In these busy days and times when one hears of a woman pioneer ones first thought Is that she had entered some profession which has hitherto been held sacred to the genus masculis, and, indeed, the art of portrait painting which Miss Mamie Fogarty invaded many years ago, has been followed as well by men as women.
 A pioneer of this kind I found Miss Fogarty when I called upon her a few days ago, and was permitted a glimpse of her studio before the formal salon to which she has bidden her friends on the afternoon of Wednesday. November B.
 Miss Fogarty with her sister, Miss Julia Fogarty is one of the most interesting of the many interesting women, who be- long to the pioneer class of which Miss Annie Kendrick Walker wrote so charm ingly a short while ago. Living as they do, in the same pretty little vine-clad cottage in the street which was named for their father in days gone by, sur rounded with the quaint, old-fashioned things that modernity grasping up around them has not superseded, 1t was q pleas ant experience when I had a little chance to chat with these delightful women about the old days when Birmingham was mere infant In arms-a vast wilder ness of cedars and pines and grasses and marsh.
 One is reminiscent of Dora's aunt in David Copperfield, as one is welcomed by the Misses Fogarty into this quiet lit- tie drawing room commanding a beauti- ful rose garden. Again reminiscent does one become as one sees the thousand or more rose bushes laden with gorgeous, stately blossoms-of the Rose Garden of Worms"-the German legends, which tells us how Kriemhild held court at Worms, where she possessed the beautiful rose garden which Siegfriend with 12 heroes guarded against strangers. Around this garden was a silken thread-its only de- fense in its beautiful grandeur.
 And upon this rose garden of which Miss Julia Fogarty is no less the artist than her accomplished sister is with the brush there hangs a pretty little story, which is nothing more or less than that it was the inspiration of the latter's talent and ambition.
 And tell me just how 1t all happened?' I asked Miss Mamie Fogarty as she kind ly showed me some of her beautiful work from her brush and as I glanced about, everywhere, In every spot, there was a dainty vase with gorgeous rose, a regal dahlia or a cluster of chrysanthemums- kindred harmony of flowers and art.
 My sister, ' said Miss Fogarty as she smilingy indicated Miss Julia by merry twinkle of her eye, had loved her flow CTS so much and was always so success ful with them that one day l said to her. T believe that with my brush can paint as beautiful a flower as you ca nculttvate in your rose garden So soon afterwards I made my plans to pursue my art, al though you must know, of course, that I had been a dabbler-a diettante with my brush ever since I was a child
 But you mean at this time you began to really study?" I suggested
 "Yes, I went at once to the Chase school of art in New York, where took up my work in real earnest.
 '.And from there?' l questioned.
 "I went to, Paris, where was com- mended to the Parker school" said Miss Fogarty, "and I was gone for several

SCARCE FARM LABOR MAKING
FOOD DEAR.

According to James Wilson, the
veteran Secretary of Agriculture, the
troubles of the consumer are due
more to the scarcity of farm laborers
than to the iniquities ofithe corpora
tions. Mr.. Wilson recently returned
from Western trip more than ever
imprest by this explanation of the up
ward trend of prices in foodstuffs.
Thousands of fertile acres, he says,
are lying idle in the Far West because
their owners can not get hands" at
any wage. Our own country boys, he
finds, are drifting to the cities, and
immigrants seem to gravitate natural
ly toward the industrial centers rath-
er than to our agricultural regions.
Commenting upon the Sesretary's
theory, the Chicago Record-Herald
says: IL.
"Those who regard this theory as
inadequate and who think that mono
poly is not without considerable re-
sponsibility for the high prices OF
foodstuffs must admit that the search
ty of agricultural labor is fact, and
as such it at least partially accounts
for the phenomenon in question.
Hence it is highly desirable to con-
tinues and extend the work Of the
Federal information division Of the
Bureau Of Immigration, which has
sought to promote the better distri-
button of immigration and has taken
particular pains to direct the aliens
to the Western States or localities
where the shortage Of labor Is great
est. There has been opposition to
the activities Of this division, and
only the other day Secretary Nagel
turned down a recommendation for
its abolition. There is plenty Of
room for cooperation between the
Federal agency and State Bureaus Of
!. labor and immigration"

Nervous Children.

The naturally nervous child should
early be taught the value Of self
control. Instead of pampering and
making allowances, train the boy or
girl In self-repression. Discourage
emotionalism and never permit Civ.
ing way to fits of temper.
There is nothing for the naturally
nervous like plently Of fresh air, sun.
light and sleep. Without talking
health, keep sharp watch on the
child's habits, above all frown upon
rich foods and eating between meals.
Many so-called nervous temperaments
come from over-eating.
