THE NEWEST THING
IN SILK HOSIERY

From Paris comes the newest thing in
silk hosiery-those embroidered with
dots.
These may easily be done at home,
and many who cannot AFFORD to pay the
exorbitant price asked for a pair OF
these pretty stockings may enjoy the
luxury OF owning several pairs.
Embroider the dots in a triangular
shape upon the instep, placing them a
uniform distance apart, carefully follow
ing the outside line Of the triangle which
you have basted on the stocking.
Black stockings are often dotted with
white. The pale tints are embroidered
with the black and white silk.
These would make a lovely gift for the
graduate. Amy girl would appreciate
such thoughtfulness on your part.
Small flowers arranged in artistic de-
signs are very pretty, but they require

A POEM THAT HAS HELPED
ONE STEP At A TINE.

CPubIished at the request Of Mn Richard LsiEh.)
There's a mine OF comfort for you and
me
In a homely bit Of truth
We were tenderly taught at mother
knee
In the happy days Of youth.
It is, what IL the road be long and steep
And we too weak TO climb,
Or, what though the darkness gather
deep,
We take one step at . time.
A single step and again q step,
Until by safe degrees,
The milestones passed, we win at last
Home, when the King shall please.
And the strangest thing is often this.
That the briery tangled spots,
Which cumber our feet. should be thick
and sweet
With our Lords forget-me-nots.
It matters little the space We take,
II we journey sturdily on.
With the burden bearers steady gait,
Till the days last hour is gone;
Or II. with the dancing foot OF the child
Or the halting step OF age,
We keep the goal in the eye OF the soul.
Through the years Of our pilgrimage.
ana yeIy IN Iue tramp OF hppOlIIurQ uhgs
This ling must sometimes be,
That we falter and pause and bewildered
gaze,
For the road has led to the sea
And the fOemAn's tread is on our track
AS once on the blooming coast,
Where the children of Israel, looking
Saw PharsOh's threatening host
Than cIsar rrom the skies our Leader
voice.
GO forward" bids US dare.
Whatever we meet. with fearless feet,
And the might Of trustful prayer.
So. ever advancing day by day.
In the Masters strength sublime.
Even the lame shall take the prey,
Marching ono step At time.
And what of the hours when hand and
We are bound and laid aside:
With the fevered vein and the throbbing
And the world at its low ebb tideG
And what Of our day OF the broken heart
When all that our eyes can see
Is the vacant space where the Vanished
OF our darling used to bsi
Then. waiting and watching and almost
spent
Comes peace from the Lords owr
hand.
In his blessed Will II We rest content,
Though we cannot understand.
And We gather anew our courage and
hops,
For the road so rough to climb.
With trial and peril we well may cope
One single step-at a time

CUDAHY AND WIFE
KISS AND MAKE UP;
NOW LIVING TOGETHER

Kansas City, Mo. June 1s.-Mr. and
Mrs. John P. (Jack) Cudahy have been
reunited. Two years ago a formal decree
OF divorce was issued TO them by Judge
Slower in an action Of the law. This
followed the sensational attack Of the
husband upon Jere Lillis, banker.
Last week a reconciliation was affected
and the two returned to housekeeping in
the apartment at 3527 Main Street, that
has been occupied by Mrs. Cudahy since
a short time after the divorce.
At the Cudahy home tonight few de-
tails OF the reunion were given out. But
Mr. Cudahy and Mrs. Cudahy admitted
the reconciliation.
Both, being Catholics, regard them
selves as stin married, despite the court
decree divorcing them

Coloring Lace,

Very frequently We desire to give that
rich, old ivory tone to white laces.
This may be accomplished by the fol-
lowing method: Place a pan in 5 cents
worth Of yellow ocher. Mix with this
sufficient rice powder to produce the de-
sired shade.
Shake the lace into this, and after
removing brush away all loose dirt. The
lace will retain the yellowish tint in

By FRANCES SCATTER.

