London has elaborated the trade
school idea to include the work Of out
fitting women with an equipment to
face life's struggle In the six trade
schools of London, four OF which are
under the direct control of the London
county council, and two of which are
connected with the polytechnic insti-
tutious, aided by grants from the Lon
don county council various trades of
the traditional feminist classes, such
as drosamaking, ladies tailoring, cor
sot making, millinery, embroidery,
waistcOat making, cooking, laundry
work and upholstery, are being taught
In addition to competent teachers
these schools have enlisted in their
interest advisory committees Of em-
ployees of the classes of workwomen
being developed by the schools, one
result of which is that employment
at profitable wages awaits the capable
students of these schools. The voca-
tional school idea is spreading and eX-
tending through the civilized world,
with the result that it brightens the
prospects of youth and heartens young
people with the knowledge that they

SHELVES USEFUL AND CHEAP.

Have you enough book cases?
Is your pantry conveniently ar
ranged?
Have you room enough for your
linen supplies and your clothes?
I II you haven't enough room for al
most anything. why not have some
shelves put up in convenient places
to give you more room? A carpenter
will put them up at reasonable
price, far more reasonable than the
price of new book cases or new
clothes closets or new linen chests.
, One clever woman who had only q
small pantry between the dining room
and kitchen found that she had not
enough room for household supplies
Of various sorts One wall Of the pam
try was filled with a china closet
with cupboards beneath-all right so
far as it went. In the other wall was
window. The woman in question
asked a carpenter to build a shelf
under the window and another one
on level with the sill and still an
other at the top of the window. Along
one side. where there was a foot OF
small space. she had foot-long shelves
placed the height of the window.
On the lowest shelf she kept ham
mer and boxes of tacks, hatchet gar
den trowel and scissors, the husher
for the dining room table, and all
sorts Of cleaning implements and pol
ishing oils. The shelf at the level Of
the window sill proved very desirable
for holding dishes ready for the table
plates of salad or the dessert-the
crumb plate. finger bowls and such
things. The shelf over the window held
the bread mixer, the preserving ket-
ties. and various things that were
needed only occasionally. The little
shelves at the side Of the window
held flower vases, asbestos mats for
the table, and various other small ar
ticIes.
Book shelves can be put up in any
available wall space at really slight
cost, and II you wish to save all pos
sible expense you can paint or stain
them yourself. Two coats of white
inside paint and one of enamel will
give a good finish or one coat of fiat
finish stain can be used. Be sure to
let each coat of paint dry thoroughly
before adding another.
Shelves can be put up in the bath
room for holding linen and an unused
clothes closet can be filled with
shelves to hold any sort Of household
supplies-canned fruit, bedding or
clothes packed away for the winter.
