LETTER TO DISCONNECTED
WIVES,

kathleen Norris in Pictorial Review
1t will be a wonderful day for Am
olican womanhood when We begin to
measure our happiness by the things
we dare do without. rather than by
the things We accumulate. There
may have been great tales written of
uudiluted riches and success, but l
can not call one to mind. When we
think Of immortal stories we thing

Goriots' humble boarding house, Of

ITCHY, it is true, but l for one would
read them more devotedly if they had
done so.
And the moral Of that is, as "The
Duchess says, that you can not find
anything bigger or sWeeter than the
family group about the dining table,
the children at their mothers knee,
the simple, enduring love of man and
wife.
We can make the little house and
the little yard a paradise for the per-
sons living there. Whatever your
home is, it is a finer home than the

bodies is of infinitely less importance
than what you give their souls.

DEPORTATION OF BELGIANS.

There is no question that the sell
cure OF large numbers OF Belgians

STEVENSON AT THIRTY.

l do not think that in those early
days Stevenson appeared to any Of us
as specifically a genius, an exception
al man set apart for great accom-
pllahments. Indeed, had we been
solemnly assured that he would share
the honor, with only one or two pos
sible competitors, of being the fore
most English writer of the latter half
of the nineteenth century, We would
certainly have received the assurance
with a smile. What! Louis! so sim
pie, kindly, natural, so all around a
good fellow SO like all the rest O..
us, only nicer
And ! am quite sure that in his in
most heart at this period he could
never really have looked forward to
or expected the fame which later
came 20 him, and which grows and
expands rs time gives us the perspec-
tive wherewith to view 1t in all its
roundness and bigness and essential
simplicity. In fact, in introducins
himself to me he remarked simply
that he was "a writer chap, or hop
ed to be one.

Bob Stevenson amused himself by

smile: There sits Louis, as SNUG and
complacent as any old type de bour-
geois | have not the least doubt that
he fondly imagines that one OF these
days they will be publishing all of his
dinky, private corresppndence-' the
letters of IL. l.. SIN boards" And
Louis joined as heartily as anyone IN
the laugh which the sally raised Bob
at least did live to see the publication
of the "Nailima Letters" and ! have
often wondered If he remembered

MARIAN COL = FISHER
National Authority on the Subject of PURE
FOODS and the ART OF COOKING.

In an interview on baking powder
Marian Cole Fisher, Chautauqua lee
turer and at that time special chairman
of the Saint Paul Housewives League
and an active member, stated as fol-
lows;
Il find many, in fact, very many,
women Woefully uniformed on the sub
ject of baking powder, Evidently the
housewife does not appreciate the value
of baking powder in her kitchen and in
her baking, or she would have informed
herself. This is a subject that is quite
important.
"A great many of the housewives
today have followed their mothers or
grandmothers in the use of baking pow
der, which in some instances is a mis-
take. There has been Just as much inn
provement in baking powder as in other
commodities ] am glad to find that
baking powder has kept up with the
times.
some housewives have been led to
believe that the cream of tartar pow
ders are the best goods to use. This is n
mistake, resulting no doubt from the
constant efforts of the Twenty Million
Dollar Baking Powder Trust to create a
prejudice against all goods save their
own. Their goods should be least de-
sirable on account of the large uuanti-
ties of Rochelle Salts remaining in the
food,
THE other extreme is the CHEAP and
Big Can baking powders. which sell
all the way from ten cents pound to

cent an ounce. These are even less de-
sirable than the high-priced goods,
can say nothing in their favor. Ihey
are never economical; frequently leaV-
ing the baking bleaehed and acid; some
times yellow and alkaline, and often
unpalatable. They are not dependaDle
and represent false economy at any
price
THE most simple way for the house
wife to class baking powder Is by price
The trust goods that retail for Acc OF
see pound are usually the cream OF
tartar powders, and are of the ol9
school; and the cheap and Big Can
kind that sell all the way from IUc
pound up to a cent an ounce shouiu
also be avoided.
The last word in baking powder -
the happy medium, a combination pow
der that sells at a moderate price anu
when properly prepared gives the COZ con
sumer full value for the money: lHo
result in baking is pure, wholesome
food, without any harmful resldulee,
There is no reason why any houseM ~,
should pay 45c or soc per pound. Ino
best baking powder made can be manu-
featured so as to retail at about Il 'h's
price"
On being asked what baking power
she used in her work, Marian Colo
Fisher frankly stated that for nole
than seven years she had used Calumet
Baking Powder with the most satisl@'-
tory results in every particular. =

Safe Home Treatment
for Objectionable Hairs

The electric needle is not required
for the removal Of hair or fuzz, for
with the use of plain deatone the
most stubborn growth can be quickly
banished. A paste is made with water
and little Of the powder, then spread
over the hairy surface. In about 2
minutes it is rubbed off and the skin
washed. This simple treatment not
only removes the hair, but leaves the
skin free from blemish. BE sure
you get genuine delatone.
