way twice in succession.
_ are others who. while they
.get into definite habits. also get out
'of them often enough for their own
benefit. To which class do sou

 

.belong?
Get In. Then Get Out.

Of course. it is very important to

get into habits-but it is just as
11mportant to get out of them also.
i Dress habits are always interest-
fingwand sometimes amusing. Unc
fwomun Who has hrrnngcd her hair
Iexaetly the same way for many
are-hrs has an exact system for put-
'ting in the pins when she puts it
up. First a. largo pin to hold it in
place in the back. Then a pin to
fasten this loop at the left side. and
then another to fasten a loop at the
right. Two pins at the top. two at
the bottom-rand so on until she has
‘used exactly fifteen hu'ge pins and
six little ones. Some people take
l'eal- pleasure in having regular
methods of attack in eating break-
fast. First they unfold their napkin.
then take a. little drink of water.
next break a. piece of bread or a
roll. and so on till they have in-
dulged in the last taste of the sec-
ond cup of coffee.

The housewife's habits of work
depend. of course, on her house. her
equipment and the personnel of her
household. “'hen she moves she
has to install an entire new set of
habits. If there are children, the
habits must be altered somewhat
:when schools open after vacation.
A new baby in the household hes e.
happy faculty of changing every
one‘s habits. Perhaps no one event
can more completely stir up an ac-
cumulation of personal and house-
hold. habits than the arrival of a
baby.

Of course, in the family where
there are no movinzs. no new
babies. few changes of any sort. it
is the easiest thing in the world to
have one's habits become almost
permanently established. But re-
imember that it is not wise to stick
to any set of habits too long. Be-
fore very long you follow a. certain
method or procedure. not because
you know it is the best and sim-
plest and pleasanest way of} doing
certain things, but” because it has
become second nature to you. It is
then that you ought deliberately to
take a hammer. figuratively speak-
ing. sud smash up your habits. If
you have alwsys got out of bed on
the left side. try getting out on the

sht; if you have always washed
the right side of your face first. try
washing it on the left. If youbsvc
always taken in the milk bottlés the
first thing when you go downstairs
in the morning. and the put the
teakettle on, try putting the tea-
kettle on first and then getting in

'the milk.
' cheeses Are Tonic.

The fact is that changes of habit
are very tonic—they are actually
beneficial .to our physical condi-
tions. One reason why travel and
going ewsy are often advised by
doctors. is: not only because a

Characters”

“ VOID taking characters by
A telephone," ,sal‘s the writer
of an article on the manage-
ment of'servunts in a recent issue
of an English woman's magazine.
"Taking characters." you may not
know, is getting reference of a ser—
vant who applies to you for a
position.

This writer makes it clear that it.
is a. bad. idea to transact this im-
portant business over the tele-
phone and then proceeds to give in-'
structlon as to how to go about
writing to n former employer for
the "character" desired.

"Mrs. So-ancLSo prcdents her
compliments to Mrs. Dash and
would be much obliged if Mrs. Dash
would tell her if Louisa Smith (who
has referred Mrs. So-and-So to Mrs.
Dash for a character) is correct in
saying that she lived with Mrs.
Dash and left on—and left be-
cause — \Vuuld Mrs. Dash say if
she found Louisa Smith honest.
sober. respectable, clean in work
and person.' pleasant and willing
both toers. Dash and to her fellow
servants? (Then follow special in-
quiries as to Louisa Smith's powers
as a. cook. nurse. etc.) Mrs. So-and-
Sowould be obliged if Mrs. Dash
would tell her if she thinks Louisa
Smith a. suitable servant for Mrs.
So-and-So's situationuthreo in
family, four sen’ents. good cooking
required."

What American housewife would
dare take the time to send a. letter
for Louise's references? She would
tactfully hint try-Louisa. that Just as
a matter of fo she would like to
know for whom it a has worked be-
fore. and then with the utmost in-
genuity she would detain Louise.
while she hastened to the telephone

to get Mrs. Dash. "Hello, Mrs.
Dash," she would say. “You don't
know me. I'm Mrs. So-end-So.

