McGEEHE, 2-8-3t. Executor. Domestic Science and Living Costs. In spite of all this new interest in domestic science, a yood many women still feel that household tasks are uninteresting to bright and clever persons. The domes tic science schools reply that this is beciuse they have not yet be come skilful at the m. The pleas- ure in any act, they say, is prin cipally the exercise of conscious skill There is nothins essentially in teresting for instance in taking a bat and knocking a ball over a net But when a girl can take a tennis racket and place a ball within a six inch line in a way to confuse and defeat an opponent, the spectators applaud, and she feels the thrill of conscious skill. The applause of ibe household at a well made pie may be just as thrilling. The domestic science leaders insist that to the women who regards housework as an art it is a great pleasure to man- pulate materials and turn out a finished product Certainly the analogy of the work ot men seems to prove it. There is nothing essentially in teresting in leather, wool or al luvial soil: Yet the manufactur er, or the farmer, who can ma nipulate these coarse materials so as to produce good shoes, good clothing, and good corn, enjoys Ins work finds pleasure in It So the domestic science leaders iQftiat that a woman can find life long satisfaction in turning out a fhUbed product. A great many women are dis heartened by the unwillingness of their husbands to give them good facilities. The best results can not be had with antiquated tools. Many a man frets because his wife lets the household costs mount up, but be never gives her any facilities for keeping these costs down. Ho expects hor to oe an old fashioned slave per forming tasks after the primitive method of her ancestors. Mod em domestic science makes the Urge promises, but to fulfil them it demands such tools as vacuum cleaners, and electric and gas fa cilities wbtre such are to be had. 0, Yon Girls!

P WHITE, Notary Public, OVERTAXING INDUSTRY. Taxes are not alone the burden of the rich. They luevltubly descend along the scale and ure generally shared in some proportion by all. When exces give burdens of taxation empbnslze the competitive disadvantages of any com munity fcr any branch or class of busi ness that community will invariably suffer a decrease In the Industrial de velopment and prosperity of all within Its boundaries. I In many sections of the country re ports show that industry is often sub jected to continuous and unreasonable burdens of taxes In ono form or an- other. This condition is due in part at least to a mistaken public attitude to ward Industrial operations or a preju- , diced, Ignorant or indifferent opinion on the part of public officers and politi cians. The history of Industrial com munities where such burdens are im posed, however, la the best evldenre of whether such a policy pays anybody. Two manufacturers In similar lines of business, one operating a plant in , Massachusetts and "the other located In Connecticut, were reeeutly comparing notes. They discovered that for every 100 In taxes which the Connecticut plant pays per annum the Massachu setts plant was paying $1,000, or ten times as much. The answer to this sit uation Is that Massachusetts bas been falling behind in the perceatage of growth as an Industrial state compared wltb some of her neighboring commu nities where Industry is not so often aimed at by burdeusonie, unnecessary and unreasonable laws. The following open letter by J. W. Powell, president of the Fore River (Mass.) Shipbuilding Corporation, ad dressed to the employees of that com pany In a recent Issue of their "family magazine, The Fore River Log, pre sents In a fair way the average busi ness man's view ou excessive taxation of Industrial plants: "What is good for Fore River Is good for Qulucy, and what is good for Quirt cy Is good for Fore River. "The officers and employees of this company and their families make up more than a quarter of the population of the city. Their Interests are the same as the interest of QuLdc and of "'UNITED WE STAND the Fore River Hhlpbulldlug Corpora tion. "This company's business Is building ships, which brings us Into competi tion wltb companies building ships In other States. Anything that Fore River must do in this community that other shipbuilding companies do not have to do In their cities will, in the long run. hurt us. ( "Today there are more ships to be built than there are yards to build hem. When the war Is over there will be more shipyards than .there are ships to build. Then the yard that builds the cheapest will take the con tracts, and the yard wliose costs aro highest will discharge Its men. "The other big shipyards do not pay big taxes. Some of them pay no taxes at all. If you own a bouse and rent It you add your taxes Into the rent If you rent o house you pay the taxes when you pay your rent, so the com pany must add Its taxes when it sells a ship. "Such an assessment and such taxes as have been levied against this company this year In Qulucy. which la as mucl as the combined cost of Its new hos pltal and club, hurt It and will hur: you. It Is not fair to Increase this com pnny's assessment 00 per, cent and t Increase Us taxes nearly 50 per cenl this year as against n year ago. "You know that a great part of the company's money spent in Improve ments has been spent to make Forr River a better pluco to work. Then are still many departments needlni new buildings, new washrooms, new locker rooms, and many other Improve ments to make this yard tho kind of c yard you and we both want it to be. "We expect to pay a fair tax, but will not pay an exorbitant one. Thlt matter ia of Interest to you. Think it over. "(Signed) J. W. Powell, "President." A Texas legislator recently offered for enactment a bill designed to pre vent head-on collisions between rail road trains In his State. Tho main part of the text said: "When two trains, coming from opposite direc tions, approach a crossing, both shall stop, and neither shall cross until the other bus passed." ODDS AND ENDS. Tho lives of practically all men famous in the business world as shown lu the history of Industry during the past twenty-five years will prove to you the practical value of the "stick to It" prln clple of lire. Armour stuck to beef. Ilarrlinati and mil to railroads, Edison to electricity, Carnegie and Schwab to steel. Rockefeller to oil, Morgan to finance, and so on wltbmit end. All these captains of industry and thou sands of others (hat might be men tloned bud the faculty of "sticking" to a Job until they made good. 'The time bas come," said James W VVadsworth. Jr..

