The foregoing do not actually repre-

plurality Of about $4,000.

There will be nothing of uncertainty
in the instructions of either the Demo

The votes by which they were elected

Two Women Delegates.
The women voted in large numbers
In San Francisco il is estimated about
10000 OF them cast their votes. The
womens vote in other portions Of the
state was in proportion to that cast in
San Francisco.
For the first time in the history Of
American politics two women have been
elected as delegates to a national con-

Japap's Kitchens
mis- Post t-Dispatch

From the st. LOUIS foSt-DispatcH;
 There Is an old saying in Japan which explains the place and duty or Japanese wives rather sarcastically but truly:
 "A wife Is n cook without pay.'
 Be she the wife of nobleman or the wife of laborer, Japanese wo- man cannot be a good wife unless she is a good cook. or at least a good supervisor of the kitchen. Probably there is no woman In the world who uses her ability to cook to better ad- vantage than the Japanese wife, who manages to keep her control over the family merely by her art of cooking. The only. place where she has an ab- solute power is in the kitchen Out side of 1t the word of her husband al- ways is law.
 But in Japan the trouble of eating food prepared by young brides Is un- known and there Is no complaint about the dishes not being like those mother used to cook. The early training of girls in cooking enables them to cook good and wholesome food. Through the stomach of her husband a Japanese wife obtains d power over him, and outside of this means there is no way of controlling her husband.
 When a Japanese woman marries she throws away the customs and peculiar ities of her parents home and con forms herself to those of her hus- bands and his family
 According to the Japanese idea, wives should be first of all kind, tender. lov- ing obedient, faithful, and should per form the household duties. And when ever a wife tries to overrule her hus- band or to run the house according to her own idea and against that of her husband it Is very likely that she will be divorced
