The Kitchen,
"The Heart of the Home"

In an address before the Chi>ago Won
ans club the other day. Mrs Lynden
Evans declared that women will never he
the equal Of men until they lift their pc
culiar occupations to the height of intel
lectual development and moral power
which has won recognition in all the
other fields of life. The kitchen is the
heart of the home" said this woman
"and its industries. intelligently under
stood, are the most educational of all pos
sible influences"
Not everyone will accept this metaphor
about the kitchen iIeing the heart of the
nome, but all will agree that it is the
most important branch of the household.
whether it is called the stomach of the
hcme or the heart of the home. We have
cOntended all along that the average
kitchen is about a hundred years behind
the industrial procession. Everything else
has progressed. Inventive genius and sci
ence have combined to make easier the
work n every other department of human
endeavor. aud the product, therefore, is
more perfectly adapted TO the purposes for
which it is intended. But the heart of
the home has been turned over largely to
ignorant foreigners who have to have
some place to stay while they are learning
the English language. As soon as they
are able 80 make themselves understood
they seek employment in factories, offices,
stores and laundrieS. In the meantime
they have ruined the stomachs OF several
families.
The kitchen is really the only part Of
household management requiring a scen-
titic knowledge. IL is the chemical lab
oratory Of the domestic establishment.
1t sustains a vital relation to the FAM
lily. And yet the average housewife al-
pears perfectly willing to turn it over -
the raw and untutored material THAI
comes across the water in the steerace.
She regards the kitchen as the dinEy
abode Of black pots and kettles. and she
sees nothing in its management but dish
washing and drudgery.
Ii there is nothing in the average
kitchen but drudgery and dishwashing
it is the fault OF the American house
wife. As a matter al fact. the dish
washing and many other things now

Woman's Industry.

Productive industry is wOmanS nat
ural field of expression. She carried it
on at home first. while the world was
full of warfare but now that man has
also become Industrious she has as much
place in the world as he. Work is wom-
ans own distinctive province, but the
habit of doing it at home alone is merely
LEFTOVER" from those old times when
the home was the only safe place. Now
we have peaceful. orderly. Industrial
community, with scientific discoveries
and mechanical inventions which give
freedom and power to women as well as
men. The education of boys and girls
Is sufficiently equal to allow the develop
ment of human faculties in women, and
each step of increased opportunity they
have followed with increased ability
Each year sees larger number of girls
who are no more willing to stay at home
and do nothing. or 10 stay at home and
do homework, than their brothers are.
Why should they be? Why should an
intelligent, able-bOdied young woman be
content not to take part in the great
vital processes of SOciety--in the word'S
work! The opposition TO her so doing
has several grounds, and as many faces.
One is this proposition that she shouG
leave the work-that Is. the waGes--that
strictly limited crop of benefits-to those
who need il most. Let US take Il good

The Teacup Craze.

The teacup craze has much to COM
mend it, say the enthusiasts. Teacups
are easy to keep clean, and are not only
ornaments to the china closet and plate
rack, but are useful.
One woman who has travelled around
the world has made it Il point TO collect
one or two cups in each country. In Ha-
wali she purchased one of the 'Kameha-
meha the First poi cups, made cut of
the ko wood. In Japan she bought one
OF the h1ndleless teacups OF satsuma.
Corea, China, India, the Philippines.
Russia and the different European coun-
tries were all represented with charac-
teristic cup
Another woman globe trotter went Il
step further and collected one complete
tea set i'll each country. so she has tea
pots as well as teacupS, including the
marked with the name of the country
and the coat of arms or crest of the ruiz
ing power. Sometimes their owner gives
delightful tea parties. transporting her
GUESTS to China. Japan or Russia, as the
spirit moves her.

