EVENING


Drive your daughters out of doors -
young girls in high school,
1 think the way in which many girls
study and grind and toll over their
lessons in high school is absolutely
absurd. 1t is not so bad in college, for
the period of rapid growth and devel-
| opment is practically past when a girl
enters college.
But for mother to allow a little
high school girl to spend her after
Moons and maybe large part of her
evenings bending over her books, is
little short of crime.
Perhaps your daughter wants to
bring home fine report card Then
tell her that if she can do it without
undue effort you will be glad, but that
if she cannot, you prefer rosy cheeks
to AS. and bright eyes to honors.
or course, there are plenty of ambi
tionless girls who do not in the least
need to be restrained and some bril-
liant girls who can win the honOrS
without paying too highly for them;
but ] am not speaking of such cases.
In an academy near where l live.
the girl who won the valedictory and
the girl who won the SalutatOry last
spring both broke down before the
term was ended, and were unable to
deliver their commencement parts.
Isn't that a tremendous object les

1t is known beyond doubt that the

tuberculosis In Hogs

Reports gathered from the various
eat-packng cent rs of this country
show tuberculosis Of hogs to be on the
increase and causing heavier loss to
raiser and packer alike than any other
disease
Statistics show that a year ago there
were over 56.0O00O0 hogs in this
country and their value at that time
was over $S39OO0O00 Federal in
spection at the abattoirs of the coun-
try show two per cent of the hogs
slaughtered TO be affected with tuber-
cuiosis. 5ports from Europe show a
far more widespread infection that
rams as high as SO to 81 per cent.
The small amount of money requir-
ed TO start in the hog raising bust
ness and the quick returns on the
amoant invested make it an attractive
tiela for operations. Hogs will make
greater gains on less feed than almost
any other live stock and at the same
time utilize profitably waste food pro-
ducts Of every variety if properly pre-
pared. AS tuberculosis of hogs is
chiefly contracted through feeding, the
significance of the latter feature is
obvious
Hogs from the northwest Arkansas,
Oklahoma and Texas are remarkably
free from tuberculosis, due to the
methods Of caring for them. or rather
the lack of care

Exchange

1t has always been the custom OF
gloves to rip at the seams and tear a:
the clasps before they can be really
said to be wearing out, and the man.
ner of putting on glove generally has
something to do with its life of useful
ness. A curling iron should be used to
adequately stretch tight fitting kid of
suede before the attempt is made to put
it on the hand.
Loosely fitting gloves. selected indis-
criminately, wear out more easily, or
at least look more unwearabie, than the
close fitting ones And again, many
women purchase gloves that will not fit
their short fingers, the kid wrinkling
on the fingers for almost half an inch.
Great care should be taken in their Sc
lection. wrinkled gloves do not give
neatness of appearance and are an
evesore to the wearer. The way to
remedy this is to have the measure
ment taken by an experienced sales
man and have them fitted properly. On
the other hand, the clOse-fitting glove
must be a sucject of especial care,
and a single stitch in time will prob
ably save it. If they start to rip at
the seams, they are soon in a gaping
condition and almost useless AS glove
seams are invariably seWed with an
external buttonhole stitch, they should
lac mended with the same stitch and a
corresponding quality of thread or silk.
When the mending is done it is best to
strip the glove from the hand and while
wearing the right hand glove allow
someone to ply the needle for you. In
this manner with the glove stretched
snugly on the hand the uneven draw
ing or ruffling of the kid is impossible.
If the glove should split in the palm
of the hand it should not be sewed, but
an angle of kid should be inserted from
some other glove. Fold the ends of the
rent above the patch about One-SiX-
teenth of an inch and sew down close
to the edge at least twice with the ma
terial When the thumb and forefin-
ger wear out ahead of the other parts
of the glove one may prolong its use
by cutting out the worn portion, turn
ing the finger inside out and setting a
small piece of kid against the gap with
some liquid glue. Old and worn gloves
are worn by many housekeepers as
protection to their hands in their house
