COLLINS DRUG STORE,

. PENNA,
A woman living near two large pri
vate schools, makes old-fashioned
cakes and good sandwiches, and has
boiled eggs, sweet milk and fresh
fruit on hand at modest prices. Her
one hour of storekeeping, five days a
week, furnishes her a substantial
amount at the end of the season.
There are women shoppers, chaper-
ones, professional marketers, jewelers,
caterers, visiting governesses, lace
wenders, women who get up parties
of all kinds (for grown people as well
a+ children), visiting housekeepers,
visiting ‘milliners; in fact, there Is
hardly a field that has been left un-
tried. The professional trunk packer
is always busy, and girls speaking va
rious languages are in demand as com-
panions for shopping and sight seeing
by women from other countries.
Most women who are earning pin
money cannot devote all their time to
it, so they have to choose something
“bat pays when fitted into their spare’
time. In these days of opportunity, no
woman’ need hesitate. She first must
decide on the right thing to do; then,
it she works at it diligently there is
little doubt as to the rezult.

Larning Pin
Money
Many young women who have a lit-
tle time free from their regular duties,
are desirous of making pin money. The
best way to go about this is to fina
some plan for doing the common thing
in an uncommon fashion. It may be in-
teresting to hear what others have ac-
complished in this line,
One girl has gathered a clientele of
patrons for whom she classifies books
and cares for libraries; this gives her
occupation daily, from 10 until 3, bring-
ing her around fo the same house once
a month. She nets about $5 a day.
Another girl has regular customers
f5r whom she washes prica-brae. Still
another is a social secretary to three
married sisters, visiting each two
mornings a week attending to their
social correspondence, writing invita-
tions and doing all the regulation du-
ties of a secretary.
One woman does all the mending ot
table linen for a small hotel which em-
no regular housekeeper. Another
woman reads aloud at $1 an hour, and
has more than she can do; she is sat-
isfied with $3 or $4 a day and will not
accept any more work than that. Thc
various exchanges for woman’s work
open the field for the needlewoman
and the cake baker; they do very well,
ii they are experts in their line and
Live plenty of ideas.
There is a woman not far from the
city, who has a large truit supply from
her trees and bushes, and a big herb
garden. She works hard in summer but
bas a fine income all winter from her
jellies, jams and preserves, dried herbs
and fancy salad vinegzars.In the winter
she takes orders for cakes and salads
for private functions, also making
special dainties. During the first five
years, she earned enough extra money
to build a fair sized modern hothouse,
a part of which she devotes to raising
ferns and carnations for which there is
a ready sale at good prices; the rest of
the room she devotes to early lettuce
and tomato plants. Recently she has
added mushrooms, raising them under
sloys
tne benches; a local greengrocer takes
her ent¥re ‘oninut
The Cheerful Kitchen
When the spring cleaning and paint-
fang are in process, let us not forget to
give the kitchen a generous share of
| attention. In these days of discussion
about workroom improvement, it may
which in town houses are often in the
basement, and which are not always
planned with proper consideratien for
Hght and air.
The old idea of painting the walls
of the kitchen with a dark color, so
essary is no longer considered crvedit-
able household economy. The very
moderr kitchen is a light, pleasant
room, encouraging cleanliness and
cheer.
Why not make the old kitchen cop-
form to this idea? It may be done with
comparatively little expense and will
insure an increase of good will and ef-
ficiency in the home.
The tiled kitchen is both attractive
end practical but it is also expensive.
The same effect may be gained by cov-
ering walls and floors. with linoleuri.
Linoleum of various designs and colors
may be had and, when set in cement,
it makes a floor almost as evxduring as
stone. All the woodwork in the
kitchen should be painted with white
enamel, so that it may easily be wip-
ed aver.
A very inexpensive treatment for the
some pretty, light color, fastened to
he wall at the top with a narrow mold-
ing of wood, painted with white enam-
el like the wall above. The effect is ns
attractive as possible and, if the oil-
cloth is of good quality it will wear
very well and need not be renewed for
several years. Old kitchen chairs and
tables may also be painted white and
‘te tables covered with oilcloth to
match the walls of the room.
Potato Puffs
Take about four potatoes or enough
te make three tablecpoonfuls when
mashed; salt them, then add two egas
beaten separately, one teaspoon ‘ot dry
mustard, one teaspoon of baking pow-
der, one half cup of sweet milk, flour
te thicken stiffly. Drop from a tea
=poon in hot cottclene and cook to a
golden brown.

She—Oh! I shouid not expect a par-

HIS OPINION.
«And what,” asked the reporter, “do
you consider the success in life?”
‘“q oe say,” replied the wealthy
philosophér from the Klondike, “that
it consists in being at the right place
at the right time.”
