the Hoffman home to see what was the
matter. They found the head OF the
household with blood streaming down his
head. In fact there was blood every
where in the room. \ plate broken all

RS.BURDETTE'S CLUB CREED
AS a Bit Of Club Doctrine 1t
Made Such a Hit Many
Copies are demanded.

The club creed" of Mrs. Robert Bur
dette, first vice president of the General
Federation Of Women's clubs. created
such a favorable impression when given
before the West End Woman's club that,
in response to numerous requests for n
copy, she was obliged to have it printed
ON slips of paper for distribution. This
is it:
| believe in afternoon club life for wo-
men,
| believe in evening club lie for men
and women together, when it does not
rob the home of father or mother
believe that woman has no right to
undertake any work whatsoever outside
of the home, along the lines of philan-
throphy, church, temperance or club life,
that does not emanate from the home
and in its final and best results return to
the home. Home must always be the
centre, but not the limit, of n womans
life.
believe in equal rights in the family
for father and mother in intelligence, az
fiction and tilial respect These the cnb
should foster.
believe in nine tenths OF the club mem
bers doing the work and one tenth thc
criticising, instead of the reverse.
believe in individual responsibility
for every interest of the club, mutual
sympathy and appreciation of results.
believe no woman has a right to ac-
cept n place on any committee unless
she serve faithfully, promptly and intelli-
gently and is wiling to stand by the re-
suits of her individual action.
believe that women should have a
moral responsibility regarding financial
matters in the prompt payment of dues
and pledges, and comprehension that,
as no other phase of life can be carried
on without MONEY, neither can the en-
largcd club life
believe in the value of minute and |
the thievery OF time on the part of one
late member from those in waiting is
rcprehensible Railroad trains do not |
wait. Why should immortal souls?
believe, out of consideration for
Others, in removing the hat in all public
assemblies
believe in occupying the seat tartlest
from the aisle when there are Others to
come, and for the same reason occupv-
ing front seats frs,
believe that club members should re-
strain themseles from whispering or the
rustling of skirts or papers during club
sessions.
believe no woman should seek or use
official position for stlfa9grandizcment
or club affiliations for stepping stones |
only, but that she should utilize her OPP |
portunitics for the altruisms of life.
| believe the character and good name
of each individual member OF the club |
should be as sacrcdly guarded by all the
other club members as are those of the |
family, and that the use of dshonorablc |
political methods in club life for women
will be the deathkncll of pure, womanly
organizations.
| believe the golden rule for club wo
men should be. do right unto others, re-

A SONG IN THE RAIN.

1t isn't raining rain to me;
It's raining daflodils.
In every dimpled drop see
Wild flowers on the hills.
The clouds of gray engulf the day
And overwhelm the town;
1t isn't raining rain to me;
It's raining roses down.
1t isn't raining rain to me,
But fields OF clover bloom,
Where any buccanecring bee
May find a bed and room.
A health unto the happy;
A fig for him who frets.
1t isn't raining rain to me,
It's raining violets.
