was more than strange. Where kindliness

tially excused.

out my host, "you really must take thl3

I did not feel Inclined to contindict a
tatement on such gcod authority. He
certain was huppy that I saw! But In
that strange hilarity I did not wish to
share. So I declined the breathings of the
pprlng, and bronxes could not tempt or
tune mo to his Joyous key.
Tho dinner was an excellent one, viewed
from the point of cooking, but I thought
the liquid portion of the feast hit a
too strong, predominating note.

MISS THEODORA BUTCHER
Head of the Bureau of Occupations for Trained Women.
WOMEN WORKERS DEMANDED
IN VARIOUS OCCUPATIONS
Extension of Field of Their Activity Shown in Wide Range
of Activities Covered by Bureau With
Headquarters at College Club.
In her sunny room at the College Club,
1S00 Spruce street, In front of a large
desk covered with nil sorts and condi
tions of papers, letters and documents,
sat JIlss Theodora Butcher, head of tho
Bureau of Occupations for Trained
Women.
Jn the brief Interludes between the com
pelling ring of tho telephone on hor desk
Miss Butcher talked of the aim nnd ob
Jeet of the bureau.
"The woik we nro most Interested in
here," said she brightly. "Is how we can
get places for people. There Is an In
creasing demand for college women, but
twn college women must havo somo
technical training and before embarking
on social work often have to servo an
apprenticeship.
"We offer quite a variety of positions
here. For Instance, Just now wo are
hunting for a teacher for social dancing
to tench the new steps to church classes!
Whether we will get her or not I do
not know, but we want if possible a col
lege girl, or a oung woman who has had
some experience In social work besides.
"Wo find positions for college women
in secrotnrla! work. In social work. In In
stitutional work In domestic science and
hi household economics,
PIETISTS I.V DEMAND.
"Many institutions wrlto us that they
want ilietlsts to plan out diets for from
;o to 500 persons.
This is a really good
position for a woman to hold, and the
market for such la not by anv means
overcrowded yet. We have aUo many re
quests for superintendents of institutions
and social work investigators.
"Ono thing always amuses us very
much," continued Miss ' Butcher, smiling
remlnUcently. "und that Is that so many
people 010 anxious to Impress us with
the fact that they nro above doing me

WAITRESS FINDS HER
LIFE IN RESTAURANT
JUST TO HER LIKING
Point of View as Shown in
Interview With Young
Woman Whose Interest Is
Centred in Pier Work.
H.
The problems nnd the viewpoints of
life's workers are often hard to get
at, for a certnln curious leserve cllnga
around the outward expression of feeling
nnd Idea Yet the young Waitress gave
her opinion on life nnd on life's tvork
with a genuine sincerity,
"I used to work twelve hours a day,"
sahl she, earnestly, "but since January 1
of this year that has all been changed.
Now I work for eight hours a day, six
days a week, and make at the end of
each week a total of $7.70."
"Don't you find the work very hard?"
"Ycs-and no!" sho replied. "The strain
on tho mind Is tho only thing that I
feel. At the end of tho day's work,
when all the bustlo nnd excitement nro
over, and I am quietly at home, I feel
perfectly limp. Hut It Is my mind that
feels fo limp nnd tired, and not my
body. The work docs not tire me at all
physically."
"I suppose you feci the strain on your
memory that goes on all day long? It
must be hard to recollect and tabulate
all these orders."
"Why, no; that Is not at all dimcult.
What wears so on one Is tho nolso and
the Impatience of tho customers, nnd
tho way they all expect to be attended
to Immediately. When .".0 different per
sons are nil clamoilng for several dif
ferent dishes to bo brought to each of
them at once, and Insisting that 01 cry
dish bo looked a certain way, nnd nil
calling for water, and bicad, and extr.i
folks nnd spoons, and all sorts of
tiling:", one Is apt to get a little bit ner
vous!" "You feet tho nervous stinln?"
I.O'i:S TIIIJ XOIfc'U AXU HUSTLE.
"I do, most ccitnlnly, nnd yet I lovo It
nil tho noise and the rush und the live
liness of It. When Sundays come nround
1 feel .'ib If I really wanted to get back
to work, and not to rest at homo! I
could not got on at nil without mv
worl."
"Yon think tho working life Is tho hup
plest, thin?"
"lit course. It K Why, 1 think It
wouui iiL. tirc.idtul not to work! I am
married, you Know, and my husband doe.s
not can; for mc to work. Hut he sees
that I would not be happy to stay homo
ull day long, with nothing to occupy my
mind, and ho he lets 1110 do this. If I
did not wotk I know I would get so
nei vous and woirled that I would bo com
pletely mlsirahle!"
"You aie wuiMng. then, for work's
sake, nnd also, I suppose, to mnl.o some
extra money?"
"Yps," said the Waitress, enk'orl. "I
save ovcrytnlng 1 innkt, nnd r intend to
help buy a little hnj&e with tho money,
I think that the people who do not work
nro the ones who have all tho Imuglnary
Illnesses, and theso nervous breakdowns,
und who nry aiwnyi worried mid un
liHPpy." "1 suppose ou think It best for tho
working glil to oventunllj marry?"
AHA1NST UAHLY MAKRIAGI3.
"Well," said the Waitress, thoughtful
ly, "In mo.si eases, I would say yes. Hut
no girl should ever marry young! The
liapploHt muii'lagcs ore those which tuko

