ERROR MADE BY HOUSEWIFE
High-Priced Cuts of Beef Really Con. tain Less kutriment Than
 the Others.

The world of education will come in for large share of attention at the beef consumers congress in Denver next January. At the present time so per cent of the beef demand is for the loin and ribs, while the chuck and round and other portions of the ami nal go begging for customers. In the average beef carcass loin and ribs constitute only about 20 per cent. of the total available meat and fully so per cent of the demand is for this 25 per cent. of the carcess. AS re- suit the loin and ribs sell at enormous. ly high prices, while the other DOT tions are comparatively cheap For instance. in Denver today the average price of ribs is about 30 cents per pound. and the loin brings from 27 and half to 35 cents per pound; the round and trump can be bought from IT and half to 20 cents, chuck for 15 cents. plate and brisket for eight cents and less, and the flank and suet from eight to ten cents per pound. AS a matter of scientific fact, the round and chuck contain more nutriment than do the loin or rib. so that it is merely matter of preparation.

The MaidIess Home.

There is a lady in an aristocratic suburb who Is able to keep a half dog. en hired girls. but she won't have any at all. She is her own cook, her own waitress, her own housekeeper. and she says she lives as happy as a bird, and her husband says so, too. He likes it. There is serenity in that household that makes home as sweet as a shady nook in Eden.
 If man wants only rice for sup. per, he gets rice. If he wants a linR of sausage for breakfast he gets that If he wants for lunch an oyster stew there 1t is; it's only a matter of a few minutes and a few smiles. There is true life, and it's abundant, too. and if John wants to help clear of the table, there is picnic. We must not think that life is only manly when il is lounging in club room, smoking ten-cent cigar. It is manly most when it mixes a happy heart with the little needs of life.--Ohio State Jour nal

ONE ON MORGAN'S PARTNER
In His Youth, George w. Perkins Achieved Other Than Financial
 Distinction.

Of course It may seem mean to dig 1t up OH him now that he's made good but George w Perkins, now famous as partner of J. Pierpont Morgan. was once a singer in church choir in Cleveland and his only claim to GStlnctlon in those days was an incl. dent now past the memory of all but the older inhabitants of this town.
 George lived here when he was a young man in his early twenties and he liked to sing. He had first-rate voice and made the choir out at Beck with Memorial church, if one Is cor rectly informed as to the particular church The choir singers sat in a loft back of the pulpit almost hidden from the congregation At that time there were two or three remarkably pretty young women in the choir Well, there wasn't any harm in the bass or tenor singers looking at the contralto or soprano members of the choir and feaSting their eyes on them when the sermon dragged, was there? Certainly there wasn't But being seated all in row, 1t was necessary for one to tilt back ones chair in or der to get square view of a face at the other end.
 That is wha George w. Perkins did one bright Sunday morning, if the dope is handed down alright. He shift ed his chair about a trifle to get a still better view. Unhappily, one leg of his chair had been resting close to the top of the steps that led down from the choir loft to the main audi tOri'Ir, When George shifted his chair

the travelling gowns that are being
made up for October brides are of fine

the trained skirt and deliberately
trimmed bodice of the princess gown
being supposed to represent two
pieces. and the long and fancifully
shaped directoire or empire coat the

costumes of one material trimmed

may be made artistic and beautiful by

raphia is that the work is quite easy
and the results are remarkably good,

for working cost practically nothing.
; One may buy bunch of raphia-

skein of wool yarn-for ten cents. The
iraphia may be used on many materi-
ais; denim, for instance, fine netting
or a coarse cotton material. The
needle used should be a darning
needle, and If the raphia is too thick
it may be split to the required size.

what we called the aunt.
After 1t was all over, others con-
fessed to the same experience. Sporty
some most of the time. You may won
der why the aunt permitted the Merry
Widow to settle down in the midst Of
US. 1t was as plain as day. The widow
was used to having her say. though
nothing could discourage Pickles from
"butting-in." And we all agreed that
the, aunt was a necessary accessory.
only some Of us used words both short
er and uglier.
The widow explained she had come
to Jake Mann's because she had heard
that those who foregathered there
were strictly on the level. Even at the
semi-swell hotels she couldn't be SO
sure of that as at Jake's. Jake's law
was: Be square. And Jake enforced
1t much better than the statute laws
are enforced In New York or anywhere
else. The Merry Widow didn't pretend
to have q fortune, but she said she
wanted to see New York and had come
east for that purpose. The Fourteen
club took turns showing her.
Pickles always went along. In all
fairness to Pickles, I'll admit she
never made herself obnoxious except
by her presence. But you felt her.
like an air laden with malaria, always
about you. The desire to talk to the
Merry Widow alone was ovsrpower-
ing. Then one day came the announce
ment of sad news. She was going
back to Yaleville. Wis. She had had
enough Of New York. II she stayed
any longer. she would want to stay
forever.
That filled Us all with the widest
hopes, and there wasn't = man Of the
Fourteen but felt he Just must ask her
to stay ON with him. But where was
Tie chance to be found! Pickles
