because I think it is not such a great
departure from woman's ordinary

the selection of an occupation think

Elizabeth Cady Stanton. In honor of
the occasion suffrage celebration
will be held by the women of forty
States in this union. They will meet
at the capitals of their respective

go home to ride bicycles or cook steaks
just as their fancy dictates.

Topeka, Kan, has young woman,
aged seventeen, Adele Pollock by
name, who for amusement learned to
turn horseshoe in her fathers black
smith shop. At recent entertain
ment for the benefit of church Miss
Adele appeared in match against
two of the most expert blacksmiths in
the city. Three portable forges were
placed upon the stage, Each of the
contestants was allowed helper to
blow the bellows. She appeared in a
very workmanlike garb-a corduroy
skirt and leather apron. Her COM
petitors smiled indulgently at her
when time was called but became
anxious, then alarmed and finally dis
comfited when she turned and cast
perfect horseshoe before the judges in
less than four minutes. The curtain
dropped on the pretty picture of the
flaming forge, and few minutes later
Miss Pollock appeared among her
friends daintily clad in white, and
charmed all by her graceful manner.

IN THE COOKS DOMAIN.
Variety is the spice of life, and the
housewife ought to remember it. 1t
stands to reason that no man wants to
sit down to fried steak and fried po-
tatoes for three hundred and sixty
five mornings in the year, with half
hundred suppers of the same dishes,
even if they are gotten up in appeti-
zing style, which they are not. if he
gets them that often, for good cook
would have sense enough to vary her
menu. A man grows to hate eating
at home when he knows to grain of |
pepper what he will have for a given |
meal.

Tomato pie is dish dear to the
heart of the thrifty housewife, as it
enables her to use up remnants of
meat. 1t is, morever, a savory dish
for luncheon or supper. Chop the
meat into cubes, butter pie-dish and
place the meat at the bottom, cover
this with layer of sliced tomatoes

With sunburn ON her dainty cheek.
And freckles ON her nose,
Our summer girl is coming home
10 greet her winter beaux,
She's had round of gayety,
A mad and giddy whirl,
But now she'll soon be here again
Our dainty summer girl.
The mountains drop heavy sigh,
The sea briny tear;
They know it is sad farewell
For one long, weary year. att
An Ill wind, though, it is, they say,
Which good to no one blows
DUR summer girl is coming home IT
To greet her winter beaux
