HOUSEWIVES AN1) GROCERS The cost of living, Us Increase or decrease, has been always a social problem. It is interwoven througk out the fabric of all history; it has befco^the underlying cause of all the migrations of the human race, which have been and will always be based upon the primitive and instinctive de sire to improve physical conditions of existence. Hence. If the problem be at present acute, at it appears In Eng land or on the European continent. It is not novel. Mother Earth must al ways supply the answer. It is for the inhabitants thereof to make the ap plication, through the familiar eco-^ nomic forms of production and dis tribution. But now appears the president of a retail grocers' association In Ohio who ventures the statement that the true reason for the higher cost of liv ing is the perversity of woman. This Iconoclast would indict the house wives of a nation of idleness. Not to the large production of stfld and the decrease of its purchasing power, not to the trusts, not to cold forage, not to railway freights, not toi local com binatlonikof retail dealersJiut to fem inine, aVersion to work /would this amateur economist attribute the high er bills of the kitchen and of the din ing room. There its in this accusation some measure of truth, but not all the truth. In days of yore, the dis pensing angel of the household bought almost solely the ra* materials upon which to exercise her culinary art, and the yet more subtle skill of at tractive sewing. In these days, the delicatessen shops have extended from big cities to small, and are not unknown in the villages. The gro cers themselves sell many kinds of near-foods that require little prep aration before their appearance upon the table; and all of these ready-to use devices Increase the ratio of ex pense to nutritive value. The in portaat point is that resort to their use means a saving of woman's time: and the real question la, what use does woman make of this economy In her house? There is no doubt that in many caaea the time thus saved is other wise profitably employed. These de vices make matrimony possible to many working women and men, be cause they enable wives to add by their own efforts to the family In come. But If the economy of hours In housework Is wasted in idleness or dissipated in shopping, of course this pleas fails most abjectly. In that case, the reminder ia pertinent that these prepared foods would be better If made at h tfnie. assuming, of course, that the housewife has the requisite Skill. But in any case, it Is not for the retail grocer to utter a protest, since ft Is he and his ltind who, for their own profit, extend with selfish diligence the delicatessen habit. ? Washington post. "* "|.A1>V AN? WOMAN. The controversy which has arisen over the proposed designation of young women wage-earners as "young lady employees" in further enlivened by the statement of a "prominent clubwoman" that she Is "not a lady" and is only angered when .called so. "The definition of ladyjsJ as she understands It, "Is a female who has neither the brains to think with nor hands to work with." Every woman to her taste. But It ' is to be said that the indiscriminate application of the term "lady" t"o all of the sex, whether or not they come within the category of "women of refined or gentle manners, senti ments, 4c.," is ill-advised. Curiously enough, the use of the word hasjiedr much more restricted in this eountry. where no rank exists, than in Eng land, where lady is a title of nobility, but where ?" Imly detectives" and "lady b.'gamhits" exist along with "lady mayoresses," and w.here "young ladles" advertise In the news papers for positions as waitress or milliner. With us, on the contrary, tke employment of the word becomes More and more llmtted. It has even era? < from ferryboat cabins, ? & * tr-t .. ; ?nd no doubt la time It will go from hotel parlora. : ? "When Adam dolve, and Bvo span. Who wu than the gentleman?" And who la the lady when both sexes labor aide by side In the office or fac tory? The main thing la tho devel- 1 opment of eelf-reapncUns woman hood. It U only necessary to niter WordeworCa'a? A perfect woman-, nobly planned, To warn, to comfort and command, to "a perfect lady," ftc., to realise the. absurdity of the argument for "lady omployeea." 