WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH THE
WOMAN BOARDER? ASKS M'LISS
t .
She Must Be a Pest, Indeed, Judging From the
t Number of "Gentlemen Only" Signs
f ' That Appear in Windows and "Ads"
IT WAS after a frightfully wcarylnf? day's tramp throughout every section of
the city where boarding houses thrive that my friend, foot-soro and peevish,
flopped on my couch and flung out her plaint:
"Oh, f 1 were only a man, then I'd have the kind of apartment I'm looking
for handed to me on a sliver plate, I suppose. But seeing as how I'm only a
woman wlio'n out of tho house all day and willing to pay liberally for the service
she demandB, I'm treated ns a pariah a leper whoso presenco la contaminating.
"Bvery time I called at a house that looked extremely livable; whero the
rooms -were largo and airy and whero there were fireplaces, the samo old phrase
Was sing-songed at me:
" 'We don't tnks ladles here.'
''I tried to arguo the matter with one landludy, but got no satisfaction.
"'Is It because a man goes out oftener and burns less electricity?' I nsked
her, 'that you consider him a moio economical proposition?'
'"No, 'taint exactly that,' she replied reflecting, 'I can't Just tell you why It
Is In so many words, but a man is more desirable to have as a boarder than a
woman Is. for one thing, men ain't forever prying In your affairs. You don't
havo to keep your oye on them, either, for fear they're stealing your gns or eler- j
trlclty to Iron or cook on. All you have to do Is keep their rooms neat and clean
nnd they're contented and never bother you only to pay their bills when they i
are due.
"But women n-o forover fussing around. They want jotl to do this and to
flo that. They can't nee why you don't provide tho matches, and If they ram their
curling Iron through the gas mantle trying to heat It, they get mad If you don't
buy 'cm another. No, ma'am, you may be an exception, but I can't take any
ladles In my house."
It Is curious riow tho boarding and rooming house advertisements back up
my friend's contention. Only In Isolated cases Is a woman wanted. In the ma
jority of tho "ads" gentlemen are preferred, and tho oft recurring phrase, "gen
tlemen only" teems with unexpressed significance regarding women ns tenants.
"Why is it, I wonder, that women have fallen into such bud repute with the
boarding house mistresses? Why is It that a man, bo ho ever so cinnky, Is wel
comed with open aims while the most gonial woman Is excluded.
Wo must havo btcn very petty, very undesirable Indeed, to have made these
"gentlemen only" and "gentlemen preferred" phrases occur with such frequent-
In tho advertisements. There must be some reason not wholly occult why my j
friend, when sho saw tho kind of room that who had been combing tho city for, J
with n great, nign celling nnu oia-iasnioneu maiueipieco unu u uiuuu, kcuciuuk
fireplace, could not have It becauso It was being held for some possible "gentle
man," who had not yet materialized, although sho was willing to pay the price
asked and had .10 intention of using more light than that to which Bhe was
entitled.
More Preparedness
Is gray ono of ycur favorite shades? Then do your buying now. A buyer In
ono of tho largest shops told mo that gray Is ono of tho most difficult shades to
get, duo to tho tcnslor. In the dye situation.
Just at tho present tlmo the shops Beem no replete with all kinds of fascinating
materials that It is dlfllcult to realize tho gravity of tho situation, but I have It
authoritatively, that tho'Paterson dyers havo notified the manufacturers that
beforo April 1 the lotter will have to pay an advance of GO per cent, for black and
other dark-color dyes and -10 per cent, for thoso of medium shades.
Incidentally, sevtinl women of my acquaintance, alarmed at the rumors, ap
parently well-substantiated, that next year we shall bo paying double prices for
Inferior woolen goods, have stocked up with durable material for their winter
suits.
This may seem preparedness with a vengeance, but It may prove a case of
"sho laughs best who laughs last."

