HUSBAND AND HOME
ARE THESE THE CHIEF IDEALS
OF WOMAN?
Writer Claims That To-day, as Ever,
the instincts Of the Gentier Sex
Are for Love and Protecslon-Tne
Mother the Bond Of All.

A generation ago to be an ideal
fiousekeeper was the chief ambition
OF almost every women. No girl de-
sired fairer fate than to be placed
at the head Of household with a
good and loving husband to supply all
her wants and make her the mistress
and the queen of his heart and his
home. In most cases the girl who
started housekeeping had more or
less experience in the art under the
tuition of her mother. She loved to-
decorate and beautify the house
which was to be her home during the
rest of her earthly pilgrimage. She
loved to create delicacies for her
husband and her children, and, dis.
guise it as we may, much of the at.
lection she received was due entirely
% her skill as homemaker.
When her children grew up around
ner this kind and sympathetic moth
er and the pantry were the chief at,
fractions IN their world. AS they
grew older the ties only grew the
stronger. When they acquired fam.
lilies of their own the old homestead.
with its abundance of good things,
still had attractions for them. The
kind old mother was still their best
friend. She knew all the difficulties
they had to encounter in starting
homes Of their own, and her advice
and sympathy were worth more to
them than gold. The grandchildren
came to venerate her as sort of ven
cradle goddess, and when she finally
went away from the home circle she
left vacancy which could never be
sled.
But we are assured with every
symptom OF rejoicing that these con-
ditions are passing; that women have
been emancipated; that in the future
they are to be the rival, instead of
the helpmate of man, and that they
must combine to enforce their just
demands against the hostility Of the
male sex. This is nonsense pure and
simple. 1t may be true that there
are more mannish women in this
generation than there were in the
leiol. u is unfortunately true LnaL
larger proportion OF the female popu-
lation has been forced to be self-sup-
porting, but it is not true that wom-
en- enjoy the so-called liberty which
goes with toiling for living.
The home instinct is too deeply
planted in the heart of women to be
removed by the effects of genera
ton OF club work. It will never be
removed. A few women may go af-
ter strange gods, but the natural,
wholesome girl will still find her
highest ideal of happiness in good
husband and a coy home. The clubs
may succeed in making such homes
impossible to a few men and women
Cy making the young women feel that
they have a more important work in
the world than the prosaic duty of
home.making, but among the masses
of the American people the mother
will continue to be the bond which
unites the unit1es Of that holy insti-
tuition the family, and she will con-
tinue in this exalted role until the
end of all things.-Peoria Herald

The agricultural appropriation bill
was before the House. Representa-
tive Rixey OF Virginia was advocating
an increase from $4,000 to $25, 900 for
the experimental farm owned by the
government at Arlington. He said
the small amount allowed was not
enough to produce substantial results.
Representative Wadsworth, In
charge OF the bill, pointed out that
$4,000 was appropriated for the farm
annually, and that year after year this

BEAUTlFYiNG A STATE.
Two Californians Imported Birds and

Whenever see any of these prop

Senator Perkins of California, the

work done to beautify the State of
California by citizen of Altadena.
which is hard by Pasadena. The
mans name is Andrew Mentally, and
when he came to California there
were few birds at Altadena, and
those few were hardly what we would
call beautiful. Mentally made up his
mind that he land needed birds, so
he built him an aviary and imported
many hundreds of his feathered
friends. Once year he would open
the doors Of his aviary and let the
young birds fly whithersoever they
would, and in a short time the whole
country was populated with feathered
creatures Of every variety of hue and
song. His example was followed by
Joseph Grinnell and Mrs. Grinnell.
both Of whom were ardent ornitholo-
gists, so that now the country around
Pasadena Is a garden spot for birds
OF beautiful plumage. Many of the
birds that were imported came from
Japan and China. So you see there
are more ways than one of beautify.
