Dining Cars to Return to
the A La Carte system

On dining cars the a la carte
meal is coming back into its own
soon after the first of the year, 1t
is said that the regular meal plan
did not prove to be popular with
the travelling public. The conten-
ton was that only a few of the
travellers cared for full meal, much
preferring to pick the articles of
food from the menu card and then
pay for what was ordered.
With restrictions removed in the
matter of food, railroad officials
have concluded to recognize the
demands of the public and as a re-
suit the regular meal is to go.

Daisy Cordier Nellis, who is ap-

Sacrificing everything for her
music, this attractive young pianiste

art, as she began her studies at the
age of 5. Miss Nellis is former
Kansas City girl, leaving her home

engagements, but eager to bring
pleasure to as many as possible, she
has chosen the vaudeville stage for
the time.

The Food Budget for 1917

1t has been very hard, indeed, i'll
the past year to make any definite
plans for the amount of money to
be spent on food, for we have been
sailing all uncharted sea. A study
of 1917 bills was a help, of course,
but prices have scared beyond what
any of us ever imagined. | imagine
that we have passed the zenith now
and that prices will scarcely go any
higher, though they may stay
at their skyward level for time.
Hence we can make definite plans
as to how much must be allowed for
food in the coming year.
The food budget is but part of a
household budget, but it is a part
that has assumed undue proportions.
We must have a certain amount OF
food-that fact is granted. We are
accustomed to certain type of
food. Your type is not quite like
your neighbours. 1t may cost more
or it may cost less. But whatever
it cost formerly it cost you great
deal more in the last few years. Per-
haps you sighed at the increase and
let it 60 at that. No doubt you used
what you had even more carefully
than ever before. But did you alter
at all the kind of food you had al
ways had? beyond certain amount
of conservation, of course). | asked
a class of mine recently how many OF
them ever had a meat substitute,
except fish, on the home dinner ia
BILE. Only one hand was raised. Yet
we all exclaim at the high cost OF
meat.

My THE WOMEN OF CALI FORNlA
BELIEVE In THE BALLOT FOR WOMEN

ableness of suffrage for men.
Women have found that it does moi
in the least interfere with Their
womanliness to vote.
Women have found that voting
does not make them either more or
less attractive to men. 1t is as much
a matter of course as going to church
with men, or to the theatre, or to
BUSINESS, or walking down the street
with their husbands or fathers or
brothers. 1t seems silly to us now
that anybody imagined it would seri-
ous,y AFFECT our rcls tons with men,
or our respect for them or theirs for
us.
And women have found thet the
ballot is not weapon for the icE'-
mt ard virious, but it is a rational
m1lh exercise for the decent wc'
men of the community.
Those who said that all the bad
women would vote. and that good wo
men would not, didn't know what
they were talking about.--Nothing OF
the kind has happened The fact is
that the ballot interests the thought
full and moral woman more than it in
terestts either her frivolous or fallen
sister. So far as women are concern
ed, ignorance has shown no appetite
for the ballot, but intelligence has
made general use of 1t.
The South need not fear that the
ballot will make matters worse for
either intelligent men or intelligent
women. 1t will not. Both sense and
virtue will gain when the women are
allowed to vote.

lives of several thousand person of the

Bolsheviki and captured that city on
May 10. These people had been held
as hostages by the Bolsheviki. The
suddenness with which the Lettish
yeomanry captured the city in a half
hour rush prevented the Bolshe
Wiki from numbering them. Only in
one large central prison outside the
city where the Let's were ten minu-
ties late did the BOlsheviki have time
to kill more than 100 educated per-
sons.

We advise that when you take your

green and burnt tobacco from your
bright leaf tobacco, putting the green
in one pile, aburnt in one, and your
bright leaf tobacco in still another.
Because of the scarcity of labor at
THE tobacco factories the company's
are refusing to handle even good to-
baccos when mixed with green and
burn at any reasonable price Bright
leaf tobacco when arranged as above
advised, it bringing a good price,
ranging from 20 to As cents. You
should, of course, not pull any green
tobacco, but try to gather it when it
is exactly right. Burnt tobaccocs do
not weigh but small amount any
way, and you will loose very little by
separating it from the brigh leaves.
Keep your tobacco at home until
the rain is over, and when the sun
does shine, and the rain ceases, if
your tobacco is soft or in high case,
tie it up in bundles of about fifty
leaves, straddle it over your sticks,
put 1t back in your barn. run your
heat up not higher than 95 degrees
and hold it there until your tobacco
gets in proper condition to handle.
Do not bring tobacco to the ware
