No one but another woman ever realise its soft and fluffy appeal to your refined barbarism. A Hottentot belle thrilled with the same ecstacy of delight when she thrust a gorgeously colored fea ther through her corkscrewy curls. She felt ha dressed up and galadayish as you do. Tour thrill is more exquisite than hers, for It Is the tttlllatlpn of pleased vanity carried to the nth power. It Is finer, more delicate, less garish but Just as cruel. It's worse. Her feather may have fallen from the molting bird. Or It may have come from the tail of the tropical creature whose Plump breast went Into the pot. But yours comes from the body -of the mother bird who is killed when her babies need her. Why the enormity of your cruelty is as bad as the stench which hangs over the swamps of Florida after the tall hunters have passed and the little heront die of hunger. All the pldmy mothers of thous ands of new hatched baby birds are skinned and packed and the skins sent to be made ready to decorate you. - But listen. This is not the worst. You are like a tender-hearted lunatic when some one pulls your cat's tall. You get Into a splendid rage when a coal wagon driver beats his horse.

It Is the one. It counts Inestimably more than any other. And It counts to each man and each girl well, you know what It means to you. Then what must a man think of you when you pay an enormous price for a badge that will imwk you as a creature of such blind ness to her own and to humanity's inter ests that she actually abuses . her own highest function, outrages motherhood. It's only the motherhood of a bird, you say. Yes, but that bird's motherhood rep resents the great principle. ' And, in your wilful, cruel vanity you are,, willing to con tinue to do violence to the' maternity that decent beings reverence. What possesses you and other women like you to purposely run down your own value? Cn't you see that every tiny blow you strike at the essential experiences of your sex Is making your Individual experi ence harder? Are you trying to make a toy of yourself and the things for which you stand? Don't you know, that you de serve and receive consideration In., this world because you are . necessary to Its progress?

It seems unthinkable that law should have to force women to respect mother hood. But it has come to that. And you are the one who haa brought this disgrace upon your sex. Bhame upon you. Your flaunting feather Is the funeral plume for another mother bird and her babies.

I am afraid that we have pub llshed to the world, through our yellow press and by other means, a good many tall stories. "Thus an English teacher once said to a pupil: 'What Is a miracle?

Ac cordingly he was brought before a court martial for trial. Now, the young fellow ia a great favorite with his comrades, several of whom were on the court -It was their desire that, while he should be sufficiently Impressed to put a future curb upon bis appetite, nothing should appear to show he was ever really drunk. One of the witnesses examined was an old negro employed about the quarters ot the young officer. The prosecution ex pected to prove by him that the defendant had come home on a certain night In a state of exuberant intoxication. "Did you see Lieutenant - on a cer tain night when he came home?" the old darky was asked by the Judge advocate. Talk About Taxes "What I can't vnderstant about you peo ple," said the man from Winnipeg to the group In the smoking car, "Is the way you talk about the weathor. You are at It morn ing, noon, and night- It is the subject of half your conversation." "Why, don't you talk about tt up there?" waa asked. "In three years I don't think I have heard the weather spoken of five times, and then it was by American travelers." , "But you must talk ot something?" "Oh, of course." "If not about the weather, what then?" Moslem Women Alike J A most Interesting part of the proceed ings of the recent Moslem congress held at Hellopolls, Egypt, waa a discourse on Moslem women by Mane. Badlah, a woman famed among her people for her learning and advanced views. Among other pro posals she asked for Moslem women the right to attend prayers and sermons in the moeques; to have primary education of young women made obligatory on all par ents who can afford the expense; to In crease the number of nursing homes, and Before and After Taking Iw July 18, 1911.

His had been early duty en the morning following the night in ques tion, and such Injunction to wake and call him early, they reasoned, showed lens an Intoxication than ' a sense of his official duty. Accordingly one eager friend on the court, in order to clinch this, put the fal lowing: "Did Lieutenant . tell you ,Why he wanted you to wake an' call him early?"
