May 26-Queen Mary Of England,
Susanna Shakespeare.

BY a strange coincidence Queen Mary
of England. the wife of George V, cele-
brates her birthday but two days after
the birthday of Queen Victoria. Queen
Mary is the daughter of cousin Of
Queen Victoria on the paternal side, so
that she Is a kinswoman Of the King
whom she married and her popularity
among her husbands subject Is due in
no small measure to the fact that she Is
thorough-going English woman and
allied to none OF the ruling families Of
the Continent. She was born forty-eight
years ago, and was married when she
was twenty-six to the King. who was
then twenty-eight.
Little is known Of the personality Of
Susanna Shakespeare, but she will al
ways be remembered as the oldest child
Of the poet Shakespeare. having been
born within six months of the marriage
of the bard Of Avon to Anne Hathaway.
who was eight years older than her hus-
band. The question of the happiness OF
Shakespeare's marriage has long been a
mooted one, and there will always be
biographers Of the poet who find evil
dence pointing to the fact that his mar
riage was a forced one, and that he
never dwelt happily with his wife. It is
a significant fact that In his will Shapes
peare left his wife no more than his
second best bed and furnishings" while
the largest amount OF his property he
left to Susanna, at that time Mistress
Hall. Her share of his beQuest was his
last residence at Stratford, called New
Place." all of his estate, and his lands
and harms and gardens and his home in
Blackfriars, London. and his plate.

Women in industry have been re-
ceiving the attention of the public
Now comes the problem of the unpaid
women in the homes.
Mrs Crystal Eastman Benedict, one
of the leaders of the Congressional
Union and the Woman's Peace Party
who has just gone to New York from
this city where she testified before the
Industrial Relations Commission, de-
clares there are millions of unpaid
wives and mothers, whose position In
the home is pitiful.
Mrs Benedict is a young woman
and an ardent partisan OF her sex.
Her eyes glowed with enthusiasm as
she talked
There are three factors which
make the conditions of wives and
mothers almost unbearable." she said
yesterday.
The first is the fact that the law
gives the wife the right Of support
only. 1t does not make her the eco-
nomic partner of her husband.
Homemakers' Wages.
the wife and mother has to exercise
in order to buy food and clothing for
the family and run the home ef-
ficiently should be recognized as pro-
ductive work. A living wage for q
man should INCLUDE his wife's
TOO many men have the notion that
they support their wives AS fact
there are only about 10 per cent of the
women of the country who do not sup
port themselves by their work in
caring for the home and children. 1t
will take legislation to disabuse the
minds of many men of this idea, SO
M iy,6I nta1 m sol
women. AS for the 10 per cent, their
husbands want them to be nothing but
puppets to serve as a sign of their
own financial success. These women
should be pitied, not blamed.
The second factor is the lack OF
proper education of girls. Both boys
and girls should know tho rudiments
of domestic science. but girls as we'll
as boys should be educated to support
themselves by means of some occupa-
ton or profession. Then the husband
will look upon his wife as one who
is capable of self-support and who
must be treated as an independent per-
son II the marriage partnership is to
be a success. Even the shop girls
get two weeks time off from their
work, but it is the idealistic husband
only who thinks his wife needs
vacation.
Right to Limit Family.
THE third factor is probably the
most vital-the lack of knowledge
which will enable woman to limit
her family to the number which her
health, strength and the family in
come can afford This is not as
radical as it seems The welfare of
the nation depends on the welfare Of
the individual child. And the chill
dren, as we'll as the mother, suffer
when there are too many mouths to
feed, too many bodies to be clothed
and tended and too many minds to
be given the attention that 10 not
merely a right but a necessity to the
proper development Of a child.
Beyond a certain limit to be de-
cided by the mother and father them
selves, every added child means low
ering the standard Of living Of the
family. lessening the vitality Of the
mother and making her UNIT to guard
and guide the destiny of the race"

FUNDAMENTALS OF CANNING.

Canned fruit is canned fruit-and
there you are. That is to say. il you are
successful in canning one sort of fruit
| you can be successful IN canning other
| kinds of fruit, for the principle underly-
| ing canned peaches is the same as that
underlying rhubarb conserve. and 1t is a
principle not difficult to understand and
observe.
The whole principle of canning is to
destroy the bacteria that cause decay.
These are destroyed by heat. So it is
necessary to subject everything with
which the fruit comes in contact to heat.
and it is safer to heat the fruit too.
The jars in which the fruit is packed
should be put into cold water and
brought to the boiling point. There they
should remain. or just below the boil
ing point, for three-quarters Of an hour.
Then everything in the way Of bac-
terra will be destroyed. Covers and rub
! bers. too. of course, must be subjected
to this heat And everything that Is
used in the shape Of knives or spoons
must also be dipped in boiling water be-
fore it is brought into contact with the
fruit
The cans and covers can be placed on
layer Of straw. on a rack that comes
for the purpose or on boards in the bot
tom Of a big boiler. They would. Of
course. break IL they came into direct
contact with the bottom of the boiler or
kettle in which they are heated.
After everything in which the fruit is
to be packed has been boiled for forty
minutes. the fruit, which has been
brought to the boiling point. should be
put in it. filled to the top. so that there
is no room for air. and sealed thoroughly.
Fruit canned in this way should keep
almost indefinitely. even without sugar.
Remove only one jar at time from
the water-the one you are using-for
bacteria from the air might in few
minutes destroy the sterilized condition
of the jars. Dip a silver knife In boiling
water. fill the jar full Of the hot fruit
and syrup. and with the knife press the
fruit in from the sides of the jar. to
allow any air bubbles to rise to the top.

