HOW FRENCH WOMEN SAVE
Their Natural Tat for Economy Has
Done Much 70 Help Withstand
Hardships Of War.

The French housewife, with her na-
tive talent for economy, has saved
France up to the present time fully
MS much as have those fighting In the
trenches. Good advice has been given
to Americans, if they will only take it.
Rich women who have had many
servants now have few. Expenses are
cut all along the line. Simple meals
and simple habits replace elaborate
ones. A lady buys clothes, but Tor or
phans and refugees, not for herself.
Poor women, who must reduce sim
plicity to frugality-what do they doY
They make one sou buy two sous
worth by watching every centime.
This. for countless women In Paris,
means getting up at i've o'clock in the
morning to get cnoice of things at
the great market, Les Halles; walk
ing long distances to go where things
cost not so much as nearer home !;
walking instead of riding; keeping Wig
liant watch on the venders' carts along
the street for good values; turning
plain foods into attractive dishes by a
weIl-fiavored sauce and a garnishing
which costs nothing.
In the old residential quarters of
Paris there are hundreds of women of
ari9tocrtftic connections and moderate
means who before the war had several
servants and who ncw have none, or
perhaps one. And to women of all de-
grees Of wealth there could scarcely
be a clore interesting study than to see
how these gentlewomen and their
humble helpers give charming touch
to hard economy.
A representative household is one
where the regular income has suddenly
stopped, but leaving little more than
the small government allowance. The
ingenuity of houseSeeper and cook ac-
compIisheS wonders. In many home
butter may now b0 served once a week
and perhaps with aniy one course.
Perhaps three large strawberries
must suffice for each serving at des-
sert, but they will be served with a
grace that makes the eating of them
pretty cereshonial. If gooseberries and
curra Hts are inexpensive they viii COM

compete. Perhaps dessert will be
spoonful of jelly with simple little
cake; or perhaps dessert will give way
to cbpese, taking on a new attractive

In India and Australia a rat and
rabbit exterminator was tested sOme
time ago. It consists of an outer and
inner metal shell, like one small egg
In larger one. In the outer shell is
sulphuric acid, in the inner metal egg
Is dry cyanide of potash. The outer
shell is filled with acid and placed In
the rat hole or burrow. and all rat
holes are tightly sealed, After an hour
or so the acid eats into the cyanide
and turns loose a lot Of deadly prussic

CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-Though no Of

yet been made. IL Ii likely that the
Chicago end OF the worlds series will
be played at Charley Comiskey's South
Side Park.
Sentimental reasons might impel
Weeghman to stage the event At his
own establishment on the North Side,
but financial considerations will prob
ably lead him to accept the White
Sox's mngnates invitation to make
use OF the American League plant.
The North Side Park, originally
built to house the local Federal
League Club. il a bandbox affair.
with seating accommodations for con-
siderably less than 10000 persons
BY spreading circus seats all over
the outfield It might be possible to
handle $4,000 spectators, but there
would be no comfort for any one. and
games played under such conditions
would scarcely provide q fair test for
either contestants ability.
The South Side Park, on the other
hand, will seat more than $1,000. II
is, moreover, far easier OF access and
more desirable n many other ways.

Mrs. Claire Galligan Finney this sea-

On top of that a few days ago

which lowered her own record time
OF 81 :21 2-5. II has been the opinion

There Is no question but that Prince

Lou Doyle, District champion, will get
the benefit OF the experience Of playing
with Dumbarton's cracks. Princeton
cannot hope to win. The young players,
however, will have gotten a first-class
workout against men OF reputation and
will be gaining a whole lot OF valuable
experience.
Princeton will put Lou Doyle,
Jack Dudley, last years Junior title
holder, Ben Price, Thad Benton,

ling, boys title holder last year; A.

competition.