8TAMMKRIXG AND ITS CI RE. The stammerer la simply a person who does not know how to talk. He must be taught in somewhat the same way as 4 person la tautfht to play on the violin ? so we are told by Dr. G. Hudson-Makuen, of Philadelphia, in a paper on the subject read before the State Medical Society and now is sued in pamphlet form. Such Instruc tion Involves putting the patient's vocal organs Into good order, of course, but this treatment is not the radical part of the cure. All sorts of so-called ''cures" abound, but they are mostly based, the writer tells us, uti Imperfect Ideas' uf the ? maladyr1 He says: "It has been estimated that there are upward of 300,000 stammerers in the United States alone. - It is Quite* probable that about one-fourth of the entire number would overcome their defect of their own accord* or at least with the* little help that always j comes from interested frieiids, but the remaining thr^iftfurths present a very different problem. "Stammerers are inot alike, except in a few characteristics, and they re quire, therefore, a certain amount of individual treatment. Our experi ence with the one one-fourth of the entire number, to whom I refer as be ing easily cured and to whom the grain of truth might prove adequate, can, of course, form no criterion as to a basis for the general treatment of stammering, but nevertheless, be cause of the great ease with which these exceptional few are manage^ Inexperienced observers have reached false conclusions and formulated so tailed 'methods' of^t real men t which are misleading, fallacious, and even absurd. "For instance, a stammerer is told tc uod bis head whenever be speaks, and because this procedure happens In his particular case to divert his attention tuBctoatly lone to*enable him to speak freely for a time, .he thinks he has made a discovery and he immediately evolves a theory and MUblUhw an Institute with a secret 'method' whtch consists solely la nod ding the head In unison with the na tural rhythm of speech. "Another advises beatific time with the forefinger and thumb, or with the hand and arm or with the* foot during the process of speaking, 'and each one of these schemes has been dignified as a 'method' which has ifeen dispensed for a considera tion, and under bonds of^ecrecy. Ex periences siml lac to this have gen erally been the starting point of the numerous 'methods' which have been promulgated, from time to time, and which have resulted only in confu sion to the many really severe stam merers who have been seeking re lief. "There is even now a separate and distinct method which characterises nearly every school and teacher en gaged in this Tiork, and these meth ods in many instances amount to lit tle more than tricks, to beguile the stammerer into freedom of speech, while his mind is preoccupied with something else. - "It is well known, of course, that many people stammer under certain conditions largely because they thihk they will. All their past experiences with speech have combined to con firm them In the thought; and it soon ? becomes a sort of 'fixt idea.' It la. nothing for which the stammerer ! should be censured, because it is a j perfectly natural consequence, and! the idea or notion that he will stam mer under certain conditions will re main fixed until it has been sup planted by absolute confidence In his ability to speak freely under all con ditions. ? "That this confidence can be ac quired in nearly all cases is my firm belief, but to be absolute the confi dence must carry with it the ability. It is not enough for the patient to think that he can do it or even to1 know that he can do It, but he must know thai he knovfe he can do It." CItACKLl.V Hit ICAI) A.Vl> DIVORCE. (Washington post.)

When the hearing was had the judge Interrupted counsel for plain tiff, who was denouncing the defend ant for providing cracklin' bread, with: "Mr. Attorney, dij) you ever eat cracklin' bread?" to which the limb of law replied with emphasis, indig nation, and disgust, "Certainly not!" But his honor bad, and adjudged that in the "imperial Commonwealth of Missouri" courts must not b? trifled with by alleging such frivolous causes of action as cracklin' bread a ground for divorce. Properly made, properly baked, and at the proper season of the year cracklin' bread is the very beet bread in jthe world, and throws an additional joy over that delightful season, "hog-killing .time" In the country, where they know what good eating' Is. It ekes out lye hominy, crisp biscuit, salt-rising toast; and for a change it is an admirable and delicious substitute for hoe cake. Eaten with -vyarerlb, backbone, cbinebone, aausage, hoghead, or pig feet, cracklin' bread Is glorious. The cracklings are the residuum after the lard has been rendered. Mixed with sure-enough corn meal and turned into batter, with the akl of milk and water mixed, and baked in a quick oven until thoroughly done and brown as toast, and then eaten with fresh yellow butter and sweet milk, crackliir bread will make even liver hash luxury. 1 ' Nobody but a bargarlan would al-' lege cracklin' bread as ground for divorce in a Christian community like 'imperial Missouri."
