So runs a J a definition In a standard dic tionary. Who but women should be concern ed In domestic affairs? Well, they are. The number of women employ ed by the Department of the Interior of the United States Is one proof of It. Neither did they secure positions Just because they were women. The Civil Bervlco Commission don't work that way. One woman won her place In open competitive examination away from SOO men; another dis tanced 120 men. What domestic affairs do they handle? All sorts of things-Indian lands, public records, patents, rural schools In fact, almost any of Uncle Sam's odd Jobs requiring specialized training. If a woman speaks ten languages, in which ono of those does she do most of her thinking? That Is a question that can bo answered only by Miss Nannie Kuhlmann, transla tor of the Patent Office. Not only does she speak English, but French, German, Spanish. Portuguese, Italian. Dutch, Russian, Polish, and Bohe mian as well. Just as though these weren't enough, she has qualified as translator of Hungarian, Norwegian, and Swedish. Miss Kuhlmann's history of service to the United States In the Patent Office has a prologue. Back In the clghteen-nlnetles she came to America as a teacher from Germany, her blrthplaco. Soon after her arrival she too the examination tor the position of translator In the Bureau of Naval Intelligence In the Navy Depart ment. After ten years aho resign ed, to return home. Twelve years r.p0 she heard of an examination to be given In the United States for official ttunslator In the Patent Office, and Luck aho came, to find 130 determined, male competitors, all taking the same tests. Now shu la firmly ensconced In her position, tor those six score and ten competitors met their de feat from' tl'at battery of thirteen languages! Women lawyers? Yes. Indeed! First, let us Introduce Miss Flor ence Etherldge, of the Indian Office. She, too, started her gov ernmental career In another de partment Commerce.

In fact, she Is a member of the board of Judges, Corporation lawyers would not sneer at the valuo of properties coming under the Jurisdiction of this office, comprising, as It does, $900,000,000 worth of properties annually, oil and timber lands that would fetch many a fat fee.

It Is her proud boast that a woman Invented paper bags nnd wns ofll c ally decorated by Queen Victoria for her humanitarian act. Bho also speaks of Lillian Russell's potenteq dresser-trunk, which should be la beled thu Barnstormer's Joy. This vnlushlo p'cec of luggage Is to all appearances n common wardrobe, but when necessity calls It may bo transformed Into a welMlttd dress ing table, with only the pressure of a button or loci: or two. Another woman Invented a linen buttonhole that positively guaran tees n peaceful household. Still others have patented dish washers and baby carriages. Inventions do mestic enough to b a feature of any Interior department. , , It Is scarcely surprising Ho learn that a woman heads the rural school department. She Is Miss Catherine Cook, a Colorado woman, who has been a teaqher In nearly every kind of school, from the one-room red I. Inn beloved of the poets to the modern education plant of today. Mist Cook Is the fairy godmother of the rural school. Distance has no' effect upon her interest Her bureau supplies Information of nearly every kind that Is applicable to the Iso lated communities where present-day l.rdngogy percolates very slowly, Thp Bureau of Mines has reason to bless the scientific knowledge of a woman who has opened up almost unlimited conservation possibilities by her discovery. Tho discovery was nn nccldent, nt that. One day when Corrle Hverson. a school teacher, wos helping her brother wash some greasy oro bags, she spied tiny flecks of gold floating on tho water, atop particles of oil. At once she saw the practical application of her discovery, but she experimented a lonr time before she applied for a patent. Unfortunately, she died be fore the flotation method, as It la now called, came Into general use. The work of these women does not by any means sum up the use fulness of their sex to the depart ment. It happens that they have achieved a certain amount of no toriety by doing certain things well In competition with men. And this Is hut ono of the Gov ernment departments. In others there are positions equally re sponsible held by women. However, the Interior Department, with Its cozy hint of home Interests, car Ties perhaps 'the widest appeal. stops itching and burning There is immediate relief for skins Itching, burning and disfigured by ec lema, ringworm, or similar tormenting skin-trouble, in a warm batlt with Res inol Soap and a simple application of Resinol Ointment.
