LUCKY SWISS HOUSEWIFE.
She Lets the Rain Do All the Family
Washing For Her.

Swiss methods of laundering are orig
inal, practical and labor saving. The
women there have learned we'll how to
make the best use of their opportuni-
ties with the least eXertion. How they
use the tourists every one who has
travelled in the country of the Alps
knows. They also know how to make
nature do their housework
In most of the towns everything that
is washed or cleaned is washed or
cleaned in one of the big watering
troughs that stand at regular intervals
along the main thoroughfares. Into it
goes everything from potatoes to hu-
man beings, and the only sanitary
regulation existent is that it must be
cleaned out with large broom made
of bush or twigs after the potatoes
have had their bath. But when it
rains then everything else gives way
to the family wash no matter if it is
Thursday or Sunday or Saturday or
Wednesday, for in Switzerland they
seek the rainy days for wash days, in
stead of deplOring cloudy Monday.
The steady downpour provides run
ming water in the village washtub
Into the sweeping current the family
linen goes, and there it is whirled and
twirled about until every speck of dirt
is thoroughly rinsed away. The scrub
bing board is not put into commission
at all. Occasionally the good housewife,
protected under the family umbrella
held over her head by one of her
youngsters, who is allowed to enjoy
the drips from that same umbrella,
takes look at her wash and encour-
ages it with gentle poke with her
husbands best cane. But the rest of
the day she enjoys to the full in her
snug chalet, while the elements do her
work. In fact, with her conscience at
rest that her days tasks will be done,
she can spend her time gossiping with
her neighbor whose conscience is also
at peace.
On the next day the wash goes
through a process of bluing and starch
ing-all in that same basin-and fin
ally, when the sun shines, it Is laid
out on the wonderful green grass of
the Swiss matten and is there bleach
ed to a snowy whiteness. If the gla-
ciers and the lhndslides were to ac-
commodate hsr by rolling down over
her wash and ironing it out without
soiling the Swiss housewife would not
be at all surprised. In fact, it is not
to be doubted that she now regards as
an oversight the failure of Dame Ma
ture to provide an ironing board.-New
York Post

a Merry Christmas Jest.

An old chronicle contains the follow
ing qunintly wordcd anecdote
There WAS some time I'M old knight
who. being disposed to make himself
merry In Christmas time. sent for
many of his tenants and poor neigh.
bors with their wives to dinner. when
having made meat to be set on the
table would suffer no man to drinke
till he that was master over his wife
should sing a carroll; great niceness
there was who should be the musician.
Yet with much adoe. looking one upon
another, after n dry hemme or two. a
dreaming companion drew out as
much as he dare toward an old fash
ioned ditty. When having made an
end, to the great comfort of the be-
holders. at last II came to the women's
table. when likewise commandment
was given thal there should no drinke
be touched till she that was master
over her husband had sung Christ.
mas caroll whereupon they fell all Ia
such singing that there was never
heard such catterwaling peece OF
musicke. Whereat the knight laughed
heartily. that II did him halle as
muche good as corner of his Christ

Christmas Superstitions.

There are many Christmas supersti-
tions, long held as articles of faith.
that are to be recalled. Among these
are the beliefs that oxen kneel In their
stalls at midnight on Christmas eve
In alteration Of the Nativity and for
one hour have the power of speech.
For that one hour, too. the lost spirits
have rest. Judas sleeps, Herod ceases
to clank his chains. the daughter Of
Herodias may pause in the dance, in
which she is condemned to spin for
ever. and Pilates ghost ceases its
wanderings on Mount Pilatus, 1t used
to be believed, too, that the sound OF
church bells could be heard wherever
church had stood, though no trace
remain, and that on that pregnant
night one sleeping In manger would
see his future In vision.

The lad grew pale and stammered:

"That's all very well, but you'll have
to give up your job here"
The youth humbly protested, when
Mr.. Stewart burst out laughing and
said: Don't say any more, my boy.

public offices in Cincinnati the other

One of the clerks remarked about
the shoes, and the German said:
II comes pretty near selling desc

visited an insane asylum in order to
learn the signs of insanity. Cora was

day she saw in street car a woman
who had exactly that kind of disfigure-
ment She studied 1t and reproduced
1t, but her kindness of heart shrank
from reproducing it In such fashion
that the sufferer might recognize it IL
she ever saw the play. So she work

terations to feel certain that no one,
not even the owner of the original
scar, could ever suspect the imitation
When she was studying the part Of
Miss Moulton, who was to die of heart
disease, she visited specialist who
had a number Of patients suffering
from that trouble. He showed her
one of his patients and then, to her
surprise and horror, ran the sufferer
up fight of stairs that Miss Morris
might see the symptoms as produced
after an excitement of the heart. Miss
Morris was filled with pain and pity.
She made the poor patient present

The woman accepted it and then as
she was stuffing 1t into her glove

STRETCH YOUR LEGS.

Jack Eredge 26-yearold youth of Boston, has just

days One day he covered IS miles
Edward Payson Weston recently made similar trip in
105 days.
If that doesn't make you feel, bright morning or
cool evening, that YOU could walk, five ten, or twenty
miles Yourself
If it doesn't make YOU realize that God made the green
earth the beautiful byways, the fields the trees the flow
ers, the brds-and feeand that made streets and
hard roads, and bicycles and autocyces and automobiles
not such great improvement on them after all
That walking is not only the most heathful exercise,
but that it's respectable and fashionable as we'll
If it doesn't make YOU ride to the city limits, alone,
with your wife husband friend, to stretch your legs
the cods of the byways and the green grass of the
fields woods
If it doesn make YOU fill your lungs with the only air
that God made, the country air, and send your blood
bounding through your veins
If it doesn't nike YOU feel like organizing your list of
friends into walking club
Then Weston and Elredge have walked in vain. Then
they only did vaudeville stunt.
But think you'll prove they preached sermon by
following their example.
