GIRL WHO CATERS
FOR SOCIETY FOLK
Takes Full Charge Of Entertainments,
Supplying Help, China, Linen,
and Silver.

In the MAY Woman's Home Companion
appears an article showing how girls have
earned money at home. Following is
part of the testimony of one contributor:
When / finished my schooling the
household accounts and family ordering
were handed over to me, and / gained
knowledge of food values and household
economies. Going to market three times
a week / purchased the meat for some
of our neighboring friends as well, ana
learned the different cuts and how to dis
criminate between the good and the poor.
"One day one of these friends asked me
how much l thought a simple tea for 100
guests ought to cost. j estimated. 1t
sounded reasonable to her, and she asked
me if / would come in and assist her as a
daughter of the house might do. / was
delighted, and took hold with enthusiasm.
She finding me capable, left the whole
affair in my charge. 1t was such sue
cess that when / found myself in need
thought of this as a business.
Has Acquired Own silver.
I'm some cases / am called upon to sup
ply merely the refreshments. the hostess
depending up her own help for the service.
At other times ! take full charge, over
seeing, decorating, supplying help, china,
silver, and linen. / began by hiring the
china and silver, but gradually 1 have
purchased my own, buying only such
things as no hostess would be ashamed Of
owning.
The maids I employ are competent
mattresses: they always look neat and trig
in their black uniforms, while i wear
simple white gowns of lawn or crepe.
An hour or so before the reception on
the appointed day arrive with the neces.
sary help and with the refreshments all
rrepared except the beverage. We take
possession and have everything in readi-
ness when the hour Of serving is at hand.
Il make it a point that no soiled cups
or napkins shall remain for an instant on
the serving table, and that the dishes are
kept replenished. The result is that the
table when We are through serving looks
as dainty and fresh as when we began.
Every dish is washed, and the kitchen
put in perfect order before we leave"

1.-THE sacred liquid. the father of the
gods" they called 1t.
The ancient Egyptians believed the
Nile overlooked it's banks as the result
of the tears of the great goddess Isis
weeping for her husband Osiris, who
was murdered by his brother and his
body thrown into the Nile.
While they built temples to all their
other gods, the Egyptians never erect
cd one TO Father Nile. The Nile had,
however, its college of priests. Herod-
otus says that when any one was
drowned in the river or killed by one
Of it's crocodiles the priests of the Nile
took possession of the body and buried
It with special rites, considering 1t
something superhuman. sacred.
The mystery with which the Egyp-
tians surrounded their river is shown
by the fact that they never had a name
for it. 1t was designated by a word
probably pronounced Hap" which
meant concealed, mysterious. In Egypt
the name of a person was the very
auintessence of his being Those skilled
in magic were powerless to work their
incantations unless they knew the name
Of the individual whom they wished to
conjure. Hence tho Nile alone had
power over itself
The intimacy with which the river
entered into the familiar life of the
people is shown by very ancient say
ing discovered in one of the tombS,
which reads like this:
May the Nile pass into your dwell
ing. May it refresh you on your jour
ney. May you sit beside the river in
the land of rest and wash your face
and hands in it."

from &. L. Pesquiera, rebel governor
of Sonora, says the rebels at Ortiz
yesterday succeeded in capturing a
large number Of federal soldiers and
that the main federal army was
driven back in the direction Of Quay
mas and that the rebels would fol
low Immediately. He declared that
the rebels will attempt to attack the
federal outposts at Guaymas by Fri
day,
! None Of the rebel advance guards
has appeared within sight of the fed
eral outposts guarding Juarez, but
that the rebels are expected is evil
dent by the preparations for emer-
gencies.
Guards Of troops, extra large, patrol
the surrounding country, and field
pieces are mounted on the hills com
manding all approaches. The Juarez
garrison is not over 700 strong, despite
the federal claim Of over 1000 men.
Reports are that villa virtually has
Juarez surrounded at distance and
that when he is ready for the attack
troops from Palomas, northwest Of
Juarez; Villa Ahumada, southeast;
and Guadalupe and Ojinaga. east Of
the town, will be ready to cooperate
with him.
Villa told Americans arriving here
today, who passed him south Of Juarez
on his way north, that he intended
to capture Juarez and then head south
and take Chihuahua the state capital.
He declared that he had men enough
south of Chihuahua to prevent the
federals slipping from the capital or
receiving reinforcements, and that if
the Chihuahua garrison attempted to
come to the relief Of Juarez he would
meet them before they reached the
border.
Villa told the Americans he ex-
pected to eat his dinner Sunday even
ing in the custom house in Juarez.

MAKE INSISTENT DEMANDS
URGE WALL STREET FINANcIERs
TO GIVE THEM MONEY TO
STOP LEGISLATION.
A LAWYER is IMPLICATED
EDWARD LAuTERBAcH SAID TO
HAVE TRIED TO MAKE RAIL
ROAD EMPLOY HIM.

Washington, june 26. Robert s.
Loyett's> charge that men imperson-
ating members Of congress have been
making demands on Wall street fl
nanciers, has stirred congressional
circles to the depths. Lovett, chair
man of the board of the Union Pa
oifie railroad, made such charge
before the senate lobby investigation
committee last night, saying that
men impersonating themselves rep
resentatives had claimed to be able
to grease the wheels in washington
for the Union Pacific merger dissolu-
ton,
While the lobby committee was in
recess today plans for following the
tral Lovett disclosed were being
taken up by members.
Lewis Cass Ledyard, a New York
attorney who encouraged such a
congressman over the telephone
for two weeks and discovered that
he was not a congressman, probably
will be summoned. .Lovett told the
committee tiIat I.edyard had strong
circumstantial evidence as to whom
the man was. 1t is probable that Of
to H. Kahn, the banker, Maxwell
Evart, general counsel for the South
ern Pacific, and other New York men
viii be asked to testify
I,ovett's testimony dealt with al
legged effort to force the railroad to
employ Edward Lauteroach, a New
York attorney, who was claimed to
have enough influence with members
Of congress to prevent agitation
against the dissolution plan and pre-
vent reopening of the money trust in
quiry.
Mr.. Lovett testified further that
Lauterbach, in his conversation with
otto H. Kahn, had referred to Repre-
sentative Henry of Texas as one OF
the leaders Of the radical element
who might agitate certain questions
until Lauterbach exerted his influ-
ence. Lovett said he felt sure Henry
had no connection with Lauterbach.
