MAKING STOCKINGS WEAR WELL.
Take that Much Neglected stitch
in Time.

Children's stockings are an expensive
item of dress, so that any plan which will
make them last is welcomed by the eco
nomical mother. First Of all, be willing
to save money in the long run by spend
ing 1t generously at the outset. Mark them
well with the child's monogram. These ini-
tials can be had in any combination of two
letters at the department stores. BY offer
ing her some slight incentive the dear little
owner may generally be induced to sew
them neatly upon her own stockings.
Before beginning your stitch in time
which is the most worthy and usually
neglected Of all housewifely arts, array
yourself In your most attractive and rest
full house gown. Place your pretty work
basket beside you. Be sure you have silver
handled scissors and everything dainty TO
tempt you often TO sew. Put on your aris-
~tocratic gold thimble, for any woman can
take finer. prettier stitches when wearing
a pure gold thimble. Now take the blessed

undergraduate politics to planning and
carrying through the social functions Of
gala days where guests are numbered by
hundreds or by thousands. The athletic
association may trust her with grave
responsibilities in the selection and laying

intercollegiate tournament. II her Greek
letter society is building it's chapter house
1t may fall to her lot to confer with archi-
tects and decorators, buy rugs, divans and
other furnishings or engineer the finance of
the whole enterprise. The sense of dis
lance between senior and freshman is not
altogether fictitious. On the practical side
of life alone the four years cannot count
for more than arithmetic confesses.
Women's colleges have faculties dis
g~ruutled in proportion as they find their
occupation gone. They are no longer
asked, in most instances, to make and to
administer rules for student conduct. The
students are self-organized into a self
directing and self-disciplining body. The
faculties are obviously out Of place In this
projected dreamland of youth and mirth
and beauty. Hence they are prone to COM

The outlook for the salmon market

vices received at The Astorian office

Reports indicate total pack for the

the heavy pack of 1901. This short
age is principally in the pack OF cheap
fish. and, with the growing demand for
canned salmon, will aid the market to
