LOW WAGE VICTIM

LOW WAGE VICTIM
Another story of low wages
paid by loop department stores,
with the consequent fall of a
young, girl, was told in Judge
Hopkins court this morning
when Marie Walters, 18 years
old, was brought to trial, charged.
with larceny. She was discharged.
The girl lives at 800 E. 10th st.
Two years ago she was a happy
high school girl. Then her father
died. The family had no money.
Marie and her brother, then IA
years old, were forced to go to
work to support their mother.
The girl obtained position in
department store. The boy went
into an office.
They managed to live, but
Marie denied herself the little.
vanities of other girls that her
mother might be comfortable.
Yesterday a piece of silk in the
store where she worked attracted
the girl. She had, never had any
thing like it. 1t was only a small
piece and she took it. A detee-
tive saw the girl and arrested her.
She was charged with shoplift-
ing.
In court the girl told of her pitt
ful struggle to maintain the little
home on the small wages she was
paid,

CALLING OBLIGATIONS.

Even though she is not a society
butterfly, every woman who desires to
have a circle of friends or a~cquaint-
ances must make certain stated calls.
Not to make them is to show careless
ness and lack Of good breeding.
You should have a list of your call
ing acquaintance and manage to go
to see them at least twice a year.
A call after having been entertained
at dinner or luncheon or at an evening
entertainment is necessary, as is also
the call Of congratulation after a mar
rage or birth.
Those who have had a sorrow should
be called upon. In the home where
there is illness you should call and
make inquiry as to the condition of the
patient.
The newcomer in the neighborhood
should be called upon, as should also
the stranger who has been introduced
to you by a friend.
A first call should be returned within
a week or at least within a fortnight.
ANY of the other calls mentioned
should be made promptly.

The Missing Laundry.

Dear Miss Doom:
I am a constant reader of The Eve-
ming Star. and as you give such good
advice, I would like to know If you
could give me some advice, too. I
AVE had my washing done for over a
year in a steam laundry. At different
times I missed some pieces of wash.
1 told the driver. and he said he would
see about 1t, but I never got 1t made
good. Last year, the first week of
September, / missed a new white skirt,
a new dark apron and a boys blouse.
1 wrote to them right away, but re-
ceived no reply. Three days after /
went down myself. only to be almost
insulted by the manager. Finally he
told me to call in again In w weeks
to see If any of the pieces showed up.
When / came down he tried to get out
of 1t again, but told me afterwards
they would do a couple of washes for
me. I do not care to lose any more
wash. SO I refused and said he should
nav me for my Loss. I went down again
and he told me that I would get moth
ing, What would you do about this?
My loss is about $3.50 Hoping you can
give some good advice, I remain, sim
cerely, MRS. f. II.
Under the law the laundry owner is
bound to exercise extraordinary care
in returning the goods sent to him in
the course of business. 1t is unfair to
assume hat there was any intention
on his part to take from you any of
your belongings, but it is his duty to
return them to you in as good con-
dition as received. I would advise
that you write the laundryman, noti-
flying him that you will bring suit I'M
less settlement is made.

FILET SQUARES.


With the popularity of filet lace for
the trimming of handsome gowns,
linen sets, etc, comes the request Tor
directions how to make them.
In the art neeedlework department Of
large shops it is possible to purchase
plain flet net squares. on which can be
worked any pattern you desire. 1t is
necessary to stretch the net square
over a frame. having it taut. Frames
also can be bought, but a small square
slate or picture frame will do as
we'll. The square can be held in
place over one of these by means of
heavy thread caught aroun the
frame. The design is then filled in
with a simple darning stitch. worked
over and under the mesh with linen
thread.

a moderately coarse needle, n after

More Cleaning Queries.
dear Miss Doom,

viii you kindly let me know what to do
to remove the odor of sour milk from a
cloth coat. 1t has been thoroughly cleaned
and aired, but the odor still remains. /
would also like to know how you could
clean and brighten up a brown leather
cite hood of a baby carriage. Thanking
you in advance, 1 am, respectfully,
A STAR READER.
Unless you are mistaken when you
say the coat has been thoroughly
cleaned, I can see NO reason for any
odor. Hang the garment in the air for
two or three days, and If the odor is
still present wash it thoroughly in
gasoline and then air it again. Be
careful not to use the gasoline in a
room where there is a fire, gas or an
open flame of any kind.
A good dressing for leather is made
as follows: Put into a bowl one gill
of hot water, half an ounce of arnotto
and half an ounce of white soap,
shaved. Place the bowl in a pan Of
boiling water. Into a second bowl put
half an ounce of shaved beeswax and
place in the pan of boiling water. Stir
the contents of both bowls until they
are melted Inc then take them from
the fire. Into the melted wax stir one
gill of turpentine, one gill of parafine
oil and finally the mixture Of a~rnotto.
o and water. Beat the mixture until
it Is cold and then put 1t in a wide
mouthed bottle or fruit jar for future
use. Before applying the dressing wash
the leather with a soft cloth and hot
milk. Rub the dressing on with a
soft cloth. Although this dressing is
prescribed for leather l think it can be
used successfully on leatherette.
