WOMEN FRANCHISE DAY
Woman's Christian Temperance Union
Institutes New lay of Observance
Which Is Strictly Californian.

Which Is Strictly Californian.
The State Executive Board of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union
held its twenty fourth quarterly meeting
yesterday.
Much of the time was expended undoing
the work of the last meeting, during
which were made extensive preparations
for the National convention, which at
that time it was believed would be held in
this City.
The contingent of this coast regrets ex-
ceedingly that change of plan has been
made in the matter of convention city.
The members feel without the impetus
which they expected the convention would
give the movement on this coast-that the
work for the eleventh amendment cam
paign will be far more arduous.
Preparations were made for the proper
observance of a day to occur henceforth,
on April q, and TO be known as ''Fran.
chlse Day." Public meetings will be held
all over the State. The programmes are
to consist of suitable exercises, speeches
and debates on the subject of womans
suffrage.
The idea originated with Miss Sarah NJ.
Severance and is purely Californian. April
y was chosen to honor the State Presi-
dent. Mrs. Peat. who was born on that
day.
Arrangements also were made for the
annual school OF methods, to be held at
Pacific Grove next June
1t was stated during the meeting that
an ensign tea and scissors party would be
given by the Westminster Church Union
at 339 Oak street on Friday, April 10.

our greatest annoyances is about corks.
| have been in the drug business for nearly
fifteen years and l feel sure that nv expe-
rience is no different from that of eyery
other druggist. The trouble complain of
is that of almost ninety-nine out of every 100
persons when presenting bottle for medi-
cine will invariably retain the cork until
you have filled the bottle, put a cork in
and tied it UP, when they will say: Il
have the cork This may seem trifle to
kick about, but corks cost money, and
then there is trouble occasionally to find
one to fit bottle properly. The amount
OF money we lay out annually for corks
might be cut down fully so per cent if our
customers would only think. ."-Philadel-
