For years the dream of the housewife
has been home in which all the domestic
work could be done by electricity. That
dream promises to be realized during the
present year. Electricity is now being
epplied to half a hundred uses in homes
and new ones are rapidly being added to
this list
The electric kitchen Of 1910 is a table
with a row of knobs at the back. These
knobs are for wire connection Each
utensils has a heater in the bottom. The
cook to set 1t going plugs the short
wire attached to the stew pan, or whatever
IT is, into a socket in the back of the
table, just like a telephone girl makes
a connection, and the pan heats up at once
A new electric range has just been de-
veloped in New York. This looks like an
ordinary range. 1t has pads on the top that
are heated red hot by electricity. The
cooking is done in ordinary utensils set on
the tops of these pads. The new electric
range has an oven, also what is known
as a quick oven, for pies and similar
things.
Besides it's use in washing, ironing and
cooking, for sweeping and for running the
sewing machine and the pianola, electricity
will be applied TO many other devices in
the electrical house Of 1910.
The electric razor IS one of the most
recent innovations 1t is built on the
principle of the lawn mower. 1t has several
blades that turn at the rate OF several
thousand revolutions per minute. You con-
meet it with an electric light globe socket
and NOV your face
The electric shaving mug is more IA
miliar. 1t heats the water in the mug
. ,,r{tI 10, tay
for a nice hot drink You can even make a
cup of hot chocolate in the shaving mug.
Electric toilet articles are numerous al,
ready, and OF course, the electrical house
OF 1910 is equipped with them. Electric
massage jiggers are well known. Almost
every barber shop has one. a similar looking
machine is now made for women. II con

why He Would Wear Robe.
Bishops of the Church of Rome have
robes which no lesser dignitary Of the
church may wear without committing
sacrilege. The story Is told of Bishop
O'Donaghue, who is shortly to remove from
Indianapolis to take charge of the Louis
Vile diocese, that he was visited one day
by negro preacher of a Protestant de-
nomination. 1t is characteristic of Bishop
O'Donaghue to see every one, and the

myself but l thought if you would loan
me one I'd have my wife to make one just

Reward Of Merit.

Some time ago Miss C. Yeager, book
keeper in a Penn street store, Reading,

stranger who made the request of her on

The other day Miss Yeager received at

was embarrassed on the streets of Read

Quaker Joe.
X. U, Whitted of Topeka relates in the
Kansas City Journal an interesting story
OF the ancestors Of Speaker Cannon.
Uncle Joe is Of Quaker stock" said
Whitted, "and although the Quakers do
not believe in war most of them have
fighting blood in their veins. l know a
little story on that subject about the
Cannons. 1t happened before / was born,
but is family story handed down. My
grandfather and DR.. Cannon, father Of
Speaker Cannon, were members of a little
band of Quakers that settled in Park
county, Indiana, along about 1925 moving
there from North Carolina. They founded
the little town of Bloomington. Speaker
Cannon was born there, my parents were
born there and l was also born there;
hence l know the story.
Along in the sos, by the death Of a
former member of the society in the south.
the society inherited $4,000 in money and
100 negroes. Quakers did not believe in
slavery and what to do with the negroes
was problem. 1t was finally decided to
free them and use the $4,000 in purchas-
ing for them homes in Indiana. Dr.
Cannon was selected to go to Alabama
where they We're and bring them. The
citizens of Park county were very indig.
nant over having that many negroes To-
Gated among them and were at the land
ing when the boat arrived. They notified
DIR. Cannon that he would not be permitted
TO land them. The old doctor was a very
determined man and he seized a muske
and gave the negroes instructions to marcl
ashore The doctor and the negroes wer,
permitted to land and the plans agreed
upon by the society were carried out.
Indiana had some very stringent law
at that time against freedmen-one re
quired that any person giving employment
to freedman should file a bond with tn
county insurng them against the freed
man employed ever becoming a count,
charge. DR.. Cannon was very bite
against such laws and openly violate,
them. At laBt he was arrested, tried, con
Victed and fined very heavily (about So OK
as l remember This was a very Iarg
sum of money in that community at tina
time and the Friend society offered t
pay II. Dr. Cannon would not permit ther
TO do so, however, and his entire propert
was sold at sherlff's sale to pay the fin

the boy repeated his remark: Don't worry,

This about convinced the mother. that her
son was getting a bit too fresh for so
small a child, and she made up her mind
to punish him. Just then she saw a friend
going home from church and she called
