Make Better Men and Women, Mrs. IT. Seton Asserts.
MUST LEARN NATURAL UWS
"H You Catch Humanity Young Enough Chance ef Letting In the Light Is GrMter," Declarea Wife of Natura Writer—Lauds New Move¬ ment
New York.—"One reason why 1 am ¦o much interested lu tbe outdoor movemeut that is sweeping over the country," said Mrs. Grace Gallatin Se¬ ton recently, "is because I believe that a nation can rise no higher tban the level of its women and tbat it is best to begin early to make our women all that they should be to become the fit¬ ting wives and mothers of the race."
Mrs. Seton. wife of Ernest Thompsou Seton and a member of the Council of the Woodcraft I.«ague, weut on:
"It is also Important to begin teach¬ ing the men while they are In the re¬ ceptive perlo<l of Iwyhood tbe proper

attitude toward women. If boys and girls are brought up side by side with certain fuudnmental Ideas of equality there wlll be no time when tbe mau, liaving attained his majority, wlll have to reconstruct bis ideas concerning the equal partnership of men and women In the various relationships of life, so ciai, marital and civic.
"Nowadays a boy In mauy instances la'permitted to feel when he comes into young manhood that his mother's opinions no longer have the same value they did when he wus a growing boy. He thinks she doesn't understand the important things of life. Later, when bis reason begins to operate, he has to flght the inheritance of li secret sense of man's superiority or remain hope¬ lessly flxed in fcis view of humanity as a whole.
"One of the important thiugs In the education of a boy Is flrst of all to let blm know tbe physical asi)ect of tbe country he lives In, the out of doors world about him and the natural laws that govern everythmg in It
"And bow important it is that the girls know outdoor life too! Therefore, tbat tbe trainmg sball be fundamental¬ ly alike up to the point where it natu¬ rally separates, it is important tbat girls as well as boys shall bave much of outdoor life in their younger years.
"A great deal of the value of out¬ door life and work comes from tbe re covery of past knowledge of how to do things. It is a workmg out of tbe prob¬ lem of development—a getting back tu tbe source of creation In acqtiirlnc; knowledge nnd efflclency in doin^ things.
"I see tbis outdoor movement as a vast picture. At tbe bottom is dark ness, and ascending are layers of in- creasmg light until the sun rays out Its full glory above. Stcuggling, mov¬ ing and growing all through these lay¬ ers is humanity—souls in all stages of development. If you catch humanity young enough the chance of letting in the light is greater. ^
"If we are to develop In America dis tlnctive schools of art. mtisic and handicraft we must lay tbe founda¬ tions on those thmgs wblch were dis¬ tinctly American—woodcraft, outdoor life In general, tbe beautiful customs of tbe North American Indians and their art and picture writing. These we mnst first understand.
"Onr woodcraft work is founded 01^ the fundamental natural laws which were known to the North American Indians; hence many of tbeir designs and symbols bave been used in seek¬ ing to get back to the big coiMtruc tlve principles that govern human life. For instance^ much a^mboUsm is nsed. These symbols have their outer mean¬ ing for the passerby and their deeper splritnal Blgniflcanoe for those who ¦eek it.
"For our people to get the full Iwne- flt of the occasional respites from the workaday world that camping trips gtve they must know the wild by heart, and this can l^t foe done by studying It when young: hence the Importance ot woodcraft work for boys and girta"

Rock Uland, 111.—The body of Fred Lawson, eleven years old, swelled to twice its normal size as tbe result of an accident, and for a time his life was endangered.
While coasting the boy was struck in the neck by a piece of wagon wheel rim protruding from the ground. The bronchial tube was punctured, and in ezhalln? his breath mnch of tbe air passed through this puncture and un¬ der the skin, causing tbe body to in¬ flate.
Young I.AW8on was at the point of suffocation when physicians arrived. Their flrst act was to puncture the skin of tbe neck and allow the nir to escape. They say the boy wlll live.

WOMAN KILLS EAGLE.
Pulaski County Resident Wins Record by Not Using Gun.
Rolla, Mo.—Mrs. J. II. Arthur, who lives near Laquey, Pulaski county, probably enjoys the distinction of be ing tbe only woman in Missouri to kill an eagle witbout tbe aid of a gun.
Recently she beard a noise in the chicken yard and saw a large eagle swoop dowu on the flock. A watch¬ dog rushed upon the eu^le and knocked It to the ground. Mrs. Arthur grabbed a long piece of wagon tire and struck It witb all her might, breaking Its neck and right wing. The eagle measured six feet four taches from tip to tip.

