T o & tion” was discused by Mrs. Arthur C. | Neville of Green Bay, Wis. | This was followed by an_industrial ses- sion, with Mrs. Florence Kelley of New York as chairman. The_ chief speaker, Miss Jane Addams of Hull House, Chicago discussed ‘“The Social Waste of Child La- bor,” printed slips being distributed cov- ering phases of the subject. Miss Addams made a plea for uniformity of child labor laws in the States, and suggested this as ar admirable work for club women to un- dertake. Miss Jean Hamilton of Oswego, N. Y., presented the ‘‘Club Movement | Among Working Women, and Mrs. El- mer B. Jones of Salt Lake City spoke of “The Consumers' League in Utah.” The report of the committee on educa- tion was presented by Miss Ellen C. Sa- bin, president of Milwaukee Downer Col lege. It was in part as follows: A marked characteristic of the present time is the widespread interest that exists in edu- | cation. This intereat is not vonfined to teach- ers and those immediately connected with the administration of the sehcols, but it per- meates society. There has been great activity in the educational world for the past few years.

In org: this c GRAPE-NUTS, PUZZLED. Hard Work Sometimes to Raise Chil- dren. Children's taste is ofttimes more accur- ate in selecting the right kind of food to fit the body than that of adults. Nature works more accurately through the chil- dren. A Brooklyn lady says: “Our little boy has long been troubled with weak diges- tiocn. We could never persuade him to teke more than one taste of any kind of cereal food. He was a weak little chap and we were puzzied to know what to feed him on. One lucky day we tried Grape-Nuts. Well, you never saw a child eat with such a relish, and it did me good to see him. From that day on it seemed &s though we could almost see him grow. He would eat Grape-Nuts for breakfast end supper and I think he would have liked the food for dinner. “The difference in his appearance is something wonderful. “My husband has never been known to fancy cereal foods of any kind, but he became very fond of Grape-Nuts and has been much improved in health since us- irg it. “A friend has two children who were formerly affigted with the rickets. I was isfled that the disease was caused by lack of proper mnourishment They showed it. S0 I urged her to use Grape- Nuts as an experiment and the result was almost magical. They continued the food and to-day both children are well and strong as any children in this city, and, of course, my friend is a firm be- liever in the right kind of food, for she has the evidence before her eyes every day. “When 1 have some task to perform akout the house and don't feel very strong, & saucer of Grape-Nuts and cream stimulates me, and I am able to do the task at hand with ease. “We are now a healthy family and naturally believe in Grape-Nuts.” Name <iven oy Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. ing side issue to the recording said | ase, it would not be simple readjust- | HELD IN THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA METROPOLIS. | | L ment, as some say, and the many clubs which are members of the General Fed- eration but not of the State would by the proposed amendment be thrown out.” This is the point Mrs. Lee will raise | Monday, printed slips having been dt tributed among the delegates. % Mrs Lockwood of Washington, | the fitty incorporators, or at le jority of them, to travel to Washington from various parts of the country to hold | 2 meeting and vote the rest of the body |in.

The entertain- | ers were Mrs. Jessie Eldridge Southwick | of Boston, the Shakespearean reader; | Mrs. Mabel Loomis Todd of Amhurst, Mass., a writer and wife of the astron- omer, and John Fox Jr. of Kentucky. The four sessions in the afternoon were full of interest. The press session, under the direction of Mrs. Elia Peattie, had as | speakers Mrs. Sarah Hagan of Atlanta, Mrs. Mary Holland Kincald of Milwau- | kee, Emma_Payne Erskine of Racine, | Wis., and Margaret Colller Graham of California. Under Mrs. James D. White- more of Denver the subject of clubhous was discussed by Mrs. Joseph Sartori of Los Angeles, Mrs. J. Sidney Peck of Mil- waukee, Miss Helen Murphy of Philadel- phia, Mrs. Sarah D. Easton of Peoria, I, and Mrs. Albert Sioussat of Balti- mgre. WOMEN DISCUSS ART. The art sesslon, under Mrs. Albert Brockway of Brooklyn, had as speakers | Mrs. Herman Hall of Chicago, president |of the American Park and Outdoor Art Association; Mrs. Julia Van Kirk Wilkes of Chicago, Miss Katherine Ball of San Francisco, Mrs. Alonso Chapin of Pasa- dena and Dr. Yamei Kin of San Fran- cisco, an cducdted Chinese woman, who is_remarkable in many ways.

