of Women's Clubs.

A SURPRISE TO MANY

Mrs. Ralston Elected First, and Dr. Amelia Second Vice President.

INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 25. Miss Vido Newsome of Columbus, the dark horse In the race for the presidency of the State Federation of Women's clubs, was elected over Mrs. Clarke Fairbanks of Fort Wayne and Dr. Helen Baumgartner of Rockport yesterday. It was believed the race was between Mrs. Fairbanks and Miss Baumgartner and Miss Newsome was not believed to have the strength that she displayed. Mrs. Samuel M. Ralston, of Indianapolis, was elected first vice-president and Dr. Amelia of this city was elected second vice-president. The other officers elected were: Mrs. Robert A. Ogg, Greencastle, recording secretary; Mrs. Ella Miers, Crawfordsville, corresponding secretary; Mrs. Leon Stern, Terre Haute, treasurer; Mrs. H. F. Foster, Ladoga, auditor; Mrs. G. Mitchell, Bedford, general Federation secretary; Mrs. James B. -Goodrich, Winchester, trustee. The federation adopted a resolution, indorsinb votes for women. Anticipated heated opposition to the resolution failed to develop. Almost every speaker before the federation urged equal suffrage. Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker, of Austin, Tex., president of the General Federation, was the principal speaker t at last evening's session. During her talk on "Dangers That Threaten the American Home," she held her audience keenly interested. In the afternoon Dr. Caroline Hegder, of Chicago, an authority on social hygiene, made an earnest plea for the better education of girls In preparation for meeting the problems that they must face as future mothers. Mrs. Pennybacker in her talk emphasized that one of the dangers threatening the American home is a tendency to eliminate the father as a factor in developing that character of children. She voiced the fear that the present life, which takes the father away from home, where heis so greatly needed, may work to the detriment

of future American manhood and womanhood. "Can not we mothers make the page of girlhood so beautiful," she said, "that our daughters will not want to turn it over to see the coming womanhood?" She criticised the mother who allows her daughter to enter the contract of marriage unprepared for the homemaklng task she must undertake. "While we women of the federation are working for laws of every sort, would It not be well," she asked, "to make one that will not allow a young woman to marry until she can make bread fit for a king that king, the American man?" To the lack of financial understanding in the home she laid many of the tragedies of life and voiced it as her opinion that every girl from childhood should have an allowance which she must spend judiciously and thus learn how to take her place when she becomes one of those 90 per cent who do the spending of the world's money. Cites Vital Statistics. Dr. Hegder cited statistics to show that there has been a decrease in the Jiumber of surviving children whose mothers are college-educated women. She contended that the fact proves the American college is neglecting a vital duty that of training young Vomen for motherhood. Dr. Hegder condemned any educational system that does not hold the health of the individual as of first Importance. Education in the past, she eaid, has done nothing tot help the f?irl in the tremendous responsibility that falls upon her as a mother. Urges Health Crusade. Dr. Severance Burrage, head of the Indiana Society for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, asked the assistance of the club women in the crusade against the "white plague." He emphasized the need of teaching children "the pospel of right living." Dr. J. H. Ford spoke on the growing tendency toward cancer and its prevention. Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, asked the assistance of the women in preaching the "Indiana Child Creed." as prepared by Virgil H. Lockwood. The creed declares that every child has the inalienable right to be born free from disease, free from deformity and with pure blood in its veins; to be loved, to have its individuality respected, to be trained wisely in mind, body -and soul; to be protected from disease, evil influence and evil persons, and to have a fair chance in life. Dr. Charles P. Emerson, dean of the Indiana university school of medicine-, talked on "The Message of Modern Medicine." which, he said, must be expressed in laws that will prove a benefit to humanity. He outlined briefly a number of measures which. If enacted into law, he said would go far toward conserving the health of the public, and asked the assistance of the women in bringing about the passage of such laws. Urges Health Measures. Resolutions were passed indorsing the employment of civic and school nurses, the propagation of healthful habits of life and a rigid supervision of tuberculosis. It was the sense of the convention that women should serve upon all boards of state institutions wherein women and children are detained. It was resolved that women should be on school boards and on factory inspection bureaus; that matrons should be in charge of large Industrial plants and women deans or matrons in charge of high schools. The federation declared for ordinances prohibiting boys under 10 years of age to solicit sales on streets, and declared for a limitation upon the hours when boys between 10 and 16 "shall be permitted to solicit sales in the streets. This resolution included a clause that "no girl shall ever follow any street trades.

Most Dangerous of Minor Ailments. Of the minor ailments a cold is by far the most dangerous, not in itself, but the serious diseases it so often leads to. Pneumonia and consumption always start with a cold. When you have a cold you are much more likely to cqntract the infectious diseases such as diphtheria, scarlet fever and whooping cough. Colds are easily cured, in fact, Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is famous for its cures of this most common ailment, and is pleasant and safe to take. Why take such desparate chances when so reliable and trustworthy a medicine may be obtained for a quarter. For sale by all dealers. (Advertisement)

FEVER GERMS SENT TO WEALTHY WOMEN

CHICAGO, Oct. 25 The writer of the mysterious threatening letters demanding money and enclosing millions of yellow fever germs who attempted to extort money from Mrs. Julius Rosenwald and Mrs. Frederick W. Steele in Chicago, sent his poison letters to wealthy women in Pittsburg and St. Louis. The postoffice authorities admitted that they had investigated similar letters in those cities, but declined to divulge the names of the women who had been threatened. So far as the inspectors have learned none of the germ letters has brought any return to the writer.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to euro deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and wbeu it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamatlon can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY. & CO., Toledo. Ohio.

Salts, Calomel, Pills, act on Bowels Like Pepper Acts in Nostrils.

Get a 10c box now. Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation. The condition is perfectly natural. It is just as natural as it for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles. So all old people need Cascarets. One might as well refuse to aid weak eyes with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels must keep active. This is important at all ages, but never so much as at fifty. Age is not a time for harsh physics. Youth may occasionally whip the bowels into activity. But a lash can't be used every day. What the bowels of the old need is a gentle and natural tonic. One that can be constantly used without harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets, and they cost only 10 cents per box at any drug store. They work while you sleep. Adv.
