PUT LOVE ABOVE LAW
Two Chicagoans Oppose Fed
eral Marriage Regulation.
fBy Telegraph 10 The Tribune. !


Chicago. Oct. s.-Federal regulation OF
marriage, advocated by the Rock River
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, found two dissenters In Chicago
to-day.
Laws were declared futile by the Rev.
Joseph A. Milburn, pastor Of Plymouth
Congregational Church. and attempt at
regulation of marriage by the government
was denounced as Objectionable paternal-
ism by DR.. Julia Holmes Smith, a promi-
nent member OF women's clubs.
II think that we should have uniformity
of divorce laws" said DR.. Smith. but
do not believe in paternalism in govern
ment, and that is what regulation OF
marriage would mean. Besides, we can
not treat men and women like animals.
A marriage must be guided by love and
the instincts Of love, or It is not to the
best interests OF the state. and It Is not
productive Of valuable offspring"
I'VE have laws enough now" said DR..
Milburn. Besides, each case presents its
own peculiar problems and calls for its
particular prescription. Perhaps we had
better trust to the upward tendency OF
the race and the tendency toward reality
and truth. Anyway. the world is pro-
ducing better people to-day than ever be-
fore In the history OF civilization"

AIDS HER MOTHER IN SUIT
Schoolgirl the Star Witness OF
Action for Divorce.

The whispered testimony OF Ida Brown,
sixteen-year-old school girl, In the Su-
preme Court yesterday may obtain a d.
vorce for her mother, Mrs. Frances Il.
Brown, who is suing her husband. Will
lam II. Brown, a rich retired farmer OF
Deruyter, Cortland County, ~ Y, and
the owner OF the Little York Inn.
Miss Brown was the principal witness
for her mother. who depended on her
testimony to sever the marriage bonds OF
her father and mother. The child realized
the pathos OF the situation. but she gave
her evidence In an impressive manner.
TIE correspondent in the case is Miss
"Rexie" Gillette II Is an odd coincidence
that Grace Brown, who was murdered by
Chester Gillette, also lived near Deruyter
and Gillette lived in Cortland. However,
the parties TO the suit and the principals
in the sensational murder were not re-
lated.
Mr.. and Mrs. Brown were married In
1888 and have two children. They have
been living apart for seven years. MISS
Brown is attending school In this city.
She visited her father last August and
learned that he had moved to a house
about q quarter Of mile from his hotel.
She found Miss Gillette In the house In
deshabille. she testified. and Miss Gillette
told her to run away. The witness also
told of seeing her father with the core

Mrs. Cora Finch testified that she had

For ironing day there are mangies for

Cleaning day is said to be made q 10Y

For baking day there are all kinds of
ovens that maintain an equal heat, and
there is one whole range that almost
seems to think. If the housewife wants
to go off and make some afternoon calls.
she need have no compunctons about

trivances is the small fat pan stove. it
is light in weight, compact in form and

tea on it so that everything was ready

the toy that many people think 1t.

told OF the early adventures of the pio-
neers in searching for markets. After
they had thought It ali over. she said. and
decided the only way to beat the high
cost OF living was to buy food directly
from the producer, they started out In an
automobile one fine morning to find the
producer-that is. the public market.
They hunted all over New York, and
they found only one-Washington Market.
Since then Mrs. Heath has hunted In
nearly every large city In the country,
and the situation was found to be as pad
everywhere. But now five hundred thou
sand women have enrolled In the House
wives League, and the politicians have
promised to give them the markets.
The other speakers were Borough Presi-
dent Miller OF The Bronx and Alderman
Brush, both friends of the market Move
ment, and Mrs. E c. Griffin, chairman OF
the housewives day committee.
The league had booth near the middle
OF the market, where blue and white but
tons were passed out to all who paid 10
cents to join the ranks Of the embattled
housewives. Also. copies were distributed
of the Bulletin of the Housewives
League" brand new publication de-
voted to. the interests of pure food and
low prices. Mrs. Josephine Reddlng,
treasurer OF the league. Is the editor in
chief. The first number includes letters
from the Presidential candidates in an
swer to Mrs. Heath's inquiry as to their
position on the question of removing the
tariff on meat, and a letter from wool
grower. telling why the duty should not
be removed. There Is also an article by
Mrs. Heath, describing the purposes Of
the Housewives League.

The Electrical Exposition
Shows Many Devices That
Tighten Housework.

The only thing left for the electrical
wizards to do now is to invent an au-
tomaton which will turn on all the
switches that start the fire and broil the
chops and cook the coffee and make the
toast and wash the clothes and turn on
the grand opera in the parlor-and then.
hurrah! the servant problem will be
solved.
Perhaps that paragon automaton will
appear at next years electrical show. The
show for this year, which flung its doors
open to the public yesterday afternoon,
contents itself with demonstrating how
home life can be Just one turn Of the
switch after another.
For instance, one rises In the morning,
and, kicking aside the electric foot warm
er that has kept him from shivering in
the chill winds of autumn, turns on the
button that heats the water for his morn
ing tub. While the water is heating he
sterillzes his toothbrush, brushes his
teeth and, IL he is fearfully particular,
uses little electric device that cleans the
spots II is difficult to reach with brush.
On the breakfast table sits a compact
upon the turning of a switch starts the
water boiling in an egg boiler and the
coffee going in a square little pot that
matches the shape of the boiler. The
toast browns between them or the bacon
fries there.
Suppose II Is morning in the ballroom
Of the business woman. All her blouses
are wrinkled. and Just on this particular
day she wishes to look especially neat,
going to strike for raise or something
Of that sort. Out comes the electric iron
and In a jiffy blouse is made present
able. Then the iron Is turned over and
rested on standard that comes with II
and the water for the morning coffee is
set to boil while she busily makes cap
tivating little curls around her forehead
with an electric curling iron.
Every day In the week can be made

THE USE OF OLIVE OIL IN DILL
PICKLES (by request -There are sew
eral kinds OF pickles for which olive oil
is recommended by the writer's Of cook
books. One oldtime authority calls for It's
use in a cucumber catsup, another puts
Il into a mustard pickle, and still an
other uses II with wine in a cucumber
chow-chow. 1t is also used In muskmelon
mangoes-an old-fashioned favorite-and
In ordinary cucumber pickles, such as
were lately recommended by reader Of
The Tribune.
But. IN spite Of the variety Of recipes
that call for olive oil, its use has not be-
come popular. One may look through
shelves Of cookbooks without even seeing
a mention OF oil pickles. It must be re-
membered that olive oil is an expensive
ingredient to put into a Jar OF pickles,
and In most cases Il Is extravagant, be-
cause the delicate flavor Of the oil is
usually quite hidden by the spices, onions
and vinegar. The oil betrays its presence
only by the oily quality It imperts to the
pickles. There are housekeepers who
abominate this oily quality, but there are
Just as many, and perhaps more, who like
the pickles especially because Of this
quality and believe that It is worth the
cost Of the oil. Those who indulge in the
extravaganza are won't to excuse them
selves on the ground that pickles dressed
with olive oil and vinegar are no more
unwholesoms than salad dressed In the
same way.
Following are two recipes for Oil pickles
that are timely:
"Housekeeper'' asks II ground mustard
might not be used in an oil pickle to bet
ter advantage than mustard seed. 1t can
be used in place of mustard seed, whether
