Woman's Desk Equipment.

Whether a woman works in an office
or manages house she needs well

rather odd that she SO seldom has well

easily done IL she has the proper imple-
ments Of it always at hand. Moreover.
she takes much greater interest In her
work IL she may do it with the right
equipment.
Any business woman should put a little
money into the buying Of things to make
her desk comfortable. IL the office where
In she works furnishes blotters and pens
and pencils, she must needs be content
with them or else go to unnecessary ex-
pense. Since blue blotters are almost in
variably used in Offices. she must prob
ably have a blue blotter. So. If she is
going to work out a color scheme she had
probably better have 1t worked out in
blue unless she wishes to buy her own
blotter.
Every woman in Office should have
folding hanger on which to hang her
coat. This can be collapsed and put in q
| desk drawer when 1t is not in use. A
| clothes brush of some kind Is essential
| for neatness. The fiat sort Of brush that
| comes in a little leather case is the most
