But fond as is the working girl of the summer
resort the working girls mother is still fonder OF
it-not for herself, but for her daughter. Many a
mother who is deliberate and cautious with every
cent that she spends will willingly part with $50
which she has saved with difficulty in order to send
her daughter for two weeks vacation to summer
resort. It is not pride, either that makes her
do it, but prudence. More than one mother could
scarcely recognize her daughter when she came back
from such two weeks outing. The girl who had
hitherto lacked all interest in life suddenly aroused
herself Meeting other people she discovered her own
qualities.

From the standpoint of an old-fash-

of today have grown little away from the
simplicity of the styles of 50 years ago.

knew their mission had to do only with re-

autumn when the tide is coming in

wolves and pillagers Of the sea, and
see for ones self how easily they hunt

prey. Not by any means DO they nab
the first too large or too little fish,
but wait and pick out the very fellow

water is boiling and that the gas may

England and is meeting with favor.
The kettle has no lid through which
the scalding steam may issue. but is
filled and emptied through the spout,
which is sufficiently large The abb
sence of the lid not only prevents
scalding but keeps any of the steam
from escaping, which means that the
water will reach a boiling point much
more quickly than i'll the ordinary

contains the whistle, and this is the

Mary Women Farmers.

Almost a million women in the
United States are either farmers or
farm laborers. Thanks to the popular
ity Of the homestead in the west and
to a belated appreciation of agricul-
ture as a field for woman's industry
this number is rapidly increasing. The
United States, however, has not gone
so far in this respect as England.
There, in the dairy sections, women
have entire control of the herds, not
only the butter making, but the milk
ing and feeding. In France nearly
100000 women are engaged in farm
work, while in most of the countries
of continental Europe the finer
breeds of cattle are mainly the result
of woman's efforts-New Idea Wom

Dolls, Houz. MANY Years. Old.

There are a, least two famous dolls
houses in E,.gland; one is at Nostell
priory, the Yorkshire home of Lord
and Lady ST. Oswald. This dolls
house dates from 1890 and it contains
some exquisite Chippendale furniture
made n miniature. The dolls which
inhat. it are dressed in gorgeous old
brocades and the dinner service off
which they eat is of silver. The other
dolls house is in a house near Peters
field and if not quite so valuable is
nevertheless very beautiful and a
much cherished possession. A curl
Gus fact in connection with the lovely
Chippendale furniture, some of the
finest specimens known at Nostell
priory, is that ,he receipted bills for
it are also preserved there, conclusive
ly proving that it is genuine.

The game of nine pins seems to

however, usually played in America
with ten pins arranged in the form OF
a triangle, and the missile used is a
round wooden ball, instead of the fiat
cheese-shaped object used in skittles.
The game seems to be of ancient Ger
man origin, and to have come from
Germany to the Netherlands, England
and France. it is described by Hugo
Won Trimverg, rector of a monastery
at Bamberg in the second half of the
thirteenth century (when there were
only three pins). The old English game
was called Kails Tin Scotland Kyles-
