cnrns and the East.

The feet get even with us and show
their resentment in corns and bunions
and we suffer accordingly discomfort
that with a little daily care might
have been avoided. 1t Is not too
much to say that ones feet should
have even more care than ones hands
The fact that the pedal extremities
are closely encased in stockings and
shoes all day is of itself inclined to
make trouble. They do not get
enough fresh air. and the perspiration
induced tends to make an accumula-
tion of dead skin that should be re-
moved every day. That it is not Is
one of the first explanations of soft
corns. Those painful excrescences
are merely old skin rubbed by moist
ure until the corn becomes a fact.

WOMANKIND
ABOUT SWEDEN

In Sweden women share every priv
ilege offered to their husbands and
brothers. and those who have to earn
their living find the doors of no pro-
fession shut in their faces.
Women invade everv public depart
ment. They are bank clerks, as we'll
as postofhce clerks, and life in
Swedish town is made pleasant for the
worker.
1t is to Sweden that the Socialist
might look for examples. The State
interferes very little with the liberty
of the subject. Legal matters are so
arranged that the poorest man can
hope for Justice at a small cost. Arbi-
tration IS held in high favor.
Stealing is rarely heard Of. and the
more serious crimes are almost un-
known. The street cars have no con-
6uctors to collect fares: each pas
senger put the money in a little box
by the door. In places Of amusement.
people hang their hats and coats in
a large hall. and there is no attendant
in charge OF valuable furs often left
TO the mercy OF the passerby.
Drunkenness is almost impossible.
owing to the law regulating the sale
OF wine and spirits No tobacco can
be purchased by boys.
The head of an estate Is expected to
look after his people in sickness and
IN health. He educates the children.
pays the doctor. and teaches their
sons and daughters trades.
Sweden Is profoundly religious coun-
try. The Bible is read aloud daily by
the head Of the family, and the Bible
is the first gift made by young man
to his betrothed.

Hatpin Holder.

A unique hatpin holder which is
much more practical than the old
fashioned, tall. vice-like article. is dis
played in one shop. IT has two re-
ceptaRles for hatDins, a vase and a pin
cushion, the former rising from the
centre of the latter. which is a round
velvet cushion. resting in an attrac.
tive silver base. This new holder is
appreciated by the up-to-date woman,
for there is ample space for the num-
erous large hatpins which take an
important place among "the little
things that count"

Modish Footwear.

Pumps, both in white kid and in
white leather. are worn. and the trim
ming for the pumps consists of a tiny
bow of white kid. There are enamel
pumps in the pale colors which go
very well with the pastels, such as
light yellow, the most delicate of
green and the finest and softest OF
heliotrope.
In each and every case the stockings
must match the shoes. and the match
must be exact. There is no such
thing as shoes and stockings that do
not match. They must correspond to
a nicely; fabric. time. and general
style being the same.

SLEEVESFORBLOUSES

Tailored blouses will have long
sleeves; lingerie blouse. elbow length.
The iron-bound rule for sleeves is that
the long shoulder effect be given
either by the cut OF the blouse proper
or the fashion Of the sleeve itself. In
the strictly tailored blouse the droop-
ing effect will be gained by plaits and
long shoulder seam rather than by
the real kimono OF cape sleeve. which
for laundry purposes would be awlx-
ward and not particularly appropriate
with a severe bodice.

HOUSEHOLD HELPS

Care of Hardwood Floors.
Hardwood or polished floors should
be swept each day either with a soft
hair broom or with an ordinary broom
lowered with a canton flannel, secured
by a drawstring where the broom
meets the handle. Have the flannel
wrong side out. The rough side Of
the material will catch up all particles
of dust. In brushing around a rug
with such a contrivancs always turn
back a portion and brush or sweep up
well under the endges. The flooring
also may be wiped over with cloth
wrung out in clear water to which
few tablespoonfuls OF kerosene oil
have been added.
For furniture or floor polishes there
are many excellent preparations pro-
vided which may be procured az
painting and decorating establish
ments A good furniture polish to use
Is composed of crude oil and turpen-
tine in equal parts. Rub we'll in with
a flannel cloth and polish with dry
one. Oil and vinegar N equal parts
also will be found satisfactory. For
mahogany the following preparation
Is suggested. Boiled linseed oil and
hIcoholic shellac varnish-one-third of
the former to two-thirds Of the latter.
Shake well and apply IN small quanti-
ties on a piece OF flannel; rub in well.
Kerosene is used by many regularly
on sweeping and cleaning days Tor
nolishing woodwork. stairs and rail-
ings, wainscoting, etc. A mixture OF
oil and vinegar in equal parts also
Is advised FOR wiping up linoieum.
bIesnIns silk Skirts.
The manner of washing OF cleaning
the new silks skirts now SO generally
worn is quite a problem. The proper
treatment for a skirt is to rub It gent
iy between the hands in lukewarm
water. in which white or CASTLE soap
has been dissolved. Squeeze the water
out with moderate pressure and rinse
in tepid water It is a good idea to
add 10 the rinsing water a few drops

this addition will be appreciated. Iron

ward yellowness that white fabrics

RECITAL IN ORATORY.
Young Ladies of Chatham Insti-
tute Charming Entertainers.

Especial to The Times Dispatch.1
CHATHAM. April 29.-An interesting
event in educational matter was the
graduate recital in oratory given by
four of Miss WoodwelFs pupils at the
Chatham Episcopal Institute last Fri
day night. The young ladies were Miss
Reba Turner, Miss Virginia Halle, Miss
Lizzie Reid, of Virginia. and Miss Nadia
Thomas Bailey Adrich's Judith and
Holofernes." bringing out clearly the
vivid pictures of that beautiful story,
and gave n supplement Taschemacher's
dainty lyric Might and Dawn" with
much grace and sweetness.
Miss Fits gave strong presentation
of scenes from Othello-the trial scene,
the handkerchief scene and final tragic
murder of Desdemona- and suicide of
Othello. Miss Fits possesses decided
histronic gift and her work was cor
daily received.
Romeo and Juliet, with its fcrvid
love scenes. its tragedy and its despair
lost nothing of its traditional beauty
in the presentation of Miss Halle. While
her work was always adequate the
double tragedy in the tomb OF the
Capuets were especially satisfying.
The intensely interesting dramatic
lyric from the Danish of Hendrc Hertz,
King Rene's Daughter" gave much
pleasure as presented by Miss Reid. Her
character work was admirable and the
last scene-the restoration of sight to
Iolanthe-was given with artistic skill.
