The necessity for taking the census so little understood by the people st the census enumerator is looked son with suspicion and the inquiries as something to evasively meet if pos- sible, hence President Taft considered t mecessary to address the people up- n this subject. It is a fact that the census enumer- ks no questions of a mnature necessarily embarrassing, The infor- | mation imparted to him, as to indi- viduals, goes no farther. The answers given carry no responsibility with them @s to taxation, military service, jury duty, school attendance, immigration, the enforcement of any state or ational law—all of which ,proper im| emselves, are anathema to persons do not like that sort of thing. here need be no fear of disclosure 1905, average .

The ' man who proposes to furnish free dental service for all time to the students of the public schools of Boston between the ages of five and sixteen, has a practical mind and may in the end do as much for the benefit of mankind as the givers of other mil- lions. Thomas A. Forsyth, a resident of Boston, plans to give $2,000,000 for the care of the teeth of that city's school <hildren. It is to be a perpetual foun- dation. A building is to be provided, equipped with all necessary modern apparatus, and presided over by a carps of the most expert dentists in the state. The institution will bear the distinctlon of being the most unique of its kind in the country. THe fund is without restrictions save those placed upon it by the corporation which will be in charge. The sole con- dition imposed on patients who apply for treatment is that they need it. This may be regarded as a freak philanthropy, but good teeth mean a great deal to the people both in the way of health and comfort. There are so many people who cannot afford this expense that will be benefited by it, that the real advantage Is inestimable. It means a more wholesome atmo- sphere for the school room and better- ment«in several directions. WILD MEAT FOR THE PEOPLE. The proposition of Secretary Wilson antelope and deér upon the wild acres of these six states as a means of pro- ducing cheaper meat, is not so seri- ously regarded as it deserves to be, nd is really not accepted as a possi- bility. The Worcester Gazette, com- menting upon this recommendation of the secretary of agriculture, says “We assume that the honorable sec- retary is talking seriously. However, we wish to remark that his recommen- dation that the country turn to deer- raising to make the wicked Beef trust grieve for its manifold malefactions is in our opinion beautiful in theory, but abhorrent to contemplate in its practical application. Venison is a delicas an appetizer, & sauce so to speak, & thing that serves but to lend variety and piquancy to the routine of the workaday bill of fare. It never was intended to be and venison never could be used as a steady diet. “The ingenwousness with which Tama Jim suggests venison to a hun- gry nation now dolorous in its wail for cheaper meat, and proposes it as a substitute for what the aforesaid wick- ed Beef trust has taken away, is akin to that ingenuousness of Marie An- toinette. who, when the Paris mob howled for bread outside the walls of Versaill complacently suggested, there being’ no bread in the palace; that somebody have the kindness to give the mob cake.” There is Mo doubt that the people would bravely face this diet if it were possible to furnish it. New England has not had all the venison it wanted for several generations, .nd it could accomplish, perhaps, what Secretary regarding any individual or his affairs. So says the proclamation, All that the government desires is truthful information as to the number of persons in this country, their station wnd relation in life, their nativity, etc. This work is to begin on the 15th of April. The enumerator cannot be shut out, so it will become everybody to be good-natured and prompt and in a few minutes it will all be over. He has the goveérnment back of him and can compel every citizen to answer he questions submitted.

EDITORIAL NOTES. Taxes are always shouting for re- form, but not upwards. If March does indulge in a few high blowouts mow, we'll forgive her. March 21st fixes the weather for the summer; and it usually fixes it right. Secretary Ballinger's unwritten or- ders were of a very suspicious charac- ter. Dr. Mary Walker has never been able to show that “Clothes make the man.” The first airship tickets at about $4 a milé don’'t discourage the am- bitious. When a woman takes a man by storm he seems’to enjoy the raging elements. Happy thought for today: -Good cheer to a pessimist is like a red rag to a bull. With a list of 13,000 specimens to his credit it does not'look as if Roosevelt had been idle in deepest Africa. The man who commits suicide with a horse-pistol furnishes the coroner evidence that he was a back number. A Georgia man expects to realize a half-million on a black rose, It is the little inventions that produce fortunes, The fact that 92,000,000 germs have been found on a single dollar-bill doesn’t prompt the people to decline money.