Poem of Joaquin Miller
T SHOULD appreciate It very much If
JL I could secure a copy of the poem of
Joaquin Miller, poet of the mountains,
which commences: 'Tho bravest battles
that over were fought. Shall I toll you
whero and when,' etc. Also, let me have a
copy called The House by tho Side of
the Iload.' I am anxious to read It.
"M. Mc."
A copy of tho second poem you name
went to you by mall. It was left over In
our hands after other claimants were
supplied through the bencflccnco of tho
constituency. I refer the request for
Joaquin Miller's fine lines. If no copy Is
sent In for you, consult tho poems of the
mountain bard In your city library. I
think, however, that you will receive a
copy through the Comer.
Wine-Producing Countries
"What countries produce most of the
twines used by the world at large? And
Is It true that thesa countries lead the
world In drunkenness? Don't be afraid
to speak the. truth upon this matter!
Some people are 1 J- C K."
Italy produces yearly 1,388,524,991 gal
lons of wine. Franco comes next with
3,166.885,278 gallons. In answer to your
second query, I venture to remind you
that many of the wines made In these
countries are almost non-tntoxlcant, b.
lng light and absolutely unadulterated.
The "vln ordinaire" of the lower classes
who drink It habitually, is to our taste
more like weak vinegar than wine. There
lore, you may believe me when I assert
that In two years' residence upon the Con
tinent roost of the time In the large cities
I saw but two drunken men. I grieve to
add that one was an Englishman, the
other an American, who had Indulged
freely In brandy and high balls. You see
I am not afraid to "speak the truth" upon
this head. I am ashamed that one of the
tipsy men was from my own country.
Copy of Poem
"I have tried In several quarters of the
city to find the poem called "The Face
on the Barroom Floor" and have failed.
Thinking that In some way you might
help me procure a copy, I ask your aid.
I Inclose postage for an answer.
"W. C. D."
Has the member who volunteered to
copy the poem for other applicants been
overtaxed by the calls upon her? If not.
Will she let us forward the addreua of the
complainant who has been singularly un
lucky In his quest for the coveted lines?
Qr. will some other kind soul carae to his

Stuffed Eggplant
"I'm coming to you for a recipe for a
filled poodle eserolle, I think it Is called.
An Italian grocer tried to give It to me,
but he couldn't recall all the ingredients,
but he ended by saying: 'You write to
Marion Harland: she sometime prints It
Jn her paper.' The noodles must be good,
for he smacked hU )tps when he talked of
them. I should like, also, a recipe for
aiuffed eggplant. I E. G "
At the risk of lowering my reputation,
with the Italian grocer and disappointing
you (which la a far more serious matter),
frankly own myself Ignorant of what
JJUed poodle are. That Is, I do not rec
ognise them under that name. The reader
i)iq can make up to you for this de

to come forward at this juncture and

of minced ham, a quarter cup of bread
crumbs, a tablespoon of melted butler,
salt and pepper to taste. Mix well, add
enough soup stock to make a stiff paste
and fill the hollow sides with this. When
full and rounded, sprinkle tho forcemeat
with bread crumbs and lay tho halves,
side by side. In a covered bakepan, pour
ing three cups of soup stock around them.
Bake nearly an hour, basting every 10
minutes. Remove the eggplant to a hot
platter, thicken the gravy left in the pan
with browned flour, boll up once on top
of the range, stir constantly, and pour
this browned sauce about the base of the
halved eggplant.
Eggplant stuffed with tomatoes: Par

