THE UNEXPECTED GUEST.

1t Is not always possible even In .
city to get things in hurry, and the
housekeeper who provides for the un-
foreseen need have no feVerish mo-
melts when the unexpected guest ar
rives. She will have In the store

occasions, and when any Is used 1t 10

next occasion. Potted meats and nsh.
canned soups and choice glasses Of
jelly and preserves, pickles and olives.
fnuts. fruit cake and cookies are some
of the useful supplies A few cans OF
vegetables, like corn, tomatoes and
string beans may be quickly turned

A jury in Atlanta, Ca, recently
returned a verdict sentencing a
woman, twice divorced, to wed for
the third time. The second husband
charged her with being suicide
fend," her attempts at ending life
usually being made, he said, to effect
a reconciliation. The jury, after
hearing the testimony, returned the
following verdict: I'VE find the
petitioner may marry again. We
further find that the defendant shall
marry again" The jury members
may have to help the woman find a
third husband. as she probably will
experience difficulty in finding one
without assistance, as the result of
the publicity given the verdict.

DO THINGS BY SYSTEM

1t Is not the woman who rushes
madly about who accomplishes most.
System Is what counts.
Have certain hours for certain
things
Give yourself plenty of timesfor the
performance OF each duty. but no more
than you are entitled to according to
your plans made beforehand.
Five minutes reflection at night is
worth more than an hours rush in the
morning.
Let the busy woman see that her
clothes are in order for the next day
that she has clean change OF linen
with all the buttons on. that her shoes
are we'll polished and her gloves and
belt laid In plain sight,
II everything is at hand she should
be able to take her bath and dress in
half an hour Then she may eat q
leisurely breakfast, and be ready for q
good days work.
That's what little planning and
foresight will do for her
The woman whose house IL run In
the best order, who keeps her help
the longest and has them best trained
has day for each thing.
The maid can take look at her
schedule and then 80 right ahead
without wasting any time in useless
questions.
She can In this way accomplish part
Of her work before her mistress 10
up AZ well as plan tomorrow's labor
the way her mistress does.
Method should also be used In re-
spect to the children. A child who
knows what 1t is expected to do at a
certain hour win eventually be trained
into the routine of doing 1t. thus saw
ing its mother many precious minu-
utes.
! The woman who has no method
might just as we'll give up trying to
accomplish anything In this world.
She loses too much time through lack
of forethought and planning.

A Boston restaurant keeper kept q
green turtle on its back in his win
dow and was tried on charge OF cru
city to animals. A Harvard university
professor testified that the turtle was
more nearly related to the birds than
the fishes. but the defense took the
ground that 1t was not an animal, but
q fish, and the Judge instructed the
jury to bring in verdict Of not
guilty. Whatever intellectual Boston
may hold as to the status OF the rep
tiles, there is no good reason why the
laws forbidding cruelty to animals
should not be broad enough to cover
more than warm-blooded animals.
