SERVANT: GIRL PROBLEM.
Nienncse Housewives Having Peck of
 Trouble During Cleaning Time.

Vienna, April 29.-So many women and girls have gone to work in fac tories and stores, that Viennese house. wives are in despair over the problem of finding domestic help-wages have risen to double and treble the former rates, but still it is impossible to find servants. The supply from the coun- try district has ceased almost entirely as the women are required at home to work on. the land.
 Ordinary women cooks in middle class families, earning in ordinary times from eight to ten dollars q month now demand thirty dollars and even more. And quite often they re- fuse to wash dishes so that a "Bedien- erin' or outside charwoman must be engaged too. Chambermaids and waitresses now ask twelve dollars q month where formerly they were glad to work for five or six dollars, with ten. And "Maedchen fuer Alles' Or quite young and untrained girls for general work enable to cook potatoes even ask for six dollars a month il stead of three.

TWO FEATURES AT
 KEENEY'S TONIGHT

Essanay's big four feature, Captain links of The Horse Marines and Marry Fuller in the Red Feather att traction, "Thrown To The Lions," will be the chief attractions at keeney's tonight. These leaders are two of the most attractive photo-plays that have been shown during the week. They made a most favorable impress sion last night and this afternoon and it is expected that 8 capacity house will be the rule tonight. The films cov- CT five reels each and there are some intensely dramatic moments as we'll as humorous situations while the stories are being unravelled on the screen.
 Keeney's is now offering thirty-six reels of pictures every day in addi- tion to three high class vaudeville specialties. The releases of the coun- tries leading film makers are booked for the local playhouse and there are at least two big features daily. The stars of the screen world are in the companies which appear on the cur tain and there is not single picture of mediocre quality in the list of at fractions.
 Leading the vaudeville actors, who will conclude their New Britain en- agreements tonight are Mccarthy and Stirk, a pair of live entertainers. This team has a novel song and converse ton speciality in which they introduce a number of new ideas. They are we'll worth seeing.
 The Lorenz trio entertains with acrobatic feats and the Doria troupe pleases with a repertory of interna- tiOnal songs.

Keeping Ever ybody Happy
{ CkKa2Oll

find a crevice to lodge a complaint in, just trying to please everyone's taste at the table, just trying to harmopizc a family of strongly individual per sonalities, to convince a father that his son is not extravagant, and a son that his father is not stingy, to keep a maid good tempered when the fam fly are late to meals, or bear the brunt of the family i'll temper when a meal is late in appearing-just these and a hundred similar details of adjustment help use up the aver age homemaker's nervous force.
 Every Mother An Adjustment
 Bureau
 And in many cases she manages all this under the constant strain of the fear of being scolded. Every mother is an adjustment bureau of domestic complaints. The woman at the ad- justment bureau in the big shop has no sinecure of a position but she does not have the same nervous strain. To be sure, people are sometimes cross to her, but it doesn't matter so much, be- cause they are not the people she cares about. At the mothers adjustment bureau on the other hand, the com plaints are all from those she loves the best and whose disapproval hurts her the most And mothers, some how, never get used to being scolded, which, as I have remarked before, is incomprehensible because they get so much practice in endurance.
 The epitaph over many a tired little mother who folds her weary hands and succumbs to some minor disease might well be:
 She gave daily of her vitality to oil the machinery of family life, and had none left to save herself in the time of need"

 Miss Galloway has had a very busy season, having been in six different productions and in each case she haS been engaged until the close From what she said this morning 1t would seem that MT.

 "Too bad you aren't going there now,' I said
 She gave herself a little shake of distaste. Far from it, she said. Tt gives me tired-out feeling just to think of it.'
 I could scarcely believe my ears.
 The house at NJ had been a beautiful cottage in a lovely situation. It did not seem possible to me that anyone could have helped enjoying it. I said as much.

and aided materially in arousing and
in the state n love OF tenn,

will efrectuate Temperance. We re-
affirm past utterancess of tho republi.
lean party upon prohibition, which has
become the settled policy OF this state.
and declare that there should be no
backward step thereon. We believe
the people of the state should have q
fright to pass upon the question OF con.

that the next legislature will submit
to the people the proposed prohlbitory
amendment approved by the fhlrty.
sixth general assembly. We stand for
1.-THE vigorous enforcement of all laws
and unequivocally; pledge our candi'
dates to that policy.
This plank pledges the republican
candidates for governor, lieutenant
governor. attorney general and the
rest of the state Offices to recognition
Of prohibition as the settled policy Of
Iowa. 1t pledges all republican can,
dates for the legislature to support
of the resolution resubmitting the pro.

candidates for governor
and attorney general, the latter more
particularly, to use all machinery
within their control for the strict en-
Fforcement of the prohibitory law.
The republican, platform leaves
nothing in debate as to prohibition
It treats the issue as settlad, With the
