Buys Coffin and keg of Powder.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Sept. 12.-An
original method of suicide was chosen
by an Indian chief of Bella Bella. He
sent for a 500 coffin and a key Of gun
powder. The former he carefully
housed in a shed; the latter he placed
under his bed.
During the night the villages were
startled by terrific explosion. Rush

blown to atoms. Small fragments of his

A SCHOOL FOR HOMEMAKERS
Practical Class In a Fashionable Phil

PHILADELPHIA Sept 12.-"Brides
Trained Here might we'll be the in
scription on the shingle of a new insti-
tuition of learning at Logan, a fashion
able suburb, where there are twenty
three students in a class presided over
by Miss Ethel Henderickson. At the
beginning of the term the girls start
their notebooks with fourteen headings
leaving blank spaces for comment and
elaboration of the main ideas A
glimpse at the headings is enough to

tween baby and husband. Be interest

The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1904-09-12

Take pains to be an entertaining.
cheerful and interested companion. Be
as careful in your attire and as anx-
ious to please as before marriage. En-
courage your husband to spend at least
one niglt week at the club or with
the boys" Encourage him to bring his
friends home and have at least one
mans room where he can entertain
with perfect freedom.
1t is all done on a practical basis.
Feed him substantially is the first
edict. Students are taught that this
does not mean anything like stuffing a
husband with fearfully and deliberately
a French cook. 1t means that they
are to find out what he likes best and
have it cooked in that fashion.
The process begins in marketing.
The girls are taught how to choose the
best cuts of meat. how to select
proper fowl, and how to distinguish
fresh vegetables from those in a rum
age-sale condition of usefulness, and
they learn to market without draining
the pocketbook. They are taught that
enough for two" does not mean a sup
ply for a regiment.
Having mastered marketing, the
prospective bride sets to work making
meals. Supplies in every detail are
taken up in routine until the pupil has
mastered the entire cooking and serv-
ing of full-course dinner, even into
brewing a favorte punch
Room arranging is practiced. The
furniture is arranged and placed for
various effects. Hangings are rehung
and cushions are disposed of to get the
best results in comfort and appearance.
Furnishing a house from top to bottom
is one of the practical lessons that
come under this head, and students are
required, in theory, to buy every ar
ticle of equipment, from a nutmeg
crater to grand piano, and to deco
rate various rooms in the house ad
ntO fit them with all appurtenanCes
ready for immediate occupancy.

Pile on that platform. as a paramount
issue.
1t is quite freely admitted that pat
riotism and sentiment aside the weight
of public opinion in Canada is still i'm
favor of fair reciprocal treaty with
the United States. Tariff or no tariff,
it is impossible for the practician to
get away from the fact that these two
contiguous countries are the best Gus
toners that either could wish for.
But there are two obstacles i'm the
way of renewal of trade facilities One,
and perhaps the most important, is the
widespread and growing patriotic SEN
timent in Canada with regard to Eng
land; and the other is the hitherto
hostile. or at least discouraging DOS
ture of the American congress toward
Canada's reciprocal approaches Both
of these obstacles are great, tangible
and imminent.
