The Woman,s CIub.

At the Woman's club. Mrs Morse
gave a most delightful paper on THE
Model Home
The principal part of the paper re-
lated to the kitchen, 'the most uni
versal of all workshops, yet usually the
most poorly equipped
After showing disadvantages and in
conveniences of the ordinary kitchen.
the waste and the expense. and after
calling attention to the much dreaded.
and constantly repeated dish washings,
as accomplished in the present day,
she described an ideal kitchen.
In this kitchen, for preparing the un-
cooked foods, long table, one side of
which is to be fitted with various ma
chimes, each one capable of being at
tached to a dynamo, the I.oWer of
which is to be obtained from an cleo
trio light wire, from gas, water or
steam. Here will be potato parer,
an egg beater, a cake beater, chopping
knives, a kneading machine, and all of
the various devices that busy house
wife could use in the preparation of al
most every meal.
The cooking is to be done in ovens,
so heated that any temperature may
be had, thermostat attachment
makes this possible. There is to be no
guess work in the future The scien-
tific cook will know exactly how many
minutes or hours the food is to be
cooked, and the exact temperature
The refrigerator. built in the wall,
will be supplied with cold from some
ammonial substance. Any temperature
can be had, from that just sufficient to
keep milk sweet and let the cream rise,
to that where ice cream can be frozen
All dish washing is to be done by
machinery, attach the little green wire
to the handle of the machine, and
there is nothing more to be done.
If housekeepers would only see the
need of such Improvements it would
only be a very short time before all
kitchens would be so equipped The
saving in food, fuel, servant hire, and
breakage, would very quickly repay
for the first outlay.
Miss Gilmer gave an account of the
electrical kitchen at the fair, and read
a most interesting article from Table
Talk on the same subject. All were
so thoroughly interested that a long
discussion followed, and many ques-
lions were asked and answered. Mrs.
Gilmer showed her interest in the sub
ject in a most substantial way. She
rendered to the club an electrical ap-
paratus, bought in Chicago, SO that at
some future day the club may open its

CONCERNING THE OPEN FIRE.
Logs Should CrackIe and Sparkle
These Autumn Evenings.

~
The woman who thanks fate and her
landlord for a furnace or steam-heating
apparatus, and proceeds to put a toy
ship, an embroidered screen or some
other incongruity into her open fire
place, is making a sad mistake From
an aesthetic point of view nothing is
so beautiful as a glowing, flaming mass
of logs. Nothing is so adapted to keep
ing men and boys at home at night
as an open fire. Nothing is such an
incentive to pleasant conversation. The
embroidered screen is entirely a mis-
take, and the toy ship is an insult.
Open fires are something of an ex-
pense and something of trouble. But
if they are lit only during the evening
1t does not require a millionaire's in
come to keep them going, and, with a
little care, it will not be necessary to
hire extra help to clear out the fire
place. When the ashes are swept out
each morning the sticks for the next
evenings fire should be laid. The big
wood box should be kept filed by the
children, who will look upon building
the fire as an amusement designed for
their especial benefit, if the right argu-
ments are used.
Half a load of hickory wood will
support evening fires for long time
and cost only $3.50. 1t crackles and
sparkles merrily. and if the far-sighted
housewife will persuade her boys to
bring her home from the woods
branches of pine and fir and a pile of
cones, she can, by the use of these,
make the open fire as fra grant as it is
beautiful.--N. Y. World.

The Proposed Income Tax.

The New York Tribune in a recent
editorial against the income tax says:
1.-The first objection to this tax is
that it never has been, and never can
be, honestly or fairly enforced. The
dishonest escape while the more honest
pay 1t is a tax which offers a pre-
MUM on false swearing, concealment
of property and income, and all kinds
of devices for cheating the government.
Experience years ago taught that the
devices were demoralizing to public
and commercial integrity Bribery of
local officials was one of the evil con-
sequences. An education in false
swearing and MISUNDERSTANDING was
another. The tax was used, moreover,
in every part of the country by some
individuals to satisfy their grudges
against rivals in business, or to cause
betrayal of business methods and re-
suits
Why is it that these objections do
not secure the repeal of the tax in Eng
land2 Incomes have been taxed in that
country for more than q generation,
and the system works so satisfactorily
that no Political party attempts to dis
turb it. If an Englishman resorts to
bribery or false swearing to escape his
tax he goes to prison, and there is no
reason why we should not be equally
rigorous in this country.
An income tax is an equitable tax.
1t is lie, led on wealth and not on indus
try. The percentage OF the tax car,
easily be changed every year to meet
the needs of the treasury. and the
change would not, like tariff duties
affect the prices of raw material OF
manufactured products.
The democratic. idea. favored by
Thomas Jefferson and others down to
the present time, is to have a gradu-
aied income tax on large incomes. This
Increases the percentage of the tax as
the incomes grow larger

year would, under a 2 per cent tax

zens are congratulating themselves on
the splendid improvement, which has
transformed their portion of the city.
The work done by the Pacific Paving

pecially satisfactory. 1t was begun in
April last, the company at that time
not anticipating the many difficulties
that would be encountered. After grad

trouble commenced. Water and gas
pipes had to be laid, sewer man holes
built, fire hydrants placed, gas sewer
and water connections made, electric
light and other poles placed in position.
A small forest of trees had to be cut
down. FlHmes on all sections had to be
taken out, and at the Coz tinental cor
neT the remnant of an old water tank
thirty feet long by sixteen wide and
eight deep was encountered. This was
formerly used by the volunteer fire

were built conduits with stone sides.

Bread Making Made Easy.

1t is one of the fine arts of life TO do
things in some easy and practical
fashion. Whoever invents or devises
way to save labor. TO do two things

conferred a lasting benefit on man.
kind. Particularly is this the case in
household affairs The difficulty of
getting competent help and the burden
of domestic care seems to increase
with every year and easy ways to do
things are of unSpeakable value. es-
pecially to delicate women who have
everything to look after and in en-
ergencies must take up the entire labor
of the esta blishment.
A new idea in breadmaking is we'll
worth the attention of every woman
whether she be delicate or care-burd-
ened or not A semi-invalid makes
bread without WEAKNESS by a simple
process. Instead of the usual knead-
ing and mixing she uses a chopping-
knife. Sprinkling on a little flour she
chops the sponge for five or ten min
utes two or three times during the ris-
ing process. No kneading is required
except just enough to put it into shape
when it is ready for the pans. She
never uses a bread board, but spreads
a large cloth-folded over to several
thickneSSes-on the table covers it
thick with flour. and shapes the bread
out on that, taking care that no dough
sticks to the cloth. With this chop
ping process it is possible to handle
the dough in an extremely soft state

fact that biscuits, to be good, must be
