1t may be true that "most girls of the
period know much more about the proper
management of a house when they marry
than their mothers did," but this is not
the experience of the majority of men who
marry American girls. No one is brighter
or quicker to learn the mysteries of house
hold work than the American girl, but in
the great majority of cases she gains this
knowledge after her marriage. Wherever
the English system of enforcing training
in cooking and household work is adopted
there the girls are found to be adopts, but
unfortunately, especially in the west, the
custom is to leave all household work to
servants. Thus the girl grows up with no
practical knowledge of this work, which
seems so easy. but which in reality requires
patient study and much practice TO do
well. So when she comes TO manage a
household she is at the mercy of servants,
who are quick 20 take advantage of her ig-
norance. She generally energies the victor
after several years of costly experience, but
she would have been spared all this worry,
vexation and hard work had her mother
insisted, as English mothers do, upon equal
proficiency in the kitchen and the music
room.-San Francisco Chronicle.

as there's note left. Sing no for her For
the freckle faced girl has had her room fur

The walls are old ivory color, the frieze at
the top of the warm tones of burnt lumber,

curtains at the doorway are drab and blue,

scorched brown colored toilet set and rib

1t is quite easy to judge of persons
character by the way she uses the multi
farious lounge pillows in vogue at present.
II a person comes in, sits carefully down,
with worried look behind her at the pill
lows, cautiously sinks back in some space
between them, and avoids them with her
elbows, beware of such a person. She will
have prune sauce and toast for lunch and
won't let your dog come into the ves-
tibule; her husband will walk six
blocks to avoid two horse car fares
and go with his wife dry goods shop
ping. But the people who sink back
with sigh of satisfaction into the pillows,
put there for that purpose, who will get
one behind the spine, another behind their
head and one under each elbow, and beam
in comfort at you from their midst, are all
around good people and not to be scratched
of the ticket.-Miss Meander in Boston
