ANSWERING TIE BELL.
Some suggestions For the Maid
About This Importnnt Duty.

Some Suggestions For the Maid
About This Important Duty.
The manner and appearance Of the
maid at the front door IN answer to
the bell is said to be the keynote of
the establishment. A fresh white
apron should be placed conveniently
near during the hours of morning work
where 1t can be put on az a moments
notice, the same apron to be used for
serving at luncheon.
The ring should always be answered
as promptly as possible and the door
opened sufficiently to suggest well
come, the maid to be plainly visible
and under no circumstances to remain
partially concealed behind the door,
with head appearing from the side or
arm thrust out to receive card.
A small tray for receiving cards
should be provided to be placed con-
veniently near the door, so that In
passing the waitress may take 1t in
her hand and hold II by her side, par-
TALLY concealed among the folds Of her
dress. In case the visitor gives her
name instead of her card care should
be taken that the tray is not visible In
order that she may not feel that she
has neglected courtesy expected Of
her. When the guest Is prepared with
a card, however, it is a pleasure to find
Q maid ready to receive 1t as soon as
presented. without the delay of reach
ing for the tray, no matter how near it
may be.
If the mistress is engaged or indis-
posed so that she cannot receive calls
she should instruct the maid to that
effect before the door is answered. In
showing a guest out the waitress
should open the door wide, holding it
so until the guest has descended the
steps or perhaps has gained the street,
II 1t is short walk. She should then
close 1t so softly that 1t may not be
heard.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

The Anrora Coat.

The importation of Angora goats
from South Africa continues to this
country rather to strengthen than i'm
prove the stock, since II is admitted
that as good Angoras as can be found
in the world can be found in Texas.
Indeed, Mr.. Thompson of the bureau
of animal industry, who Is specialist
on goats, he having written a most
interesting work on that subject, says
the best Angora doe in the world is
owned by Mr.. Landrum of Texas.
Angora goats are hardy. They are
practically free from the noxious goat
smell, and hence their meat is excel
lent. They are valuable in destroying
and keeping down weeds and scrub
and, besides, benefit the land on which
they range. Their hair is very valu-
able, and the demand for it increases.

Profitable Cattle.

Good cattle always sell for more
relatively than poor ones. Nelson Nor
rls thus explains the matter: 'The
prices for cattle now tell the story Of
what good blood will do in making
profitable cattle, the best cattle selling
at or above Sc and the thousands of
little cattle that have to sell around
$3.50 to 1919, showing what the lack
Of breeding and careful feeding does.
Our farmers need to raise cattle OF
better blood, and that will mean to
them that fewer in number will bring
the same profits, with less feed and
better demand at markets"

Breeding the
Coach Horse

A true coach or carriage horse is
born as well as made. Glance at the
picture of the few weeks old colt here
produced from Breeders Gazette. See
that he stands flatfooted in the yard
just as he will in after years. Here
Is n coach horse built from the ground
up, and any one who goes into the
business of breeding such horses must
lay his foundation broad and deep. He
may rest assured that he can never
win out by any haphazard, happy go
lucky method. His colts must be born
coach or carriage horses.
This is not a hard condition to be
met 1t is fortunate that there are at
the hands Of American farmers right

A Woman,s WsrIs.

A woman has a personal work and
duty relating to her own home, and q
public work and duty which is also
the expansion of that. The woman's
work for her own home is to secure
its order, comfort and loneliness. The
woman's duty, as member of the
commonwealth. is to assist in the or
dering. in the comforting and in the
beautiful adornment of the state. What
the woman is to be within her gates,
the center of order, the balm of dis
tress and the mirror Of beauty, that
she is also to be without her gates,
where order is more difficult, distress
more imminent and loneliness more
rare-John RuslIin.

coach breeds, stations which have won
high honors in European and American
show rings, and the services Of these
stations can be secured at reasonable
fees. OF the native stocks we have
the thoroughbred, standard bred and
Morgan mares, together with, in some
sections, large number of mares of
good blood but intraced lineage, which
by virtue of their conformation, spirit
and action might proftably be util-
lied in this remunerative work. The
CHOICE of breeds Is not here discussed.
but all breeds are at hand and avail
able In their best estate-Brench, Ger
man, English, standard bred, thor
oughbred.
1t must always be remembered that
in the COACH or carriage horse, from
the pony 10 hands high to the ma
jestic 1872 hand barouche horse, quail
ty and evidence OF the blood must be
abundant With this must 60 the ac-
ton, high and snappy in the pony and
park horse, powerful and impressive
in the larger town horse. Given good
action and with it common, low
headed, ragged hipped individuality
and our high priced animal is trans
formed into a nag at best selling for Il
much less price than he would have
brought had he possessed the right for
nation.
Another point for consideration is the
fact that the experience of the most
successful breeders of these horses is
that the use of great lubberly, over
grown horses on the draft horse or
"carty" order will not result in the pro-
duction of the desired progeny. The
stallion to beget suitable animals for
this high priced trade must himself be
one that If gelded would sell for a
very long figure to take his place in n
brougham or other heavy harness vehi-
Gle. With the mare It Is largely the
same, but somewhat more Of range and
raggedness and roominess may be &C
cepted Ia her If she is 20 be mated 80

A late innovation among Swedish
woodworkers Is the staining Of wood
before seasoning, the idea being that
Of an Austrian inventor. The sap is
driven out by pressure, and the color
ing liquid, which may be one of the
more permanent anlline dyes, is intro
duced. Birch, beech, alder, plane, elm
and lime may be so treated, the color
not being taken uniformly by oak, fir
and pine. The stained wood Is not only
adapted for furniture, but Is recon-
mended for doors and window frames
and even for outside finish.

Build n Simple One n You Cannot Az

The most conspicuous and, when
beautiful, the most impressive piece of
dining room furniture Is the sideboard,
and it should represent the most judi
cious selecting. When OF good design
it always lends dignity to the simplest
room and forms a permanent element
Of value In the home.
If one cannot afford sldeboard of
merit, rather than to get the poor ar
ticle OF ordinary commerce, one de-
rives more solid satisfaction from
some creation of the carpenter. For
So or SO you can have a picturesque
cupboard.
Have four narrow pine shelves above
and three wider shelves below, sup
ported by upright pieces at either end.
Paint OF stain the shelves and set the
top Of the wide shelf with silver like
a sideboard. Denim, cretonne or flow
cred material is attractive for curtain
ing the shelves, particularly if the
same material is used at the windows.
Blue cotton stamped In white, with
the shelves set out in blue and white
china, makes delightful curtains. The
style is an ideal arrangement in q lit
tie apartment, and with the opulence
that lives in n big city house come
the means that can buy a handsome
sideboard of fine wood and excellent
design.
The cupboard may be made more
elaborate by closing the lower shelves
with doors having well wrought iron
hinges Of brass or copper. The upper
shelves can have glass doors or they
can be left open.
