Less Time In The kitehes.


II used TO be considered a mark
of good hoysewifery TO spend the
greater part OF each day In the
kitchen. But now capable house
keepers and home managers are
distinguished by the short length
OF time they spend In actual kitchen
work. True household efficiency
~ recognized in the ability TO set
the best results with the least
amount of cnervsting work.
Do not pride yourself on the
length OF time you spend in tbs
kitchen. Be ashamed Of II, rather.
II II mounts too nigh. For the
duties OF the modern housekeeper
are much broader than merely cook
ing and keeping the house clean.
Plan your days for more time out
of the kitchen.

B OOKS

THE THCNDERBoLT. BY G. Colmore.
New York: Thomas Seltzer.
Beginning slowly and, on the
whole. meticulously, this truly
dreadful tale ends with all the rush
of Shakespearean tragedy, the stage
covered with dead and dying, the
audience aghast in fright. Not
that the pages of this book have
their dead and dying-far from
that. But they have the same ef-
feet on the reader.
The picture of Mrs. Bonham. So
ciety leader in a small English
town, is marvelously exact, almost
tiresomely exact to the average
reader. But her Importance in the
story gradually gives way to that
of Dorrie. her daughter, and of
Hannah, the nurse. 1t is doubtful
If Hannah's like exists in the aver
age present day tale. She is
classic.
1t would be unfair TO give more
than an inkling of the plot, for
the plot Is the story. Suffice be II
to say that the stupendous, rushing
end to this story makes one forget
the slow, dragging start With the
appearance of the dreadful Herr
Reisen and his experiment, one can
not lay this book aside. 1t is fin
ished then with gasping breath.
The author Is wen equipped with
knowledge of life in an English
town. He uses il admirably to form
a background for a wonderful de-
scription OF honest womanhood in
Hannah, the nurse, and OF sweet in
nocence in Dorrie Bonham.

"we all stood up and cheered for
her and MI. Anderson. who Was
away, and the supe erintendent OF
the grounds. and the stable men
who used us so white. and the boys
who led the horses we rode, and our
super and his assistants, and a lot
of other people. Then Mitch. shook
hands with Mrs. Anderson and said,
In behalf of my boys, | want to
thank you for the delightful time
you have given them and his as

the same thing, and we all marched

and the sea, and at different times
usually when the crimson rambler
roses are in bloom and overrun the
balustrsdes-we have thrown ii
open TO the public for purposes OF
charity. Once a Persian pageant
was given on the place, arranged
by Joseph Lindon Smith, when
Orientals on Arabian horses roamed
across the hill, while groups in gay
turbans and huge trousers stopped
and posed among the big willows
that surround the little pond down
by the amphitheater. Another time
he gave a fairy play on RATS and
boats on the water, which reflected
all the color and movement OF the
actors, the audience watching the
hA tVLT tai N
bridge. Miss Charlotte Porter also
arranged a most enchanting scene
on the beach by the pond. Among
huge pink and white shells. under
soft gray moss trailing from the
branches, dryads and water nymphs
sang and danced to far-away
strange music that was waited on
tho wind and seemed to sigh through
the trees.
shall never forget an incident
that occurred the afternoon when
this play was having its dress re-
hearsal 1t had been a peculiarly
difficult day, for several members
OF Japanese mission had arrived
for luncheon, and as L.. was in
town, had to entertain them alone,
which was not easy because they
spoke very little English. After
wards, when we went out into the
Italian garden, l.. appeared on the
scene with some Chinese gentlemen
whom he had met in the city and
brought out for tea. At that time

from the water garden at the foot

and diaphanous robes, with bare
arms and legs and flying hair.

guests from the Far East think of
that? To tell the truth. / never

Why Is A Dogs Nose Cold?

AS in the case of almost every
other thing IN the world. there are
two explanations for the cold nose
OF a dog. One is scientific; tho
other is NEUROLOGICAL. 1t used to
be believed that when Noah was
experimenting the embarkation OF
the animals in the ark he was com
PEELED to get the help of dog to
aid him in driving the more trouble
some animals In. The dog con-
sequently was the very last to enter,
and there was. so little room left
that he was compelled to make the
voyage in the doorway with his
nose sticking outside in the deluge.
Science, however. merely explains
the phenomenon by the statement
that the dog depends upon his sense
Of smell, and In order that that fac
ulty may be kept keen and sharp.
the nose must be moist all the time.
As the moisture continually evar-
crates, the nose feels cold TO the
touch.
