AS a rule, a woman does not shake

your father makes the introduction and

THE MENU RECIPES.

1t is not needful that the most ex-
pensive meat be bought. A shank or
other meat bones, the carcass of a
roast turkey or chicken or the trim
mings from roasts and steaks are all
excellent to prepare stock from.
Put these in the pot and cover with
cold water, add a handful of salt and
boil gently for several hours. Vese-
tables should not be added until the
stock is fully prepared. as long cook
ing will cause them to loose their
5avor.
Take off the scum which rises from
time to time and add more water as
the stock boils away. When ready to
make the soup the stock may be dilut-
ed if it be too strong. and If there be
any left it may be put aside in a stone
or earthen jar and Will keep several
days in a coof place.

Walnuts With Port.
From the Lancet.

Walnuts are seldom discussed without
reference to port, but the association is
physiologicalIy unsound, especially as the
invariable custom is to eat the walnuts
and drink the port after dinner. The
food value of walnuts is very high. They
are very rich in fat containing as much
as 63 per cent while the proteins amount
to nearly 16 per cent. 1t has been calcu-
lated that thirty large walnut kernels
contain as much fat as two and three
fourths pounds of lean beef. and yet the
walnut is used as supplement to
square meal. Added to this the glass of
port, say two fluid ounces. contains. be-
sides $50 grains of alcohoR ~ grains OF
grape sugar. In the combination, there
fore. we have all the elements which
make for a complete diet. namely, fat.
protein, carbohydrate, to which may be
added mineral salts. Port and walnutS
after a meal are, therefore. from nutri-
tive point of view, ridiculous excess.
The digestive disturbance to which this
excess may easily lead is, in fact, the
price paid for an eSthetic indulgence. The
peculiar palatability of a crushed mass
of walnuts occasionally moistened with
an elegant port is in part attributable to
the smooth, creamy emulsion which is
formed An emulsion presents elegant
fiavors in a way which increases their
appreciation. 1t should be added that
both wanutS and port wine contain tam
min, which is unsuited to some constitu-
tons.

The Life of the Bicycle.

From the Toledo Blade.
The bicycle craze as a craze is history
printed and put away upon the dusty
shelves. But bicycle popularity is still
a very lively thing, a long way from the
time when the services of the obituary
writer suggested.
There are not so many factories as
there We're in the nneties, when bicycles
were masters of the road, but the fac
tories which have survived turn Out
more wheels in a given time than any
did in the nineties turn them out better
their managers declare, and market then
at one-fOurth the old price. Improve
ments have been made and by the stan
dardizing of parts costs have been cut
down amazingly. The best thing about
the bicycle today is that it is owned by
those who need it most-the wage-earner
the messenger boy, the schoolboy anG
the school teacher. AS an engine of peri
it has been utterly eclipsed but as q
cheap and an exceedingly handy vehicle
the motar car can never hope to rival it
1t will always have place strictly utili
tartan with adults and pleasure fol
youngsters. If aeroplanes become d.
easy to run as sewing machines, the
same thing cannot be said for the auto
mobile.

not brighten him. 1t did not make him

There was death in each of the two

less glare in them. The missioner looked

GERMAN WOMEN IN POLITICS.
Increased Activity Follows Repeal of
Absurd Laws.
From the Queen.


| One OF the most striking features In the
development of modern Germany is the
| number Of societies which have been or
ganized and the conferences which are
held on all subjects directly or indirectly
contributing to the welfare OF the nation:
| and it is little realized how large a share
women are taking in them.
1t Is natural that this should be So for
every year sees an increase in the number
or women who are entering the trades
and professions and taking part in public
life. While the employment of men has
increased 20 per cent during the last
twelve years in Germany the employment
OF women has increased 81 per cent in
the same time.
A full third Of the economic labor OF
the German empire is at present carried
on by women. Statistics show that
there are 9,5oO.OOO wage-earning women
in Germany. which means that a very
large proportion are contributing to the
| rapidly increasing wealth of the country.
The repeal of the law forbidding women
| to attend political meetings or to join
political societies, which had been in op-
Grafton in Prussia and Bavaria has in
creased the political spirit among women
| and has done much to advance their aims.
The injustice of this law did more than
anything else to open women'S eyes to
| their position and to stimulate them to
agitate for the elementary rights of join
| ing political associations. The most re-
tactfonary and the bitterest opponent OF
| 'womens rights could but admit it's
glaring contradictions.
| While it forbade women to join political
societies it allowed them to form associa
| tions for the purpose Of elections; while
| they were not permitted to be present al
public meetings convened for political OBJ
! jects.
1t was necessary to resort to absurd
subterfuges, as. for instance to suspend
a meeting while woman addressed It
and after she had finished, to declare IL
open again. Moreover tho women in
the states where these laws existed could
not be prevented from becoming mem
bers of political societies under neighbor-
ing governments.
After the repeal of the law all political
societies made haste to solicit womens
support and cooperation: they were
nominated to responsible official posts
as members of executive committees Of
political associations. and they We're n-
trusted with difficult work, while ques-
tons of special Importance to women are
now dealt with in speeches and I'm political
publica tons. 1t is, however, significant
fact that the majority have held aloof
from mems societies, and under the lead
ership of brilliant women are strengthen
ling and consolidating their own.
