To Be Healthy, Girls Must
 Indulge In Athletics
In m Interview ith n Physical Instructor)

What girl does not long to be the possessor of q good healthy skin' bright eyes, a good figure and have a thorough feeling of the joy of living? In tho opinion of ono of the foremost athletic directors in the city, Mrs. Mary l.. Stacl6poie, of the Y. w. C. A. the ever-absorbinR question Is solved and the young woman who desires to be attractive. healthy and strong can be SO by indulginE in athletic activi- ties. the simplest and most enjoyable of all remedies.
 The athletic girl has finally come to the foreground. bringing with her a judicious and practical system of mind and body development, crowd ing and stamping out the cosmetic advocant.
 No doubt the average girl busily occupied by her daily tasks fails to realize the seriousness of her exist ence without the necessary allotment of her time to phys:csl culture. Mod crn inventions in one way or another are a hindrance to her natural beauty.
 There is no question the life we arc living now Is the right kind of life" said Mrs Stackpole in an inter- view. 'wo ride in trolley cars to work, sit at desks all day long. and get pleasure out of a rocking chair in the evening on the front porch. And that is why we see so many sunken eyes. painted and powdered checks and listlcss and expressionlcss faces.
 "A girl should reserve as much of her time for physical culture as she puts in for her daily bread and but ter. For it would mean no head aches. no sickness, no tired feelings. but on the other hand all the neces- sary elements of bringing joy into living"

If diarrhoea attacks the baby, the milk should be pasteurized after 1t is modified.
 According to the age and size of the baby is the quantity of each feed ing determined The baby that weighs at birth pounds and 22 pounds at one year should be led about as follows according to ages daily amount and way to be dividedss
 First week 15 ounces 2 feedings, End to 4th week 20 ounces feelings. 4th to 10th week 25 ounces T feed-= ings,3 3rd month to 9th month 50 ounces feelings, 9th to sth month. 35 ounces 6 feedings, 8th month to 18th month 40 ounces feedings.
 Babies should never be fed during the night. It disturbs their rest as we'll as that of the mother or nurse and 1t Is unnecessary.
 Very large children with strong di-s gestion may have a. little more than. the quantities specified but not often- CT. Smaller babies with weak -dlges-s tion will not be able to eat so much but will require the same number of feedings.
 Whole milk. dried to powder. can now be obtained and should be much safer than the average dairy. milk as 1t is sterilized by the process. of manufacture. s

WILL NOT TAKE
 REFUSAL TO CALI. SESSION FINAL
Suffragists Continue Work Despite Governors
 Action.
ANNIE G. PORRITT.)

The refusal of Governor Holcomb to call a, special session of the Leg1s- lature for the ratifca ton of the Fed eral Suffrage Amendment is not taken by the Suffragi as final. Work for the special session will con- tinue as though no such answer had been recieved, and 1t is felt that the logic of events will soon convince the Governor that there is an emergency calling for such special session.
 Ratification has been proceeding rapidly since the amendment was passed by the Senate at Washington on June 4th. In the month between
 June 4th and July 4th, eleven states ratified the amendment. Consider ing the fact that there were hardly any state legislatures in session at the
 time of its passage and that special sessions had to be called in many Of the states which have ratified, this
 progress is exceedingly encouraging Another encouraging fact is the size
 Of the maJorities for the amendment.
 So far the count stands thus: June
 10, Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan.
 In these three states there were only
 six dfSSentient votes and both senate
 and house in Michigan ratified unani- tmously. July IT, New York, Kan
 SdS ana OnlO. In these three states there were nine dissentient votes Ne- York and Kansas ratified unanimotis- ly in both Houses and in Ohio-whicl the Anti Suffra gists had claimed as their own-the vote was 73 to ir | the House and 27 to 8 in the Senate | June 24, Pennsylvania. Here the vots | stood 31 to in the Senate and 15s 1 to 44 in the House. This was an. 1 other state claimed by the Antis 1 June 25, Massachusetts: Senate 34 tc 1 3; 1855 to 47. This was another state l claimed by the .Antis. June 2S, Texas Senate 31 to 3; House SC to 21. July 1 End, Iowa; Senate unanimous; House | s5 to 5. July 8, Missouri, Senate 2S | to 3; House 127 to '.
 | The total number of states needed | to ratify is 26. If progress should l continue at the same rate-11 in z l month, 1t would take little more thar | three months to complete ratfhca ton | There are still twelve full suffrag, 1 states to be heard from, all of whicf l will raufy unanimously, and ther, | are also many states in which wo
 men have either presidential or pri l mary suffrage which will also ac l favorably.

