one way Of doing 1t. She goes to Wash

The butcher she patronizes usually has
them ready for her. She goes very early
and makes the round Of the stalls carrying
her purchases as she makes them to her
barrels at the butchers. His boy slows the
packages away safely and ties a newspaper
over the tops Of the barrels BY 10 o'clock
her purchases are made and she pays an
expressman 25 cents apiece to have the
barrels delivered at her house before
O'Clock in the afternoon. The expressman
makes business Of Harlem deliveries and
takes the barrels at a reduced rate in con-
sideratipn of a regular job three times each
week. The boarding housekeeper declares
that she saves at least s. out OF every $40
that she would spend for the same produce

What Will Women Dor
From the Montreal Star.

Women are going to get their chance now
in Australia. BY law of the common
wealth an adult woman has the same right
to vote as an adult man. The male voters
in the entire commonwealth outnumber the
female by nearly 10000 (973.OO0 to S54 ,OOO).
but in the colony Of Victoria, as well as In
the cities of Sydney and Melbourne, the
women have very decided majority. II
