Dross of Her Dream ^ ^

When the girl reached her own door, Rhe turned to look, back at the son, which was Just stoking -behind the cotton mm- But It was a dull, dlareputable ball which leered at her through the frtmy atmosphere, and she threw out tyw hands with a sudden revulsion of pent-up disgust. , i “ *Taln t my sUn!’* she half sobbed. "Hit's—hit’s only just some cheap thin* the factor)' gits up!” • The company used the poorest grade‘of soft coal* and, though Us dense smoke had ceased to blacken the sky above the tall chimney, It still clogged the moist atmosphere of the mill yard and the cheap, hastily constructed village tn the lit tie bend of the sluggish river. A heavy step approached, and she turned id look into her father's easy, good-natured face. "You 'peara to gif ahead of we uns Nervy," he said, with obvloua disapproval In his voice. "I spoke to—to Bess cornin’ out, an' she said you left the factory like you was fired out a gun. She— don’t like folks to be offish an’ on-
borly.”
At the name of Bess the girl d^Cw back,
flushing hotly.
“I don’t care for none of ’em,” she retorted, drearily. "They're so cheap an’ triflin’. Oh, pup, If only we hadnlt left the mountains!’ 1 She turned abruptly Into
the cabin, and he followed.
"But hit was you as seemed most set on cornin’, Neryy,” he expostulated as he seated himself on a box and watched her Start a lire and sot about getting supper. "You said there’d be chances to study an' 1’arn to be like folks, an’ now,” wondorlngly, "here you be homesick a'ready. I didn't care much to come myse’f at first, but now I wouldn’t go back.” r The girl's face hardened a little, but ahe mado no answer. The man drew his box forward and began to eat hungrily, but from time to time raised his eyes
furtively to the face opposite.
."Mebhe you’d ought to have mo’ comp’ny, Nervy. 'Tain t very lively with Jest one man like me In the houae, an’ me mostly out. Now, there’s the Qrogans, that take bo ders,” shifting his eyes from her direct gase. “They don’t charge but $2, an’ that would leave you more’n a ■dollar a week for apendln’ ynoney. Of co’se,” hastily, ”t“d hate to have you go away, but if I lowed you was havin’ a
better time I’d be willin'." Her hps curled u tittle.

stopping now and then as though to make inquiries. A few moments later a clear, Imperative rattat sounded through the house, and she went to the door, wondering who it could be. "Nervy, I am glad to see you!” "Oh, Jake! You here?" Then, with a warni flush on her face, she re-entered the room, and he followed. There were no chairs, and she motioned him Co the largest of the boxes. Then she came and placed her band familiarly on his shoulder. "Now, tell me, Jake,” she commanded, "what ever brought you way off to these parts, an’ how’s the folks an’ the farmin’ an' everything?” But he only possessed himself of one of her hands, laughing. "You uns are In a regMar hornets’ nest of a place,”' he declared. “1 ast for you at one house an' at another an’ another, an’, though nobody seemed to know you by name, they all wanted to talk an’ say somethin’ about somebody else. Hit was only When 1 spoke of you as bein’ a tall, fine-lookin' gal, with square shoulders, that they seemed to know. An’ then— whew!” He paused abruptly, and at that moment a flare through a broad crack In the stove crossed her face. "Nervy,-” he cried sharply, springing to his feet, "what's the matter? You’ve been sick, on’—an’, yes, you’ve been cryln’.” “No, no, Jake,” she expostulated, smiling and flushing under his anxious gaze. "Hit’s—hit’s Jest the lonesomeness or the place.

MMY WOMEN PREFER VkLET TO Lion MUD
MEN ARE VALUABLE WHERE WOMEN ARE HELPLESS.
GROWTH OF THE NEW CUSTOM
Demand Far Exceeds the Supply, and; He la in Fair Way of Becoming Popular.
NEW YORK, May 22.—A new manifestation of the servant question is the substitution by women while traveling of a valet or a trained nurse for a lady’s maid. "You don’t mean to tell me,” cried a conservative elderly woman to her up-to-date granddaughter, “that women In good society put a man .Into the place of a lady's maid? ’ ^ “Certainly I do,” was the calm rejoinder. “Just as they prefer oftentimes the man milliner, dressmaker, habitmaker, tailor and hair-dresser. “Of course, the duties of a woman’s valet and a lady’a maid are not exactly the same, Ibut the principal difference seems to be that those of the valet are more Inclusive.” Supply of Maids Short. One reason for the rise of the valet Is that the number of New York women who spend six months or more of every year away from home and travel without male escort has Increased tremendously of late, and that few who can afford It consider their traveling equipment complete without a lady’s maid. As a result the supply of lady’s maids Is short of the demand. Therefore, valets are employed as a substitute. Outclassed by Valets. The lady's maid, it is true, has her specialties, but when It comes to a question of general utility, say women who have employed both, she Is completely outclassed by the valet. Indeed some women go so far as to say that outside of the private apartment of her mistress the lady’s maid is more of a hindrance than a help while traveling, whereas the valet may be depended on for many services such as running errands, carrying sachels and bundles, interviewing porters and baggagemen, anad bearding the railroad ticket agent In his den. Thing* He Can Do. But he has other qualifications for the post he fills. He can pack trunks, not excepting the bonnet box, those who know him best declare, even more skilfully than a woman; and, without breaking down under the strain, he will keep the gowns, boots and shoes of his mistress Immaculately brushed, dress her hair and on occasion fetch and carry hot water and meal trays—a task a lady's maid rejects with offended dignity. In short, the woman’s valet, who must by no means be confrounded with the man’s valet. Is a remarkably useful person. and because of the satisfaction he Is giving he seems to be In a fair way to become popular. At the present time he Is more scarce on this side of the Atlantic than In Europe, but wherever he Is. or whatever his nationality, his services never go begging. WARN CO EDS TO COVER ARMS
University of Chicago Dean Takes Decided Stand. CHICAGO. May 22.—Miss Marlon Talbot. 'dean of women at the Unlevrslty of Chicago, has decided that It is unseemly and "mannish” for the co-eds to be seen around the campus without hats and with the sleeves of their shirt waists rolled up. This practice has become popular with the co-eds, and the men at the university during these hot days. The girls consider Miss Talbot's ban on the custom a hardship. One of them said It was “so jolly” to go around with one’s sleeves rolled up, and besides, she said the girls were only following the precedent set by Miss Alice Roosevelt In going without their hats. They all think Miss Talbott Is considerably behind the times. Dean Talbot, however, has warned them that such practices are especioally objectionable In a co-educational institution. and that if they are persisted in tbev likely will hasten Dr. Harper to a decision to divide the Junior colleges. This threat, it Is believed; can not fall to be affective. _ , Union of Literary Clubs.

