During the last year many of the
young ONE Of the Illinois and
Michigan towns have formed small
clubs that have become very. popular
among the country folk, announces
the Chicago Record-Herald. To a
great extent the clubs are formed of
working girls who are employed dur
ing the day. The clubs are all small
in membership, few numbering more
than five. The girls act together in
matters that to them seem best cal
culated to advance their condition So
cially and Intellectually. They buy
books and read them together, talk
about them and occasionally they
hold a social function. In some oil
the towns there are a half dozen Oh
these small clubs, ali of the members
/ being young wome workers of the
community. A representative organi
cation of this nature is the Cleo Clul

The Color Of Whisky.

"a query about Scotch whisky"
writes H. P. M, "is, does color indi-
cate age?" Theoretically it should;
actually it does not. Whisky is stored
in sherry casks to mature and takes
color from the wood. Sherry, how
ever, overs a wide range of shades,
and a spirit stored in a cask which
had held a pale variety would OBJ
viously not be colored to the same
extent as a spirit stored for a like
time in a cask that had previously
held a dark-brown wine, though as
regards maturing both would be equal.
ly improved. The general public,
however, could never be got to under.
stand that two bottles of whisky diff
fering in color were absolutely iden.
tical in every essential point, and
therefore most brands maintain a stan.
dard of color by means of a harmless
coloring Ingredient, namely, burnt
sugar."-London World.

from something like the booming of

forest skirting the commune. In this
forest. where the terrified ~peasantry
gathered in expectation of some cal

A Question of Expedieney.

The women of the national suffrage
association are deeply offended at the
national republican party because it
has again ignored their plea for a
favoring plank in their platform.
They have issued indignant protests,
ali based on the theory that intelli-
gence alone is the standard by which
suffrage is apportioned to mankind
as, perhaps, it rightly should be.
But this is where the women are
away off in their arguments. Men do
not question woman's intelligence in
this connection-they know that the
duty of suffrage does not necessarily
require any greater degree of intelli-
gence than does the rearing of a
child-it is simply a question of ex-
pediency with them.
The scheme of home building on
which this country has grown up in
wolves an endless amount of work in
which men and women are partners.
1t is all important and necessary,

proper; the women have made the
homes, the men furnished the mate
rial and protected it. Government,
legislative, executive and Judicial, is a
part of this protection. This appor-
tionment has all these years seemed
wise and satisfactory, although there
have of course been unfaithful work
ers on both sides and dissatisfied and
critical ones. The best of rules has
its exceptions.
The home is what we are all work.
ing for. 1t is the source Of the ma
tons vitality and the nation exists
for it only. Man is merely the repre-
sentative Of the family in government
al affairs. That is why the national
committee ignored the pleas for jus
tice from these women as they COM
plain. and turned its attention to dis
reimbursement wrongs of the black in
the south. That was a case where
Windham County reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1901-1906, 1904-07-08

families had been deprived of repre-
sentation.
II is true that there are women with
large property interests, with ana
without families, unrepresented
in government making; but
there are also men who do their share
of the latter work, though having no
homes or families. Women complain
that men are not running the Affairs
of state and nation properly and they
want TO lend hand. Men might as
Justly say that women are not manag-
ing the homes or bringing up the chil-
dren properly and demand the right
TO stay at home and do the work as
it should be done according to their
view. Either way, it's a case OF but
ting-in
Women should reflect that If so
much error exists in the work of gov
eminent. there must be something
wrong in the homes that produced the
workers Suppose they try the en-
pertinent of applying their high ideals
their intelligence and education more
zealously to reform in the home, and
see If they cannot produce better
workers-men who will be worthy and
able. even from their standard, to rep
resent and defend the home.

Tax acts.

1T isn't quite obvious" remarks the
Burlington Daily News, why man
might not owe more than he could
paw. even if he did have $4,000 in
cash"
Who said it was? The whole point
about the exemption of savings de-
posits UP to $4,000 and the offset for
debts is simply that a taxpayer who
claims an offset must list such cash
or other securities as might be APP
Piled to the reduction of the debts he
owes
We do not agree that money IN the
savings banks pays higher tax than
money anywhere else. 1t may be that
much taxable cash evades listing al
together, but the income to the state
or local government from each $1,000
placed in the savings bank is not as
great as the income from each $1,000
invested in real estate. The Burling-
ton News seems to think that money
put in the savings bank is kept in
silver and gold right in the vaults
and is comparable only to silver and
gold in the possession of individuals.