forcemeat of the eggplant, a cup of
chopped ripe or canned tomatoes, one
chopped green pepper, and a cup of bread
crumbs. Season with a tablespoon of
melted butter, salt and pepper. Fill the
hollow with this, bind the two Bides with
wide tape, and bake covered basting fre
quently with melted butter and hot water.
When tender, transfer to a hot platter,
cut the tape, and pour the tomato sauce
about the eggplant.
To Amuse Little Ones
"Having read In the Corner of pasting
paper on the back of used postal cards,
I am sending one of mine to Bhow you
how I use them. I have put together more
than 2000 for children's societies to amuse
the little ones. I. f, c."
And an excellent way It Is I As I can
not reproduce the finished card here I
will describe the method. Two painted or
engraved picture cards are pasted to
gether back to back and allowed to dry.
One has then a double picture different
on each Bide. The effect Is far more pleas
ing than when the written side la cov
ered with plain paper. Of course, cards
arranged In this way must be of equal
size and the edges laid evenly together.
Select the varying sizes to suit one an
other In pairs. The idea will be adopted
delightedly by those engaged in mission
work and In children's societies. In a
former Issue I quoted from the letter of
a missionary In China who told of the
pleasure cards give to the children In
mission schools.
Wants Copy of Song
T noticed some one In the Corner had
a copy of 'She Sleeps In the Valley.' I
heard this years ago, but cannot procure
It here, r. J. s."
Referred. The song Is so popular that
a copy should be forthcoming without
further appeal. Requests and addresses

Invincible Beauty Made an
Honorary Member of Lit
erary Organization
If tho women writers of this city ex
pected to wrest from tho fair Lillian Rus
sell nny of those secrets regarding tho
preservation of beauty, which secrets sho
has had locked In her breast for, lo, these
65 years (If you don't believe It, see Who's
Who on the stage and bo convinced), thoy
were sadlly disappointed when Miss Rus
set came to their clubrooms nt 1210 Locust
street last night to address them and
be made an honorary member of tholr or
ganization. Hxcept for a few broad general rules,
such as "sleep eight hours out of every
24" and "work as hard and as long as
you can," the stago beauty, desplto her
own effulgent pulchritude, was exceedingly
secretive. But sho did, in her low and
vibrant voice, which Is but another testi
monial of the lady's Invincible youth, di
vert "the girls" with some amusing Inci
dents in her own Journalistic career.
" "Write more about pimples and less
about soull' was the succinct advice my
first editor gave me," Miss Russell said,
"but I found It easier to do this than to
tell the public how to raise a 10-year-old
boy, which was the next assignment he
gave mo."
Miss Russell spoko with faint contempt
of those famous beauties who only lend
their names to articles that are pre
sumably written by them. She writes her
own every morning, she declared.
Garbed In a Bmart black evening gown
of filmy net nnd gold lace, a veritable
airy, fairy Lillian attire, enhaueed by the
chic hat of mallnes she wore. Miss Russell
once more gave the He to her age, as she
doubtless will continue to do, and proved
that "age cannot wither nor custom
stale" her Infinite variety, at any rate.
Cheese Recipes
Cheese straws are n dainty Lenten
dish, and here Is a good recipe for mak
ing them. Blend together one cup of flour,
one cup of parmesan or gruyore cheese,
with salt and cayenne to taste, then
moisten with tho well-beaten yolk of an
egg nnd a tablespoonful of melted butter.
Work all the Ingredients Into a paste. Roll
out on n board Into thin strips and cut
about four Inches long. Place on but
tored sheets of waxed paper and bake
brown.
All for Love
I e'er took delight In thy
thy hlgh-
O Fame! If
praises,
"Twas less for tho Bako of
Bounding phrases
Than to sco the bright eyes of the dear
one discover
She thought that I was not unworthy to
love her.
There chiefly I sought thee, there only I
found thee;
Her glanco was the best of the rays that
surround theo;
When It sparkled o'er nught that was
bright In my story,
I knew It was love and I felt It was glory.

