Souls of Women.

To the Editor. Ths Washington Herald:
l believe there has been published
recently a statement by one Mt.
Harvey who has arrived at a con-
clusion. after very mature delibera-
tion. that women have no souls. that
the Ten Commandments were for
the male sex only.
No further commandments are
necessary for anybody that will
mind their own business and vill
concede that others should have the
same privilege. We had 10 pass en-
amendment 20 prove 20 ourselve 3
that a woman. as a human beinG.
had an equal right 10 vote and pass
on any legislation II she was inter
ested. This amendment corrects the
mistaken conception that the word
man means specifically the male
sex under all use.
II we deny that a woman has a
soul we also deny her he- hope 80
a future life. A man must have lost
all respect for his mother. for the
mother OF his children and such Of
his children that were 80 unfortu-
nate as to he girls, to come out with
such statement
Creative nature il dual. The soul
is a dual conception and originates
first in the female when her eyes
glisten al the sight Of her FIRST doll

Vaccination Statistics.

To tho Editor. Tye washingt"n Herald:
IL hope all Herald readers who
have read both sides OF the vac
cination and vivisection subjects. as
iscussed some time back in the
Open Court. will hear Or. i W.
Hadwen's lecture on those subjects
in our Public Library November IL
at p. m. Dr. Hadwen says that
in England during the past hfteen
years seventy-eight unvaccins;ed
people have died Of smallpox. while
2S4 have died from vaccination. as
testified TO by medical men them
selves.
nr. Hadwen has seen about as
much smallpox as any medical man
in England. but he has never bon
vaccinated and has never had the
smallpox.
He says that today about IS per
cent of the people Of England are
not vaccinated and they have less
smallpox there than ever before.
That any person. outside OF a luna
tice asylum. could possibly be mad"
to believe that pus and corruption
from a sore on a sick calf would
form a better safeguard against
any disease. than Sound health and
pure blood. is the most amazing
thing in all records Of hu-n-n ex-
perience! H. BoNNELL.

Efficiency in Industry.

IOHN d. ROCKEFELLER, Jr. one of the
largest employers of labor in the world, has
Just gone record in opposition to the twelve
hour day. "A man." says this king of finance. "is
a human being first and member of industry af-
yterwards"
One by the industrial leaders of the coun-
try are putting themselves record with the same
sentiments. few years ago the American Fed
Grafton of Labor considered revolutionary be-
cause it expressed such ideas. The man who fought
for an eight-hour day considered by
some Of his fellow workers, as loafer
Mr.. Rockefeller and the rest have not swung
around to the viewpoint of the labor leaders purely
out OF sentiment They have found that the agi-
tators OF twenty-five years ago better busi-
than themselves-that there is more
actual profit to be got out OF worker who tolls
for eight hours day than from the man who
tolls twelve hours day. scientific study
of the body and mind Of human being results
always in easier lot for labor.
There very few places in American indus
try where the tweve-hour day is in effect-because
it doesn't pay. The efficiency Of labor in industry
depends largely the condition of the laborer-
not the wstchfulness of the foreman. 1t de-
pends upon the Willingness OF the employe-not
upon the stop watch Within comparatively few
years school OF industrial economics has OBJ
tanned general recognition. 1t doesn't do much
good. this school holds. lash a man into action.
The policy is rather keep him fit for action and
then take it for granted that he will do his
without the lash
American labor has been radical in its
doctrines 1t has sponsored, on the other hand a
return to fundamentals in dealing with human
beings. Keep your man fit to work and nature
will do the rest That is the doctrine that is OBJ
tanning wider and wider recognition.
The in the modern industrial plant we
hear. is just cog in the machine. But you canno,
expect cog in the machine function unless il
is kept oiled and free from rust.
We expect that within the next few years
American business leaders will accept OF their own
free will great deal OF the efficiency pro-
gram which labor has been preaching for years
They will accept it because it will mean greater
output. less discomfort and profits. They will
keep their in condition just they keep their
machinery in condton-and this will be better on
the whole than concessions gained on plea for
charity

