4 starch Recipe,

For summer dresses and childrcn's
frocks starch must be very carefully
made; otherwise II stains the delicate
fabrics and leaves a sediment which Is
not detected until il is honed into tho
goods. But homemade starch will be
found very satisfactory. Put two heaping
tablespoonful of starch into large
basin, pour over it half pint of cold
water. stir the mixture well with a
wooden spoon until 1t is smooth and free
from all Jumps. then take the basin to
the fire and pour some boiling water over
the starch. stirring constantly II the
water Is boiling the starch will need
no other cooking. as il will thicken to
the right consistency. but if it refuses to
thicken. then turn it into a clean sauce
pan and hoil up once. Take II off the
fIe, strain it through a cheesecloth bag
into a clean basin. cover II to prevent
skim forming on top. and when it is
cool enough to touch starch the ear
ments. To keep the iron from sticking
and give a gloss to the articles ironed
a wax candle may be stirred around
three or four times in the starchy mix
ture before il cools.

FAMOUS WOMAN, HER

By MARY MARSHALL.
May 16-EEzabeth Peabody

1t is to Elizabeth Peabody. who was
born Ill years ago today, that the credit
belongs Of introducing the kindergarten
system into the United States. And 1t
has been said that to her lit was not
craft but q religion, not an avocation
but a vocation from on high" Elizabeth
Peabody was the daughter Of dentist
of Billerica. Mass. and the oldest OF the
remarkable Peabody family. to which be-
longed Sophia Peabody. wife OF the nov
eIist. Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Mary
Peabody. who married the famous edu-
Gator Horace Mann. There were also
two brothers in this family and they
were all strangely imbued with intellec-
tual tastes, SO that as q reviewer put 1t,
nothing OF importance in literature. art,
or the philosophy of education escaped
them once it had been brought to their
attention"
Until Elizabeth Peabody was Is she
lived in Salem. where she had received
good education and taught school for
several years. Later she went to Bos-
ton. where. when she was IS, she opened
a private school and later established q
publishing house of her own, being one
Of the first women to enter into a bust
ness usually confined to the activities
Of men. In Boston she took part in the
intellectual life around her and was one
OF the first to take an interest in the
Brook Farm movement. She was one OF
the founders OF the Concord Summer
School Of Philosophy. But her greatest
contribution to American thought and
progress was the introduction Of the
kindersarten system to this country in
1851 In 1853 she went to Europe to study
educational principles and returned even
more enthusiastic over the German sys-
TEN Of education for the young.
Elizabeth Peabody never married. but
through her life she took an active in

She was a friend OF Nathaniel Haw

Feminist MOVE

Chairman Organizing Committee. Pennsylvania AS
ISOLATION Opposed to Woman Suffrage.
What is feminism? This simple ques-
ton. put to the first dozen persons you
meet, will get approximately that many
answers. We have heard many pro-
fessed feminists deliver long discourses
regarding the definition Of this move
ment. without ever putting into pam
language what feminism Is. The oest
explanation We have noticed Is the Iol-
lowing. from one of our great metropoh-
tan newspapers. in answer to a query:
'Femnism Is the doctrine OF the So
cial. legal and political equality OF the
sexes. II aims to remove all restrictions.
qualifications and privileges based on sex.
Its chief present purpose toward TINS
end is the attainment Of votes ior
women"
Where Did Idea Originate:
No matter how far YOU go YOUR
answers to this question will not wander
to a great extent from this dehnition
AS to when and where ''feminism be-
gan. hardly two persons will agree; the
word itself is of French derivation. and
a recent book review claims that isolat-
ed use of it has been observed in docu-
ments over fifty years old. But it Is
only recently that feminism as distinct
doctrine. embracing three well known and
much advertised demands-''thc elimina-
ton OF SEX economic independence
and votes for women"-has become an
issue of much public concern.
AS TO the first feminist. she is being
discovered" every little while to have
made her debut at various periods since
100 b. G.: the first "anti-suffraGc" con-
demna ton OF feminist" doctrine being
contained in .Aristophanes' Parliament OF
