 Some little while back the pages of Punch were enlivered by an astronomical joke. A girl is asked if she can identify the planet Jupiter in the evening sky. She answers she can, for 1t Is exactly two wards and a half to the right of the Great Bear and she further explains that she has measured 1t carefully with hsr umbrella. At the time when all Eng land was waiting with deepest interest the great shower of meteors foretold for the middle of November two years ago, a lady went into a small grocer's shop near Dublin, and while waiting for her parcel to be made up remarked she hop>d the night would prove fine enough to enjoy the expected display.

pianos in city flats, it being righteously
argued by Mrs. Corsonne that unceaS-
ing musical flats in a fiat where peo-
pie must dwell is an imposition not to
be borne. In the constitution of the
anticity fiat piano club Mrs. Corsonne
wisely inserted the clause that the
presidential term should be four years
and that the president should be re-
elected to succeed herself. There was
accordingly no getting around the log
zeal conclusion that the clubs founder,
Mrs. Calipa Poster (Mrs. John Todd
Corsonne should be at it's head eight
years.
1t is not recorded that this club sup
pressed many pianos during these eight
years, but the organization had the
loveliest receptions, where the sweet
est and most magnetic tenors sang and
the ladies dressed to kill. 1t is also I'M
doubtedly true that in the course of the
eight years many pianos at least be-
came cracked, and that was good so
far as it went.
At the end of the eight happy years.
however, the discord of the fiat pianos
had somehow crept into the hearts of
the ladies who tried TO suppress them,
and Mrs. COrSonne was not elected for
the third term. Again she withdrew
from the antipianos with the increased
dignity that added experience had Civ
en- her and founded the Society For the
Suppression of Sneezing In Church, she,
as before, being president. That, how
ever, died a natural death while the
grip season was on, and Mrs. Corsonne
was again a woman without presi-
dency.
This vacuum continued only three
days, owing to energetic action on the
part of Mrs. Corsonne. She immedi-
ately from the resources of her rich ex-
perience evolved the league for the
electrocution of those enemies of the
human race who ask if it is hot enough
or cold enough for you. She became, in
turn, president of this organization,
with its most noble and merciful object,
and as such still waves.

Tt will only take me half an hour.
Would you mind staying here if I get
one of my friends to keep you compa-
ny? Bessie said she wouldn't and Bob
went and explained the case to one of
his friends who was taking dinner by
himself. The friend agreed to act as
substitute.
THE dinner went on merrily; too
merrily. Bobs friend began to make
violent love to Bob's fiancee. He told
her how he had been aching to get
chance to see her alone and hnally ask
ed her if she wouldn't allow him to
write to her and if she wouldn't ar
range for a meeting The girl was
highly indignant, but she concealed her
feelings beautifully. Bob at this mo-
ment returned, and a little later he and
his fiancee left the club together once
outside, she told him all. : He was so fu-
rious that he was on the point of going
right back to the club and making
row. Bessie, however, pre-
vailed on him to do otherwise. Leave
it all to me- she said and the doctor
agreed to do so.

5 sa'!'sa5 ! MOTHERS.

