WHY NOT?

Convention says it's all right to wear clothes like this to be comfortable on the beach; conventionsays it's all wrong to wear clothes like this to be comfortable in the parlor. Convention says it's allright to wear clothes like this (or no clothes, like this) on the beach, if you don't intend to go In thewater. You can't dress like this anywhere else when you don't intend to go in the water. Now isn'tconvention the funny old lady?

HOW WOMAN LOSTA MILLIONBECA USE

SHE COULDN'T VOTEEditor Press: When I read the

letter the other day from the wo-man who has a grievance becauseshe has Jloo,ooo worth of proper-ty and can't vote, I made up mymind to write about my griev-ance, which I believe will winmore votes for suffrage than hers,because I am a victim of the mostunjust law that can affect woman,the property law of Pennsylvania,which gives a man the right towill away all of the property, al-lowing the wife only a life interest,or the income of one-third, evenwhere she earned most of it her-self.

Is Old, Poor and Blind.I am now a poor, blind, broken

old woman, depending on the char-ity of my widowed daughter, whosews to support us both, and she,too, is delicate from the effects ofthat terrible law. I will have mydaughter write my story and youcan judge for yourself.

My husband and 1 started withnothing. I made vinegar, whichhe peddled around in a wheelbar-row. Besides making the vinegarI kept boarders, did all the work,washing, cooking, scrubbing, andmade all my husband's clothes, myown and the children's.

In two years we had enoughmoney to start a little grocery. Welived back of it, and I did all thework, still keeping boarders, andwaited on the store all the time,besides attending to all tlie bills,as 1 had a good head for business.My husband didn't have much of ahead for business.

In a few years the business grewbo much, and I had so many chil-dren that we hired a girl to help.But 1 worked always in the store,because people seemed to want meto wait on them. We finally be-came rich and when my husbanddied the estate whs estimated at amillion dollars, for we had the big-gest grocery business in the cityof Pittsburg, aud a lot of propertybesides.

Grew Very Rich.We had a fine home out in the

Baal End, but I went down to thestore every day in my carriage, for1 loved the store, and was proud ofthe business we bad made. Andeverybody said it was Mrs.who had built it up and was thebusiness one of the firm.

into the hands of a trust company,and I was to get my one-third in-come.

1 tried to break the will, becauseI wanted to keep the store, ut Ilost the case. My store and albl therest of the property was sold, andduring the panic of 1593 the trustcompany failed and we lost every-thing.

Had 'uck continued to pursue us.!We moved into a little house anddrunk Pittsburg's vile water, and

;three of my daughters died of ty-: phoid fever. My son-in-law had itvery severely, being left in such aweakened condition that he gotconsumption. He died eight yearsago.

My widowed daughter and Ihave been sewing, trying to sup-

Iport ourselves, but I am gettingblind now, and my troubles havebroken me.

Our condition was caused bythat outrageous law of Pennsylva-nia which gives the husband abso-lute control of everything. Mylawyer told me most of the stateshave the same kind of a law.

Please publish this, for most peo-ple do not know about, these laws.

"One must think that heat is agood thing, a wonderful uling, thatit will take the Impurities out ofthe corporeal, that It was purpose-ly sent to us, and cannot hint, thatthere is something inside that willsend out waves of coolness suffi-cient to neutralize the heat waves."

Itut Dr. Sears says one shouldavoid meat and stimulants, andwear loose, thin clothing.

Also, she says: "Hon't quarrelwith people who see Hod different-ly from you." Keep cool!

TAKE A PUFF, PUFF, PUFF,BUT INSECL UDED NOOK

Ho Spokane women smoke ciga-rettes?

They do. Not to the extent thatthe Washington women smoke, per-haps, but?but ?

Well, they do say that a cozy lit-tle "all girls" smoker at Natato-rium park was rudely interruptedone afternoon last week and it isquite a common tiling to see a thinthread of smoke curling up abovefeathered hats in several cafeslate in the evening. The womenare well dressed and apparentlycome from the upper walks oflife. too. So says the little Sher-lock Holmes who has spotted theseiniquities.

Of course, the Spokane womenhaven't reached the point wherethey boldly flaunt their jeweledcigarette cases as they do inWashington.

?In this city where society Istinged with the foreign habits ofthe diplomatic set and where ciga-rette smoking is so common amongsociety women that it is no longerof much comment, there is astrong feeling that the anti-cigar-ette crusaders have been unfair indirecting their criticism at one ortwo individual women smokers.

The practice. It has been pointedout, is not confined to any especialfew, but is quite general amongfashionable women. As a regularfeature of practically every ultra-fashionable dinner party here, cig-arettes are usually provided forthe women. The old-fashioned ideaof the women leaving the men atthe table to smoke their cigaretteshas almost entirely disappeared,and now the men have their ciglarettes and liquor In one room andthe women have theirs in another.This is the way they do it at our

national capital, according to thepress dispatches:
