MANAGING T HENHOUSE MAID

There are mistresses and mistresses Just
as there are many maids cf many minds
and If there Is to be harmony In the
household there must be an understanding
Having chosen a trained servant, and
presupposing. In the heart-to-heart . talk
wtlh her before she was engaged, that she
hus been made fully aware In a general
way of what la expected of her, It la unfair
and not at all a test of her capabilities to
hamper her with commands to do her work
In "your way."
If you find her broiling the steak for
dinner In the oven when yotr have 'been In
.he habit of using the top of the stove, d i
ot reprimand her: wait for reaults. The
steak. .may, be" Just as good or. better than
If done the other way. "What she -accom-pllahes

her own.
A great many housekeepers are alto

Ideas. They get Into ruts and stsy there
If a maid Is to take a real Interest in her
work she must be allowed and encouraged
to use progressive methods; she cannot be
blamed if she refuses to carry out many

REDUCING FLESH UNDER CHIN
Method hr Whlek It Mar Be Safely

.
No ons need hesitate 1n undertaking to
reduce the flesh under the chin. It Is not
a difficult process at alii but must be
done very carefully In order not to leave
the akin In a loose, flabby condition, which
la really more annoying than flesh. Bathe
ln bot water for several minutes, holding
hot compresses to the flesh. Touch tbe
ringers to cold cream and roll a little of
the flesh at a time between them. Work
In this manner for ten or fifteen minutes. have never found anything that gave as good

until dry, and finish "by spenglng with
spirits of camphor. Do this once a day
and apply skin tonic and cold water at
least three times a day. This will keep
the flesh firm.
MR. G0SLINGJS ADVENTURES
lie Offers Sent to a Woman In an
Klevated Car Unexpected
Outcome.
"This," said Mr: Oosligton.- "I confess
Is rather puzzling to me, but I am Inclined
to think that I get left inlt.
"The elevated car In which I rode home
late yesterday afternoon was as usual, at
that hour crowded, and so, as usual I
hung on by a strap. But a few stations
along the man In front of me of whom I
had been standing got up and went out,
leaving a vacant seat, which of course I
might have taken, but which I did not take,
for a step or two further back In
the car there was standing, ' holding on by
a strap, a young woman talking with a
young man who was standing near her,
holding on by the next strap.
"What I did was to Indicate to this young
woman that here was a seat for her, at
which she turned a stepped across the
car, as I supposed, to occupy the seat that
I had thus left for her. But Just what
she did was this:
"Sitting down on one side of this seat, she
edged along a little further on that' side,
thus making her next neighbor there, a
woman, move along a little, and thus pro
viding half the seat vacant, and now she
Invited'the young man with whom she had
been talking to sit down beside her, which
he did, all this leaving me to stand there,
completely Ignored, In front of them.
"Sitting down as she did she discommoded
the person, the woman sitting next to her,
and crowding In to sit beside he, as he had
to do, tbe young man with her di ommoded
the person sitting next to him. Thus this
lady would appear to have proceeded when
her opportunity came with entire disregard
of everybody, but herself, seeking with
utter selfishness solely her own comfort
and pleasure, or so we might have thought.
If It. were possible to think ill of any
woman, which I do not; but while the
situation was a little puzzling, it certainly
did seem as If she had sort of made a gump
of me, don't you think?"
TRIFLES IN VANITY BOXES
Gold, Sliver and Enamel Cases Haas;
on Chains from the '
' Waist.
Gold or silver card cases and purres hung
on a short wrist chain will be lnegeneri.1
vogue this year. The shops are full of
ihcm and also of the gold and sliver van
'ty cases that had such popularity last
year. , , . . . .
In general, all three show similarity In
"tyle nn.l make, but in many models the
special use usserts Itself unmistakably. The
'-lld purses are among, the newest. ..They
open with stem or spring clasps. In the
buttcn of the 4 spring clasp a large semi
precious store Is set. Acid work is much
lifted to decorate silver purses.
Many. of the vanity cases are plainly 'ap
propriate only for thelr special purpose.

