The high priestess blushed, but in

The lawyer representing Mrs. Oar

Six witnesses for the defense fol-

tor is willing; but this being my first

very much; they are so long and

that make one feel better after read
ing.
I have watched all the papers for

Dear Friends Of the Social Corner.
1t was not my intention to write a let
ter this week, but Cora ana Queen
Bess have caused me to change nv
mind. By way of introduction would
say that | am the mother of grown
up children. All that 1 say to you has
been learned from experience. No
mother ever loved her darlings Cearer
than l loved mine.
When l married I knew nothing
about the training of children. l never
held baby in my arms until l held
my own; and | would say to you Cora
never allow anyone, not even the
nearest or dearest belonging to you, 10
interfere in the bringing up OF your
little boy. If you do you may live to
regret it. You would not be the first
mother to DO this. Train him from his
earliest years, not wait until by-an6-
by, for that may be too late, and the
work viii be much harder.
Queen Bess DO not be too syrnga-
theUic with your children. AS they
gToW older they will see this and take
advantage Of 1t. l had q very dear
friend who had one only boy. lie was
brought up with all the fond care that
loving parents could bestow on him.
lie grew go be a handsome young mull
and secured an excellent position in
large city. His parents had planned
to sell their little farm and move To
the city. that their boy might live at
home.
That young man in his own home
was always told TO do right; but he
was not warned Of the pitfalls that he
might stumble into when he went out
into the world. He had never seen a
gambling table or a pool room, or the

swer the parents when asked to do
something.
Children should know parents appre-
ciate what they do for them And in
return pleasant surprises should be
planned for them by parents, and they
should Join with children in the even
ing at some game, or music, or read
ing a book aloud, so all can enjoy their
company. Then they won't look else
where for spending their spare time
and evenings. A good mother is like
a good gardener, who can care for
some rare. and choice plant, keep all
the weeds down and give room 30 grow
until It is large enough to be put In
larger garden. There the weeds are
let grow up around it until unnotic-
ed and uncared for it is hidden from
sight with ell the lovely foliage SO
tenderly cared for and so much admir-
ed lost sight of and ruined.
I hope the day Is not far off when
every true and honest woman can vote
for the betterInent Of her home and
country. There will be more Justice
and less bargain sales.
Women assessors would not shlrk
their duties as we hear male officials
do not SO far off
Where are the laws and what are
they made for If not for all alike?

POTLATCH'S KNOWLEDGE
OF SUFFRAGE.

Dear Editor and Social Corner
Friends; Like Silver SiXpence, have
missed some OF the papers OF the So
clal Corner.
am sure it's not the Editors fault.
The bad weather delayed much OF Our
eastern mail, and papers are some
times lost by the way. ! have just
received The Bulletin of the 23d inst
and after reading the story by Shut
In and letters from other Sisters 1
thought l would have little visit with
you.
We are having one of our good old
Washington rainy days When l read
of the cold weather in many states
east, / feel ! cannot complain, even
if we are having lots Of rainy weather.
We have had many sunshiny days
through January and one snowStorm.
The snow only lasted about As hours,
and since then the weather has been
like an April month in old Connect
cut
Frozen of Maine has my sympathy.
One does not mind the cold weather
so much when used to it.
Queen Bess and A Dreamer think
the fight against whisl1ey is far more
rights. My dear Sisters, cannot you
realize that the very thing TO down the
whiskey traffic is the votes from the
mothers, wives and sisters all over the
worldl The first votes cast by the
women Of our city closed the re-
stricted district and put good clean
man in office for mayor. and he closed
up several saloons, and others that are
open must close at II ?. N.
Queen Bess: 1t takes but little time
to register, and very little longer to
cast your vote, and when your little
boys are men and can talk with you
about the conditions OF the country
and you can advise them, having kept
in touch with the industrial and finan-
cial affairs, I am sure you will think
il only just that woman has equal
rights to help make the laws she must
obey. There are women. as well as
men. who like TO do public work. They
are busy and have done much 20 help
womanilin9; but the home mother
need not neglect one duty as a voter,
no more than she would to go to
church or attend any social function.
1t is not nay wish TO criticise any OF
the Social Sisters, but ] honestly hope
you will all think that the right of
suffrage will be the greatest chance TO

A LINE FROM THE
PINE TREE STATE,

Dear Editor Social Corner Sisters:
Aunt julie: was much pleased with
your remedy for burns. I am very I'M
lucky around the stove. What l use Is
witch hazel, which l fine gives quick
relief
Dreamer: l am very glad of the
welcome hand you have given me as
a stranger.
Olga: Thank you also for the inter
est you take in my state, The climate
is very healthy; good dry air; much
different from Connecticut or Rhode
Island. in which places I have lived.
I had friend come from Massachu-
sets a week ago When he landed at
our city ne was much surprised when
they told him it was below zero. The
air is so dry that we don't mind zero
weather, as we should if it was damp.
1t is much pleasanter here in summer
than in winter, the same as all places
are.
Having ten large lakes and ponds,
with boating and fishing, and making
new friends, for they keep boarders
near u.s. time passes very pleasantly.
We have high winds that seem to come
right off the White mountains. They
can be seen from our place. with the
snow on them. It is a grand sight.

It is nice to have new writer's
come in and take the vacant chairs.
The month of January has gone.
It was a freezer, yet there was much
warmth from the Social Corner let
ters which came from the hand and
hearts of the writer's.
The Social Corner is now about two
years old. Did you ever see any
thing grow faster; and for the space
last week we might say it was "all
wool and a yard wide"
When the editor gave notice that he
would devote a portion Of The BuIle-
tin to the Social Corner he did a
good thing for the people and a great
favor to the many writer's who now
feel acquainted with each other, and
it brings friendship that will never be
forgotten. The letters have brought
valuable ideas to the mind and from
the recipes d mighty good lot Of cook
ed stuff for the stomach's sake.
While the editor is very kind to us
all, he cannot make the Social Corner
page for US to read. 1t is all left for
the writers to make it what it is, and
as we enter into the third year of
what has been much pleasure to many,
let US all vote that we will make the
page better than ever before.

written to the Social Corner; and ]
have felt like one lost at sea with

THE INFLUENCES OF LIFE.

Dear Editor and Sisters of Social

Granted this is SO, can things be much

We know what the Bible says Of the
iniQuity Of the parents being visited
unto the third and fourth generations.
1t is all very well to claim mothers
have the training Of the children and
we can teach them to shun all kinds Of
vice. 1t is not so in every case.
I know Of a mother who was left
witR~three small children, the youngest
only a little over year, to care for.
She went to her parents, where she did
any kind of honest work to provide for
her children.
All grandparents do not agree with
the parents, so they get some ideas
from them.
This mother would never allow her
children to swear; was careful who
they played with: would severely pun
ish child If 1t even tasted cider. As
time went on the Oldest boy at the age
of IA went to work and to live in a
Christian home different from their
mothers, where they thought it no
harm to have a glass, or in fact, all
the cider they cared to drink-sipping
1t through a straw. For a while this
boy refused to touch It; but sat watch
ing to see who really drank it.
In this home he saw his Sunday
school teacher and other church folks
drink it, and as they urged him to try
it he finally yielded.
1 have heard him say he had took
his first drink with member of &
church. Strange that any follower Of
Christ should take a boy. for he WASN'T
