Boss of the Establishment
BY AMERE MAN.
"Dear," began the wife ef the Boss ot
the Establishment, with the conciliating- air
of a woman trylna- to sugar-coat bad news,
"the agent for the apartment called this
afternoon to notify the tenant that all
rents will be raised $5 a month after next
October. Don't you think we had better
move?"
"What for?" the Boss Inquired, with
lordly unconcern. "It would cost more
than $60 to move and that's what the dif
ference In rent will amount to. Besides,
the place Is worth it and the extra $5 may
get rid of the few undesirable neighbors we
have now."
The Boss' wife grasped. Whence came
this unwonted superiority to financial con
siderations, and whence the rarer social
discrimination In a man whom even his
casual acquaintances addressed familiarly
by his first name?
It was the latest of many strange symp
toms displayed by the Boss since his early
return from the office. For, at 8 o'clock he
had burst Into his hone, his face wreathed
In radiant smiles still unexplained. Mirth
battled with dignity and dignity with mirth
on the countenance which preserved usually
the classic Immobility of an Indian cigar
sign. .
To his wife It was palpably evident that
the Boss knew It all, even though a Roose
veltlan reserve. Impelled him to give no In
dication of his exuberance save that be
trayed by a grin every half minute an
nouncing that the world was bis and
Jack" Johnson's watermelon.
Just when the watermelon was to be cut
remained problematical till, following his
wife's remarks concerning their Increased
rental, the Boss said with the secretlveness
and importance of an ancient sybil:
'If things turn out as I expect they will,
I'll be $76 to the good tonight, and I'll take
you out and blow you to the finest dinner
you ever tasted."
"Really!" exclaimed the Boss' wife, de
lightedly, for she was the sort of young
person whose idea of a light repast con
sists of cold consomme, an entree, a reast,
three vegetables, a side dish of beef stew,
crackers, cheese, dessert and a liqueur.
'Yes," said the Boss, relaxing in sudden
relief to the revelation of the secret which
had swelled his bosom all afternoon,
when I picked up the pink dope sheet
this morning my eye fell straight on the
name of a horse a rank outsider named
Biff slated for the third race. I remem
bered the awful bang I got on my fore
head last night when you asked me to get
you a glass of water and I collided with
the dumbwaiter door. 'Biff! Bang!' I said
to myself, 'that's a hunch! I'll put $5 on
Biff just for luck!' And I did."
'Well," answered the Boss' wife in her1
most arctlo manner, "I thought you told
me this morning when I said I would like
$5 for my club dues that I must wait till
tomorrow because you didn't have It?"
The Boss remembered the Twelfth com
mandment, the one Invented by Mr.
Devery, to the effect .that those caught
with' the goods mustn't squeal, and he
never turned a hair. ' ,
Mahogany Furniture
Have
Given a little ordinary care, mahogany
furniture need not be "done over" in a
lifetime. 3ut, something like the human
skin, it must be kept ' from drying. Its
finish, whether it be varnish or wax, needs
applications to prevent it from drying, else
It will crack or look dull. Also, and this
seems to be understood only by those who
have given careful attention to old furni
ture, it must be kept clean. Dirt discolors
and Injures, entliely preventing that even
softness of color and surface so much to be
desired.
All mahogany once a year, or twice whenJ
It Is in constant use should be rubbed
down with pumice stone and linseed oil.
One housekeeper saves any olive oil that
may have gone rancid for this purpose, for
It acts there equally well. The pumice stone
Is to be ground fine.
To use, the surfaoe Is moistened with oil,
and then a wad of old, soft cloth Is dipped
Into the oil, then Into pumice and the piece
Is gone over with this roughened swab,
renewing the pumice and adding oil as It is
required to prevent scratching. Should the
cloth become too dry the finish would be
Injured. To get Into deep carved places a
wooden stick can be wrapped with cloth
and then dipped into the cleansing combina
tion.
This done, there should be a preparation
of one-third turpentine, one-third vinegar
and one third linseed oil. This Is to be well
shaken, and then put on as a wash, using
a cloth for the purpose. Every grain of
pumice must be taken off with this, and
the surface dried.
By that time it Is ready for.the finishing
polish, which should be a htn liquid. It
may be a temptation to use a thick one,
but be t remembered that any stickiness

