Tho Idea! Wasn't it .enough to
bvq tho failings of one's own

"Huh! I KUi-HH you've forgotten
that pullet of yourn that left her

eggH. I gun you'd hotter elean
out your own nenl before you hUiti
In on mine!" With this parting
allot, Old Speckle, clucking vIkov
ouHly, led hor family away and ox
pendod her anger In Hcrnlchlntf
wornm and '"jjih for their dinner.
Htranwely enouKh, her llttlo runt
wub tho pet of the people In t lie
houtio. The little girl ealled her
"Tiny" and held her In her hand,
oven let her alt on her Hhouldc-r
and tweak her ear. with her bill.
Thin mado Old Wpecklo happy for
alio had, an alt muthoi-H do have,

Ingly imfortunuto one of her hrnni.
i Each day tho un grew hotter
and the chlekH grew nmaxltiKly.

. (itmoHt ImpoHKlhlo to hover her
family at night they hulked out
On nil aldett and chirped about cold
wlnna or less or heads. It "wan
most dlntreHwlnKK.
Ocenaionnlly their father, a
hand ho me barred roek, would fur
get his dignity and with much oh
teiUatlon and ado, scratch a few
worms for t,he ehlekH. Jle alwayH
mado n meat funs lout his deed
go unnoticed.
On ono sueli oeennlun he re
marked to Old Hpeckle, In a mwt
annoyed tone. "Are you aware th:it
hulf of these chicks have sunburn
ed backs? It'B a disgrace. Why,
except for the feathers on the
tips of their wings they are
naked!"
Jler voice was unsteady from
emotion as hIio replied: "It breaks
m y heart, h u t w h at en n a i oo r

who own uh that my chicks need
oily f o oil 1 n o rd e r to niako t h o i r

I was ralHed It was different,. We
chicks had a pen to ourselves and
we never had to suffer such indig
nities. You mark my cackle; one
of these days there will bo sick
ness In this flock unless wo havo
better care. Hueh neglect! Im
proper food ; unclean water; milk
pans never scalded mid roosts
never cleaned," and her voico low
ered, she. cackled In a whisper,
"Why I actually noticed 'scaly-leg'
on sonv, of the hens! What ,s
worse, caught on of our chicks
senitehlnn lice!"
At the horrified look in her
male's eyes she hastily added that
sho had ordered her brood Into
a dust balh at once.
"Oh, for the good old days of
my youth, when we were dusted
at Intorvalfl with insect powder,"
she sighed.
Hoon the rhlcks Were In the ug'y
stage. Their crops. Innocent of
feathers, ami bulging like an over
developed goitre, seemed to pu'l
their bodies forward and make
them appear as though they were
In danger of falling on their heads
as they ran. '
Kach d:iy Old Speckle taught
her family some new lesson; how
to scratch, what to eat and drink,
to lake dust hnths, to o their
Individual oil cans and many other
lessons.

, Upholstered Furniture
To general demand for popu
lar priced pieces of furniture has
lead to many inferior materials be
ing used in the work, tho use of
fewer tacks and tie strings all of
which can not be detected by the
customer, and the average per
son knows not why one chair gives
way fjulckly while another lasts for
generations. There are but two
safe ways for the person who
wants the best ones is to buy
pieces which have been made by a
reliable ana well established com
pany and the other is to have it
made locally by an upholsterer In
whom one has confidence.
There are on the market today
an unlimited assortment of cover
ing materials priced to fit any
purse with coloring and materials
to suit any room.
The uncut frleges are probably
the best materiuls for service, and
these are reasonably priced. Vel
vets, velours, tapestries, woven
woolen materials, brocades and
damasks are nil good If the back
ground Is prime, but a loosely
woven piece has little resistance
and 1h nut worth the trouble of
tacking onto the frame.
Cottons soon show wear 'and
look shabby very quickly. If a
good firm piece of glazed chintz
is carefully put on it is pleasing
and wears woll. Horsehair and
imitation horsehair is being used
on restored pieces of tho penod of
the stiff parlor furniture.
heather and imitation leuthers
are not used at present, for softer,
richer fabrics are having their day
at present. Overstuffed 3-piece
sets of furniture havo been placed
on the market at so low a price
that they are, no longer exclusive.
Those who are fortunate enough
to own a lovely carved chair, stool
or settee will find nothing better
and more fitting for Its upholster
ing than a piece of needle point.
Jtut always the same advico which
has been so often given holds true
buy fewer pieces hut buy well
buy for utility and comfort and
always for lasting qualities. Tho
correct piece of furniture fits into
the room and never screams or
jeers at you but becomes more
and moro beloved us it mellows
ami proves Its value.