I see lu the future except this heed is given 'a development which will prevent the Individual from carry ing on his business, honest though be may be,- with his own initiative and enterprise." Do not be a clock watcher In the rauks of industry. Those who wait for hours to strike or whistles to blow aud "soldier" at the bench, machine or In the olDco seldom or never get very far ahead In the ranks. They never get Vny more pay because tbey are not worth more and often are worth less than tbey get Remember the old adage that a man who never docs any more ot as much as be gets paid for never gets very much pay.

Various conditions affect the weathering of coal, tending to pre serve or destroy the pile. Report ing an investigation to the Canadian department of mines, Dr. J. B. Por ter shows that the kind of coal is a prime factor in the problem, that the presence in it of such unstable car bonaceous compounds as resins ami humus promotes oxidation, that py- rite and marcasite are effective as disintegrating agents and that fine coal or dust presents a vastly great er surface for oxidizing action than lumps. A low pile ensures less pres sure. Compression ana shutting out of air increase the risk of destruc tion, while excess of air, though tending to facilitate oxidization, ac tually lessens the effect by convey ing away the beat. Dry coal is so poor a conductor of heat that the presence of a heated spot in the pile may be unsuspected until rain pene trates to the interior, finding its way back as steam. The temperature of the" coal at time of storage is im portant and the heat of a summer day makes it dangerous to store coal exposed to the noonday sun. The shining of the sun on the pile after storage has less effect, as the heat ab sorbed is given off at night VALUABLE GIFT TO MUSEUM Collection of Tomb Jades That Are Known to Be Mors Than Twenty Centuries Old. A gift of distinction made to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and put on exhibition this month is a collection of 105 tomb jades present ed by Samuel T. Peiers. This fills out a similar presentation made by Mr. Peters to the museum about two years ago. The later pieces are much finer and the whole makes a collection that probably cannot be excelled. Not all of the collection has been put on exhibition, but two cases can be seen in the east end of the gallery previously used for spe cial exhibitions and now devoted to far eastern art These tomb jades date back to about 200 years B. C. They are not formed of the clear jade used by the Chinese at a later date, but of the matrix and are in unusual shades of browns. There are a large number of amulets which were placed at the mouth, nostrils and eyes of the dead to prevent the en trance of evil spirits. There is the Pi, a large round flat piece of jade with a hole in the center, an emblem of heaven, a gift of honor : there are "wands of dignity" and carved pieces of jade, buckles possibly. A few of the pieces which had not been buried date as far back aa 1,000 years B. C. New York Tribune. 'WOULD ABOLISH HOME WORK Prominent Educator Likely to Have Solid Support for Drastic Change He Haa Advocated. Many parents will feel that there is sound common 6ense in the sugges tions made by Professor Hall-Quest of the University of Virginia in his addresses before Rochester teachers in regard to arranging school sched ules so that home work would be abolished and the amount of writing done by school children greatly re duced. Children in the upper grades in grammar schools have a great deal of writing to do and a considerable amount of home work besides. As the majority of children graduate from the grammar schools nowadays at twelve to fourteen years of age, study in the upper grades imposes a tremendous strain of the eyes and general health a period of life when it is likely to have permanent injuri ous effects. Professor Hall-Quest put his finger on the weak spot in the present school system when he said that children would leurn vastly more if they were taught more how to study and use their minds instead of spending so much time writing. Much of the writing done is a waste of time because it makes no impres sion whatever on the mind of the child. But the incompetent Or lazy teacher finds it an invaluable aid be cause discipline is more easily pre served when children have their hands occupied. Rochester Demo crat OFFERED HIS COMPANY.