The. newest thing of . all in purse, card

striped, In two nhades of old blue, trans
parent eraniel. The covers of. another are
striped in broad bands of polished silver

For tiio most part all thesi gold or sil
ver purnts tind cases are hung upon short
wrist chulns; but they can be suspended
upon long neck chains If preferred. As
they pre expensive, mai y women will carry
on their wrist chains or.e of the new little
silver or gold tags that have come from
Frence for tho purpose. They are about
as big en a 5-cent piece and bear .th-J
name and address of tlio owner.
TAKING CARE OF THE HANDS
Oatmeal in Said to Be One of
Simplest and Moat Sooth
the
ing- Remedies.
A little attention will keep even "house
worked hands" In very presentable condi
tio'!. The best and simplest aid to this
end la oatmeal. Make a amall cheesecloth
bag and put In a little oatmeal; use this
for wathlng the hands at night and when
ever a thorough washing is desired. After
washing the hands dust with a little dry
oatmeal.
Hands that are Inclined to thinness are
soldom attractive. Nothing is better to
make the hands plum than olive oil. Hold
the hands In very warm water for a few
minutes, and dry carefully. Pour a little
oil In the palm of the hand and rub It
thoroughly Into all parts of the hand. Use
as much oil as the hands will absorb. Do
not wash the hands for a least an hour
after this treatment; or it may be used at
night and left on till morning.
Flve-Mlnnt Cake.
To make a fine loaf cake In five minutes
get a large wooden spoon and a rough
glazed earthen pot, cr, it possible, one
called .'French pot, costing 10 cents, In
which to cream your butter and 'sugar.
This Is the secret of cake making and
can be done In two to five minutes with
the above utensils. "I challenge any plain
cake recipe with the following," says the
author: "One and one-half cups of granu
lated sugar, quarter pound butter, three
or four eggs, two cups of flour, two tea
spoonfuls ot baking powder, one teaspoon
ful of vanilla extract."
Croup Attacks Young; Children la
All Countries.
There is probably no country on tbe glob
which does not know the disastrous results
of croup. Mothers of small children, whether
la the isles of the South Sea or in tbe froxen
region of the north, are always on tbe alert
for the first symptom of this dangerous mal
ady, which is sure to bring destruction unless
proper attention is given to the little safierer.
The following letter from tioulh Africa shoes
that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which is
so extensively need in the United (states, is
also a favorite medicine for croup in that
country. It is fast supplanting other reme
dies in many parts of the world, whererer it
baa been used, aad all uneasiness snay be
avoided by theanxioos mother if this remedy
Is kepi at hand. Mr. Frits Everitt, msiia-
fer of a general store for U. B Jerdine, at

Congh Remedy very often -with sny three

SPECIAL TRAItf TO B CHAPTERED
Illinois Grata Dealers'. Associativa
Cones with them on December
Fifteen, Which Is Grain
Dealers' Day.
Five hundred of the liveliest cltlsens of
the lively city of Chicago are coming to
the National Corn exposition In a body.
Chicago's famous Board of Trade will have
a generous representation In this city on
Grain Dealers' day, December IS. Uniting
with the Illinois Grain Dealers' association.
It will charter a special train for tho trip.
Final arrangemsnts regarding the excur
sion of these exceedingly live wires whose
presence will be noticeable even among the
thousands snd thousands of strangers In
the city at the time were made In Chicago
by officers of the Illinois Dealers' associa
tion. President' E. V. Wayne of Delavon
and Secretary E, W. Strong of Pontlac, who
conferred with ' officials ot the Chicago
Board of Trado relative to the Joint trip.
Further evidence of the Interest gra n men
are taking comes In the visit here of George
A. Wells of Des Moines, secretary of the
Western Grain Dealers'" sssoclatlon, who
came to make further plans for co-operation
and to placo an order for a $1,000
trophy.
Highest Priced Prise.
A unique feature of the premium list Is
announced. This Is the Port Huron shred
der, valued at I960 and Is the most valua
ble single' premium offered. The farmer
displaying the best sixty ears of corn gets
this prise about which there Is enough In
terest to make It the most desirable of all,
aside from Its Intrinsic ' value. It Is the
latest achievement In the lino of farm
machinery and up to now considered one of
the most dangerous. ' The Port Huron
company has expended $80,000 to eliminate
the clement of hasard and in the manufac
ture of a self-feeder It claims to have
been successful.
Since a farmer can husk from fifteen to
twenty acres ot corn In a day and at the
same timo shred the stalks for food or
husk 1,000 bushels of corn In a ten-hour
day, It Is believed this will " prove to be
one of the most attention exciting prizes
offered.
It Is announced that the special program
of days and events and entertainments for
the exposition will be ready for publication
Thursday. .

