As the holiday season approaches,
the housewife naturally begins to
make her plans for the dainty viands
with which she is to make happy
those of the household and begins
to wonaer wnat :ne market lias m
store for her.
So far as the substantial of life
are concerned there is not a great
deal of variation, either in kind or
price. Carrots, beets and parsnips
are plentiful at prices ranging from
2J4 to 5 cents per, pound. Wax anT
snap beans right from the Louis
iana market are offered at IS to
cents per pound and nice, crisp
breakfast radishes at 5 cents per
bunch. Celery, head lettuce, endive
and parsley are being offered at
three bunches for 10 cents; cauli
flower, 12'5 cents per head, and
some fine fresh California tomatoes
at the same price. Nice, crisp onions,
fresh and green,( are offered at 5
cents per bunch, 'while the winter
varieties are being sold three pounds
for 10 cents Fresh cucumbers
range in price from 10 to 20 cents,
according to size, while cranberries
are jumping out of sight and are
being priced all the way from WA
to 20 cents per pound.
But when it comes to fruits, we
feel a little encouraged, for there
are nice navel oranges right, from
California at prices ranging from
50 to 60 cents pei1 dozen, grape fruit
bells at S cents each, and lemons go
ai 30 to 40 cents per dozen.
Delicious apples are a little hard
hearted, however, and are up to
$4.25 per box, but other varieties
ere perhaps a little lower than
usual.
There are a fine lot of nut nf all
kinds in the market for the holiday
season and arf being quoted at
leasonable prices. Mixed nuts. 30
cents; English walnuts, 40 cents;
Brazils, 40 cents; soft shelled al
monds, 35 cents, and filberts 25 cents
per pound.
The hens are working overtime
nowadays and have brought the
market down a notch or two, guar
anteed fresh ones selling now for
70 cents, and select storage eggs at
54 cents per. dozen. Butter, on the
other hand, is a little the best prod
uct, selling for 68 to 72 cents and
second quality at 55 to 60 cents per
pound. j
I Chicken is quite plentiful and is
bejng sold at 27 cents per pound,
dressed, while the best steak and
veal chops are being offered at 30
to 35' cents per pound. Dealers
say there will be plenty of turkey
for the Christmas trade, but are not
able to quote prices at this time.
All they can say is that it will be
high.

Perhaps '
Some day, when on exultant feet you come y
Back through the streets that blossom at your tread.
My soul will thrill to hear the throbbing drum,'
And yet, perhaps, I'll stand with, drooping head ;
Not caring, quite, to let you meet my gaze,
Not daring, quite, to look into your eyes
Afraid, because a weary stretch of days,
Each one a million years, between us lies.
My heart? My heart is ever yours to hold,
And yet, while I have waited here for you
You have seen faith betrayed, and brave youth sold,
You have seen meadows drenched in bloody dew.
It may .ave changed you, and your eyes may be
A little harder when they look at me !

Of Interest to Women
v '
Kansas has upwards of 100 women
physicians.
The population- of Sweden in
cludes many more women than men.
Although women have had the lo
cal parliamentary vote in Australia
for a number of years, ranging from
2i years in South Australia to 10
years in Victoria, and the national
suffrage for 16 years, they have not
accomplished as much in regard to
certain measures of reform as wo
men in other lands have accomplish
ed without the vote. This peculiar
ondition ot affairs is accounted for
largely by the different methods oi
working adopted by the Australian
women, "hut more especially by the
influence of party politics.

Every soldier who has been in
France, whether he be Poilu, Tom
my or '.Yank, v knows "Madelon."
Madelon is eternal romance and
she is translated into each national
ity's ideal. "Madelon" is one of th
most popular of all the songs of
war. When the A. E. F. arrived,
saw, and conquered France, it was
simultaneously conquered by "Mad
elon." For-a while the boys tried
to sing the French version. Then
some one took, pity on the song and
translated it. Madelon in the trans
lation is still romance, but she is
made to fit American ideals. She
now is a part of the official song
book. Here is the official translation
bv Frances C.'Fav:
V. l. - .
Below the camp where merry soldiers
muster, ,
There is an inn they -fall "The Pol-
lus' Rest" '
A modest house whose walla with lv
cluster,
Hard by the sheltering woods a coxy

The girl who walta on ,ua la

Like sparkling wine her eyes
In fun.

teasing
She a only known aa Madelon.
All through our dreams at night, all
through our day's dull chance,
She'a only Madelon, perhaps but she'l

Chorus
Whei Madelon comes . tripping to oui

We boldly pluck her skirt aa she goei

And each one whispers low his prattj

Our Madelon la not a aurly beauty.

She laughs, that's all, and feels sAe'i

Well, ev'ry soldier has at home hit

Declared his love, then vowed she was

And boldly said he came to ask her

She laughed, and showed a pretty
