Little Hints for
the Housewife

When your W. does not respond
quickly, put a hot stove lid inside the
oven under the pudding or dish which
is baking.
Clotheslines and pegs will last much
longer If they are boiled for ten min
utes when new. 1t is a good plan to
repeat the boiling occasionally.
y
If doughnuts do not take on q gold
en- brown crust as soon as they are
dropped into the lard It is because
the lard is not hot enough.
In frying eggs if a few drops OF
water are added to the fat n the
frying pan covered, eggs will not be-
come tough.
Raisins often stick to the paper in
which they have been wrapped. At
such times hold the paper for a mo-
ment over the steam escaping from a
teakettle and the fruit can then be re-
moved readily.
Bread and cake may be kept fresh
by soaking a medium-sized new clean
sponge with cold water. Set it on a
saucer or in a small bowl and place 1t
in the bread box. When all the mois-
ture Is absorbed wet the sponge again.

KEEPING WARM.

The girls know how.
Just watch some of them.
They're tender of their coiffures.
They pull fur toques over their hair.
And, judging by the muff sizes, they
love their M
Shoulders stand well, too, if the fur
scarfs count.
The greater part of the body is con-
sidered also, fur coats being prevalent.
But the throat is evidently of little
account, being quite exposed to Boreas.
Feet and ankles are of no account
at n rate they get along as best they
can in cobwebby stockings and other

There are men in every commun-
ity who scoff at scientific farming
and go on the same way, year after
year, getting about half what the
soil ought to produce. The farmers
profession is not very different from
that of other callings and in every
one there is something to learn.
Thomas Harris, in Michigan, raised
last year 1000 bushels of potatoes
on three acres Of ground and few
days ago sold his crop for SOC per
bushel. Last winter, Mr.. Harris
took course in Michigan Agricul-
ture college and prepared his three
acres according to the methods
taught there; he planted and cared
for them as he had been instructed,
and the result was a surprise to his
neighbors, for when drouth affected
their crops, his vines completely cov-
cred the ground and at the time of
harvesting were still green, but the
potatoes were perfectly matured and
brought a premium when placed on
the market. Verify, it pays to mix
brains with farming, not only in
Michigan, but will pay in Ohio.

Under the auspices of the state
board of agriculture, a statewide
war on tubercular cattle is being
planned, the purpose being to rid the
state of infected cattle, but .particu-
larly to see that only healthy stock
is slaughtered and sold as food.
There have been abuses, members of
the board claim, and information has
come to the headquarters that has
been used in making the plans for
the war on unhealthy cattle. Tuber-
cular stock is found more frequently
in herds of blooded ribbon winners
than among the cattle of more lowly
station. For that purpose 1t is the
intention to make a careful survey
of the condition of the ribbon win

that, in the past, Molly has been
married to Mr.. Carter, an elderly
and pompous person who is now hap
PLY dead, leaving her his large for
tune; and, in the present, that Molly
tends to plumpness. The title has
twofold meaning, for Molly expects
the return of former lover who
has distinguished himself in diploma
cy, and undergoes course of diet.
ing and physical training to reduce
her too solid flesh that her erstwhile
sweetheart may find her able to wear
the blue muslin frock, with its twen>
ty-inch waist, that she was wearing
when he went away. AS the story
tells of her four or five lovers, and
her final surrender, the melting is
of the heart as we'll.
Molly is so winsome, so childish in
her dimples, that one follows her
through her various affairs of the
heart with absorbing interest, and
forgives her, even her open admira-
tion of her own beauty. AS she tells
the story, and has no one to sound
her trumpet, she must, perforce, let
her readers know how pretty she is
and how the men succumb to her
charms And it is not vain boasting,
either, for Molly chronicles her story
in little red book, and that we learn
it at all is entirely owing to Miss
Daviess' generosity in opening the
volume and giving us peek at
its pages.
1t goes without saying that The
Melting of Molly is wholesome, and
the characters are all likable. They
are of a type which is less homely
than that Miss Daviess has depicted
in her previous books, but they are
none the less charming for that. One
gets an intimate acquaintance with
them, and Billy Moore, the preco-
cious young son of the widowed doc
tor, walks straight into our hearts.
Molly's attitude toward this engaging
tot is the proof of her character
that she has the making of loving
wife and mother, of a cuddlesome,
comfortable, homebody. Therefore
it comes as lovely surprise when we
learn that Molly's lover from over
the sea is not her real lover after
all; but that little Billy's papa, who
all the time has lived next door
but read the book. You'll enjoy it
more.
Despite the joy, the gaiety, the eff
fervescence of the story, there are
many reflections on mankind, on
women's hearts, on life in general,
that are good reading. The story
runs along so smoothly, with so much
sparkle and spontaneity, that it is as
amusing as it is light. 1t is just the
kind of book needed to put one at
ease with himself.

SHE BLAMEs ESPRIT WIFE"
Mrs. William Phelps Dodge Divorced
Husband Because uncanny In
fiuence Ruled Him.

The uncanny influence of spirit
wife" is said to have been responsible
for the divorce action which Mrs. Will
liam Phelps Dodge has just won
against her millionaire husband.
The decree, which was signed in
Philadelphia, would have been grant
| ed several weeks ago, it is under
stood, but the judge wanted to make
a longer investigation of the unusual
charges brought by the girl wife OF
the widely known author and lawyer.
According to the papers in the case,
Mr.. Dodge, who is forty-eight years
old, met his young bride here at Sher-
ry's on election night, 1903, and after
an impetuous wooing, married her in
London on January 10, 1910.
Prior to that time she and her sis
ter had been in the chorus OF "Ha-
vana," a musical comedy playing at
the Casino.
Despite the difference in their ages
the bride was only eighteen-the
couple lived happily for couple OF
months after the wedding. Then Mrs.
Dodge charges that the spirit of Mr..
n
Dodge's first wife, Ethel, appeared be-
fore him and began to pick on" her
successor.
Young Mrs. Dodge said that when
ever she wore jewel, ve4l or any
thing that the first Mrs. Dodge had
possessed, the latter's spirit would ap-
pear before her husband and demand
that he have it removed at once.
And, according to the girl-wife, the
spirit-wife was always obeyed.
This treatment got on the nerves OF
the youthful Mrs. Dodge finally, and
she packed up and returned to this
country, leaving Mr.. Dodge in London.
Immediately on her arrival here, she
applied for the divorce through her
mother. as guar Ian, and charged that
cruel, barbarous and inhuman treat
ment had been inflicted upon her by
her husband.-New York Evening
