person of artistic tastes, because the
simple transferring of designs to cloth
is not what patrons pay for, as any one
al do that for herself, but it is the
grouping or carrying out of one design
on a number OF different articles, such
as a pillow, curtains, table cover, ETC.,
that brings in large sums of money.
In such a case the simple design is
bought and cut up, added to or detract-
ed from, as the article to be decorated
requires, and this alteration demands
taste and judgment. because when
grouped the pattern should look like a
single design. This arranging cannot

Stop Work and Look Pretty if You
Want to Capture a Good Husband

The woman who loves to work never
thinks of her clothes. The who
hates to work always bears them in
mind; consequently she always presents
a good appearance, says a writer in the
Philadelphia Press.
The oma who hates to work gen
orally has a husband You see, he is a
necessity. She gratis on him the live
long day and makes him do everything
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 ~untroubled.
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?
Well, she usually has a husband, too,
but he is rather in the way thar other
wise. She is very clever, quite as clevec
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 sensible to have
cooling ways, and she scorns powder
and such articles.
She helps her husband, and is v=ry
kind and reasonable in her demands o.
his purse. But is he grateful and happy
OF this account?
No, indeed. He would rather she took
his last cent with a sweet kiss than to
be a. Independent as she Is. He wants
to have a fuss made oyer him He
wants to be thought the whole thirg
He likes to have a wife he can be proud
of, who looks as young and dainty as a
girl. and a woman can only be tn S
type when she doesn't worry. when she
doesn't take life seriously.
If 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 to make a man con-

depending upon the amount of work
required.
The stamping on china, I believe,
must be learned. Whether it would
pay to invest money for lessons 1 am
not prepared to state, as each woman
must decide this for herself. Certainly
the fee is sufficiently modest and the
time for learning is comparatively
short.
Whether there is any demand for the
work 1 could not discover, that is, with
much satisfaction.
1t seems the pupil pays So for i~nstruc-
tions. which can be thoroughly learned
in from five to six days.
Work is guaranteed the pupil when
competent. The price paid for decorat-
ing various articles, vases, plates,
dishes, cups and saucers etc. is from 80
to So a dozen, and the work is quickly
done.
This sounds attractive-thc pupil is
given two pieces to take home, and if
these are satisfactory, she is given
more work.

Mate a Necessity to She Who
Shirks Toll for a
Mirror.

THERE are, after all, only two kinds
of women in this ~world-those
who like to work and those who don't.
You can tell them apart a mile off.
The woman who likes to work usually
looks like thunder when she has pretty
clothes. She wears them in an absent
minded way, and you all know what l
mean by that. Clothes are utterly dead
and without meaning unless some life
is impaired to them by the wearer.

is that she loses interest in her APP
