Fine French Laundry Work Is Neu
LucratiOe Occupation for Women

any well-to-do community give a
woman enough to do to insure a good
income throughout the year.
Work Is Not Heavy.
The work is not heavy; as matter
of fact, the woman who does fine
French laundry work employs so few
of the tools >of the ordinary laundress
that she might be considered as do
ing an altogether different work.
The washboard, tub and wringer.
even the washing powders, are not
brought into use by her. and while it is
true she puts each dainty garment
through q process of washing. rinsing.
wringing, she employs a much gentler
method than the average laundress
With bowls of warm suds lather, and
bowls for bluing, rinsing and starch
ing. she gently rubs, rinses, bleaches
and dries, not only with an exact
knowledge of the needs of each gar
ment, but with the exquisite care re-
quired to get results with the least pos
sible wear and tear of material.
There is really a fine knowledge and
skill in the right use of methods of
various cleaning processes and the
special virtue of each as adapted to the
article under consideration, and 1t is
only the woman who thoroughly under
stands these methods who can retain
her patronage and get tn best prices
She is paid for her skill and knowl-
edge, and in exact proportion to the
care with which she applies 1t to her
work.

At last the conviction was forced
upon her that Philip was actually on
the road to recovery. His delirium be-
came less violent and occurred at
longer intervals The frightful con-
dition of his wounds began vislbly to
improve. Instinctively she resisted this
connection as long as she could, refus-
ing almost passionately to begin to hope
for the return of hope brought an al
most intolerable pain with it. Without
hope there had been no fear, no appre-
hension-just as in a frozen limb there
Is no pain. But, as the possibility of
his recovery became palmer the slen-
derness of the thread by which his life
was hanging became palmer, too. A
thousand chances which she could not
guard against might cut the thread and
destroy the hope newborn.
The greatest and most terrible of
these was the caprice of nature itself.
Until Philip should grow strong enough
to struggle, with her help, up that end
less ice-chimney to the pilot house,
they must live utterly at the mercy of
the weather. The rude shelter which
she had coptrived for him would not
avail ten hours against one of the ter
rife Arctic storms which might be ex-
pected at any time. But the vast
black sky stayed clear and the stars
twinkled through it, kindly. Their
friendly light did not. as she expected,
turn to mockery. And Philip steadily
grew stronger and her daily prayer for
another days grace was daily granted.
He was able, at last, after a long
sleep and a really hearty meal of sus-
tanning food--which she hardly dared
give him-to get up and walk out of
their shelter to the star-vaulted beach
Fifty PAGES or so was all he was equal
to; but at the end of the little prome-
made he expressed a disinclination to go
back to the stuffy little shed which
had been the scene of his long ILL
ness. The clean, wide, boundless
air. was bringing back the zest

A Boy and His School.
Dear Miss Doom

Dear MISS Doon.
My boy, who is IA, is going to enter
high school, and l want to send him
to the best school. 1 heard that the
Newark school was better than the
Harrison school. Kindly advise me where
to send him, as I would not like him
to waste four years. MRS. D,
/ think you have been misinformed.
Would advise you to call on the prin-
cipal of the Harrison school and ask
him to- give you an idea of what the
four-year course of study contains and
what books and methods of instructing
are used. You would have to pay to
send him to the Newark school, as
Newark and Harrison are in different
counties.

Dear Miss Doom:
viii you please let me know what

What would be a proper gift for the
bridesmaid to give the bride? Thank
ing you, GRACE.
You might wear a lingerie gown
over pale yellow or pink silk, according
to your coloring. or you could have ID
dress of mousseline, silk null or crepe
de chine, according to your tastes and
purse. Any light, dainty dress would
be appropriate.

Affords Excellent Means of
Earning Livelihood Without
Drudgery at Washtub.

For instance, an expensive garment
may be intrusted to her that is more
or less worn. 1t may be garment that
cannot be laundered in the usual way
without danger of destroying portions
of the fabric.
Repairs Fabrics as Well.
As an expert she knows only of
delicate processes of dry cleaning ma
terial in this condition. but she will
take steps to strengthen the thin places,
or darn broken threads of the fabric of
these partly worn garments if she does
put them through the usual methods of
washing, says the writer in the Phila-
delphia Press.
AS matter of fact this is an i'm
portant part of the work of an expert
laundress, and in every case where 1t
is needed, her needle is brought into
use before she resorts to any other
means of restoring a garment.
When a scallop, or the outer edge of
a piece of lace, is broken or frayed, she
runs double thread along the curve to
Keep it in shape, and goes over the
worn edges with a buttonhole stitch,
and with suitable thread neatly imi-
tates the original scallop.
One broken thread in a piece of lace
may become a visible rent during the
process of laundering, and thin, worn
place may become an irreparable dam
age to the beauty of garment
Lace trimmed garments always re-
quire special care, not only in wash
ing but in drying and ironing The
expert laundress never wrings lace, be-
cause she knows to do this is to drag
the mesh away, sometimes beyond the
possibility of smoothing back into place
again. And when lace-trimmed gar
ments are starched they are neither
wrung nor allowed to become complete
" dry without stretching and shaping
during the drying process.

