sign forthwith and turn the
machinery over to Sneaker Cox.
1t is our opinion that the people
of Tennessee will get enough of
Cox before his time is out. In
fact there is no certainty, under
the Interpretation of the law made
by several of the leading papers,
that Tennessee has a legal gov
ernor. The law is very vague
upon the point involved in success
sion. 1t does not say whether the
speaker shall serve until the end
of the term or until the Legisla-
ture can make an appointment. 1t
is indefinite and therefore Tennes-
see is placed in the very unenvia-
BILE position of having man who
may or may not be governor ac-
cording to lava question for the
courts. Since Governor Cox has
qualified, however, perhaps the
drug will quiet its nerves.

The Farm Beautiful.

Now you know how | am always and
forever preaching about having every
thing about farm pretty! Well, it
seems I was not the only person in the
world with that idea-for I ran across
one in the real-my dream came true!
There was just a whitewashed picket
fence to begin with, and the gate
swung on a good stout hinge, that &C
quainted me with the fact that people
lived there who did not like things
"wobbly". 1t opened on a dear wind
ing path, which bye and bye encoun-
tered little brook and over that there
was just little rustic work and
clumps of trees here and there. Most
Of the shrubbery was from our own
woods-the Towering currant, the wild
syringa, and the feathery spirea.
saw little punches of the dogwood
too, and supposed they had grown
there themselves until was told they
were transplanted. But I thought they
never grew if they were disturbed;
and then they told me, if the trees
were taken up and replanted at
Christmas time at least half of them
would live, so, as everybody loves dog
wood, I thought / would make note
of it for my sisters. 1t seems that
when the sap is at perfect rest is the
artistic moment to surprise them.
Well, it was dream to go through
the yard-and the house justified ali
the approach promised! Yet there was
nothing expensive there. 1t was just
simple and beautifully clean, and the
colors were pretty, as though some one
had sat down and thought out what
would be harmonious. The carpet was
not an awful tumble of reds and vel

lows and green's, but the figures were
small and quiet, and the pillows with
out any embroidery were made in
denim, burlaps and canvas-dark and
moss green, brown and scarlet-Just
plain square cushions without any
ruffies, nor any awful flowers or cats
or pictures on them. They frightened
the room without being tawdry. The
curtains were cheese cloth, hanging
lust to the sill on both sides, and about
foot long from the pole in the mid
die to where they commenced to be
long there were lowered silkoline
curtains to harmonic with the carpet
with a touch of red in them. There
were only two or three pictures on
the walls, which were KalsOmined
sort of snuff color; and there were
some shelves with few plain glass
vases for flowers and a pretty brass
ornament or two, and some nice book
cases. The furniture was not up
holstered! There we're two big rock
ing chairs in light wood with the
large arm rests and a wooden sofa
and some wooden chairs made mis-
sion fashion, with the square legs
and a long square table to match the
chairs, on which was a plain brass
lamp with a dull red shade perfectly
plain 1t was all so pretty and At
tractive and I wondered how it all
came about so I frankly asked, and
the woman told me. She had always
wanted it pretty, but found it very
hard to make it so till one day her
husband said to her "My dear, when
your birthday comes l am going to
let you have your way about fixing
over the home" and by the time her
birthday did come she had written to
woman friend to help her out with
the whole thing and tell her what to
do-and they have had more happiness
out of it than any money they ever
spent. Well, it looks like a place
where people live-not where they
stay Just to drudge and think of moth
ing else but the hard work of life. 1t
helps to make life beautiful to be
surrounded by beauty

To Save Time.

While the breakfast is cooking wash
a saucepanful of potatoes, have the
Jackets on and cook them in boiling
sailed water Do not set the sauce
pan where the water will boil furiously
but just gently simmer as violent boil
ing breaks them to pieces. 1t is easy
then to peel them for the next meal
when they are cold, and either make
cream sauce of milk with tablespoon
full of butter mixed with tablespoon
full of flour added to it when it gets
warm, teaspoonful of minced pars-
ley, or fried light brown with some
minced onion, or made into potato
salad. There are quite number OF
vegetables that are as good warmed
over rs when first cooked, and little
planning ahead will often save Wo-
man hours over the stove. For in
stance, beets can be cooked any time
there is good fire and ready for heat
ing up in a jiffy-and string beans, and
cauliflower, and carrots, and, in fact,
nearly all of them. Enough can he
cooked at one time to last for two days
and this is something to consider.
With cauli1ower, potatoes, turnips,
beans and cabbage, I advise putting
them in boiling water for ten minutes
to heat through and freshen up and
then proceed as though they had been
cooked that moment. This is a big
me-saving scheme. Try it.

The Women of Japan.

l attended a very interesting lecture
a few evenings ago, given by Japan
csc woman She spoke very good Eng
lish and unlike most of her sisters
from the land of the cherry blossom
looked as though the American dress
she wore belonged to her. She spoke
of the three most prominent character
istics of the Japanese women. First,
she said, however, that all their early
training was unnatural in that they
we're taught to repress as something
to be ashamed of, any expression of
anger, grief, pain or Joy. To laugh
beyond a smile is not considered we'll
bred, and to show the tongue in laugh
ing is positive breach of good man
ners. When Japanese girl gets
angry she says nothing, and if her feel
ings are hurt and she wants to cry she
goes to her own room and has it out
alone. This repression was spoken of
as the first characteristic and then
came her bravery-that she is always
willing to sacrifice herself in any cause
for the good of her father husband or
brother. An instance was cited of a
woman whose husband was called to
war, who hesitated about going be-
cause he did not want to leave her, so
she brought him a sword and said:
eff it is on my account you hesitate,
why, end the difficulty at once-talle
my life. and gO!" whereupOn the man.
seeing her courage, plucked up heart
and departed. Eve evidently was not
the name of the lady in the Japanese
Garden of Eden! And finally obed
fence was mentioned as the third trait
most prominent. The women obey
implicitly and without question what
they are told to do by their elders and
the male members of the family, and
such a thing as personal service Of
fered by man would be unheard Of
The lecturer was shocked because she
had noticed American men help their
wives with putting on their wraps and
overshocs, and helping them about
their umbrellas. Now what do you
think of that? Well, all have to say
about it is: God bless our American
