The Girl Who Annoys
Little Chats" During Rush Hours Is an
Obnoxious Pest
ONE bf tho busiest men In tho onico wherq I work held Ills hand over the
mouthpiece of his telephone, tho receiver being olT, pulled a faeo 111 which
neony and anger fought for mastery, bawled nn almost Justifiably Irreverent
phrnso nhd supplemented It with:
"Can't something bo done to stop girls calling men lip nt the busiest tlmo
ot the day?" Sho says sho didn't call tip for anything in particular but Just
felt llko Wing a cozy llttlo chat." Ho then removed his hand nnd spoko
frigidly Into tho dlstanco:
"X am very sorry, Miss illank, but wo nro Just golttjf to press and I'm nfruhl
I can't chat Just now."
bown Went tho receiver. Tho busy man who In his "oft" moments la a
popular bachelor, plunged into tho frtiy than which there Is Mono moro frenzied
edition tlmo In a newspaper oillce, and doubtless forgot tho Incident for tho
nonco, nt any rate.
Hut I am sure that If the yomiK woman who uhoso tho tmpropltloua time
for her chat via the wire has any serious expectations regarding this man she
has seriously endangered them. Mm don't llko women Who uro so llRlit-hendeil
and bo ellly ns to oxpeet them to Interrupt a business deal which may mean j
money to them for tho wuko of nn Inconsequential talk.
Tho day has passed when a woman, no matter how charming, eould "got
cway with" anything liko this. It iloejit'l Hatter tho mascullno sex In tho least
to bo made tho object of such llttlo attentions us these. On tho contrary, It an
noys thorn exceedingly. Thero nro times when they wish to bo let nlono, and
ofllco hours Is ono of them.
On tho whole, It seems to me that tho modem woman In her new found

I UnW ot ono man who has received threo notes from' tho same girl In tho
last weok asking him to call on her. Ho answered tho first two with a legitimate
excuse for declining previous engagements. He declined her third Invitation
from sheor disgust, desplto tho fact that his first Impression of tho girl was a
x'cry favorable ope, and ho had hoped to seo moro of her.
Many games nro played within this great game of life, nono moro Inter

But unless a woman is very, very subtlo and very, very clover, I wouldn't advise
her to cast herself In tho rolo of- tho hound. M'LISS.

Dear Jl'tlss I would appreciate very
much If ,you would kindly tell mo how
I can clean gray broadcloth spots.
AN "ECONOMIZER."
The method employed to take spots from
tray broadcloth will depend, of course, on
what caused the spots. If they are grease,
an expert says the spot should bo placed
face down.upon a thick cloth and alcohol or
irasollno poured through. Dab with a swab
of cotton soaked In tho lluld. Tho Id -a
Is to rub the spot out, not In. Caro should
bo taken to prevent Ignition. If they are
mud spots, tho garment should he let
alone until the mud is dry. It should then
,be brushed out with a light motion, or
rub lightly out with a bit of coarse vel
vet. The garment should then be stretched
smooth and spread with a cream of
French chalk, starch and alcohol. When
this Is dry, brush once more and the
Btaln should go with it. I would not ad
Vise an amateur to attempt to remove fruit
stains.
Dear M'Llss Will you kindly publish
In your' paper how I can clean the follow
ing articles- "Light blue down uullt"
"white taffeta dress" and "white net
dress." Also how to take tho Slilno from
the back of a cloth skirt. Mrs. 11 M. -

Ignites Just from friction, but I am told
that a light quilt can bo satisfactorily
cleaned with gasoline two baths of a
gallon each. The worst of the dirt .should
bo taken out with thu ilrst b.tth. and the
second Is moro in tho nature of a rinse.
The fluid should lie squeezed out, the quilt
taken out of doors and shaken and then
hung out to dry and air.

There are many ways of removing slilno
from a cloth skirt, nono of which removes
for a very great length of time, If tho
garment Is much worn. Two ounces of
vinegar In n pint of water rubbed over
-the shine, If tho material is .dark. Is said
to be effective. A tahlcspoonful of am
monia In a pint of water rubbed lightly
over the shino before pressing Is another
remedy.
My tailor, however, declares there Is
no real remedy. Ho uses emery paper tn
raiso the nap of the cloth whero tho shine
is. Tho ' removal of the shine by this
treatment is very, very temporary, as I
know from experience. lasting about four
days, when lo, one has a shiny skirt again.

