WHAT A GIRL'S
CLOTHES TELL
ABOUT HER
i
In an article on "A Girl and Her
Clothes," published In the March Wo
man's Home Companion, apears the
following:
J "You may not speak a word to me,
P but the manner and line of you the
gentle or brusque, gracious or awk
ward little trlckg of body, tho way
you walk, tho hat you wear, the
clothes, tho gloves, the color and
fashion of them the manner of wear
ing them all these along with the
look In your eyes, aro expressing you
and are saying to me: 'Sho belongs
to this class, or that.' 'She Is this
manner of porson, or that.' 'Seo, sho
Is carcles.' 'See, she Is tired and
worn. 'She Is a person of good Judg
ment', or whimsical; dependable,
a person of lovollness;' unlovellness;
of taBtc, or lack of taste. Don't you
understand what wo are saying to
you? Theso things seem to say: Look
at usl Read usl As plain as day!
"Whether wo realize It or not wo are
perpetually expressing ourselves and
our clothes speak for us condemn
us or recommend us, pralso us or
blame us, as plainly as though they
spoko with voices like our own. I
have seen girls apply to business
houses, seeking positions, and I havo
seen them refused good positions
and they never guessed the reason.
Some of them brought with them rea
sonably good lottetrs of recommenda
tion saying perhaps that they wero
capable, willing. But of what avail
was that when all the while, huge
masses of yellow puffs, dowdy
, clothes, low nocked shirtwaists and
tawdry imitation Jewelry, badly cho
sen and designed, wero saying as
plain as could be, 'She has no Judg
ment. Sho does not know truo values.
She is frivolous. Could you trust a
girl to bo careful of your accounts
who Is so evidently careless of her
her own?
"Then the kind bcartcdness of the
employer, perhaps hesitates. After
all, might she not do, this llttlo girl
making a pitiful enough showing as
sho sits waiting for an answer? Isn't
It right to glvo her a chanco any
way?
. jgX "Well, I've told you tho truth, the
' r"'J puffs seem to say, you can heed It or
not as you choose, that Is your af
fair. You wouldn't bo advised by mo
the hugo hat speaks, looking a llttlo
Insulting; don't blame me, I gave you
fair notice I And tho Jingling bangles
and mock silver purso and the vanity
box clank a little fretfully as tho girl
rises. It's no fault of ours If your
business Is neglected I Don't blame
usl Wo warned youl they scorn to
say."
A MODERN BARN
The Fra
A hundred years ago, a barn of
any kind that was Bhelter for an ant
. mal, and kept It from freezing was
a good barn. Milk that sustained life
was all that was required. Milk was
milk. Those who bad It to uso were
' nourished. The rest were haf starv
ed. The cattle were sheltered tn Au
gean stables, but there was no Her
cules to cleanso them. Cows stood
kneo deep in barn litter.
Cattlo wero shut Into a stable, dark
jj and unventllatcd. Doors were closed
II and fastened. The llttlo openings
which were called by graco "win-
H dows" had no glass in them. No sun
II light ever canio Into tho stable. A
II wide open bucket was used to milk
I In, and tho restless, unhappy cow
I had tho freedom of hor untidy tall.
I The milk was often set on a sholt In
I the stablo behind the cows, until It
I was convenient to tako It Into the
I liouso. Now, when wo aro demanding
better food In order to nourish bet
ter people, we require sanitary
barns. Wo Insist upon pure milk,
and in order to havo It wo build hy
gienic barns, groat, big, roomy barns,
automatically ventllutcd, wboro tho
fresh air Is pouring down in front
of the cows all of the time, tho bad
a'r ,B PerP'ua"y drawn out from
- pI3 tD0 floor B0 tnnt the cows aro breath
B Ing puro air. .
I We are giving our most caroful at-
M tentlon to tho food that wo glvo tho
flj , cows. A balanced ration, clean whole
i some, ap'potlzlng, Is furnished. Not
I long ago a breakfast food was ad-
I vortlsed in this way: "Tell mo what
D you eat and I will tell you what you
H think." This Is not a discussion to
H provo whether this Is truo or not,
n but men who tako care of cows
II know that tho milk shows what tho
If cows cat. Mon of sclenco havo
ffj spent much tlmo and thought on tho
H question of diet for milch cows,
I Thero aro as many balanced rations
l for cows offered on the market as
there are breakfast foods for human
beings. Men aro aa caroful In select
ing what thoy shall fetd their cattle
as they are tn giving medicines to
them.
No matter what the farmer may
have for his dinner, or how It Is
cooked, ho Insists that what the cows
are fed shall bo clean, wholesome,
appetizing. Ho talks fluently of ton
ic qualities and lacteal producing
grains. He Is discriminating with re
gal d to ensilage, harvesting his corn
crop raoro carefully than his garden
products. On the merits of clover
and alfalfa, compared with timothy
and straw, ho Is well Informed.
The cattlo give a quick response
which bo can lnderstaud and thought
ho Is dull with regard hU own care
and uls and family's food, he pro
vides well for bis stock.
Fresh air, good, puro food, fresh
water these nre necessary requisites
for good cowb and good milk. The
stable must oo made of cement, met
al and glass. Tbo paint must ue
washed and sterilized, and parts ot
tbo stable must be whlto washed fre
quently. The sunlight must shltio up
on the cows whenever there Is sun
shine. The litter must bo collect
ed and carried out frequently car
ried at least a hundred feet from the,
barn. Tho cows must be curried,
and brushed, washed, and always
treated with kindness. Tbo men who
do the milking must bu clothed In
whlto and must bo clean. Tho milk
must bo taken from tho cow to a
room where no pollution can enter,
and bo kept from contamination from
the time It Is curried Into this mlik
room. Milk suffers contamination
sooner than any other food. Direct
consumption was nature's plan for
milk. It Is not u food which was in
tended for transportation.
So when wo tako advantage of tho
cow's maternal Instinct, and pervert
its uso to our own selfish purposes,
wo are doing an unnatural thing.
Ono must bo vory clever to outwit
nature, so pure milk Is ruro. Every
pitcher ot cream and glass of milk
on your table that Is palatablo and
dollclous has been handled with care
and produced with great pains.
We are not only applying Intelli
gent labor to land, but to all land
animals, their food, their care, their
homo.
Ceanllncss may be second to god
liness for men but I am uro that
for cows, cleanliness comes first.
MOTHER OF
MOTHER'S DAY
Mother's day will bo celebrated
this year on Sunday May 11. Follow
ing Is a llttlo account ot It and of Its
originator, taken from the March
Woman's Homo Companion:
"Tho second Sunday In May Mo
thers' Day will bo celebrated for tho
fourth time, and the whlto carna
tions symbolizing tho purity of moth
er love, will be worn by thousands in

