THERE ARE OTHER GIRLS

"Some of the girls around this big
town make me weary" said New
York young man who likes girls but
hasn't enough money to go the pace he
would be sure to do if he had it. Il
like to take a skoit around whenever l
have the price, and [ do, but when L
haven't the price for the best spread in
town I like girl to make allowances.
Some of them do, but some don't, and
that's the bunch L have no use for.
"One night last summer L got my
knockout on that line, though l had
stood some grumbling before. knew
a girl who ate at the same accent table
dhote that [ did, and l knew she was
not having a rushing time, 1t being
summer, and most of the rushers being
out of town So 1 put in. l asked her
to go with me by trolley to fine little
beer garden in the suburbs, where the
air was cool, the music fair and the
beer very good. She hesitated, but at
last agreed, and we went.
1--WE had a bully time, too, for she
was a bright one and could talk on all
subjects, and talk well. 1 thought L
had her cinched as a summer partner,
when she told me as we started home
that she had had such very, very
pleasant time that she felt she must
thank me formally, so l would know
for sure. OF course, L was thick, and
right off l told her we would try it
again the following night and as many
after that as she cared to take"
"'You are very kind she said, but
l won't go again
"'Why not?' said 1, Jared consider
ably.
"'Because,' she said. I don't want to
cultivate a trolley and beer taste. l
don't care how pleasant this evening
has BEEN or other evenings may be. l
don't want to try any more of them
for fear I would learn to like them,
and I don't want to do that. My taste
is for champagne and motor cars, and
If I can't have them 1 prefer to stay at
home
Nov, did you ever hear of bigger
fool proposition than that? But that
was her argument, and her principles,
too, for l could not get her to change
her mind, and of course l didn't have
the car and the fizZ. I guess I'm better
off without that kind of girl, but she
was n bright one and I hated to lose
her saw her at dinner good many
times after that, but [ never saw her
in a motor car, and some evenings she
did look so lonely that I was almost
tempted to ask her to try the trolley
and beer, but I didn't. once was
enough for me as we'll as her.

Housekeeping Taught by Clubs

a certain number of their meetings
to further this movement.
In this manner, it is expected, wom-
en- will become better acquainted with
the problems that confront each house,
wife, and the younger women will have
opportunity to profit by the expert
ence of the more elderly, hence more
experienced matrons.
Tho work Is not to stop here. Each
club belonging to the federation Is to
appoint a member who will cooperate
in her own field with the work which
Mrs. Pancoast will direct over the
entire state.
The next step will consist of re-
quests to the various boards of educa-
ton throughout New Jersey to incor-
rorate in the public schools a course
of study not only in cooking, but in
virtually every department OF house,
hold management. 1t will be sought
TO teach the schoolgirls so that when
they are graduated they will be COM
petent to begin at any time the direc-
tiOn of a home.

USEFUL INFORMATION

To remove mildew or rust spots put
wet salt on it and let it stand for a
time Then apply a thick paste of
French chalk and water.
Ink can be removed, when not too
old by rubbing the spots with lemon
and salt and standing in the hot sun.
Wicker clothes hampers and all wick
er basKets and furniture are kept much
nicer by washing occasionally with
strong solution of salt water. Set IN
doors in the sun and air to dry.
In the kitchen the clever cook never
forgets the use of salt not only in her
cooking, but as an aid to easy pot and
pan washing.
Dishes that have been spotted by
putting in the oven to heat can easily
be cleaned by rubbing with wet salt
it is also good to remove spots from
agateware and to cut the grease IN
skillets.
To repair either garden or gas hose
use electrical tape. Hose mended in
this way will last a year or two. L
mended a water pipe that l mad a
plumber mend and still it leaked IL
is now more than year since mend
ed it, and it has given no trouble since.
Gas hose that is attached to burners
and bent so that gas can not now
freely can be strengthened at the pend
with a piece of tape-wrap around sew
eral times and it will not break. ANY
one can use it. 1t is inexpensive and
can be had anywhere where they keep
electrical supplies.
To keep slop pals from rustlng ana
leaking, give them coat OF paint ~
side and out. Water buckets sprlnk :
lers or any vessels to be used for cold
water only can be treated the same
way. This can be renewed and they
will last almost indefinitely. Bed

repeated each house cleaning time.
You can use varnish instead of paint
If preferred. If troubled with tieas,
try putting sticky fly paper beneath
the bed.
To clean and renew shine of leather
chairs, brush off first all dust. Then
rub we'll with a mixture of three parts
benzine and one sweet oiH The oil
will cause the leather to darken at

NJ OTHING is sweeter than a "wom-

~ readily distinguished when on her
vacation than at any other time.
On her vacation she has many
chances to demonstrate her good quail
ties She does not hesitate to give the
choice seat next the window in the
train to an elderly lady, or a young
mother who is carrying a child. The
"womanly" woman does not complain
when the accommodations are not TO
her espicial liking, and her face Is
scarcely ever without it's usual CHEEKY
smile. She is neither too frank or the
opposite, and she can generally say
the right things at the proper time.
She is neither too mannish nor too fem

'SPINsTER POLICIES

Frau Wiehe Bereny has formed a
society in Copenhagen which enables a
girl who is not certain that she will
marry to take out a policy which will
insure her a liberal pension if she is
still unmarried at forty. She pays d
sum annually, and if she marries be-
fore forty her policy becomes void. If
she marries after forty the pension
ceases. There seems to be no provi-
sion for the women who marry and
whose husbands cannot support them.

w HAT woman isn't tired of being
wv bossed around by someone over
her business affairs?

III
wv bossed around by someone over
her business affairs?
1 am not talking about women in
general, but the women who are bread
winners. To boss or be bossed in pri-
Vate life is something to be settled in
friendly compact or by divorce courts.
But there is an increasing army OF
women toiers who must either work
UP into a position of independence or
settle down to be dumb driven cattle,
and then some.
What the business woman needs to-
day is firm determination to have
little business all her own. Why should
she be content to be boSsed about year
in and year out? There must be some
one thing she can learn to do well
enough to be a master. If she is now
working in a dressmaklng shop there
is no reason in the world why she
should not set up a little shop of her
own as soon as she is sure she knows
the game thoroughly. The other women
had pluck enough to do this.
Why wouldn't she? asks Molly Mat
thews in the Chicago Tribune.
Fear of failure is the bane of the
woman wage Garner. She has ability,
Is faithful and energetic. But she Is
fearful And fear spells long hours Of
toll to build up another's reputation In
stead of ones own. Cast fear to the
winds and start out for yourself.
Even though she does not branch out
for herself. the woman who is working
for a living has 1t in her power to be-
come a law unto herself. She can do
this by making herself competent for
