and how he had insisted, that as
he had no boys his girl should be
given the same advantages as they,
and her accounts Of early school days
among all of these boys, was most
amusing. She is now in America
studying surgery, and when she finish
es this year, will go back to her
country, and lift the barrier from
the door of the women of her native
land.
General" Mary Jones was a COM
plete surprise to many of the dele
gates, who expected to see another
person entirely, Judging by her title,
than the pretty little Miss that was
called upon to give her views on
women voting and suffragism.
General Jones related some very
clever incidents in her work in this
line, much to the enjoyment of her
audience, and Mrs. Martin says
that on this subject of women
voting, all the women seemed to be
of one accord, only three nays
given out of the entire meeting.
Miss Jane Adams told clever
story, of how at one time man
came to her to ask her Just how to
make out a ballot, he being an
amateur at casting a vote. After
much explanation, on the part of
Miss Adams, in getting it all clear
in the mind of her questionCr, going
over the ballot with care, and bring
out the importance of the vote, she
casually remarked that she supposed
that he would support the cause of
the women in bringing about their
rights to vote. The man looked at
Miss Adams in great establishment
and quickly replied, ooh no, indeed,
women have not mind enough"
Tho other questions of the biennial
centered on the civic work, child
labr, and reasonable working hours,
which are all great problems the
women of the world are dcvoting 40
much time and combined efforts in
bringing to the notice of the public,
and securing their assistance in cor
rccting the evils of these subjects.
Mrs Martin said that she could
talk for hours on the interesting
work of the women, and various
events of the convention, but time
limited her, and she will continue
her talk at future meeting of the
Wednesday Club.
At the close Of Mrs. Martins
report, Mrs. Walter Cobb, gave an
outline Of the program for the COM
ing year, which met the approval of
the members who were present

Hot Weather Advice.

While pork, red meats and heavy
food, especially fried food of all
kinds, should be avoided, it is we'll
to remember that the heat produces
weakness and that the body should
have plenty of food to offset this.
1t should be white meat, such as
chicken, lamb or other meat of the
kind and plenty of vegetables, In
fact with chicken almost prohibitivc
because of the price, vegetables and
milk can take the place of meat
altogether. Beware of too much Of
the iced drink.

Without question the talk given
by Mrs. W. W. Martin, Wednesday,
afternoon at the meeting Of the We'd
ncsday Club, in her report on the
Biennial of the General Federation
of Womcn's Clubs, was so interesting
that the members left the meeting
yesterday, loud in their praise Of
their selection as delegate to the
convention which was held June Q
to 10Th. Mrs. Martin commenced
her report with the statement at
what to her seemed particular
feature of the session, the perfect
union and harmony which was pre-
valent throughout the entire meet
ing, 1t was the means of bringing
together some wonderful women from
all parts of the world, $4,000 being
present, and our representative spoke
high in compliment of the Fedora
tons president, Mrs. Pcnnybackcr
of Texas, who is held in such esteem
by the clubs of the country, that
one member in speaking of her sug-,
gcstcd that should Mrs. Pcnnyback-
cr be sent to Canada as q part of
the Peace Conference, the matter
would have been settled some time
ago.
Her ability as an executive is her
strong point, and the manner in which
she has conducted the affairs of the
Clubs, has won her the support of
the entire country.
Another notittab part Of the con-
vention, says Mrs. Martin, was in
strict obedience to the parliamentary
rules. As soon as each speaker was
given the signal to end her talk,
she did so without comment, One
man though, from Wisconsin endcav-
orcd to continue his discourse after
having been told to stop, and his
breaking of the rules brought clapping
from the $4,000 delegates.
1t was noticed how little of art
and literature was discussed, except
in connection with the children of
the day and their school work. and
Ella Flagg Young gave q splendid
talk on these subjects.
One Chinese delegate gave a very
account of the women
in her country, and told how in her
young days, her father was school
teacher with only boys attending
his classes, no girls being permitted,

On next Tuesday, the Ladies of

meet at the home of Mrs. l.. b.
Houck, on College Hill As many
Of the members as possible arereques,-
ed to be present, as this is the meet
ing at which all the ladies will turn
in the dollar they are supposed to
have earned themselves, at some
time during the year.
This was quite novel way of
raising a fund, requiring each menu
Der to earn this dollar in any manner
she desired, and was given one year
to do it in. About 100 ladies are
expected to be present.
The young folks had a Jolly time
at the dance given at the Club House
Friday night. The music was so
catchy even the warm weather did
not prevent the boys and girls from
dancing to their hearts content, and
the cool breezcs on the veranda af-
forded them ample time to rest be-
tween each number Among those
enjoying the evening were: Messrs
and Mesdames Palmer Oliver, Allen
Oliver, W. $. Albert Mcsdamcs
Frank Carmack, p. b. Lcming, Misses
Marie Weber, Ruth and Sarah Glenn,

A meeting was held Thursday even
ing of the committee who have charge
of the raising of the necessary funds,
for the Public Library.
At this meeting the subject was
brought up that, should the Library
be assured, and the needed improve
ments be made in the present build
ing as they planned how will
the work be carried on after the
first start has been made. 1t would
hardly be worth while to go to this
expense, unless the future of the
Library be looked into and the fnan-
cial end assured, so the committee
in charge with Mrs. W. II. Harrison
as chairman, have decided to secure
the names of at Leaf $50 of the
$50 names of women supporters in
this work, to agree to contribute
SO cents a year, for the upkcep of
the reading rooms, etc.
This plan, backed by so much en-
enlargement, seems reasonable enough,
and certainly is a small sum to ask
in comparison to the great amount
of good that will be done through
these contributions. However, should
this procedure be successful, the funds
by the first subscription,
that were to have been used on the
building will be refunded.
The Cape, like every other pro-
gressive city, needs library, SO
let every one do their share in put
ling our city on the level with the
other progressive towns of Missouri, |
who are already Boosting of their
Public Libraries.

about a man who has been sleeping

The man takes very good care of

ing over and drawing his knee up
and going through all sorts of aero

the business of getting out of bed.
His queer actions interested the en-