Your Daughter's Hair
A child's hair should receive tho very
best of attention from the first downy
growth to Hie long-curl stage. Ordinarily
it should not ho washed ofteuer than
once every month. Then hot water should
ho used, and a foamy lather of good soap.
Dry well, especially nt this time of the
year, when there is so mucli danger of
catching cold. Artificial means should not
be necessary, becauso It only takes, "an
hour or so to dry a child's hair with
bath towels. A sunbath makes the hair
live and well, but see that tho youngster
is well covered. Hub a few drops of
castor oil in blonde hair, or olive oil In
the brunette, If you seo there is a ten
dency toward extreme dryness.
Teach the tiny misa that the best way
to have line, lustrous tresses Is by look
ing nfter them, herself. She will soon
learn to brush them dally, giving her
strokes, if th&y do not total up to the
fabled hundred, with the Idea of making
her hair shiny. An expert says that where
tlie hair Is veTy thick and fine a half
inch should be clipped off the hair every
month up to the age of 12. anyhow. The
vitality of a normal child's hair growth
can stand this easily. If you find that
this growth becomes thinner In the spring
or fall, don't be alarmed, it is a natural
proceedure. and not at ull harmful.

who used It as u pseudonym during years
of faithful, fine work In our ranks, hhe
went to her well-worn reward a year and

an abiding place in the memories of us
all. A thrill of pleasure runs through tho '
heart In recognizing In your letter tno ,
selfsame spirit that animated her words
and works. We welcome you to the In-
nenuost of our liniie circle In her name
and for your own worthy deeds. The old .
lady who asked for tatting patterns will I

Silk Pieces to Donate
"I havo a few silk pieces In pale shades
to offer. MllS. It. J."
Silk pieces are ever in demand and
readers who work them up Into duvets,
etc.. comprehend the advantage of the
lighter Hhades Z one would have the
patchwork really artistic in effect. Hold
yours until ynu are Informed through the
mail that they are called for.
Her First Kcqucst
"In your Corner I noticed that Mrs. J. P.
offered somo white muslin squares fixii
inelies, outlined to bo worked In colored
threads. I should llko thoso pieces very
much. This Is the first favor I have ever
asked of the Corner. I sent threo books
to V. S., and received such a dear llttlo
letter from her. t read your Coiner every
day and watch for opportunities to help
tho good cause along. MILS. A. S. J."
The address of tho donor was given so
many times that 1 publish your want In
the hope that ou may get other whlto
muslin squnres after your letter appears
in our Corner. It is good to read of the
"dear little letter" that acknowledged one
of your repeated kindnesses to our mem
bers. It is a comfoit alto lo bo assured
that you read tho Corner every day and
with an eyo to tlie opportunities that will
surely present themselves lo this form
of "watchful waiting."
Oll'ers Patterns and Hooks
"Mrs. W. A. W. asks for silk ond velvet
pieces. I am anxious to dispose of some
that I have. Mrs. Lyclla 11., whoso ad

broidery patterns or fancy-work books. So
I still have these to offer, together with
a tinted centrepiece for embroidery. I
havo a crepe de chine waist that Is pulling
ut tlie seams. Is there a icmedy for this:
"MltS. V. E. A."
We offer tho embroidery patterns and
fancy-work books to Corner readers and
would aslt you to keep thein until you
hear from somo of them. Tho waist
Is pi-obnbly too tight somewhere. It it
were larger you might take in the st,ralucd
seams.
Asks for Kar Trumpet
"I saw the offer of a small ear trumpet.
I am mi old lady with a small Income, so
can't think of buying one. I mil only par
tially deaf and will be glad to get an ear
trumpet. I have a pair of eyeglasses I

fered by Mary It., if tills has not been

Mary It. has received the glasses. In
any case we could not have let your barter
them for the trumpet. I hope and believe
that you will get one "for love's sake."
Thanks for the Stamps
"I just received tlie letter you so kindly
forwarded to mo from Hello C who said
she had glasses. I wrote and thanked
her. as I have received glasses from an
other Cornerlte. I offered to return tlie
postage, but she said it was so little, and
that I had spent moro on my other

It is a little, but you may bo able to use

Thank you for the pleasing little sketch
of the correspondence with Miss O. C. j
Tlie btamps are most gratefully received, i
We need them more than correspondents
who "Just forget to inclose" one can

that the muslin squares are no longer in

Let Her Alone a While
"Dear Miss Hlnkc I nm 24 years of
age. of good habits and a neat dresser.
About live months ago I met a young lady
In nn Informal way. I havo since taken
her to shows and dances, but 1 always
have a hard tlmo to mako an engagement
with her. When I speak of a future even
ing call sho does not agree to It, but asks
1110 to call her up on a certain day and
sho will let mo know. This happens
almost Invariably ; sho always says that
sho doesn't know what arrangements tho
girls havo made, sho admits that sho has
other gentlemen friends sho goes out with,
and ono In particular who calls twice a
week, but sho says he Is only n good
friend and that it Is no love affair.
"When I nm in her company at times
sho is friendly nnd affectionate, but no
spooning; at other times sho is distant
and acts as though I am somo one to fear.
The first time wo were out together sho I
took my arm. Since then I havo always
had Co tako hers. As I understand It, it is
tlie lady's place to tako tho gentleman's
arm. Is this right?
"I think u great deal ot this young lady
and havo always treated her as a lady and
have done nothing that I know of to cause
her to act as sho does. Sho puts mo off
sometimes as long as two weeks on calls,
and I have como to bellevo that sho waits
to seo if others call her, and if thoy do
sho goes out with thorn, and If they do
not. then I am good enough for an evening
with nothing elsa to do.
"I have told her a couple of times that
I thought that she thought mo a pest and
Just went out with me to satisfy mo and
that I was going to do her a favor and
not call her any more. Then she would
say that kind of a remar' icalled
for and that If she didn't ln.o m company
sho would not be afraid to tell ine.
"If you can tell mo from tho Informa
tion I have given as to what you think
of my case I am going to quit calling on
her unless sho acts differently or unless
you tell mo something to the contrary. I
think a lot of this girl, nut I do not want
to Impose on her good nature.
"0. D. P."
I believe I'd try tho lettlng-alone method
for at least a month; see if she tries In
any way to look you up. I really can't
tell Just what her state of heart may be
toward you; she's something of a conun
1 drum; but I have a sneaking feeling that
iu aro half way right In your opinion.
You're wrong about tlie arm etiquette;
you should always take hers except in
a grand march.

