The Servant Problem.

An interesting conversation heard in
the home Of a woman well known as
q successful housekeeper offered an ex-
cellent suggestion as to the order IN
which the merits Of q general housemaid
should be considered.
The woman In question had been inter-
viewing an applicant sent from an en-
ployment agency. She called up the ref
erence given by her prospective maid and
sought information concerning her quail
flcations for the place as follows:
Is she honest?
Is she good cook?
Can she do general housework?
Such logical, likewise practical,
method of procedure gives an insight in
to the secret of the wOman's success in
her home. Manifestly no maid could be
employed there who possessed even a
titiously extract money from the house,
hold allowance. carry of dollars worth
OF groceries, quiet thes baby with danger
Gus toys or decamp between days with
value in the house under lock and key 10
decidedly troublesome as well as uncom-
Portable. On the other hand. the surety
OF absolute honesty on the part of
strange member In the home is luxury
for which most women are willing to pay
investment In the end.
Next In order came cooking. why
this placing of the appetite at the head
Of the list? great many women will
ask. why not a well ordered house be-
fore full table?'
The wife who has made study Of the
comfort OF her husband will not have to
ask this question. A man may not see
the dust on the parlor mahogany. but II
the steak is burned and the salt left out
Of the potatoes he will know 1t in a min
ute. Moreover. he will resent the care
lessness and advise a new maid at once.
Nothing so eases the strain of a hard
days work for q man or puts him In bet
ter humor than q carefully prepared din
ner. Inasmuch as he Is paying the week.
ly wage Of the servant. he il entitled to
consideration in the list of merits.
AS for the household duties any dainty
woman knows when the house is clean
and in order. If the maid falls short In
this respect her mistress can direct her
work and see that It Is properly done.
With the maid as with other wage
earners, character takes precedence over
skill, and the sooner maid and mistress
come to know this for a certainty, the
less will be heard of the servant prob
lem.

The Small Porch.

Many are the rules for beautifying the
lawn. the garden, the four-by-six plot.
but the one small porch OF a series to
which many householder is limited,
well, its capabilities as a source of COM
tort and recreation are yet to be extolled.
With little pains this porch may be
lovely aspect into delight to the eye
and made to blossom like a rose in a
desert Of porches.
AS a means Of decoration the hanging
basket is not to be despised; it's possibil-
use. Two are SUFFICIENT for the small
porch. Fill them with ferns transplanted
with plenty of soil from their native
homie More pretentious baskets may con-
tain dwarf geraniums. petunias, pansies.
moccasin flowers and graceful trailing
them to within q foot or two OF the
basket. :.
Hanging baskets Of growing plants and
vines may be purchased OF the home
florist at q reasonable cost.
Do not forget to suspend fern ball: It
will soon become a mass OF curling
feathery leaves. Give the plants plenty
Of water. as the moisture evaporates
rapidly.
Find room for pot Of mignonette: it is
well known that flies avoid the odor OF
this charming old-fashioned flower. and
Its presence is q sure protection from
their annoyance.
A corner stand supporting a bowl of
goldfish will prove an attractive accessory
TO the furnishing Of the porch. Paint
the floor q cool gray. lay down rug. Be

and magazines. and enjoy the luxury Of
the small porch.

Summer Fashions.

