THE POOR MANS PROBLEM.

Money is the best partner man

 man can have-particularly if they
 earn and save it.. Deny yourself little while you are young and strong and when you are old the world will deny you nothing needful.
 The most desolate object in the
 world is the man who has passed the age for work, who has, earned good
 money, has lived we'll and has nothing left.
 But a penniless old, woman whose past was sanctified with motherhood
 and gloried with love. proves the crime of neglect in the man who did
 not provide for her. Your salary is dependent on condi tions utterly beyond your control. Save little, however small, and in

The Best WAY to Make Yokes,


The making of Jokes is not an In
significant matter It is often 4 puzzle
even in the sewing room. Theoretical
ly yolles are nothing but a small piece
of thin material cut into q straight
collar and peplum to cover up the
bare space of the neck. Practically
they are a nuisance, breaking up ala
theories, going against all rules and
generally harassing those who make
and those who wear them.
1t is these Jokes that have caused
all the trouble. How to keep them
down, how to make them smooth, how
to have them cleaned, are tri1ogy OF
questions that women ask each other
whenever they foregather.
Even when only an inch or two OF
this yoke shows above the neck OF the
blouse it requires as much harness to
keep it down as to keep a horse In the
shafts This harness method is as fol-
lows: The yoke is cut to the proper
depth with the collar attached One
tape is run from the middle of the
front to the waist line and one from
the middle of each armhole, front, to
the waist, then two down the back.
one on each side of the middle and an
securely served to- a tight belt made
of broad tape which hooks at the back,
This method is advocated as the only
successful one by women who have
studied the problem.

for the benefit of the interested Wis

Advices from Paris declare that
long narrow coats of black-brOwn
plush or velvet, with wide soft collars
of the same materials, are all the rage
in the center of fashion. Some of the
best coats are finished with fur, but
that is considered adding unnecessary
wealth to richness, since the plush or
velvet coats are sufficiently heavy and
smart in themselves not to need the
adornment of the pelts. Some very
dressy coats for afternoon wear are
made of velvet dressed with white
satin, with wide sailor collars of satin
and with loose revers of satin down
the front The evening wraps are
made long Of lace, velvet, brocade,
embroidery, etc Almost any material

LITTLE RECIPES.

Russian Mince.-Cut a pound
of cold meat into small pieces;
also any cold vegetables, ham,
bacon or a suet pudding. Fry
all in a little dripping. Season
highly with pepper, salt and a
little fried chopped onion and
tablespoonful of vinegar. Stir
all together over the fire and
serve very hot on toast.
Chopped Parsley For Garnish-
ing.-Chop it very fine, then
screw it up in the corner of a
clean cloth. Hold it for a few
seconds under the cold water
faucet and then squeeze it as
tightly as possible. Shake it out
of the. cloth and it will fall like
a green powder.
Banana Salad.-Peel and cut a
banana in half lengthwise. Lay
the halves on a lettuce leaf, COW
er each with mayonnaise dress
ing and scatter a few chopped
nuts over. The effect is most
tasty.
Rice BaIls.-Take some cold
rice pudding, rather stiff; make
into small balls, dip them into
egg, then into breadcrumbs, and
fry in hot fat. Make a hole in
the top and fill with jam and
serve.
Steamed Egg.-Take a large
saucer, rub it with butter and
set it over a pan of boiling wa
ter. Beat egg lightly, with one
tablespoonful of milk and a
pinch of pepper and salt. Strain
into the saucer, cover it and
leave for ten minutes to cook.
Oatmeal Scones.-0ne break
fastcupful of oatmeal, one break
fastcupful offour, one teaspoon
full of salt, two teaspoonfuls Of
baking powder, two eggs. half a
pint of milk. Put -four, oatmeal,
baking powder and salt in a
basin; beat eggs well, add milk
and mix all into a soft dough.
Bake in small heaps on a tin;
split and butter.

Points
For
Mothers
49,

The custom Of taking children to
funerals is being denounced by many
preachers and persons who make
special study of children. They argue
that the child mind is especially sensi-
tive and it should not be subjected to
thoughts of death and tragedy unless
absolutely necessary, because the I'M
pressions the child receives give an I'M
desired twist andsturn to the develop
ment of the mind and have lasting
effect toward morbidness The Rev.
Gerald G.. Fanshawe, vicar of Godal-
ming, England, has taken up the sub
ject with much energy. He writes:
The clergy have frequently noticed
that young children, sometimes in con
siderable numbers, are TO be seen at fu-
neral services at the cemetery. They
are not the children of the hereaved
family but those of neighbors and oc-.
casionally of persons who merely come
and watch out of morbid curiosity.
It cannot be a good thing that young
lives should be thus early familiarized
with all that is sad and somher. Joy
and brightness should be associated
with childhood, and as far as possible
they should be shielded from anything
which is gloomy and depressing.

ANOTHER NINDICATIoN.

The Commoner: The decision rem
dered BY the United States Supreme
Court January 4, sustaining the consti-
tutionality of the bank guaranty laws OF
Oklahoma, Nebraska and Kansas is an
other yindication for progressive dernoc-
raey. The policy of protecting deposit
sors is now established; the highest court
il the land has refused to support the
fnanciers in their effort TO prevent the
securing of depositors. The last Dem
ocratic national platform has triun1phed
aagain. Let the Democracy of the Nation
fejoice and yet the Democratic legis-
latures follow the example of Okla

Women Of Fashion to Substitute
Turkish Trousers.

No more radical change in the dress
Of woman has ever been heard OF
than that cabled from Paris recently
declaring that one of the biggest
French dressmakers has relegated pet
ticoats to the attic and that the smart
ly dressed woman of the moment viii
wear a modified Turkish trousers cos
tune.
The short lived hobble skirt, in other
words, lasted just long enough to give
the dressmakers and moldeTs of Wom-
ems fashions time to invent a garment
just little mQge outre and extraOrdi-
nary When Mary Garden arrived in
New York last fall she had in her
wardrobe one of these new Turkish
trousers gowns. She declared at the
time that it was not made specially
for her, but was 1.-THE mode" The re-
porters laughed and would not believe
the merry Mary.
"But Doucet will bring this trousers
dress out, and every smart woman VIII
be wearing it in Paris before the
month is OUT Miss Garden said, and
the prima donna was right, even if she
was radical, for the cable from Paris
says that the loose fitting pantaloon
skirts are the very latest thing and all
women who would be in the mode
must wear them.
1t will surely simplify the suffragette
question, for now woman will get the
trousers before she gets the ballot,
and it viii probably settle her status
as citizen more quickly than amend,