Louisa Smith who says she worked
for you is considering a. position
with me. Is she honest and reason-
ably decent? I can't expect much
more. And do you think she'll stay
if we are kind to her?"

 

 

whose husband's business mskes it
necessary for her to move frequent-
ly—snd to go to outlandish parts
of the earth with him. keeping
house in new and difficult. surround~
lugs. ' You wonder how she man-
stalk-how she brings up her chi.-
dren—how she adapts herself——
while it is all you can do to keep
house and bring up your children
properly here where you have every-
thing always the same. . ,
The fact is that there is some:
thing ealubrlous about the more
change. Plants. you know, do b'ét-
ter if they are transplanted two or
three times. sad it is always our-
prising to see how well they gut.
vive rather rough treatment at the
time of transplanting. .

If There Is Such Women Nowe-
days. But Who's Seen Her?

 

{IERE wee s. time when lots of
women complained of being too
thin. Nowadays the .averase

of womanly size is much smaller.
but we seldom bear complaints
about being too thin. Clothes de-
mand thinness-therefore we ere
thin. And happy to boot. We don't
mind going without sweets and
fresh bread and potatoes if only we
can keep our figures so straight end
almost as narrow as lead pencils.

Still. occasion-.113; there is, even
now. a. women too thin. A woman

have not yet acquired a. liking for
the looks of bony arms and skinny

usually has skinny arms.

The first thing for the too thin
woman to do is to consult a physi-
cian. If there is something wrons
he cen diagnose the trouble and
probably help her to remedy it.

— But even if there is nothing
wrong she can herself do a greet

She should spend more time in

rest end mutation.
~ She should exercise gently until

She should spend much time out

If possible. she should rest out of
doors part of each day-in the win-
ter wrapped warmly in e steamer

You can do needle in
tapestry work without match tum?
ins, bounce the shops sell pieces
partly done. Enough of the pattern
is worked out on the canvas so thet
you can follow for the rest. All
colors ere lndicsted, and part of
each section of the work is done.

So. if you went to. you can do I.

and two steals. Or one piece. it

The finer petlt point is more d1!!!-
cut to do. unless y0u are on ex.
pert noedlewomnn. Indeed. some of
the most effective pieces ere done
under a. magnifying aha—must be.
so fine is the pattern and so tiny
the stitches. You can buy squares
of this finer work for forty or fifty
dollars. squares big enough to cover
a tire screen or a. smell cushion.

All this work must. obviously. be
done on a frame.
that stands on the door or screws
to a table is but. though for the
very small pieces band ken-nee my
be used. As the thread must be put
through and back with distinct mo-

In some of this tapestry work a.
reel cross-stitch is used. In some
of it. lengthwise threads are run in.
and then fastened down by a one-
way diagonal stitch—half a cross
stitch. The coarseness of the canvas
02' course depends on the fineness
of the pattern to be worked.

The colors used in tspeetry work
maybe chosen so that really been-
tlful color effects result. Don't be
satisfied with the harsher, crm‘ler
colors—unless indeed. you really ilk.
them.

salt pork or two tablespoons olive
oil or butter. Add to the tomatoes
four whole cloves. a lump of sugar.
salt and paprika or cayenne to

two minutes. i

 

FOR RISING BREAD.

Do not cover rising breed in
bowl: and tins with a dry cloth.
instead. cover with a damp cloth
which has been wrung out in warm
water. In cold weather the damp
cloth should be placed over a dry
cloth. As a result the dough will
not dry on the top. and theflloeves
when baked will be much more

uniform. . \.

 

STUFFED TOMATOES.

Remove seeds and pulp from six
skinned tomatoes sud set upside
down to drain in the “refrigerstor.
Now peel and slice one cucumber
and pour over it one teaspoon of
