Many an income now inadequate could be

responsibilities Of a husband, is not given.

Dinner More Than Food
"To be a successful wife, woman
must not only excel in the household arts,
but must be developed culturally as well.
Suppose she places on the table the finest
kind of Il dinner. What is she going to do
afterward? What kind of conversation
has she to offer to so with this delicious
meal?
"In arranging her household budget,
the homemaker should consider first of all
food. That is one thing she cannot 20
without. Next comes shelter.
"Then comes clothing, but not luxurious
dressing. Women should learn to dress
with taste and to suit their own individual
ity, but not extravagantly. The average
woman in the street today not only dresses
that way, but indecently as well. Then
comes operating expenses of the home, which
include both the practical and the artistic
side.
This latter is one of the most difficult
problems of all. How to instill taste where
there apparently is none is conundrum.
But taste really makes for economy as we'll

be considered, but. of course. we all recog

gresham Ware always answered when the
Twenty sixth ward was reached on the roll
call. Congressman Ware would never have
said the things that Trainer said. Senator
Ware must have been sorely distressed.
Trainer and his friends, who are in SYM
pathy with the city administration, propose
to go further. They intend to ask the courts
to pass on the legality Of original nomina-
lions made by four men, to the supreme dis
regard of the thousands and thousands of
ksAsn and women voters in the district.
Perhaps even more distressing moments
are in store for the senator. His private

the $4,000 a year Office of councilman may

is needless to expatiate on the Importance of

J. 1SS2-when the rainfall could be called
unduly heavy. There were four others when
the precipitation for the whole three days
could have been considered sufficient to
make persons growl about the bad
weather." This would mean an average of
half an inch a day. though there are other
times of the year when the rain gauge will
show an inch in twenty four hours on
eral days within a comparatively short
period
On these equinoctial dates in forty years,
fifteen years show absolutely no rain on any
of the three days and eleven others show
only trace. or less than one tenth of an
inch, which is nothing more than a shower.
In fact. these three days show n much

For farmers. hard shell seafaring, men and

sutton that there is always bad weather at
the time OF the equinoxes, and this TRADITION
has gone on year after year for several cen
turtles in spite of all that meteorological ex-
perts have been able TO do to disprove It,.
The nutumnal equinox arrives--or rather
the sun arrives at the autumnal equinoA--at
8 ~ o'clock tomorrow morning. AZ that
moment the sun will cross the celestial equa-
tor on its way to southern ATTITUDES for the
rest OF the winter. Every year this event

A CCoRDING to the tradition. the weather

supposed to be worst on the actual day. 80
Tar do some of the traditionalists carry their
belief that the local weather bureau is an
nually besieeed by scores Of letters asking
for information as to the direction OF the
Trom az hi. the time of the O Ss
to foretell the kind of weather we will have
during the rest of the winter.
How absurd such a claim must be was
shown last year aud the year before. when
this section Of the country was covered by
an area Of calm which made the direction of
wind at places no farther than twenty miles
apart exactly the opposite Of each other. The
winds then were governed entirely by loca!
conditions and not by any widespread
meteorological phenomena. This year such
condition is not expected, so that there
will probably be a fair agreement among
those persons, and the fact that their pre-
dictions in the previous two years embraced
every possible kind of winter will be for
gotten.
TT IS interesting, in view of the popular
L and really firm belief in the "equinoctial
storm to look back over the weather rec
ords for the equinoctial dates as found in
the weather bureau here. The forty years
from 1871 to and including 1910 show how
absurd the superstition Is. at least so far
as weather in this part Of the world is con.
cerned. Here, for instance, are the recorded
rainfalls in inches and hundredths of an
inch for the three DAYS during the time men
toned. IT, in the tables means only trace
of rainfall--too slight to measure.
