ticularly the reciprocity side" to the
project. which is TO send Englishwo-
men for a two years postgraduate
study to America or Canada, to the
Johns Hopkins university at Baltimore,
for instance, or to the McGn univer-

lege to make the start. and already,
after two short years work, a very
successful beginning has been made.
The Society OF American Women in
London has pledged itself to a two
years income for one scholar from the
District OF Columbia. while Nine. Thay-
er herself has undertaken to raise one

state of Louisiana. The education COM
mittee of the General Federation Of

ised TO endow one scholarship in per-
petuity and has recommended It's gen.
eral body to take up these scholarships
as one line Of its work. The General

MUST PREPAY
ON WET" GOODS

WASHINGTON. April 6.-The SEN
ate Committee on judiciary has decid
ed to report a bill at an early day in
tended to afford the States better sup
port in their attempts to enforce loca.
option laws. The committee has de-
cided that all the bills offered having
in view the object Of giving the States
control OF liquor in Interstate com
merce after Il passes within the hord D.
ers Of the State TO which It Is con
signed will be open to constitutional
objections.
Senator Knox, chairman Of the SUBJ
committee which has had the matter in
charge. Is Of the opinion that the police
power of the state, under which the
sale and disposition OF liquors is reg
ulated. can neither be enlarged nor di-
minished by Federal laws. other mem-
bers of the committee have coincided
with this view
The committee proposes. therefore, 81
report a bill 10 abolish shipments q
O. ID. OF liquors and to require that
all charges be prepaid; also to re-
quire that the name OF the consignee
In every case be definite. and further,
that every package OF liquor entered
In interstate commerce shall be plain
ly marked as such TO make identlfica-
tion more certain.
Most OF the complaints heard by the
advocates Of more stringent legislation
are met, Il is believed. by the legisla-
tion proposed. The violations. as a
rule, were made possible. II appeare
by fictitious eonsignees and the c. O.

For the Lsystte.

One OF the most useful articles for
the layette is the flannel blanket for
baby's bath The bath blanket is not
only an apron for the protection OF the
mothers gown, but also a soft warm
wrap to infold the delicate little body
Of the infant as It is taken from the
tub. These blankets are usually made
Of a good. heavy weight wool flannel.
and two yards Of material are required.
Double the goods, which gives two
lengths of one yard each. Make a tuck
an inch deep where the flannel is fold
ed over and run through 1t inch wide
wash ribbon. Of any preferred color
having it sufficiently long TO tie around
the waist when in use. The edges Of
this blanket apron may have a binding
Of wash ribbon corresponding in color
to the waist ribbon. or they may be
simply buttonholed with wash silk.
