Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: I noticed in Saturdays Bulletin that Nat has called for an apple pie recipe without apples. I take pleasure in sending my recipe for one. It will help out his Christmas dinner, perhaps as 1t will be too late for Thanksgfving. What do you want next, Nat?

AUNT JULIE ON VARIOUS MATTERS

Dear Editor and Sisters: The Corner is steadily improving, and l enjoy it.
 Nat: Your stories are good-you de- served the $2.50 prize. Why don't you open your heart now and get Jane Ann ar extra wing for her hat? Poor Jane! l am sure she is worthy of it.
 1 wish I could write a story, but guess I am passei
 It is amusing to walk by the polls on election day and see the different groups of men hanging around the polls. some with hands thrust in their pockets, others holding up a building with one shoulder, waiting for the man who carries the temptation around in hls pocket; and when he gets his man to a point where he had as soon vote Tor black horse as a white one, pro- viding he gets that extra dollar and I'd venture to bet a cooky that it is more often 50 cents than a dollar, and this Is what we are supposed to call principle and honor in men
 Give me the man or woman who put principle above all other things-then you have the real thing.
 We have today the best set of men on our police force that we ever had They are thorough and can be trusted with the protection of our city They have at their head a live man. one who gets right down to business and works with his men, and while we sleep those men can be trusted to look out for thesWeIfare of the city
 Hope you all had a nice Thanksgiv- ing and enjoyed the barrel burning.

A REPLY TO AUNT JULIE.

Editor of the Social Corner: I thank the editor for the old songs; l do en- joy them so much.
 '.The Gypsy's Warning" I heard sung in 1866 on the prairies of Illinois, just out of Salem; and Sweet Marie" I heard the band play going on the boat to Mt. vernon in 1893; and "MOllie. Darling" was played at a wedding as the bridal party left the church-the brides name was Mollie
 Answer to Aunt Jule: Every wo- man can be trusted with a vote just as well as every man: and there will be no more bad women vote than bad men. Women and men must stand together for the good of their country the same aS for their home
 c. Elweli Nash Was asked to speak before the woman sufrragists at His torical hall, Brooklyn, V. Y., on the subject, Why Am a Suffragist." He had many of his people to hear him. He began, T have seven reasons .'' First, he had a good mother: to her he owed all that was good in him; second, he had an excellent wife. Looking over the audience, he said: Many of you know if that is true. Mrs. Nash was the best minister's wife l ever knew; and now I have five more reasons, and you want to know what they are, I see by your looks. have five daughters, who I want to vote. Dr. Nash has for some years lived in Los Angeles, so now he has his wish, his daughters can vote.
 Women are coming to their own. Nothing will make a woman unworn- = anly only her own conduct
 If Aunt Jule would like, I might send her the Woman's Journal through the editor. I think she would like to read If.

ORIGINAL SOCIAL CORNER STORY
A SOUL SATISFYING VISION
A TRUE STORY

It was on beautiful night in Sep seemed to be shining more brightly than usual After a day of unusual care and worry. I went out upon the lawn and gazed heayenward, thinking to myself that if life was full of care and strife, God had sent me a ray of light to be able to behold and enjoy his perfect handiwOrk. After thinking of His goodness and mercy. I went in to the house and reired; and after a season of wakefulness fell to sleep and was blessed with the vision of which l will tell the Social Corner sisters.
 I heard the clock strike 12, and seem ed to be so restless that I could not seem to get to sleep; but I sent out the thought that I was well and made perfect and must go to sleep. After a few thoughts of this kind felt my self lifted up by unseen hands, so to speak, and was carried forth out of an open window, when I drifted up ward alone, touching nothing and feel ing nothing and seeing nothing The horror of my position I cannot ex- press; but in the agony of my soul I cried aloud:
 "Oh. God, was ever any one in such a place before?'
 I then heard a gentle voice say:
 Yea, my daughter, St. John on the Isle of Patmos-
 heart I drifted awhile longer, then heard the same gentle voice say:
 "Once again behold the face of the ever living God"
 I tried to open my eyes, but found I could not, because of the brightness