To all classes of the Irish race there is no song “The Wearing of the' Green.” On St. Patrick’s Day, day of the Shamrock, on the buttonhole nearest the the national emblem, and on the lips of all true time during the day, are repeated the words of great Irish actor Dion Boucicault, arranged them from a song ably seven generations earler, the author of the original one has ever been able to learn. - . Oh! Paddy, dear. an’ did you hear the news goin’ round, The _shamrock is forbid by law to grow on Irish ground: St. Patrick’s day no more we'll keep, his colors can’t be seen, For there's a bloody law ag'in the Wearing of the Green; 1 met _with Napper Tandy, and he tuk me by the hand, And he said: “How’s poor ould Ireland,.and how does she stand?” She’s the most distressful country that ever you have seen; They're hanging men and women there for Wearing of the Green. Then since the color we must wear is England’s cruel red, Sure Ireland’s sons will ne'er forget the blood that they have shed; You may take the shamrock from your hat and cast it on sod, But "twill take root and flourish still, tho' under foot ’tis trod; When the law can stop the blades of grass from growing as they And when the leaves in summer-time their verdure dare not show; Then I will change the color I wear in my caubeen, But till that day, please God, I'll stick to the Wearing of the Green. Sut if at last our color should be torn from Ireland’s heart, Her sons with shame and sorrow from the dear old soil will part; T've heard whispers of a country that lies bevant the say: Where rich and poor stand equal, In the light of freedom'’s day; Oh! Erin must wé leave you, driven by the tyrant's hand? Must we ask a mother’s welcome from a strange but han~v land! Where the cruel cross of England's thralldom never shall be seen, And where, thank God, we'll live and die, still Wearing of the Green. r $ Woman in Life and in the Kitchen CONCERNING WOMEN. In one of the New Zealand ceme- teries is a grave on which the follow- ing words are inscribed after the name and age of the deaq, girl: ~She was so0 pleasant,” says a writer. What a de- lightful character she must have had to deserve such an epitaph, an essen- tially lovable girl. J fessional cdeaner. The seeret of res- toration is a piece of sandpaper rub- bed over the surface. A very fine grade of sandpaper is required. When this is used with care the effect is magical and no injury to the material acerued. Many kinds of leathers with- out polished surfaces—for example, suede, undressed and ooze calfskin— can be cleaned thus. The baby daughter of Sydney Varn- | dell, the master of the Crowhurst Ot- ter hounds of England, has one of the rarest and most interesting pets in, one may say, the whole of civilization, It is a baby otter. The little creature was found by Mr. Varndell when out hunting with his hounds & few weeks back.

Shelves for precious china may have pads of felt to prevent chipping the dishes. When fracile plates must be piled on one another a smaill, plain doily placed between will save break- ages. ¥ is a good plan to have individual markings for bath towels. The initials may be embroidered in chain stitch. NEEDLEWORK SUGGESTIONS. When frying, the stove fs often splashed over with grease. To pre- vent this sprinkle a little salt in,the frying pan before putting in the fat. In decoration, remember that the heavy all-over designs, however elal- orate and costly, rarely give the last- ing pleasure that we get from simpler effects. To keep parsley fresh in winter, di- rectly it is gathered place in an air- tight tin and take out just what is necessary for use. In this way one can keep parsley quite fresh for weeks. Avoiding Fruit Stains. When paring any kind of fresh fruit, if the hands are washed off immediate- Iy with cold water, instead of being washed 4n warm water and soap, there will be very little danger of unsightly ‘| stains. Bran Bread. Two cups of flour, one cup of bran, three tablespoonfuls of molasses, three teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one | egg well beaten, salt to taste, milk to make a soft batfer. Mix well and bake in a loaf tin from 30 to 35 minutes, Pockets Again. In suits with any pretense of elab- orateness pockets are a prominent feature, Even in plain suits the pockets are conspicuous for odd shape and finish.

