    "A WISE HOUSEKEEPER.
She Mixes Brains With Humanity In
Dealing With Her Servant.
Brains and humanity—those are two
qualities every man and weman needs
to possess before it is given to either
of them to have supervision over
others.
The wise housekeeper starts out with
a servant in perfect understanding.
She lets the girl know what is ex-
pected of her, and she keeps faith
with that girl in any promises she
may make.
She does not begin by saying, “It's
just nothing at all to do the work
here,” and then bring four women in
to luncheon on ironing day.
She realizes that the kitchen is the
most important room in hej house and
that when she has ev ing there
running smoothly the rest of house-
keeping is a sweet and simple dream.
She realizes that the person who
feeds a family acceptably and keeps it
comfortable 365 days in the year is en-
titled to some consideration.
Therefore she sees that there is a
comfortable room, with plenty of air,
a good bed, a cheery, pleasant, home-
like place, ready for the girl when
her work ie done.
She arranges her work systematical-
It is a woman like this that keeps the
same help in her home for years and
makes them say of her, “She's a real
lady, she is.”
The girls say that lack of considera-
tion on the part of the women who em-
ploy them is the reason for the revolt
against unspecialized housework.
They say that the general housework
girl is supposed to combine the duties
of cook, waitress, chambermaid, par-
lor maid, laundress, lady's maid, nurse-
maid, bellboy and errand girl.
She is never supposed to be too tired
to respond to the buzz of a bell, and
she is expected to put up with what-
ever accommodations are left after the
rest of the family is comfortably pro-
vided for.
And I believe there is a fairly good
foundation for her complaints. A
whole lot of incompetent, selfish, in-
considerate women are so placed In
the scale of fortune that they can keep
house and “have a girl.” Women of
this type have the idea that the plac-
ing of a girl in the kitchen and pay-
ing her so much a week end their re-
sponsibility as far as housekeeping
goes.— Exchange.
Health aud Beauty.
With the exception of those who di-
rectly inherit some physical disorder,
every women is allowed to start life
with all the machinery of her system
in perfect working order. She begins
the life journey well equipped with all
ghe needs of health and strength—beau-
tiful skin and hair, bright eyes, white
teeth. But, as evening comes, how often
does she find those good things fading.
Shadows are creeping into her face.
Why must the brightness and charm go
80 soon?
It is not that they must. They go be-
cause she has wasted her life dower.
She has carelessly aliowed it to go.
With her glorious inheritance from na-
ture she could have lived through all
these years without disturbing one
charm, only adding to the innocent
thoughtlessness of youth the grace and
dignity of matured womanhood—ad-
vanced womanhood.
The practical side of heaith and beau-
ty is the care one takes of natural
gifts, the free, inimitable beauty that
nature planned and for which there is
no substitute. It is far easier to keep
one's beauty than to restore it. The
rule te keep it is but one—proper liv-
ing.. In this age, as in every other
where beauty was taken into account,
there is plenty of opportunity to abuse
and waste one’s gifts, and women usu-
ally seize it. Besetting every path are
temptations of idleness and ecareless-
ness—that is, to be idle and careless in
looking to one's physical needs. Very
often, by the way, these are crowded
out by the stress of other matters—
business, household, pleasure.
What, then, is proper living? Here
is the formula, the simplest thing in
the world and the hardest to follow:
Regularity of living, early to bed and
early to rise; regular meals and good,
wholesome ones, neither too much nor
too little; regular daily exercise,
enough to set the blood leaping through
the veins; a daily bath, fresh air, sun-
shine, faithful care of the hair, skin
and teeth, no matter how tired one
may be, and, last, a patient, cheerful
heart in spite of the clouds that some-
and every day in the year.—Philadel-
phia Record.
4 Straw Matting.
Opinions differ concerning straw mat-
knows that it is there, for she is wise
in detecting the smell of dust. In fact,
after a straw matting has been laid
some time it is not hygienic as a floor
least half a pailful of dirt was taken
from each room, which to the casual
eye had appeared in neat condition.
The economy of straw mattings is
questionable. If you have an old and
poor floor that cannot be repaired suf-

or painted and you cannot afford to
lay a new floor, then straw matting |

year, and good for the passage of the holder, and any number of
other persons within mileage limit of ticket, on any of the lines of

popular that it has been almost impossible to print them fast enough
to meet the demand, about 200,000 having been distributed at this time.
For business houses which keep a force on the road or which find
it necessary to send men out frequently, the ticket is especially attrac.