A SMALL BOY'S SUIT
and If I read a book It arficts me too
keenly. For Instance, I read that book
'The Woman Thou G.ivcst Mc' nnd It
worried me for weeks. I disliked tho
hook very much, but I felt so sorry for
the girl In It, .Mary O'Neill, that It quite
affected my sleep. Then it started me
worrjlng about all the unhapplness that
comes from wrongdoing. Why will peo
ple do wrong? You sec, I am very hap
pily man led, and I have always had such
strong opinions about thnt."
"Do you mean that ou want every
body cls-e to be as happily married aa
yourself?"
The wulttess nodded her head eagerly.
"I have so many unhappily married
friends, and I do not see thnt a book like
tho one 1 mentioned just now does any
good to anybody. Mary O'Neill did wrong,
although the book beems to want to mnko
nut that she did right. So that I thought
it was veiy perplexing and confusing;
and I have not read another book since.
"Anutlur thing I want to bay Is Just
this, 1'eoplo bccm to think that wait
resses 1 1111 around with Tom, Dick und
Hurry all the time. The general idea Is
that men flirt with and make fools of
them all along. This Is quite a mistake.
The attitude the men tnku depends en
tirely upon the girl herself. It rests with
Iwr w bother she will keep up her own
dignity or not. If she rfhpects herself,
the men will certainly respect her."
"And you ically arc devoted to your
work?"
"With nil my heart. If I got the
choice of another Job today I would le
fttso It, nnd stick to the business of
waitress ulwiivs und forever. You sen
so much of life: It Is fin cheerful nnd
bright in the restaurant; tho work Is not
so very hard, and ou feel rewnrded
when the customers are pleased nnd come
buck regularly to your table. I like to
fi'el that I am helping other people, that
they arc appreciating that, and that 1
am ie,ill useful and needed, the only
I thing thnt ninkes life really happy Is to
hi 'net cled by tilhei people!

PRIMROSE A HARDY PLANT;
THRIVES EVEN IN NEGLECT
Stands Greatest Range in Tempcr
nture of Any House Plant.
The primrose Is a Chinese blossom, tut
It has a gallant way of thriving under ne
glect and blooming In adverse conditions
that Is famously characteristic of another
nation.
It will stand a more varied range of
tempernturo than any other house plant.
It will llvo through tho winter, fiom
enily autumn until summer and never for
a day will it be without a flower.
Although It Is such a liaidy little plant,
tho blossom Is delicate enough, a cluster
of small flow eis on ono stem, sometimes
pink and sometimes lavender, nnd, occa
sionally almost a faint blue.
It doesn't depend oil sunshine, nor does
It require shade; It can ho wateied too
much or watered too little and it seems
to adapt luelf to circumstance rather
than to make any demands of its own.

SUITS WITH SHORT
JACKET AND PANTS
Juvenile Fashions Show
Many Attractive Styles
for Boys and Girls Dick
ens Suits Still Popular.
Juvenile fashions are more definite In
form nnd fewer In number than the
modes thnt are designed for women, yet
every season there are changes and Inno
vations that crystallize Into a set style
that last fur a season, at least.
Tho rcady-mndo stilts for little boys
that nro sold In tho Juvenile shops and
In tho department stotcs nro very at
tractive und not expensive. Often it
would be cllfllcttlt, If not Impossible, to
reproduce them nt homo for less than tha
pi Ice asked for tho finished garment.
While there Is not tho variety In little
boys' clothes that theio Is In tho gar
ments made for their small slaters, there
Is always n choice, and always some
thing that Is appropriate to the child and
his occupations.
The little Dickens suit that was so
popular In the spring and summer has
nut yet run Its fashion etiurso, nlthough
the Intter Is not qultf masculine enough
to please some of Its small wearers.
The suit of tho Illustration Is Intended
for a boy of the Itlndergaitcn age nnd a
year or two beyond. ,
It Is made with the short mat kntfwn
as tho bolero, which Is very much llko
the regulation Kton coat, only that it
lacks the point at the back and Is not
fitted to the figure.
It has the separate knickers, doar to
the boyish heart, nnd Is worn with a shirt
of a kind that might belong to nltnost
any age, rollnr nnd cuffs Included.
The buttons and tho small pockets of
the coat are distinctive features of tho
suit that will be sine to endear It to the
small wearer, nlthotich the buttons are
purelv ornamental nnd the pockets nro
us little practical as It Is possible for a
pocket to be.
The Hiilt Is one that would be very serv
ice able If it Were ni-nle of serge "of tho
shade of blue that will stand so much In
the way of wear and tear.
It would be very effective In velveteen
or In
the soft cniduioys used so much
for children's clothes.