HONEYMOON FLAG
ON SHIP CAUSE OF
MUCH SPECULATION

An innovation in flag. flown by
passenger vessels was witnessed
when the steamship President Gar
field of the United States Lines ar
rived in quarantine on a recent trip
from London.
When the revenue cutter pulled
alongside the Garfield the custom
inspectors looked in astonishment
at a strange. fiaG that was flying.
Many admitted that they had seen
queer flags in their years OF meet
ing the thousands Of vessels that
have come into the Port of New
York, but they all agreed that this
particular flag was the most novel
one that they had ever seen. On
boarding the vessel. one of the first
questions that was asked of Capt.
Look was: Where did you get that
nag and what is it all about?"
Capt. Look explained that on
leaving London he noticed the very
bashful and retiring demeanor OF
two young couples. and that 1t did
not take. him very long to figure
out that they were on their honey
moon. The next morning various
stewards reported to the chief stew
ard that they had swept out enough
rice in fifteen staterooms to make
puddings for the entire crew for
seven round trips to Europe.
The information was reported to
Capt. Look, and he realized that
there were fifteen honeymoon cou-
mand of a veritable honeymoon ship
and that it was only right that the
fact should be duly heralded and
proclaimed to all ships that they
passed by flying a special flag. He
called the quartermaster and. Civ
ing him a drawing, instructed him
to make the flag at once.
Through the stewards reports
concerning the rice Capt. Look
knew who the honeymooners were,
and at dinner that night each cou-
pie was surprised to find a note
from the captain requesting their
presence at a very solemn and i'm
portant occasion which would take
place on the promenade deck at 10
o'clock the following morning.
/ The next morning promptly at
loui pciiS tHc nltetH money MOON
couples assembled. without the
slightest idea of what was going
to happen and what 1t was all
about.
Capt. Look and several officers
approached the expectant group
followed by the quartermaster, who
carried a flag. Then the ships
band came up and started playing
They Were on Their Honeymoon
while the quartermaster hoisted the
flag to the top of the staff As IL
was unfurled everyone looked at
1t in establishment, then broke into
cheers as they recognized the sig
nificance of the design. which con-
sisted of two red hearts bound by
gold band on, field of pure
white. BY reclamation the flaming
banner was named the Honeymoon
Flag.

Masterpieces of the Kitchen.

c ONE OF the good women of little Western
- county. in Missouri if we remember cor
recy have addressed to the editorial rooms of this
newspaper copy OF the neighborhood cookbook
We cannot fathom their purpose-for there is no
body around the Office in the least interested in
cooking. 1t is of those mysterious arts which
they willing to leave to nccromancers in restau-
rant kitchens Their ony interest is in eating.
We threw the cookbook in the waste basket
and then picked it out again. 1t did not require
much imagination to transform the receipts for egg
pudding and onion into lyric poems-verse
colored with the picturesque life of rural America
Unrecognized, in their bare kitchens among
the milk cans, the farm wives of America have
produced artistic masterpieces. There is some old
the sentiment of which is that the cooking of
a nation expresses the soul of a nation We agree
with it.
In France they erect statues to their cooks
to men who invent tasty dishes with which cafe
owners can tempt francs out Of the pockets of rich
Yankee tourists. But the best ever accomplished
by the Gauls is poor indeed compared to the Amer
lean housewives daily dishes We have no hesita-
ton in proclaimng the farm woman of the United
States the premier cook in the world.
How many of our favorite dishes are native to
America-the product of the American woman's
skill and imagination? Most of them. The New
England boiled dinner, pumpkin pie, apple pie
turkey, . the list is endless. The immigrant.
wife never knows how to cook until she has been
out of Ellis Island for few months
The highest paid hotel cook in America is a
constant borrower from the ideas of these house
wives-and he seldom improves. We are confident
that the ordinary supper served in a country church
l. good as anything the best bonifaee in Wash
Nston could produce.
AS a collection of receipts this Missouri cook
book would interest only the folks. AS
volume of libre collection of the lyrics from
400 500 farm kitchens it has much greater i'm
portance. For, up to few years ago, the only
means OF expression for her artistic dreams open
to the country woman with her dishes. The
kitchen stove was her vion-and she played upon
melodies unsurpassed in all the history OF music.
Flour, cabbage, eggs and milk were her paints
and she produced with them pictures that will
know the cracks of time.
