MANAGEMENT OF SERVANTS
now TO Engage Maid and Instruct
Her IntelliHently.

Her IntelliEently.
When engaging servant be careful
20 explain her work to her: also show
her that the work must be done In
your way and not hers or the way her
former mistress had It done. When
she does well in her work encourage
her by a few words of praise. Never
reprove her in the presence of others
and above all while she is serving a
meal, says the New York Journal.
Retain your temper at all times.
Give your orders for each day as early
as possible. and if it seems necessary
write them down very distinctly and
clearly on piece of paper and fasten
1t up in the pantry, kitchen or some
other convenient place.
See that she Is extremely neat in her
dress, hair neatly and simply arranged,
no jewelry worn. a perfectly clean
apron. collar. cuffs and cap and a
spotless gown. 1t is well to give strict
orders in regard to the hours when the
servants are allowed TO have visitors.
Iell the maid who opens the door
never to let the visitors stand in The
hall. but to show them Immediately
Into the drawing room. Instruct her
carefully what she must say In reply
to messages left at the door or when
persons who call are not to be ad-
mitted.
Most persons prefer to have the maid
say that Mrs. Brown is not at home"
meaning that she is not at home to
callers. 1t is purely matter. of form
and is not considered an untruth.
However. some persons are scrupulous
In this matter and prefer to have the
maid say, Mrs. Brown begs to be ex.
cused this afternoon"

There are stN eral common sense
ways of obtaining sleep. One of them
Is the application of cold wet cloths to
the back of the head and neck. This
treatment will hot be followed by a
reaction if it Is continued for a number
of minutes. and it often works surprls-
lngly well. says writer in Worlds
Work. Another way Of solving the
problem is 70 soak the feet in hot
bath until The veins become dilated
with blood, or the whole body up to
the hips may be given hot soak.
With some people two or three min
ute hip bath is the most effective rem
edy. Others find help in a few slow
exercises which do not jar or excite
the system, tut simply bring some IA
tigue to the big muscles of the trunk
and limbs. Friction of the skin, espe-
cially of the lower part of the body, is
another means.

City Folks, loo, Caught on an Old
FIm-FIam Game,
SUPPOSED AGENT TOOK THE MONEY
HOLSTERS Pay Out $500 for Clothes
They Never Got-Look in Vain for
Man Who Sr%indIed Them Out Of
Their Hard-Earned Dollars.

COLUMBUS. IND. Oct 12.-It Is
estimated that about $500 has been
picked up in the ncighborhoud of St.
Louis Crossing and Clifford. in this
county, by presumed agents of Chi
cago tailoring concern.
Country people were the main ones
caught in the scheme. but residents
! of this city also are said to be vic
tins.
few days ago a man came to
the county and said he was an agent
of Il Chicago tailoring house. He
Had samples Of goods and order
blanks with him and was selling
tailor-made suits of clothes for the
low price OF $40 Il suit.
His plan was To take the order le;
/ the man select sample of goods he
wanted. ami enter the number. then
collect the $40 ana set Il date when
the customer was to come to this
city and meet the agent Here the
customer wa; supposed to have his
measure takcn,. after which the meas
IRE would be sent TO the Chicago
house the clothing made and shipped
10 the customer by express.
The agent also made another propo-
sition which was that If the Gus
toner would buy three suits OF
clothes ana two dress patterns
amounting to $50, the house would
give handsome tailor.madc suit free
OF charge. This scheme caught
number of persons. as 4 man would
buy Il suit for himself. two for his
sons ana perhaps one each for his
wife and daughter or two for his
wife.
In every case the $50 was paid
over To the agent, and date was
set when the men and women could
come here and have their measures
taken.
When the victims came in TO see
the agent in this city, expecting to
have their measures taken and their
clothes shipped. they were unable To
find the agent They have been UNI
able 10 locate the company.

ed to more than sS,0OO,O00. although
scarcely more than 100000 appears
in the will.
Not penny will so to charity.
One-third of the estate is left to Mrs

amount, is divided among his six chill

The other two are Charles +. Bauer

and George Karsch, of the Karscll

probably will begin operations next
month. Besides Adams owned an
enormous amount of real estate out

in various business enterprises.
Mr.. Bauerdorf said that the stories
of Adams's losses in the Sage failure
had been exaggerated Mr.. Tietjen
said that ne had refused to act as en-
ecutor as only two executors were
necessary, and the other two had been
closer to Adams. He said he did not
think that 1t was excessive to ap-
praise the estate at $8,000000.
The will was dated August %, 1906,

committed suicide in the Ansonia. An
annuity amounting to sf25 month
is left to Celia NJ Thatcher, Mrs.
