O the active support of the musical profes

sion is partly due the enormous prestige-

of the Pianola It might be possible for a

musical instrument of mediocre quality to secure

here and there a favorable comment from mu

sicians

¬ But when the opinion is so unanimous whenpractically every eminent pianist composersinger teacher c declares a preference in thestrongest possible terms as in the case of thePianola then there can be no doubt as to theabsolute supremacy of that instrument in its par-ticular field

ers should not be confused with it Just as the Pianolas prestige isnot shared with any other instrument so do its musical end constructional advantagesplace it in a class of its own

HAT dldttvo do before wo had the telephoneYou have heard that before havent youWoll dont get excited I um not going to answer it I admit I

cant possibly toll you what wo did before we had the telephone but Ican toll you something I think we didnt that is break our en-

gagements so lightlyReally If I didnt think Elinor needed me to mi her tables I

wouldnt RO to the whist in this horrid weather It seems suoh anundertaking to mo to get dressed for this weather and the fire does lookso nice I heard my next door neighbor say the other day

Why dont you telephone Elinor promptly suggested mother Askher if she cant grot some one to take your place

Its pretty late I dont know as I ought to She might get Annie togo over my next door neighbor hesitated and then after the man-ner of those who hesitate was lost

Oh I guess Ill call her up and see she capitulatedTo a telephone plea of an Incipient next door neighbor would

be highly Indignant If any one hinted she was not strlotly truthful so Isuppose she must have begun to feel that cold just as she sat down tothe telephone for she said nothing about it before nd dread of theutorm the unfortunate hostess naturally responded that she woulddoubtless be able to find somebody to fill in

And my next door neighbor oheerf ully went back to her easy chair be-

fore the tire and I came home decided to write thisOh dear I promised to go to that churoh fair committee meeting

says the lady across the street but I do want to finish this waist to-

night Ive been fussing over It for a week now and Elsie did so want itto wear tomorrow

Why dont you telephone the chairman that you cant come speaksup her husband

And in three minutes it is done So sorry but some unexpected workcame up You will forgive me wont you My Judgment thats sweet ofyou but I dont know as its worth very much Youll telephone me whatyou decide wont you Thank you ever so much Goodby-

I promised Id go to that concert with Edna but I didnt know Iwas going to have callers all the afternoon and get so behind In my writIng Shes got the tickets and she can probably get some one else to go

if I call her up I caught myself saying the other dayIf there had not been a telephone in the house every one of those

three engagements would probably have been keptNext time you start to break an engagement via telephone suppose

you stop and ask yourself If you wouldnt have managed to It if ithadnt been for the tempting convenience of that little black and nickelinstrument

FROM WOMANSPOINT OF VIEW

There to one Item of housekeepingwhere money Is often paid away without reason that is in soap both forwork and toilet A few oldfashionedhousekeepers make all the soap they usein tho work the common kind fromwaste fat and grease found in any placewhere cooking is done and the hand andface soap from pure casttle cheap enougheven when purchased in small quantities I have been gleaning points fromone of my neighbors ono of the oldschool housewives who Ic willing to abandon any method when she finds a better one but who otherwise sUcks to thebest of what she has learned despitethe temptations to keep pace with herneighbors

When I paid her an informal visit yesterday afternoon sbe escorted me tothe kitchen with an air of pride whichrather prepared me for something un-

usual There I sew two large black panslined with clean brown paper and filledwith the whitest kind of soap whichcost nothing more than the dime spentfor potaah end penny or two repre-

sented by the ammonia and borax Thegrease was saved and clarified in herown kitchen and there is always enough-

to make soap twice a year Once in awhile she may have to buy a oaks ortwo of soap before her own product isready for and she has been knownto buy a piece of suet to make up therequired quantity of grease when soapmaking But these are onlyoccasional happenings

This is her method and simple enough-

it seems Every particle of fat Is savedheated clarified with potato and put intofivepound pails Her palls are the kindin which sugar or milk for the use ofbabies is packed honest measure andtwo are filled before soap la made Thisis melted and added to the contents ofa yellow bowl placed in the quartand a halfpint of cold water one table-spoonful of ammonia a scant tableepoonful of borax and the can of potash allthoroughly mixed with a long stick andcare against spattering The fat ispoured in slowly with stirring and afterthe thick mass has been put into paperlined tine it is exposed to sun and airtill set then barred off removed from thepans and put away to harden

