Womeu spoil their ttervantg because they do not trust tbtni. and the fault In more with the uiltitress than with the maid, for women who are edu, rated aud mature should be clearer snd wiser iu their destines than wnm. Jen who are not educated and who, be cause of their antecedents and limited exerience, are no Immnture that In many ways tbey tire very like children. 1 the maid kusjwLs her mistress of trying to get every bit of work out of her that Is possible and of paying her the smallest wages that she can per suade her to take. If the mistress is sure that the maid will do as little work uh she can and will "strike" for the maximum wages, what else can they be hut enemies, how else can they ook mi nu b hi liei but askauce?

(Floating gardens some natural and some artificial have flourished in mauy parts of the world from early times. They are particularly advantageous In regions expos 1 to floods, where a jar- den planted ou terra flrma would be ruined by these occurrences, while the Boating garden Is undisturbed by the rise of the waters. Tbe famous float ing gardens of Kashmir are a caae In point Tbe lake of Xochtmllco, near tbe city of Mexico, Is nearly covered with floating gardens, called cblnampaa, on which are raised vegetables and flow ers for the city markets. They are formed of floating masses of water plants, covered with soli and secured by poplar stakes. The latter take root and surround the Islands with living hedges. Philadelphia Ledger.
