How Friotion Between Ml (tress and

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,

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

discord which exists every day and all

A practical knowledge nf. the work
to tie done, an ability to convey that
knowledge to servants, to observe
without appearing to observe, to cor
rect without nagging and to ahow
friendliness without familiarity all
these will enable us to give to a maid
a sense of personal freedom and re
aKuslhlltty and a practical knowledge
of the details of her work which will
tend to dissipate the hostility engen
dered by years of misunderstanding.

(Floating gardens some natural and

parts of the world from early times.

and surround the Islands with living
hedges. Philadelphia Ledger.
