Mrs. Aria (Small) Holt, widow

Mrs. Holt was devout attendant
Of the Universalist church until
feeble health prevented her from

1t may be truly said of her she
lived a long and useful life; the

ABBOTT LIBRARY NOTES.
Our townspeople would do well to
take time to visit the library for the
express purpose of looking over the
exhibits just sent in by the different
schools.
This work was done during the
spring term, and reflects much
credit on the pupils, teachers and
superintendent.
The absolute spirit of apathy
shown by many parents, with refer
ence to the moral and intellectual
training eff their children, is some
thing that needs to be vigorously
fought against. If people see fit to
bring children into the world, let
them see fit to take upon themselves
the burden of looking after them,
after they are here, and not slide
the whole responsibility. on to the
shoulders of the general public.
A parents duty in these matters
cannot cease, until child has ar
rived at sufficient maturity to take
upon himself the management of his
own affairs.
Previous summers we have dedi-
Gated portion Of our lawn to the
potted plants that we had with us
during the winter. This summer
we are raising petunias by the
thousands-no two alike-and the
lawn promises to develope into a
brilliant wave of summer bloom.

Does 1t Pay to sucker Corn!

On rich land. during favorable
moisture conditions, if the corn is
planted too thin. there is decided
tendency in some varieties to pro-
duce these suckers or branches from

There is some difference OF opinion
as to whether 1t pays to remove these
suckers or allow them to grow. If
weather conditions could be forctold
and it could be known that later i'm
the season the stalks already on the
ground would not have more than
barely sufficient moisture and plant

these suckers. On the other hand.

Greenville, Sept 26-That consid-
cradle over three millions of spindles

their output for at least one week in
October was indicated at meeting
of the executive committee of the Cot

Captain T.. a. Smyth, president OF the
association.
There are 100000 spindcs repre-
sented In the membership of the as
sociation and of these over 100000
were represented at the meeting today.
Those present stated their intcn-
tion of shutting down their mills for
at least one week i'm October ON uc-
count of the fact that prices for their
products are now below the cost of
production.
A letter has been sent ont to the
other members of the association in
forming them of the action of the exc
cutive committee and it appears most
likely that nearly all the Spindlcs in
the association will curtail their pro
duction during one week I'm October.

BUTTER ROLLS

Have you ever eaten in one of
Kohlsaat's cafes in Chicago? II
you have, you are probably ac-
quainted with butter rolls.
The Kohlsaat people of Chicago
have won q great reputation for
their string of high class cafes,
largely from the delicious rolls
which they serve.
Our butter rolls are far ahead of
Kohlsaats. We bake them in a
pan which has been thickly spread
with pure butter and sugar. When
they are nicely Drowned, they are
taken from the oven and turned
upside down. The bottom then
becomes the top and the butter
and sugar is baked right into the
roll. The dough is seasoned with
nutmeg and mace. You never tast-
ed finer roll. They are ten cents
dozen.

KANSAS DIVORCE LAW.
Judge True's Decision May Cause Di-
vOrcc Mecca in Kansas.

Kansas City, Mo-, May 3.-Kansas
may become divorce Mecca if a de-
cision by Judge True of the Wyan-
dotte county district court is upheld.
Judge True decided yesterday that
persons not living in the state could
maintain divorce actions there ii the
party against whom the action is
brought can be served in the state.
A section of the law amended by
the legislature last winter now reads
that suit may be maintained if the
person sued is a resident or may be
summoned" The last three words
have caused considerable discussion
some attorneys holding that service
may be obtained on nonresident
passing through the state.
The ruling yesterday was made on
motion to dismiss action for ALI
mony by Mrs. Margaret E. Randolph
OF Covington, Ind, against H. G. Ran
dolph. He lives in this city, but has
an office in Kansas. Service was OBJ
tanned in Kansas The motion to dis
miss was made on the grounds that
the action could not be maintained,
as neither was a resident of the state
Judge True held that the service
had been obtained in Kansas the ac-
ton could be maintained under the
new law.
The following is the section of the
law as amended: IAN action for di-
vorce is to aRnui a contract of mar
riage or for alimony. 1t may be
brought in the county in which the
plaintiff is an actual resident at the
time of the filing OF the petition, or
where the defendant resides or may
be summoned.
1T is a bad law Judge True said
last night, hut it is SO plain that it
can have only one meaning. Nonres-
idents can be divorced in Kansas if
personal service is secured on the
party sued in that STATE"
Gould man and woman come
from New York and she sue for di-
vorce If he remained IN Kansas long
enough to be served ?" the judge was
asked.
"Such a divorce would be legal if
he was served personally in Kansas

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Women shouldn't have the suf-
frage because they age so much more
rapidly than men that at forty-fiVe
they are too decrepit mentally to be
capable OF voting, is the latest anti
suffrage argument
As an anti-suffrage argument, L
don't think it's worth trying to dis
prove.
AS a reminder that one class of wo-
men at forty-five are older than men
at the same age. and much older than
they need to be, it is an all too true
statement
And if you want TO know what class
l mean, just look around among the
women you know and tell me il the
business and professional women OF
your acquaintancc-the nurse, the
stenographer. the schOolmarm the
matter how hard thev may have to
work. aren't younger at forty-fiVe and
fifty-five than the women who have
been twenty or thirty years married
Now, 1 am not going TO ask you to
draw the conclusion that it would be
better for women to remain in the in
dustrial world after marriage.
I think that is a very many-Sided
question. and one upon which the so
Cial conditions of the future will have
. big bearing.
I am not one of those radicals who
say: Every woman should have a
Vocation
But I do think every woman should
have an avocation-an absorbing in
terest outside her home.
y great specialist said recently that
2 majority of the cases of nervous
prostration and insanity among women
are due simply and solely to the dead
T. mOnotony of household routine
It is not that the women have
worked too hard, he says, half so
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1910-05-03

much as that their work has been too
mOnotonous.
No woman ought to allow herself
10 be without some very definite in
terest outside her home-music, writ
ing, some line OF study, some branch
of settlement work, some definite and
absorbing responsibility of church
work, or work in some big cause.
1t does not matter so much what
the interest is, so that it be something
sufficiently absorbing to keep her
mind thoroughly Occupied while she is
doing the dishes and beds and the
busting, and the million and one little
routine things that do not need her
entire attention.
1t seems to me that it is an active
mind more than anything else that
keeps people young.
A man is as old as he feels and a
woman as old as she looks, they say,
but it seems to me that they are both
as young as they think.
And the women who are too closely
shut up in the routine of a home get
old so much more rapidly than their
sisters in the world outside because
they don't have enough to think about
and their minds get sluggish.
OF course, a wOman's duty to her
home is first. but l think she will ac-
quit herself of that duty better if she
also performs some duty to her in
dividual self and to the world outside