Tho constantly Increasing number of
nutomobllos ban put beforo Councils and
Legislatures the dlfllcult problem of giv
ing motor vehicles a legitimate freedom
In rlty streets nnd nt tlin same time
lafegunrdlng the lives nnd llmbi of pedes
trlnni. In 1002 the Philadelphia Councils
enacted an ordinance under which the
rights of both nutomobllo nnd pedestrian'?
wcro fairly well preserved, but this ordin
ance has been superseded by an act of
Asscmbty approved July. 101H.
Legal phraseology Is moro or less puz
zling to the lay render, but If Bevcral of
tho sections of this act mean what they
say, It h thep nrt of wisdom for nil pedes
trians to make themselves rendy for
sudden death every time they go out Into
tho streets.
Tho act beglni very well by providing
that unless motor vehicles must bo regis
tered In the State Highway Department
ond must nlways show In a conspicuous
placo n tog bearing tho registered num
ber, as well as two lamps of specified
kind j nnd It Is further provided that no
person under 1C, whether tho owner of a
motor vehlclo or not, shall opcrnto sucli
vehicle on nny public road or street of
this Commonwealth.
TAID OPERATORS MUST BE "QUALI
FIED "
Much light Is thrown upon these two
apparently Innocent sections by tho ono
from which wo learn that "every person
desiring to operate a motor vehlclo ns a
paid operator" must apply to tho State
Highway Department for a driver's li
cense to get which ho must gUo proof
that ho Is moro than 18 years of ngo and
"qualified to operate such a motor ve
hlclo." Tho State Highway Department.
If satisfied of tho qualifications of tho ap
plicant, will Issuo to him a driver's license
and a bndgo. Tho license must bo carried
by tho driver whenever he Is operating a
car, nnd tho bndgo must bo worn conspic
uously on tho front of the outer garment
of tho drlvor "at all times when said
driver Is operating n motor vehicle."
From this section wo learn that a paid
operator rccolvos a llcenso to drive a car
only after proving his ability to do so,
whiten othlng further is demanded of tho
operator who happens to own his car than
that ho bo moro than 10 years old and
carries on his car tho proper tag and
lamps.
There Is no word In tho act that ovon
Implies that tho operator who Is also the
owner of a car Bhould know how to man
age It, nnd still further to strike terror
Into tho hearts of unfortunato pedestrians
wo are told that "every person, other than
a paid drlvor, owner, custodian or em
ploye, desiring to operate a motor vehlclo,
shall mako application to tho State High
way Department for a llcenso card, which
shall bo furnished free of charge to tho
applicant, nnd which shall expire on the
31st of December of tho year In which It
was Issued."

llcenso for the asking nnd without any
knowledge whatsoever of how to manago
a car may run It over nny road nnd every
crowded Btroct In the Commonwealth
until December 31 of the year In which
ho borrowed or rented tho car.
The act docs, It Is true, mention cer
tain rules nnd regulations which oven
owners, renters nnd borrowers of enrs aro
supposed to know enough to observe,
livery car, for Instance, must bo pro
vided with a good nnd sufficient brake,
and It Is Implied that owners nnd renters
of cars which thoy drlo themselves know
whnt a brako Is and how nnd when to
u ?o It.
"Every car must havo n bell or horn
or other signal dovlce, nnd every operator
of a motor vehlclo must sound this bell or
horn when necessary to Insure tho safety
of other users of tho highway.
"Tho unnecessary sounding of bells or
horns or tho unnecessary uso of muffler
cutouts are prohibited.
It is needless to say that what con
stitutes tho "unnecessary uso of muffler
cut-outs" differs with tho skill of tho
driver of tho motor ohlclo. A "paid
operntor," who Ie nn expert, will mako
far less nolso than tho owner or rentor,
who Is not required to understand how
to manago his car.
Tho act specifies very wisely that "no
person shall operato a motor vehlclo reck
lessly," but bo long i.s owners of cars aro
permitted to drlvo them without nny gunr
nntco of their ability to do so, this act
may be considered to condono reckless
ness. Tin speed of a car In tho built-up part

Worth Knowing
An economical way to have fancy Ice
cream was originated by n girl who found
that her bllm purse wouldn't permit her
to serve the dainties which her class
mates served at their Borority parties
She ordered the necessary amount of
bisque Ice cream, took It out of the can
and placed It In a melon mold which her
mother used for Jellies. A mixture of
nuts, chopped maraschino cherries, citron
and fresh fruits was prepared and added
to the cream Then she put it back In the
ice in which It was delivered, and every
one thought it a very expensive novelty.