Editor Social Corner: Woman was created for a companion, helpmate. i She was created different from man more sensitive more delicate and re- 1 fined, or fner-something for a man to love and take pride in-an ideal The minute you put a woman on the level with man they lose this charm and identity and become at once an- tagOnistic. It is impossible for the two distinct natures to see each the other s view of things. l contend it IS inn possible.
 There are exceptions to all rules, and no doubt in some cases women in poll tics would greatly benefit conditions; but 1 believe it would not be so in the majority of cases Women are too de- termined, and consequently if a WOE1- ans mind is once centered upon a re- suit there will be no let up or peace until the desired end be accomplished This works both ways, for good or for harm. A good WOman-l mean a con scientious, Christian woman-would be a potent factor in eliminating evil from @ community, while a bad woman who is worse than a bad man-would degrade and disgrace her sex, and 1T you grant the franchise to the good woman you must give the bad woman an equal right
 God made man and then woman T will make him an helpmeet for him. Gen. ii. IS. About the first thing woman did was to contend she knew more than God, and told Adam if he ate the forbidden fruit ''ye shall not surely die" Gen. ii 4. You see. man didn't want to get into any heated ar gUment with his "helpmeet" so after seeing the 'helpmeet'' eat of the for bidden fruit he tasted. The results were disastrous to both

SUGGESTIONS FROM PINK ROSE

Dear Sisters of tte Social Corner: I do agree that we have had enough of recipes, and think something else would be liked by all.
 Why not some one who does dress making give us a little talk on that subject? Timely hints on how to dye old clothes might not come amiss-
 Aunty of Willimantic: Could I send you a card in care of OUT Social Cor ner? Where are our sisters who used to write?
 Grandma: Don't you hear your chil- CornfIower. OTly One. Blue Bell. B. r. A., aren't you coming back? There is room for all. I think.
 If any sister cares for embroidery patterns to stamp on paper to work on shrtwaists, I have quite a lot kindly tell me now to reach her.
 This requesting each scholar to give a Christmas present to each other i1 school because they are to have tree is not right. Is 1t Christmas spirit to give becaUse you feel you ought to? Sisters, please tell what you all think.
 I will tell few ways to save work
 When ! clean windows I use old newspapers instead of cloth. It's bet ter and saves work and cloth, and ouch lirt. Put little soapsuds to yo1r starch. Your clothes will iron
 Here is an idea I got from my moth er-in-iaw: Put your tiny pieces of soap into a can with a few holes in the bottom and sozzIe up . nd down in vour dish water: will make all the suds needed.

would not approve of their corrupt practices Now, in making this state ment, l do not mean ali the men are corruptible There are honest men well as honest women; and 1t takes all kinds to fill the world. have heard good, honest men stand up for woman suffrage and say woman had right to voice in public affairs.
 Women are a great deal more intel hgent than some of the men who can only make CX) against their rames. It makes no difference to them who they vote for as long as they are ing and right living will bring us bet ter laws The boys and girls of today are the men and women of tomorrow. And years alone will only tell whether women shall have a voice or be kept down as they were a. hundred years ago.
 If the Am erican woman is compe- tent to Tear and manage a large or small family, have the responsibility and share the burdens-to help her husband in his many business cares, she must be both mentally and phys ically able to form an opinion of her own. She has the capacity; and many & woman of today has the will and the brain. and the confidence in her own power to win over mans opposi- ton. Of course, we cannot always of opinion in this matter. as in all others; and this is mine. l don't ex- pect others to agree with me; and shall he glad to hear others on this same question: Here is a problem for someone. So let the sisters all sit in council and answer this perplexipg question American women are not like the women of Persia, whom the men think possess no minds or souls not even a spark of intellect Wish we had some of those men over here in our Corner. They would soon find out whether we women have intellect or not Now Aunt Jule, you have my opinion of woman suffrage. It may not be like yours; but the more the difference the merrier the discussion.