[The anti-beef trust recipe contest closed May 7. The recipes now appearing were received on or before that date. Prizes are to be announced May 31. J Baked Beans—Hamburg Steak. Baked Beans—After thoroughly washing put one quart of soup beans, covered with water, on the back of the stove to blast. While the beans are blasting prepare the following tomOito sauce: Take one quart can of tomatoes or five ripe tomatoes, cut up in stewpan together with ten whole cloves and one pmall onion; cook this onehalf hour. Let cool, and rub through a sieve; place sauce back on the stove and rub two heaping tablespoonfuls of floor In a little water to form a paste; add this, together with three-fourths of a cupful of sugar, two teaspoonfuls of salt, a dash of cayenne pepper, and three-fourths of a cupful of vinegar. Let this sauce cook about ten minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Now take beans from the fire and pour off all the water, then put them In a large pan and pour the tomato sauce over them; add enough water to cover the beans; place two thin sIIcm of bacon on top; cover with a lid and place In a moderate oven to bake four hours. The above tomato sauce Is delicious, and can be kept several days, to be used on cold meats, vegetables, fish, potatoes, etc. Hamburg Steak—Have your butcher to “hamburg” you one pound of steak; put this in a pan, take a spoon and stir In one tomato just squeezed through the hand, a dash of salt, cayenne pepper, a pinch of sugar, and one -very small onion grated; rub this together thoroughly; have ready a hot frying spider with one large tablespoonful of lard In It; form this hamburg steak into seven balls and fry quickly, turning three or four times with a pancake turner; when slightly brown, take up on platter and serve.

—Baltimore News.
A useful garment Is a colored waist to wear under a short waist. It may be made of thin silk, any of the lawns or muslins, or It may bo of some of the mercerised materials that are a little heavier. These waists are to be worn under the white or the linen shirtwaists on cool days. They give a pretty tint that Is somewhat indefinable. Any favorite color may be worn under white or tan linens. Some girls have three or four of
these under waists.
A simple, and at the same time elaborate shirt waist may be made of a perfectly plain design, but the material Is fancy. Materials come already tucked, shirred, with insertions, with applique, and with all the weaves that make them seem more than they really are. One of the prettiest shirtwaists eeen Is! of liberty satin, the entire yoke and cuffs 1 shirred tn fine rows. Such a waist must | be beautifully made by one who Is an artist with the needle, for if it not so 1 made it Is about as slovenly an appearing i garment one can find. Linen and pongee shirtwaists must be [ found in the wardrobe of every girl that ! wishes to keep up with the styles. Many j of these have insertions and insets of | squares, or medallions with a bit of color , under the lace only. If one is an expert with the needle, drawn work decoration may be effectively added. Some of the novelties in shirtwaists are | made of the Oriental garments that are 1 brought to this country. These lovely, j
rich silks, with their wealth of embroider)-. make up into the most charming waists, and the colors blend with materials to be found In this country. Wonderful combinations of red with blue, green with yellow and other colors are made. Stocks and cuffs are made of the borders. It seems almost a pity to cut up klmonas and the flowing sleeve sacques into shirtwaists, but it is done, and with good effect. It might be said In connection with shirtwaists that the belts are hot being worn nearly so pointed as they have been. Just a slight dip in front is considered an Improvement, and there is no effort to make the waist unduly short in the
back.

TREATMENT OF A HUSBAND Woman choosing a companion for life should exercise great care. Before marriage a man’s virtues are foremost, afterwards his faults more noticeable. That Is partly because love is blind and marriage restores ^the sight. Many a wife spoils a good husband by improper treatment. Primarily a man Is at his best when he enjoys perfect health. Since his health depends chiefly upon the food he eats, the wife is largely responsible for his health and disposition. The wife selects the food for the household. If ahe gives her husband poor food she will turn him Into an unsatisfactory companion. The better the food a wife furnishes her husband the more perfect will be his health, his disposition and her happiness. Since nothing can be greater than the elements of which It is bullded, a man can be no better than the food he eats. Shredded Wheat Is the best food known, because It IS made of the whole wheat. Nature has compounded It perfectly. Being composed of health-giving elements, Us use makes healthy husbanefe.. Natural conditions, which are made pos-’ sible by naturally organized foods, bring healthy bodies. Shredded Wheat, being a naturally organised food, helps the husbands to perfection. Wise wives may learn of Us preparation from “The Vital Question,’ a free booklet published by the Natural Food Company, of Niagara Falls, N. Y. Send for It.
