HINTS FOR MOTHERS.
Device Which Does Away With Sew.
ing on Buttons.

From vogue
An ingenious invention has recently
been brought out for children's under
waists by which mothers are freed from
the task OF sewing on new buttons: for.
when a button breaks in the laundering
of the waist, as buttons have habit of
doing by very simple device a new one
may be put in its place without the aid
of single stitch. The secret of IT is
this-a narrow tape which comes attached
TO the button Is drawn through a stitched
strap and back again over the button in
such d way that 1t is made absolutely Sc
cure. What a time-saver this will be for
the busy mother and the overworked
nurse.
An excellent amusement for children
and one which never loses its charms is
that of modelling but great difficulty is
usually found in obtaining a good, pill
able material which will not dry and soon
become useless. A special kind is now
for sale which always keeps the same
consistency and is besides. not the least
bit sticky or harmful. 1t comes in five diff
ferent colors-yellow. green. Delft blue,
brick red and gray-and these may be
mixed together to give any desired
shade. In this way the natural colors of
the objects to be copied may be carefully
reproduced. Besides being instructive and
interesting to the child, 1t gradually de-
velops dexterity of the fingers. The child,

mais. Explanatory pictures can be had

In these twentieth century days. when

the bachelor maid to bear the ills she has

II IS reassuring to read a statistical ~

by the census department. II seems that
Uncle Sam became interested in this mar
riage question and sent his patient census
enumerators to all the tying up places i'm

The results are astounding. During the
last twenty years almost 26. 900, 900 bride

MANCHESTER. England. March 20

seizing the opportunity OF the present low

moderately. while home trade orders were
rather better.
Yarns during the week experienced some
retail demand at "a decline. which was
insufficient TO absorb even the reduced
output. Stocks are further accommodating.

Director Ralph of the bureau of engrav-
ing and printing last night explained the
statement in The Star yesterday after
noon that the new and complicated ma
chimes. the first of which has just been
installed in the bureau and which will
do. in one operation. what formerly has
been done by three different machines
in three separate processes. will result in
saving of $4,000 a year and in the
discharge OF at least 10 employees. While
the machines would save approximately
this amount Director Ralph said that
they were to be installed so gradually
that undoubtedly places would be found
for the persons whose positions were thus
taken away, in some other portion of the
bureau or in some other branch of the
government service.
Representative Tawney OF Minnesota,
chairman of the House appropriations

MILKING,

Milking under quiet, favorable con
ditions is quite important for the fol
lowing reasons plainly set forth by
John Burroughs, the eminent natural
list. in speaking of the supposed pow
er of COWS to ''hold-up' their milk.
Says Mr.. Burroughs; Most farmers
and country people thing that the
giving down or holding up the milk
by the COW is a voluntary act In
fact, they fancy that the udder is a
vessel filled with milk, and that the
COW releases OF withholds it just as
she chooses. But the udder is a man
ufactory; 1t Is filed with blood from
which the milk is manufactured while
you milk This process Is controlled
by the cows nervous system; when
she Is excited or in any way disturb
ed, as by stranger, or by taking
away her calf, or any other cause, the
process Is arrested and the milk will
not flow. The whole process is as in
voluntary as is digestion In man, and
Is disturbed or arrested in about the
same Missouri Dairyman.
