A Status of Women. 1 V Harriet Johnston Wood re cent delivered an address on "The Legal Jtatus of Women in New Jer sey" before the Essex County Suf frage Society, in which she held that the early right of suffrage possessed ty women of New Jersey still existed. Mrs. Wood advised the women of New Jersey to .go to the polls to register, and it prevented to take the ase to court. They must be pre , pared to fight the case to the Su preme Court of the United States, where she did not believe they would fall. Mrs; Wood is a lawyer practlc fn New York City. New York Sun. Ought Wives Object to Clnbs? A great many folk think that after marriage a man should not go to bis luh In the evening. The sensible girl who wants to be happily married Will never seek to curtail her hus band's liberty. It stands to reason 'that a mad likes men's society occa sionally, even though he Is devoted to his wife. He needs change of scene, change tof Ideas and a different outlook on life to make him doubly pleased with Bis home surroundings. An evening t the club is the best thing in the (world to keep things bright at home, nd when a wife interferes with her busband's liberty she shows she does To Truss a Chicken. o On ft j & 4) Urn 3 a. much more attractive when ready for serving. I have seen a roast turkey brought to a table with both the legs and wings in awkward positions and the long neck lying over the end of the platter. This is the correct way to truss a bird: Draw thighs close .to the body, and hold by Inserting a steel skewer under the middle Joint, running it through the body. It should come out under the middle Joint on the other side. Cross drumsticks, tie securely with a long string, leaving two ends of equal length, and fasten to the tall. Place wings close to the body (having the tip ends removed, remember), nd hold them by inserting a skewer through the wing, bodf and the wing on the other side. Draw the neck skin undef the back, and fasten with a small skewer. Turn the bird on its breast Cross string attached to the tall piece, and draw around each end of lower skewer, again cross string and draw around each end of upper skewer; fasten string in a knot, and cut off ends. This may seem like a long story, but it Is not so difficult after all. tot trust him. Loss of trust means 11 sorts of trouble, and is often the precursor of the ominous "rift within the lute." Heme Notes. Suffragettes Favor Flirtation. The question whether married couples should flirt Is now agitating uffragettes In England. Lady Mc Laren, author; Lady Troubridge and Mrs. Elizabeth York Miller, author, all agree that flirtation is an excellent thing, provided It is confined to the family. They do not think that a man should flirt with another wom an' husband. They believe only In .flirtation between husband and wife. 'Concerning this kind of flirtation Mrs. Miller pungently says: "Flirting ought to be spontaneous; nothing oould be more ridiculous than mar ried people flirting determinedly. Husbands should flirt with their wives, as women miss flirtation more than men after matrimony. Flirta tion consists in an occasional kiss, a frequent holding of hands, a spirit of tenderness and chivalry, and a tud'y of the other's interests and feelings. Flirtation Is the panacea of all married people's troubles. All husbands and wives should cultivate it." Latest Deceit. "You must not imagine," said the woman of the world, "that Just be cause the camera is of necessity truthful one can depend upon the veracity of a photograph. One can't. The very latest conceit, I may say de celt, of the fashionable photographer seems to be worth telling about "Now, JuBt about once In her life woman gets a picture that satisfies her, and I don't mind confessing that when it is my picture I want It to be fulsome flatterer. I know one wo man who had her one faultless pic ture taken ten years ago. She has now reached that painful period when birthdays are no longer hila rious occasions, and the picture is out of date in the matter of sleeves and hair. So when she felt recently ithat It was time to pay another visit to the photographer, she sought out the one who had treated her so well ia decade ago. She took with her & print of the old negative, and she Tiad herself posed in precisely the came attitude. This was for the hair and dress of the new picture. As to the face, I don't know by what mys terious means the photographer ac complished it, but the face was lifted from the old picture and put Into the new one a picture that Is entirely . satisfactory. The . hair and sleeves of the new picture are of 1910 model, and the face doesn't look a bit 'younger than when the subject is In tar own room ' .with sidelights and rose colored shades. Furthermore, the woman is so proud of it that she makes no bones of telling how the thing was done. She says it's every woman's privilege to be the age sho chose for insertion in her marriage license and for her best photograph, even If she can't blot out the' record in the family Bible." New York Press. Women Who Listen Carefully. The person who can talk entertain ingly and listen attentively is the best type of guest at social gatherings, for she who chatters Incessantly is al most more undesirable than one who is too quiet for the latter gives op portunity for other persons to express themselves, while the former to say even one word Is often a struggle. The balance between these ex tremes Is the art of stimulating a temporary companion to conversation, and at no place Is It more important to adopt the correct attitude than at a dinner. More than one man has been obliged to talk so much when sitting beside a quiet woman that he has not eaten enough. Such conduct on the part of a woman Is decidedly inconsiderate, for it she Is not willing to add her quota to the evening's en tertainment she should stay at home. At dinners and also at formal luncheons It is a good idea to watch the plates of neighbors, and If one person bas been talking so imuch as to have fallen behind In the course it is tactful to take conversation Into one's own hands, giving the other a chance to listen and at the same time to eat. It Is not good form to monopolize the attention of one neighbor to such an extent as to prevent him or her from talking with the person on the other side. Often It is a temptation If a bird is properly trussed it looks when on one side is an attractive per son and on the other one who is dull, but politeness makes dividing the at tention necessary. If one person is kept constantly in conversation by one neighbor at a dinner It means that he or she on the other side sits much of the time with no one to talk to, for the guest farther on is certainly giving some time to the person on his or her other side.
