WARNS HOUSEWIVES
AGAINST CHEMICALS
BY III. II. RARNARD.

There are two ways of preserving
fruit and vegetables. one method
sterilizes them by heat, the other
pickles them with chemicals. Some
states prohibit the sale of products
containing them although they do
not deny the housewife the right 10
use them if she is SO foolish as 10
prefer 10 use chemicals instead Of
care. Unfortunately many states, al
though they have pure food laws,
pay no attention 10 the use of pre-
servatives. And so IL is that at this
season of the year canning COM
pounds are widely advertised and
many women foolshly are per-
suaded 70 try them.
These compounds which usually
contain borax or boric acid. or sail
cylic acid. or some similar antisepuc
are not usually sold through the
stores. but by agents who find il easy
i'm two many cases to persuade the
housewife TO substitute a spoonful OF
chemical preservative for the care
full sterilization OF boiling water.
The agents for canning compounds
are very active this year. The de-
sire that every housewife has 10
save the perishable products of her
garden has made canning universal
industry and every woman a pros
pective customer. Do not allow any
agent 10 persuade YOU that he has
substitute for sterilization. 1t may be
possible TO preserve fruits and vege-
tables without tedious heating but
unless YOU are willing 20 eat food
containing such quantities Of chemi-
Gals that bacteria find IL an un-
wholesome place 20 live. YOU will re-
IL on the proven virtues OF boiling
water as the only safe and accept
ed method for preventing spoilage.

WOMEN WILL NEVER

PARIS, April 10 (By MaiD-
Whether British women smash all
English tradition and vote after the
war or not. France can never follow
England's example,
Votes for women is and must re-
main dead letter in france.
THE subject is as complicated as
it is simple" the United Press in
formant declared. THE simplicity
lies in the fact that France is vastly
Catholic. OF the country's 3S,000,OOO
inhabitants only one million are Pro
testants and 10000 are Jews. This
elaves about thirty-six and three

The republican government of
France in neither clerical nor anti
clerical. But clerical influence-the
influence once so all. powerful in
France-today makes practically no
Recognized part in the making of
French laws and the direction of pub
lie affairs. This situation dates from
the very beginning of the present
form OF government when the gov
eminent said to the church, we will
give you freedom and independence
but never occupy yourselves with
political questions That was a long
time ago. But today the clericals
have a strong desire to have polite
al influence. Their prepondering
sentiment is n favor of women suf-
frage.
French workers, as a rule, are
thinkers and men Of advanced ideas.
But French women-the ordinary
everyday French woman-do not
think with their husbands. They are
closely allied with the church. Thus
to literally throw the vote Of the
average woman of France would be
to reconstitute the political power
OF the church and weaken the founda-
tions of representative government.
