From the rags- which were sewed and braided Into tugs and later woven into carpets we have everything that can be manufactured in rugs and carpets outside - of the home. All necessary labor is made - wonderfully easy through labor-saving devices for clean ing and cooking, while schools and lectures over a large part of our coun try are training our daughters and mothers for greater efficiency in their home. While large bakeries do much for us, the real essential, main part of the cooking has not been taken from the home kitchen. The true mean ing of all this is community life, and perfect 'happiness and health only come through each one doing the duty or work intended for them. Ml' ST VSE BRAIDS. If this cooking Is looked upon as an art a science, knowing how, what greater thing could woman aspire to? No one believes these days that a woman should cook and wash and scrub and clean all day with no out side interests. Not by any means, but she must use her brains and think of the best and quickest ways in her cooking. Every woman should have at least a single fireless cooker. Why have a ham, tongue or corn beef using up gas and the housekeeper watch ing it on the stove, when a tireless will do the work better with no fuel and no watching? That is where brains count. Girls, learn to cook! Not just make fudge and angel creams, but learn why we use certain foods, and which are best for you or your husband: if he comes home after a day's hard work, whether from the field or an office, what is it about him which has kept the old saying for centuries on our tongues: "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach?" What caused the famous reply of Mary Livermore when a woman wrote her and asked what to do for the bad temper of her husband and she re- him there.

In the Gulf of Mexico. It was "eight bells" on a ship lying at anchor down In the gulf of Mexico. The men had retired for the night to their bunks and hammocks, and the ' wireless operator, alone in his watch fulness, was "listening in" at the head phones. Suddenly, out of the pitchy darkness of the sea, a message that curdled the blood in hla veins leaped down "the an tenna and bummed its fearful contents, "S. O. 8. a. O. S.-8. O. S." And a few minutes later, in response to-the cus tomary reply. "What is yonr position V the answer flashed back, degrees 27 minutes S7 seebnds west 4? degrees 33 minutes 10 seconds north.
