Enemies of woman suffrage have long held that women, if given the ballot, would im mediately develop sex consciousness in their attitude toward public questions, restrict their voting- to matters of purely feminine concern, and wholly fail to take the broad American views of state and national affairs. It has been charged that they have not, and never would acquire, a love or liking for the, principles upon, which our political system is founded" that they would be unstable, in tjieir beliefs, erratic ire1 their voting, disloyal to the . party system which is' essential to a govern ment of the, people, controlled by whims, flit about here and there regardless of principles or part, and become-the ready and willing dupes of the .demagogues and opportunists whose po-, litical aims are mean, narrow and selfish.. The country has not believed these 'argu ments agaipst woman suffrage. On the con trary, it has expressed in a great majority of the. states its firm conviction that women will make good citizens, will accept and act in ac cordance with the principles established by the founders 4f the republic, and in every way jus tify the prevailing good opinion of their sense, judgment and loyalty to American political in stitutions as they have existed since the birth of the nation. j 1 , Already the enemies of political privileges for women are pointing to incidents which they claim justify their opposition to giving them the ballot. They say thousand of them voted ; in the late primaries with never a thought or 'care forparty, to gratify a passing caprice, re gardless of its bearkig on really vital matters. We are told that already attempts are being made to organize women into political groups on an exclusively feminine basis, We cannot believe that any considerable number of women can be so misled, so foolishl as to seek to make a sex issue in American politics; or so ignorant of the fact that only through one or the other of the great national parties can any political issue be decided, as , to dream that nonpartisan feminine organiza-' tions. can by threats control the policies of either , of the great parties. Parties have favors only , ; for those associated with them, who have shown i loyalty to their principles, and who aire always ready to submit to the fair decisions of the ma jority. Only the guerrillas of politics, the minds ruled by petulance and selfishness, inca pable of understanding the American principle of party government, adopt the ,policy oi threat and reprisal. We do not think for one moment ' that the great body of sane, conservative mod ' est women can be beguiled into a position so disreputable everywhere among men iii politics.. The safe political home for every woman the only safe political home, indeed is in an ' established party- which seeks the general wel fare 6f all citizens, male or female, with special favors for neither sex. For women to remain outside the parties, or to flit from one to the other on special bids for their support, would make political gypsies of them. And the life of a gypsy, in orout of politfts. is about the last any self-respecting womandesires to live. The President and the Sugar Crop. ' ' Defenders e'f the democratic administration - have- eagerly seized on the statement of Attor ney General Palmer that the president's failure ' to authorize purchase of the Cuban sugar -crop in October is due to the refusal of congress to ,, pass laws asked by the executive. As a matter ' of fact, the president had ample authority under the law that .then existed, and if the congress, did not see fit to agree with him, it was be cause of well-supported reluctance to indefinitely extend the extraordinary powers that had been conferred on hinyforwar purposes. .Mr. Wil- ' son , was a sick man inOctober, paralyzed on his left side, totally incapable of attending to public business. His advisers were inert, fail 1 ' ing to function because no word came to them daily from the White House, outlining 'the course to pursue. Somebody pretended to ' . speak with the voice of Woodrow .Wilson. Who , thaf individual was never may be known. It is " quite certain, howVver, that the man who was ' lying in a sick , room, waiting the jtow process ' of absorption of a blood clot on the brain, was neither physically nor mentally fit to direct af .fairs. In this rather than in the excuse set up' by Mr. Palmer, may be found the real reason ' , why the president did not act in the emergency to spare his country from the blight of sugar ' speculation and profiteering -that 'has fallen on it. VThe miserable failure of the Department of ' Justice to deal with the situation is just another proof of democratic incapacity, which can not ., be explained away by saying congress failed to enact measures to protect the public.