Men are lscturing. women are writing.
ana folk are talking everywhere about
the evils Of food aduiteration. short
weights and measures. Indifferent buy
ing. shoddy materials. and frauds Of
every size and shape. ~
And they say that women. the spend
ers. must be educated to know how to
buy. how to discriminate between the
good and the bad. how to look for
shrinkages, leakases and all-how to
stand up before an army Of fraudulent
butchers. bakers. and candlestick makers
and get the better of them at every turn.
They must be well trained to spend
their husbands money. and then. the
high prices viii simply fade away by the
magic Of woman's alertness and vigi-
lance all along the line, where manufac-
turers. merchants, and tradesmen. great
and small, have learned to hoodwink
| easy-going housewives.
Sometimes they infer and sometimes
they frankly say that these women buy
ers are not equal to the work with which
they have been intrusted and they must
be sent to training schools here, there.
and everywhere.
No Trickery Anywhere.
Back in the days Of long ago when
women made practically everything that
was eaten or worn in the home. and
made it right within the home walls.
there were no cries OF fraud" no shod-.
diness. no trickery anywhere.
They took the vegetables as they came
from the ground, the fruit as II dropped
from the trees. canned them, and put
them away on crowded shelves. with no
one standing guard to make certain that
quart was quart. a pound pound.
Their bread. made and baked in great
motherly loaves. did not shrink and shrink

must be weighed to prove 1t.
Cookies and cakes were made and
packed away in ample jars-no cartons

the guide men, peeped in the we'll

A grateful tribute TO Admiral w. H.
II. 6outherland and the American forces
In. Nicaraguh, rendered the American
commander-in-chief by the women OF
Granada, was made public at the State
Department yesterday. The women
wrote the admiral Z letter. expressing
their gratitude to him and his men for
having relieved the Inhabitants Of the
city Of Granada from the frightful
menace OF the rebels. and accompanied
the letter with q bouquet Of flowers
from their own home gardens.
After reciting the fact that recurring
conflicts in Nicaragua have brought sad
ness to the country. the letter declares:
These conflicts have been each day
more stubborn and bloody. the bitterness
each day greater. and the loss each
time more irreparable. bringing about a
division 80 deep In the Nicaraguan fam
lily that the most perverse elements pre-
dominated In this city. and It fell to our
lot to live In q state OF horror ana
fright in which the mother. daughter.

Of all they held most dear. and Of their
subsistence, Of the most necessary things
even for the life Of the children, or pos
sibly the loss Of their own honor.

ton OF Of the recent conflict. which was

brated with enthusiasm your arrival on

that soon our Ills would cease. Our
hopes were fulfilled, inasmuch as you
have given with wonderful rapidity the
peace and tranquility that We 80 much
longed for.
"On account of the shortness Of your
stay in this city. We are not able to ex-
press to you personally our gratitude

DAISY BLOUSE Is
PRBTTYANDDAINTY
The Clever Girl Will Find It Easy
to Sketch the Pattern.

One of the daintiest blouses I have
ever seen was made of fine white ba-
tiste. hand embroidered with garlands
of daisies laid on like a daisy chain
around the edges Of the collar. cuffs.
and down the front
1t was a delightfully."- simple little
blouse. which could easily be copied at
home by any girl VINO is fond of dainty
needlework.
Handkerchief linen, cotton voile, or
soft japanese silk could be used in
place of the batiste IL you do not care
for that material The blouse Is cut
over a plain model having a deep
sailor collar which opens in v in
front. This has the edge cut in seal
lops buttonholed with fine white mer-
cerized cotton: or. II it Is made of silk.
the embroidery would be of silk floss in
shades that will match the natural
flowers. Work the petals with white
4icss and tip them with the very palest
shade of pink and yellow, should you
desire a touch OF color in the embroid-
cry. The stems and leaves will have
to be worked in the stem stitch with
very pale green floss: but If the en-
broidery is done in cotton, I advise You
to let it all be in white.
IuO inc Icuu1S
Pad the petals with darning cotton:
then cover 1t with the fine cotton. using
the stem stitch or the satin stitch. The
centers of the flowers look well when
worked with French knots.
The scalloped edges are first padded.
then worked with the buttonhole stitch.
And II you wish to make the work a
little more elaborate, work an eyelet in
the center of each scallop or a round
dot in solid emproidery.
The daisy is one Of the simplest flow
ers TO draw, and you can sketch your
own pattern, making two or three flow
ers. with stem and a leaf to each flow
er. Then repeat the design all along
the edge of the collar. cuffs. and front
frill. 1t can be traced from the paper
on which IT is drawn to the material
by the use Of carbon paper and a hard
pencil or the end of a knitting needle
