To Prevent furnishing.


Tarnished effects in gold and sill
yer have been fashionable for the
past season-probably from necessi-
ty. If you prefer to have your me-
tallic trimmings look as if they had
not been gathered from junk heap,
what is to be done?
One girl has struck a plan for
which she vouches. Each time hat
or frock that has on it any gold or
silver trimming is put away the tar
nishable parts are carefully wrapped
in black tissue paper. Though the
garments have seen hard wear in all
kinds of weather, the trimmings are
still untarnished.
When a frock is put away for the
season the black paper should also be
used. If you cannot find black It's
sue paper, heavier grades will an

During the last thirty years the
demand for servants has doubled,
while the supply has increased only
by ha1f-in the last decade only
per cent. In 1870 there was one to
every twelve; even in the recent cri-
sis, when the cities were filled with
unemployed, the demand still outran
the supply. And yet, during the thir-
ty years past, the number of self-sup-
porting women-that is, the actual
labor market-has more than treb-
led. Forty years ago womn thrown
upon her own resources would tend
to select housework for a living, in
fact, one woman in two did so select.
Thirty years ago only every third
woman entered domestic service.
Ten years ago only one in four raped

My first tomato plants were set the
middle of April, and during the cool
weather, they have been a feast to
the cutworms. l caught over 100
about single row of tomatoes 100
feet long. The land where my gar
den is has long been a vacant lot,
growing up in weeds and grass, and
furnished splendid place for moths
to lay their eggs last fall. The ras-
calls are even eating my radishes. I
am now going to do what / should
have done at first: mix some Paris
green in moist bran, and lay it by the
plants as set. for | am still setting
tomato plants.

Auto sprayer for spraying my pota-
toes, etc. | find this a great deal
better than knapsack sprayer, for
spraying with the knapsack is very
hard work But with the Auto spray
er one simply pumps in a pressure
of air and takes the machine where
the spraying is to be done, and opens
a cock on the hose, and the pressure
does the spraying. For garden use
[ like it very much.
Last week We had a frost that
nipped the potato tops somewhat, but
strange to say, the cucumbers and
squashes were not hurt, and only a
few snap beans were injured.
My dahlias, grown from seed, have
been transplanted in rows in the gar
den, and [ shall expect fun in watch
ing them bloom and seeing what they
turn out, for the seed were from va
rious specialists who claim them to
be extra fine.
Then I have planted lot of Gamma
seed from famous collection of the
finest sorts. / filed each seed till the

Two objects will be kept in mind

bodies of the sailors who lost their
lives when the ship was blown up
and the second will be to ascertain
whether the vessel was blown up from

impression of the board is said to pc
that the best method of accomplish

pointed out how the memory Of her
soldiers had saved the country.
"The lofty figure of Queen Louise

them in defense of the country.

LESSON TAUGHT
BY THE CENSUS
RETURNS SHOW THAT RACE SUI
eide SPECTRE Is STALK.
ING THROUGH THE LAND.
Signs Point to a Dropping Away of
Fifty Percent in Internal Increase
Of Our Population from
Former Records.

Misunderstanding conclusions
spring from an examination of the re-
turns of the census of 1910, as far as
the returns have come in, when com
pared with statistics of national
growth in former decades. The COM
ing race suicide casts it's shadow be-
fore, for the natural increase of the
native-born American is falling off to
an alarming extent and another de
cade, at this rate, would put us In
the class with France, whose decreas-
ing population has been the burning
question with the government there.
In spite of all our natural resources
and all the national and state aid to
encourage an increase keeping step
with former years, the signs point to
dropping away Of so per cent in in
ternal increase of population from the
records of former decades.
The returns will show that the rural
population is positively decreasing,
and that the cities are absorbing a
greater portion of the newcomers.

Growth ls In Small cities.

Washington.-Careful, though unof-
fcial analysis of the returns from the
thirteenth census on cities thus far
announced, reveals that the increased
rate of urban growth for the last dec
ade over that of 1890 to 1900 has been
confined largely to places having a
population of less than $4,000. While
universally there has been healthy
increase in large majority of cities
exceeding $4,000, the rate of the pre-
.ious decade has not been maintained
In no instance so far has an actual
loss OF population been shown and
present comparisons are only on the
rate of growth.