-; , v.It Pays, to Advertise or Cough Up. , ' Trof. Ford of Princeton, recently appointed , a member of the Interstate Commerce commission- by the president, . wrote a book ' about Woodrow Wilson which gratified the vanity -'.of a man who requires his commendation laid v on' thick. In that book Prof. Ford described ",the commission ,of which he is now made a member as one "with powers of interference" a statement railroad executives who have come ' in contact with it will warmly endorse. ' But fortunately for the professor, and for ; large contributors to the Wilson campaign ' funds, few if any authors of books glorifying - W V or 'monie'd gentlemen who have pro duced liberally to help elect the president, have failed (to land an ambassadorship or a place on some well paid commission. Such is the" political value of cash or flattery between book covers. "Fastenler," ' When the American day parade passed last Saturday, in the marching columns were many prominent men, heads of big concerns. .These had caught the spirit of the movement, apd marched that they might show themselves alive to the situation. That parade was primarily for the purpose oi showing the loyalty of all who took part to the American flag' and all it' means, ' the Constitution and the gov ernment that lives under it It was devised and carried out as au answer to the challenge of the forces of disorder, 'who have impudently sought to make May 1 their especial day for irtsulting the law that protects and preserves them. Therefore, those who took part in that parade were testifying to the devotion they hold for free institutions. - In, the crowds that watched them the same spirit prevailed,1 a mag nificent tribute to the purpose of the day. Yet those same crowds exhibited another aspect of the situation that is notso pleasant to con template. While our country was at war everybody took all proper opportunity of showing loyalty and patriotism. Now that the army no longer is in the field, some have laid aside, that senti ment, for the easy-going attitude of "Let George do it." They feel themselves as patriotic as ever, would in a pinch make all the sacrifices they did and more to bring victory, but they did not feel like marching. That is all. These should realize that the, combat against anarchy in this country is just as serious; al though not so spectacular, as was the battle against the Hun in Europe. Not one of hose business men who watched the parade would hesitate to pledge himself . to the support of taw and order; in fact all of them have so pledged, but they forget the effect of their ex ample. If they are? indifferent or lukewarm, how cavil they expert those .who '.look, up 'to them for leadership to be otherwise? If there is looseness in the ties that bind the citizen to the flag, may not most of it be ascribed to thh failure of the big men to properly stand forth and testify to what they believe? And if this is true, are they doing all that is incumbent on them as citizens? Are they not merely passengers, carried along by others on the journey to which they should contribute the more because of their position? If the men of substance and influence xpect that the ideals of Americanism are to be perpetuated, they must contribute to that end in a more definite way than merely applauding those who do things. , ' .".' I - - Base Ball Day in Omaha. Today we have with us the Rourke family, returned from their more or less momentous journey through the wilds of Oklahoma and southern Kansas, where they were received with what passes for hospitality in the benighted region. There the host takes in his guest and proceeds to maltreat him, making him like it. Along with the Rourkeites comes a group of Oklahomans, who njay expect to be repaid in kind. ,For it is the. opening day, of the, base ball season in Omaha, and if the weather man j can be induced to Jet up for a moment in his vagarious career, and giye us some of the over due sunshine, it will be a gala occasion out at Rourkd park. There will assemble the multi tude of devotees of ,the game, eager to hear tfie crack of the bat ok the ball, to watch the run ners tear around the bases while the fielders madly pursue the far-knocked ball, and in the bedlam of noises that goes witlw good ball game all will be happy. Nothing can approach base ball as a popular sport, 4nd Omaha has long borne a good Vame as a staunch supporter of the game. Doubters, may get proof of this if they will sojourn for1 the afternoon at the ball park, and wijness the actual proceedings. r. A Matrimonial Handicap. An eastern bride of last week received wed ding gifts' worth more than a million dollars. We wish her a long and happy life in, spite of this handicap. Those who enter holy matri mony surrounded by every luxury and but "tressed y great wealth are deprived at the "very beginning of many of the sweetest (ties which bind hearts together-and keep them tq gether, be their alliancefor better or for worse. t The husband denied the privilege of working for the support of his wife, the wife denied the opportunity of economizing and working to build a home little by little, misi many of life's richest and most cherished experiences. America has been .made great and stable and' powerful not by those born with silver spoons in their mouths, but by'the families of the poor who have married with little or nothing and worked their way up to business, social and political influence. ' ' . j Early; Garden Products. , Those whose minds find enjoyment in going back to the beginning of things will be inter ested in information for gardeners published in the Sun and New York Herald. Peru had many of their most '; highly prized .products before the beginning of the Christian era. The ancient Peruvians had potatoes, common and sweet, be fore Ireland was heard of; they had field corn sweet corn and pop corn;, they had tomatoes and . squash and beans as wellThe Peruvians garnished4he tombs of their dead with garden seeds and thus established the existence in their ancient time pi foods popular in the present. By the waV, the potato reached Ireland from South America "via Spain, Italy, France, Belgium and England.

