Kitchen Cabinet Too Handy.

The kitchen cabinet must be sani-
tarily made, SO as to exclude mice
and vermin of all kinds, write Lionel
Robertson and 7. G. O'Donnell in Good
Health. Carelessly used, however, the
kitchen cabinet is open to this objec-
ton, that it is too convenient. That is
to say, it's various drawers and rccep-
tacles are apt to become a catch-all
in which will be thrown a ball Of
string and a nutmeg or two and box
of toothpicks and any number of other
odds and ends; it is seldom cleaned,
with the result that dirt accumulates
and the real end of the cabinet, health
fulncss, is defeated. Every part of the
cabinet should be given thorough and
frequent cleansing.

elsewhere. Nearly S1.O00,O00 was rails

war this method of raising money was

WOMAN IS SUCCEEDING
IN MANY POSITIONS

We often read in the daily and
weekly and monthly papers about
woman coming into her own. She
is accused of taking mans place
and mans position away from him,
and many other horrible crimes
equally as bad.
Just where man must lay down
his work for it to be taken up by
woman is hard to designate. Woman
is making good in many positions
today that were considered entirely
out of reach of her sex few short
years ago.
In positions of trust woman is
measuring up to all requirements to
greater degree than man. She
makes fewer mistakes and has a
higher sense of honor than most
men
When placed in charge of the
property of others woman has sell
dom been found wanting. She has
measured up to such high stand
ard that today she IS considered pre-
eminently a success as mans equal
anywhere that real .act and business
Judgment are required. We seem to
be fast approaching the time de-
pictcd in the following verse by
Kate Fields:
''ThlS talk about voman's sphere,
as though it had a limit.
| Why. there's not a Hlacc, in earth
| or heaven, there's not 4 task 10
| mankind given.
There's not blessing or Il woe
there's not a whispered yes or no
Thcre, not life, or death, or birth
there's not feathers weight OF
worth,
Without woman in it,"

Miss Flynn, in Disguise,
InpQdeS Paterson in Vain
Clothed in Garments of Woman Friends, She res to Kun
Cantlet to Speak in Hall but Detectives

Free Speech League, and Carlo Tresca
could not give any assistance. They
had been picked out of the crowd by
detectives whwo jumped from build
inc near the railroad station and
warned them that they were not to
attempt to attend the mass meeting.
"What do you have to say in Pater-
son TO get arrested?" demanded Mary
Austin Of the imperturbable detectives.
"What did Elizabeth Gurley Flynn say
when she was here? II | knew what IT
was I'd say it, because I'd love to get
arrested" There were no arrests.
After an argument with the owner OF
the hall over payment OF the rent the
women held their meeting, with Mrs.
Marion B. Cothren presiding. In the
absence of Miss Flynn her speech was
read by the chairman. 1t was gem
eral plea for free speech. for which our
forefathers fought and bled and died.
Every woman who had gone to test
the Paterson police made speech, in
cluding Eva Ward, chairman Of the
press bureau for the New Jersey suf-
fragists; Lou Rogers, suffragist car
toonist; Dr. Mary EQui Of Portland,
Ore; Miss Viva Flaherty. secretary to
the Rev. John Haynes Holmes; Maud
Malone, Mary Austin, Sarah Addlngton,
Henrietta Rodman. Mrs. Bessie Bruere,
Rose Carpenter and Katherine Leckie.
They addressed an audience Of four
hundred, which jeered the Paterson
police at every opportunity. A resolu-
tion of protest, to be forwarded to
President Wilson, was passed after all
the women in the invading party had
signed it.
"Just think" said Mrs. Cothren, the
chairman, "the President granted an
audience to Miss Flynn and Mrs. j.
Sergeant Cram on committing the sem
tence Of Joseph Hillstrom, convicted OF
murder in Salt Lake City. And here the
Paterson police won't let her talk at a
meeting"
"Disgracefull" echoed the chorus as
they started for the station to catch
the 1920 train for Manhattan.
"Henceforth | shall make my abode
in Paterson" Miss Flynn announced
when she arrived in this city last night,
fresh from her defeat at the hands OF
the Paterson police. 81 shall cease to
agitate from the outside, but you may
look for me to do plenty Of agitating
from the inside after get settled out
there"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-11-12

Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, supported
by q group Of Manhattan women known
for their radical views and their devo-
ton to suffrage, had one Of her strug-
giles with the police Of Paterson, n. j.,
last night. They went there to protest
in the name Of free speech against the
expulsion Of Miss Flynn from Paterson
on a former speech making occasion.
Going out on the train Miss Flynn's
companions had donated various ar
ticles of their apparel, all for the pur-
pose Of helping her run successfully
the gantlet Of Paterson police observa-
ton. She borrowed coat from Ger
trude Marion Williams, a hat from
Rose Carpenter, Mary Austin, the nov
elist, parted with set of furs, and, to
make the disguise complete, Miss Flynn
had a large muff, in which she buried
her face.
Thus attired and surrounded bv a
cohort Of friends, the girl, who has
been officially barred from making
speeches in Paterson, started to run up
the stairway of Institute Hall, in Eli
son Street.
"Ah, there, Miss Flynn! No you
dont!" said Captain Of Detectives
Tracey as he charged into the group
and took her by the arm. you're not
going into the hall tonight and you
know it,"
Miss Flynn and twenty-five others
demanded in one chorus to know why.
"She can't go in" replied Tracey
am not here to argue with you. Them's
my orders, and l shall stick by them"
Six big detectives blocked the stair
way effectually every time Miss Flynn
gave indications of starting to defy
the law. One of the women suggested
that they call on Mayor Fordyce. He's
out of town." said Tracey. They would
complain to Chief Bimson against this
outrage. Hes sick in bed" said
Tracey.
