Little Things That livery Woman
Wants to Know.


Keep flowers fresh by putting pinch
of soda in the water.
Boil the clothesline and it will not
''kink," as new rope is apt to do.
Soda is the best thing for cleaning
tinware; apply with damp cloth and
rub we'll, then wipe dry.
Prick potates before baking so that
the air can escape; this will prevent
their bursting in the oven.
For sore throat beat the white of an
egg stiff with all the sugar it will hold
and the juice of one lemon.
Grease spots that have burnt and be-
come hard OH the stove may be removed
by few drops of kerosene Oil OH the
cloth before rubbing them.
To clean stove zinc or Zinc-lined
bathtub, mix ammonia and whiting to a
smooth paste, apply it to the zinc and
let dry. Then rub it off until no dust
remains.
When it is necessary to keep meat
without ice. wrap it in cloth that has
been wrung out of vinegar and hang it
i'll a cool place where 10 sun will
reach it.
To mend large holes in socks or mer-
inc underwear, tack a piece of strong
net over and darn through it. The darn
will be stronger and heater than with

1t may be only an impression caused
by the way women dress, but certain it
Is that the women of today seem a great
deal taller than the women we knew
twenty years ago. The girl who clung
to a soldier sweetheart as she babe him
good-by in war times was almost in
yariably tiny mite of creature
whose head reached just to the blue
shoulders of the warrior. She was a
fragile creature, too, and dined heartily
on the wing of chicken. She esteemed
it vulgar to have an appetite. and I'M
ladylike not to faint at critical mo-
ments. And she was short-fully
two inches shorter than the
average woman OF today. 1t
isn't entirely a pleasant prospect to con-
template. but the undeniable fact is
that the women are growing taller and
the men shorter. 1t is doubtless un-
ceasing application to business that
makes the modern man short, and 1t is
the freedom from worry and the fashion
for athletics that makes the women
taller.
The girls of the early seventies did
not eat. They pulled in their belts till
dear only knows what became of their
livers, and pretended to live on air. 1t
was vulgar to be strong, unladylike to
indulge in anything more athletic than
that producer of weak chests and stopped
shoulders, croQuet. Archery began the
change. and, by the way, archery bids
fair to become fad again. Tennis fos-
tered it. and tramping, rowing, swim
ming and fencing have completed it.
FL ic q f.,l1 l.
dered, hearty, healthy creature, who
eats as much as she pleases and likes
her steak underdone.
st. Paul women are no exception to
the rule, and most of our beauties are
tall. Miss Gordon, who sings so ex-
Quisitely, is above the average. Lovely
Miss Finch. who looked the embodiment
of youth when she represented the new
year at the Nushka New Years ball. is
slight and willowy. Miss Spalding and
Miss Armstrong, sweet Miss Bend, Miss
Kalman, who is creating such a turOre
abroad; Mrs. Scott. Mrs. Hyndman.
Miss Lamborn, Miss Smyth and ever so
many others of the handsome women
one sees in society are great deal
had they been girls of twenty
years ago. The standard of height
is fully two inches taller than
it used to be, and the height of our
women is only another indication of the
advance Of the sex. A little woman may
be inundated and bnllied by great.
burly man. but a glorious. level-eyed,
broad-shouldered creature is not going
to be dictated to by a man the top of
whose head she can see.
OF course, there are notable eXcep-
tons TO the rule that our beauties are
tall, Miss Day, who came out last sea-
son, and was tremendous success, is a
petite blonde. Piquant Miss WanZer's
bright eyes smile out at YOU on a level
with your shoulder. but that these and
other short young women are the eX-
ception rather than the rule goes to
prove that the tall WOMAN is the woman
OF the day.
