DAUGHTERS OF THE
 AMERICAN REVOLUTION

The Daughters of the American their annual Continental Congress at Washington, are a little outside of the ordinaty run of women's societies. The early days of the women's club move ment seemed to run more into the line of study and investigation. The most recondite poets, philosophers, and economists were analysed and debat- ed.
 Of late years the women's club movement has followed more into lines of social effort. It has been realized that mere information counts but little, that what is needed is eff fort for social and moral betterment In many a town the WOman's Club is now the most active civic force.
 During these years, the D. A. R.'s have been going their own way in in- dividual manner. At first they seem ed mostly engaged in contemplating the glory of their historic ancestors incidentally baskfng in whatever lus- ter might be reflected therefronh Of late years they have undertaken a line of patriotic effort, consisting of a campaign instruction of alien resi- dents in citizenship and American life. Their classes and lectures have been one of the most important forces to help these bewildered newcomers find themselves in a strange land.
 The gatherings of the D. A. R. or ganiZation have been interesting and unusual. They have had hot con tests for election of their officers, and much acrimony has developed, giving the reporters mnch picturesque copy. The fighting blood of their sires seem ed to come down to these twentieth century women, giving them ability in controversy, and disposition to stand up and battle for their personal rights.
 An organization like this will be lseful in these days of national con- f1ict. These women will not go home asking the American people to let any foreign king put his foot on their 1ecks. They will find the field of I'atTiotic endeavor wide open, with 2. hundred lines in which the work of women needs to be simplified and systematized, and made effective to- ward the end of winning this war.

TODAY'S POEM
SEA FEVER.

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by, And the wheels kick and the winds song and the white sails shaking, And a gray mist on the seas face and gray dawn breaking. must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a. clear call that may not be denied; And all ask is windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the seagulls crying. must down to the seas again to the vagrant gypsy life, To the gulIS way and the whales way where the winds like a Whetted knife;
 And. all ask is merry yarn from a laughing fellow rover, And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long tricks over

AFTER THE FIRST WRONG STEI
''The wretch whom pity fails to bind To honor-let him lay no claim, But stand confessed the brute dis
 guiSed in man.

i The wretch whom pity fails to bind To honor-let him lay no claim, But stand confessed the brute dis guised in man.
 Love has much to account for. If all goes well 1t brings joy to lives. If I Ill tbefalls it turns happiness to hate. It Is always the woman who suffers when confidence has been misplaced and the bulwark of innocence has been beaten down. After the first horrible awakening of a girl that she has been deceived comes the thought what shall she do with her life now? She Is feaMul that she will never again te able to look an honest woman in the face. She feels a sciousness that the world knows all about her.
 Where one girl cries out in her in- nermost heart, "I will turn over a new leaf," many another says with a hard ened laugh, Whats the use? Nothing can ever paint the soiled lily white again"
 This depends on which point of view such girl takes. While loves mis- take is to be deplored it can be atom ed for and blurred even though it may not be wholly erased from life's pages. She who has made an error should not hope that the continuance of folly will bring to her the love she craveA It's a mans way to dislike actually the woman who has loved not wisely but too well. He may f1atter her still, but she is the last woman he would lead to the altar and make his wife. The first step in the wrong di- recton for a girl is to keep up the acquaintance of the man who has proved not true lover, but a treach- erous foe to her in her innocence. One such experience opens a. girls eyes wide for all time.
 It rests with her whether she will make good in the path she chooses or slide so far down the slippery way that there's no returning. She has her future in her own hands. Sse is face to face with life's gravity. If she shuns the man who has caused her the first false step, steadfastly re- fusing his overtures of friendship without marriage, nlan-like, he may repent of his folly. Pity for her may awaken in him sense of justice and a willingness to make reparation. Con- tinuing his acquaintance under an other condition is a menace.
 The girl whose relatives and friends have not turned her down has not so much of a struggle. She has sympathy; she has love. These re- light the lamps of hope. It is the poor dependent girl struggling to make her own livelihood upon whom folly's blow falls the hardest. It is she who must steel herself to face Hfe's battle anew. Employment is then the greatest boon- It helps her to live and learn to forget. Time heals even the greatest wounds. Be- cause she has at one time entered the wrong door to love it does not follow that in the years to come if she is

s.THE MAID OF KENT.~

It was on the goth of April, in 15s4
 that Elizabeth Barton, known all over England as '-the holy maid of Kent, '' was beheaded at Tyburn for having interfered with the matrimonial af- fairs of the monarch, Henry VIII
 Elizabeth was subject to epilepsy
 and heard voices and saw visions
 which she interpreted as divine reve- ladons- All England was then ex- cited by the attempt of King Henry to divorce Queen Catherine, the first of his six spouses, and the Maid of Kent, whose '+revelations'' denounced such action, added to the general frenzy. The chapel at Arlington be- came a shrine for multitudes of pill grinss, who listened to the epi1eptic mouth1ngs of the Maid as to divine wisdom She predicted that the King would die within seven months if he divorced the Queen. and Henry, en- ragged, ordered her head chopped off. The Maids prophetic ability was somewhat discounted by the fact that Henry lived to enjoy many diyorces.

 Eager enough, Shannon hastened away on his midnight errand. Within an hour every man of the little party was at the water front, ready for de parture. They found their leader walk ing up and down, his head bent, his hands behind him.
 It was short work enough, the com pletion of such plans as remained un- finished. The great keel boat lay com pleted and equipped at the wharf. The men lost little time in slowing such ped. Shannon stepped to his chief.
 "Alls aboard, sir" said he. Shall we cast off?"
 Without a word Lewis nodded and made his way to his place in the boat. In the darkness, without a shout or a cheer to mark its passing, the expedi- tion was launched on it's long journey. Slowly the boat passed along the wa ter front of Pittsburgh town. Here rose gauntly in the glare of torch or campfire the mast of some half built schooner. Houseboats were drawn up or anchored along shore, long pirogues lay moored or beached, or now and again giant broadhern, already par tially loaded with household goods.

A delicious way of serving caul- flower is to boil 1t until tender, as usual putting 1t into boiling salted water, having washed it we'll first and broken it into small even pieces. When soft, drain of the water and put the, pieces of caulihower in bak- ing dish. Pour in one cup or so (that depends, of course, on the amount of caulihower) of white sauce. Cover the top with layer of cracker spoons of grated cheese and again with another layer of cracker crumbs. Dust this over with salt and paprika and scatter a few bits of butter over the top.
