Fault Finding At Table

In a remarkable school for girls where the science of homemaking- not housekeeping mind you, but the bigger, more beautiful science of mak- ing a home, with all that word con- nOtes--is taught the girls are given d chance to practise the theories they learn in school. by living in groups in "home houses" managed by them selves.
 Each girl in turn holds the position of hOmemaker for the little family. There are many rules to be observed by the groups and one of the most in tercsting is this:
 If there is individual dissatisfac- ton with meals or any other part of the housekeeping, it must be expressed in private to the hom emaker. It must not be the subject of conversation at the table,
 Isn't that a fine rule?
 Wouldn't it lift burden off your hearts. homemakers everywhere, ii that rule could be put into effect in your homes?
 It Takes Mothers Appetite All Away.
 To a sensitive woman there is noth- q meal, bring it to the table and then nave it subjected to a running fire of criticism.
 Can't you get any tenderer beef than that" questions the father, ir- ritably.
 .This is the second time this week you've had carrots complains the daughter.
 "Why do you always have sour pickles?" growls the son. You know I like sweet oneS.'
 When one prepares a meal one seldom has as much relish for it as when one comes in from outside and finds it on the table. And whatever relish the housemother would have is taken away by these criticisms.

woman as fear. l faced the issue frankly. Grace Draper was much too beautiful and attractive q girl to be thrown into daily intimate companion- ship with any man. 1 felt in that moment that I hated her as much as I feared her. l lNped that it would not be her voice which I would hear over the phone. l felt that I could not bear to listen to those deep vel Eety tones of hers.
 But when I reached the drug store and entered the telephone booth, it was her voice which answered my call of Dicky's number.
 "Yes, this is MT. Graham's studio, y sbe said smoothly. No. MT. Graham is not here, he has not been since Il o'clock. Pardon me, is this not Mrs. Graham to whom I am speaking?"
 "I am Mrs Graham. yes,' I replied, trying to put a little cordiality into my voice. You are Miss Draper, are you not?'
 "Yes," she replied. MT Graham wished me to give you a message. He vas called away to conference With

one of the art editors about II o'clock He expected to lunch with him and said he might not be in the studio until quite late this afternoon"
 Have you any idea where he is lunching or where I could reach him." I asked sharply.
 "Why! no, Mrs. Graham, I have not Is there anything wrong?"
 His mother has been taken i'll and l am very much worried about her. If Mr Graham comes in or telephones will you ask him to come home at once, 'phoning me first if he will"
 "Of course I will attend to it. Is there anything else I can do?"
 "Nothing, thank you, you arc very kind," I returned, and there was gen uine warmth in my voice this time.
 For the discovery that I had been mistaken in my idea of Dicky's lunch- con engagement made me so ashamed of myself that I had no more rancor against my husbands beautiful pro- tege.
 I laughed bitterly at my own silli- ness as I turned from the telephone. While I had been tormenting myself for hours at the picture I had drawn Of Dicky and his beautiful model lunching vis-a-vis, Dicky had been keeping a prosa1c business engage ment with a man, and his model had proba bly, lunched frugally and unro- mantically on a sandwich or two brought from her home.

the stage. In the fourth and final act Miss Judlie Herne takes up the role. Claudia is eighteen years old in this act The transformation from five to eighteen years is a wonderful piece of realization inasmuch as the three leading actresses look somewhat alike. They all have beautiful blonde hair. It requires no difficult stretch of the imagination to follow the evolution of Claudia. Alfred Cross is cast in one cf the best roles given to him this sea son, the prince chap. He is the Amer ican artist abroad who adopts the little girl Miss Dora Booth Miss Winnfred Wellington, and J. Irving white have the other important roles this week, the minor parts falling to Philip Sheffield, Eugene Weber, Frank kimball, Frank Kent and a few others.