whooped. Will / have to go through all
this again with her
II she has had cough she has prob
ably had light attack of the disease
which will make her immune from an
other experience. Some children have
the children's diseases much more light
ly than others.
Mrs. P. B. asks: ''What>wouh you ad-
wise me II do about child in my neigh
borhood who visits my children all the
time? She is here morning. noon. and
night. often when ii is very announcement.
| do not like to offend her mother by
sending her home"
l think i would risk that if were you.
Perhaps the mother leaves the child to
servants and docs not even know she Is
not at home. The next time she comes
and you do not want her try a gentle
suggestion that she run home and come
back at another time, which you set for
her. 1t often takes more patience to
teach your neighbours children than it
does your own.

Astrologers find the influences today ex-
ceedingiy unfortunate. Neptune Mars,
Uranus. and Venus are all in evil as
pect. Saturn alone is strongly benefic.
Owing to the evil sway of Neptune
ocean transportation is supposed to be
most dangerous while this configuratlon
prevails. The loss of an American snip
is prognosticated and its destruction will
cause national resentment and unrest.
The unfriendly power of Neptune Is
held to increase the inclination toward
deception. Fraud and Misrepresentation
will be more common than in the past
and scandals will multiply. The seers
warn men and women against the dupli-
city of friends well as foes.
While this configuration prevails, hos
pitfalls and public institutions are be-
lieved TO suffer. Danger of fires and con-
tasious diseases is said 10 be greatly
increased
Extreme care to keep homes and public
buildings in sanitary condition Is en-
Joined.
This is an unlucky aspect for FORM
Ing new partnerships or entering into
new associations of any sort.
Women are not fortunate while this
figure prevails. They are supposed to
be easily cajoled and unwisely ruled.
Mars is in a place that indicates the
growth OF the military spirit in certain
parts OF the United States. The seers
prophesy activity for the national guard
and sensational occurrence growing
out of preparation for coast defeases.
It Is not an suspicious time for begin
ming long Journeys. especially those that
lead Westward.
There is an aspect said to cause reck-
lessness in spending money. Warning
Is given against the increase of those
who neglect to pay their debts.
= Disgrace Of a minister or evangelist
is predicted. Religious controversies
will multiply as a result of q quicken
ing of interest in religious matters.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is may have
a troublesome year. ouarrels and law
suits are foreshadowed. Women should
guard against an inclination to pass too
much time in amusement.
Children born on this day may be
exceedingly self-willed and quick-temper-
ed. but they are likely to be bright and
industrious. Many of these Gemini sub
5ects have scientific minds and inventive
talent

LOVE COMES FROM DOING.

Did you ever stop and think that serv-
ice begets love? If you want to love a
person. just start in by doing something
for that person and love will come.
We speak of maternal love as IL it were
something apart and different from any
other form of love. born with the child
and peculiar to the physical mother. Ma
ternal love is largely service, the quick
response Of the mother to the child S
need of her. Adopted children are often
fondly loved and stepmothers, contrary
to the general opinion, are generally de-
voted to the children in their charge, es-
pecially il they come to them while
young and dependent on their care
A child is often more fond of its nurse
than of its mother because it has known
the close bond of comranionship.
Washing grubby little hands and
feeding hungry little stomachs and put
ting tired little bodies to bed is homely
service, but no woman can perform it
without loving the little hands and the
tired little bodies.
Nursemaids are careless. largely
through ignorance and lack of education
rarely so through lack of affection for
their charges. We see them talking to
the park policeman while BABY investi-
gates the nutritive quality of dirt. but We
see them also sitting up with a cross,
because the children have some need.
I think most mothers honestly admit
that there is more than wages due this
class of service.
/ have in mind a cantankerous. elderly
member of friends family who has al
ways seemed an annoyance and disturb
ing element to eVery member of it. Re-
Gently it was discovered not only that
the woman was threatened with a seH-
much curtailed. AS a matter of duty
the family got together and arranged to
provide the money and the comforts that
the old lady needed. The result was that
they all commenced to grow very fond Of
her and the peculiarities that had once
annoyed them began to appear as harm
less idiosyncrasies. From trying TO get
rid of the old lady and throwing the bur-
den of her occasional entertaining from
one to the other. different members OF
the family commenced TO take an inter-
est in her affairs and to vie with each
other in settling them for her.
Possibly a part of this curious change
of feeling was due to desire to play
fair. Poverty and dependence in old
age are sad, and people who have
learned the secret of right giving know
that a gift TO be acceptable must be
given with love and pleasure in the
giving.
But it all comes back to the same
sources you will grow to cAre for those
you serve.
1t is love for humanity that makes
much social work that would otherwise
seem intolerable bearable. In mind is
gifted young woman of a family rich
and socially prominent who, in one of
our slum neighborhoods. has established
kindergarten which she not only sup
ports. but personally runs. Her in
stinctive mother heart loves all these
little children, all of them poorly dressed
when they come to her in the morning,
many of them dirty, some diseased. many
