Preparations arc being made to
furnish the soldiers of the German
Army with paper kettles, which are
a Japanese invention. Although the
utensils are made of pliable paper,
they hold water readily. BY pour
ing water into them they can be
hung over the fire without burning
for a length of time sufficient to
boil the water. One kettle can be
used about eight times.

Curiosities Of Servant Question.


In connection with the advanced
position taken by "labor" in New
Zealand, 1t is interesting to note the
attitude of the domestic servants of
that colony. A union has been
formed which, through its secretary
at Wellington, sent out circulars to
housewives, informing them Of the
claims" of the Domestic Workers
Union, and expressing the hope that
their reasonableness would be &C.
knowledged by signing the agree
ment accompanying the circular let

that "by so doing you will obviate the
unpleasantness of appearing person.

The Manners of American Women.


In Harper's Bazaar, Mr.. Henry
James continues his desperate task
of reforming the women of America.
1t Is their manners that concern him
now, and he writes of them sadly but
frankly.
Let me thus then, making my
image comprehensive, invite 1t to
cover the case of the whole social
opportunity of women in our rough
American world-that world indeed
whose admirable capacity for still
feeding innumerable millions makes
us even yet resent the application to
its liberality of any invidious epithet.
We have to breathe low that it is
rough, and that the free hand we
have given on all sides to our women
has done much less than we might
have dreamed to smooth it; we other
wise invite ourselves to taste over
much of certain forms of the rough
ness. This, however, is a trifle II we
only succeed in insisting, insisting
with lucidity; than which there is no
better way, doubtless. than to appeal
with directness. Directness is
achieved, accordingly, when this petit
tion to tho American woman Is made,
absolutely, against her much-mis-
guided self, and when 1t is asked Of
her to recognize, not that her path
is more lighted than that Of her
downtrodden sisters in other worlds,
but that she literally stands In need
OF three times their sufliciency of adj
monition. 1t is In other words not
three times easier for her to please
and soothe and happily to exemplfy.
but three times more difiicult-by
reason of the false lights that have
multiplied about her and that an at
mosphere absolutely uncritlcal has
done nothing to extinguish."
