Facts Ahnnt Coffee.

The pleasures Of coffee are by no means
dissipated in the warm season, when 'hot
coffee" Is not needed as a means Of defying
the discomfort Of cold weather. Cold coffee
is a delicious beverage when well made.
Coffee ice made Of strong coffee frozen in a
freezer and served in cups with whipped
cream is a dainty dessert, or a convenient

When Women Should Marry.

Probably the best time for the average
civilized woman to marry would be any age
between "a and So It is not said that no
woman should marry earlier or later than
either OF these ages; but youth, and health,
and v1gor are ordinarily at their highest per-
lection between these two periods. Early
marriages are seldom desirable for girls. and
that for many reasons The brain Is imma-
ture, the reason is feeble and the character Is
uniformed. The consideration which would
prompt a girl to marry at II would in many
cases have little weight with her at "a At
II she Is child, at "a woman Where
girl has Intelligent parents the seven years
between II and "a are the period when mind
and body are most amepable to wise disci-
pine and best repay the thought and toll de-
voted to their development.
Before II few girls have learned to under
stand what life is, what discipline Is, what
duty is. They cannot value what is best
either in the fathers wisdom or in the
mothers tenderness When married at that
childish period they ara like young recruits
taken fresh from the farm and the workshop
and hurried OF to long campaign without
any period OF preliminary drlll or training,
or like schoolboy removed from school to 8
curacy without being sent to the university
or to theological hall Whocan help griev-
ing over child wife, especially If she have
children and husband who is an inexperi-
enced and possibly exacting boy mani The
ardor Of his love soon cools; the visionary
bliss of her poetical imagination vanishes like
the summer mist; there Is nothing left but
disappointment and wonder that what prom
ised TO be so beautiful and long day should
have clouded over almost before sunrise

Girls in tho Row Boat.

Now, word about rowing: 1t is an exer-
else that will develop the arms broaden the
shoulders aud strengthen the back. But, in
order to row web and gracefully, girl must
discard her corsets. An oarsrnan will tell you
the strength of the stroke Is more In the back
than the arms, and II you watch him as he
sends bis boat rapidly along you will notice
that his back bends till his head almost
touches his knees Such an action would be
painful and awkward to any one wearing cor
sets, and this b Why most girls while rowing
look stiR and ungraceful. Besides this, the
position on the low seat Of row boat, with
the legs almost at right angles with the body,
forces the corset up till the compression that
should be round the waist is over the ribs and
lungs, and n therefore hurtful and painful

Women "a Suiciflch.

A fact interesting to women is developed
in the comparison of old and recent statistics
of suicide In the old works on suicide the
causes OF self destruction among women
were given: First. o. disappointment in love;
next, religious excitementi and. lastly. dis
ease Late investigation shows marked de-
crease from the two first named causes. This
is encouraging, as it shows a corresponding
increase in woman's mental and moral
strength There was !. time when love and
the home ties Of husband and chfldrsn were q
wonan's only source OF comfort and diver
sion. If love failed aad husband and chill
dren proved unkind the woman had no re-
sources. There was a time when women
were expected to believe what men formu-
lated as to faith without question. Their
minds, like those OF children, were unpre-
pared to grapple with new ideas. All this Is
changed.
Girls are educated with their brothers,
Women are iasympathy with their husbands
profession or business, or they carve ont in
dependent lives for themselves. Women have
grown less personal, and they recognize other
claims than their ee'il Love may be lost,
but humanity, friendship. work, and books
are left Love may die, but the SUP VIII still

Women no longer pin their faith exc,us-
lively on Interpretations Of men. Women are
working out problems for themselves. They
no longer consider It q dn to read and dis
cuss, and think for themselves. Their minds
have grown strong enough 20 grasp new
idea without growing hysserical and becom-
ing insane or committing suicida Only q

Killed a Rather with Her Tin Pail.


