WOMEN OFTEN TURN WITH

Attitude Toward Woman.
her when she takes her place in the
world Of business. It naturally becomes
her own, in part. and as the years slip
along and take with them her youth
and early freshness, she does begin to
think OF quitting-time. For you know,
ones attitude toward life and its duties
is what counts in the long run, that, and
the attitude Of ones world
Right well / remember the rather
cynical, but very trite remark OF a
Sunday school superintendent a long
while ago. He was urging the impor-
tance OF regularity in attendance, and
as he talked to that gathering Of boys
and girls he told US there were some
with whom the question was perpet-
ual-"Shall 1 go to-day or stay homer"
And in the huctuating state Of mind,
the ever-recurring doubt, there was
no chance for frmness, and the Sun
day school was generally the loser.
And the others-why, they took It for
granted. Their teachers expected them,
their mothers hurried them OF, and
there was no quibbling or hesItancy
anywhere. 1t never entered their young
heads to do anything different.
Uncertain of Permanency.
And there's one of the chief reasons
for woman's uncertainty as a lasting
factor in the business world
The attitude which takes her exodus
for granted, because that very attitude
makes her feel just a bit out OF place
when the white hairs come and the
Passing years have told their own story.
Maybe the attitude will change in
time, and maybe then she will not grow
mere weary than man, more anxious
than he to get away from the sharp
ness and rush OF competition. But
meanwhile, one believes that the aver
age woman is not sorry when she can
show the fruits OF labor and retire to
the quiet Of work at home-for she
never wants to lay work aside until the
hnal quitting time has come

HELPFUL HINTS TO
SUMMER HOSTESS
Methods Used in Hot Countries for
Cooling Houses.

Those who have country homes are
more out OF doors than ever in this
month OF brilliant days, yet there Is
much work going on within doors, even
in the country. preparatory to making
outdoor living possible. II Is the month
Of garden parties and festivities OF a
social kind, a month Of light frocks and
light food, and the housewife looks about
her for. hints as TO making the house
cool and as to production OF dainty,
appetiEing dishes for the table.
SPECIFICS for keeping cool in hot
weather are put forward from time to
time by those who have fads and want
TO air them, but in the case OF houses
each idea must be considered separately
by those who inhabit them.
A suggestion might be taken from the
method pursued In hot countries, for In
stance, Italy, where constant use Is
made OF outside blinds, especially OF
wooden shutters which close down the
middle. These shutters allow the win
dows to be left wide open inside the
room, or a wet muslin blind can De
fastened over the aperture and kept
and other insects.
The shutters themselves need only be
drawn together and not fastened, max
ing a room beautifully cool and dark.
Keeping the Rooms Cool.
Where there are no wooden shutters
very thick striped material can be used
for blinds. which will shut or the sun
very eIectually but is apt 10 make a
room rather stuffy.
One OF the universal demands In hot
weather Is cooling drinks. Iced tea seems
TO appeal to a great many people when
Il Is made also q lemonade. To a quart
OF rather weak tea allow at least four
lemons and you will and that the mix
ture will please those who dislike the
plain tea. This solution can be modified
to suit the tastes.

ECONOMICAL COST OF LIVING.

The food question Of the day is .
serious one. The upward trend Of prices
causes the good house mother very Justi-
fable alarm. How can she curtail eX-
penses and at the same time give her
family sufficient food and indulge in the
fresh fruits and vegetables all crave?
Studying the question In the light Of mod
ern research she finds II an extravaganza
to provide the higher priced cuts Of meat
when cheaper cuts contain as much and
in some instances more nourishment;
she finds on studying the properties and
values of foods that her family uses an
excess Of meat and indeed OF all food.
She finds the size Of the individual. the
nature Of his work. the season OF the
year. &C. are all concerned in the amount
OF food required TO furnish the heat and
energy needed for twenty-four hours.
