London Has Woman alderman"

One of the persons recently elected
to the Office of alderman of the city of
London is Lady st. Heller, and the
English papers are having fun asking
whether she VIII be known as an 'al-
derman" or an "alderwoman." They
all seem to agree, however, that she is
likely to prove a very efficient official
so the matter of her correct title
doesn't make much difference. By the
way, Lady st. Heller was a co-opted
member of the education committee of
the last London city council A "co-
opted" member is, according to the die
tionary, one elected in conjunction or
concert with another The lord mayor
of London IS always elected from the
aldermen who have held the Office of
sheriff. So there is a possibility of the
biggest city in the world having wo-
man for sheriff ana chief magistrate.

Visits to hairdressers are bother.
especially to the busy women. and the
work Of those of the visiting variety
is seldom, satisfactory owing to the
lack Of the necessary appliances. One
thing that can be provided is the sham
poo board. It adds greatly to the
comfort of the shampoo taken at
home. There are various kinds of
shampoo boards, most of them being
of metal The one most in favor has
curved space for the back of the
neck and grooves on which the hair is
laid and through which the water runs
into the stationary basin. With the
use of one of these boards the fatigue
of leaning over washstand for half
hour while the hair is washed and
rinsed is done away with. One can
sit comfortably in chair with the
neck resting on the board and the hair

Linen Picture Books to Be Embrcid-
cred an Interesting Toy.
The mother with nursery wants to
get those linen picture books that are
to be embroidered.
Sheets of linen are folded In such a
way that they need only TO be stitched
on one side The ends are turned back
and stitched down. or the hook may
be bound with white or colored linen
tape. On the different pages are ap-
propriate figures and letters to be
worked in outline stitch in mercerized
cottons.
Use a heavy cotton and the gayest
possible colors that will wash. The
larger figures can be done in long and
short stitch.
Such a book will not tear. may be
made vivid enough to catch a child's
fancy and will launder well.
The girl who can draw may origi-
nate designs on linen for it. Cut into
strips eight or ten inches long and fold
like a fan into FIVE inch folds. Stitch
at back through all these folds after
the outlining is worked. The embroid-
cry is done on both sides. This does
away with hemming each separate
sheet of book.