The well . known diabolical cunning of the "Hun" Is shown in nothing more clearly than in his compelling us to go to him even for our Holy; Week music. What have our coTnposers bean doing to allow what should have been a nourishing native Industry to pass out of their hands? Why could not one of them have fore seen Instead of leaving It 't Wagner, the necessity of writing some, Good Friday Music? It Is true it .might not have been as fine as Wagner's; but patriotism might have compelled us to listen to it. It is one of the ironies of our situation that for our religious concert music on Good Friday we have to go to a German Opera! And so overpowering Is the religious feeling en gendered in some minds by that opera that even the sinners in it become fpr the moment sancti fied. I can understand most of the selections at the Queen's Hall concert creating the genuine Good Friday spirit the Prelude, the Transfor mation Music and the Grail Scene, the Good Fri day Music, and so on.' But what In the name of all the saints are the Flower Maidens doing in that galley? They are very attractive damsels, and they have some lovely music to sing; but I cannot say that I get any more specifically religious emotion from seeing or hearing them than I do from the Sixteen Palace Girls or one of Mr. John Tiller's troupes.

EVANS BEATING THE ICEMAN. Those people who cannot afford ice are up against a hard proposition during the hot weather x when it comes to milk. . Either they have to do without or else they are forced to buy from the stores in small quan tities twice a day or oftener. tin Europe during the course of the great war they learned to use dried milk to a large extent. Now that the war is over they seem dis posed to stick to dried milk and we ship a , good part of the goods to them. ' UTwo years ago the British government issued a voluminous re port on milk powder as a baby food. Dr. V. Borland, writing in the Lon don Lancet, gives directions for baby feeding when dried milk Is used. He employs a full cream dried milk. All measurements are in terms of a level teaspoonful. He disregards age en tirely and goes wholly by weight In making his formulae. Young babies are fed every three hours or a total of 'six feedings in the 24 hours. Old er babies arts fed every three and one-half hours, or a total of five feedings in 24 hours. Older babies are fed every four hours. The total number of feedings at first is five, but this is speedily reduced to four. A baby weighing seven pounds or less Is fed a number of teaspoonfuls of dried mil equal to. 9 plus the weight. If the baby weighs between seven 'and 16 pounds add 10 to get the daily allowance of dried milk. This total quantity is divided into four, five or six equal feedings, ac cording to circumstances. If the child weighs over 16 pounds tho number of teaspoonfuls of dried milk at a feeding is that of tho sec ond 6, 7, 8, 9, as the case may be. . He never goes over 80 teaspoon fuls of dried milk a day. Whenever the baby is large enough to need more food - than Is supplied by 30 level teaspoonfuls of dried milk a day he is large enough to eat milk puddings and other accessory foods. To bring dried milk back to whole milk add eight teaspoonfuls of boiled water for every teaspoonful of the dry 'powder. " Some of the British health officers advocated di luting the milk with less than eight parts of water, especially in certain baby digestion troubles. Th.ey say that certain emaciated babies and babies suffering from Indigestion do better on milk powder to which not very much water has been added. Borland says that-when a baby be ing fed milk powder . cannot be brought to the station oftener it may be all right to give directions for one month. The instructions given un der these circumstances is to in crease the daily allowance of dried milk One-half teaspoonful each week. . , ' t Adjust Food to Work. A. N. J. writes: "I was on a diet six months and lost J10' pounds, but am gaining again.' Can you please advise me what will take the fat off permanently,, or Isn't that