Mrs. Stackpole prescribes basket ball, tennis, volley ball, bowling, swimming. walking. roller skating and other athletic activities. Basket ball is a game of skill and endurance; volley ball a game of skill, and bowling. a wonderful winter sport, is splendid for the development of the abdominal muscles. Each sport has a distinct value, therefore 1t is best to indulge in all. Of course, one must practice judiciously and not to the point of exhaustion.
 Working girls, especially. are ad- vised by Mrs. Stackpole to join In athletics A young girl cannot af ford to live a year of her existence without physical education. A girl must pursue her athletics with regu- lation Dancing, hiking in the cor rect sense of the word, and swimming are among the leading and most liked sports, asserted the athletic instructor.
 Mrs. Stackpole has lived for a number of years in Seattle. Wash, where she was a physical instructor at one of the largest High schools. She adores the glorious West. its vastness, the wonderful climate and the people who live there. She or ganized the physical work at the Y. W. c. A. last year, which has pro- gressed rapidly. Although the gym nasium is still totally inadequate to give all the accommodation needed, still 1t is the best in the city The athletic association of the Y. w. c.

portion which contains the cream and add to it sugar and lime or pl- carbonate of soda. The reason for the latter is that the womans milk is alkaline while the cows milk IS acid or quickly becomes acid.
 Take a quart bottle or clean, pure whole milk and set it in the cooler or refrigerator about six hours. This causes the fat to rise to the top. Have ready another clean 1-quart bottle and pour into it the top half of the milk. The one pint so obtained will be about per cent. fat and to it should then be added nearly pint of pure water that has been obtain ed by boiling, then cooled. One ounce of milk sugar should then be added or a teaspoonfu1 of granulated beet or cane sugar, and a tablespoonful or lime water or pinch of soda. This process modifieS the milk from a mix ed herd of cows to such an extent that it is very much like the milk of a woman. If the milk comes from Jersey or Guernsey COWS, it should not be allowed to stand more than two or three hours or it will be too rich in fat.
 The mixed milk from herd of cows is safer than from single COW. If the cows are fed npou swi11 or other unclean material, the milk should not be used for babies.

 Handsome brocades of metal cloths are combined with sheer silks ornanented in the fine jet design. Many of the evening frocks have quite an interesting quality; the lines are not essen- tialiy new but the fabrics are at tractivc, the colors striking, and there is always a note of extreme chic, which may be expressed in the drape or in the ornament.
 Tho full skirt in the evening frock is much more generally featured and seems to be con- sidered salable in this type.

CHOCOLATE GELATIN.

Dissolve one-quarter box of gela- tin in one pint of milk over the fire: add scant half-cup grated chocolat te or cocoa Cocoa makes a less rich and more easily digested dessert. Us ing only one-quarter of a cup cocoa makes palatable result, and still less rich than either of the other mix lures. When gelatin is dissolved add scant cup sugar and bit of salt ana vanilla flavoring. Pour into mold and set aside to harden Serve with plain cream, thin or thick, or whip cream, and flavor with vanilla. One half cup of heavy cream whipped is usually enough for the amount of jel, which makes a generous serving for two extremely fond of chocolate

TINSEL BROCADES.

With one accord everyone seems to be preparing for a large season in this type of merchandise. Some beau tiful samples of the metallic bro- cades dark colored backgrounds are arriving from Paris at prices that are not at all cheap, but when the quality of the merchandise is con- sidered and the richness with which it will make up there is no hesitaton on the part of buyers to lay in e- supply
 Some of the patterns shown display the motif of medium sized and set some distance apart, while other patterns affect the allover design and show a delicate tracery that relieves the effect of heaviness.

SOUR MILK BISCUITS.

Two cups flour, 1 level teaspoon salt, 1 level teaspoon soda and the same of cream of tartar. Sift thes. all together four times, and then rub in one tablespoon shortening and mix with sour milk (about 1 cup).

The daughter of a country bone setter, she became famed for won dex-working cures, apparently effect ed more by boldness and personal strength than by skill. From her country home in England, she used to drive to taown once week in a coach and four, and return bearing the crutches of her patients as tro- phies of honor. The bone setter s career was a. brief one. In 1736 she was at the height of her power, and at the end of 1737 she died so poor that the parish was obliged to bury her
