Misener has as her guests this week, Mrs. Birch and Miss Mildred Birch of Chicago. The Woman's Party continues its spectacular and disloyal picketing of the president to the distress: of the other, saner suffrage organizations. Mrs. Richard Edwards, president of the Woman's Franchise League of Indiana, said today: "In spite of our frequent statements calling attention to the fact that our organization disapproves of he picketing, 1 am in des
pair of making people understand that .wo have tried in every way to stop them, but that since we are entirely different organizations, opposed In principle and practice, we cannot control their behavior. They are few and we are many, and they seriously im- ' pair the suffrage cause. We most emphatically do not picket, do not use nor believe in militant methods and in every way are supporting, not attacking, the president and the gov'ernment. Ex-President Roosevelt once said that every big public movement had its 'lunatic fringe.' That is what the pickets of the Woman's Party are the 'lunatic fringe' of the euffrage movement." Mrs. Felix Subject and son, Henry, of San Bernardina, Calif., and Miss Ruth Strohm, of Dennison, O., are guests this week of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Strohm, 408 North Thirteenth street. As a courtesy to John Calvin of Washington, D. C, members of the Y. M. I. club gave a dance last evening in the Y. M. I. club rooms.

Mrs. Frederick Hicks has returned from a two weeks' outing at Cedar Point, O. The Four Corner Club will meet Saturday afternoon with Mrs Joseph Taylor at her home, 72 South Twelfth street.
THE CIRCLE ! and baked and spun flax and made the v I family garments and cooked and swept John Ferrol came home wearing the uy rmenis of whom
look of a man who has asked for a
raise and been refused. Moreover, he detested, loathed, abhorred and despised lamb stew, and lamb stew was set before him at dinner. Edith Ferrol, his wife, had come home wearing the look of a woman who had needed a good time, and got it. Lily Blake, who had given Mrs. Ferrol her good time, had also given her some wise advice about asking her husband for a regular allowance of house money and the wherewithal for her personal needs. Edith, still under the heartening influence of her neighbor, was resolved to do so. It will readily be seen that the Ferrols' moods did not harmonize. Virginia Ferrol, aged eight, spread her schoolbooks on the table when dinner was cleared, and interrupted Dad four times to ask how much it would cost to buy five and one-half
yards of silk at $3.75 per yard. When Ferrol had laboriously figured it out on the back of an envelope, Virginia
remarked that "they did examples dltferently" and the teacher would give her a bad mark if she handed in th sum that way. It did not Improve Papa Ferrol's temper to have little Jack climb on his chest and crush his last cigar. And when a delivery man left a bulky bundle at the door with the demand "C. O. D. $3.87" and Edith asked her husband if he would please pay it, he wanted to know why in thunder they needed a new hall runner. Remembering Lily Blake's admonition to keep a bold front and to remember that "women are just as important in this world as men and maybe a little more," Edith explained that the old grass rug had worn through in several places and the children kept tripping in the holes.
"Then why can t you mend It? said Ferrol, while the delivery man shifted to the other foot 'and wondered when
he'd get home to his corned beef and greens. "Everything's thrown away nowadays as soon as it's a little worn. My mother used to Datch things. My grandmother " "You may take the parcel back," said Edith Ferrol, giving the delivery man his deliverance. He grunted and withdrew. Edith turned to John: "I know, John, that your grandmother wove her own rugs, and brewed
died. Many things have changed since vonr grandmother's day, including the
handling of money. Now, you kiddies run into the living room with your books and things. Mother ana Dad want to go over some accounts." John Ferrol turned impatiently. "I cannot be annoyed with accounts tonight, Edith. I'm in no mcod for disputes." "I don't wish to dispute, Jack. I only want to show you the Impossibility of running the house without knowing how much I. dare spend. In your grandmother'B day people lived with little actual money. They raised and made and bartered things. Now It is different. I cannot exchange homespun for potatoes and meat. I must have monev."
"I have told you, Edith, that I give you all I can spare." "It isn't that I want more; it's that I want it regularly an allowance." "There you go again on your hobby" cried Ferrol. "I consider that a man is the handler of finances. My job is to earn and expend the money. Yours is to attend to the house and the chil
dren." Edith controlled her aesire to burst into tears of exasperation. "We argue in a circle, John," she said. "You won't give me an allowance because I cannot manage money economically. The reason I cannot be more economical is because I have no regular allowance. I never know when
I'm going to have any money, sso i have to run up bills. If I had only $15 a week, John, but had it regularly and didn't have to ask for it, I could save I don't know how much!" "I can take care of the saving, Edith. I keep up my insurance and my bank balance such as it is," he added with a lapse of moodiness, remembering his failure to get the raise.
"I asked Harmon for more money to-
CHEMIST AT OXFORD DISCOVERS NEW ALL AMERICAN DRUG
OXFORD, O.. Aug. 22. Dr. Lambert Thorp. Cincinnati chemist, who for the last six weeks has been conducting experiment at Miami University laboratories, today announced that he had discovered a synthetic drug to take the place of the German drug, veronal, a sleep-producer. - The new drug, yet to be named, is ail-American. Dr. Thorp says it is a white crystaline substance; that three-fifths of it will do the work of veronol, and that It is more active in Its effect. Dr. Thorp says that the real difficulty in making drugs to take the place of German preparations is not In securing the basic raw materials, but the Intermediates. The reason for
this is that American chemists have never gone very extensively into organic chemistry, though they boat the world in inorganic chemistry. Last year Dr. Thorp discovered a locul anaesthetic which is now taking the place in this country of the great
German preparation, novocane. He will leave . here Saturday for a few weeks' rest in Canada, and upon his return will take up the work of making a substitute for the German headache remedies, .asperin and kindred drugs.

