that the lack OF education and resist
ing force had much to do with the
downfall OF women. Men, too, were
blamed as primarily responsible for
The degradation OF girls.
Witnesses who declared that low
wages were not responsible for social
vice admitted, however, on being
questioned, that with higher wages
working girls would be better equip
ped 10 resist evil, and all recommend
ed that q minimum wage law for
girls would be Of great benefit. Eight
dollars Il week as u minimum wage for
women was the generally accepted
sum estimated By the witnesses, Mrs

Hairpins and other pins-

Hairpins have been elaborated as
means of decoration since the earliest
times. Particularly beautiful is the
variety and delicacy of their workman
ship, two of the finest specimens being
the gold pins which were found at
Salamis in Cyprus, and are now in the
British museum. Even more hand
some we're the Saxon pins of a later
date, with their shank OF brass, head
of gold, and establishment of garnets
and pearls. There we're, too, the laTg-
er sort OF pins so conspicuously and
frequently mentioned in the Bible. The
instrument driven by Jael through the
temple of Sisera was probably tent
pin, while Delilah fastened the web
of Samson's hair with a pin or batten.
In the middle ages pins were great
fashion - indeed, great necessity -
In France, and we have 1t on record
that in 1347 10000 pins were removed
from the Royal wardrobe for one of
the French Processes. The conven-
fence was probably little later in
reaching England, but in 1910 we hear
Of Queen Catherine (Howard) import
ing pins from France. In 1860 the
trade underwent considerable change,
brass superseding iron, while at the
same time the price was lowered.

MATCHING AND BRooDING.
BY kathrine Anterior Grimes.

The boy with ten to twenty fowls
win probably do most of his Matching
with hens. But where the breed kept
is of some non-sitting variety, the in
cubator becomes almost necessity,
especially If one wishes to get early
chicks-the only ones that pay we'll.
For a flock of this size, a 50-eggs
machine is plenty large enough. and,
as these may be had at quite small
cost. it is about as we'll to use one
of these, and let the hens go on sit
ting. The eggs they will lay while
it is doing their Matching for them will
soon pay for the machine.
II an incubator is not used, the best
plan is to get hold of some-two-year-
old hens, of one of the large, quiet
broods. and keep them just for sit
ting. II they are fed for eggs from
November on, they will be ready for
business by March. Even with Q
machine, half dozen hens of this
kind will prove good investment, for
reasons which you will see little
farther on. They may be disposed OF
as soon as their work is done, so one
need not be out much except their
feed to secure their services during
the Matching season.
Those who have had considerable ex-
perience with incubators tell us that
hen-hatched chicks are usually the
most vigorous. Even the best incuba-
tor is likely to turn out a few weakly
or crippled chicks with each hatch.
But the machine is far more likely
than the hen to behave well at the
critical time when the fluffy babies are
coming out of the shell. so, as the say
ing is, it is about six of one, and half
a dozen of the other"
A system that makes out to take
advantage of the good points and
avoid the worst drawbacks of both,
has been devised, and carried out with
good results. The plan is to put the
eggs under the hens for the first two
weeks, and then remove them to the
incubator, and let it finish up the

1t is not absolutely necessary tc
test the eggs, but it is best to do so
! usually test eggs after the morning
OF the eighteenth day. The chick is
full formed by this time; the eggs do
not Iieed turning.
Do not open the egg chamber after
the chicks begin to pip the shell. This
rule is not invariable, but the only ex.
ception is to take out the chicks when
very good hatch is secured and
they crowd to the light in the door.
Then open the door. roll the chicks
out into a basket and close the door
as soon as possible.
Don't try to help chick out of the
shell. II 1t cannot get out without
help it is not worth saving.
Don't worry if the chicks gasp and
struggle for breath. This is natures
way of opening up the lungs and Civ
ing the chickens strength.
Don't worry about the machine II
the temperature the first week is be-
tween 101 and 103 degrees it is good
enough! only try to keep it about 103.
1t will not hurt anything if the tenn
perature happens to run down to SIS
degrees some night.
Don't be alarmed If the tempera-
ture gets up to as high as los degrees
fer an hour or SO. Simply take the
eggs out and let them cool and change
the regulator a little. If very good
hatch is coming off the temperature
will rise the last week.
In warm weather have often taken
the lamp away from the machine dur
ing the middle of the day. At this
time the animal heat of the chicks
tends to increase the temperature and
104 degrees is common
Be sure to get perfectly fresh eggs
from healthy hens. Use only the best
grade Of oil. Fill and trim the lamp
in the afternoon rather than in the
morning and do this every day.
Do not trim the lamp wick with
scissors, but gently rub the charred
part off so as to give an even, broad
fame.
II these directions are followed a
good hatch may be anticipated. They
are based on an experience reaching
back to about 1884.
