College Women for Suffrage.

At Buffalo, N. Y, recently one of the
most interesting features of the suf-
frage meeting which convened in that
city was the forming of an Equal Suffrage
league by the college women of the coun-
try to be known as the College Equal
Suffrage league. The call for the coun-
ell was signed by six of the foremost
college women, all representing in n
high sense not only the American col
lege woman, but the national movement
for equal rights. The signers We're Miss
NJ. Carey Thomas, Phi. D., LII. D.,
president of Bryn-Mawr, representing
Pennsylvania; Mary Garrett of Balti-
more who gave 100000 to the endow-
ment of Johns Hopkins Medical school

ident of Mount Holyolke, representing

cent graduate of Barnard, representing
New York; Mrs. Herbert Parsons and

Garvin, representing Rhode Island
In their call for college women to
organize for the suffrage the promoters
of the league say that it was founded
In 1900 by Mrs. Mary Wood Park, pres
ident of the Boston Equal Suffrage asso-
citation, because of the debt that col
lege women owe to the suffrage move
ment in making higher education pos
sible for them. Mrs Park followed Susan
B. Anthony in her efforts for higher
opportunities for women. Mrs. Park is
a graduate of Radcliffe and won the
Optima medal in 1899.

The Frost Is on the Pumpkin.

Happy season! The frost is on the
pumpkin, the sausage is in the market,
and the buckwheat is in the mill. Brief
ly told it is the season which a number
of people consider the time of all others
for the queen of all grlddle cakes-the
much liked buckwheat. Now the buck
wheat cake is delicious If properly made,
but woe to the amateur housekeeper who
hasn't "her hand In" so to speak, for
this sort of thing. It seems a simple
enough arrangement to bake cake on a.
griddle, but Just try it some day, We I'M
initiated, and see how 1t works. 1 heard
an ''old time-y" housekeeper tell this lit
tie story the other day. She said:
"Once upon a time knew an egotfstical
young person who thought that she could
perform this simple feat without trouble
1t was on one of those occasions when
the cook had left without lingering adieus
and there was no time to take a course
in the culinary art.
We'll, the egotistical young person put
the griddle on a very hot fire and left it
there while she made the coffee and
prepared certain other things. Finally
when all else was ready she began to
bake the cakes. She put six on the hot
hot baker, and lol In one minute they
were burned black on the outside, while
the inside was raw.
Now, there were three hungry men in
the dining room waiting for their break
fasts, and before she succeeded in get
ting that griddle to the temperature
proper to give the cakes beautiful
brown shade and bake them nicely
through and through all the batter was
used UP and there was nothing left for
the hungry men but some cold bread.
This little incident so took the concet
out of the heroine of this story that she
went at once to a cooking school and
learned how to cook, which included
learning how to bake cakes on top of the
stove"
The "old time-y' housekeeper incident
ally gave me the following recipe for
buckwheat cakes, which she has used
for many, many years. 1t is simple. and
is composed of one cup of milk and the
same of boiling water, two tablespoonfuls
of molasses, half cake of compressed
yeast dissolved in warm water, one-half
teaspoonful of salt, two cups buckwheat
flour or enough for good batter. Beat
five minutes, and set in a warm place
to rise. In the morning beat hard for
one minute; If 1t be sour, add little soda,
and let it rise near the fire for half an
hour before baking.

Euchre Decorations.

For the hostess who is seeking pretty
ideas for a enchre party come sugges-
tons may not he aniss.
For instance place high glass vase
with two or three long sternmed white
roses In the center OF your table.
Around the base CT the vase arrange
the picture cards-bowers, kings and
queens from q pack, In q circle like a
dolly.
The fees can be served IN boxes
Stimulating a pack OF cards, and paper
napkins on which cards are printed
will add to the decorative scheme.
Make sandwiches and cakes In shape
of hearts, diamonds, clubs and Spades
and have heart and diamond shaped
dishes for bonbons and sailed nuts.
AS artificial light always adds a
charm exclude daylight, as your euchre
Is an afternoon affair, and light the
room with candles. Get together as
many candelabra and candlestfcks as
you can find place for, putting them on
sideboard, shelf brack et-everywher
except on the table. They will give
the room soft, pretty light, not at
tanned with gas or electricity.
At each cover place a playing card
face up. alternating the black and red
suits. Duplicate these cards from an
other pack, and as the guests enter the
dining room deal out one that cor
responds to each place card, giving the
women red and the men black, If men
are present In this way the guests
will find tn cir places at table or part
ners with whom they are to converse.
IF refreshments are passed around the
table may be further decorated at each
corner with a house of balanced cards,
such as children delight in building,
and any person unfortunate enough to
knock one down must build 1T again
for the amusement of all present.
