This la such a moot question that it Is

ever, for clipping, it may be done by
one's self, whereas some one else must be
'employed to singe it. Very few are the
amateurs who eau singe the hair success
fully without danger to the patient.
As to when either is to be done, I can
only say that spilt ends whenever they
are found to exist, are to be removed, and

Old-fashioned women used to Say to
young men: "Don't marry a girl who
doesn't know how to blush."
A sober man may brag of his winnings,
but the gambler who says much about his
losses Is either drunk or crazy.
Women say that when a young couple
marry they should cars more for each
other as they grow older. That's theory;
fact Is different
Every year you hear of things that went
on behind your back last year that would
have greatly displeased you had you known
of It at the time.
Tou haven't one chance In a thousand of
finding a gold mine; but. If you are Indus
trious, honest and faithful, the chances axe
ninety-nine in a hundred that you will suc
ceed. Poo Robinson, town drunkard, is not the
meanest man in town, by a long shot. The
meanest and most troublesome man In
town Is always sober In order to think up
new ways of being disagreeable.
If you get more pay than ths man who
works with you, you must do more work.
Kmployers don't pay for good looks. An
other thing, employers appreciate clean
work work that no one Is compelled to d

Captain Maud' Only Woman
Pilot, Has Signed on a Mate
"Captain Maud," t lie only woutan ever
licensed by the federal' authorities to act
aa a pilot In New York harbor and the
adjacent rivers, is today voyaging over
strange seas. Forsaking the tugboat, the
Major Vhlrioh, which, as Miss Amelia K.
Jensen, she navigated for her father dur
ing the tatter's Illness of two years, she
has embarked upon matrimonial so as. Her
"mate" on the passage la Mr. Oustave
Uubitg. On the trip they are now mak
ing to Bermuda, he la pilot as well as
mate, for aba says her license as a navi
gator does not extend to the high seas.
The marriage of ''Captain Maud" and
Mr. OubiU took place at her home. No. 406
Fifty-fifth street. Bay Ridge. The cere
mony was performed by the Rev. It. C. A.
Myers, of St. Jacob's German Lutheran
church. From the name that she signed
to the marriage license, none except her
intimate friends and the privileged few
who stood iu the pilot house of the Major
Uhlrlch when her pilot's certificate was
framed there, would have recognized the
bride, for when she was a tug skipper she
was always known only as "Captain
Maud."
Her debut as a pilot came because of
stern necessity. Five years ago her father,
the late Captain Julius Jensen, widely
known among seafaring men, was stricken
111. It was imperative that the tugboat
should continue to be operated. Bo the
daughter stepped Into the breach. Her
father's only daughter, she had been his
constant companion on board the craft, as
well as during the brief intervals when
he was at home.
Winning his reluctant consent, Miss Jen
sen quickly added to her practical knowl
ede to enable her to pass with flying colors
the regular examination for a harbor pilot.
She was the first woman to be so equipped.
During the next two years "Captain
Maud." as ah was known to her crew and
those with whom she did a towboat busi
ness, commanded ths Major Uhlrlch. Men
who know ths difficulties of handling a
tugboat In tha harbor and rivers during
fog and snow, by day and by night, cay

a pair, and are admirable for sweeping or

Rubber gloves arc valuable at times, but
unless a woman puts bar bands Into dirty
water, as when scrubbing kettles or the
floor, I think they are not needed. But
on such occasions and when putting the
bands Into rreasy water that la pene

before pulling on rubber gloves the hands

Madame Osakl, wife of the mayor of
Toklo, Japan, who is visiting New York
with her husband, is quoted as saying that
she does not believe In woman suffrage,
"because It Is a woman's place to remain
at home and take care of her family." due
also says that she has "been away from
her own horns since May 10, making a
trip around ths world, and will not re
turn horn for some time."
"It will be noticed," remarks Mrs. Ida
lusted Harper, "that the great majority
of the anti-suffragists who are announc
ing from the housetops that a woman's
place is at bonio, are themselves away
from home when they make this state
