outrage Header of Washington

The attempt recently made in
Washington state by Mrs. Emma
Smith De Voc to organize a wo-
mans party met with such unqual-
lifted disapproval of the suffragists
that the project, as originally plan
ned, has been abandoned, and an
organization, National Council of
Women Voters Tin reality cor
poration formed by three women
who elected Mrs. DeVoe president)
has been substituted.
So uhequivocal was the condem-
nation of any plan to build up a
political machine to exploit the
woman vote, the so called ma
tional' Council of Women Voters
has been publicly repudiated by
every suffrage organization in the
state, and our best friends and
strongest supporters in the recent
campaign-the State Federation
of Labor-strongly CONDEMNED it in
resolution unanimously adopted
by 800 delegates.
The idea of a woman's party
with it's unnatural competition and

PINK RIBBON IN
HIS NIGHT SHIRT
MAKES HIM MAD

Rabbi Leonard Levy of Pitts
burg, in his famous lecture, "The
Wandering Jew" tells joke as an
of the divorce habit.
Here is the joke:
Judge, want divorce from
my wife,"
"Well, upon what grounds do
you seek a divorce:" questioned
the judge.
"To begin with, Judge, my wife
ran away with a suffraget"
81 do not consider that sufficient
grounds for a divorce" the Judge
broke in.
"Well, judge, I don't mind get
ting up making the fires, cooking
Breakfast and sweeping the floors,
but when 1t comes to putting pink
ribbon in my nightshirt to fool the
baby, that's where things don't 60,

Flat-footed people are usually
good-natured. Flat-footed girls
have a sympathetic, kindly ma.

arched foot is apt to be selfish.
The vacillating person who
changes his mind a dozen times a

times he walks at q furious rate

to a saunter. This is the man
without stamina, who works by

WASHINGTON, d. c., Mar. LIS.
"A policy of "heckling" has been
decided upon by republican lead
ers as the house minority attitude
towards Speaker Champ Clark and
the democrats in the coming extra
session.
The rules of the house are full
of pitfalls for the unwary. "Un-
Gle Joe" Cannon, as speaker, had
to trust himself to Asher G. Kinds
at least three or four times day
for parliamentary rulings.
There are two parliamentary
experts on the democratic side
Fitzgerald of New York and Sher-
ley of Kentucky-and many 9th
er good rules men. Among the
republicans there are Kinds, the
greatest living authority on the
house rules; "Jim" Mann of IL
linois, Marlin Olmsted OF Penn
sylvania, John Dalzell of Pennsyl
vania, Serene e. Payne of New
York and Cannon himself.

OF our success was due to their eff
forts. The motive which animated
them was that which controls ev-
cry true suffrage-the uplifting
and betterment of humanity.
Every real suffragist realizes
the formation of a party or ma
chine of women voters would be
the greatest menace to the cause
OF universal woman suffrage that
could possibly be inaugurated.
Such an organization would not
only arouse the deepest natural
resentment among men. but an
even greater opposition among
women to the cause of women suf-
frage.

Meat Croquettes: Take cold
roast beef, veal or turkey, and
mince very fine. Moisten with
cold gravy or little water, add
1 egg, well beaten, season with
pepper and salt also little onion
and sage. Make this into rolls,
dip in beaten egg and then roll in
cracker crumbs. Let the cro-
puettes stand for half an hour be-
fore frying, in order to dry the
egg and crumbs. Be sure to have
the fat very hot in the pan before
dropping in the croquetes. A de-
1icious addition is a little cooked
rice which is often added in the
proportion of about Ia of the
quantity.
Nut Chowder: Take IL pound
of mixed nut meats broken into
small pieces. Put in a saucepan
and simmer for an hour and so
minutes. Peel and dice several
potatoes, a turnip, and good
sized onion. Have a pint of
canned or stewed tomatoes. Line
the bottom of a kettle with lay
er of potatoes and a layer of the
turnip and onion with a sprinkling
of thyme, sweet marjoram, chop
ped parsley and salt, then layer
of tomatoes and lastly the nut
meats. Let simmer 80 minutes,
then add / pint of milk and a
little thickening.

When it is necessary to make
several cakes at once, save your
self the tiresome beating of the
batter by putting the required
ingredients in their usual order
into a small ice cream freezer. A
few minutes of turning the crank
results in fine, smooth batter ne.
cessary for successful cake.

wringer. 1t makes wrinkles that
are hard to iron out. Starched
clothes are easier to iron II
sprinkled with hot water half an
hour before ironing.
For the cheese lover a simple
and palatable dessert is made
from any good cream cheese.
Work and mold the cheese into
round, flat patties, putting a patty
in the center of each dessert plate.
Scoop out the middle, and in lieu
of the bar lie due, which is expen-
sive and not always obtainable,
put in each patty a spoonful of
preserved red currants. Serve
with crisp sailed waters and cor-
fee.
If your pies overflow in the ov-
en- insert a short piece of un-
cooked macaroni in the top crust.
This is better than the paper fun
mel.
For darning stockings use cro-
Chef cotton. 1t is preferable to
darning cotton, as 1t does not
harden when washed.
