The Money Making Home

How do women make money at
homeG is constantly recurring ques-
tion. Some women who have tried
and failed say they know it cannot be
done, but Others prove it is done 1t is
almost impossible, however, where there
are little ones to be cared for and the
mother with children needing her care
should be free from all financial worry
of this sort. There comes a time in the
life of every woman when children are
grown, married and gone from the
home, then is the time when the eX-
perience of years may well be turned
to account. Married at twenty, chill
dren married'or gone by the time she
Is forty there stretches before the av-
erage woman twenty years more of the
three score she can claim and still be
well within the Biblical age limit
1t may not be possible to make great
sums of money in home occupations but
there Is this to consider. A little in
come in the home goes much further
than twice the amount made in the bust
ness world where there are constant
expenses to be met. ANY farmer woman
will tell you that the small sum received
for butter, eggs and poultry or from
the occasional sale of braided rug or
few pounds of carpet strips cut and
sewed for weaving, soon grows into a
nest egg of ostrich size.
Only few years ago every fair
sized town had its woman's exchange
but women became discontented be-
cause they thought the commissions
charged exorbitant. In reality, a well
conducted business of this sort offers
splendid solution for the problem of
disposing of women's homemade
articles. And what a charm there is

FIRE IN ALLENTOWN Y. n. C. A.
Gymnasium and Auditorium Are Ruined
by Flames

Allentown, Pa, Jan. 1S.-Two hours
before the place would have been
crowded for the Sunday afternoon serv-
ices, fire yesterday broke out in the au-
ditorium of the Young Men 5 Christian
Association in the heart of the city s
business section, and before the blaze
was brought under control this part of
the building was badly damaged by the
flames.
An 1S-inch fire wall separating the
auditorium from the main building
saved the latter, in WHICH were the of
fees and dormitories of the association,
the American Business College and Mer-
chants National Bank. The gymnasium
of the Y. NJ C. A. also was ruined, and
the total loss, it is estimated, will ag-
gregate S25, 200. 1t is fully insured
With great difficulty the firemen
saved the "Chroniele" and "News"
Offices and adjoining factories and bust
ness houses. Crossed electric light wires
are believed to have caused the fire.

An-ela Speaks Freely.

that she world see him at dinner He
commanded her to come to him at

In few minutes Angela came into

voice trembled as she spoke:

of Pennsylvania are visiting Sayre, Pa,
where Harold Clarey, son of Postmaster
Clarey, is suffering from a well-devel-

The physicians are unanimous in their
diagnosis and this is one of the only
two or three cases known to medical
science. The nearest case of the disease
was 40 miles away, and it is believed
the disease was contracted by eating

PARIS, Jan. 7.--Heavy fighting was
reported in progress I'm the vicinity of

made an attack in force on the Ger
man lines on the hills west Of the city
and we're reported to have made slight
gains. They are also continuing their
advance near Herzbach, having taken
a line OF outpost trenches in a series
of night assaults. The Germans are
admitted TO have regained some of the
trenches from which they were driven
last week south OF Thanh, but the
heights commanding their positions
are still held by the French.
Fighting Is also In progress In the
Argonne region, where the Germans
have undertaken series of counter
assaults In an attempt TO recover po-
sitions lost to the French. The fight
ing here is OF the most desperate ma
ture, and frequently resolves itself
into hand-to-hand combats because OF

Vera Cruz. There, the scourge OF
black small pox Is spreading.
CarranZistas here asserted that
Generals Higince Aguilar and Benja-

disorder toward the capital, and that
Yaqui Indians are In pursuit of the
troops driven into the mountains from

Wet Weather Checks
Fighting In Poland

PETROGRAD, Jan. with all ag-
gressive operations in southern Po-
land checked by unprecedented wet
weather, which has made 1t impossible
for the combatants to move their guns
or transport, the theater OF action has
been shifted TO the north. A new Rus
sian army has taken the offensive
against Mlawa on the East Prussian
front and is moving steadily against
that town. The Germans have heavily
reinforced their lines here and 1t Will
probably be a couple OF days before
this offensive materializes into real
fighting. In the preliminary skirmlsh-
ing a number of outpost positions
have been taken by the Russians.
The Turkish rout In the Caucasus
continues. The fleeing enemy Is re-
ported TO be abandoning his supplies
and his regiments are now said to be
little more than disorganized mobs
vainly fleeing for places OF safety, Inc
Turks were lured into trap. Poorly
equipped, they were led to believe
that they had defeated the Russian
advance guard and the latter skiliully
fell back on the main Russian POSI-
tions, the Turks following them.
Finally the Russian infantry withureW
and the Turks found themselves con-
fronted with strongly entrenched po-
sitions heavily armed with artillery.
BEFORE they could withdraw they were
met with an annihilating fire, while
AT the same time the Russian reserve
infantry and cavalry were hurled on
their flank.