OFFICIALS VISIT DEER PARK
Cpunctlmen aad Park. Commissioners
Consider Best Steps to Be
Taken.
V ...
The twelve members of the city council
and the five members of the Board of Park
Commissioners visited Deer park Wednes
day morning and looked over the location
of the proposed grade through the park
on Sixteenth street In an endeavor to come
to some conclusion as to what had best
be done. Property owners in the vicinity
of the park petitioned for the building of
tho grade and the council ordered the
work done. Park Commissioner Cornish,
later got this Order rescinded for the rea
son that the building ot a grade twenty
five feet high would practically causa the
demolition of the park, making of It noth
ing but a couple of mud holes. The situa
tion was gone over carefully by the two
municipal organisations and President Ed
P. Berryman of the park board aays he
believes an amicable arrangement can be
effected whereby the property owners will
be satisfied and the pat-k saved as well.

VISITING IS NOT RESIDING
Woman Who Comes to See Friends
Fails te ' Secnre Iter
Divorce.
Visiting friends here docs not establish a
residence- for the purpose of securing a
divorce, according to a ruling of Judge
Kennedy In the divorce suit of May Mile
stone against Hairy Milestone.
Mrs. Milestone came to Omaha from
Msmphis last March te visit a friend. When
shs got ready to go home her husband
refused to send her . money and finally
wrote a mutual friend that he was through
with her. After she bad been In Omaha
a little more than six months she started
sut for divorce. Judge Kennedy held that
her residence began In Omaha not while
sho was visiting her friends, but after she
had formed the purpose of living here and
started to work. This made nor residence
here less than six months before the suit
was filed and Judge Kennedy dismissed
the case.
FT. MEADE NEEDS NEW WATER
More Adequate Supply Is Demanded
for Purpoaes of the
Army.
A serious condition Is reported from Fort
Meade, 8. D., where nearly doo men of
the Fourth United States cavalry, with
considerable number of civilian employes of
the government, are quartered. In regard to
the water supply for the pe""t- The ques
tion has resolved Itsolf Into one of two
propositions that must be settled speedily
snd that Is an immediate remedy of the
conditions or the abandonment of the post.
The drinking and culinary water supply
for the post Is derived from the water
system of the town of Sturgls, two and a
half miles distant and Is pumped through
the water pipes. The requirements of the
post are for 300.000 gallons dally, but about
October 1 of the present year the water
was shut off between tho town and fort
and now the supply of drinking water has
to be hauled from a hydrant In the town
of Sturgls, the supply being limited to
2,4tiO gallons dally or In four loads of 600
gallons each and this limited supply must
be husbanded closely.
The' water supply for the stables and
other purposes Is now obtained from a
well about thirty feet distant from'
a temporary reservoir built by dammln
the creek that runs past the post. It la
Into this creek that the sewage from the
town of Sturgis Is dumped, the creek flow
ing from Sturgls to the fort. Some dis
tance from the town the creek sinks and
the bed Is dry for 100 or 200 yards and then
the water ooses. out again Into the crack
bed a short distance above Fort Meade.
While no sickness of any consequence
has thus far prevailed at Fort Meade, sev
eral cases of typhoid fever exist In the
town of Sturgls. The fear of infection has
caused the War department to Investigate
the water supply conditions at Fort Meade
and to that end Lieutenant Colonel Wil
liam B. Davis, chief surgeon of the De
partment of the Missouri, was recently sent
to Fort Meade.
Colonel Davis found the conditions to be
practically as stated and made his report
accordingly, which has been sent to Wash
ington.
About the only way out of the dilemma
for the government Is either to build Its
own water supply system by artesian well
or to pipe the water for the post from
Dead Man's gulch, about five miles from
the fort. Both of these propositions will
Involve a considerable expenditure of time,
aand time Just now is very precious, and
something will have to be done at once.
Colonel Davis has recommended the Im
mediate building of an open air distilling
plant at the post, the water supply being
obtained from the creek or well now In
operation there for the stables and washing
purposes.
