And the day looks in at the open door.

Goes back and forth DER the kitchen floor
With plate and platter and fork and spoon
AS every day she is wont to do.
And she lays them with a quiet grace.

All in a riotous tangie run.
The cat lies curled asleep on chair.
The old dog blinks at the MONDAY sun.
But the dear. old wife is sad to-day,
And the morning hours have seemed so
long.
For her thoughts are of the long ago,
When the old house rang with mirth and
song
When the red-cheeked boys and merry girls
Came trooping in through the open door;
And some will come back no moreno

There are empty chairs against the wall.
And the wide. old rooms are strangely

with three great beams running across
it, the whole fastened together with
pegs. Upon the plank are laid two
rollers, and on these rests half log
of wood just fitting between the sides
of the frame. This weight is smooth
on it's under surface, rough hewn above,
and is provided at each end with three
pegs which serve as handles.
The ironer, when ready to begin,
takes sheet, for instance, winds it
tightly around one of the rollers, and
outside. Then, lifting one end of the
log and placing the roller under it, she
works the weight to and fro, until
the wrinkles are all presumably
smoothed away. Then the sheet is re-
moved, folded and put away, and the
next neutrality-suspicious. another sheet
or three or four towels, or half a dozen
kerchiefs-substituted The sec
ond roller acts merely to balance the
log, although two ironers can work the
machine, one at each end. AS for
''starched things''-the "blanchisserie
de fine" with which Trilby was con-
cerned-they are another story-not
yet published in rural Slavonia.
The woman who irons is as pictur-
esque as her tools, when she wears the
Slovenian peasant costume. Her shoes
are fat and heelless; she has no stock
ings, but winds linen about her lower
legs and binds it in place with thongs,
leaving space of two inches or so bare
below the edge of her killed skirt of
coarse, undyed linen. Her yellow,
sheepskin jacket is ornamented with
patches of red and purple leather, quilt
ed on with bright yarns, and her head
is covered with a gaudy kerchief. AL
most us often, however, she is stripped
of her finery, except on Sundays, and
wears at her work bedraggled clothing
of western Europe's unattractive work
a-day pattern.

WOMAN AND HOME.
CARE OF FOOTWEAR.

che Proper Things TO BE Done and
How to DO Them. ~
Take care of your shoes-a little care
costs nothing, is SO easy, makes them
| last longer and looks better 1t pays
to have two pairs of shoes, and
wear each every other day-this way
they never become perspiration soaked
and they last much longer and the
| wearer is healthier. If the feet per-
spire, sprinkle a little powdered burnt
alum in the stocking. Precipitation
rots leather. Don't allow any acids or
calf liquids to touch your shoes-acid
burns and salt rots the leather. When
the shoes are wet, dry 'em slowly
don't put 'em on the stove, in the oven.
on the register or radiator; don't put
'em near the heat-let them dry by
themselves; too much heat seams the
leather and cracks the life out of it,
the shoes will crack and crumble.
Sweet oil rubbed on shoes when dry
will soften the leather. If black shoes
have reddish or musty color, apply
sweet oil and the color will soon come
back. When using dressing or black
ing use the least you can-you will have
more luster-the shoes wear longer.
Always keep the heels straight-this
relieves the strain and makes the shoe
fit the rubbers better and keeps the rub
Der from wearing out at the heel. Don't
let the sole become far gone before re-
pairing. Don't have stiff soles put on
because they are cheaper. The uppers
ure not as good as new, and will not
stand the strain. When taking off the
shoes use the hand and not the foot.
Unlace shoes all the way down-there'il
be no taking off and putting on strain.
Button shoes should be buttoned up
whether on the foot or off-that keeps
the shape. When you put your shoes
away for next seasons wear stuff them
full of cotton batting, pressing it in as
hard as you can. That will keep them
from curling up. Don't put rubbers
away with leather goods, as the leath-
er oil will blister the rubber. Patent
leather shoes will be kept in u warm
place. Don't put them on when they
are cold. In cold weather look out for
them, and don't go out doors until
they have been on Is minutes. Braids on
the bottom of the skirt wear out shoes
more than velveteen. Always have
shoes long enough--short ones hurt the
feet-throw the shoe out of shape
force the upper from the sole. When
buttoning a shoe, don't jerk the hook
over too quickly-it may cut the but
ton-hole.-Boot and Shoe Recorder.

Where to Keen the Flour.

Flour is one of the cooking materials
that often receive no thought as to
where they shall be kept. Many houses
are not provided with store closet, and
barrel of -four is put in the corner of
the kitchen behind an outside door ito
have it out of the way and not fill up the
pantry" Dampness affects flour, max
ing it close and heavy; besides flour will
absorb the odor of many things as
quickly as butter, so if one wishes to be
sure of good and light bread and cakes
the first thing to do is to FILL up the
pantry" Make feet of four small pieces
of wood for the barrel to stand upon,
thus allowing the air to circulate around
all parts of the barrel.