came state and local mothers socie-
ties established on the same plan.
There are now ten state organizations,
and the number is increasing rapidly.
What is more the example of these fine,
strong American mothers is being fol-
lowed in other lands. In the countries
of Europe, in China and Japan, in be-
nighted India, in Australia Hawaii and
even among the Latin-American moth
ers of Brazil, Chile and Peru, are wo-
men who are in correspondence with
the parent society of the United States.
American women have now held so
many national gatherings that they
have learned as thoroughly as the or
ganizers of a great political convention
how to plan and manage such an affair,
for the delegates and guests to the
mothers congress We're secured in ad-
vance reduced railway and hotel and
boarding house rates. At the meeting
place of the congress, which is the First
Baptist church. a bureau of information
was established, where list of hotels
and boarding houses, with the price to
be paid at each, might be seen. The
ladies also ordered in a temporary post
office and telegraph office, with messen
ser boys. The corresponding secretary
is Mrs r. Gotten, the Cairo, Washing
ton. What is really one of the best pro-
visions for both the convenience and
the looks of all the women attending
the convention is contained in the fol-
lowing paragraph from the circular of
information:
Delegates and visitors will be re-
quested to remove their hats and bon
nets during the sessions"
Splendid. 1t is the beginning of wo-
mans emancipation from the hat and
bonnet habit at club and other meet
ings Now there is hope for the sex in
other directions.
The congress deals with many topics,
from kindergartening, practically illus
trated, to the cultivation of a mothers
own intellectual powers, and, as al
ways, some of the best speeches at this
mothers meeting may be heard from
spinsters and women who are childless.
Real children sometimes affect mothers
far less beneficially than ideal ones.
Among the lower, more ignorant ranks
of society the worst fault of mothers is
that they can see nobody's children but
their own. Among these people the mar
row Drained, animal-like mother will
toll, fight beg, steal even, for her own
young, but she oftentimeS takes the at
titude of actual enmity toward the
young of all others.
This national congress must broaden
and make generous toward all children
those who take part in it, and if among
them the good ladleS can devise some
way to keep boys from wantonly de-
property in the community
and from torturing cats and dogs; if,
further, they can frame a plan to pre-
vent small girls from being overdress-
ed self conscious, self righteous, de-
ceitful little creatures, ostracizing and
being cruel as the grave to the female
child that cannot dress as well as they
do, then will this meeting of. mothers
achieve a world victory.

The Craae For Brown.


This craze for brown is to be seen in
many of the small accessories of dress.
Boas of brown chiffon, for instance, are
considered very smart. particularly
when combined with knots of golden
brown velvet Brown gloves, brown
pocketbooks and brown taffeta petit
coats. too, are numerous. From Paris
comes the edict that with a brown cos
tune brown shoes are a necessity, and
Louis Quinze shoes of brown suede
promise to be among the summer nov
elites for piazza wear.
OF course there are other colors for
those who cant wear brown-blacH.
for instance trimmed with strappings
of pale blue and green. and that new
shade Of reseda green. Nearly all the
coats are continued a little below the.
waist line, and the blouse is considered
a smarter fashion than the Elton. As
for the sleeves, they all have fullness
below the elbow.
Before 1 go on to another subject l
want to give a hint to the girl whose
last summer suit needs fresheninS up.
Introduce if possible a bit of the Per
sian which is just now so fashionable
either silk velvet or embroidery will do

PICTURE TooUE OF LACE AND PLUMEs.
THE PERPETUAL PRESIDENT.

I"\ HERE are honorary presidents
of ladies' clubs. 1t is the Gus
tom when club is tired of one
woman as president and does
n not wish to hurt her feelings
by directly voting her out of
office to unanimously resolve that she
be henceforth honorary president. Thus
they let her down easy and at the same
time get new, real president. This
system is to be generally commended
to mems clubs as a satisfactory method
of disposing of back number old per-
sens, and let us remember to her glory
that it was woman who devised the
graceful scheme, not man.
Besides the honorary president and
active president there is also another
type that has evolved in the course of
the development of womens clubs
This is the perpetual president.
Mrs. Ca1ipa Poster (Mrs. John Todd
Corsonne has evolved a brilliant scheme
whereby a lady may be always presi-
dent. She herself has been president
twenty years, and as her health is ro-
bust and she practices daily with dumb
bells and stump puller and she is now
only fifty-five any insurance company
would take risks on her for twenty
years more. So all signs point to the
happy conclusion that Mrs. Calipa Po-
sier Mrs. John Todd) Corsonne may be
a president twenty years more.
Her system is dead easy when one
understands it. Mrs. Calipa Poster
(Mrs. John Todd Corsonne occupied for
aour years the presidential chair of the
Ladies' League For the Suppression of
Dogs and Cats In City F'1ats-L. L. F.
S. D. G. c. F. Then the league chose an
other head because it believed dogs and
cats in flats could best be suppressed
by rotation in office. Mrs. Corsonne
was wounded in her official self respect
SO she resigned from the double LIS
and Immediately organized another
club, she of course being president
This club in it's aim and scope promised
yet more useful achievement than the
double L. organization since it was a
siSterly union for the suppression of