In the current number Of q promi-
nent woman's magazine the strange
charge Is made that "the American
woman has not been Non the job" and
that because Of her remissness prices
have SCARED. food has been adulter-
ated, false weights have become COM
monplace, and frauds OF all sorts have
crept into the manufacture OF goods
to wear, things to eat and furnishings
for the home.
Not one Of these things could have
come about. 50 the magazine assures
US. II women had seriously taken their
work as buyers and managers,
It is little confusing to- learn just
what is the popular conception OF .
woman's job, but IL strikes some Of US
that this is a BIT overlapping her work,
as IL has. been outlined.
It is true enough that women,
through concerted action, may force
down prices on some of our commodi-
ties; or, falling in that, that they may
skip the fancy-priced shops and go
where meats, vegetables, and all food
stuffs may be bought at less ruinous
prices. They may learn the values Of
commodities and refuse to accept in
ferior stun masquerading as high
grade. They may weigh every pound
Of butter and every ounce OF pepper
that comes into their homes, may ex-
anime food for evidences Of adultera-
ton and scrutinize everything eatable,
wearable, and usable before placing
upon it the stamp of their approval, or
at least their acceptance.
But the necessity Cor so much rigor-
Gus peering into the manufacture Of
goods. so much searching for frauds,
for adulteration, and short weights Is
something Of a comment upon the way
things run before they reach women's
hands at all.
One-sided ArraiEnment.
This magazine tells women that II they
would give to their Jobs, as it calls It,
as much intelligence and care as do men
to their work as producers there would
be no occasion for protesting against
high prices and things gone wrong-men
90 not allow frauds in materials used
in their business houses, and why should
women be less exacting and watchful?
And perhaps one ought to pass these
things by as the idle wind. but as one
reads a one-sided arrsIgnment Of this
sort and thinks Of the fallacy Of scold-
ing women for high priced home-com-
modities, the mind turns TO many other
things by way Of comparison.
The keeping of a home is essentially a
''womaL's job the selection OF furnish

One WAY to Save Pennies.

Save all your empty coffee and baking
powder cans, also your hubby's tobacco
cans II he buys Il by the pound, which
he should DO. as by SO doing he can save
the price Of cigar or more on a pound
can Now, in place Of sticking labels on
your empty cans, try my way. Soak OF
the wrapper on can and dry well. Then
paint cans white and let dry. Then print
black letters on whatever you wish to
use can for-for example, beans, peas,
rice, sage, and such like. Now, II you
buy your spices by the pound you can
save dollars in a years time. They can
be bought in bulk at all the big stores.
So save all your empty cans to put them
in By painting cans white and the let
ters black you can find what you want
at a glance and no labels always coming
on. Just try Il for yourself and see.

LOVELY FOoTGEAR,

Footgear. for those who can AFFORD the

and the fancy now is for kid instead OF
for suede footgear, and the colors, If
they do not match the dress, mRrmontze

coat.
Naturally, the beauty Of such tootgeaF
must be matched by exceedingly lovely
hosiery, made OF silk inset with lace,

BLAME FOR SOARING PRICES OF
FOODSTUFFS LAID TO LAX
BUSINESS METHODS OF WOMEN

inEs and all the details Of buying, once
the house and grounds are there. But
when II comes to the erection Of the
house. the materials to enter into its
construction, the multiplicity Of little
things to be considered. then everything
IS rnan-supplied man-scrutinized and
man-bought.
Yet the prices Of building materials
have gone up and up until II is venture
some TO undertake the erection OF q
house. unless ones purse-strings Are
quite free.
And as to frauds and adulterationS
well, there's many Va house that will
not stay painted to-day because some
thing is wrong in the mixture, many q
sign of early decay that could not have
happened II someone had been "on his
job," as that woman's magazine declares
man IL.
And the very paper on which our news
is printed, the ink and all. have soar
ed in price with the rest; yet the making
Of q newspaper Is certainly over the
fence Of woman's domain, and neither
yoluninous feminine market basket nor
the most careful feminine scrutiny would
avail to take on a single fraction OF the
cost Of such materials.
The plain fact Is that the more wom-
an is 'on her Job" the more she learns
that It is not alone within her domain
that prices are up TO almost top notch
and that practically all she can do to
combat these prices is to patroniZe the
lower priced places. to discriminate IN
her buying and to make the best OF q
bad situation.
Blame Is Unfair.
But to blame her for the high cost OF
living strikes one very much as It does
10 blame her II her boys and girls 20
wrong when they get out in the world
where her theories and her example are
dropped for the theories and the eX-
amples found on the outside.
In this talk Of mans Job" and WON
ans job" the inference is that each has
work a-plenty in his own sphere, man
the producer, the ruler, woman the home
maker, the helped. And according TO
that Interpretation, II seems that while
woman is making her home sweet and
pure, her children well equipped for life,
man should eliminate food adulteration,
false weights and frauds IN the manu-
factUre OF goods and should make the
world ready for her children, true stanu-
ards Of measurement and true standards
Of living.
Because while It Is quite true that II
makes a vast difference where and how
a woman buys, high prices confront her
everywhere, in the public market or the
private shop. And let her weigh as she
will, protest as she may and 90 as far
as she can in the search for economy,
there is something more powerful than
q woman figure that stands between her
and high prices.
