AUNT LANES ADVICE TO HOUSEWIVES ON
 SERVING SEA FOODS

Custom. which had for a basis sound principles of health and hy- giene, has made fish the Lenten food. This year, to those to whom the high price of meats and the rising prices of other food commodities, exclusive of sea foods, have for some months been a subject of serious consi idera- ton, the beginning of Lent on March 9th. affording a logical opportunity to serve more fish, comes as a welcome date.
 It is, of course, impossible to tell what the state of the fish market will be during Lent. for it is impossible for. anyone to forecast the weather, and it is chiefly upon the weather that the price of fresh salt water seq foods are dependent. Indications are, however. that the market will be very well supplied during the coming Lent and that the wholesale fresh fish price will be normal
 Should the reverse be the case-as in a, case of a prolonged spell of se- were weather-tIe housewife can still have recourse ito cold storage, salt or canned. sea foods. In fact, no matter what the state of the market ir would be well for her to. consider carefully the subject of cold storage 6sh, for this may enable her to pur- chase her table supply at a, cost con siderably less Than the fresh article.
 In preparing for her. Lenten meals, the housewife will find big collec- ton of fresh sea ftsI7es from which te caoose, and, if Sne will but add a bit of intelligent effort, will be, able to produce, at a small cost, all sorts Of surprises for her family.
 The list of Lenten fishes is a large one First. of course, because they are best known and sell everywhere at normal prices, come the ground fish, Under this generic name, the wholesaler groups the famous cod, the tasty and popular haddock, the in creasingly- popular pollock, Cor Bos- ton bIue6sh) the less we'll known {and in some Sections misunderstood hake, the almost unknown but de- Iicious cusIx, and the popular hahbut.
 Less, widely known fish at the dis pcsal of the housewife will be the skate or 4aie, squid and whiting.
 Among the other fish available will be butterf1sk, smelt, mackere1, sal- mon, red fish, eels, swordhsh. tuna fish and the shellhsh.
 For the housewife of average means all these varieties are in the market for of those the fresh supply Of which is practically ni1-Tswordhsh, butter fish and salmon for examp1e-there is a goodlY supply of the chilled article.
 In purchasing the fish, the house. wife should remember that pound of many varieties of fish will feed as many persons as IWACO IAAe1I O- most varieties of meat, most varieties of fish having a particularly high nu- tritive value.
 By little careful study of her local markets, the housewife should be able to keep track of the ductua- tions in the prices of the different va rieties of fresh fish, and take advan- tage of them. The habit of eating m ore fish, contracted during the Lent en season, should be one which. con tinued through the other seasons of the year, will add to the general health of her family, and materially decrease the cost of her table, which, in the meantime, should gain much by the charge.

Y. M. c. A. Physical
 Director Honored Among Japanese

Drank Brown, the national physical director of the Young Mems Christian associations for Japan, has just been chosen by the Japanese as execut1ye secretary for the Eastern Olympic which is to be held in Japan The na- lions competing in this Olympic are Japan, China. the Philippines and the Malay States It is a. peculiar and sig nidcant honor and recognition both of Ar.

The feel ing between the Japanese and foreign CTS in that country in regard to lead ership is very difficult, but this is one of the many ways in which America is establishing confidence with the Japanese in Japan, and many states men over there feel that it is one of the most vital influences in general ing that feeling of confidence between America. and Japan which would make war between our two nations quite improbable

 SUFFRAGE NEWS
(Mrs. Edward Porritt)

Since the visit of Mrs. Catt to Hart ford last Monday the attention of suffragists has largely been centered on the work of organizing the state in favor of the Susan B. Anthony amendment. This organization work is not really new as it consists in fact of much the same kind of ar rangement as the Connecticut Wo- man Suffrage Association has already made in preparation for the state referendum which the Sunragists ex- pect will take place in this state in 1919. To organize to win the Suffra- gists must wofk in just about the same way whether they aim at inn pressing Congressmen and getting the amendment through Congress and ratified by the States or if they aim at getting the amendment through the state legislature and ratified by the state legislatures.
 Many letters of enquiry have been sent in Suffrage Headquarters in Hartford concerning the charges brought by Mrs. Dodge against the Suffragists when she accused them of favorfng wild and immoral notions which she classed as fen1inisn. These charges were repeated by one of. the morning newspapers which is strongly opposed to woman suffrage and which with the cniyalry constant ly characteristic of the Anti is al- ways eager Ito believe the very worst of any women who advocate sone- thing with which it does not agree The chief enquiry is what publication has. been put out by suffragists which embodies any of the immoral ideas complained of. An authoritative answer to these enquiries has been made by the Editor of the National woman Suffrage Publishing Com pany. It is that there is not single publication issued by that company or by any association of suffragists as such which contains any such statement as Mrs. Dodge attributed to the Suffragists. Some wild radicals have published objectionable matter, and of these radicals some are in fa- vor of woman suffrage and some are strongly opposed to it. The suffra- gists as a body are no more respon- sibIe for such publications than the antis for the utterances of the advo- cates of child labor or of the liquor interests. These advocates are all against woman suffrage, but suffra- gists do not for that reason hold the National Association Opposed to Wo- man Suffrage responsible for 3>the things that they may write on all sorts of subject which have nothing to do with votes for women. The Suffra- gists challenge Mrs. Dodge to give fair Quotations-not garbled-from any real suffrage literature which would afford any basis for the unfair charg- es that she made in a recent number of the Protest and which have been quoted with approval by certain in this state.

TODAY'S POEM
TO LUCAsrA, FROM THE WARS.

Perusing the epistles I devotedly in
 dite
 You long, I know, Lucasta dear, to see me as I write; Your fancy paints my portrait framed
 in hectic scenes of war I'll try to show you briefly what my
 circumstances are. Your swain is now a trogIodyte; as in a dungeon deep He who so worShipped stars and YOU
 must write and eat and sleep; Like some swart djirnee of the mine your sunshine-loving slave Builds airy castles, meet for two, meath candles in a cave. Above, the sky is very gray. the world is very damp, His light the sun denies by day, the
 moon by night her lamp; Across the landscape soaked and sad the dull guns answer back, And through the twiIight's futile hush spasmodic rifles crack. The papers haven't come today to show how England feels; The hours go lame and 1anguid1y be- tween our Spartan meals; We've written letters till we're tired, with not a thing to tell Except that nothing's doing, weath- beastly, writer well. So when you feel for us out here-as well I know you will Then sympathize with thousands for their country sitting still; Don't picture battle pieces by the lu- rid Press adored, But miles and miles of Britishers, in
 burrows, badly bored.

AN INDIsCREET YOUNG GIRL

K. M. states: T met a nice youth of 19 last summer without my parents permission. I met him away from home. Decided not to let mother know much of him. We were engaged to wed Christmas He wrote, being away, that he could stand by absence no longer, so I went to him. We had second tilt and made up. He was fighty- I could not give him up. But he asked me to postpone the wedding. I was only just past 15, so I did. He cared only for me, he declared. asked him to get acquainted with my folks. He refused. dropped him yet cannot forget him. Do you advise me to return a gift have of his?''
 You are by far too young even to think of a lover without your parents' permission It is easier to forget a man who roanfs and postpones the wedding than you imagine. Later on you will do finely. Be glad you have good parents and a, home where others may visit you.
