PLUCK WON FOR WOMAN

Th MiUlmr oversea- of tOO women
- Miyslclans under the. nunplcea of the
American women's hospitals to mln
awter to the wonts of France bring
jrteturea to the mind.
In 1845 Elizabeth tflackwell. the
rt woman physician of modern
times, an American, knocked at the
doors of twelve college of medicine,
flldlng- that sho might come In. The
fcnawer was no! Men looked puzzled
, at this strange person who could ho
far forget her womanliness ns to
want to be a, doctor. Then finally In
sheer pity the Geneva Medical Collcgo
admitted our first American woman
doctor. In 1849 she graduated.
KSTi then
A It would hn nice to have the
fact go down In history that nt this
time Dr. Elizabeth niackwell'ii sisters,
the) women of the nineteenth century,
did little things to make her path
eay. But such Is not the case. When
you hear women argue that men have
blocked woman's path In medicine
agree with them. Hut add this. No
drives or mothers of Elizabeth Ulack
vell's day would sit in the same pew
With her when she went to church.
All alone she fought the tight. Today
there are 8000 women doctors. In
America, Always remember this.
They have come Into their own fight
ing the fight of the woman's ns well
as" the professional man's prejudice
against the woman doctor.
IWONDEIt how many of us now can
visualize for an instant the wall
of professional resistance the woman
doctor did have to batter down.
Will Work With Men,
Suffragists Decide
Members of the Woman Suffrage
party In New York city are hereafter
free to pledge themselves to the political
party of Uielr choice without giving up
their membership In their own organiza
tion. A resolution to this effect has been
passed by the suffrage association. For
merly It was necessary for u woman, If
the. wished to affiliate herself with an:
political party, to give up her member
chip and office In the suffrage party.
In explaining the resolution, Mis
Mary Garret Hay. the "boss" of the
"Woman' Suffrage party, said :
"Some persons cannot understand how
we can be nonpartisan In policy and
till permit our officers, leaders and cap
tains to hold office In political parties,"
actually there is a difference In this re
spect between Individuals and societies.
An, Individual may be very partisan, but
an organization that hopes to retain as
members Republicans, Democrats, Pro
hlbltlonlsts and Socialists must have a
nonpartisan policy and must deal with
bread questions like education or those
involving humanitarian principles.
"We who have worked for suffrage
do not wish the enfranchised women
of the city to go off by themselves po
litically, but to Join with the men and
help In the political organizations. The
time has now come to advise our wom
en' and all women to enroll for the pri
maries as good citizens should, nnd if
they are called upon by the men to
take office in the parties to serve them
faithfully and well
"This thiy can do while retaining
their membership in the great civic and
educational organization that the
Woman Suffrage party has now become."

"Hush, Utile Thrift Stamp.

This is the beginning of a little

"Hush, little thrift stamp, don't you

lh"0 1 "ne-hatf Inches apart for
i large onions. In some cases, If possible,
It Is well to Intcrplant with some quick
grow Ing vegetable na lettuce, radishes
and spinach.
If garden peas arc expected lo de
velop a heavy crop they should be
planted early. These are planted in
rows thirty inches apart. Thus a splen
did opportunity Is presented for the
growing of intercrops. Mix the old vines
through the soil to enrich It.
In preparing his garden and laying It
out for the spring and summer crops tho
amateur gardener should bear In mind
that ho has a duty to perform townrd
tho nutumn and winter crops and also
that his woik of this spring has a bear
ing on next spring's crops. In late June
the ground may he prepared for crops
nf utrlnir henna, eahhnee. eeterv. late to
beets, carrots,
radishes, etc.,
parsnips, hlack Spanish
which nre good root-
storage crops.
If this plan Is followed there will be ,
not one week during tho entire spring I
and summer hut that fresh vegetables i
will be available for t,he table or for
sale to less fortunate persons.
Crocheted Cluny Edges
One little bride was ingenious enough
to crochet the edges of a cluny lace
bureau scarf to niako it a little bit
different. The room was in pink, so
it was pink rrochet cotton that wn
used. The effect was so pleasing that
all tho little bride's friends are now
leveling In "crocheted rooms."

They may be sparkllngly clear or they
may be damp and penetrating: but. In

will all agree. Kven If It Is warm

colder. And It Is this fact that makes
the thought of warm, soft nullta or
