IRR WOMEN WEAVE STRAW HATS All People of island Depend Upon Earnings of Few Cents a Day Each for Their Living. Next to the transshipment activities of Mount Pleasant, the weaving ot straw hats is the chief source of in come of the people, says Commerce Re ports. The hats woven are of a cheap quality, the standard selling in 1910 for from $1.30 to $1.43 per dozen. The straw for these hats is at present Im ported from Venezuela and Colombia, but the Dutch government is attempt, ing to raise It in Dutch Guiana. The hats are woven by the women and children in their homes, and by moderate Industry a wonan can com plete a hat in one day. All over the island from early morning until after sunset the weaving goes on. The Sy rian purchasers, who collect the hats from house to house, pay about ten or eleven cents each. Although the straw for a hat costs the weaver from five to seven cents and the amount. realized from a day's work is very small, many of the people depend en tirely upon their meager earnings from this Industry. In the government school hat weav ing is taught and some of the natives attain a high degree of skill, producing hats said to equal the best made In Colombia. The better grades do not enter into the export statistics of the colony, as they are bought by tourists; the quality of the standard hat does not tmuge.. ... _ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ STATISTICAL NOTES .

In my country, as In the other parts of Europe. nobody need have any diffi culty in finding book stores in small towns or in large cities, Count Ilya Tolstoy writes In the Century maga sine. Here one can find a cigar store, a drug store, all kinds of shops where luxuries can be purchased, but the seeking of a bookshop is often a very hard quest. Even In New York it is hard to find a real book store, where the attendants know their authors and can help one select the books that one needs on any subject. There are some, but none too many. They can be counted on the fingers of one's 'hands. In smaller cities the task of finding books is a hopeless one. There are a !few stores where books are sold; but !what books? Novels mostly, the aver age ephemeral romance; magazines with too many P'-conceived articles containing little upbullding criticism of public life, much ill-digested infor mation, and newspapers which afford little of intellectual value, being most ly mediums ofkadvertising. American literature is yet poor. The good mag azines are few compared with Euro pean reviews. The inheritance of man kind, the universal literature, is hard ly known here. There are translations in sets, richly bound, but cheaply pro duced, and too often done by hack writers, who do not even understand what they translate. They are bad translations, as a rule, but costly. Poor people are not able to buy them. Even In Russia, In the .country which Americans thlnkgncivilized, we have translations of all the world's great writers. These editions are ap propriate to the means of the people. They can be bought for prices from 1 to 5 cents. It is the same in England. The result here is that the people read only newspapers and magazines. In Russia for the same price we can build 'a library of great books. The best works of Pushkin, Dickens, Shake speare, Dante, Cervantes, Goethe, Tol stoy, Heine, Victor Hugo and count less others are at the disposal of the poorest ECONOMY WITH GAS STOVE Woman Tells How 8he Saved Money by Making Plans Ahead for Her Baking Day. A woman has written In to the Wom an's Home Companion about her gas stove and she'says: "The idea of telling other women how to economize time and money Ia the use of my gas stove came to me on hearing a young housekeeper tell about baking a padding, or just one thing, in a gas oven as large as my own, which struck me as amazingly ex travagant," writes a woman In the Woman's Home Companion. "When planning to have a baking day with the oven, I sit down the day before and think out just what Is need ed for several meals ahead which must be cooked. For instance, I place a roast in a pan just barely large enough to hold it, thus economizing on space as welL Then, if possible, I cover the roast with a pan which can be made to sit quite level, into which I put several potatoes; or, if this ar .rangement isn't practicable, I put the potatoes on the grate. Beside the roast I place a small padding dish con taining a bread padding, on a small asbestos mat beside tke pudding dish a small pan of blscunits. A vegetable my sometimes be baked In a napple with all these things as well "The following, all of which I have tested, will be found good combinations for any baking day: "A meat loaf, covered, in a bread pan; escalloped tomatoes in a pudding dish; a pan of corn gems. Time about an hour. Baked potatoes may be crowded iln almost always. "Roast chicken in small cake tin; sweet potatoes pealed and sliced, sea soned and covered with mlk In pad ding dish; mearoni and cheese in a bread tin. Time about one and eme alt hours, oven moderate." If anyone can really tell what Is go iag on In Germany this is the time for him to speak out.