The frock that is made with bloomers
to match is a practical as well as fash
nionable one. 1t does away with the
necessity for petticoats and it means
freedom and comfort for the child her
self. This one can be made as illus
trated with high neck and long sleeves,
and blue and white checked ginghau
with bands of embroidery are the ma
terials shown; but such frocks are
made from al the simpler washable
fabrics, linen Is much liked and cham
brays, percales and ginghams are all in
vogue. Natural linen with bands of
color make a pretty combination
and one that is exceedingly smart. For
the cooler days of the coming season
the high neck and long sleeves will be
desirable and the, dress made from
linehe will be found seasonable. Inex-
pensive wash fabrics are many and at
tractve. Among them can be found q
generous number suited to such a frock.

Producers and Consumers Exchange
In Maine-Insurance In Kansas.
A producers and consumers ex-
change has been recently formed in
Brunswick, Me-, among the grangers
for the benefit of farmers in market
ing crops and buying supplies. The
above name was chosen as the official
name Of the company. 1t was decided
to fix the capital at $4,000, divided
into 10000 shares at 81 each, as orig
inally suggested. 1t was thought that
this would be better than to raise the
price. 1t was also voted that the
stockholders or members Of the COM
pany should be confined to members
Of the Patrons Of Husbandry, except
ing those who had already subscribed
for stock or did so before Nov. 10 last.
Bylaws were adopted which fully
protect the stockholders. The follow
ing were elected directors. Mande-

Great Interest Shown In the Literary
Work of the Grange by the Fact
That Over $1,000 Members Took Part
In the Discussions the Past Year.
Over Forty Oranges Held Grange
Fairs.
The Massachusetts state grange held
its annual session at Springfield, Mass,
with a large attendance. State Master
Richardson in his annual address urg-
ed, among other things, a more rigid
enforcement of the seed and feed in
spection law. In the matter of i'm
proving the highways he believed that
the cost of maintenance should be
equalized in proportion to the number
Of inhabitants served. He emphasized
the Importance of farmers cooperating
in fighting insect pests. He looked
upon the apathy Of many as most Sc
rious. State Lecturer G. M. Gardner
said that during the twelve months
ended Oct. 1, 1909, 1854 discussions
were held and participated in by 17,402
Patrons, 1,647 papers had been read
and discussed by owe $500 members,
1856 speakers had addressed oranges
on different topics, as entertainment
features nearly $500 vocal and nearly
5000 instrumental selections had been
rendered and readings to the number
of GILT. The total attendance on sub
ordinate grange meetings during the
year was 270,265. In 100 oranges some
phase of town improvement had been
considered, and POI had devoted an
evening to patriotic themes, and the
children had been remembered in 1914
grange evenings all their OWL Over
forty oranges had held fairs Of their
own, and sixty-five have assisted in ag-
ncultural fairs in their vicinity. The
secretary reported the total number Of
oranges in the state at 232 and the to-
tai membership 26,782, a net gain Of
nearly 1900.
The secretary of the Mutual Fire In
surance company, in which the grange
is interested, reported 3,0S5 policies
in force, carrying $~3,046,410 in risks.
The Patrons Cooperative association
organized a year ago, did a business
Of over $150,O0O and shows a saving
to Patrons Of $4,000 On $4,000 tons of
agricultural chemicals, 10000 tons Of
grain and feed, 1000 barrels of flour
and other things used on the farm.
The stock is held by 514 people.
Worthy Lecturer Charles M. Gardner
was elected to the Office Of master.
The lecturers conference was attend
ed by 242 lecturers. The question of
a%bolishing the milk standard set by
law was up before the grange, and it
was recommended to the legislature
that the present standard be abol-
ished. F. W. Rane, state forester, said
that the state had lost $4,000 by for
est fires, a large number of which
could have been prevented had there
been proper fire apparatus. He sug-
gested that the legislature appropriate
a sufficient amount for the purchase
Of fire equipment. Two hundred and
ninety-six candidates took the sixth
degree. Worcester, Mass, will be the
place of meeting for 1910.

There is at present a convention at
Washington urging the passage of a
uniform motor vehicle bill by Congress,
tile result of which, if passed, will be to
enable these vehicles to go flom state
to state and through the states without
securing a special license from each
state in passage. In other words, it
means free trade and travel as far as
motor vehicles are concerned, through
out the United States. The great
number of persons now using automo.
biles. and the greater number that will
use them Ill the future, makes such a
