TOPICS OF INTEREST TO THE FEMININE MIND
—FASHIONS—'FANCIES—HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Inconveniences of the Woman Who Gees Away
For the Sumrnsr
N planning tor their summer trip and Sfter'i'll‘they ari°not the'’reoDl!l
to bo envied, They have many things to contend wl"h in getting
ready to go—In the first place, there are the dressmakers you have to tro
Tnd SO to get the proper m, or your clothes will not l”k as wen as Jlfs
So and Bos, probably your worst enemy, and of course such a thing would
spoil your ®" d JJ*J e ”“ rl| y you* - husband and children’s, for
no woman who Is not satisfied with her clothes could possibly be agreeable.
And hats! Oh, hats are terrible things to select at any time of the year.
Then there are the children; they require so many clothes and at most
summer resorts laundry Is at a premium.
Of course all this applies only to the great class of people In moderate
^cumatance*.
After you arrive at your destination there are numerous other troubles.
Perhaps the nights are so warm you can not sleep or the place Is so. Infested
with mosquitoes that death would bo a relief. You have to stay dressed all
day and simply molt and smile while you lose playing bridge with a lot of
women who have no other object In life, except to talk about each other.
If you havo nny attention from the few uninteresting men generally
found at such places, the women talk about you so badly and tell so many
stories on you that by the time you come home you are worn out and
exhausted from the strenuous summer, and In all probability you will have
to spend six weeks In a hospital for nervous prostration.
And a woman with children at a resort—heaven help her, for nobody
else will! It is all very well to think or know that your children are the Very
smartest and best In the world, but bo sure you keep It to yourself—nothing
so infuriates a person In summer as to hear about the virtues of a lot of
children who nro the very pests of the place, noisy, quarrelsome, disagree*
able, disobedient and oven dirty. If you play cards they stay around and
look over your shoulder or In the afternoon when you are so tired and a few
minutes* sleep would so refresh you, they are playing Just undef your win.
dow. By the time the shades of night are falling they are ill crying either
from hunger or because thoy are sleepy.
Strange to say, tho mother of the chlldVen Is seldom, If ever, disturbed
by the agonizing noises of her offspring. Very few women who have chil
dren with them at a summer resort have any pleasure or friends either.
ADVANTAGES OF HOME.
~\Ve will see if tho woman of moderate means who stays at home does
not have the advantage of her slater who goes awav. In the first place
she does not have to be so particular or fastidious nbout her clothes and
she can wear a loose, cool kimono all day if she so wishes.
The best way to be happy and spend a pleasant summer at home Is to
take life easy and only do the things that you like to do. Of course this
sounds almost imppsslble, but every one should do Just as she pleases for
a week or two—It would be such a rest and relaxation.
The house should be as comfortable as possible; that Is, all the draper
ies should be taken down and In their place thin, dainty lawn curtains
hung on tha windows. The ruga should b« done away with, leaving the
matting.
The porch or veranda, where you spend moat of your time, must be
Ideal. It ahould be Inclosed by wire screens and If the sun shines directly on
It, awnings should by all means be used. A long, broad swing filled with
downy cushions, a lounge or couch and a few comfortable rocking chairs,
go to make a delightful retreat, where a game of cards can be played
without any annoyances, or you can 11a down and while away the hours
with a good book.
Then there are the electric cars on which you can ride for miles
through the country or you can spend your afternoons or evenings at tha
country clubs and the week-ends at the summer resorts near the city.
Your expenses for the summer will be considerably smaller than those of
the woman who goes away and your health and peace of mind, as well as
your happiness, will be far greater than If you spent the time at some coun
try- town or summer hotel.

WOMAN'S GRIEF.

"But we mads the tiest of It," he said
of, a tampan mishap. "We were like the
Gloversville widow.
"This woman's husband, a glove finisher,

How to Clean Dark Silks.

Cure for a Felon.
Mix well one teaspoonful of burnt salt,
oss teaspoonfnl of Indian meal, the yolk
of one egg, ten drops of spirits of tur
pentine, u small quantity of home made
lye soap, shaved fine. Apply as a poul
tice for twenty-four hours. If applied
early, It will certainly effect .a cure.
For Fruit Jars.
Who among us has not encountered
the glass fruit Jar, which, on account of
a seam or ridge on the rtm. could not
be sealed? Wrenching and twisting were
of no avail, and the hot Juice would pour
out from the edge of the cap. Here Is a
sure cure. Take a common file (a dis
carded one of any kind will do), snd
simply file off that glass ridge or seam.
It Is easily done.
Hot and Cold Wattr Rules.
For fresh meat- use hot water; for salt
meat, cold water; soup bone, cold water
(boll fast); meat stew, hot water (boll
fast. then slowly); beans, cold water;
cniiii »i ••-ii • a
whole, hot water.
Flower Hints.
One who raises flowers often wishes
leaf mould, but does not know where to
find It. One of the best places la In the
woods where ferns grow luxuriantly.
There you will find a nlsck soft earth—
usnnlly only s shallow deposit of It, but
rich and mellow. It Is, of course, the
best soil in which to grow house ferns.
It is also fine for begonias and the yel
low oxulia. Flower pots that have been
used should be cleaned before reusing.
Bomb with a stiff brush In hot, stroug
soap sods.
A Preventive of Ants.
Mix equal parts of tartar emetic and
sugar, and pnt It on Individual butter
plates; then slightly moisten and put It
where the snta moat congregate. The
ants will disappear. If they return after
a abort Interval, repeat the direction
and yoa will have no further trouble to
