THE HOUSEHOLD PROBLEM.
Simplicity Must Be Followd if Domestics
Are to Be Kept.

Mrs Russell Sage who. it may be
noted in passing. has kept her eoachman
thirty years, one maid twenty, another
ten, and has had three long-tcnn cooks.
all Of whom married from the house-has
said some sensible things lately about
the servant question, in connection with
her interest i'll the Nv omen Domestic
Guild. 1t is all very we'll to say. as
many harassed housewives may, that
Mrs. Sage, beng very rich woman,
can EARLY get good servants and keep
them. But the point of her remarks, OF
the contrary, is that simplicity and econ
omy IN domestic met lods must he fol-
lowed If good domsstics are to be kept.
She considers her record ''as much a
matter for pride, perhaps, with a wom-
an as any so-caled social achievement"
Then she abdicateS personal credit for
II by making it largely a result of the
family life. No late and elaborate dim
ners. no unusual or excessive service,
are required. The servants rooms are
sunny and comfortable, the food simple
but appetizing. These suggestions Ger
talnly can he followed by any housewife.
Then comes an idea that deserves think
ing oVer-that the mistress, being the
home maker. should know her work and
he proud of it. Her personality should
hc felt through the whole. Hers is the
larger charity and the longer patience.
She has i'm opportunity to fit the
younger and less experienced for futures
uf greater usefulness. and to make the
lives of those long in serytude less bur-
dcnsome. Homes not family head
quarters. arc what is needed. and to
nave home there must lie thought and
tact. The domestic who feels herself
part of successful home will stay.
In how many So-called homes today an
ignorant mistress. dcspising all the de
tails of household work. confronts an al
most equally ignorant maid with no
pride in her half-learned trade These
two negatives of d0mcSticity cannot re-
suit in any Affirmative of it. When the
mistress knows the essential details of
housekeeping and throws her whole
weight of character and influence
towards tactful training of domcSticS
She will find good ones. and keep them
