YOOI THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAKELAND, FLA, JAN. 3, 1913. ;| SHOPPERS MANY WOES By BARBARA BOYD. She approached the floorwalker, as being the man of knowledge, and ask- ed pleasantly: “Can you tell me where I can find knitted sleeping caps?” He looked slightly puzzled. “Knft- ted sleeping caps?” he responded du- biously. “Yes. For outdoor sleeping. One needs something to protect the head, you know.” “Yes, to be sure. They are in the muslin underwear department.” “But they arcn't underwear.” “No. But the flannelette night- gowns are there, and—" “But these aren't flannelette,” she objected. “I understand,” he said soothingly. " “But all such things are together. Fourth floor; take the elevator.” So she took the elevator, though she thought whimsically that more correctly, it tock her, and journeyed to the fourth floor. “I am looking for knitted sleeping caps,” she explained to a saleswoman in the muslin underwear department, “something to wear on the head for, sleeping outdocrs.” | The saleswoman flung out a flan- ' nelette nightgown with a hood. “No, that isn't what I want. I just. want & cap for the head. It is mads! purposely for sleeping outdoors. It is knitted.” “You'll find the knitted things in the Art Needlework,” said the sales- woman, gathering up her nightgown. “But this isn't exactly art needle- work—" “All the knitted goods are there,” replied the saleswoman, putting the nightgown in a drawer, and turning .away. So to the Art Needlework fared the searcher for a night cap, and once - MASTER OF ART OF GRAFTIN . day he took a horse to a negro black- | like that can drink with me. more told the tale of her nceds. “We have these knitted motor toques,” said the saleswoman. “No, they are rnct what I want. These sleeping caps are made pur- posely for sleeping outdoors. They are knitted to fit over the head and come well down over the forchead—" { The saleswoman's face showed a gleam of intelligence. “I know,” she said. “You'll find them in the Hosiery Dop'\r!mont' “Hosiery!" “Yes. | there. It's the Subway Gallery in the basement.” So to the basement the woman jour- neyed and interviewed the stocking counter. The saleswoman shook her head. “You should have gone to the knit un- | derwear counter.” she sald with a note of mild reproof in her voice. And as the searcher turned away she heard the saleswoman say to a fellow clerk: “They'll be coming here for washtubs | next.” Wearlly she leaned against the knit underwear counter. “Iave you Kknit- ted sleeping caps?” she asked a salcs. | man. “Notion counter,” he said briskly. He spoke so confidently hope re vived, and she turned her footsteps toward the notion counter.

You' gre a gfrater, and a smooth one, but you don't get me.” ! Following this declaration just out- side the national Democratic head- quarters one man made for the ele | 5 vator and the other entered the gen- ' 3 eral offices of the national Democratie machine. The latter was Representa tive Albert Sidney Burleson of Austin | Tex., and his face was flushed with @ anger. “There {8 the nerviest fellow you- all ever saw in your life,” sald Mr. -~ Burleson, by way of apology and ex- planation. “That fellow keeps a hot trail for men in poliiics and borrows right and left. I don't think he ever , made an honest cent in his life. “I first keew him in the Panhandle section of Texas. There, by sheer nerve, he took over a small ranch and then borrowed money from a bank to stock and rux the place. Here is a story that is typical of him: One smith to have it shod. He induced a neighbor named Peters to accompany him. After the negro had put two rhoes on the horse he turned to Peters and eaid: “‘That's the best work I ever saw a nigger do. By George, he deserves a i reward. Give me a dollar for a few minutes, Peters, to give this nigger.' “Peters forked over the dollar and went away. When the negro black- smith had finished putting the last two shoes on the horse, this fellow drop ped back a few feet and stood looking on in admiration, “‘That's the finest job I ever saw | fn my life, he said. ‘Any man, even ¥ it he is a nigger, that can shoe horses Come on, my man, and have a drink.’ i “And then he tock the negro across the strect to a saloon and borrowed | the dollar from him on the way over. le ix actually the best money getter | w, and [ honestly believe it | stranded on the Sahara desert . eve to “in Prancisco befere two days.

The shoe department hasn’t got them, nor gloves. In fact, I don't think they are in the store.” | At this the saleswoman woke up. “Why don't you try the office of the manufacturer?” she asked. “It's right down Main street. I'll look up the | number in the phone book.” | This she did, and confident the quest was now at an end, the worn and weary searcher set forth douwn Main street.

Change in Modern Life, The old tradition that woman's work was in the home, and only in the home, is dying, and dying with swiftness; slaughtered unmercifully by the mod- ern industrial system which has suck- way from the home all those in- dutfl- that once were carried on there—the pickling, the weaving, the baking, the brewing, the spinning. All | these were once home trades at which women of almost all ranks earncd their daily bread; they may not, as housewives, have been actually paid | for their toil in money—as a maucr |o f fact, I do not imagine that they oft- | i en were—but they certainly earncd, the keep, the board, lodging and al-| lowance dealt out to them by the hus- ; bands who were at the same time) their employers. It was their labor, which helped to make of the average home a self-supporting imstitution, a place of business as well as a place to dwell in.—London Mail. “Don’t you think that women are| TheJackson === | ballot?” “I certainly do.
