WASHING WOODEN Goods.

To wash wooden goods successfully
the water Should be soft md warm,
not hot. and of uniform temperature
throughout the operation. Never put
soap directly on the fabric, and use
only the milder- kinds. Make nice
suds before putting the garment in the
water. Scrub gently and wiring
through loosely set wringers. Once
washed. the goods should be immedi.
atcly hung up TO dry and never allow
ed to lie about wet. 1t is best to dry
woolems out OF doors If the air is dry
and the temperature above freezing.

A Republican Suffrage View

Woman suffrage is purely a state
matter Each state should be al
lowed to determine it for itself
And there is just one fair and
square way to determine it. and
that is to allow the women TO set
tie the dispute among themselves.
1t is a simple proposition for a
state to arrange for a referendum
from which all males would be eX-
cluded. We would favor such a
plan for Pennsylvania. But the
trouble is that the suffraGists them
selves do not favor it, which can
mean but one thing that they are
afraid they would be voted down
by majority Of their own sex.
But in any event. a Constitutions
al amendment cannot be justified,
it means coercion in states that do
not approve Of votes for women.

This series Of beds is more than

critic Of his campaign methods, and
it says Of hlm,
He behaves as a machine can

years ago, and required to deal
with the vast and perplexlnG prob

by William Barnes or Thomas C..

is now behaving. Also, when cleo
