NEW SOLOMON IS WOMAN WITH SCROLLK Only K* Year* Old, but .May Conu1Judgment.When we picture justice It is as a wc t.jait with a sword We shall have to change that wh.-n little Miss Doro-thy ['rooks shall *ie elected to the hen ch. The ii(‘v\ idea will be a woman with a scroti: perhaps with a loaf and a poL of i.^i at anv tale. a woman with a cup of kindness. “You see. says iinlt* Miss Frocks, *'f should not he it judge to condemn, I should be a judge 1 o teach the criminal. An entire reform*”This Dorothy Is *15 y*-ars old. But her strength Is in her youth* Becaust sIh- means to run for office she wants the ballot, and we are almost \ v-stiaded that we should let her have it, Miss Frooks confesses frankly tl at if was not always thus with her. Once in l^r ignorance and thoughtlessness site laughed at the women who wanted to vote. Two years ago she saw the light- She is a strong suffragist now. and if her laughter ever turns to tears over those performances of suffragettes which should make goddesses weep she does not say so.Just now her cause arid her aspirations appear as very serious matters to Miss Dorothy. We trust that years to come will destroy neither her womanly charity nor her view of a busy life as something worth while. These possessions are really rather strong rivals to the ballot in world utility and importance.—“New York World.
