Romance Of Au.omohilina. A

We sped aiopg in spirits high that night
Through the soft glamour Of the pale
moonlight
Up hill and down. DER level, broad high
ways,
Their surface smooth deserving Of all
praise.
On either side the trees stood dark and
still
At times we heard the crickets chirping
shrill.
The whirlpool, too, sang his plaintive lay
To thrill US as we hastened on our way.
The romance of the evening filled our
souls,
And, though at times we bumped into
some holes
In the dark roadway, life seemed fair and
sweet,
Significant to us of Joy complete.
A mystic languor on our senses fell
And bound us in a sweet, enchanting
SPELL
Until we were some thirty miles from
town,
And then the blamed old benzine cart
broke down.

The SUffragist Of Today
Progress of the Movement
An Appeal to Mothers

Time was when woman's suffrage
was associated with short hair, bloom
ers and denunciations of the tyrant
man. This type Of suffragist regret
to say, was so striking that she yet re-
mains in the memory of the more con-
servative citizen, causing him to shud-
der at the very thought Of the eman-
cipation of his womankind. 1t is for
the benefit Of this man and of his wife,
who probably shares his views, and Of
others like them, who haven't kept
abreast Of the movement, that l want
to speak few words about the mod
ern American suffragist.
l absolutely believe she represents
the better element of her sex. She is
no longer a subject for cartoons. AS

Is it some loved one from the dear old

MRS. GABRIELLE STEWART MULLINER.
far as appearance goes, she is well
groomed, becomingly dressed and has
a diplomatic rather than an aggressive
manner. Her mind is logical, her man
ner of argument calm and her person
ality magnetic. and she is anything but
mannish. The suffrage movement Of
today counts thousands of women
who, like Mrs. Henry Willard, Mrs.
Clarence Mackay and Mrs. Gabrielle
Stewart Mulliner, are noted for their
social tact and charm as well as for
their intellectual qualities.
The present suffrage movement in
this country frowns upon the mascu'
line woman. 1t makes on the other
hand. an appeal to the mothers of the
land that 1t may help them do more
for their children and to the home
women in every state in the Union
that they may be able to vote for laws
that will protect the fireside and better
existing conditions.
Woman's suffrage wants the support
of every wife and every mother, and it
hopes sooner or later to have the sane
tion of every husband and every IA
ther. The movement is for the better
ment of the entire human race. Let
me quote from a recent speech of Mrs.
Gabrielle Stewart Mulliner:
do not start from the mistaken stand
point that all men are uneducated, tricky
dishonest, incapable voters and oftcehold-
ers, who have made a failure of our gov
ernment, and that all women are refined,
uplifted, educated angels who will reform
the government and turn the United
States into forest of Arden or a Utopia,
but / do say that there is something
wrong with the present system when,
building on our constitution, which prom
ses so much, the people of America can
be laboring under the burden of so much
suffering and want and ignorance and
crime
Some one has made mistakes and some
one has misappropriated the functions of
self government when there is a bread
line and when there are supplies of poi
soned food, when the milk supply is dead
ly. when children cannot get schooling,
when people starve to death, when men
and women commit suicide because life
Is so cheerless There is something wrong
Men have had the affairs of the nation In
their control now since 1776, and they have
not been able to work out the problem to
the satisfaction of any one, themselves
Included.
1 have no desire for suffrage for women
for the sake of casting a ballot but 1t is
what 1t stands for. 1t means that one
can have a voice in selecting the mer
who make and who enact the laws.

Wash Eggs For Market.

1t would in sense be better to
wash eggs sent to market than to
send them in dirty condition. But
washed eggs have no keeping quail
ties. The water appears to dissolve
the gelatinous substance which seals
the pores of the shell, and air is thus
admitted and soon starts decomposi-
tion. The better way to treat dirty
eggs is to take a woolen rag only
slightly moistened with water and
gently rub off the dirt.

An OriainaI Optimist.

A most unusual optimist was Sophocles
McCue.
"Cheer upr he'd often cry. 1.-THE sky

The sun is warm and bright, 1 know, but

Just think of all the gloomy days on
which It cannot shine.

TIE FERTILITY oE Eaea.

We read much about feeding for fer.

method of ration to charge an egg with
embryos.
Put that theory under hen, and she
will desert the nest.
Just use the old method and furnish
your hens with grit and shell, green
food, cut bone, fresh water, pure air
and good grain in deep litter for food
and blood circulator.
Add to this a lively, loud voiced,
strong lunged, broad backed, strong
legged, full breasted, busy male.
That's our plan to bring bright eyed
ruffie f1uffles, and our egg customers
will tell you it works. Yes, Wen let
you feed soft mash, too, even If the
goose bone prophets say you shouldn't.
To test their theory that mash
brings infertiles or weak chicks, we
fed pen on an equal three part

USEFUL THINGS TO KNOW.
HcmeIy Little Rules Of Great Value in
the Kitchen.

There are some homely little rules,
not distinctly new and original, but oh,
so useful! Wnen the boiling vegeta-
bic has caught. don't try to pry it out
Of the saucepan and take all the burnt
taste with it, but. rather, plunge the
Cu,sid2rof TIE saucepan into cold water
lew moments: and when you loosen
the vegetables carefully with a spoon
the hardened burnt portion will re-
main in the pan.
When tie small cakes in gem pans
seem inclined to stick to the pans. t:y
the same plan, only less strenuously
Hold the under sides Of these hot lit
tie pans against a wet tea towel, and
the cakes will loosen at once.
After greasing your cake tins with
lard and before pouring in the cake
batter dredge the bottom of the tins
with flour, shaking out all that does
not stick evenly to the lard. Cake
batter poured in on this dry flour will
rarely stick to the pan after it is
baked. Wet the inside of china or tin
molds with white of the egg before
pouring in gelatin. cranberry or blanc
mango, and the hardened dessert Will
not stick when you are ready TO dis
lodge it.
So many things have disappoint-
ing way Of sticking, and the house
keeper without long memory de-
spairs without these occasional re-
minders.
