Margaret L. sangsterp Harper's
Bazaar: Our maid s~erv:aBssAre young
When they reach the farthest verge Of
youth they are not wanted any more,
and if they have spent, as some Of
them do, their best years in Il no
madic state, never staying long in one
situation, plodding about here and
there, u%nlearning in n house what
was learned in another, they nre fe-
male lshmaelitcs, of a type to be
dreaded and pitied. Being young, they
have the impulses and needs OF youth
for amusement and companionship,
and, as they do not deliberately vow
to remain celibate, they hope to
marry. The mistress who takes into
serious consideration this natural as
piration goes far toward securing for
herself contented service.
No self-respecting employer will
ever scold her maid. This goes with
out saying. Also, no sclf-rcspecting
employer will be afraid to find fault,
honestly openly and good tempered
~, when fault is to be reprobated. In
serious crises the mistress would al
ways do well to send for the maid for
an interview in her own room, gain
ing nj accession OF dignity from her
background. This is an extreme meas
ure. Ordinarily, in her daily round, it
is enough for the mistress, gently and
pleasantly, to express her dissatisfnc-
ton and to suggest a change. Ser
wants arc not unlike children in their
aversion to q person who nngs and
frets and fuses, md in their compre-
llension Of the eyen-handed Justice
which lnetes out deserved blame.
Praise, too, should not be sparinglys
bestowed. It oils the domestic wheels
and saves annoying friction.

Montenegrians, is2sery large. The in
%congruity appears when they stand
together, which is not often. Most
of their pictures are taken with her

ride together he sits upon cushions,
which make him look equal to her in

and ride MS well as any OF her athletic