R. will recelve visiting Daugh- ters, and at_the same time the City Chap- ter of the United Daughters of the Con- federacy will keep open house for the Southern women. The latter part of next week Mrs. Mary Stilson will entertain the officers and general committee at her home on Kensington road. There were a number of interesting ad- dresses and reports at all sessions. Miss Mabel Clare Craft read a paper on *A vantages of Coeducation,” of which this is an excerpt: It s wholly to the advantage of the entire rucs and to woman's half of t women should be made free of the best education at- tainable, and reason, generosity and justice all urge that women shall be permitted to train their minds under the same august supervision which moulds and polishes those of their fath- ers, husbands, brothers and sons.

NEED FOR EDUCATION. In this general interest the women's clubs ace rot only sharcrs but leaders. A survey of | the subjects that have occupled them reyeals that no aspect of education is foreign to their thought and care. The women of the Feder- ated Clubs have clearly centered their interests in the future, and are providing for it in the most complete and rational manner. Wherever we see the Federated Club we see also increased vital interest in education, man- ifesting iteelf In better public sentiment, im- proved methods, quickened sense of responsi- bility and wider legisiation, while it is always eminently practical in form.

Probably the most practical feature of the four afternoon sessions was the reci- rocity bureau idea as brought out by rs. Philip Moore, chairman of the reci- procity session. Mrs. Moore was ap- pointed by the national board to head a committee which should devise some means of centralizing the various reci- procity committees, and this conference was for that purpose. A portion of her report follows: Some months ago the board of the General Federation considered the need of a national reciprocity committee, from which, as a well known central bureau, could be obtained papers and lectures upon all possible subjects, without going through the maze of correspondence now. & necessity. Questions are constantly asked the officers, answers to which are impossible without again referring the correspondents to the different State committees. These com- mittees are known only through their year books, and each deals with the special needs of its' own State. We shall hope through this conference to make some distinct recommendations to the nctional committee, and as one member sald in her last letter, one who has made ‘‘recip- rocity”* her watchward, we have two points to present in the beginning. First—Improvement of State through comparison of methods. speakers, as well as papers being particularly recommended—also better standards in refer- ence to both.) Second—Establishment of a General Fed- eration bureau (made up of best speakers and papers from States) to promote reciprocity be- tween the States upon all lines of work and methods. The other members of the reeiprocity committee whose names are attached to the above report are: Miss Alice A. Bur- ditt, Dorchester, Mass.; Mrs. Willlam 'T. Coad, Rapid City, 8. D.

SAN JOSE, May 3.—Miss Hattie J. Mil- ler, daughter of a well-known orchardist residing in the Willows, fell into a stream | of sulphuric acid in front of Callisch’s drugstore, on South First street, this morning and was frightfully burned on her right side from her head to her foot. Employes of the store had wheeled a large carboy of the acid to the door of the store from a truck in the street, and just as the doorway was reached the ves- sel, which was of glass covered with bas- ketwork, collapsed. The corrosive liquid poured down the sidewalk to the gutter in a two-foot stream. Miss Miller was passing along. She thought it was a stream of water swept out after the scrubbing of a floor and attempted to tiptoe through it. As soon as he stepped on the running acid she slipped and fell, her right cheek touching into the stream of acid. The acid ate through her clothes on the right side in an Instant and burned her severely. ’l;he burns on her body are the most se- rious. Miss Miller was carried into the drug- itore and physiclans were called to treat er. some extent she was removed to her home in the Willows. While her injuries are most painful her condition is not con- sidered dangerous. J. M. Singleton, a mall carrier, also in his hurry rushed into the stream of acid and fell. His right hand was burned, one of his trouser legs almost eaten off and his mail pouch was damaged. @ ilrldriieiiieiieiieielaiefnlninieieied @ Thompson, Oakland, Cal; Mrs. R. B.