This If white and light and cheap Ifallowed to property dry Green seep iswasteful and that is the kind usuallypurchased at stores Toilet soap I havemade for myself white caetiie shaved fine and made into a r with waterand oatmeal boiled to a I did notstrain it and I did not measure thewater but I used half as much of theJelly as there was of soap paste In myfirst batch I usad weak carbolic acidtho kind sold by druggists for toilet

half a teaspoonful to a point butwhen a frtend told me that peroxide ofhydrogen was better I substituted thatin the same quantity when I made mysecond lot and I liked it better I

it in custard cups half tilling themafter a rinsing In cold water and I nevercould buy better soap at any price Iknew that it was safe to use even on thedelicate skm of the face The work isnothing to women with leisure to spare

Good Old Oyster PieFrom the Button Glebe

In the old time a shallow puddingdish-was lined with good puff paste filled

with crusts of bread these covered with-

a top of the paste and baked The edgesof the dish were well buttered so thatthe crust would not adhere to them tooclosely and when the paste was bakedthis top was lifted off carefully thebroad crusts removed and in their placeput oysters prepared just as for oysterscallops except that the oysters were allowed to cook in the sauce for threeminutes after they wont In Then thecrust was laid back on the dish andthe whole sent to table The argumentagainst lining the piedish with rawpaste putting in the uncooked oystersand baking all together was that bythe time the paste was ready to eatthe oysters were overdone and Insipid

Why Kettles SingThe reason a kettle sings is a very

simple one As the water gets hot littlebubbles of steam are found at the bottomof the kettle These In their rush upwardstrike the sides of the kettle and set themetal it is made of in vibration thuscausing the humming sound wg call sing-ing You will notice a copper kettlewhich has thin sides will make a much

and more musical tote than airon kettle

A Girl with Style-

It matters little to many girls who arealways In the welldress claw how theeverflighty fashion whirls andveers For them there are styles that arealways good conservative and dignifiedAnd it is these girls who stand preemi-nently in a class far removed from thatwhich bows to every little whim of fashIon as the two poles

The tailored suit is one of the set stylesIt is always admirable Skirts are narrow or plaited quite five inches oft thefloor and cut with the normal waist lineor slightly above it Seams are tailoredand heavily stitched The coats are innocent of trimming mannish In cut andfastened with large pearl or fabriccovered buttons Sleeves are full lengthwith a turn back or straightstitchedcuff trimmed with three smaller but-tons

Boots for BabyEven the baby has come in for his share

of pretty styles of footwear White piquelaced with linen cord is clean attractive stylo for morning wear There arethe most cunning little felt Jullets edged

white rabbit skin for the bedroomKid boots of pale colors offer softness

and durability for in the modern day ofcleansers a soiled pair can easily be

freshened up A dainty little pair ofwhite silk bootees is embroidered withsilk or tiny silk ribbon

Most novel of all is tho idea of using-a small piece of Irish lace which youhave kept just because you IjavB beenwaiting for some use to be made of itOver a colored silk foundation laceis spread and its flowerllke beauty isdelicately appropriate for tho lace andlinen of the party dress

WIDOWS IN HISTORY

Tho reign of the widow la ancientsovereignty and one that has continuedthroughout the centuries

Widows as a type show much that issignal and salient in their bereaved per-

sonalities Some of them may suffer Insilence but by far the greater numbergive signs of a keen brain a strong willand a distinct individuality Historyproves that widows have founded king-

doms made seldom or neverstopped thorn and have ruled by rightdiviners the worlds of art science politics and literature

Indeed in some eases a widow has heldthe power of life and death has changeddynasties and altered the map of continents For grief seems in no way to put-

a curb on pride ambition and force ofcharacter On the other hand sorrowmay often soften and elevate A fewwidows have attained saintship whilein many instances a widow has ruledwisely and well and done the best ofgood deeds in her day and generation