possible?" - ; REPLY. The only way to keep fat down permanently is to maintain a prop er relation between the amount of food you. eat and the -work you do. Limit the amount of starchy food especially. Follow tio diet you ate when reducing except that the quan tities taken can be increased modarJ ately. ... ' For Neurasthenics. M. writes: !. Will you kindly! tell me whether a young woman suf fering from a long standing case of neurasthenia will benefit by mar riage? Also ought four years of good medical attention cure a neW ous breakdown? Are all cases of nervous breakdowns curable?" REPLY. Neurasthenia and nervousness and nervals breakdowns are due to the Good Recruiting Sergeant. ' Omaha. Nob., April 30. To the Editor ofjThe Bee: While waiting on a prominent street corner a few days ago. I listened to a wonderful story of long service In the ermy, by an old soldier, who waa a ser geant In the medical corps, I judged at Fort. Omaha, and wpndered why the government didn t send out more such men to do its recruiting. First, I noticed he was foreign botn man; spoke at least eight lan guages and was United States inter preter before entering the army, he said. He told of leaving a home of affluence ana wealth in the old country, by hearing stories of the army life In the United States, how he ran away, etc.; how he had fought In the Philippine InsurreC' tion; had traveled all over the wqrld while serving Uncle 8am; how he had attained his fine personal ap pearance apd health and saved enough to live snugly on a little ranch after hi retirement soon. I heard several young men say there they intended to "follow suit." It seems to me such a man as this one could secure hundreds of re cruits, as his- hjajM- experience and satisfied expression plainly snowed how squarely Undo Sam had dealt with him. Therefore, I beg you to publish this little item in your most worthy paper. v i RICHARD S. COMSTOCK. , ly poised persons. They come under the head of behavloristlcs.

Examination of the mouth by a physician would not help any. Some times the fault is with the parents, sometimes with the child, sometimes with both. Parents sometimes harm their children greatly by talking baby talk to them. If the fault Is with the child, the trouble lies in the mental processes rather than In the structures of the mouth.

PROMINENT importers and wholesale dealers in crude drugs and medicinal herbs gathered from all parts of the world do not hesitate to say that the market for the better grades of medicinal herbs, roots, oils, eto., is practically confined to the lead-. ing manufacturers of the so-called package medicines, who buy only the very best, and that the manu facturers of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup best grade of Egyptian Pepsin are .the largest users of the senna leaves in the world. The potency of a tea brewed from senna leaves to relieve con stipation has long been recognized, not only by the medical profes sion, but by the public generally; in fact, senna has been known and used in medicine for more than ' five centuries. The cheaper grades of senna, such as are usu- t ally sold at retail, have, however, a; tendency to gripe and cramp which makes tbeir use. unpopular with most people. In Dr. Caldwell Syrup Pepsin the finest Egyptian senna is com bined with pepsin and other valu able agents, essential oils and pure , cane sugar syrup to make an ex ceptionally valuable tonic-laxative for the relief of constipation and resulting disturbances of the stomach and bowels. The com plete formula is plainly printed in English, French, and Spanish on every package. Thousands who formerly bought an inferior grade of senna leaves now use Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin instead. It is sold in drug stores everywhere. 1 In spite of the fact that Dr. Cold, well's Syrup Pepsin is the largest jelling liquid laxative in the world, there being over 6 million bottles sold each year, many who need its benefits have not yet used it If you have not, send your name and address for a free trial .bottle to Dr. W.
