THE EASY LIFE.

YRS is the age Of "msking things eay"
Only the other day the Inspector Of Employment Bu-
resus, in reporting the dearth Of domestic servants In
Nw York, said the hest remedy Icy in making the work moro strac
uWs-essier requirements, time OF every day, entertainment for
Asnds, DC. &c.
Interesting in this connection h the fact thst domestic servants
- almost the one and only class that hes not been affected by
~ increased cost Of living. Obviously in their case the cost Of
-: fair and square on their employers. Yet domestic ssrvants'
wagse have increased so per cent in ten years! And now their
WI must be made more tempting!
II IL probsbay all right and just. Long ago there uscd to be

Jsmes Of the old days would have hung his head II the silver

vAsn their best dishes came back to the kitchen criticised or un-

OF couss these things we're all in times Of ignorance and
oppression All that is past. The man Of to-day who has work 70
Do IL proud, not Of how well ne does il, but Of how little Of it he
los and ROW much he gets for IL. Doubtless all IA for the best.
Education il much the same. Mr.. Edison is going 10 spend
100000 and devote eight years to developing educational
"movies" 80 that the boy who "hstes school and cannot learn from
books may have something 10 interest him and make studying
essy.
There used to be q silly prejudice that learning had no royal
approach, that knowledge had to be dug out patiently, nugget by
nugget. Moreover, there prevailed a foolish notion that 1t was good
for small boys occasionally 10 be made to absorb something not
entirely sugar plums; that ono Of the most important aims Of educa-
ton was to develop the power Of holding the attention fixed on some
thing not intrnscsly pleasant.
Misguided people haye Thought that mastering irregular verbs
OF figuring how long IL would take the ono impossible man to do
the usual impossible job did after all impart to the mind a certain
fibre and endurance for meeting some Of the later u~mttrsctive
"posers" Of life.
4 But We have changed all that. Apparently work and study
an be msde easy and attractive from the start.

THE ONE

Women Suhragists deserve frank apology from the Po-
iie Commissioner for the failure Of the police protection
- promised them in their parade Of last Saturday. Entirely
justified and to the point was the letter Of complaint which the
President Of the Womens Political Union sent afterward to Com
missioner Waldo.
Many people are not in sympathy With the principles Of woman
suffrage. Many have deplored the methods Of its advocates in other
countries. But no one who saw the parade in this city last Satur-
day can have failed to admire the admirable order, dignity and i'm
pcsssivenes Of the American demonstration. Its immense signif-
cameo a. a measure Of the growing strength and appeal Of tho cause
stould not be for one instant beittled.
Certainly the most ardent antisufrngist cannot but regret that
the city did not furnish every means Of protection and every evidence
Of respect toward those marching thousands.

LET PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT 1T.

A merchant may have an ideal
stock Of goods, selected with
good judgment, offered at low
profits, but if he does not take
pains to tell the people about it,
few will remember that he is do
ing business when they have any
thing to buy.
On the other hand, a merchant
may select his stock with poor
judgment and he may ask for an
inordinate profit for himself.
But if he talks about his goods
persistently he will interest peo-
pie in them, and his store will be
thronged with buyers.
This is no day for hiding your
light under the busheI of business
reticence. People don't seek out
things that hide away out of
sight. They have to be sought
out. The initiative must always
be taken by the man who has
goods to sell.
An advertisement giving your
name, place of business and a
few general facts about your line
will be useful. 1t will remind
people of your existence, and the
impression will turn the foot
steps of a good many to your
store.
The advertisement can be made
infinitely more effective, however,
by taking a few definite leaders
and concentrating attention on
them. Describe them just as
you would to a buyer in your
store, and name the price. You
can't fail to interest the people.

Time for Harvesting Oats.

Oats should be cut when the
grain is in the dough stage. II
cut when the grain is in the
milk the grain will be light in
weight. and if cut when full ripe
there will be a loss of grain in
h1ndling says writer. We en-
d tavor TO cut when the milk is
out of the grain. The crop is
cut with selfbinder, making small
sheaves.
Twelve sheaves are set to a
shock, and as soon rs the straw
is cured and the grain hard and
dry, we haul in as quickly as
possible. The crop should be
hauled in before a heavy rain. as
it is almost impossible to dry the
bundles if the straw is once
thoroughly wet, 1t is a hard
task to take down the shocks,
open out the bundles and spread
cut the sheaves to dry.
Owing to the soft straw and
chatf around the grain, the mois-
ture dries out slowly, even when
the weather is hot and dry.
Grain and labor are saved by
getting the crop under cover be-
fore showers.
After the sheaves are hauled
in the field should be raked.
These rakings cut fine and mix
ed with a little milfeed make an
excellent summer feed for the
horses. AS soon as the oats are
under cover the field should be
cut over with the two-horse sulky
cultivator or the steel disk. Run
the cultivator both ways. This
early work brings the dry seed
to the surface; it also prevents
the soil from crusting over.