Royal widows seem made in a masterfulfrnolti and when not the actual sover-eign have ruled their countries withsuccess as regents Queen Dido whodates from S4S B C said to havefounded the pity of Carthage And anentthis business she made what the modernstyle a good deal for she bought fromthe King of Xumidia as much land ascould be covered by a bullocks bide butae soon as the bargain was concludedshe cut the hide Into small thongs andthus inoloeed a big piece of ground onwhich she built her ancient capital Alsothis astute lady earned for herself theright to be called a widow indeed forshe so deeply mourned her dead husbandthat she mounted a funeral pyre and didherself to death with a dagger

Then Semiramis made her mark ae awidow when the world was young Shecomes on the scene as the wife of Minusthe mythical founder of Nineveh andafter her husbands death reigned for

years and went down to fameas the conqueror of Persia andEthiopia

Among othor royal widows who haveruled with a high hand and who ownedmany masculine attributes are MargaretQueen of Denmark Catherine de MedicAnne of Austria and Maria Theresa ofAustria also Catherine I and CatherineII of Russia who both reigned rightroyally during their widowhoods

Queen of Denmark when a youth-ful relict was by right Queen of Nor-way and also of Denmark In 13SS sheannexed Sweden and for over twentyyears ruled her three kingdoms withsplendid success

Catherine de Medici has gone down toinfamy as a clever woman with a shortage of conscience She was the wife ofa king of France and the mother ofthroe French sovereigns with as anextra one of her sons AS King of PolandShe reigned with might and main pittedProtestants against Catholics and broughtabout the massacre of St Bartholomew

Catherine I of Russia at the deathhusband Peter the Great became sole

ruler of all the Russians and Catherinen wife of Peter III ruled with a highhand for over thirty years and herreign saw the partition of Poland and avast increase to the power and dominionsof Russia t

famow Cardinal Mazrin MariaTheresa of Austria caw fifteen years ofwidowhood She had a majestic mien andan undaunted courage feminine tact andmasculine energy and raised Austria fromweakness and poverty to a position ofpower and influence

And a word must also be said ofplus and beautiful widow Elizabeth-of Hungary Daughter of a king andwife of a reigning landgraf she gave herself to good works and after death Wascanonized by Pepe Gregory I Those werothe days of miracles and of her it is toldthat when a paid spy opened the basketwhich she was carrying to a poor penstoner the basket was found tonothing but So one royal widowrose to the ranks of sainthood

Modern times have showed us severalroyal widows of light and leading Firstamong these our own Queen Victoria of immortal memory She was awoman who set her mark on a countryand united a will of iron and a fineintellect with a warm heart sod a tastefor domestic ideals

Queen Christina of Spain Is anothernotable widow who ruled her oountry asregent with marked success for eighteenyears and yet another is the EmpressMarie of Russia sister to Queen Alexandra and who is a woman of muchindividuality

GROWS HAIRand we can

A lady from Minnesota writesAs a result of Danderine my hair

Is close to five feet in length

Beautiful Hair at Small Costtroubles like many other diseases have

wrongly diagnosed and altogether misThe hair itself is not the thin to

be treated for the reason that it is simply a product-of the scalp and wholly dependent upon its actionThe scalp is the very soil in which the hair is produced nurtured and grown and it alone shouldreceive the attention if results are to be expected-It would do no earthly good to treat the stem of aplant with a view of matins it grow and becomemore beautiful the soil in which the plantmust be attended to Therefore tho scalp whichthe hair grows the attention if aroto expect to grow and become more beautiful

Loss of hair is caused by the npor losing its supply of moisture or nutriment whenbaldness occurs the scalp has simply lost all itsnourishment leaving nothing the hair to feedupon a plant or even a tree would die under similarconditions

The natural thing to do In either case Is to feedand replenish the soil or scalp as the case may beand your crop will grow and multiply as natureintended it should

Knowltons Danderlne has a most wonder-ful effect upon tho hair glands and tissues of tho

It is tho remedy for the hair everdiscovered that Is similar to the natural hairfoods or liquids of the scalp

It penetrates the pores quickly and the hairsoon shows the effects of its wonderfully exhilar-ating and lifeproducing qualities

One 25ccnt bottle is enough to convince you ofIts worth as a growing and hair beauti-fying It and see for yourself