Tho wise parent will inako suro
of his child's mental well-being,
just us he mukes suro that all Is
woll with tho child's body. Hcing
a parent means tho constant tak
ing on of new responsibilities and
nothing short of care of tho whole
child, mind, spirit and body, should
be regarded as adequate.
Wo can show our young people
that while many of the old cus
toms no longer apply to our pres-'
cut conditions, thcro Is usually a
real need back of every enduring
custom. That a certain custom,
that many customs, today appear
ridiculous must not discredit con
ventions altogether. Wo must try
to find what Is significant both In j
the old conventions and In the '
present deslw to depart from
them.
Since children often consider tho
voyage the "most fun" of tho en
tire trip abroad, tho cabin ships
which take about eight days for
the crossing aro preferable to tho
large, speedy liners. Second-class
travel nn n largo liner is not ad
visable with children because of
the vibration, the llmtted deck
space and the preference given to
tho needs of tho first class passen
gers. A cabin ship which has been
lined In the winter for long cruises
Is an ideal boat for the summer
crossing with children. It Is like
ly to be very steady and have
ample facilities for games and deck
sports.
.Most people know 'that some-I
thing has been happening recently

Is or how they may benefit by It.'
The list of nnnuals that can be
depended upon to do well in a
shaded garden Is very limited and
when a shaded garden is mention
ed It means ono that has some sun
flii ing a part of tho day. It is
useless to try to grow uny of tho
annuals In complete shade. Three
annuals that will do welt In the
shade nnd which aro Inclined tq
shrivel tn the hot sun are clark
las, schizanthus, nnd the sweet sul
tanas, Centaurea imporialls. Ulark
iaa and schizanthus aro now much
used by greenhouses mid gardens
havo often mourned that they
havo llttlo luck with them out of
dours, particularly tho handsome
iicblanthus or butterfly flower
with its airy and peculiarly cut
flowers with their wido range of
color and attractive markings.
They can be grown to good ad
vantage in a bed shaded from af
ternoon sun. In fact. If they get
sun until 10 o'clock In the morn
ing, they will be well suited. Tho
clurkla Is another handsome annu
al much used for cutting that
thrives under similar conditions
and the sweet sultans will be quite
at home.

What Men and Women Earn
And Where,
In 856 Massachusetts factories
the average weekly earnings of
32,038 women, $10.17, were con
siderably less than the correspond
ing; average for 84, SOS men,
128.52, according to the February
survey made by the Massachus
etts State Department of Labor
and Industries. The lowest aver
ago for women was $12. 73, found
in the paperbox industry; the low
est for men, $19.94, reported for
cotton mills. To newspaper print
ing and publishing goes the credit
for showing the highest average
both for women and for men,
$28.47 and $4$4.72. respectively.
What Girls Live On Anil How
In Xew York Stay away from
New York unless you can be as
sured of a steady job paying ut
least $24 or $25 a week is the ad
vice to girls who plan to go to that
city given by Mrs. Angelika Krink,
chairman of the Room Registries
Section of the Welfare Council of
New York. The weekly budget
published by Mrs. Frink and based
on study of the modes of living of
thousands of girls Is as follows:
Rent. $8 In Manhattan, $7 in
Brooklyn; food, $10.50; clothing,
on the basis of $200 a year, $3.85;
carfare, telephone, and postage,
$1.25. This leaves only $1.40 for
recreation, savings; church, chari
ty, medicine, doctor and dentists
bills, vacation funds, dry cleaning,
and all the other miscellany of a
girl's life. Presumably a girl earn
ing not more than $25 a week
must do her own laundry and
she usually does.
In Cincinnati. The ways and
means of living of one hundred
Cincinnati girls, representative of
the women workers better situated
from the viewpoint of wages, were
studied by the Consumers' League
of that city. Tho majority of the
girls were in their twenties, more
than half were living at home and
more than a quarter in organized
residences for girls. The median
of a week's earnings for the group
was $1 (1.50 half earning more
and half less than this amount.
Tho following are medians of the
weekly expenditures reported:
$13.08 for 29 girls earning $10
and under $1, $lti.88 for 50 girls
earning $1 5 and under $20, and
