years have women to certain outward
appearances seemed so UNIT for any
privileges which called for the exer-

You can tell them apart a mile of.
The woman who likes TO work
usually looks like thunder when she
has pretty clothes. She wears them in
an absentminded way. and you all
know what j mean by that Clothes
are utterly dead and without meaning
unless some life is impaired to them
by the wearcr.
The woman who loves to work never
thinks OF her clothes. The woman who
hates TO work always bears them in
mind; consequently she always pre-
sents a good appearance.
The woman who hates TO work gem
orally has a husband You see. he Is
a necessity. She CRAFTS on him the
livelong day and makes him do every
thing for her. And yet he is perfectly
happy. because. thanks TO her being so
lazy. she is good to look upon. Her
skin IS satin smooth and her eyes un-
troubled. She is never too tired TO be
amusing She has sweet and cooling
ways. She is never hurried or dusty
or tired.
But the other woman?
Wen. she usually has a husband,
too. but he Is rather I'm the way than
otherwise. She is very clever. quite as
clever as he is. and her interests are
quite as numerous as are his. SO you
see she is pretty nearly always hurried
and dusty and tired. She is too SEN
sible to have cooling ways. and she
scorns powder and such artfulness
She helps her husband and is very
kind and reasonable ir. her demands
on his purse. But is he grateful and
happy on this account?

II you want to know the truth. In
nine cases out OF ten a wife does more
harm by earning money than good
The chief effect is 70 make n man
consider himself wronged. and very
justly so. by losing his home atmos-

Is in an Office all day. And the second
effect Is that she loses interest IN her
appearance and good looks. which are

PASSENGER SERVICE ON MIAMI LINE
 OUTLINED
PUBLIC MUST DEPEND ON LIM- TIED FACILITIES UNTIL
 NEED ESTABLISHED

When the new Miami extension opens for business, which will be within the next two weeks, in all probability, daily train service will be established on that line, according to statements made by Superintendent Mallard of the Gila Valley line yesterday.
 What the regular service will be even tually remains to be seen. h the opin. ion of the local officials, passenger ser vice will depend upon the demands of the residents of the Miami district.
 With tho opening of the new line, passengers who desire to travel by rail will have to depend upon freight train schedule.
 For several months, the Miami Cop per company will require the use of locomotive four or five hours daily. A mixed train, made up of any freight ears which may be in transit to Miami, and caboose, will run to Miami in the forenoon and return later in the day as result. Eventually, if the traffic demands il, a gasoline motor car will be put on, giving hourly service, if trips Of such frequency are necessary.
