All cooks do not understand the diff ferent effects produced by hard and soft water in cooking meats and vcse tables.

has been used Is very considerable.
There has been one sale from the re-
serve for box boards and one for tele-
phone poles. but the three main uses
continue 10 oe for mine timbers, rail-
road ties, and firewood.
Red fir is preferred for railroad ties,
then yellow pine, timber pine, and
range pine. White pine has been OBJ
jected to because of its lack of dura-
bility, but it is now taken In many
places. At Rosemont, Colo, burned
timber of all kinds is made into ties,
some of the material having been
burned fifty years ago. 1t Is asserted
that dry ties last as long as green ties
and in many cases longer. On the
Cripple Creek short line" they were
more satisfactory than green pine
ties from Texas. Dry ties hold a
spike we'll, and tie plate does not
cut into the wood so seriously as 1t
does in the case Of green tie. Engel-
mann spruce is as good as other spe-
cies as far as mechanical wear is con-
cerned, but it decays much quicker
and so should be given a preservative
treatment
Burned timber was first used for
boxes by the Denver Crate and Box
company in February, 1908, the spe-
cies being Engelmann spruce and
lodgepole pine, with some red fir and
timber pine. The material used had
been burned from one and one-haH to
four years. The Engelmann spruce
was excellent, and the lodgepole pine
also gave good results The fire sea-
soning had driven the odor out of the
pine so that it could be used for pack
ing crackers and biscuits. Also, on &C.
count of the perfect seasoning the
boxes remained tight when put up
and therefore sold better than green
boxes.
For mine timbers all species are
used, if of the requisite size. Dry tim
Der is preferred because of its light
ness, durability, and stiffness, all
principally due to its better seasoning.
For many purposes fire-killed timber
should be preferred to green timber
because it is so well seasoned. This
seasoning makes it more durable than
green timber, and also makes it light
er, SO that its cost of transportation is
appreciably less, and it is therefore
available, not only for numerous local
uses, but for shipping long distances
Actual experience with the fire-killef
timber proves that its utilization
should be source of profit ito the re-
serve.

The world Is full of easy marks.
Take, for instance, the case of the
woman in New York who engaged
herself to marry long list of men
from whom she obtained large sums
of money. Looked at calmly, with
out prejudice, 1t seems like a trans

newspapers that make a speciality OF
such advertisements, proclaiming her
self as rich widow pining for ma
trimonial companionship. Her vic.
Tins were numerous They came

LEARNING DREssMAkINc.

In selecting a shop in which to
work, choose small, rather than a
large establishment. This will insure
individual attention, correction you
may call it, and chance to work on
all parts Of the gown. In the large
shops you are apt to degenerate into
maker of sleeves or vests or panels,
some one part Of each gown being al
ways turned over to you, and your gen.
eral training thus neglected You may
have to work for six months on moth
ing, or mere pittance of two dollars
per week, if you clean out the work
room. When you are recognized as
filter you do not receive more than
SIS or $40 per week. So if you have
rosy visions of fortune in dressmak-
ing, build for yourself from the very
beginning. Reach out for an opening
along individual lines.
Replying to the many questions
about schools, would say that the
girl who has it in her to succeed will
do SO whether she starts as an ap-
prentice at nothing week, or spends
her fathers money at high-priced
school for dressmakers. The teachers
in a school are perhaps more consider
ate OF your feelings, at so much per
week. than the forewoman of the shop
who is intrusting to your inexperienced
fingers fabrics purchased by her pat
rons, but the consideration paid for
your fathers money will not lead 10
any royal road in dressnaking lore.
That is either born in you, God given
talent, or you acquire it by honest If
fort. Forewomen and schools can
point the way-but you must walk the
thorny road of experience to creditable
results for yourself The most heav-

cording to his statement, has yielded
