Box =" /

HANDKERCHIEF boxes are lovely
when they have q liberal amount
of your favorite sachet sprinkled into
their silk Innings. Pity it's It's true. that
this delightful odor loses strength. and
one often is obliged to rip the entire
sachet apart TO supply the sweet
scent. The following suggestion for a
practical sachet box obviates all this
annoyance: -.
The shirred silk lining contains mar
row. but deep. pockets, one on each Of
the four sides, into which the sachets
Of white muslin are slipped They can
in this way be easily renewed at will.
and as the little bags are made Of such
inexpensive material there is no re-
greet about throwing them away.
To insure even a more lasting per-
fume TO the box the one in question
was made from a sweet grass basket.
Nothing could be nicer for q simple
Christmas Offering than this box.

A MESSAGE TO THIN,
WEAK, SCRAWNY FOLKS
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 lbs. Of
Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh.

Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say,
81 can't understand why do not get
fat. / eat pIenty Of good, nourishing
food" The reason is just this: You
cannot get fat, no matter how much
you eat, unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat making elements
OF your food instead of passing them
out through the body as waste.
What is needed is means OF gent
" urging the assimilative function OF
the stomach and intestines to absorb
the oils and fats and hand them over
to the blood, where they may reach
the starved, shrunken, rundown It's
sues and build them up. The thin
persons body is like dry sponge
eager and hungry for the fatty mate
rails Of which it is being deprived by
the failure of the alimentary canal to.
take them from the food. The best
way to overcome this sinful waste Of
flesh building elements and to stop
the leakage of fats is to use Sar
gol, the recently discovered regenera-
tive force that is recommended
so highly by physicians here
and abroad. Take a little Sar-
gol tablet with every meal and
notice how quickly your cheeks
fill out ard rolls Of firm, healthy flesh
are deposited over your body, cover
ing each bony angle and projecting
point.
!. Caution: while Sargol has produc-
ed remarkable results in overcoming
nervous dyspepsia and general stom-
ach troubles, it should not be taken
unless you are willing TO gain ten
pounds or more, for 1t is a wonderful
|flesh-builder. For sale By Benson,

LITTLE REPAIRS

A door is banged back with the key

that, get two cents worth of plaster

paper or tint 1t over. For the latter
the paints In child's box would do
quite WELL
IN many houses there are often left
odd lengths Of wall paper, and these
should be carefully preserved. Dam
age may be done when moving in or
later q chair may get pushed roughly
against the wall and there is bad
tear.
Get a piece of the paper, scallop the
edges quite roughly and paste it over
the place. The mend viii be unnotice-
able. But, If the house is not new and
the paper Is faded, the contrast is
startling. In that case, put apiece of
the spare wallpaper; out Of doors in the
sun for two or three days, dampening
Il occasionally.
Dents in furniture can be mended
quite easily. Dampen the dent with
warm water, then make a pad of
brown paper, six inches square, wet
that thoroughly, lay it on the dent and
hold over all hot iron. The warmth
makes the wood swell up and al the

slow but it is sure.

recipes for cold sweet dishes:

pounds of apples and cook them with a

manage public stenographer's Office,
with salary and commission.
In Business for tierself.
She soon learned that the man who
furnished the money for the business
had no following, as he was stranger
in the city, and il there was any work
to be done she would have to find it.
In a short time she had let all of her
own and her fathers business &C.
Lquaintances. know of her work and it
was but a few weeks before she had to
move the office from the little back
room which they had rented to much
larger and better quarters, where more
machines were installed. At the end
of four months the 10 per cent. com.
missions were mounting up so fast
that the owner of the business object
ed to paying them and wanted a
change in remuneration. This plucky
girl adjusted the matter by resigning.
She rented another Office, paid enough
down on two typewriters and a mimeo-
graph to secure the use of them and
started as she did four months before,
with the exception that she had some
valuable experience and the new bust
ness belonged to herself. Within two
years she was clearing $1,000, and
before six years had passed her an
nnal profits were $500. She owned
five typewriters, mimeograph, rented
extra ones when they were needed and
frequently employed 90 girls to do the
work. ~
Big Orders Were Sought.
When asked to tell the secret of her
success, she said: From the first /
went out for big things. L gave the
small jobs the same attention when
they came that gave to the large
ones, but it was the latter that work
ed to get registered at the city hall
as a corporation and by advertising as
such gave people to understand that

BLACK WAisTs NOW.

A 8 a refreshing change from white
waists, the black lace waist,
usually in chantilly, is made over. flesh
color or white lining. which will give
equally good service with a newer
style. They are just as suited as white
waists for wear with = suit of any
color. There II I great variety OF
styles in these waists, some having the

In the drawing room she remembers
that she is a woman and may expect
faEors and difference from men, but
in the Office she meets them on the
same footing strictly business and
must expect and give the same treat
ment that one man would give to an
other"
After stopping for moment she con-
tinued thoughtfully, There is one
thing more which believe the BUSH
ness woman should remember, and
that is that the time has come when
women as well as men have important
civic duties which should not be for
gotten or shirked, for, as they do their
duty by others, it will react to their
advantage in many ways, not the least
of which is the enlarging Of their cir
Gle of acquaintance in the work OF
public stenographer.'

it was regular business firm and not
just some woman who had rented desk
room in an Office. To the one who Is
thinking of establishing her own bust
ness cannot emphasize too strongly
the advantage of doing so on BUSH
nesslike basis. using her own letter
and billheads and going after the big
jobs.
my method of securing business
was perhaps little out of the ordi-
nary, for never resorted to soliciting
it by going from one Office to another
and presenting my card, as is frequent
" done. Instead, sent out letters to
well-known firms, and one of the best
methods was watching the newspapers
to know about all the conventions
which were to meet, then quoting
prices for the kind of work which
they would need.
Another feature of my work, she
continued enthusiastically, was the
training of stenographers for all lines
of business by giving them a broad vo-
cabulary, and ] carried on regular
summer campaign for furnishing sub
stitutes during vacation time. The
word efficiency had not been worn
out then, and applied all the best
methods that | could discover to bring
out the best work in the shortest time
by doing away with all unnecessary ex-
ertion, and there was abundant proof
of success with those | employed
Special Ability Needed.
In summarizing, this woman, who
has wrung prosperity and gain from
the business world, gave as her opinion
the special abillty needed for the work
of a public stenographer to be first
executive abihty, then fairly wide
experience in professional and NOR
camille business, not as stenographer
but general, and If she IS not an ex-
pert writer herself to have sufficient
knowledge of stenography to establish
standards Of value and know the
grades of work Theorizing will not
do, for no one can be Judge of good
work unless she has learned the funda-
mentals.
ITO make a success she declared,
"a woman cannot play the business
and feminine game at the same time.
