WhistIer's Friendships.

That Whistler the man of famous
enemies, had faithful friends, is re-
called by Ford MADDOX Hueffer, writ

circular printed drawing the attention
Of all his old patrons to the merits Of
Whistler's etchings, and begging
them in the most urgent terms to
make purchases because Whistler
was in INDECENT circumstances. The
story is that upon one occasion
MADDOX Brown. going to a tea-party
at the Whistlers' in Chelsea, was met
in the hall by Mrs. Whistler, who beg
ged him to 60 to the poulterer's and
purchase a pound Of butter. The

TURKEY NOTES.
The surest and quickest way to get
flock of good turkeys is to discard
all the mongrels and purchase trio
of pure-bred turkeys of the best blood
you can afford. But however well
bred your females may be, you will
be required to purchase a tom every
year to prevent inbreeding. Turkeys
are more susceptible to the harmful
results of inbreeding than any other
class of fowls. This works disaster
to a flock Inbred turkeys will be
apt to produce infertile eggs. But
where a pure-bred tom is purchased
every year your birds will be strong
and healthy and the eggs fertile and
the poults vigorous.
Many raisers Of turkeys make a
mistake in using toms of too great
size for the hens When you have
pullets weighing from fifteen to eigh-
teen pounds and mate them with ii
tom weighing from thirty to forty
pounds. the mating will not prove sat-
isfactory. If you want to increase
the weight Of the individuals that
are marketed it can We done through
the females as we'll as by having a
large male. Yet there is not great
demand today for la1ge turkeys. A
medium-sized turkey sells better to
the private trade. No one wants |

NOTES ON POULTRY.

There are some things that can be
better attended to in the fall Of the
year than at any other season, and
there are also some things that should
be attended to at that time that too
often owing to the press OF other
work We find neglected.
In the first place see that the roost-
ing places are clean. | have seen a
place that no self-respectins fowl
would enter during the warm wealth
er. but which they are forced TO use
when it got cold, and the owner Of
that house wondered why his hens did
not lay
Another thing see that it IS warm
Frozen combs do not go hand IN
hand with a full egg basket by any
means and yet | have often seen sucn
things and SO no doubt have YOU all.
] remember once in particular fine
flock Of Leghorns had their combs
frozen and the result was no more
eggs that winter and yet the owner
insisted that the Leghorns were no
good as egg producers. | am Of the
opinion he will never find any chick
ems that are under such conditions.
The fall is the time to thin out
the flock Discard all that are not
up to standard. 1t will not pay to
keep a lot of worthless fowls through
the winter and now is a good time
to dispose Of the overplus at a good
price. Better have smaller flock
and have them good than a large
flock composed of culls. There will
be more money in it to say nothing OF
the satisfaction
If there is surplus of any vege-
tables around the farm be sure and
not forget the chickens. Turnips,
beets. cabbage, even potatoes are
greatly relished by the chicks during
the cold weather when thev cannot
get green feed and they viii! repay
you for the extra trouble in a very
substantial way.
OF course the spring is really the
time to make preparations for this
kind of food but if you neglected it
last spring then do the best you can
to make up for it now by not allow
ing ANYTHING to go to waste that may
be utilized.
See that there is plenty of grit
provided before the ground freezes
and it cannot be obtained. Grit is
one thing that fowls must have in
order to be healthy.
Don't forget their water when it
gets cold, and warm it for them. Re-
member how you like a good hot cup
of coffee on chilly morning and do
not offer your chickens water that is
ice cold and expect them to relish it.
They will drink it to be sure if they
can set no other but just try the
warm water and see if they don't ap.
preciate it.
Poultry is much like anything else
Eternal vigilance is the price We must
pay II we court success. Neglect will
not bring in the dollars any quicker

A WHITE SERGE SUIT.

OF course, it is perishable, but that
does not preclude the possibility OF
it's adaptation, for white serge is the
sturdy material that can Withstand
admirably the wear of visit to the
cleaners. There is a certain niche
that the white serge suit fllls and
wise is she who can plan to add one
to the wardrobe of the coming sea-
son.
In the first place, do not make the
mistake of selecting skirt too heav-
ily pleated, for the weight will be
unbearable, but choose rather the pat
tern which has the straight panel at
the front and the introduction Of
pleats at the side.
On the jacket, which, to be strict
ly up to date, must be hip length, the
suggestion Of black is always excel
lent. A narrow band of silk is ef-
fective when outlining the cuffs or

the use of heavy silk braid and cord

CAPON's.

In preparing capons for market the
birds should go without food for
twelve hours before they are killed.
This will insure that the birds will
be perfectly empty and in best condi-
tion for dressing. The fowls should
be suspended by the feet in a place
where everything is handy, best over
an old box which can be used to catch
the blood and feathers, and weight
Of two or three pounds should be sus-
pended on string to hook which Is
placed in the lower jaw of the bird
after It has been killed. The weight
assists in keeping the bird still and
in stretching it out so that it can be
picked easier.
Capons are killed according to what
is called the French method. There
is a knife made especially for the
work, called the French killing-knife,
but any sharp. thin knife will do the
'vork. Seize the head of the fowl, open
it's mouth and running the knife
through the roof Of the mouth into
cut the veins and arteries, the jugu-
lars and carotids; then run the knife
through the roof Of the mouth into
the brain.
Capons are always picked dry, and

looking for capons will be attracted by
them at his first glance around the
market: that is they are picked only

capons, and the head always. as It Is

WHIFFS THAT CHEER.

