INTERESTING PAGE FOR WOMAN AND THE HOME
JANE adams WARNS
AGAINST OFFICE
Urges Sufrasist to Go Slow in Their
Race for Political
RegfAs-

Jane Adams returned to Chicago last
week from her European trip. and her
FIRST message to the newly enfranchised
women OF Illinois was to go slow in
their aspirations to public ONCE" She
told them there was plenty Of time for
that.
Her arrival with such a message came
Just as the new voters were becoming
enthusiastic over the plan to elect a
woman Alderman in the Twentieth ward
to succeed the late NANNY" Abrahams
Miss Adams declined to comment on
that step.
MRS. T. W. Atkinson. mentioned as
the candidate, I know very well. and
think very highly Of her. but I would
rather not discuss the political situation
in that ward" she said last night at
Hull House. where many friends called
to welcome her home.
THE women of Illinois are certainly
to be congratulated on their wonderful
victory. intend to see the women who
led In the fight for the new law and
congratulate them personally. The
granting Of woman suffrage In Illinois
will have incalculable influence in ex-
tending the movement.
women ought not to try to jump into
Office too quickly. There are other ways
IN which they can use their new Priv
ilege to a better advantage for the pres
sent. The women, naturally. must be
educated to the use OF the ballot Here
at Hull House We will take immediate
steps toward the formation Of classes
for the instruction of foreign women"
Miss Adams disposed of the story
about her running for Mayor by declar-
ing herself to be a candidate for no pub
lie office. She also said that in her opin-
ion there was no reason to suppose that
the women will form a new party.
Despite Miss Adams stand. the suf-
fragists continued their campaign for
Mrs. Allinson as Alderman. She was in
dorsed on every side, and some even
attributed a platform Of policies to her.
Mrs. Atkinson Is out of the city.
While in Europe Miss Adams attended
the international suffrage meetings at
Budapest.

at midnight last night to spend at least
one day, and possibly two. in finding out
whether the new marine barracks, to be
constructed in that city. are actually
needed. Congress has appropriated
sl5O.OOo for building the barracks. but
Secretary of the Navy Daniels il de-
termined to hold the construction up un-
less he Is certain that the building is
urgently needed. Whether he can do this
under the law. when Congress has spe-
officially appropriated the required money
for the construction. is a question which
Mr.. Daniels will have to fight out with
the Pennsylvania delegation in Congress.
Secretary Daniels is decidedly averse
to the concentration Of the marines at
Philadelphia. He intends to maintain \
marine base at Pensacola, Fla, where
they can be called upon at any time
when trouble breaks out in any Of the
Caribbean nations. This. however, will
in no way affect the present base al
from which practically the
entire force of marines temporarily has

Dear Young Folks: Did you ever hear
Of boy who couldn't find his own nose?
Ask a crowd Of boys this question and
they will call you "a silly" Then chal-
lenge the boy who is jeering the most
loudly at the idea and proceed to prove
that he can't always find his nose even
when trying very hard.
Stand him up in front Of the other
boys and ask him to catch hold of his
nose with his left hand and Of his ear
with his right hand as the boy in the
drawing is doing. After he has done
SO tell him to place each hand as quickly
as possible in a reverse position-that is
to catch hold Of his nose with his right
hand and at the same time grasp his
right ear with his left hand. He will
do this with reasonable quickness.
Then say quickly. reverse again. I"
This time he will tumble little.
Tell him to repeat this operation sew
eral times. and you will see that the
oftener he does it the more fun he will
make for the others. since after a few
times he will be confused and will find
1t more and more difficult to find his
nose and his ears and will spend consid-
cradle time in searching for them in
places where they cannot possibly be.
You can raise q laugh at his expense
by asking IL he thinks his nose grows
on the side of his cheek.

Rare Perfume Made at
Home at Trifling Cost
CFrom the Woman Beautifully

A girl we'll known for her daintiness
conceived the idea of compromising her
own perfumes at home, and now her
friends are thanking her for the sugges-
ton. Her favorite perfume. a rare and
costly blend. she could not buy under i've
dollars an ounce. more than she could az
ford. From an importing chemist she
learned that by combining 2 drains of
formal concentrate and 4 ounces deodor-
lied alcohol, both to be had at any drug
store, she could produce a perfume SINH
lar to the one she preferred, at trifling
expense. The odor was even more ex-
quisite and refined, she declared, and the
cost Of the four ounces was less than q
dollar-less than twenty-five cents an
ouncei An immense saving-which, Incl
dentally, gives some idea of the profit
ableness of the perfumery industry.
Flornal concentrate Is the highest Gre
alton Of the perfumer's art. BY simply
mixing IL with the alcohol. 1t becomes
deliciously fragrant and delicate. The
perfume should be placed in a bottle
which las been thoroughly rinsed.
F1ornal concentrate is sold and recon-
mended by Afheck's and other reliable
drug stores.
