WOMAN and
SOCIETY.

Love is honey mixed with gall,
A thraldom tree, freedom thrall;
A bitter sweet, pleasant sour,
Got in a year, lost IN all hour;
A peaceful war, a warlike peace,
Whose wealth brings want, whose
want increase:
Full long pursuit and little gain,
Uncertain pleasure, certain pain;
Regard of neither right nor wrong,
For short delights, repentance long.
Love is the sickness of the thought,
Conceit of pleasure dearly bought;
A restless passion of the mind,
A labyrinth of errors blind;
A sugared poison, fair deceit;
A bait for fools, furious heat;
A chilling cold, wondrous passion,
Exceeding mans imagination;
Which none can tell in whole or part,
But only he that feels the smart.

GERS sent to arrest him, determines to
become again freebooter. Benjamin
Hoiingoid, ex-pirate, who has been Bit
teriy wronsed by Morson, joins the for
tunes of the latter N order to seek an op
portunity to wreak vengeance on him.
Having recuited crew OF ex-pirates and
other despsradoes, Morgan seizes an
English frig ate and .ders her crew
Off for the Spanish coast in search of
treasure. In desperate action, wherein
are shown the daring and reSourseful-
ness of Morgan and the courage of his
men, he defeats two Spanish frigates
and captures their convoy, treasure
galIeon carrying an abbess and priests
as passengers, Morgan shows his
qualities by heaving overboard a muffin

First Short Course In Domestic
Economy at the State Col
lege a Success
FORTY STUDENTS ENROLLED
Many Interesting and Useful Things
are Taueht-Tak About Introducing
Study of Domestic Economy in the
Public schooIs-Lecture on "AduI-
terated Foods"
Special to Times-Republican

Ames, Jan a. The short course
at the Iowa State College has been
a great success If the enthusiastic ex
pressions concerning it of those in at
tendance may be relied upon. This
is the first time a short course has
been attempted by this department and
about forty students have been en-
rolled from distant parts of the state.
A large number of Ames housewives,
who found it impossible to enroll for
the course have attended the after
noon demonstrations. paying a small
fee for each demonstrations. The work
Is under the supervision of Miss Geo
gia Witter, head of the department of
domestic science at the college. The
course has consisted of lectures In the
forenoons upon various subjects per-
tanning to domestic science such as
home sanitation, the chemistry of
foods, relative food values, etc. EX-
State School Superintent Barrett de-
livered an address upon The Intro
duction of the Branch of Domestic
Economy into the Public Schools" In
which he took the ground that it would
be desirable if sufficient number of
teachers could be properly qualified to
teach it, but thought 1t would be many
years before that could be brought a
bout and poor teaching would be in
finitely worse than no teaching. In
the afternoon practical demonstrations
in cooking are given. General princi-
pies and recipes are given for the pre-
paration of foods i'm the most whole
some as we'll as in dainty and tooth
some manner. Then the recipes are
followed out and the food Is cooked
in the presence of the class. one
afternoon Mr.. Gosling, a Kansas City
packer, who has appeared before inc
short course classes in Ames for sew
eral years, in succession, came to the
ladies accompanied by an expert meat
cutter from Chicago and with the
carcasses Of beef and mutton before
them endeavored to tell them how to
distinguish between good and poor
meat and how to know the different
cuts of meat. Professor Jones gave a
very interesting and instructive talk
on corn, its composition and food val
ue and Professor Bennett gave lee
ture on "Adulterated Foods" Miss
Writer and her assistants are receiV-
ing many compliments for their work
and there seems to be no doubt but
what there will be a large number In
attendance next year.
