TREATMENT OF SERVANTS.
There Is n TwO-Fold Character of
the Situation Which House
keepers Should Realize.

AS the servants home is in the house
where she works the relation between
her and the mistress is more close than
that between clerks and their en-
ployers or workers Of any other sort.
For this reason Their must be more
consideration than when the situation
can be called a purely business ar
rangement. Household service is a
business arrangement, and again it is
not, and those housekeepers who rec
ognize the twofold character of the
situation are the best calculated to
succeed in solving the domestic prob
lem, says Woman's Home Companion.
In the business character of the
situation, you must demand prompt,
efficient labor, honestly and cleanli-
ness; but, on the other hand,
your laborer is a member of your fam
lily, and you will not secure good re-
suits if you forget her womanhood.
There is a great difference in peoples
idea of being kind. But kindly man
ner, orders given as requests, little
attention to the bodily condition of
the worker, a little friendly advice on
matters of dress or similar things that
concern her as a woman, supplement-
ing clean and comfortable room, is
certainly a good type of kindness.

Cnmnressed whisky

No more will the man have to 90
out between the acts to "see friend"
For man in New York state has in
vented a highly concentrated form of
intoxicant. 1t is in the shape Of pill,
and man can carry several homicidal
sprees in his vest pocket and keep &C.
stasy with him during the long and
otherwise exhausting hours at the
theaters. The pills are compressed
whisky, treated something like liquid
hydrogen, and other liquefactions that
are read about in chemistries and new
er seen, because it is of no use to see
them, says the Pittsburg Dispatch
The globules are dissolved in the
mouth, like certain other drugs, and
the things thereafter begin to hap
pen. The smuggling Of sin into hither-
to respectable playhouses and other
places of entertainment is henceforth
easy, and prohibition is in the final
throes of resignation.

FOR DRESSY OCCASIONS.
Materials That Are Now I'm Favor for
Evening GOwns-Pretty Fabrics
for Summer.

Satin foulards will have as great
vogue as ever. Beige, blue, black,
green and biscuit, in combination
with white, represent the character
istic coloring. A new feature is their
broche, ground in waved or shadowy
flower patterns.
Entire gowns are now made up OF
taffetas in all its delicate tones, as
we'll as the ever popular black.
Changeable taffetas are also eX-
tremely fashionable again, prefer
ably in the blues, greens and browns.
Satin-fnished silks, Louis brocades
and MORE interviewer with gold and
silver threads, louisines, pongees and
washable weaves are all favorite
silks. French crystalline is also very
attractive in wedgewood tints. Silk
gauze, with great black polka dots
or embroidered in ribbon design, Is
charming fabric for evening wear,
says American Queen.
Crepe de chine is more than ever
used, and the new lightweight peau
de sole, soft and clinging, is admir-
able for elegance and durability.
Challies, so dainty and practical for
simple gowns, are shown.in the love-
Hest of the new colors, effectively
striped in hair lines or those of
heavier effect, often combined with
polka dots.
Among the innumerable pretty cot
ton fabrics for the summer are
striped grass cloth in white, lawns
with openwork stripes and inser-
tions, ginghams and dimities adorned
with cords, dots and Persian designs.
Mercerized lawn is another inexpen-
sive fabric for simple gowns, RULED
or 1ace-trimmed

WOMEN SMOKE IN PUBLIC.
Hi@h-CIass Hotel in New York City
Has a Room for Their Ac-
cOmmOdatiOn.

As liberal in its views as New York
city is generally conceded to be in
most things, there have always been
certain Puritan prejudices which it has
chung to tenaciously-a few very def
mite laws against the offending of the
proprieties which one might not vio-
late with impunity. Possibly one of
the most stringent of these unwrit-
ten laws has Been that which prohib-
its women from smoking in public
places, says the New York Post I'M
til within very recently, it is safe to
say, not hotel in the city that pre-
tends to cater to the "better element
has allowed its women patrons to
'-Snoke in any of its public rooms.
Either the owners of these places are
becoming broader minded or else the
feminine demand to be allowed to
smoke has become too insistent to be
further ignored. At any rate, this
form of woman's rights has been pub
Iicly acknowledged by at least one
hotel proprietor. In the dining-room
Of high-class hotel an engraved card
bearing this inscription, is placed on
each of the tables every evening;
Gentlemen and ladies wishing to
smoke may do so in the giltroom."
The giltroom is back of the parlor
on the second floor, and nightly it Is
filed with men and women smoking
Simply as a commentary on the prog
ress of the times" the fact may be
recalled that only little while ago
n woman was arrested and taken to Q
pnliee station for smoking on Broad
way.