MRS. ASQOiTH AND LADY HAIG ACTIVE
Husbands' Elevation to High Poslflons Accredited to Then.
HAVE GREAT INFLUENCE
Qreat Britain Prime Minister'a Wife ef Material Assistance to Him, and She la Probably Most Influential Wo¬ man In English Politico—Lady Haig Also Powerful.
London.—Two women, Mrs. Asquitb and Lady Haig, are playtag an active part in Great Britain's politics. To their work is accredited the elevation of their husbands to high positions.
The action brought by Mra. Asqulth. the wife of the prime minister, against the London Globe to restrain its editor from publlshtag any more letters from its readers Indirectly roferrliii;; to her aa a friend of German prisonci-s of war litleriied lu Dounlu^tou Hall had much uiore l>ehlud It than the extreme ly courageous aftiou of nn inde|.'<?iMU>in aud fearless wointiu.
The prime inlnlster'.s wile Is proli,iLil.\ the most iiiilueutial tM'iuau In i;ii;;llsli politics In mudeni days. The lute Duchess of Devonshire, the "liiitilile Duchess," as she wa.s called Lieiause she captured two ducal titles In succes¬ sion, that of the seventh holder of th«; Manchester title aud the eighth of Devonshire, could perhaps have had greater political power if she could have persuaded the indolent Duke of Devonshire to accept the offlce of prime minister. Mrs. Asqulth, on tbe other hand, is couimuuly believed to have materially assisted her husband to thLs high offlce. Hla enemies have always been legion and his frieuds not numer¬ ous, hLs character betag that of tbe serious Scotsuiuii who forms emotional ties with difflculty.
Mrs. Asqulth, brilliant, witty, tem- perameutul and Intellectual and in¬ variably cntertalnlug, has supplied thLs deflclency and by her tact and charm she has kei>l uuiiupulrcd many politi¬ cal friendships useful to her husband.
The withdrawal of the British forces from the GalUpoll peninsula Is credited to Mrs. Asijulth's advlfe, coupled with the recommiMidatlon of Major General C. C. Monro, who .sucf-eeded General Sir Ian Humlltou as commander at the Dardanelles, which was made publlc in the house of lords by Lord Rlbblesdale. Mrs. Asqulth's brother-in-law.
Lady Ualg, the wife of Geueral Sir Douglas Haig, who bas taken over the command of the British troops in France as the successor of Field Mar¬ shal Viscount French, is credited with having exerted great Influence toward her husband's advancement In tbe army. Sbe was the Hon. Maud Vivian, one of the "Vivian twina," who were famous as maids of honor to Queen Victoria and Queen Alexandra. Before his marriage to Miss Vivian ten years ago Haig was a favorite with General French, huviut; served under French at Aldershot uud then accompanyluK him to South .\frlca durhig the Boer war. Whatever French has beeu able to do for Half? bus beeu done, but his present high command is the result more of the influence at court of Lady Haig, and Lord Kitchener has beeu persuaded by royalty's desires to ad¬ vance the man most favored by his old enemy, General French. , Sir Doug¬ las Haig was promoted to be a full general only a year ago, although bc had beld the post as chief of staff in India for some years, havl^ won it through the Influence of King Bdward and Queen Alexandra^
Sir Douglas and t^dy Hulg have-not taken an.v/ particular p«inB-to>«88ume any leadership In I>ondon society since their marriage and bave not kept up a London residence during visits home from India, spending their time at Al¬ dershot, where Haig earned the nick¬ name of "Von Haig" on account of bis Prussian thoroughness in military mat¬ ters and his stem way of handltag sub¬ ordinates. He and Lady Haig bave two children, daughters, named after the two queens whom Lady Haig served—Alexandra Henrietta Louise, bom In 1907, and Victoria Doris Ra¬ chel, born ta 1908.
CURES BICHLORIDE POISONING
Cincinnati Doctor Diacovers Antidote For Deadly Drug.
CtaclnnatL—Physicians at the Cln- etanatl General hospital bave discover¬ ed an antidote for bichloride of mer¬ cury, one of the most corrosive poisons known.
Recently Miss Birdie Talbott took foor of tbe deadly tablets. Sbe was taken to the City hospital wrlthtag ta agony. The physicians gave her copi¬ ous doses of a combination of drugs discovered by Professor Martin Fisher of the medical department of the Cln- ctanati university. The woman has left the hospital entirely cored.