lime is an old Creole reclpo for fried
chicken and crenm snueo: Clean and cut
tho chicken at tlie Joints, dredgo well with
salt, pepper and a llttlo flour. Put three
tablespoonfuls of lard into a frying pan
and when hot. add the chicken, allowing It
to fry slowly for three-quarters of an hour
until done. When dono, arrange the pieces
on a hot dish. Tako nil tho fat that re
mains In tho frying pan, but ono table
spoonful and put It away. Add a table
spoonful of sifted flour to tho greaso in
the pan, Mlxthoroughly, so there nro no
lumps, and then pour In a half pint of rich
cream or milk. Season well with salt,
pepper, let It como to a boll and pour over
the chicken. Servo hot.
Sugar Lumps
One wlso woman who has too frequent
ly been nunoyed by discovering her granu
lated sugar a mass of lumps when It Is
most needed tells about her remedy. Sho
has a lurgo envelope, such as thoso which
photographs nro sent In, placed under
neath or besldo her sugar box. When sho
wants to uso tho sugar or to (HI tho bowl,
she dips tho envelope iu tho sugar and
rolls Its contents out with a rolling pin.
Thero aren't any moro lumps.
Salmon Omelette
A Lenten breakfast needn't be a falluro
by any means. There nro so many de
lightful and entirely palatable ways to
dlsguiso tho ordinary omelette that tlie
absence of meat Is overlooked.
Tako the salmon omelette, for Instance.
Use a half can ot salmon, a half cupful
of milk. 4 eggs, and salt and pepper to
taste. Pick the. salmon Into tiny flakes
with a fork and be sure to seo that no
skin or bones nre left. Proceed as in
making an ordinary omelette, beating tho
eggs, and adding tho seasoning, milk nnd
fish. A border ot mashed potatoes looks
well ; peas may also be used.
If You Like Garlic
A touch ot garlic can make a plain
French salad different. Tho salts of
garlic will do something toward accom
plishing this, but a garllo clove, dropped
into the vinegar cruet, after being peeled,
will give the suggestion without a too
realistic after effect.

SOME COMMON SENSE ADVICET
TO TUBERCULOSIS VICTIMS
By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.
DOCTORS are often nsked If patients
with pulmonary tuberculosis (con
sumption) over really get well.
Nineteen In every 20 cases diagnosed
1 In tho pro-tuberculous stage recover.
Seventeen In every 20 cases diagnoscci m
the Incipient (ilrst) stago recover. Twelve
In every 20 rases diagnosed In tho second
stngo (consolidation, tubercle, Infiltration
of lung) get well tinder modern treat
ment. What Is tho pre-tubereulous state?
It Is tho stage of disease In which
the patient abuses himself or herself,
usually with somo patent medicine, some
"tonlo." In a tabulation ot the histories
of over 3.100 tuberculosis cases Dr. H.
fl. KhrenrelCh found that tho majority of
tho patients did not consult a doctor until
they had been In poor health from threo
months to a year! Meanwhile, the most
of them were trying experiments with
something suggested by a prepossessing
druggist or a dishonest ndvortlsemetit.
The pro-tuberculous stalo Is character
ized by these symptoms:
First. Mntalee. fatigue. "run-down
condition." tired feeling, peevishness,
cnprlclous appetite, usually dlstosto for
fats.
Second. Anemia.
Third. "Catarrh," tendency tn "enlch
cold," but no cough, Just a desire to clear
tho throat mornings.
Fourth. Loss of weight or failure to
Increase normally In weight. The Individ
ual Is rather lanky and lenn and several
pounds below normal weight for height
nnd ngo.
Fifth. Perfeot complexion. fJlrls do

cover woll, setting Inside a hot ovon (this
should be dono beforehand if tho chafing
dish Is used), nnd after 20 minutes add
tho boiling broth or water and tho bunch

Cook for two hours, turning them fre
quently and basting often. Put tho
chicken In n hot dish, boiling tho gravy

greaso ond paRS through a sieve. Pour