CANADA'S FARM WEALTH.
EngInnd's Beef Has Been Largely
supplnnted by the Pork of
the Dominion.

The time honOred notion that Can
ada is a land Of snow, where the mer-
curry goes into winter quarters for
nine months of the year, and whose
principal products are furs, logs and
lumber, disappears forever from the
mind Of the traveller through these
rich fertile provinces, states the De-
troit Free Press.
But it should never be forgotten that
the winter is one of the Canadian
farmers most valuable assets. The
cereals grown in the north contain
more fesh-forming and nOurishing
parts than those grown in the south.
1t is a well-known fact that the rains
in England, from November to March,
drain out Of the land into the sea more
initiates per acre than are required
by crop of wheat. The grip Of the
frosts holds these Canadian nitrates
steady until the terminating grain re-
quires them in the spring.
Wheat, oats and barley, the latter
of such fine quality that American
brewers curse to- this day the tariff
that excludes it, are largely raised.
Butter and cheese of the kind which
gourmands dream about are exported
in large quantities, 100000 tons going
in 1900 to the British market. The
value of the cheese exports rose from
$4,000. 900 in 1890 to over $19.0O0,000 in
1900. an increase of over S10,0G0,00O in
ten years.
A curious incident which throws
some light on the dark ways Of the
middleman occurred in connection
with the expectation of Canadian
cheese. The department Of agricult-
ure had some of the Canadian article
traced through the British markets,
and eventually found it masquerading
as cheddar before Montreal cpl
cures.
Fruits of all kinds are grown in the
open air throughout the provinces OF
Nova Scotia. Ontario and Quebec.
Canadian apples are esteemed the fin
est in the world. The people of the
British isles in1900 took S97 600 barrels
of which the value was 81, 400, 900. Along
the shores of Lake Erie peaches and
grapes are raised in great quantities.
and the finest of pears, apples. small
fruits of every description and sew
eral kinds of citrus fruits are common
from Niagara to the northern border.
Nor does this exhaust the agricultural
resources Of this section. Mighty
granted steers and fat heifers cross
the Atlantic in such numbers that the
roast bceef Of old England has become
a memory for grandsires to chuclde
over. while the backwoods hog enos
his DAYS in British metropolitan
slaughter house. Cattle on the hoof
to tbevalue Of SS,O39. 900 were exported
in 1900 to Great Britain. In ten years
ii is confidently expected that the to-
fail value Of food commodities exported
will reach 5000. O0O,O 900, and without any
material increase in the population oc-
cupied i'm agriculture.

HONORING THE PRINCE.
Henry's Engine Didn't "TanIo Up" In
MiggsViIIe According to the
Programme Laid Out.

