HOUSEKEEPING HERE.
What One Writer Hus to Say About It In
the Vnited States.
When I visited England many years
ago, says a correspondent of Harper s.
1 was struck by the perfect appoint
ments and the smoothness of the do
mestic machinery, not only among the
wealthy, but among what is called the
upper middle class. It was far be
yond what we could hope to reach, for
although our Australian help has fac
ulty, and can do many things fairly
well, and will undertake new things
bravely, she is not the perfect Instru
ment demanded by modern division of
labor. American housekeepers seem
to strive after the impossible. They
know what is desirable, and, coute
que coute, they aim at it. They try to
run a house which in England would
have five or six servants with the aid
of three, and have breadmaklng and
washing probably thrown in. They
succeed marvelously well, thanks to
their own cleverness and assiduity, but
at an immense expenditure of nerve
force, and often at the sacrifice of
health. I think American domestic serv
ants do more work than they do in Aus
tralia, and more than they do In Eng
land. When I asked, "Why Is breadmak
lng at h6me so general In America, for
surely that is a business that ought to
be done by experts?" I was told that
everyone preferred home-made bread.
I discovered the probable cause for my
self. Wheat and flour are as cheap in
America as anywhere In the world. Ev
ery exporting country has its home
prices fixed In the London market, de
ducting the cost of transport. The price
of flour, therefore, is the same in Amer
ica as it Is in Australia. But the price
of bread Is a very different thing. In
Australia I paid 5 cents or 2d. for a
loaf weighing two pounds. In several
American cities I And the baker sells a
single pound for 5 cents. The prudent
classes buy flour and make bread at
home, but the poorest people are those
who pay a cent per loaf on the price of
this prime necessary of life. Why co
operative bakeries are not established
in every city In the Union is a question
that will be asked me in England, where
co-operation is a great and beneficent
agency.
I must confess that a good American
house, with all its labor-saving appli
ances, is a great help towards domestic
comforts. I should like to import one
bodily Into Australia, though we could
dispense with the elaborate heating ap
paratus. When the heating is not over
done (the great temptation to Ameri
cans), the manner in which the wide
sliding doors can be left open between
the publlu rooms on one floor gives one
an Idea of space impossible to be con
veyed when each room is closely shut
to keep in the heat from the open fire
places. I have never missed the open
fireplace. Winter in Australia is the
short half of the year, and there Is
no Intense cold, so that we do not
cower beside the fire. The equable
warmth of the whole house la agree
able, though the contrast between in
doors and out-of-doors Is pretty sharp.
The over-heating and bad ventilation
of railway carriages are the greatest
inconveniences I have suffered from.

The transfer of his wife bv Kike Pull-

one of the most remarkable commercial
transactions that the east haa lately
known. The fact that the wife was an

no means the least willing party there
to, adds interest if not a moral flavor
to the affair.

ise to love, cherish and obey Cullford

his conviction, she thought, waa a suf
ficient separation. Early In the spring
they moved to Butler and Cullford
worked by the day among the farmers
to support hia young wife. Early in
August Cullford cume home unexpect
edly and found Dratt and his wife un
der circumstances which made him bus-
plclous. Cullford called Dratt into an
adjoining room, but they were fol
lowed by the womun. Then the hus
band asked his rival:
"Do you want this woman more than
I do?"
"Yes," replied Dratt.
"Well, what will you give for her?"
Dratt paused for a moment, then he
said firmly, but slowly, "Twenty-five
cents."
"She's yours," said Cullford. Fork

The quarter changed hands. The wo
man spoke for the first time. "Well,
I don't care," she said, between sobs.
"If you did buy me you have got to sup
port me."
''I will," said Dratt, and that closed
the transaction.
The transfer of property took place
that afternoon, Dratt calling for his
purchase with his horse and buggy.

Bow Suffrage is Restricted in Canada.
From the Albany Times-Union.
The Canadian restrictions on suffrage
are peculiar. In order to be entitled to
vote, not only must one be a male British
subject 21 years of age, and have lived In
the Dominion at least a year, but he must
also have been the owner of real estate or
the occupier of rented house or business
property for the same time. If he owns
real estate In a city it must be worth lav:
If In a town $200, and if elsewhere J Id". If
he neither owns real estate nor occupies
real estate as a tenant, he can vote if he
earns (300 a year, or if he be the son of a
farmer or real estate owner and live at
his father's home. An Income voter Is
not required, as all other voters are, to
live a year in the district where he wants
to vote, but can register at any time.

buy now aud pay later.
Can I Buy Cheaper for Cash
Yes, if you wish to buy for cash, or ou short time pay
ments, and will so inform the salesman, lie will give
you prices close to cost. A cash house cannot sell as
low, as their sales are not sufficient to make them as ex
tensive buyers. Our sales are four times as large as
they would be if we sold for cash only. Reflect and go
to the ECONOMY FIRNITIRE CO.'S STORE.