'ALL RIGHT." SAID THE BOSS' WIFE,
' WHERB IS 'JUiS MUKEI.
"That's the most astonishing part of the
whole thing," he explained. "I happened
to feel in my watch pocket for a match
this morning and I found a $6 bill I had
tucked away there six months ago for
an emergency! You know, dear," he added,
diplomatically, "you're so careless about
turning my . trousers pockets Inside out
for cigarette tobacco, etc., that I have to
tuck an odd bill away somewhere to keep
the maid or the tailor from getting it."
The Boss' wife swallowed hard, though
she didn't swallow the explanation.
"Never mind, dear," she said, consol
ingly. "Of course you've lost your $5, but
I'll lend you money enought to last till
salary day." . V
"Huh," said the Boss, taking the short
est distance between the dinner table and
the hat rack. "I'm just going out to buy
an evening sporting edition. I'll be back
shortly."
So the Boss' wife settled down for a
long, solitary evening. About twelve
o'clock, she reflected, the Boss of the
Establishment would come In carrying ten
or a dozen beers and as many, excuses for
the delinquent horse. Biff.
Men were such pathetic little children,
she reflected, as she sat resignedly under
the dining room lamp and darned the Boss'
socks. i
And then the key turned in the lock of
the front door, and, starting to her feet,
she beheld the Boss; but such a secretive,,
gloomy, seemingly dejected Boss.
"Cheer up, dear," she called Impulsively.
"It's only $6. We don't care, do we?','
"Only. $5, Is It?" answered the Boss In
a strange, subdued tone. "Only $5., Then
what do you think of that?"
The Boss' wife looked up and a four
column block headline swam before her
dazzled eyes. '
"Biff wins at 20 to 1," she read, and
then after the manner of all romantlo wives
she said: ,
"All right,, where's the money?"

Most Careful Attention
becomes a center tor dirt, and In a week
the wood will look worse than before any
thing Is done.
A good polish which may be made at
home consists of an equal mixture of ben
sine, olive oil and vinegar. This is to be
applied with a soft cloth and then polished
vigorously with a dry one. This polish Is
explosive and must be kept from light and
heat. '
Few housekeepers know, but It Is a fact
that a mixture of salt and olive oil will
remove those white stains from ha,rd wood
which Is caused by hot dishes. The dry spot
Is covered thickly with salt, and as much
olive oil Is poured over as the grains will
take up. This stands over night and In the
morning the discoloration should be briskly
rubbed with the mixture, which is then
wiped off. If there is .still any trace of
stain, the application Is repeated, again
standing for hours.

Fitting Sleeve
V
To fit the sleeves of fine lingerie blouses
so that they will look neat and at the same
time feel comfortable is a difficult task,
especially when the material is very sheer.
The one seam model Is usually chosen with
the result that the sleeve Is one of two
things at the elbow either it Is tight and
uncomfortable, which of course lessens the
wear, or else It is baggy and unsightly. To
hit the happy medium first put on the waist
and then mark the wrinkles come when
the arm Is bent. At this point set in a
group of fine pin tucks, running two or
three inches on either side of the seam.
Frills of white footing for trimming sim
ple white frocks of lawn and batiste are a
pretty fashion this season. Then it stands
the laundry so well and Is so much easier
to do up than lace or embroidery that I
am sure the plain white net banding -will
become popular as a trimming both for
children's frocks and dresses for grown up
people.
A very dainty girlish looking frock Been
recently was of sheer white lawn, the skirt
covered with scant ruffles set on some In
ches apart and each one edged with a
frill of footing. The baby waist was taken
Into a square shaped band of wider foot
ing and cuffs of the same finished three
quarter sleeves.
A leghorn hat that has become soiled and
somewhat grimy from dust and perhaps a
shower can be changed Into the deep golden
shade so fashionable just now.
The trimming should be removed and the
hat subjected to a thorough scrubbing of
soap and water, adding a little ammonia.
After thoroughly rinsing, the hat should
be smoothed Into shape for drying and,
while still damp, be pressed with a hot
Iron, using a piece ot muslin under the
Iron. Lastly yellow oil paint Is mixed with
gasoline and the hat painted over with the
mixture. The straw will look like new
again.
Hemstitching makes a pretty decoration,
but Is rather tedious to do by hand.
When there is much hemstlchlng to
Items of
We hear much of the "little leaks" In
kitchen economy which make the "big
hole" In the household expenses. One of
these little things Is the mending of the
numerous articles of tinware in use in
kitchens, a simple process which Is often
attended with a great deal of Inconven
ience when the article must be sent from
home for mending, but which the cook or
housekeeper can easily 'accomplish with a
little practice.
Get a pennyworth of muriatic acid, and
put into It all the zinc It will dissolve
Scraps of sine may probably be eecured
from the oilshop. Then buy two or three
pennyworths of hard solder. Whenever a
leak makes Its appearance In any of the
tinware, scrape off any rust that may be
round it, then drop some of the acid upon
it to clean it. Cut off a piece of the solder
ing and place It upon the hole, and hold
the vessel over a burning lamp, or any
flame where the leak may be exposed to
heat until the solder melts and spreads
tnough to cover' the hole- Then remove
tnd hold In position until the solder cyols
enough to harden.
If It Is necessary to mend any part ot
the tinware that cannot bo exposed to the
flame or stove heat, have am Iron spoon in
which to melt the solder; treat the Irak
In the tame manner as to cleaning and
applying the acid; have a poker made hot
and hold It on the loak until the parts
around are heated, and thrn pour the
solder on, says Woman's Lif-

