men will lose interest in them. Without in
terest, they will fail in intelligent compre-
hension of them. The tendency of man.
hood suffrage is TO give broader views,
wiser methods of action and higher patriot
ism. While democraoc forms often yield
bad government. IL is through their opera
ton that we have the best guarantee OF
good government in the future.
If voting has this effect on man.. we
have a right to expect similar results from
the extension of the suffrage to woman. IL
has been made a reproach TO women that
they are sh~ort-sighted. devoted TO the near
and the immediate, careless of ultimate re-
suits. This tendency exists in the nature
OF things, for woman's sphere Is the home
rather than the nation. But, IL ii be a re-
proach, the extension Of responsibility
would correct IT.
man Is prone TO feel a greater interest in
far-away affairs, which he cannot control,
than in neal matters which affect him vi
tally. He neglects the home and it's needs,
in his interest in the Nation. The sanitation
of our own streets, the extinction OF the
slums Of our own city. the publication OF
centers of corrosion which destroy our own
children, is far more vital TO us, as individ-
uals, than the problems of Imperialism. OF
In great affairs our Republic is the most
stable OF nations. Her failure is In local
and municipal administration. 1t is the re-
hex of the of the average man.
This the shorter but clearer sight Of the
average woman would tend to counterfeit"

wedding breakfast, which followed the
ceremony, the brides table was laid in

H SUNBONNET.
An Adjunct to the Woman Who Goes
to the Country.
New York Times.

New York Times.
An adjunct to her wardrobe that every
other woman gets nowadays before she
goes into the country is a sunbonnet. These
convenient head coverings, which may be
pretty or otherwise, have become a staple
In woman's wearing apparel and are TO be
found where other parts of her wardrobe
are sold, ready-made, in all the shops.
They may be had as low as ten cents. and
they may cost a dollar or more; they are
always useful and may be becoming. One
pretty girl with a Maud Muller style of
face wore a sunbonnet in her trip across
the ocean. 1t was undoubtedly agreeable,
protecting her eyes from the glaring light
and her complexion from the wind, and
incidentally she was as pretty as a picture
in 1t. However, sunbonnets will not be
generally adopted for ocean travel: but
they have risen above the fad stage which
they occupied a few years ago.
The Sunbonnet dates back, no one knows
how many years. and 1t Is possible that
they were worn by the first ancestress of
the race when she began TO enlarge her
wardrobe. 1t was never thought necessary
to put the evolution Of the sunbonnet on
record. 1t has not figured in fashion plates
and its history can never be exact. How
ever. when the grandmothers and great
OF the present generation
were doing more household work than their
descendants have found necessary the sun
bonnet was in common use. 1t was made
usually of checked ginghams, blue or pink
or brown or green and white, and was made
broad in front to shade the eyes and with
an ample cape TO cover the neck and shout
ders. 1t was useful TO wear In hanging out
the weekly wash or in feeding the chickens.
1t was not made TO enhance the charms of
its wearers, but to protect them.
Ugliness and the old-time sunbonnet were
synonymous terms. II was made without
pretense TO beauty and height or might not
have a tiny frill around the face. Some
times ii was starched stiff, but IL was quite
as often left unstarched and dropped shah
billy around the face. One style of bonnet
was made with pasteboard Stats in the
front to hold II out. and there was the
funny, scoop-like Shaker bonnet of fat
plated straw with a little curtain of cloth
hanging down at the back. This was a style
originated by the Shakers and worn By
them.
A few years ago with the introduction of
golf there was a rise in the sunbonnet
market. 1t was suddenly discovered TIA
made in pretty, becoming colors. and IL
be becoming, and many were ordered. Per-
haps with the golf players they were least
worn, but the name carried them into pop
ularity. Pretty. new shapes were devol-
oped and the sunbonnet came TO stay. The
fad Is over. but the s~unbonnet remains.
In the shops they are made In varieties OF
plain or striped materials. sstarched stif
and with a high polish. with one or two ruff
fies around the edge. or possibly without
them. They are sold In this form at reason
able prices. They are shorter In the front
than the old-time bonnet. and the cape In
the back Is & tiny affair. useful to protect
the back or the neck but not large enough

Electric Cooker.
New York Evening Post.

lOih ENtbin EOSt.
A patent has just been granted for an
adjustable or flexible electric cooking de-
vice. 1t is based upon the use Of heating
coils or spirals inclosed within the cook
ing chamber, associated with portable
heater trays in which the coils are grouped
between plates. For utilizing these cleo
trio rays or heaters the inventor provides
an oven or stove consisting OF a casing
into which the trays are inserted, so as
to serve as shelves on which to place the
articles TO be cooked. The sides OF the
oven are provided with lodges or cleats for
upholding the tray and so that any tray
can be placed on any pair OF cleats and
thereby set in the oven at any desired
height. Removable grids OF gratings are
provided as shelves between the electric
trays or upon lodges not occupied by the
latter. The top Of the stove is provided
with stove holes, as usual, under each OF
which is provided a special electric tray or
heater. For introducing the electric heat
ers in circuit they are provided with circuit
terminals connected TO the coils, adapted
for connection with exterior conductors
with the respective circuit leads; one or
both Of the connections consisting OF a
metallic socket in the heater connected
with the coils and adapted TO receive a
metal pin or plug connected by a wire or
cable with the stationary circuit lead.
