the wholesale price is higher now
than 1t was a year or two ago. Thai
being the case, the dealers must have
been making big money a year OF
two ago.
Mr.. Christensen admitted that sell.
ing a commodity at retail at an ad-
vance of 100 per cent. over the
wholesale price is pretty good bust
ness. He answered it by asking for
any evidence among the milk deal
ers to show that any of them are
getting rich at the present price.

THE PRICE OF MILK.

In a letter published on another
page today. C. M. Christensen, a To-
cal milk dealer. replies to the com
ments in this newspaper a few days
ago, on the price OF milk.
Mr.. Christensen tells US if we want
something sensational. to do it along
some other line and leave his bush
ness alone. 1t is the same story the
country over. None of them want
publicity when they are raising
prices ana forming combinations,
All they want is to be let alone. He
further says that competition will
soc right the prices. But when all
the dealers get together and raise
the price of their commodity, we fail
to see where competition m in.
But while Mr.. Christensen says
the farmer whose letter we published
with our previous comments. does
not state the truth, he refuses to
give any hgures to prove that the
farmer is mistaken. In fact. when
Mr.. Christensen vas asked whether
or not he was paying more for his
milk now than he did before he
raised the price. he refused to say,
declaring that it vas nobody's BUSH
ness. But it is eyerybody's business
when the price Of milk is raised. All

Duties of q Hostess.

In asking a friend to visit her the
hostess should always state clearly
how long the guest Is expected to stay.
This makes it much simpler and more
comfortable for all persons concerned.
The guest to be knows just what lug
gage to bring and how to ma1te~h her
plans accordingly. AT the end Of the
visit 1t Is simple for the hostess, If she
wishes, to ask her friend to prolong
her stay.
Awell bred hostess never shows that
her guests visit is a burden to her.
She keeps her household duties in the
background as much as possible, new
err consults her servants before her
guests and never embarrasses her by
discussions of household finances. She
makes her feel at every moment that
she is a welcome addition to the house
hold and that her presence is a real
pleasure. On the other hand, she is not
too attentive, leaves her friend to her
self for an hour or two and gives her
an opportunity to rest or read. She
neve obtrudes family troubles on her,
never corrects the servants in her pres
ence OF permits family differences,
which often amount to quarrels unim-
portant perhaps to the persons con
cerned, but exceedingly uncomfortable
for the visitor.
A good hostess is careful to make
her guest comfortable. The guest
chamber in many homes is a special
apartment, furnished with the best and
choicest belongings of the family, but
If the guest finds a vase Of flowers and
books and magazines on the table, she
feels somehow that she Is really most
welcome In the household. .

Good
fOrT1l

Every ho~usekeeper should realize
that the appearance Of the maids IN
her house Is an indication Of her good
taste and management. They, In a
measure, set the standard of your es-
Enlistment from the moment the
front door is opened. 1t need not be O
matter of expense 20 have them neatly
and properly dressed; 1t is largely a
matter Of Judgment on your part In
providing the correct things to wear
on different occasions and Of your
carefulness In seeing hat everything
is neat and clean.
For the morning a neat percale
dress of pale pink or blue always
looks well, or one of a gray blue and
white, stripe. With this dress is worn
a plain white apron. usually without
a bib or bretelles, a white linen collar
and a three cornered swiss muslin cap
with a ruching around it. Before
luncheon the waitress or parlormaid
should change this dress for a simply
made black one or one made Of a
pretty shade Of gray. These are, Of
course, made of some wooden material.
Gray dresses are an innovation and
are not so seryiceable as the black.
With this dress is worn a plain white
linen collar and turnover stiff linen
cuffs. The apron should be quite small
and made Of thin lawn, batiste, swiss
or muslin or fine linen with a frill or
embroidered scallop around the edge.
Instead of a cap the maid may wear a
bow of fine muslin or a plated small
frill on which Is sewed a black ribbon
or black velvet bow.

TALKING PERTH AMBOY.

With a special trolley car and a
drum corps the EVENING NEWS
sent It's Get Acquainted" edition
through all the towns on the south
shore yesterday, from sothu Am
boy to Atlantic Highlands. The
south shore towns are comparatively
strangers to Perth Amboy. Although
so near, yet they have been a long
distance away, as far as easy access
and travel is concerned. When the
Central Jersey Traction Company
finally overcame the obstacles and
began the actual work of connecting
the south shore with this city by
trolley, the EVENING NEWS was
quick to realize what 1t meant to
Perth Amboy, as well as to all the
towns along the line of the trolley
road.
The first thing the EVENING
NEWS did was to send to
Keyport and Matawan. This vas
early in the spring. AS a result of
that canvass the NEWS built up a
regular route in both of those towns
where about 800 papers have since
been sold every night. All this
time these people have been getting
acquainted with Perth Amboy and
her attractive stores.
But the NEWS was not satisfied
with this. Arrangements were ac-
cordingly made with the Jersey
Central Traction Company for a
special car to run across the bridge
and down into Monmouth county
as soon as the road was opened. The
matter was laid before the merchants
and they liked the idea. They set
forth special inducements for the
people of the south shore to visit
Perth Amboy.
There were thirty-six pages to the
EVENING NEWS yesterday, all
filed with advertisements and in
teresting reading matter concerning
Perth Amboy, the towns along the
south shore and the Jersey Central
Traction Company. Ten thousand
copies of this special Get Acquaint-
ed edition were printed and circu-
lated. An effort was made to put
O copy in every house in South AM
boy, Keyport, Matawan, K~eansburg,
Bedford, Port Monmouth, Hazlet, At
lantie Highlands and the smaller
places in between.
Besides this, 400 copies were
placed In the EVENING NEWS auto
mobile and a 0 u was made OF all
that section through Middietown and
across to the Highlands, leaving a
copy of the EVENING NEWS in
every farm house along the road.
We doubt if eyer a newspaper was
more thoroughly circulated,
The EVENING NEWS was talking
Perth Amboy yesterday.
