Women Taking the Place of Men.

The innovation Of more women servants
and fewer men servants is a spreading one
among the English gentry. This is espe-
cially noticeable in the large country estab-
lishments where heretofore retinues OF
powdered and padded calved lackeys have
been kept. In some instances the entire
household of servants has been changed TO
women, who are reported to be more salts
factory and capable in many ways than
their brethren in livery. An English lady
of title who employees two maids as door
openers, dresses them in uniform Of light
gray stuff, bright red aprons, French caps
of the same color and courier bags at their
sides. An alternate livery worn by them
was black dresses, white aprons and gay
ribbons.-Her Point OF View in New York

A Closet for Ironing Utensils.

Whenever it is possible it is well to keep
q separate closet for articles pertaining 10
ironing. Keep the irons, starch, blueing
holders, boards, sheet. blanket and other
articles pertaining to ironing in this closet,
which should be warm and dry and shut
off from the dust If the ironing boards
are kept in closet in general use it is best
to put them in bags Of bed ticking or SONS
other heavy cotton, and hang them up
where they will be free from dust and dirt
If they are kept in closet reserved for the
ironing material they need not be covered
Tubs and ironing boards should be kept in
a cold place, and there is no objection to a
little dampness.-New York Tribune.

A woman residing near Irasburg, Vt, Ia
said to have allowed no human being to
look upon her during the day for nearly
forty years. She lives in a small, sub
stantial, one room cabin, about six miles

darkest nights, when, thickly yelled, she
will walk into town and transact such
business as she may have. She lives on
money left her by her father who, it is
said, was a well to do farmer.-Philadel-

Heinz for Beauty.

"a girl who sits ungracefully Is rarity,
said an artist. 1.-The sex's poses in a chair
are instinctiyely and unconsciously slightly.
Then why will not girls practice good
carriage? They spend hours of prayer and
effort over their bangs and their makeup,
yet everybody knows a fine figure is the
most important requisite of all Any face
can be rendered attractive by expression.
Good carriage induces good figure. 1t at
least throws such lines as you have into
an adjustment of harmony. 1t will make
your dresses fit better, last longer and look
finer while they last.
"a head well carried comes soon TO be
well poised Shoulders well squared back
fill up your bodice and improve your sill
houette as well as your profile. Hips well
balanced make your gowns drape grace
fully in spite of your dressmaker. Feet
that come down to the ground prettily
come near TO being pretty feet. If women
would spend their time bathing, rubbing
and exercising they would have something
to show for it. Instead, they set around in
masks or make themselves hideous over
night. They use washes, prescriptions and
oils and they don't half wash. Oh, yes,
that is true. Many women, especially those
addicted to greases, do not half wash. Alb
solute cleanliness-sweet, wholesome. dain-
ty cleaniiness--is the best and only safe
cosmetic in the world. "-Chicago News.
How to Make So Called Divided Skirt.
Make your skirt OF light crisp silk, some
pretty color-scarlet, if you like, or bright
blue. Let it come half way between knee
and ankle. Do you know how to make the
skirt2 Just pair of scant boomers, either
ballooning or holding by elastic about the
leg. On each leg sew a ruffls half way
above the knee, a full ruffle, or better still
a knife plating that falls to where the
boomers end. If you want to be very par
ticular, you can put another ruff1e under
this just about the knee of each leg, and
falling to the edge of the boomers. Then
sew skirt this same length and of the
same material, to the band of the bloom
ers. No matter what happens, no flash of
white can suggest exposure.
The white articles of wear are safe under
the boomers. No matter how high reach
the step up is, the ruffles on the lifted leg
fall in mass about the leg and down to
the other leg, looking as if ones skirt clung
kindly. The whole thing goes on at once
and does not soil any sooner than would
the usual dark petticoat, and it is prettier
than the petticoat. You can lift your dress
with impunity, and not be afraid of lifting
the skirt at the same time.-Cincinnati En-

A Poisonous Fish.

The anglers and lovers of fish about
Park Rapids, Mimi, are much dis
gusted and seriously alarmed over the
appearance of numbers of peculiar
fish in the lakes and ponds of that vi
cinity. and which fish is said to be high
" poisonous. The best naturalists, as
we'll as the oldest and most experienced
fishermen of the neighborhood, have
declared that they are at a loss to
name the strange fish, which are so
yoracious that they swallow all bait as
soon as placed in the water and pre-
vent others from biting, while wholly
UNBEATABLE themselves. 1t is also be-
lieved that they are exterminating the
other varieties, as immense quantities
of the latter are found dead every day
along the shores of the lakes and
ponds.
The unknown member of the finny
tribe is not unlike a small trout, very
plump and very tender, with few bones,
and those large. 1t is, however, nearly
black in color, except about the under
parts, where it is of metallic gray mixed
with gold, and a few red blotches near
the fins and about the head. 1t pre-
sents handsome appearance in the
water. about the surface of which it
delights to linger, making it very easy
game. Eaten it has pleasant flavor,
but will produce violent pains in the
stomach, which if not allayed precede
death only few hours How these fish
came into the lakes no one knows, but
they first appeared about two weeks ago
after heavy fall of rain, when many
firmly believed they accompanied it
