was trying to do scientific cooking 10
keep his digestion in tune.
While Newton was discovering the
law of gravitation by watching an
apple drop from the tree, Mrs Newton
was trying to decide how many apples
she should put in the philosophers pie.
While Watt was watching the steam
pouring from the tea kettle and think
ing of applying this power to machin-
cry, Mrs. Watt was hustling around
trying to get the potatoes in before the
water boiled away. Think how much
eneius has been drowned in the fam
lily dinner pot
Ever since Eve, in a Needless mo-
ment OF generosity, gave Adam a
MUNICH at the apple, man has been
! looking to woman to supply his meals.
/ So in assuming her vocation woman
has accepted no light task She must
be a home-maker and attend the ply
steal wants of her family. She must
be a social factor in her community
and afford amusement for her children.
She must keep up with the trend or
affairs and use her utmost influence
to see that the conditions under
which she raises her children, tend to
his mental or moral purity.
We see all these things in the var
ious department of the w. c. T. Y.
1t is a mistaken chiyalry to allow
for woman a share in the solution of
only the pleasant problems of life.
Such philosophy will end as sadly
as the conversational efforts of a young
man and woman who married not
long since. On their wedding day they
promised each other that they would
never discuss any subject upon which
they could not agree. They stuck 10
the promise. They have been married
a year now and the only topic they
have left for conversation is eggs
both of them like theirs softboiled.
The temperance cause finds n cham
pion in the w. C. T. U. The great
curse of whiskey which mas directly or
indirectly influenced the lives of the
great majority of men and women in
America has an unconquerable foe in
these women.
So. in behalf OF the press of the city.

timists believe that in Ardmore there