Six years ago, while Miss Anna Jar
vis was commemorating the death of
her own mother on tho second Sun
day In May, It occurred to her that
the day, falling as It does In a sea
son ot blue sky and blossoms, may
well be set aside as an annual festi
val upon which duo tribute ot affec
tion and remembrance should be ren
dered to all mothers. Though natur
ally a modest and retiring llttlo per

so eloquently with leading clergymen
financiers, and public officials that on
May 10, 1910, Mothers' Day was col
obratcd not only in Philadelphia, her

THE DRINKER
AND THE
JjRUNKARD
'llieie Is ii stgnltlcaul distinction
drawn by Dr. Aked In his discussion
of "Unrlstlamty and Temperance' in
Appleton's Mngnzlm tho (tidtliiotlon
between urluKiug and drunkenness.
'Hie evlle ot drunkenness are no
torious, he says. Nobody denies
tnem. Few people seek to mliiimlzo
them. And nobody on the face ot toe
earth defends drunkenness. And yet
one tho whole view, It seems certain
tnat the harm done by tho drinking
which nover passes into drunkenness
Is greater tbau that caused by all
the drunkenness tn tho world. This
Is not tho same thing as saying as
temperance advocates arc often ac
cused cl saying that t&e moderate
drinker 1b a worse man than tho
drunkard. It la a simple statement
of fact that In bulk the Injury dono
by the constant use of alcoholic liq
uors lu quantities Insulllclent to cre
ate drunkenness Is greater mid more
widespread than tho more patent and
demonstrable harm dono by alcoholic
excess. Drunkenness has stained
some of the noblest names, destroyed
some of the finest Intellects, ruined
some of the bravest souls of pulpit
and pew. The priest and prophet
havu erred through Btroiig drink. All
this Is known, ludlsptuubie. But
there Is something more. Every man
or woman famillur with the work of
tho churches bus pondered, some
times almost In the agony ot spirit,
tho problem presented by the mass
of smug, callous Indifference whlcn
no preaching or pleading can pierce.
The preacher with his heart aflame
making himself ono with his Re
deemer In the effort to seek and save
tho lost, receiving branded upon his
soul tho stigmata ot Christ, sees in
his congregation and lu tho circle of
his friends such easy, such compla
cent Indifference to human sin and
human suffering ao comes near to
making shipwreck of his faith In man
and In tbo power of God to savo man
iroin Himself. Is mere not u cuusef
U'no habitual uso of intoxicating
u-.iik in quantities wiilch never go
beyond wbut lu called "moderation,"
which hag never caused drunkenness,
una wnich probably nover will, cro
nies more tliuu anything else with
which wo have to do tho typo of
character so hard to movo. Tho as
pirations have been a. llttlo dulled,
tuu conscience mado a llttlo less sen
sitive, tho emotions a llttlo less re
sponsive by the dally uso of a drug,
a drug called "alcohol." Would any
reasonable human being ask tho most
eloquent of living preachers to speak
his messago to a number ot persons
who hud been drugged Into insensi
bility by chloroform? Would a reas
onable person expect tho best result
from preaching to peoplo who had
been chloroformed Into soml-lnsousl-bllity?
Wny make people dull and
heavy and, stupid, and expect swift
responsiveness, generous ardor, warm
hearted zeal 7 It is nly a question ot
degree. The drink habp as practiced
among really nice people, good men
and good women, people who have
never been what is called the
"worse" tor drink and who nover
will be, has a certain physiological
effect, and that effect is demonstrat
ed In the lndlfforenco found among
ten thousand congregations through
out tho land. It Is not drunkenness
which Is the preacher's deadliest en
emy; it Is drinking. Exchange

There Is a cemont gun which Is used
to apply a mortar covorlng to struc
tural steel work. A mtxturo ot dry
saud and cement Is shot from a noi
tlo by compressed air. A socond hoso
delivers to tho same nozzle a supply
of water under pressuro, and tho mtx
turo of sand, cement and water It
shot out with a velocity ot about 3S0
foct a second. Tho nozzlo Is nrrangod
to produce a thorough wotting ot tho

How the Eiffel Tower Moves.
That tho Eiffel Tower moves dally

long been beyond doubt. Apart from

movements wero a mere matter of
conjecture until M. Gulllaumo under
took to Investigate thorn. Ho shows
that the great Iron structure may vary
nn Inch In height every day. The ole
vation or depression Is not equally dis
tributed, as only ono of Its sides may
bo affected by the rtso or tall of tho
temperature, and thus tho tower may
bo compared to a person shitting his
