HE FACES A PROBLEM.
Frisco Registrar Has Trouble Ascer-
tanning Height OF Women Voters.

San Francisco, Feb. 1-Registrar zee
mansky stated today that the problem OF
obtaining the ages of women voters is as
nothing compared with ascertafning their
height. In the first place. his assistants
report many women objecting to rernov-
ing their hats as the office IS unprovided
with mirrors. But when hats are re-
moved. the clerks are confronted with
the delicate task of making allowances
for rats, puffs, switches, not to mention
French heels.
Until some new and accurate system IS
devised the registrar fears a sudden
change in styles may invalidate the
women polling list Meantime he puts no
faith in his measuring machines.

pleased with the showing of Kansas
state banks at this time and with crop
and business conditions for the state
Accompanying the statement of the

the following statement of his opt1m-
istic views on conditions for the new
year;
@The result of the official call of

of Kansas, is quite satisfactory. 1t
shows the banks to be in strong
position, with an increase Of deposits
since August IS. 1911, of $3,O31 ,4S9.13.
Banking and business conditions in
Kansas for January, 1912, exceeded
expectations. Bank deposits have in
creased. Money has been in strong
demand at reasonable rates for legiti-
mate business purposes The retail
and general trade has been normal
with the usual quiet pulse of the first
month of the year.
'"The conditions of the 1912 wheat
crop are most hattering and one of the
most promising in the history of the
state. Whatever may be the finish,
of from 100, 900. 600 to 125.00O,0OO
bushels. The crop prospects for the
current year are very pleasing The
farmers are beginning to talk and get
ready for spring work.
Banker the Best Judge
''The Kansas banker has become
quite inquisitive in his relationship
with the borrowers of the funds of the
banks, requiring much information as
TO what the borrower intends to in
rl.cyrf H. T-
the bank for This is correct and
good banking.
While credit is the greatest power
in the business and banking world for
success, it Is also a dangerous privilege
with many PEOPLE. The banker is often
a better judge than the borrower, as
to whether he IS borrowing money for
4 probable successful venture. And
often the banker is as deeply interest
ed, and possibly more 50, as to the
wisdom and success of his customers

funds that do not belong to him. They
are sacred, or trust funds, SO as to
speak. of his depositors and he should
in every loan eliminate as far as pos
sible, the loss of those funds, and dis
courage in every way recklessness and

est possible minimum He is the keep

under the statute takes solemn pledge
that he viii keep that trust most sa-

4 congratulate the Kansas bankers
upon their being allowed the privilege
to do a banking business i'll Kansas.
No state in the Union offers the pos
sibilities and rich future for banking
and all other lines of business, as does
Kansas If you cannot succeed in

juice. To be served cold, asparagus
must be thoroughly cooked, thor
oughly drained and quite cold.
Sauce Tartare.
Put into dish 1 tablespoon chop
ped parsley, teaspoonful each of
chopped capers, made mustard, and
minced onion. Add half a pint of
salad>dressing and mix well.
Asparagus on Toast.
Left over asparagus may be used
for this. Reheat it and put it on
slices of thin crisp toast. Cover it
with cream sauce. Shredded
wheat biscuit or cold baking pow
der biscuit made crisp in the oven
can be used. This makes a good
supper or breakfast dish.
A Fruit Mixture.
Slice six oranges, one pineapple
and six bananas. Place the sliced
bananas in glass dish and sprinkle
them with sugar and CHOPPED nut
meats. Then place layer of Or
anges with the sugar and nuts, then

Some Seasonable Recipes.

A good way to cook asparagus is
to stand the stalks in boiling water,
slightly sailed. They should be tied
in bundles and the tips better pro-
ject little above the water as they
will steam tender while the lower
part of the stalks are boiling. When
all are done, serve with thin
white sauce or with melted butter,
with Hollandaise sause.
HOllandaise Sauce.
3 tablespoons butter,2 tablespoons
flour, 1 cup boiling water, salt and
pepper. Add yolk of one cold boil
ed egg, I teaspoon onion juice and
some minced parsley.
Asparagus with Cucumber
The combination of these two
vegetables gives fine flavor. If
the cucumbers are short, cut them
lengthwise and hollow out the cen
ter, making two boatshaped recep-
tacles for the stalks of cold cooked
asparagus. If larger cucumbers are
used four boats may be made from
each. Set the asparagus filled GU
cumber on ice till ready to serve
and then cover them with mayon-
aise and serve on lettuce leaf.
Asparagus with Watercress
Wash the cress thoroughly and
break it into bits, removing the
coarse leaves. When ready to serve
mix il with salad oil, vinegar, salt
and pepper. Arrange it in a mound
and around it put cold asparagus
tips. This makes a delicious salad
Cold Asparagus
Without combining with any thing
else, cold asparagus make an appe-
tizing dish. Use French dressing,
adding little mustard. Or use a
mayonaise OF sauce tartare. 1t is