/ ,4'he girl typists and stenOgraphers
OF London don't think it at all Wrons
+ for business girl to take the relaXa
+ tion Of a cigarette or two after the
! days work is done. In fact, they con
! slider it restful and soothing. Such
at least, was the radical sentiment
expressed at recent meeting OF the
English Association of Shorthand
! Writers and Typists, held at Alan
Tea Room, oxford street, London.
The topic down for discussion was
".The office woman's meals but this
/ train Of thought took on much new
freight at the functions. Miss Mary
Phillips, the first speaker, laid down
series of luncheon maXims for the
workers. Among other things. she
told them never to drink tea in the
middle of the day
ut is bad for the Digestion she
said, "and has very upsetting effect
on the work Of the afternoon, Do
without tea at luncheon, and then
your afternoon tea in the Office at 4
o'clock will be a real treat. You'll
enjoy it as you could not possibly II
you had taken it at luncheon"
Miss Phillips said Office women
were sometimes accused of having un-
consciously acquired mems habits
through their business association
with men, but one good masculine
habit too many had failed to assume
was that of eating substantial lunch
cons.
Eat chops, steaks and wholesome
vegetables if you can." she advised.
Cor if you don't care for meat, then
nourishing and economical dishes for
luncheons are soft boiled eggs. bread
and butter and milk, or baked beans
and tomato sauce or macaroni and
cheese, nuts and salads and fruits"
Miss Emma Fitzgerald advocated
good solid breakfast for every girl
typist who had or could cultivate the
appetite for it. Then she delivered
an admonition which brought out wild
applause.
Never" she said, make beds or
wash dishes or do anything of that
sort bafore starting out in the morn
ing, unless you simply have to. 1t
takes your energy, it spoils you for
the office routine of the day. Men
don't draw on their energy by that
sort of pottering, and if you do it
you'll fall behind in the business
race" All the members of the associ-
alton agreed that relaxation was i'm
perative for a girl typist after the
strain and drudgery of the day.
"Do what you feel like doing" said
one girl, whether it's going to the
theatre or reading an interesting book
and smoking a cigarette in your
room" And the other girls clapped.
Miss Gordon Holmes said she was
glad to perceive that Office women
were getting to disregard the old doc
trine of self-sacrifice that had always
been preached to women.

A WIFEHOOD GUILD.

Believing that fully 80 per cent of
unhappy marriages among young
people of the working class are due to
the wife's ignorance of the simplest
duties of domestic life" philanthropic
women of New York City and Pitts
burg are organizing a Wifehood Guild,
in which, just as business is taught
in the Pratt Institute, instruction in
the duties of the household will be
given for a nominal fee.
In suburban home the guild will
teach cooking, housekeeping and
nursing to school of 100 young
working girls, who will live in the
institution during the six months
course. The fee, according to the
American Educational Review, will
merely cover expenses Women doc
tors will lecture on physiology and
medicine, so that the students may
have some knowledge of the cares of
motherhood.

DAINTY CLOTH AMONG SPOILS OF
VISIT

One ardent wish Of Mrs. Roosevelt
will be gratifled when she sets foot
on Porto Rican soil. In the early
days of the Roosevelt regime she re-
ceived a gift of exquisite table linen,
the handiwork OF San Juan girls. The
gift was appreciated deeply and Mrs
Roosevelt decided to visit the island,
inspect the work personally and select
her own patterns. Not only table
linen, but filmy cloth for evening
wear will form one of the spoils of
her visit. She wore at many after
noon musicales and teas a pale yell
low cloth, on which was embroidered
a slender vine of clematis. The gown
was built on yellow moire and had
trimming OF yellow lace. Mrs. Roose-
welt doubtless will find many patterns
equally dainty for service next sea-
son.-New York Press.
THE NEWEST SLEEVES.
Sleeves are charming; they are
three-quarter length or shorter; they
are small, but the long, straight
sleeve of tulle that was worn by SO
many people who could not stand it
taught us many wise lessons. For
instance, If women has small shoul-
ders, her sleeve may be slightly
puffed into the armhole.
There is, nowadays, nearly always
an oversleeve and an undersleeve;
sometimes when there is chiffon
covering there are three actual
sleeves, each passing a little the 9TH
er. In evening gowns the simple cap
sleeve that is so very becoming is
most prevalent, but there are also
many and various sorts of short
pufed sleeves.-Harper's Bazaar.
Says the Boston Herald: It must
be recognized that the concessions
made are comparatively unimportant.
What is important is that a basis Of
direct negotiation of tariff differences
has been reached, and that way has
been opened for further bargaining to
the mutual advantage of the nations.
An important step toward reciprocal
trade relations has been taken.
