The executive office OF the New
Jersey. Woman Suffrage Association
will be transferred from 80 Halsey
street, this city, to Plainfield, on May
l. The reasons given by the board
for this change are that the work
may be under the direct supervision
Of the president, Mrs. e. F. Feickert,
whose home is just outside Plain
field, and that the opening of various
city suffrage headquarters. supported
and controlled by local suffrage
leagues, is doing away with the ne
cessity of local propaganda work by
the State Association in addition to
its special work of organizing the
still unorganized towns of the State,
issuing regular press bulletins, run
ming a speakers bureau and exercis-
ing general supervision of the State
work.
1t is expected that In a short time
the Newark leagues will open city
headquarters. The State Association
expects to maintain temporary head
quarters at various places where
there Is "a special need, such as at the
seashore during the summer, at
Trenton while the Legislature is in
session, etc.

Stuffed Green Peppers

My dear Miss Doom:
Green peppers are especially nice
if stuffed with boiled halibut Cleft
over from dinner, having been
served with egg sauce).
Shred fish, mix with sauce and
one raw egg, season well with pep
per, salt and few drops
of Worcestershire sauce; fill pep
pers. previously cleaned, put bread
crumbs and small piece of butter
on top and bake in warm oven
about fifteen minutes,
Cooked meat of all kinds, minced
and mixed with any left over sauce,
make a good stufling for green pep
pers, but never omit the raw egg,
as that prevents them from falling
dat. while baking; also, never have
the mixture too soft.
Hope this will be satisfactory TO

the following suggestion to the April

"If you will save the dry, brown
skins from onions and boil the eggs
with the onion skins long enough

tain beautifully dyed Easter eggs of
various shades of brown, with no
taste of the onion and no danger of
poison. as from some other dyes"

PLAIN COPY MAKES ADS PAY
Don't Shoot Over Heads Of People
You Want to Reach-What an
Illinois Merchant Did.
BY HINTON GILMORE.


Much Is said regarding the psy
~choiogy Of advertising but there are
plenty Of fellows who never took a
lesson in their lives who get returns
for their advertising outlay.
In an Illinois town OF $4,000 there
is dealer In mems furnishings who
believes in advertising through the
newspapers. but It took him a long
time to make It pay. For years his
copy didn't possess the selling
punch" 1t was being written by a
specialist and had won commentator
from people supposed to know good
advertising copy when they saw It.
But 1t was costing money and wasn't
getting the business, so the dealer
let the specialist out and began writ
ing his own copy
He made close analysis OF previous
advertisements and noticed such gems
as "plu-perfect tailoring" and acme
of sartorial achievement" and II
dawned upon him that the copy was
over the heads of the crowd
When he sat down to write his first
ad he recalled a boyhood acquaint-

as sort Of composite customer and
addressed that advertisement to

Buck" could understand; anything
that seemed beyond Bucks grasp
was left out. The result was that
he copy was plain as day.
The merchant kept up this simpn-

Christmas

The morning after the night
before has a new significance
to-day = especially to the small
boy, who has been for weeks ir
a fever of anticipation and who
has reflected long and obviously
about the size of the available
tiues and the pictured girth OF
one S. Claus. Anticipation has
turned to joyous reality = he is
no longer a sceptic - the whole
question of Santa Claus has been
removed to the illimitable dis
lance of one whole year. He is
content now with facts as they
are : speculation has lost it's
fascination.
The longing and thrill of the
weeks just before Christmas and
the tingling ecstacy of their
fruition on Christmas Morn are
not given to US many times. They
mark the borderland between the
child and the youth and it is
looked back to and remembered
by all who nave experienced it
as one of the few perfect Joys of
human existence.
In after life we have the ioys |
Of Christmas; b but they are not so
poignant, they have not about
them the thrill and enthusiasm
OF youth which can be experien-
ced at only one stage in the ex-
istence of the individual. There
fore the greatest joys of Christ
mas are sacred to the little chill
dren, and it is entirely meet and
proper that this should be true
about a day which is to commem-
crate the advent upon earth of a
Child = the mighty founder of
Day. whose influence
ever widening is destined finally
to control all humanity.
That some children are depriv- ,
ed OF the joys of Christmas Morn
is one of the tragedies of exis- {
tence. Christmas more than all ,
else should mean charity. In this q
tits entirely possible !
that there are children whose :
hearts will not beat higher this a
morning, whose anticipations and \
lopes have come to naught, whose q
disappointment is more keen be- "
ause OF the contrast between ;,
heir lot and the lot of more = =
children. IL
That person has most fitting j.
observed the spirit of Christ - .
las who has given, insofar as he n
she is able, to those whose pi
eed is greatest. =.
