They leave dead matches and cigar asheggnll over the house. They never pick up or put | away their personal things. They will watch me cut wood, and do heavy lifting without offering to help. They find fault when 1 say that I do not have time to answer the telephone. They get cross if I don't butter their biscuits. cakes or toast. T try to be a good housekeeper, and am always fixing them good things to eat, but I get so discouraged that I wonder if there is any pleasure in the world for me. Do you think that it would be mean if I should refuse to wait on the boys when they are able to wait on themselves? B. B. Answer: 1 do not know anything more pitiful than the fact that nine- tenths of the overworked women in the world are being killed by the | nne sary labor their families force them to do. It is just a rasy to a coat up on a hook as it is to huang it on a chair. It is no more rtion to drop cigar ashes in a tray than it Is on the floor. It requires licroie sacrifice of pleasure to keep a newspaper together Instead of strewing it all over the house. But it makes a slave of the one woman who has to hang up and pick nd sweeb ap after a family who seem to helieve that their belongings utomatically switched to where they belong, and t their dirt ) s if by magic.

By the Associated Prees, SUDBURY, Mass, February 9.— Apparently as eager as a boy for what he termed a “real old-fashioned New England party,” Henry Ford, with Mrs. Ford and a little party of friends, arrived at Wayside Inn last night for the old hostelry, made fa- mous by Longfellow and purchased by Ford to preserve it as England shrine. It was a gala night, reminiscent of an earlier time. A little after his arrival Mr. Ford was playing a fiddle, jollying with the girls and “calling off” for some of the old country dances, now all but forgotten, and while some one played an oldtime air, while Mrs. Ford beat time, he danced a jig, nimbly and with evident enjoyment. man of the provinclal committee on Young People's work. Temporary commlittees were ap- pointed and the round table discus- sion and business of the conference was dealth with. Rev. Carl Block con- ducted the round table discussion. Following luncheon the business session was continued. At 4 o'clock the delegates will make a pilgrim- age to the national cathedral. The Washington province is composed of the societies in Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virgin- ia and the District of Columbia. —_———— - It costs enough to be buried these LU days, but it seems that old King Tut had four coffins.