For summer wear lingerie and en-
broidered dresses will be much worn,
and they have the added advantage OF
looking we'll after they are washed,
and for freshness and charm are un-
equaled for morning wear. The lin
gerie blouse will be as popular as ever.
and the wide. one-sided jabot being
much affected by smart women. These
Jabots vary greatly in price. Some
exquisite examples are made in hand
made embroidery and real lace. and are
of gossamer fineness, but good ap-
pearance can be obtained by an mex
pensive one. They should be OF as
good a quality as possible. as they are
much in evidence. being spread outside
the coat. and are seen in some cases
to be OF the most formidable dimen-
sions. The lingerie blouse will be ever
with us, as it is too dainty and at
tractfve. as well as economical, to be
lightly thrown aside.
Shantung has come to stay. and
though the original examples came
from the far east, most OF what we
buy is manufactured in France or Eng
land. It must be confessed. however.
that the latter product has neither the
wearing nor washing qualities of the
India or China silk. which, when. good,
is indeed difficult to wear put. Shan
tung hats are to be muck worn this
year, dnd some examples are trimmed
with vari-colored beads or oriental
trimmings. Hats of embroidery and
linen are also to be very popular. and
are often made over a.wire brim with
an under brim OF some light straw.
Some new and charming shapes in
linen hats are forthcoming for wear in
the dog days. and they are certainly
ideal for the seaside or on board ship.
With regard to straws, some particu-
larly nice examples OF the new manila
soft canvas straws In the new shapes
are to be seen. and these have a very
high crown when small. and low crown
when big. Chip and leghorn are old
favorites. and will again be seen. A
very new and smart example OF a
morning hat was made in q white
straw. piped with black. having an up
standing ruche Of killed net with
thin black center line going straight
up from the center of the hat in front
This had much the same effect as
white feather. and was at once smart
and original. Putty shades in straws
are very popular, but 1t is a trying
color to wear. save for the fortunate
possessor Of q matchless complexion,
and it looks best on the blooming face
of youth.

ALASKA

What is the better method for
the development Of Alaska, by gov
eminent or by private corporations
Secretary Fisher says:
"After such careful considera-
ton, however, 40 l have been able
to give to the matter, l believe
that the uncertainty Of immediate
financial return will prevent the
adoption Of the plan of private in
vestors and that the imperative
need Of immediate transportation
development calls for the construc-
ton of at least one main trunk
line from tidewater to the Yukon,
which can better be constructed
from Resurrection Bay through
the Matanuska coal fields than in
any other way. There seems to be
no likelihood that the Copper Riv-
or Railroad will be extended into
the interior for years to come, and
even then its route would probably
be far removed from the line l
have suggested.
I'm undertaking railroad CON-
struotion there 10 ample precedent
at Panama, and it must always be
borne in mind that a. q matter of
principle the Government is not
thus invading the legitimate do
main of private enterprise, but 10
in effect simply resuming one of
its own proper functions
Secretary Fisher was confronted
in Alaska by banners and badges
bearing the legend: Let US mine
our own coal" Fine, but needing
to be punctuated a. follows: LET
U. s. mine our own coal" We've
got the men we've got the ships,
we've got the money, too! And
fortunately, we've got the coal and
the consumers. So trot out your
pick and shovel, Uncle Sam, and
got busy.-San Diego Sun.

A SENSIBLE WILL

The will of the late Moses T.
Burwell, of Colorado Springs, pro-
vides that his son Guy shall re-
ceive $3.50 when he becomes Of
age. The will further provides
that Guy shall be paid $500 upon
his twenty-tifth birthday, provid-
ing that he has earned and saved
an equal sum by his own efforts.
In case he has saved $1,000 he is
to be paid 81, 900 at that time.
The will further protects Bur.
wells estate by CLAUSE regarding
drinking and gambling. 1t states
that should Guy or any of his
sons be found indulging in gam
bling or excessive drinking of in
toxicating liquors that they shall
receive the sum of but 500 in
full settlement of their share of
the estate and that the remainder
shall be divided among the other
heirs who have not INDUCED in

COMING IN BUNcHEs

A party composed of twenty-five
members of the Mennonite colony,
which is located in the vicinity of
Mcpherson and HilIsboro, Kan
sas, were in Alamosa the first of
last week and were taken to Dune
and return in ten of Mr.. Sells
cars. The men were brought here
by Messrs. Shahan and Robinson
as prospective settlers on the
Shahan a. Robinson tract in the
northern part of the valley and the
majority of them signed for land
before returning to the east, in
tending to return with their fam
lilies and household goods as soon
as possible. The nucleus of the
settlement will be the town of
Dune, directly north of Hooper on
the d. & R. G.
Another excursion will be run
in about four weeks when a still
larger number of homeseekers will
come to investigate the agricul-
tural and climatic wonders of the
valley.-Alamosa Courier.
