Women In the Field of Labor.

If by chance a woman does not be-
come a homemaker, but enters q bust
ness pursuit, she meets unusual diff
Guilty. The man has been in business
for generations; the woman Is q new
conner. Some employments are closed
to her, either because they require the
great physical strength or endurance,
or because conventional considerations
forbid. Americans look with disap-
prevail upon women working in the
fields, as they do In foreign countries;
and yet there Is much field work that
is more interesting, more wholesome
and much more suitable than some
of the work that American women are
allowed to do-such, for example, as
they do in laundries and in factories.
Not only are women considered as
invaders In mems fields, but also they
suffer because men, invading fields
once considered strictly feminine, are
becoming dressmakers, cooks, laundry
managers and clerks. Moreover. for
the same work women received lower
pay than men. Do not those difficult
ties constitute a compelling appeal to
give women In their schooling every
possible equipment for SUGGEST

trees, shrubs, flowers and grass all
have q place.
The illustrations will serve to sug-
gest a moderate artistic treatment of
the bungalow idea where there Is suf-
ficient lawn space to form an effective
background for the novel building.
This bungalow could hardly be beauti-
full If built on a small lot, closely
flanked with buildings and erected too
near the highway or street. Given the
proper setting, 1t is decidedly beautiful
in it's outline, color scheme and gen.
eral appearance.
The building carries q low gable roof
with rafter and purlin decorations.
The sides of the house are made of
stucco up to the bottoms of the win
dOws, from which point the remainder
of the surface is finished with stained
shingles. The most attractive fea-
ture of the exterior is the large per-
COLA porch. There is a novel, artistic
and decorative value possessed by a
pergola, properly designed and placed
and hastily arranged with flowers and
vines. For this s. the pergola
around the front of this home creates
the idea Of warmth, comfort and cozi-
ness which is one of the Characters
tics of the properly designed bunga-
low. Some people find objection to the
pergola because 1t loses its service
ability In rainy weather. There is no
reason why the pergola cannot be built
to overcome this objection. Panels of
wire glass may be fitted above and
between the pergola beams In such a

NEW METALS BEING SOUGHT
Manufacturers Looking for Substitutes
for Those Now Used, Because of
Advance In Prices.

The recent advance in price of many
of the more commonly used metals has
led manufacturers to adopt or consider
the adoption of various substitute
metals 'Or alloys for certain purposes.
The advice Of the bureau Of standards
has frequently been sought I'm this con
nection. An interesting field of inves-
tigation is opened up by such inquiries.
1t appears that the metals tradition
ally and currently used for various
articles are in many cases no better
adapted for the purpose than others,
and a slight difference in price would
warrant a substitution. 1t Is not usu-
ally possible, however, to suggest sub
stitutes offhand, as there are many
factors involving manufacturing pecu-
liarities, durability and other physical
and chemical properties that first have
to be determined. "There u.s." says the
bureau, "a very wide field Of research

himself. An element which ternpers
beauty in architecture is serviceability.
This element is largely responsible for
the difference in opinions between peo-
pie as to what is really beautiful and
what is not. This practical element Is
also the influence which places beauty
In architecture on q different basis
from beauty in music or painting.
There may be beauty in a simple lit
tie house just as thoroughly as there
is beauty In a mansion. The smallest
of houses in the two-story type are
usually beautiful In their simplicity.
Some Of the lergest houses are beauti-
full in their dignity. The bungalow
type of house may be beautiful be-
cause of its simplicity or because of
its clever ornamentation, and Il is,
therefore, In somewhat Of a distinctive
class in regard to this quality.
The lawn surrounding q house Is, of
course, a strong factor in building up
the appearance Of the picture. Unfor-
tunately, this factor cannot have the
weight it rightly deserves in a great
many cases because of the limitations
of q thickly settled community. There
are locations where land values are not
excessive, and in such places the lawn
is a most effective means Of empha-
sizing the beauty Of a well-designed
house. Here, again, the bungalow type
Of construction has a distinctive place,
since by suitably altering its archi-
tectural treatment a harmonious effect
may be produced where the lawn is
almost anything from simply a grass

Psychology and the War.

