The Melting Pot was dedicated by the Ma tionaI Association a couple of weeks ago, and since then hundreds of tr1nI5 kets have been dropped in' ana the gold and, silver sold to the Govern ment for good dollar bills. Connect cut women have joined in with women of other states in sending thefr hoarded keepsakes, and have made a good and serviceable use of things that have only a sentimental value as long as they were hearded-

 SUFFRAGE NEWS
GA. G. Porritt.)

Today all over the United States women are responding to the call is- sued by the National Woman Suffrage Association for money for the cam paign states. The day is set apart as Sacrifice Day, and those women who are unable to earn money to be de- voted to the, campaign fund are asked to make some. little self-denial-to save car fares, nelking picture orI matinee money, or other little expenditures and devote the savings to the fund whfe& is being raised to help the campaign states. Seven states are now looking forward to popular votes on amend ments to their constitutions establish ing woman suffrage, and between now and November each of those seven states is to be covered from north to south and from east to west with sui frage propaganda. Literature, tray- cling expenses for speakers and post age for matter sent by mail swallow up large sums of money even when used in the most economical manner possible and every penny that can be sent from the east will be well spent in aiding forward the suffrage work.
 To win over to woman suffrage the seven. states of Nevada, Montana
 North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebras- ka, Missouri and Ohio will serve to push forward suffrage work in Connec- ticut better than anything that Suf- fra gists can do here between now and
 November It will alter the complex ion of the suffrage map of the United States. It will also alter the feeling of the national political parties in re- gard to the women's vote. Women have already shown that they can stand together on a single issue, how ever they may divide in general among the political parties. The Rev. Frank l Moore of Denver, in a recent visit to Connecticut, assured all who asked him about the working of woman suf- frage in Colorado, that the women there do stand irrespective of party, solidly against the liquor traffic; and
 what they have done in regard to one question they are learning to do in
 regard to the question of Votes for women. With seventeen states sway
 ed in national elections by the women s
 votes, there is little likelihood that any political party will turn down the request of the women when they ask l for blanks in the national party plat
 forms in favor of woman suffrage
 One picturesque method of raising
 money that has been adopted by the
 National suffrage Campaign Commit tee is the Melting Pot. This is a literal
 and actual melting pot, not a figure

IF A CHILD BINDS THEM


 ''Remember the homes where the light.

 Where the rose has faded away And love that slows in youthful
 Oh cherish it while you may!
 Make your home a bower Of flowers, Let joy bloom there through child
 God pity the childof divided hearts. The chain of love is no stronger than it's weakest link The couple who step to the altar to be made man and wife should understand they are leaving the old life behind them and entering new world. as it were Af-t ter marriage neither the husband nor wife can do absolutely as he or she wills-there is another to consult, ad- wise. with and please. es
 The trouble is many a married cou- pie wake up to the fact too late. The husband who has always had his own way does not take kindly to being dic- tated tc, by a woman. His mother aI- ways gave him his own way; he ex- poets his wife to do likewise. The spirited young wife who has been pet ted. spoiled and coddled by her family is quite as determined that she must be the ruling spirit Of the household. Slight disagreements end alr too soon in open quarrels.
 This is bad enough if there are no little ones. but if there is child look | ing on with Frightened eyes and bated breath. parents should never utter the bitter words that rise to their lips. Unconsciously, even in it's earliest years. the child will take sides with lsone or the other. The scene will be engraved upon it's memory while -tle lasts.
 Freauent quarrels of parents lead to. estrangements and contemplation Of l divorce. Ere parents should take that extreme measure they should give a thought to the innocent child whose future they would deliberately wreck by such a course. When the dovezi cote has once been desecrated, the fedglings have no heart to return to bind them. a husband and wife l should make every sacrifice in Keeping back their resentment and difficulties for the sake of the little life that would not have looked out wistfully in this cold and bitter world had it not been for them Parents owe 1t to their children to make a home for them and to cause happiness to reign within it's walls
 The wife who speaks slightingly Of her husband before her children makes a. fatal mistake. The husband who speaks sneeringly to his wife with the children looking on paves the way to be slighted himself by them when he is old. Father may endeavor to inf1u- ence them that mother is in the wrong. But in the calm Judgment Of her. as the sun1ower turns to the sum- Children should bind husband and wife in love and peace till death do ] them part.

BENNIE's EASTER DREAM
(By David Cory

Bennie woke up on Easter morning and looking across the nursery saw a. little rabbit with a big bow of blue ribbon around his neck standing in the doorway Bennie rubbed his eyes to make sure he was awake. Master Rabbit was slowly walking in on his hind feet He paused a moment and then frisked out again.
 Bennie was so surprised he hardly knew what to do, and before he had rabbit returning. with his mother s new Easter hat in one paw and in the Eother her silver hand mirror.
 Get up Bennie; I want you to try on your mothers new Easter hat, ' said the rabbit.
 Bennie climbed out of bed and sat down on a little stool. In his hurry the pants of his little pink pajamas had fallen down, but he didn't stop to put them on again. He was so de- lighted to have a real livR bunny to play with that he even overlooked the fact that mothers new hat was not a. thing to be used as a plaything.
 MT. Rabbit gazed at Bennie with a smile that curled his Whiskers up into a, funny sort of a knot. Come along!'' he said. .tYou look so cute: tie the ribbon under your chin; Pm You'd better get dressed first, though he added, as Bennfe jumped up eager L ly to follow his little friend.

 "Get ont" said the rabbit, squat ting down so Bennie could get his leg over easily. .'Hold on to my ears if you like, he cried encoura gingly, land squeeze your legs tight together.
