New York, Dec. 4.-Theres always
two sides to every question, and when
the mistress Of a household complains
that she cannot keep a servant
something is apt to be wrong with
the complainer. A chambermaid in
one of the citys big hotels, Katie
Kast, held three positions before join
ing the STAFF of the hosiery. When
asked why she preferred working in
hotel instead of a private family,
Katie replied Because for a lot of
things. Because don't get interfered
with when | am trying to cook and
clean. Because | don't have to make
fine dishes with all the fine things
left out. Because get my work done
some time. And have a good room,
good food. good wages and good-good
times with the other girls when we
are off.
IF every woman knew cooking ant
homework and did not have so many
ornaments and such big meals and
fancy table linen and silver and cut
glass she, wouldn't need servants

LABoRER SAVES $4,000.
Tells How he Did It During Just
Twenty Years Of Married Life :.
Better Methods Now
BOUGHT HOME ON SAVINGS

A laborer in our city recently
made the last payment on his home
and now naturally feels pretty proud
of the fact. The men who worked
with him are living in rented houses
and have not dollar ahead for a
rainy day. He says any man can
do as he has done. When he got his
,$12 a week he and his wife saved
two of it and sometimes they saved
an extra quarter and sometimes they
laid aside as much as three dollars.
He says the first 800 was the hard
est to earn. After that it came
easier. In 20 years he saved over
$4,000 besides interest.
The man mentioned it because of
the advertisement now running in
the Pioneer which tells of the. saw
ings banks that are being put out
by the Northern National bank. He
says he and his wife would have saw
ed the amount sooner if they had had
one of the little banks into which
they would have dropped extra dimes
and nickles. The little banks he re-
ferred to are those being distributed
by Messrs. H. p. Erase, A. H. Schultz
E. J. Toppins, Arthur Cute and
Oschwartz, all of Milwaukee. for
the Northern National Bank. They
will visit every house in this city
and county and leave one of these
little banks and tell you a story
worthy of your attention. 80
