WOMEN ARE IN
EARNEST
WILL MAKE HOUSE TO HOUSE
CAMPAIGN OF EDUCATION IN
SPOKANE FOR EQUAL SUI.
ERAGE CAUSE.

A house to house campaign of
education in behalf of the right OF
suffrage for women was resolved
upon at the meeting of the Spo-
kane Equal Suffrage league last
night. Three parlor meetings and
one general meeting will be held
each month-one every week.
Mrs. May Arkwright Hutton,
PRESIDENT of the league, reported on
the success of the women's lobby
for equal suffrage at Olympia in
securing the submission of con-
stitutional amendment for that
purpose. She said that it was
found necessary to first convert
the wives of the legislators and
the rest was easy. The success of
woman uffrage in Washington de-
pended on the women themselves,
she said, as the men will grant it
II they think the women demand
the ballot.
Mrs. w. M. Wilson, E311S
Sprague avenue, denounced the ac-
ton of the legislators who defeated
the eight hour day for women. Mrs.
Wilson said that it was her mis-
fortune that she was compelled to
work in one of the laundries for
living and witnessed the spectacle
of her employer going to Olympia
to lobby against the eight hour
bill. If women voted she said men
would be compelled to earn the
living and the women who now
work could then devote some of
. their time to their families.
Mrs. Lydia Irons, 02023 Wash
ington street, told of the injustices
In property matters which women
rest under in some states. She
said she had worked in the suffrag-
list movement in Idaho and Oregon
and urged the formation of pre-
cinct organizations for the suffrag-
list campaign of 1910.
Other speakers were Mrs. Eliza
beth Godding, d. c. Coates of the
Labor World and Mrs. Hand, who
spoke of an encounter with an in
quisitive man assessor. 1t was de-
cided to cable the good wishes of
the club to Mrs. Baker of Spokane,
who has gone to London to repre-
sent the state of Washington in
the international suffragist conven-
ton in April.
Officers elected were: Presi-
dent, May Arkwright Hutton; vice
presidents, Lorene Baker, Mrs. w.
M. Wilson, Elizabeth Gibson; sec
rotary, Sadie Coates; treasurer,
Nellie Colbert.

TRADING TODAY
ON CURB

There was no session of the ex.
change today on account of the flu
neral of Governor Cosgrove. Trad
ing, however, was quite active on
the curb and Snowstorm was
stronger, sales being made up to
$1.74. Snowshoe and Lucky Calu-
met also came in for their share of
business, prices remaining about
the same. Ambergris is showing
decided improvement and the buy
ing is from a good quarter. Hum
ming Bird looks like it would move
up a point or two. Insiders have
been absorbing Humming Bird for
two years and the floating supply is
getting very scarce.

THINGS WORTH NoWIN

Grass stains may be removed by
saturating in p~araffin before washing.
To remove paint from linens rub the
cloth with ~turpentine, then clean with
French chalk dampened with alcohol.
Table linen should be dampened
thoroughly and ironed until dry. 1t
will then have enough gloss and stiff
ness to suit the most fastidious.
Furniture polish-two lin
seed oil, two ounces alcohol. four
drops a~niline, four drops wintergreen.
Put on and rub with a lannel cloth.
To take mildew from linen rub the
spot with soap; scrapc chalk over it
and rub it well; lay 1t on the grass in
the sun; as it dries wet 1t a little. 1t
will come out with two applications.
To clean furniture. if rough, rub It
with powdered pumice. If simply
dirty, rub with diluted vinegar. which
will cut grease and remove dirt. Then
polish with some good furniture polish.
Violets after they have been worn
will come out fresh and almost as
good as new by clipping the stems
without cutting the bouquet apart and
putting the flowers into a deep glass of
water, covering the heads with waxed
paper and setting them In the refrig-
orator.
Muslin dresses of delicate colors
should not be washed with soap. The
best fluid to wash them in is rice wa
ter. made by boiling one pound of rice
in one gallon of water. Reserve a
quart of the water for starching; then
wash the dress in the remainder.
Rinse in clear or slightly blued water;

TREE DWELLING ANTS.
South American insect That Acts as
Plant Guardian.


Ant defenders of plants and trees
are some of natures pretty marvels.
The Cecropia adenopus is a remarka-
BILE tree of south Brazil, widely dis
tributed through the tropics. Its slen-
der trunk is crowned with long leaves
at the ends of the branches.
A few active ants run continually
along the branches and the leaves, but
If the tree is shaken slightly an army
Of ants rushes out by small apertures
ready for a savage assault on the In
truder. The ant is the terrible guatd-
ian that the tree has retained to pio-
tect it fro1n its most formidable enc
my, the leaf cutter ant.
The defenders rarely leave their re-
treat, where they live on small whitish
egg shaped bodies about one-twefth
of an inch long. known as Nuclei
corpuscles. These are formed of drli-
cate tissue, rich in proteids and all. Il
rations for the garrison of defender
ants to feed upon. The curious lr-
rangement by which entrance is mace
to the hollow stem has been studied by
w. Schiml'er.
Just above the point of insertion Of
each leaf extends nearly to the supe-
rlor node q superficial groove. at whose
end is a rounded depression. Thrre
the tissue is thin. like a diaphragm in
a tube, ana it also is soft. The hole
by which the ant enters Is always
pierced at this spot. The ants Sem
to have made their entrance through
the groove originally because it Vas

lection augmented these natural ad-
vantages, SO that finally the thin. fraiI
