SAVING TIME WITH ELECTRICAL
APPLIANCES.

Some folks say that woman is
one hundred years behind in her men
tai development on account of her
dress and some say she is one thou
sand years behind on account of her
hats. Some there be who valantly
admit that she is not behind in this
respect. 1t is probable that none of
these plain spoken people mean to in
fer that she is behind any particular
standard of excellence which could
easily be named but simply that she
has not developed the brilliant quail
ties with which she was endowed.
Mental development is synonymous
with getting away from the old, TAX
ing up the new and how far women
have gone in this respect each one
should know. Every woman has the
opportunity of applying the twentieth
into her own life and home. The home
is wonderful center of activities
where every economy of time and la
Dor means that so much has been
gained in the yearly inventory of
time, strength and money just exactly
the same as it does in a large manu-
featuring concern or any other bust
ness.
The wonders which electricity will
perform in almost anything which per-
tains to household routine can not be
enumerated. 1t does the hardest
work, it makes quick work of what
was slow and draggy, it makes clean
work of what was mussy work. The
washing does not now need to take
the entire time and strength of one
person for an entire day or half day.
An electric motor performs the work
which was once done by rubbing on a
dashboard or turning a handle.
Cleaning the house with a vacuum
cleaner is not the disagreeable oper-
alton of raising a dust with one i'm
plement and wiping it up with another
relic of the past after it settles, while
good share of it is again projected
into the air.
And so in one thing after another
the work of the household has been
simplified and made less. Thomas Edi-
son said that electricity and machin-
cry would make household drudgery
a thing of the past, and that as soon
as women please. And it is true that
electric heat and power have made
different processes out of cooking,
sewing laundrying, cleaning, lighting
and even heating.

OPPOSING JUDGES

ernor may remove the judge if he
chooses, or if he otherwise chooses
he may refrain from removing. 1t
was not intended to make the re-
moyal of a judge from his office a
swift and easy operation.
Nevertheless, one Judge of a Mas
sachusetts court has been thus re-
moved-and, if our memory is accur-
ate, he was the only judge in hun
bred years for whose removal there
was any definite popular demand, and
this demand was by no means unani-
nous. His offending, too, was not in
connection with ihs acts as a Massa-
chusetts judge. This was Judge Ed
ward G. LOTing of the Suffolk pro.
bate court who, sitting as a United
States commissioners, sent Anthony
Burns, a negro, back to slavery. For
this, the Abolitionists made a demand
that he should be removed from Office
as probate Judge; and, though they
were not Immediately successful, they
finally accomplished their desire. 1t
was not because Edward G. Loring
was inefficient or unfaithful as a pro
bate Judge; but because he had Of

ton. The case demonstrated the
practicability of the method pre-
scribed by the Constitution; but we

Satisfaction in Theodore Roose-
yelt's compliment to Massachusetts
for her expeditions method of getting
rid Of judges is tempered by the re-
alization that he stated the method
incorrectly, says the New Bedford
Republican Standard 1t is better, re-
marked Josh Billings, not to know so
many things than to know so many
things that amt so; and this applies to
Mr.. Roosevelt's Statement Of the Mas
sachusetts judicial system AS he de-
scribed and praised that system, it
provides for 'appointive judges who
serve during good behavior subject
to removal not by impeachment, but
by a simple majority vote of the two
houses of the legislature, whenever
the representatives of the people feel
that the needs of the people require
such removal" Still the Constitution
of Massachusetts, a document which
yet has efficiency, has this to say
about the judges: Provided, never
theless, the governor, with the con
sent of the council may remove them
upon the address of both houses OF
the legislature The process, it will
be seen, is quite different from Mr.
Roosevelt's conception. First, the
two houses of the legislature must
agree on the address; then the coun-
Gil must approve; after that, the gov

USE OF THE PILOT LIGHT.

Electric current is often used need
lessly by forgetting to turn off the
light when leaving the basement, at
tic or other little used apartment. it
is a good idea to have a pilot light, as
it is called, connected in the same cir
cult with the little used lights, but To-
Gated in the living rooms where it will
be readily seen. 1t burns only when
the previous mentioned lights are
used and gives warning on returning
to the living rooms if one has care
lessly forgotten to turn them out.

my hat is in the ring" Edward
Brick, chief of police of this city, says
that he has the only real story from
which the remark originated. Accord
ing to Chief Brick, Col. Roosevelt OBJ
tanned the remark in North Dakota,
where It is common near Medora, the
former presidents one time home.

wait the hat was allowed to remain
the man knew that his wife was will

sailed out again he knew that danger

Il am sure that Col. Roosevelt had
that in mind when he made thatrstate-

people to make known to him whether
they wanted him for president. In

SAYS BIBLE NEEDS REVISION,
Woman Cannot Be Christian and Suf.

CHICAGO, December IO-'A woman
cannot De conscientious Christian
and a suffragist also. because of mans
monopoly of the Bible and religion
said Mrs. Laura G. Fixen. business
manager of the Working Women's
Home. last night before the wOman's
party here.
We cannot accept the Bible as a divine
inspiration. because. it features the male
sex in everything almost to the exclusion
of the female she continued. Man
has usuTped almost everything in re-
l;gion as well as everything else.
I'm the Bible that We know, God is
represented as man, Christ as i man.
the apostles as men and tho angels in
heaven as men. and in it women are COM
manded to obey their husbands. Suffra-
gists cannot accept the Bible literally as
a divine inspiration. We must see that 1t
was written by men at time when
women were their chattels. The posi-
ton given women in the Bible has kept
them from their rights as the equals Of
men. The Bible needs revision. Il u
not up-to-date."
