Geraldine Farrar is an old,fashioned
woman. She is also, psrhaps, the
highest paid songstress in the world.
If she is not there are not more than
two or three other women who earn
as much.
There have always been exception
al women" she said. Some of them
knew great deal more than our col
lege graduates know today. But that
does not change the great facts of life.
Woman has always been the burden
bearer and she cannot be anything
else. She may find it easier and more
interesting to attend suffrage meetings
than to care for her children. But il
is not more important.
women talk of progress and take
a little interest in great many things
But they will never do the same worl
as men. They were not made for it.

CAP A. COLD FOR Csc
AN uNREwARpEp INVENTOR.

E. The death from hunger and cold
of the originator of cold storage,
Charles Teller is as sad tragedy as
the romance of invention has to show.
Teller gave the modern world the
principles of refrigeration on which 1t
has based gigantic industry. He
made possible the great cold storage
warehouses in which perishable food
is preserved, the fleets of ships in
which it is carried between nations
and the long trains of railroad cars
by means of which it is conveyed
from producing to distributing CEN
tres. Thanks to his invention, the
worlds supply of perishable feed is
minimized.
Cold storage, though it has been ex-
plotted for profit and abused for mer-
cenary reasons, is nevertheless one
of the most useful of industrial inven-
tons. Yet the man who gave it to the
world is allowed to die in his old age
in penury-with the ribbon of the Lee
gion of Honor to console him but with
not enough to eat. II Teller had
amused society or cheated it or scan
dalized it, he might have died rich. In
stead, and in return for great serv-
! ice, he is treated with greater neglect
! than any pauper in workhouse.-New
York World.

Turn back over hundred years
to the days of Andrew Jackson
French Market Coffee was even then
the most famous drink in America.
Its history entwines itself with the.
history of the old aristocracy of the
South. The Bellies and Beaux of
New Orleans slipped it at midnight
for generations. To them no Mardi
Gras Ball was complete without a
cup of French Market Coffee. Think
what 1t means to you to be able to
serve this identical blend on your
table daily - for your own grocer
now sells tin air-tight cans.

recommend Justice Charles \. Wood

This information came straight from
the department Of justice through a
senator who has been in close touch
with the situation and seems as re-
liable as could possibly be without
an actual nomination having been
made.
There is nothing from the White
House on the matter now as it is not
customary to give out advance in

and nothing absolute will he known