Mrs. Frank Keen, of Chichesterville, had
rather thrilling experience with rattle
snake a day or two ago, which she will prob
ably remember during the remainder of her
life. She was picking raspberries In her gar
den when she suddenly heard peculiar rat
Ting noise. She continued her work for a
minute or two, when she again heard the
same noise nearer by, accompanied by an
ominous hiss, and, glancing into the bushes
close at hand, she saw big rattlesnake al
ready coiled and about to spring at her.
Mrs. Keen had large tin pail partly filed
with raspberries In her hand, and without
moments hesitation she let the snake have a
taste of the berries and the big pail at the
same time The pail must have fallen with
terrific whsck on the reptiles head, for
when Mrs. Keen went closer to examine into
the injuries done to her pail, as well as to
see how the snake liked its berry bath, she
found the head had been nearly severed from
the body. Mrs. Keen says she feels assured
the snake would not have attacked her if she
had kept q respectable distance from its quar-
tiers. The snake measured four feet In length
and had nine rattles Freeman.

Manifesto of French Women Against War.

We women belong to all lands;
We, who form half the contingent Of the
nations;
We whom the laws of rnen have excluded
from councils where once our mothers voices
caused peace TO triumph;
We, on whom the barbarity and license Of
war ruthlessly infict death and outrage;
We, whom it deprives of all that our very
being clings to-father, husband, son, home;
We, whose consciences have not learned to
distinguish between the single homicide,
justly branded and punished, and homicide
in mass, though perpetrated on the innocent,
which is rewarded with glory;
We have not forgotten the commandment,
"Thou shalt not KILL"
We, whom society deems capable and fitted
for its heaviest duties without the CORE
spending privileges;
We, whose mission on earth is Cancellation,
peace, self sacrifice;
We, whom longer silence would render
accomplices in this detestable squandering Of
human life, this waste Of treasure, this desc
lating of whole provsncesl
We protest with al our energies:
Against war, against this odious abuse Of
power,
Against the Intentional disregard of the
pacific means of international arbitration, so
prolific of good.
We protest:
In the name of humanity, whose sacred
laws are violated by war,
In the name Of our country, deprived Of
her SONS by war,
In the name Of the family, dismembered
and destroyed by war,
In the name of progress, driven back by
war,
In the name of morals, perverted by war,
We, wives, we, mothers, we, care takers Of
the family, request from all men, possessed
of hearts, brotherly help in this holy cru
SADIE
We address burning appeal to all legislat-
ors, to all teachers of youth;

efforts, let them teach OUT children,

Air Famine.

DR.. Felix Oswald, in a recent article In a
medical journal, shows that ffty-fve out OF
100 white children die before they complete
seven years Of life, but he asserts that hardly
five of that number are born with germs OF
an early death and that two-thirds Of the
the remainder perish from want of life air.
1t is too commonly assumed that child's
lungs are too weak to stand ordinary fresh
air, to judge by the precautions that are
taken to shut up every possible avenue
through which pure air can enter room in
which it is kept. There is perhaps no subject
pertaining to hygiene upon which parents
and nurses act SO ignorartly or so pertina-
ciously refuse to be instructed as in this vital
necessity of fresh air to every human being,
young or old, sick OF well. II is all the more
needful to the delicate child or the ailing
adult than 70 others, if that is conceivable
when it Is 50 certainly essential TO the health
OF ali. Tie abuse, however, is more notice.

Dr. Oswald remarks: "Boys in knee
breeches often manage to remedy the evil
by dint Of strategy, while their petHcoated
juniors have to stand the brunt Of paternal
infatuation. Every form Of disease is ag-
gravated by the influence Of impure all"
Human beings can live long time without
food, but without air they cannot live six
minutes Their vitality is proportionately di-
unfinished by the lack Of pure air and the sub
stitution of air that is vitiated and inadequate
to supply the sustenance required from it.
One cause of mischief in this direction is
the confusion In many minds of the relations
Of heat and cold 70 pure or impure air. Rooms
are shut up tightly to keep in the heat, and
some economical but obtuse people cannot
possibly see t.e use Of having a warm fire
with the window or door open 1t looks to
them like piece Of extravaganza, and ''if
you want the door open what do you want a
fire forl'' seems to them a question incapable
Of reasonable answer. Hence air famine is
