SULLEN SALLIE.

She is one of a class of women.
She is a dressmaker and sews nearly
every day. We call her fortunate,
for she is Independent and always
has coin in her purse, which gives
forth a cheerful Jingle. Her husband
earns a moderate income, SO they
have enough for their needs and some
luXuries
Their home is in a pretty village
on a shaded street. Sallie is not Jol-
ly William Henry brings her home
pretty dresses and she has the ability
to earn the means to buy more. 1t is
her habit to grumble and say: What
is the use to make nice clothes; we've
no place to wear them" 1t does not
occur to her to help make good times
for others.
She seldom offers hospitality and
receives none. 1t is her way to go
slouching around all day in her loose
wrapper, and she is too Indifferent
to dress for afternoons. If such COM
planning women were more social and
would be willing to give cheerful al
ternoon receptions and teas, good
deal of happiness would radiate from
these cottages on shaded streets. Such
women are wont to say: "Gh, it's
so much bother" 1t is pleasant to
be hospitable, and refreshments are
not much work.
The village and country life is
charmed one if women were not fussy
like Bible Martha.
I entertained our Aid Society last
winter, and my lunch delighted them,
for it was different from what others
had served. 1t was January and we
sat around the stove and slipped cot
fee and ate sugar cookies and ice
cream. No, it was not a bother
Master Blossom brought the cookies.
Lad number two made the ice cream
and soon number one acted as hostler

china.-Dolly Goodwill, in the In

HonoluIu's Fete Day.

Honolulu has already begun pre-
pairing for the great annual floral
parade which for number Of years
has been a Distinguishing feature of
the celebration of Washington
Birthday in the islands. In the last
few years the event has attracted
more than local attention, a large
number of tourists from the main
land and from Europe having timed
their visit to the Territory to coincide
with that date. The celebration is in
the nature Of a fete, or festival, or
which the most conspicuous feature
is the great parade of automobiles
and decorated vehicles which takes
place during the afternoon.
Hawaii's flowers are luXuriant
during February, and as a conse-
quence the floral decorations on the
cars are always most magnificent.
AS a result Of the interest taken in
this event, Washington Birthday is
celebrated in Hawaii probably more
deliberately than in any other part of
the United States, and the day has
come to be considered the most inn
portant holiday of the year in the
Territory.

91.9 per cent. OF them women. Ihese
four occupations were the only occu-
pations in which women constitute
over nine-tenths of all persons en-
ployed.
Almost nine-tenths of the women
milliners are native whites. In the
large cities more than half the milll-'
ners were under twenty-five years OF
age. Probably when they exceed
that age they marry, and if they re-
main in business it is done in the
husbands name and the census cred
its him with being a merchant. In
1890 there was one milliner to every
1928 women fifteen years of age and
over. In 1900 one to every 2S5.
This change is thought to reflect
the advance in the prosperity OF the
country, since millinery to a certain
extent is a luxury, and in family bud
gets forms an item that probably re-
sponds quickly to fluctuations in In
come. If the manual training schools
and technical institutions continue to
run out milliners in the next ten
wears as they have in the last decade
there will be one milliner to every
hundred women, and in the not far
distant future.

PRESERVED GINGER.

Scrape the roots of green ginger
and lay in cold water twenty minutes.
Cook in three waters, changing from
the hot to cold each time. When
very tender drain and lay in ice
water. For the strip allow pound
and a quarter of sugar for every
pound of ginger root and a cupful of
water to each pound of sugar. Bring
to boil, skim and continue boiling
and skimming until no more scum
rises. Wipe the ginger dry and drop
in the strip that has been cooled.
Leave twenty-four hours; drain and
again heat the strip. While still
blood warm return the ginger and let
it stand forty-eight hours. Again
drain, heat scalding hot and pour
over the root at once. In a week
once more boil the sirup and pour
again, scalding hot, over the root and
cover closely. Ready for use in a

WOMEN WRITERS WAR ON SUI
FRAGE.

hAdE.
Mrs. Humphry Ward has not rested
meekly under the rebuke of Mrs.
Julia Ward Howe, who retorted Wig
orously to the assertion of the Eng
lish woman that equal suffrage in the
Western States has been a failure.
Mrs. Ward formed her opinion on a
rowing visit to this country few
months ago, and aired them on her
return to England. Mrs. Howe re-
piled through the London Times. The
novelist now asserts that in a Con-
gress election in Denver few years
ago women were as active in frauds
as men. Mrs. Ward has all the odds
against her. Mrs. Howe has called
the District Attorney of Denver as q
witness, and he says that out Of sew
enty-eight persons involved in the
frauds Of which Mrs. Ward complains,
seventy-siz were men and two were
women. To make the case still
stronger for Mrs Howe and the
American sUffra gist il general, Judge
Lindsey, of Denver, gives 1t as his
experience that ninety-nine per cent.
of the election frauds in Colorado are
the work of men unassisted by wom-
en-. This evidence seems to clinch
the case for Mrs. Howe, and it IS nat
ural that the champions of woman's
rights in England have seized upon
the controversy as a weapon against
Mrs Ward, who has worked vigor-
ouSlv to keen women ont of the DOliti-
cal arena.-New York Press.

PEPPERS AS SALAD.

In the last few years peppers are
growing in favor both as vegetable
and salads. For the latter it is ex-
cellent chopped up to give a flavor
ing to tomatoes, and mixed in with
fresh cabbage, served with French
dressing.
For more elaborate effects use the
green peppers whole, stuffed with
chopped sweetbreads, and serve on
hearts of lettuce.
Wash and cut off the tops of the
peppers, carefully remove the seeds
and set on the ice to chill.
Boil the sweetbreads and season
them when still hot with salt, pepper
and plenty of butter. If a small
piece of onion is put in the water in
which they are boiled, the fiat taste
to which many persons object in u.s.
ing sweetbreads as salad, is removed.
When cold cut in dice about half
inch square, and mix thoroughly
with a highly seasoned mayonnaise.
Fill the peppers with the sweet
breads and put a teaspoonful of may
onnaise on top of each one.-New
York Press.