be done, as lines of tucks, hems on skirts,
etc., the work can be accomplished much
quicker and, If carefully done, quite as
effectively if the required ' number of
threads are drawn and the hem neatly
basted, the edge coming through the cen
ter of the drawn threads. The tension ot
the machine is loosened, and the hem
stitched on the very edge. When the bast
ing threads are removed the material is
held by both hands, and the body of the
garment drawn away from the hem. The
hemstlching will then look exactly like
handwork:
A simple and not at all an unpleasant
remedy for flics is sent in by an obliging
correspondent. As such Information may
be timely I gladly pass It on.. She says:
"Take common white cord and cut into
short legths. Dip these into oil of sassa
fras. Make a loop at one end and hang at
various places around the house, as upon
the chandelleres, at the windows, on the
porches and in the kitchen. The flies will
not stay where the odor of the sassafras Is
present."
Changeable ribbons - are used a very
great deal this season. Their dainty tints
seem to suggest an echo of the popular
Persian patterns. As a hat trimming, the
changeable effects are perhaps the moBt
successful, seeing that the straws are in
such a number of odd shades. To try to
match the hat and trimmings or even to
find a pleasing contrast in a ribbon of a
solid color. Is not an easy matter by any
means. Here is where the changeable rib
bon comes in.
The shades areeo varied that at least
one tone will always be found to harmon
ize with the color of the straw.
Shirtwaists of sheer batiste are to be
recommended for coolness, and some very
pretty models are to be seen made up in
this fabric. One of the most attractive, to
my thinking, is made with a yoke of fine
tucks on the shoulders, the front groups
of tucks alternating with rows of tine
beading. A wide ruffle runs down the

Our grandmothers ucd to prevent the
wearing of the bottoms of pans and ketth s

we could make our tinware last much
longer by putting legs of solder on all that
Is not to be used on the stove, All that
Is necessary Is to clean a place with the !
acid, melt some solder In a Kpoon and pour
it on slowly, letting It harden until the
little knobs or legs are large enough to iv
serviceable.
The ramie linens are having great vogue
this season. A very jaunty . looking suit
of this fabric, fitting girls from 14
to IS years of age. Is made In nat
ural white, cadet blue, rose or russet.
The skirt is a very smart model, combin
ing a panel effect and deep pleats, while
the coat is exceptionally etylish. The
closing is near the waist line. The shawl
collar and the cuffs are faced with black
moire and the long planting buttonholes
are alio of the moire silk. Fancy braid
and buttons further decorate collar, cuffs
and the patch pockets. The price is $7.j0.
One of the most effective trimmings f,r
motor bonnets and general outing hats are
ro.-en made from the straw braids that are
used for covering wire hat frames.
Very often the straw comes with a draw
string, and when this Is so all that it, neces
sary Is to draw up the straw Into a frill
like strand and etw It round In rosette
fashion.
Another pretty way of using the straw Is
to roll short lengths Into rose buds and

waists of batiste to choose from at this,
sum, for there are a number, '
For a $5 bill It Is possible to buy a
smart and thoroughly practical bathing
suit that will give good service all the
season. 1 y
There are a variety of designs to choose
from at "this price, and one ot the most
attractive is of black or blue mohair, made
to fit the figure, In princess style by means
of deep pleats. The skirt is trimmed above
the hem with a band of black and white
checked gingham. The peck' Is trimmed
in a fancy effect with the same fabric and
the puff sleeves are finished with bands ot
the check.
Quite a few . amateur dressmakers find
the correct setting on of the collar band
the most difficult detail In making a shirt
waist. The sheer fabrics have such a way
of stretching that when the collar la to
be sewn on it is often found to be a little
short. The best plan is to whip the cut
edge directly as It comes from the scissors.
However, when the waist Is too long for
the collar the latter must never be
stretched to meet It.
The collar In fact should be a trtf.'X'
longer of the two. There Is nothing to' Br"
done but to sew the back of the waist to
the collarband and take off any surplus
material at the shoulder seam. -
A Jar filled with very finely powdered
bath brick is a handy thing to have on a
shelf near to the sink, because when stains
on dishes, fine enamel ware, etc., refuse
to move by the ordinary means of soap
and water they will usually disappear after
an application of the bath brick.
A large cork Is Just dampened, then
dipped into the dry bath brick and applied?
to the stain. A little rubbing will Insure
satisfactory results.
then form a number of them Into clusters.
When there is no draw string the brafB
should be dampened and a strong linen
threud used for gathering. '
