Ways of Cooking

Somebody asked some little time ago for various ways of cooking rhubarb. You suggested one or two. I am taking the liberty of sending a couple we have found excellent and wholesome. As you say truly, rhubarb is highely remedial. I am surprised to see now jew women ever think of varying methods Of cooking it.
 "Rhubarb Butter: Strape the stalks. but do not peel The skin gives flavor and color to the butter Cut into inch lengths and cook them tender in just er6ugh water to cover them. Stir often, end when they are soft, drain and run

Stir together and moisten with a mixture composed of one part coal and thu ee parts ashes. I suggest that the co al be slack and asaes free from clinkers, etc; ashes and coal should be mixed well before the addition of the liquid mixture. Complete, they should show fairly well moistened condition. $. o. E."

SUFFRAGE IS GAINING.

Equal suffrage rights for women as we'll as men is gaining every day, says the Woman's National Weekly. The National Education association
 in it's recsent session at St. Paul, in dorsed woman suffrage. Only few days before that, the Federation of Women's Clubs declared in favor of votes for women. Steadily but surely the campaign is winning, and in spite of present opposition woman suffrage will soon prevail. Like all innova- tions, it has encountered hostility and at times has met defeat. However, the setbacks are only temporary. The Louisiana Legislature showed ma jority in favor of suffrage, but not the necessary two-th1rds. Much ' hard work in the next two years will re- suit in a victory in the Pelican state

 those wsich tolerate child labor, will

Our Criminal Procedure. lDooa1nonnf nfnrnriCn n !

There is no doubt that there is something wrong somewhere in our administration of criminal law or in the law itself, for daily we hear of instances where those who are plain ly guilty escape punishment through some technicality or loophole of the law. About five years ago William Howard Taft, then president of the United States, said in public ad- dress:
 "It is not too much to say that the administration of criminal law in this country is disgrace to our civ ilization; and that the prevalence of crime and fraud is due largely to the failure of the law and it's administra- tion to bring the criminal to justice. We have about 5000 homicides an nually in the United States, and about one out of one hundred results in the conviction of the person committing the homicide, following by eXecu- tiOn."
 It is unfortunate that those who are convicted of capital crimes in this country are usually those who are not able to spend money in hiring law yers to find the means of delaying the execution of justice. This is true to some extent in all classes ot crimes. The man who has money to spend in defense either escapes alto- gether, secures mitigation of punish i ment or delays it. This does no, necessarily reflect upon the integrity
 of the American lawyer. It rather
 reflects on the American law, or on
 our procedure. The fact. however
 that our bar associations do not act l ively undertake the reform of our
 codes of procedure is, reflection or
 the legal profession.

DINE BL.UFF RoGREss
 RosPERITY
VANISHING THE INNOCENT.

If if he true that the wife anu children of A. e.. Russell are sutfer- ing for the necessities of life, as re- norted it is but additional evidence that our system of administering justice is wrong. Russell, former cit, collector of Pine Bluff, is serving a prison sentence for embezzlement. Because of hissS,wisdom in the ways of the world, Russell must have fully realized the wrong he was doing when he used the monies entrusted to his care. When discovery came, as it always will, Russell knew what would happen. He accepted hisl sentence stoically. Society's laws demand that he be incarcerated. the purpose being not so rn0sH to punish the offender as to Iact as a deterrent to crime.
 But as in many other instances, the punishment Of the guilty carries sxith it puniskment of the innocent. Russell, tutoring in prison. is unable to provide food for the woman who confided herself to his keeping; for the children he fathered. None of these is to blame for his offease, yet they are suffering worse than he their mental anguish is as great as his. and insofar as the shame, they have occasion to feel 1t more keenly than he; for they are subject to the scrutiny of the world, while he is safe from this behind the walls. He labors for the state, but the state gives him food and clothing; they labor free of restraint, yet are un- able to obtain sufficient food and clothing. Who will say the sentence they are serving Is not inflicting greater hardship upon them than the laws sentence imposed on Russell, the offender.
 By reason of his knowledge and his ability. Russell is enabled to render the state service that must be worth upward of $2 day The cost to feed, clothe and guard him-together with hundreds of others should not exceed 50 cents day. If the state did its duty, if the system were not wrong, this $1.50 profit would be paid to the wife and children of the con- vict
 Not until such system is in- augurated will the government cease to punish the innocent with the guilty.
