Americans interested in athletics, re-
turning from Japan, report that the
Japanese rapidly are assimilating Oc-
cidental sports in general, just as they
did baseball following it's Introduction
into the land of Nippon. Golf, tennis
and motoring are all gaining devotees
by the hundreds and some Of the play
ers are showing a proficiency on the
courts and links that promise to make
them formidable opponents in a few
years.

The girl worked in a five and ten

* week. Her mother took in wash
ing to help support the family-con-
sisting of two smaller children. and a
law. good for nothing father. This
man was too lazy to even look Tor

The girl needed shoes. The wrecks
she wore were falling from her feet.
To prevent picking up splinters from
the rough boards on which she stood
all day behind the counter, she pro.
tected the bottoms of her feet by in
sorting pasteboard insoles. Her eve
nings she spent with her feet in warm
water to reduce the swelling and
soothe her tired feet.
Each week she took her unopened
pay-envelope home to her mother.
Each week she was promised So with
which to buy new shoes. But there
was always need for the money she
earned to supply the family larder; to
provide beer and tobacco for her lazy
father. Just how the half-slave shop
girl finally succumbed to relentless
fate and 'sold out for pair of shoes"
is to be pictorially related in Bluebird

Geological revelation entitled "Shoes."
There s a lesson in this feature for
every father and mother who have
made themselves responsible for the
welfare of a daughter-it expounds

The Hiaeaird is here today, !,
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-02-20

drsdes in ea1Ssget5o kashion ought to have several hours to ferself in the morning after the housev-ork is done If she goes out to market before luncheon this will take part of her time, but she will have enough left to her for much in the way of sewing, reading, studying, and the like before it is season for her noon meal. If she is by herself this will be brief af- fair, although every woman should be on her guard not to slip into the habit of nourishing herself insuf7 7ciently when she eats alone.
 Often some of the preparations for din- ner can be made when luncheon is being cooked or cleared away and the woman who owns areless cooker and other labor saving appliances need not be a slave to the last meal of the day. A. large part of the afternoon should be free to her to devote to outside duties or pleas ures OF to other occupations besides houseworlk.
 The provident housekeeper will not need to wear herself out getting dinner for her small household, but can go about the task in a pretty afternoon dress which is guarded by 8 large apron. and she can present herself at the table fresh and unwearied, after little of the prac- tice which has accustomed her to taking her tasks as a matter of course.
 When dinner Is over the dishes are cleared away and if the kousekeeper thinks best she can gather them into a pan, cover them with water, throw a cloth over them, and postpone the thor ough washing up until after breakfast the next morning. This is detail which the mistress of the hone must settle for herself.
 have given thus a rough outline of duties which each one can fill in in &C., cordance with her conditions and sur roundings. l am sure some of the Cor nerites can supply valuable suggestions which I shall be glad to print for the benefit of others. Every woman who has given her mind to her work has mado discoveries which have been of value to her in managing her home and we owe it to one another to pass on these expedi~ ents to those unfamiliar with them.
 One word of advice to every Louse- keeper who is starting to do Ter own work. Spare yourself all you can. By this do not mean that you shouls. neglect your work. but that you should try to do 1t in the easiest way. Don't stand when you can sit. Get all the good labor savers you can in the house-washiny machines. fireless cookers, meat choppers electric or gas irons, gas or oil stoves, carpet sweepers, long handled mops, dustless clusters. and any other of the thousand and one Yankee inventions" so-called, which will save you effort and time. There will always be enough to do and that is poor system and worse econo- my which saves money and wears out the worker.

 The S1,000 and $500 notes issued in Montgomery in 1861 are the highest priced notes of any issued by the confederacy. That government never issued any metal lie currency for circulation, although it struck off the reverse side of four silver dollars with the obverse side of some United States coins. M. l..
 Despite the length of the letter have printed it almost entire because of the interest of the subject matter and the evil dent knowledge of the writer of the topic he treats. would advise those who write constantly asking the value of cer- tain confederate notes to cut out this letter and keep it for reference in the future. Personally l am greatly obliged to M. l.. for the information he has taken the trouble to present in such terse and interesting form.