who knew of her penchant for teacups.
Each cup is decorated with the floral
emblem of the state in which the donor

quotation.
OF course, the California teacup and
saucer are decorated with yellow
escholtzia. commonly called California
peoples. In gilt letters on the cup are
the words Love but only her"
An engaged girl is the proud possessor
OF an engagement set" which shows
much originality. These teacups and sa,i-
GERS are also decorated with flowers and
the monogram of the recipient. On the
pansy cup is 'Panses for thoughts. =
The dainty forget-me-not cup SAYS. .For-
get me not On the rose cup are the
words, MY love is like a red red rose. .
On the holly cup and saucer are number
less bells strung together with the red
berries. This cup appropriately reads,
All went merry as marriage bell -
Other quotations which have been
transferred to the dainty china are: ITO

must needs be Blind" None knew thee
but to love thee

Other cups are shown with quotations.
These cups come N all sorts of odd shapes
and sizes, but the most popular are the
diamond and crescent shapes.

Hwy She Retained Her Youth.

Women who are asking how to keep
young as the gray hairs appear above
their brows would do wei Ito try the
recipe of an old lady who. although she
had seen so years. never impressed one
as being old. because her heart was still
young and sympathetic. When asked
how She had secured such apparent youth
in age, she said:
II knew how to forget disagreeable
things.
Il tried to master the art of saying
pleasant things.
Il did not expect too much of nay
friends.
Il kept my nerves well in hand and
did not allow them to bore other people.
81 tried to find any work that came
10 hand congenial.
II retained the illusions of my youth,
and did not believe every man Il liar
and every woman spiteful.
II did my best to relieve the misery
came in contact with, and sympathized
with the suffering.
I'm fact, l tried to do to others as
would be done by."-Selected.

The market opened weak, largely because of lower cables and large report of additional rain in the Southwest, ef- fectually breaking the long drought in that section.

 Corn was subject to about the same experi- ence as wheat with the possible exception that the pit crowd was less fearful of selling corn than wheat: The early market was compara- lively steady owing to firm cables and the large shipping business done yesterday With the break in wheat, however, weakness soon developed and prices declined sharply. The market received good support at times but 1t was sufficient to cause only slight rallies and offerings continued to come out on small news The close was weak at nearly the bottom May opened shade lower to a shade higher at 4sYd5o sold to 49%a4e and closed at 4eh g4Vt Receipts, SIP cars. 2 contract grade

Another Day of Active and Varied Trading in stocks-Enormous ,. Blocks in Thousands of
 e Shares Are Handled.

NEW YORK. Jan. 22.AAnother day of &C., tive and varied trading in stocks marked the up in the last few days The manner in which enormous blocks of stocks in thousands of shares were Hurled from portion of the market to another was sufficient evidence that leadership of the market was in daring and powerful hands About the only news from a stock market standpoint was made up of the surmises as to the personality of the newly active speculative party and the Identity or their operations. whether on the buying or the selling side. Some of the selling, was openly done in the interest of the principal in. buying at other points with ostentation and vociferetion. The popular supposition was that the newly active party fin the stock market .in- cluded speculative elements that have been prominent in cotton and in grain during the recent activity in thos emarkets and that some thing like . pool had been arranged by which these various clements were acting in con cert to lift the prices of stocks to their own profit The trading presented all the charac- teristics of the periods of activity of such or ganixed speculation. The buying and bidding up of prices was skilifuily shifted from one to another quarter. calculated to affect opin- ion on the market as . whole and selling at other points were coincidentally carried on in the realizing on profits, Late In the day the reactionary tendency became fairly general uti- der the weight of sthe selling to realize and tho level of prices receded materially from the highest. The trading was somewhat az Eravated by the report of a banking faitufe in Cleveland and the downward tendency was not very effectually arrested before the close which with an unstable forecast of avery unfavorable bank statement for tomorrow did not serve to sustain the late market. as such showing has been counted upon throughout the week. owing to the extreme ease of money. Estimates of the receipts of currency from the interior are unusually at variance so that the gain in cash q is reckoned all the way from eight to thirteen millions of dollars from all sources. The lessened prospect of war. in duces higher prices abroad as well as here hut there is no eign in foreign markets of the animation awakened here. Foreigners bought a few thousand shares here today and the hst- ing of Baltimore and Ohio on the Berlin Bouree was a strengthening influence on all tho sub sidiary companies of the Pennsylvania.
