THE PRINCETON UNION: THURSDAY april 8 1905

At last proofs are forthcoming to
show that as woman becomes more
nearly emancipated she becomes less
fitted for domestic life, says the New
York Tribune. Terrible as this thought
Is, we cannot deny its truth in the face
of the latest investigation launched by
the Women's Municipal league The
plan is to discover some method of
purifying dishwater so that patrons OF
public tables may be spared the fear
Of contracting germ diseases.
Sterilizing solutions will be concoct.
ed and tested. Statistics will be COM
piled about the geographical distribu-
ton and frequency of microbes on
plates and forks. Perhaps half dozen
magazine articles will be evolved be-
fore some mere man butts into the
emancipated conclave with the sugges-
ton that thorough rinsing with boil
ing soapy water will send most of the
wicked germs either to Nirvana or
else down the drainpipe and that any
body who can't get the better of the
few survivors is bound to die soon
anyhow. Being emancipated from
dishwater has its disadvantages.

the land that was not used will be
sown into clover or made into sheep

where the farmers of Akeley show
thier good sense.

those statements as being typical of
the general expression of the people
seen:

with ny stomach for the past two
years, and have had rheumatism for
more than five years. Sometimes ]

Hard knots would form on my mus.