THE Use OF PERFUMES

So many women ask what is that
indescribably dainty odor which 9TH
ers of their sex shed around them
nowadays. It's not a positive per-
fume, only just the mos refined
sweetness imaginable. 1t is violet,
simply violet, but violet in every
thing, perfume, sachets, perfumed
fannels for lacking in dress Innings,
tooth wash, hair tonics, bath tablets,
everything.
This is the recipe given by chem
list for the woman who would be not
only as fair as the rose, but radiate
an odor equally as sweet. And in
spite of the fad for stronger and more
powerful perfumes, it is asserted that
women Of refinement still use nothing
but violet.
But perfume alone won't yield this
delightful but evanescent fragrance.
A woman must take violet for her hy-
genie text and live up to it faithfully
if she would be able to create that

Sixty Million Eggs in a Season.

Lizards That Leap.

The gila monster, the largest lizard
Of America, is found in the sand
deserts of Mexico and the southern
part of the United States. 1t belongs
to the only species of venomous lizard
known.
The Indians and Mexicans dread
this little hard-biting reptile, whose
bite is, however, seldom fatal to man.
When frightened or angry its
movements are very rapid. Some
men who had caught one of these
monsters tied it up with a string and
commenced teasing it. Presently the
creature became furious. The spec
tators knew nothing about its ability
to spring until it suddenly leaped
fully two feet Off the ground and bit
a mans hand.

N. Y.
Who against hope believed in hope.
Romans 4:18.
The most wretched Of his species is
the man without hope. He is more
than wretched, he Is ineXcusably
criminal, because an offender against
a divine law which the apostle enl-
phasized in his mastery appeal to
the Romans.
To hope and to hope always is COM
mand so stringent that against hope
we must believe in hope. The words
of St. Paul suggest picture IN when
hope is portrayed supine and gasplng:
while ministering faith bends over II
and arouses it into life and strength
and commanding beauty. A miracle
truly this, but within the power OF
religion and attested by reason and
experience.
That such marvel may be per-
formed-nay, that it is not beyond
the reach of any souls solace IN
speakable. 1t means that any one
may bar forever against himself the
gates of despair. It is a trumpet call
for highest courage and achievement,
It implies a command which IT I'm.
uttered by the Creator would pass by
unheeded. But God wills it, there
fore it can be obeyed. Though II
calls for a fight of hope against itself,
it is not a contradiction nor para
dox, but carried to its ultimate conse
uuences it means triumph, it is uni
versal in it's application, bars no man
from it's sway and eliminates no com
bination of circumstances. 1t enJolns
upon one absolute refusal to surren'
der save to the inevitable doom OF us
all.
Moreover, it finds response in
mans | art. Never say die!" is
cry as old as the race. All the myth
oloeies reflect it. Christianity con.
socrates it. The Old World felt its
truth; to the New it was given tc
understand it. On sea and land, on
every battle field since the dawn oil
history, has it been heard.
There has never been a mandate
to despair. No matter what the en-
vironment, how dark the outlook,
over and above all is the inspiration
of hope. What mans voice prevails
against the utterance of faith? When
a man says there is no hope, where 1s
his guarantee? The physician says:
"The man will die with the dawn
the man lives yet. A man is in the
clutches of adversely; he has lost his
all: loi on the fragments of his for.
tune he builds colossal independ'
ence.
History has not chronic1ed every
hopeful deed. Ships a-many de-
SPARED of have come to port; from
many "last bitches" have been I'M
furIed flags of victory.
The hope that Paul speaks of is not
supine but active. 1t puts heart in
man as nothing else does. 1t is the
mother of resurrection. God the au-
thor and f1nisher of hope be praised!
For from Him comes the confidence
which says: There Is way out; If
I cannot find it l will make it."
This hope, heaven descended, ap-
proved by reason and sanctioned by
experience, cannot be bafded. To
hope against hope is the basis of char
acter The truest test of man is to
hope against hope and to pluck sue
cess out of the very heart of failure.

TO MAKE WOMEN JEALOUS.

Insane women, says DR.. Britton ID.
Evans, are extremely jealous of gor-
geously or richly attired visitors, and
it frequently requires the interVen-
ton of their nurses to prevent an at
tack upon them. When not allowed
to give vent to their feelings by per-
sonal violence they are vehement in
their denunciations of ladies who pre-
sumo to wear fine gowns and jewels
in their presence.
1t has been claimed that women
during their mental arrangement
thus give expression to feelings they
entertained but subdued during men
tai soundness, and some persons have
gone SO far as to contend that this
sentiment obtains with great force in
the bosoms of women in general, but
when mental poise is lost, the power
of control is gone, and the will pow
e. is weakened by mental disease,
they give ready vent to the feelings
they have nurtured through life.

APPLE RICE PUDDING RECIPE.

For this simmer some rice in milk
until very tender. Meanwhile peel,
core and slice thinly two pounds of
apples. Then stew them in a little
water, with brown sugar to taste and
little strained lemon juice, until
very tender. When they are suftl-
GENTLY done mash them up finely with
a silver fork. BY this time the rice
should have absorbed all the milk.
Grease a pie dish very slightly, Whisk
up the rice and apples together. Fill
the dish with the mixture. Beat up
an egg with rather less than half a
pint of milk, sWeeten slightly, pour
over the rice and apples and cook in
