The Missionary's Broncos.

u knew a missionary party In
the west who had pair Of broncos,
one of which could only be started
in one way; the other, Of course,
was in entire sympathy with and
regulated his movements by his
companion" writes Rev. Cyrus
Townsend Brady in the May
Ladies Home Journal. "Two dis
interested people who were not
going with the party would pass
the blight of a stout rope around
the hind fetlocks of the recalci-
trapt animal. and each take an end
and saw away until you could al
most smell the burning hair, when,
without one word of warning, the
beasts would bolt. and from that
time would go all day eheerfully
at the liveliest kind of trot, pro-
vided they were not halted for any,
thing. II they were stopped the
same process would have to be gone
over with again. Moral suasion
was absolutely and entirely lost on
those broneos, yet you could not
help liking them; they were so
mean they were actually charming
Detroit paid 800 year for street
lights and the owners swore there
was nothing in itat that. The city
put its own plant in and it cost$64.
19 the first year; $51.S5 the second
year and $46.46 last year. 1t would
never have decreased under private
ownership and the lights have been
better. But the funniest thing about
the whole business is that none Of
the aldermen nave been bribed or
b-ibes offered them to pay for poor
lights at a good light rate, nor for
Ii 5hts that were not burning. Isn't
it queer?
Judge White of Pitisburg, Pa,
has just refused to permit the incor-
poration of the borough Gown Of
Wall, because he says il would in
crease the tax of the Pennsylvania
railroad without doing that compa-
ny any good. If that were a good
excuse, then all tax levied TO pay
public officials, judge While incln-
ded, should be done away with be,
cause they do not benefit thepeople
who pay them. But then the work
ing people elect such men as White
to rule over them and White is a
holder Of railroad passes And there
you are. With public ownership Of
railroads White would have no pass
the roads. would not stand in the
way of the peopls goTerning ti'ela
selves, and the conditions would be
better for the people, even il soase
millionaires might not get so much
richer.

We all know the usual method of
servants training They secure a po-
sition first al general homework; then,
after stumbling through duties never
before heard of aud handling foods
and utensils the value of which is ut
terly IN, -nown to them, desert their
teacher mistress and take a place at
higher wages Receiving further in
structions from the new mistress, they
leave her also for higher wages and
still further instructions elsewhere.
This condition of things Is a disgrace
TO the intelligence of housekeepers
In stating the ease ! have not neg
lected 10 find fault with mistresses as
VII as maids Indeed, the largest
blame rests with the former, for their
intelligence is greater. and intelligence
has It's responsibilities. Servants them
selves are not going to take the trouble
or go 10 the expense of acquiring prop
er training if they can be Just as well
remunerated without. Therefore it re-
mains for the mistress to make i'm
provement possible and TO insist upon
it.
With all the fire of an eXasperated
housekeeper would l preach the doc
trine of education first to the mistress,
for only from that can come education
of the maid. A foreman in foundry
or overseer in a building knows how
to do the work of the men under him,
otherwise they would slight it, partly
because he could not recognize good
work and partly because he would not
discover faults. Is 1t not exactly SO
with domestic service? Then there Is
another thing to consider Many Of us
have no servant at all or only for a
part of the time, and then is the neces-
sity for domestic knowledge doubled.
The remedy for the domestic prob
lem Is the school for domestic science,
nm institution which brings about the
desired result of making housekeeping
science homework a trade. The
most successful school for domestic
science in this country is simply we'll
equipped kitchen accommodating 16
pupils being taught systematic house
keeping Helen c. Candee in Womals

Old ribbons silks or velyets no mat
ter how badly worn and soiled, can be
utilized to make beautiful portieres,
couch covers and rugs having rich
oriental appearance, suggests writer
in the New York Press. The process is
much like that of making rag carpet,
familiar to our grandmothers. The
silk or satin should be cut into strips a
little more than one-half inch wide or
If thin a little wider. Velvet or other
heavy material should be cut little
narrower. The pieces should not be
long and should alternate light and
dark, bright and somber. The heavy
pieces should be distributed so that
they will not predominant in any one
part The ends of the strips are sewed
together firmly, but it requires only
few stitche. to do this. When the rags
have been sewed. they should be wrap
ped loosely, about pound to ball
The balls. when one has enough, are
turned over to weaver, who will
work them up into rugs or curtains Of
any size desired, using a silk warp of
one or more colors, according to taste
The hit and miss arrangement suggest
ed will produce a mixture of well
blended colors. If regular stripes are
preferred, as they often are for Dor
der, rags of one color should be sewed
together SO that they can be uselk ad-
yantagcously in producing stripes of
the required width. y fringe of slash
ed silk to correspond with tne colors in
the portiere usually finishes the bot
tom.
Nearly every one has an accumula-
ton of old silks which could be used
for no other purpose, but would make
up we'll in this way. Old neck ribbons,
belts, sashes, petticoats, Innings, waists,
silk stockings, anything so that 1t Is
silk. can be worked up effectively in
this way.
Wooden goods prepared in the same
way make more substantial rugs. Cot
ton or linen ones are nice for bed and
bath rooms. since they can be washed
readily.

Among the fashions which are pass
ing-which, indeed, may before the
summer Wanes be chronicled as past
may we not mention the sidesaddle?
For generations for some unknown
reason women have submitted to the
uncomfortable and perilous manner of
riding which the sidesaddle makes nee
essary, and many an accident has hap
pened which the feminine equestrian
might have escaped had she been
mounted as n man is, astride the horse.
Modestly conservative women have
been deferred from inaugurating a re-
form because of their natural dread of
appearing conspicuous, but the inVen-
ton of n divided skirt which, falling
below the feet, completely hides them
from view makes the question of cos
tune no longer a bugbear and settles
the problem satisfactorily for the least
aggressive of her sex. There is no rea-
son, so Margaret L. Sangster says,
why a woman should ride sidewise on
horseback when she does not ride sim
llarly on wheel. Her fuller command
of her horse, her lirmer seat and tx
equalized distribution of weight for the
animal are matters to be taken into ac-
count, and in larger cities women are
acting with the dependence in this de-
partment of outdoor exercise. 1t still
requires courage of a high degree to
take the Initiative in small town not
yet familiar with the innovation. but
all that is needed is thai few brave
Indies shall dare To lead, and then the
rest. timid but initiative, will follow.
When the sidesaddle shall have become
a relic and a curiosity, women will be
objects for congratulations. and in
country districts or in parks where
horscWoman is frequent sight the
health rate of our mothers and sisters
will rise in a gratifying measure.
