William Hayes Leayih. president OF
Westminster college, Fulton, Mo-. in his
address at the banquet " the Society OF
Colonial Wars at the Southern hotel.
Mr.. Leavill. while drawing a contrast
between the modern women and the
women of the olden days. paid a high
compliment to the women of that day.
Few women of today would leave
their homes, their friends and all the at.
fractions of life TO follow their husbands
into a foreign land, as did the women OF
colonial days" said DIR. Leavill
Modern influences have had a deterio-
rating effect on women. They have de-
stroyed much of the attractiveness OF
women. However would not for one
moment urge that women should not be
attractive. If they were not pretty they
would not be attractive TO us.
The home is the place for women,
unless II is absolutely necessary for them
TO leave il. | do not believe any woman
should enter the field of business and
take q mans place, unless conditions re-
quired that she should do so. | am not
a believer in woman's rights as womans
rights are known today, but | do believe
in the woman's rights as they were
known a century ago. Goodness, euI-
tufe, meekness, beauty and loyeliness
are the traits we most admire in women.
Every woman should 'le a good cook.
CIVILIZED man cannot live without good
cooking and every woman should know
that the quickest ana surest way TO a
mans heart is through good cooking.

New Sandwiches.
While housewives are quite familiar
with the commonplace cheese sandwich,
they do not know much about the hot
ones. These are quite delicious, espe-
cially when served at light supper.
They are made of graham bread, thin
" sliced and spread with a paste. This
is made by rubbing six tablespoonfuls of
freshly grated cheese with two table
spoonfuls of butter.
1t is sprinkled with a little salt and
paprika. the two sides of the sandwich
are then firmly pressed together, and it
is fried in hot butter. As soon as it is
light brown it is done.
There is another new sandwich for
little suppers and afternoon teas which
has proved most Dalatable. 1t is made
of chicken and nuts.
The white meat of q chicken which
has been roasted or boiled is chopped
very fine, and to one cupful of it is add
ed a quarter of a cup of blanched al
monGs or English walnuts, also chopped
fine.
This is softened with sweet cream to a
paste Inat VIII spread easily on tue
bread. 1t is better when seasoned with
salt and paprika. 1t can be used on
either graham or white bread.
Another sandwich which is unusual
and toothsome is made of chocolate.
Two teaspoonfuls of powdered chocolate
are added to two of boiling water and
five of powdered sugar. If one likes a
little vanilla, it is added.
This is stirred over the fire until it is
smooth and thick. 1t is taken off the
stove to COOL and before it is solid it is
spread between extra thin slices of but
tered bread.

One Of the Right Kind.

A new picturesque, romantic
comedy drama has been made from
the famous story of the Hidden
Hand" and will be seen at the
City Opera House, Feb. 20.
The announcement should arouse
more than ordinary interest among
patrons of the best class of plays,
or people who like melodramas of
the genuine kind, for all accounts
agree that the author in this in
stance, a we'll known actor, has
succeeded in adding to the stock of
worthy American plays. Mrs. South
worth's story of the mountainfolk of
old Virginia will be seen in four
picturesque acts full of life, incident,
real characters. humor, superstition
and romance. he author has
avoided the extremely sensational,
but has retained the full charm and
power of the story.

Williams house. He believed that
Godetts, after shooting Williams,
had rushed into the house, grabbed
the old mans gun and fired it off
himself, afterwards laying the weapon
down besides Williams head.
Mr.. Stanton called attention to
the photo of the dead body and
the gun. The gun lay with the
stock at the right hand. Williams
would have had to be right-handed
to have shot the gun. Witnesses
had sworn that he was left-handed.
In his haste, Godetts had not
known which way to lay the stock
of the gun.
There was the pipe which witness
ses said had been found in the dead
mans mouth. Would a man with
murder in his heart set about the
carrying out of his attentions smok-

Why had not the defendant
brought his wife there to testify in
his behalf?
The defense had absolutely moth