Why Madgc Felt Ashamed of Her
 Suspicious of Dicky.

l have never worked faster in my fife than when I helped my mother in-law undress before the blazing gas log, put her nightgoWn and heavy hathrobe around her and immersed ner feet in the foot bath of hot mus tnrd water which Katie had brought to me.
 But as fast as my fingers were ny ing my thoughts were hurrying even quicker. My mother-in-laW had been seized with a severe chill while We were sightseeing and I had rushed her home. She had refused to have a physician called and I was at my wits end what to do, for I knew she should have medical attention immediately
 As I worked over her 1 came to a decision. I would ger her safe and warm in bed, leave Katie within call then slip out and telephone DlckN from the neighboring drug store. l did not dare to send for physician against my mOther-in-laW, expressed prohibition On the other hand, | knew that Dicky would be very angrE If I did not send for one,
 The hot footbath and the steamlns drink which I had given her when sh'3 first came in, together With In" warmth of the gas log seemed t) make my mother-in-laW more com forta ble. As I dried her feet an' slipped them into a pair of warm Ded- room slippers she smiled down at mo.
 At least I am not cold noW,' sh" said.
 "Don't you think you had bette" come and lie down now? l asked.
 "Yes. I think it would be better she asserted. and with Katie and mo upon either side. she walked into heT room and got into bed.
 Katie on Guard.
 l slipped the bedroom slippers off, put one hot water bag to her feet and the other to her back, covered her up warmly and lowered the shade.
 EIs there anything more I can do for you:" I asked
 She shook her head and spoke with an effort. "No, thank you. not now. Have Dicky get mo some quinine when he comes in. I think I will go to sleep now and when I wake up I will have a cup of tea
 Her eyes closed imm ediately. l stood watching her breathing for two CT three minutes It was heavier. I fanCied. than normal. AS 1 went out of the room I spoke in a low tone tu Katie.
 II am going out to telephone, Katie and I want you to stay close by the door here till I return. If Mrs Graham wakes and asks for me say that ] have gone to the drug store and will be back very shortly"
 All right I not moVe," Katie as- Sured me sOlemnly. and I hurried into my hat and coat which I had slipped off while I was working over my m mother-in-law, and went out to the drug store.
 Telephone Message.
 As I descended the stairs all the doubts of the morning rushed over me. It was long after o'clock, the hour when Dicky had told Katie he would be back in the studio. When Katie had given me the message, I had jumped at the conclusion that Dicky was lunching with Grace Draper, the beautiful art student who was his model and protege.
 It was not so much anger that felt at Dickys lunching with another

She Is So Anxious To Please Everyone
 She tries to find a tender piece of beef for the complaining husband. Sne rummages the pantry for bottle of sweet pickles and explains anXiously to her daughter that the greens the vegetable man brought weren't fit to eat and she had to sub- stitutc carrots. She hardly tastes her own dinner. doesn't seem to feel much appetite. As if anyone could have an appetite in such an atmosphere of criticism.
 To set a table that will satisfy five or six different (and usually pam pered) tastes is a mighty strenuous task.
 And to do it on limited income, especially with the prevailing high prices of everything eatable, is enough to tax the resources of a home-making genius The woman who comes any where near succeeding deserves praise. not fault finding.
 It Is so Easy to Fall Into the Hab4t
 of Fault Finding.
 In many homes the fault-finding sa just habit. There is something about the act of finding fault that relieves the mind. It is pleasant to put some one in the wrong and have him apolo- gizing and explaining to you. And mothers, being the only human beings in the world who will stand patiently for that sort of thing, get ten times their share.
 Of course there are occasions when criticisms could justly be made. But if, instead of irritably blurting them out at the table, the critic would wait until he could see the homemaker in private and then make the criticism pleasantly and combine it with con structive suggestions, who would be the loser? Nobody. And everyone would gain.

AN UNLUCKY MURDERER

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
A murderer is likely to be hanged in
Kansas, notwithstanding the fact that
Kansas has specifically abolished capital
punishment. The man who is the victim
of this anomaly killed a keeper in the
United States penitentiary at Fort Leav-
enworth. The crime was committed on a
federal reservation, the criminal was tried
in a federal court, and sentenced in &C
cordance with federal law.
Kansas does not relish the prospect of
the execution. When the state abolished
capital punishment it meant that no more
men should be hanged. 1t meant, indeed,
that Kansas does not believe in hanging.
Kansas. accordingly, is endeavoring to
find some way by which the unlucky
murderer may escape the distinction of
being hanged in a non-hanging common
wealth. There are appeals and habeas
corpus proceedings on the programme
1t is also recalled that President Taft
committed the death sentence of another
Kansas murderer who happened to COM
nit his crime on federal property.
The situation is highly interesting, in
that 1t may be interpreted by some as
indicating that one state is more humane
and enlightened than the United States.
1t is probably true that the Kansas law
as to murder is more in keeping will