Prof. G. Stanley Hall of the Clark
university, United States, places the
subject of applied psychology on a
high plane In relation to the war. He
states: !
whatever system has been en-
ployed, ii is evident that applied
psychology has produced results In
this war which ii was never possible
to attain before. Men have endured
more, they have shown more heroiSm
and daring and have submitted to
more punishment than In any pre-
vious war. No such slaughter would
have been. possible In former wars
without provoking n panic. This has
un~questionably been due to the sys-
tenn of psychological selection, not
only for the various grades of service
but for special activities within each
grade. Our country may as well think
Of going to war without irst-class mil
itary equipment as without a knowl-
edge of applied psychology. The
Gil of national defense seems to have
recog. lied this and the National Re-
search council within that body will, I
understand, contain representative
psychologists"

The value Of beauty In the home Is

WHERE CARLETON IS BURIED
American Tourist Discovers Tomb OF
Dashins Officer Who Won Fame
In Revolution.

What became of Major Tarleton aft
er the Battle of Yorktown? Except
for a very few people, says A. G..
Bradley in the Nation, everyone in
England has forgotten the very name
of the young cavalry leader. But many
persons In America must have Won
dered what became of the dashing SOL
der, and how 1t happened that in the
long years of war that shook England
and Europe his name never once APP
peared.
When Mr.. Bradley, In a leisure hour,
entered the fine old fourteenth century
village church at Leintwardine, in
Herefordshire, he did not think that
the bare, unseated chapel promised
much of interest; indeed, he was just
turning away when in a far corner and
partly concealed by ladders, buckets,
planks and other articles necessary to
the cleaning of the church, he caught
sight Of a lofty mural monument. The
lettering on 1t ran as follows:
"Near this place are deposited the
mortal remains of Sir Banastre Tarle-
ton-Baronet General In the Army
Knight Grand Cross of the Order of
the Bath, Governor of Berwick-on-
Tweed, Colonel of the Gallant 9Th
Hussars-He represented his native
town of Liverpool for seven Sessions
and closed his distinguished career in
this place Jan. %, 1888"
In 179S Tarleton was sent to Portu-
gal, but was very soon recalled ut his
own request, and with that exception
he never saw a shot fired after York
town or served anywhere abroad, al
though England was constantly fight
ing until Waterloo. He got promoted
regularly, however, for he stood well
at court and was a member of the
prince Of Wales circle.
Tarleton belonged neither to the no
bility nor to the landed gentry. He
was the o of a Liverpool merchant,
an unusual origin at that time for a
dashing cavalry officer and the best
horseman, according to good authority,
in the British army. He had entered
oxford and had studied to become a
barrister, but gave up classics and the
law for soldering and a commission
at twenty-one years of age. He had n
genius for the training of men and
officers and for rapid and successful
strokes.
On returning from America, how
ever, he turned from soldering to poll
tics; he lost no time in entering the
house of commons, and sat for his
native city Of Liverpool for 20 years.
He became a major general in 1894, a
lieutenant general in 1901, a full gen.
eral in 1912, q baronet in 1915 and a
G.. G. B. in 1920. He also held the
full colonelcy of several cavalry regi-
ments in succession and was for some
years governor of Berwick. He ap-
parently retired with his wife to
Leintwardone for the last years of
his life, lived there quietly and did not
mix with the neighboring county fam
lilies.
The ~seclusion Of his gorgeous tomb,
behind the cobwebs of q disused aisle,
gives q final touch of mystery to the
romance that early associations with
Virginia have connected with Tarle-
tons name.-Youth's Companion.

The Reichsrath a Babel.

That parliament Of Babel, the
reichsrath, now engaged in playing an
obscure part in the Austro-Hungarian
peace hunt, is permitted to express it's
emotions in eight official languages
symbolic of the war of tongues raging
In the empire itself. In the great vocal
chorus the Slavonian may be said to
have struck the strident top note, for
the very word he has coined for HIM
self expresses the belief that no man
is a talker except himself. "Slowan,"
in Old Slovenian, meant Ito speak"
and as the Slav understood no other
speech, the others were naturally the

War Spirit Contagious.

Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree was
more than once placed in a perplex-
ing position by the loss of members
of his east during his tour through
out Canada and the United States.
No less than ten members enlisted,
including two ladies for service in
war hospitals. One humorous Incl
dent occurred after the engagement
of a deputy" in the United States.
She was not very much interested in
the war prior to her appointment,
but the talk behind the scene among
the company bore SO frequently on
the loss of relatives at the front that
she felt one night impelled to volun-
teer as a nurse, was eventually ac-
cepted, and her place had to be filed.