Dusting Set. They are charming, coquettish Mt- tle things, and they sell in the shops for as little as 50 cents. The set comprises mop cap, sleeve protectors and an apron. The whole set is made of three men's handkerchiefs, white with a fancy bor- der in color. One handkerchief gathered up for the cap, by stitching around it in a large circle which almost touches the sides and leaves the four points, and drawing the thread fp until the cap takes shape, and a most bewitchin- shape it is. The apron is made of another hand- kerchief, held diagonally and gzather- ed in at the waist toward the top, the extra point above being used as a The other handkerchief is used for the cuffs and for a ypocket on the apron. Lavender and white, pink and white and blue and white are the colors made at home, choosing any sort of handkerchief one wishes. Ginger Apples. About five pounds of tart apples; pare, core and cut the apples into squares; five pounds of light brown sugar, two lemons sliced thin, six ounces of preserved ginger root cut in slices; first put the sugar in a kettle with one cupful of cold water and let melt; then skim after bolling up un- til clear; then put in the apples, one- half- teaspoon of salt, lemons, ginger and boil untll the apples look clear and rich; then put into glass jars, the same as any fruit; serve with meats. Eggs a la Golden Rod. Boil two eggs half an hour, remove the volks and cut ‘the whites into small bits. Season one-half cup of cream with a little salt, put it over the fire to boll and thicken with a lit- tle flour wet with.cold milk. When thick and smooth, stir in the whites of the eggs and pour over two slices of toast. Put the yolks through a potato ricer and sprinkle over the whites. Garnish with lettuce leaves. Practical Overdress. The tunic or overskirt of chiffon is 2 boon. Last season’s light frock that is too much soiled to be worn may do service for the rest of the winter if veiled by one of these chiffon tunics. It may be of black or may match the color of the dress, as preferred. Any home dressmaker could fashion this simple garment. It falls in straight lines from the bust to within a foot of the bottom of the skirt and is tucked at the waist line. The sides are slashed, the edges connected by strapping and the lower edge is finished with a fringe. ., Washing Gighams. It is not what to do, but what not to do, to save your ginghams. Avoid strong soap, hot water, too much rub- bing, hot starch, and do not dry ging- hams in the hot sunshine or, if you must, take them ‘indoors as soon as dry. Whatever you do, do not use hard water and alkali to wash them. The colors are set with turpentine in water. Sometimes salt and alum are used. Some ginghams fade in spite of all precautions. Avoid using thick starch on red ginghams. Red often turns a red-black when ironed, but it resumes a more natural color when exposed to the air. Pinks fade an ug. iy yellow, blues fade a clear white and greens likewise, Yellow washes nice 1y, browns look clear and mixed white and blue looks fresh and bright even when slightly faded. Most lavenders and tans wash" nicely. i New Hats. Many of the new hats will have ex- aggerated high crowns of taffeta, vel vet and tulle. Another feature will be the mingling of half a dozen bright colors which, although startli in ef- fect, is_appropriate for the timec of year. Ome model recently purchased for a southern wardrobe was of cadet blue straw made somewhat on thelines of the turban. The high, full, puff- crown was of bright n taffeta and the only other trimming was a dozen or more cherries. In the brightest shade of canary vellow another youth- ful model was of yellow straw. large and flat, with the crown surrounded by a very beautiful wreath of “les fleur des champs.” a medley of corn flowers, buttercups, poppies, etc. When Ironing. The backs of old kid gloves. sewn together and used as an interlining to kitchen kettle or laundry iron holders, are invaluable as a means of givil protection to the hands without adding materially to the bulk of the holder. A ‘piece of felt, flannel, blanketing Serge or even velveteen may be used as the outer covering. When heating flatirons it is always best to lift them and wipe after being on the gas stove a few seconds, as the moisture found on the irons turne rusty when Tully heated. This will mg. Instead of havinz an iron stand on which to rest your irons, use an ordi- nary brick for the purpose. The brick, being nonconductor, the frons will retain their heat longer than if placed on the open stand. . Shirt Waists and Sailor Hats.
