The Same Old John 1.

Old John L. Sullivan always had a
fine Irish wit, and it remains with him
in his advanced age. Not long ago he
was appearing in Baltimore theater
and the manager, for business rea-
sons, introduced him to a wealthy
youth of the town. The youth was a
typical chollyboy, the sort of speci-
men that old John abhors. Sullivan
was washing his face in the theater
dressing room when the two arrived,
and they waited patiently until he had
finished his additions. When John
had dried his countenance he gave the
dude one look, and then said to the
manager: well, l congratulate you,
Jack, is ii boy or a grip"

The report of the department OF ag-
riculture does not indicate that there
will be a serious shortage of bread
stuffs in this country this year. al
though the figures to date show con-
siderable loss In winter wheat as COM
pared with a year ago, the estimated
loss in round numbers being 100000
bushels.
To a considerable extent this is Off
set by larger acreage and a greater
yield of spring wheat which brings the
total indicated crop OF wheat up TO
500 10000 bushels, as compared with
664 100000 bushels at the same time
in 1908 Some important interests in
the trade figure that the consumptive
demand has grown enough to absorb
this difference and that before the en-
tire crop is harvested we will run into
a period of actual shortages rather
than surplus. 1t is also figured that
foreign requirements easily will take
all wheat which is not needed for do
nestle purposes as crop conditions are
generally understood to be unsatisfac-
tory in most OF the old world grain
raising districts.

these things required capital, L put

this might prove an asset, and like a
flash came the solution-insurance

I nut on my coat and hat and went at
once to the agent who had insured my

everything in the superlative, she will

Or If it is a tea room that she plans,
she must make it the quaintest, the

But not alone to those in city envir-

last summer l camped near sluggish
little Illinois river Back of US was
group of a dozen handsome cottages,
and beyond them, on top of the hill, a
farm house. In that farm house was
a girl to whom the coming of the cot
tagers meant emancipation She told
me that for years she had worked for
her father, a plodding farmer, who
never seemed to get ahead. There was
no way for the girl to make money,
until the cottages were built, and then
she saw her chance.
The first day tnaI the IlTSI people ar
rived the girl came to the door and left
a little tray on which was bottle of
ice-cold buttermilk, a square of ginger
bread, a saucer of delicious cottage
cheese and a tiny loaf of bread.
The people ate and approved of the
samples and ordered literally of her
wares. The families who followed did
likewise. She supplied milk and eggs
and on certain days supplied baked
beans or soup or chowder, pies, pud-
dings and custards. OF course there
We're always vegetables from the gar
den. Everything was very good, for
she had inherited her talents from a
long line of excellent housekeepers.
And she told me that she and her
father had cleared more money in two
years from the cottagers than in ten
years of farming

sheer will power and without special
training, succeeded. But the girl who
does these things must put her mind
firmly to the thought of success.

FRENCH SANDWICHES

When the cook or mater familias is
making pies she can use up the left
over pastry in French sandwiches.
Roll the paste thin, cut it into long
strips and bake until crisp Then
spread these strips with jam and
whipped cream and put them together.
The leftover pastry also may be
utilized for cheese straws. Roll the
paste into a thin sheet and sprinkle
with grated cheese Fold it four times
and roll it out again.
This may be repeated if a strong
cheese flavor is wanted. At the last cut
the sheet into narrow strips and bake

THE SERVANT PROBLEM

The American Magazine contains an
article by a nurse maid who writes
about her calling as follows:
why don't more young women enter
domestic service? The reason usually
given is that it is inferior employment.
How does the maid regard her work?
1 desire to present this side of the
subject, and l shall do it as impartially
as l can.
1.-THE fundamental cause of the un-
satisfactory conditions existing lies in
the extremely intimate relations be-
tween employer and employed, The
maid in the solitude of her work thinks
and broods over her employers faults
until they become magnified. Even
kindnesses are sighted as being less
than her due. The maid works from
morning until night that others may
live in ease and pleasure. She sees peo-
pie hourly doing things she would like
to do. There is much complaint among
employers that girls cannot be trusted.
Untrustworthiness does not lie wholly
with the maid.
'Maids have given instance after in
stance of employers listening at their
doors, and of long-delayed payment of
wages and unsatisfactory settling on
leaving a place. The untrustworthi-
ness seems to be mutually felt; often
without doubt most unJustly so.
There are many arguments in favor
of domestic service. There is one chief
one. 1 have learned from those girls
who have been my friends-a home ap-
peals to woman; factories and shops
do not. Given their absolute choice CT
the kind of work they would do, many
would choose some branch of domestic
work. Moreover, the woman going
into domestic service makes netter pay,
her financial gain is greater. Domestic
service is also more healthful. The
sanitary conditions ara better, the work
in itself is not 50 nervous nor under
such crowded conditions; there is not
such monotony of worl: or motion.
People employing servants do not
respect them as equals. although often
this lack is most unconscious. Employ
ers say, I never scold my servants,
and in that very remark is a sure sign
Of lack of respect. BY what right could
they scold their servants? II the maid
does not do her work satisfactorily tell
her so: there is no possible objection to
that; but why scold? A grown person
cannot submit to scoldiug without
loss of self-respect.
Except the usual afternoon ont and
the Sunday or every other Sunday
afternoon and evening, the maid is at
the call of her employers. She may be
graciously permitted other times, but 1t
is a gift, a something for which she
asks, not something that is hers OF
right. Every person should have some
time of each day which is absolutely
his own, even if he Is so tired that he
can do nothing but go to bed"
