A fetish is made throughout the report of constituted authority. Constituted authority can no longer ^ -serve for blind worship. It is entitled to respect and to receive respect, in F no far, and only so far, as it is worthy of the responsiblity and trust of its position. The whitewash brush can not serve this purpose.

That; this will be done is beyond question, should two more states ratify the' amendment before the May convention. Thirty-four states have ratified ompnHment. Mrs. Julian B. Salley of Aiken, president of the South Carolina Equal Suffrage league, yesterday wrote S. M. Wolfe, attorney general, for an opinion as to the prerequisites for voting. Mr. Wolfe has not yet had time to formulate his opinion, but in a telephone conversation last night Mr. Evans said the amendment of the rules to enable the women to vote was a very simple matter.

"i Nature's Remedy (NR Tablets )t Are Helping Thousands Who Tried Expensive Things Without Result. It's Guaranteed. ? There are three x*ital processes of human existence,?the digestion of food, the extraction of nourishment from it and the elimination of waste.