The little hamlet Of Miggsyillc was
greatly excited. Prince Henry, the
kaiser's handsome sailor brother, was
to visit the tiny village, and every
body was in a culver. Aliggsvillc was
water station, and it might take all
Of ten minutes for the locomotive To-
tank up, and during that time the
prince would be with them.
They're bound to stop for water"
said John Millington, the station mas
ter.
"Well, there's one thing certain
they won't stop for beer said jim
Pettus, gray-haired lounger.
Miggsville is a dry town, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
"TIl bet Jim thinks it's,a pity tibet
locomotives don't tank up at
brew'res," said Cy Braggins, as he
sliced a fresh silver from pine pack
ing case.
"WeIl, o. course we got to do some
thin" said Ike Selvidge, who was
widely recognized as a hustling cit
izen. 1--WE want to show our friendly
feeling same as the other places.
We've got to get up programme"
what kind o programmed" asked
Abe Barnum.
"WelI the girls at the 'cademy can
come out in white dresses" said Ike
"Too cold fer white dresses" said
Pete Hammond.
They can come out anyway an
wave flags" said Ike. "An' we'll get
out Joe Morgan's anvil an fire it jest
as the train comes in. An o. course
the bandit have to get together and
practice an play somethin' German"
"The band!" snorted Pete. Why,
they hain't played together since last
July. An I don't b'lieye they know
anything German"
They kin practice" said Ike, SOL
EMMY.
And so on the eventful day the sta.
tion at Miggsville was a lively sight.
Pretty nearly everybody in town was
there. the academy girls were drawn
up in line, each with flag, the lead
ing citizens in their best clothes filled
the background and at one corner
stood the band, seven men strong.
There was a hOarse boot, distant
rumbling,-a preliminary cheer, and
then an awful turmoil of sound par
alyzed the listening ears. 1t was the
Miggsville cornet band playing the
"Wacht am Rhine" with variations.
On came the roaring train. On, on,
and then. with wild screech, it flew
by and was gone.
"That darned band skeered the To-
comotiye," said Pete Hammond.

A KICKER SOUELCHED.
for n Glass Eye and Saw
Him Get 1t.

Every one knows by experience the
man who is satisfied with nothing, who
eternally kicks at anything and every
thing. Such a one was recently elect
ed to a club in near by city, and be
celebrated his entrance by a wholesale
complaint about everything connect
ed with that particular club. He was
especially emphatic concerning the
paucity of the clubs supplies and said
he never could find anything there that
he wanted. and finally he enlarged
upon the villainous nature of the sery-
ice. Just there was where he made
his mistake. He might have abused
the governing committee or taken a
fall out Of the house committee or
the restaurant, but the servitors were
the pride of the members, and they
could not stand for abuse of them,
saws the New York Tribune.
In the group with the kicker was
a man with one eye, and he rang the
bell. Eddie" said he to the answer
ing hall boy, this eye have in doesn't
fit. I wish you would go to the office
and see if they've one there to take
its place.
Eddie was born and brought up in
New York, and the bruising life of the
metropolis had rubbed the corners
from Eddie until he was fairly smooth.
Consequently he caught on and de-
parted. lie went straight to the mem
ber's locker, where he knew that
supply of eyes was kept against ac-
cidents. Picking out one, he returned
with it in his hand.
Here you are, sir" he said, as he
handed the optic over. "They only
had two left at the Office, sir, but as
the other one was blue I knew it
wouldn't do. There1l be some more
in tomorrow, sir"
The old member slipped it into its
socket. ct will do very nicely, Eddie,
thank you; that's ALL" he said, as
he reached for his drink, and Eddie de-
parted.
Something seemed to strike the
new member, who had been watching
this proceeding with open mouth and
staring eyes, for he silently departed.

EATING BETWEEN MEALS.
A Habit That IL Sufficient Cause for
the Digestive Organs to Go
on a Strike.

Authorities tell us that this habit
is particularly harmful, as the food
| already in the stomach, being partially
or almost entirely digested, the adj
mission of other undigested sub
stances diverts the natural process
and mischievous results are sure to
follow, says the Washington Star.
Certainly when one has eaten heart
lily and of foods which require sew
eral hours for their complete digestion
it would be sufficient provocation for
the digestive organs to go on strike,
which they generally do sooner or
later. But there are many who, while
called upon to expend a large amount
of nervous and mental power, are so
constituted as to be enabled to assim-
ilate but very small amount of nutri-
ment at a time, especially those foods
possessing the highly heterogeneous
character their needs demand. These
individuals, therefore, must needs be
careful not to overtax their digestive
powers by attempting to eat at three
meals a day the amount considered
necessary to sustain the average
healthy person. Their sin will soon
find them out if they do. They then
fly to the other extreme and still cling
ing to the idea that they must re-
strict themselves to the three meals,
they do not eat a sufficient amount to
keep them fit for their work. Eat
what you can digest, as much as you
can digest and just as often as the
actual demand is made for building
or repairing material for any part Of
the "house beautiful" But do not
mistake from whence the order comes;
be sure it is not temptation to an inn
pulse aroused by sight of tempting
