Mrs. Pankhurst considered mo-
ment.
"She can join a club. She can
read, think, discuss. She must learn
the truth on important questions
and form opinions of her own. A
safe rule is for a woman to ask how
will this matter affect my children,
my home, my husband. my town ?
Her heart. mind and mother love, !

Responsibility
'T do not hrge .woman's party.
I believe in the individual respon-
sibility of the wife. mother. girl.
All women should choose the order
ly, constructive policies and beware
of the destructive ones so danger
ously unleashed since the war.
Glass and national discord and
interference in other nations affairs
should be Stunned. Woman are
naturally conservers, protectors.
Now is the time to use their fac
ulties. their practical brains and
their good hearts in every way pos

are good fighters. They are still
better peacemakers."

BY the careful estimation OF the
amount Of food TO be served al each
meal the housekeeper can effect an
appreciable saving
A few moments thought expended
in calculation based on the knoyl-
edge Of the appetites and tastes Of
those to be served makes It possible
to provide just enough.
In a family where ieft-overs are
not tolerated this accurate provision
of food should be worked out most
judiciously. otherwise there IS dan
ger OF too great frugality, causing
under-nourishment.

'The Carved Box,

When Nancy and Nick crawied
into the 'igloo" or hut of Ishtu the
Eskimo. they could scarcely see at
first. until their eyes became ac-
customed to the darkness. Eskimos
have no windows in their low
ice-houses and very low doors and
the only light they get is by burn
ing whaleoil or seal oil in fiat dishes.
But they soon made out the figure
of a man bending over a little
moss fire and stirring broth that
smelled awfully good to their little
noses. IT must be the good Ishtu

HOLY NAME SOCIETY
HAS ELECTION At SO. AMBOY

By Special Correspondent
SOUTH AMBOY. Jan. lion
Sunday night the Holy Name Society
was addressed by Rev. Father NAL
10y, at present chaplain of the
Neuman school at Lakewood, and
former professor and chaplain in
the u s. army. Father Malloy is
the first speker on the list of lee
turers comprising men of reputation
in man wwalks of life to address the
local society. The subject of the
address, Socialism and Its Effects"
was timely and very appropriate to
the times. While South Amboy
this far has been very fortunate in
this respect it is well that its cit
liens know the effect of this sort of
propaganda.
The reorganization of this society
was the result of the splendid show
ing the men made at the time of the
Mission conducted by the passionate
fathers in this city. So great was
the number of men who turned out
on that occasion and such was their
spirit that the first meeting held
shortly after the closing resulted in
the reorganization.

fresh green leafy vegetables and
fruits. and plenty of water.
Have her drink from six to eight
glasses of water between her meals.
A teaspoonful of raw bran mixed
with the oatmeal is sometimes very
beneficial in cases of constipation.'
Will you kindly advise me as to
what can be safely used for a
douche for leucorrhoea?
The good result of this form OF
treatment is due more largely to the
hot water in which some mild anti
septic is dissolved than to the anti
septic itself.
The douche Is given with an ordi-
nary fountain syringe to the patient
in a reclining position and the solu-
ton should be as hot as can be
borne, following which the patient
should recline for at least one-half
hour.