Dear Mrs. Thompson I am a young man nineteen years old. I am escorting a young girl. I should like to know whether the man'should be on the outside or inside when walking with a girl. Should a young man smoke when in the presence of ladies? What time should a young man call on a young lady in. the evening and when phould he leave? Should a girl go with another boy when she is engaged? GREENHORN. Walking on the outside when with a young girl js supposed to be proper in this country, but the custom came from an old English habit. The men walked on the out6ide to protect the woman which was necessary owing to the conditions. It is just as proper to walk on the inside as the outside. A young man should riot smoke in the presence of women unless Re has asked the permission of every woman In the room. If you can do just as well without it it would be better and more considerate not to smoke. It is customary for a young man to call on a girl about 8 o'clock or a little before and leave at 10. A girl should not go with another boy when she is engaged.
Dear Mrs. Thompson I am a young married woman and have a four-months-old baby. My husband is working out of town. I would like to go

I do not think people would have any reason to talk if your conduct were worthy of a married woman, but I think it would be better for you not to go because of your young baby and because of certain obligations to your husband. If your husband does not object and you have no other means of getting out yen might go occasionally, but it would be better if you could find ways of amusement with your women friends.

Hair is by far the most conspicuous thing about us and is probably the most easily damaged by bad or careless treatment. If we are very careful
in hair washing, wc 7-ill have virtually i
no hair troubles. An especially fine shampoo for this weather, one that brings out all the natural beauty of the hair, that dissolves and entirely removes all dandruff, excess oil and dirt, can easily be used at trifling expense by simply dissolving a teaspoonful of Canthrox (which you can get at any druggist's), in a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so it Is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top
of the head. This chemically dissolves j all Impurities and creates a soothing, cooling lather. Rinsing leaves the scalp spotlessly clean, soft and pliant, '
while the hair takes on the glossy richness of natural color, also a fluffiness which makes it seem much heavier than it is. After Canthrox shampoo, arranging the hair is a pleasure. Adv.

Time was when there were a number of Waist makers turning out Waists of character to sell for $1 .00 . One by one they have dropped out with the increase in production costs, until now the Wirthmor stands alone in
the $1 .00 Waist field. Many of the materials out of which these favored Waists are being made costs today fully 1 00 more 'than they did a year ago, and were it not for the fact that these materials were contracted for by the maker before these advances were effected,

Don't Let Soap Spoil Your Hair
When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure end entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dire and dandruff. Adv. '
