. SMASHING ANSWER.

Albert Jeremiah Beverage, FORMER
Senator from Indiana. claims that MI
Roosevelt wanted him TO ask Governor
Wilson a certain vital question. II
was TO this effect: Since many OF the
trusts are organized under the laws
OF New Jersey. why has not Mr. VIII
son as Governor recommended amend
-rer-s" that would curtail the power
of such corporations:
Governor Wilson's reply is: Cd In
his inaugural and on three other occa-
slons in messages to the Legislature
he did recommend such amendments.
and G, at the 1911 session OF the
Legislature the Republicans controlled
the Senate. ami were so busy defeat
ing Governor Wilson's progressive
measures that it had no time TO meet
his repeated demands that the cor
poration laws be reformed in the in
ta-est OF the people.
That is a reply at once disnified and
effective that knocks the question into
a cooked hat.

THE KITCHENETTE MAN.

A popular New York cooking school
is now imparting instruction to a
small class Of mere males. who are
anxious TO obtain a working know
ledge Of the manipulation OF the kitch-
eaet:e. its problems and its possibih-
ties. The matter is momentous- Why
is man mindful of the kitchene:te?
They have naught in common: their
association is yelled in mystery. Not
that the kitchen IS profaned by mans
entrance: there are times when. as a
culinary aide, he may be OF emergency
service there. He sometimes may
properly investigate the refrigerator,
but ne has nothing to do with the
kitchenette.
Can It be that anything connected
with the woman's movement is respon-
s;ble for this k!tchenette activity Of
man? Who knows? Is a complete ex-
change Of spheres impending between
the male and the female of the species
Have the men become convinced that
the ki.cheaette is something that they
must come to sooner or later? Are
they preparing for the future?

He met up with another gal who

Who knew no brilliant repartee. nor

airy Hall He never ceased to fear that
the government might be tempted to
pay the Confederate debt Senator
Hepburn always seemed sincere in this
feeling: he did not need to be SO bitter
for the sake of making votes He was
simply q survival OF type that once
was very numerous in Congress, and
which the passing years have cast
