SOUTHERN PACIFIC
|. OFFICIAL SUCCUMBS
Division Superintendent at Sac
ramento Fails to Recover
From Recent Illness

The news of the death of Dennis
Burkhalter, division superintendent of
the Southern Pacific at Sacramento, was
received in the railroad Offices of the
Flood building early yesterday, and
many were the expressions of regret
over the passing away of the old time
railroad official.
He was taken i'll when on the official
tour of inspection by all the division
superintendents last month, was hur-
ried back to Sacramento, and taken
from the car 20 the hospital. where he
died at 7:10 yesterday morning.
Burkhalter knew the mountain divi-
sion as few men know it. He had been
for many years stationed at Truckee,
and, after q. long and faithful service
at that point, was transferred to Sacra- :
mento as assistant superintendent to
j. B. Wright who died several years
ago. He was afterward sent to Tucson.
then to Bakersfield, and recently to
Sacramento.
1t is said that he took the position
against the advice of his wife, who
represented to him that he was get
ting well on in years and that the task
was too onerous for his strength. He
replied:
ut will be only for two years and
then l will be put on pension"
He was an untiring worker and was
one of the best men the company had
to straighten out a tangle. He was
liked by the men and had their entire
confidence.
His family was by his bedside when
he passed away. with the exception of
his eldest daughter who is travelling
In Europe with her aunt Burkhalter
was in his sixty ninth year, and for the
past few years had been victim OF
liver complaint.
A special train will convey the re-
mains of the late division superinten-
dent to Los Angeles, where the body
will be interred.t 1t will leave Sacra-
mento today and will be in charge of
j. T. Bell, chief dispatcher, and C. r.
Petrie, foreman of engines.

The Introduction

Except in the house of friend, in
PRODUCTIONS should never be made with
out first asking permission. If the
presentation is to be that of a man to
woman, 1t is her consent that must
be first given; If of two women. the
older should be allowed the privilege
of declining, should she wish. 1t is
taken for granted that every person in
the house of friend is willing to
know the others, yet even here it is not
an error to ask women IL she cares
to meet certain man. Such inquiries
are not made within his hearing-in-
deed, he is supposed to know nothing g
of them. But should he be in another
part OF the room, the woman or man
who wishes to present him will do
we'll to ask the other before bringing
him to her. There is always a possi-
bility of a reason why a woman may
not care to know. man, and she should
never be placed in the position of hay-
ing his acquaintance forced upon her.
gether meet, another woman erossin e
the room, either woman can in good
form present the man without waiting e
for permission. The reason of this is
obviously that ii would be extremely
awkward not to make two persons fac
ing each other acquainted. Should a
woman have real reason for not wish
ing to continue an acquaintance begun
under such conditions, she need not
recognize the man later, for the meet
ing was practically forced upon her
alda and It Is her privi,lese TO forget the
certain that the reason for cutting a,
man is beyond criticism.
A younger person is always pre-
Sented to an older one, and q man to
woman. There is no exception to this
rule save in Europe. where rank de-
cides the matter. The form OF intro
duction should always be simple. and
there is none better than - Mrs. Smith

Why did your grandmother boil dirty
clothesP To soften and loosen the dirt.
That's the only way she knew. Now
Feh-Naptha soap will do the loosening
better in cold or lukewarm water.
Fels-Naptha is an invention, same as the
telephone or sewing machine
The up-to-date woman uses
Feis-Naptha because it saves her the trouble
of boiling clothes or heating water and
makes hard-rubbing unnecessary. Then
her clothes are fresher and cleaner than if
washed in the old-fashioned, boiling way.
Here's the way to do your white things
with Fels-Naptha: Soap, roll and let soak
a short time in cold or lukewarm water,
then rub lightly, rinse and hang on the
line. Try it once.
Be sure to follow directions on the
red and green wrapper

Jones?" 1t is always courteous and
graceful to add few words that will
help the first conversation between
strangers. If the woman or man maxi
ing the presentation say: "He is an
old friend and | want you two to know
each other or He has heard me spea k
Of you so many times" it instantly
gives the man himself as a topic of
conversation. and there is no mental
sparring for topic besides the weather
to discuss.
Rarely nowadays does a woman give
her hand when man is introduced If
she wishes, there is no possible objec-
tion to shaking hands, and if his own
ness for her to refuse 1t. But if left to
her own inclinations, as she should be.
she may merely bow. If she is sitting
It is not expected that she shall rise

when she stands out of courtesy to his
age. She should not stand for a man
Of her own age or younger.
If the introduction is in a private
house and the woman Is sitting, it is
not etiquette for the man to seat him
woman wishes to know him. and there
is chair vacant, she will ask him to
bring it and sit. Should she fail to do
this, it is a positive intimation that
she does not wish the acquaintance to
progress. If there are no seats avail
able she naturally can not ask him to
sit. and so it means no indifference
that she permits him to stand
Under no circumstances must a man
present any of his friends to a woman
without first getting permission from
her. This rule obtains even in a
private house, and to ignore it is bad
manners.

Ideas for Christmas Presents

Some of the daintiest pincushions
seen this season are of lingerie, and
their development is quite within the
skill of any girl who knows how to
hold a. needle. The covers are square
and oblong in shape and are finished
like miniature sofa cushions edged
with a ruffie. White lawn, hemstitched,
is used for the ruffie. On the top d
square of ifilet lace is used as a decora :
tion.
When finished the covers are slipped
over colored satin cushions, which can
be bought for the purpose. OF course,
these pincushion covers launder per-
fectly, and surely there could be moth
ing prettier for holiday gift
Girls who are looking for something
on the unusual order as gifts for their
male friends should see the college
ware before making purchases. There
are the daintiest chocolate sets, tea
pots, cracker jars. creams and sugars,
plates both large and small, besides
ash receivers and other male necessi-
ties.
