JXR. ANNA SHAW SENDS A LETTER TO SUFFRAGISTS BY ANNA HOWARD SHAW. To live Editor of the Suffrage Edition, Detroit Tunes: 1 wish I could write, but I cannot. 1 wn -talk but an,attempt to write take* all the life out of anything I may tuwe to eay. You are a splendid, eur flbuelaetic lot of people In Detroit rind ought to succeed In ftirriug up things. Quod success to you. At no time In the history of the woxuan suffrage movement lias there been such universal interest In Its varied activities as at the present. It la, impossible to ride on a train, sit at a table In a restaurant, attend a banquet or a social function of nny sort, or to be present at lectures or even religious gatherings, without listening to a discussion on this uni versal problem. For It has become a world wide question and its solution before It Is Anally accepted, most be the enfranchisement of women as well as of men in every civilized govern ment. The man or woman who claims that the agitation of votes for women is confined to a few or to any one por tion of the world is blind to the «ignß of the times. At the international suffrage alliance, assembled in Stockholm last year, there were rep resentatives from 26 nations. In many of which suffrage has become a fact and it is no longer confined to academic discussion. From Fiuland came four members of iiarllament, representatives of the government; and the government of htorway, Aus tralia and New Zealand, where women have full suffrage, were officially resented. Os the 26 countries, whoso' delegates were present at this con vention, six have full suffrage, six ad ditional countries municipal suffrage, and of the remaining fourteen, either In the whole country or In portions of it, eight have some limited form of suffrage, lu fact no year passes without feeling the political power of women lu inan* governments of the world. In our own country there are at prsssiK more constitutional cam paigns pending to grant full suffrage to women than ever before, and the interest, not only in these campaigns but in a large number of the remain ing states, is constantly increasing. As we contemplate the activities of women all over the world to secure J For Sweaty Hands and Excess Under Arms i Excess perspiration at any purt of the body Is‘an unnatural condition.

The pain Is taken away In an Instant; the soreness d'sappears from the muscles; the stiffness lenves the joints unless they have been affected eo long that bony growths have made motion Impossible; Inflammation sub side!; and In many Instances two or thrae treatments have been enough to cure a stubborn case. If you have political freedom, their executive ability, their constant devotion, their fidelity of purpose and their numerous sacrifices we cannot but deplore the necessity for such waste of energy for the mere purpose of securing the tool by which the growing need of the world Is to be alleviated. But tho end Is In sight, and the time of the complete enfranchisement of women Is negr at hand. Everything now de pends upon the loyalty and stead fastness of women In seeking the bal lot. Men, and good men even, will constantly plead with us to withhold our demands until some special leg islation, for which they seek, Is se cured, but the time haa come for suf fragists to refuse to be put off any longer and to insist that whatever measure of Importance Is deeired, no matter how seemingly helpful. It le vastly more Important that the whole people shall be free to oxpreea their will In regarj to R than that the measure should be Immediately pass ed. So that wiille we* hold our minds open toward all movements for hu man betterment, let our watchword be, "This one thing I do.” When we have the power to enforce our will and our opinions are counted at the ballot box, where alone they are effec tive, then will be the time to give expression to them. 1812, we are con fident will be the banner year In vic tories for stiff rage. Cities of Refuge. I By CAPT. MARGARET DUT FY. The Salvation Army tomes are lo the fallen girl, what the cities of refuge were to the Israelites,' a sanc tuary from the destroyer; with this difference, those of ancient day were for the innocent, those ope nalike for sinner and sinned against. The little girl of 13 years belonged In the latter class, not only In our opinion, but this also was the opinion or the judge who sentenced the three men implicated, to a term In prison. ”1 want a round pancake,” said a five-year-old at the supper table re cently. Blessings be upon our friends who make It possible for us to sup ply the round pancakes and the abun dance of syrup that brings from the little ones the slßh of bllssrul contort. "Give and It shall be given unto you.” As we sat gazing Into the blue eyes of the baby abandoned, a voice rheur.tatism ln any form, stop ln at 92 Breadway and be shown, tree, that '‘Try-New-Life” will do all that Is claimed for it—and more.

Address Manager Hamilton-Beach Sales Cos., 92 Broadway, Detroit. WSL / MRS. JOHN TRIX. Mr MRB. CHAS. STAFF. THE REV. JAMES T. BLACK, of Bethany Presbyterian church, Detroit, is a friend and advocate of equal suf frage. and from his pulpit has spoken In favor of the cause. Mr. Black says: “I fa\or it from the vantage point of Justice. The fact of woman’s ac countability and responsibility to the law presupposes her right to partici pate In the making and administering of the law. ‘Male and female created He them,' means equal responsibility under the moral law, and individual accountability under the Vxdal code. Since the laws of God aud of man recognize woman as individually amenable, then in Justice she should participate In framing the Btalulea and In choosing those who are to ad minister them.” TRACY McGREGOR—-"While 1 have been too busy with other mat ters to be active in the cause, 1 am very much In sympathy with the movement and shall certainly vote JUNE 1912, DR.

Whj don’t you use Fela-Naptha I Boiling water isn’t necessary; and you’ll be through your wash plenty of time to hare dinner in the dining-room- Or if you prefer the katchen, there will be no stoam or bad amelia.'’ Talk about energy! A haH cake of Fels-Naptha soap can display more energy in getting rid of dirt in half an hour than an aole-bodsed woman can in half a day. But these’s this difference: Much of the woman’s energy is wasted. When she rubs clothes hard on a washboard she wears out the clothes in trying to rub out the dirt. Fels-Naptha concentrates its energy on the dirt —dissolves it into tiny particles that are easily rinsed away —without harming the most delicate fabric. And it does this in cool or lukewarm water, without hot water or boiling, sum* mer or winter. Do you prefer to supply the dirt removing energy yourself or to use that stored up in a cake of Fels-Naptha? If you choose the easier and better way, follow directions on the red and green wrapper.
