MRS. STORY OF NEW YORK, D. A. R.
IN THE WOMAN'S WORLD
What They Are DoingLlttlt Things of Interest.
A WOMAN JAILER. How She Manage the Male Prisoners of AigU, Switaorland. There Is only one . official woman jailer in the world. Her name Is Jenny Porchet, and she lives In Switzerland. She Is governor and warder of the prison of Aigle, tn the Rhone valley. It came about in this way: ' Thirty years ago Mme. Porchet married the chief warder of the prison and soon proved to be a helpmeet Indeed, for. being a strongly built woman and with proper notions of discipline, sbo , ion. roncHET. . , made as good a jailer as her husband and more than once did his work when he was ill or away, , So when he died the authorities asked her to take his place permanently, and she accepted. All the year round the Aigle prison contains from twelve to twenty male prisoners, sentenced to terms of imprisonment ranging from three months to three years, and. although the woman jailer has no assistants, she has never had any trouble with the prisoners, except, indeed, on one occasion many years ago. when a burly ruffian attacked her. Mme. Porchet taught him a lesson In good behavior that confined him in the hospital for several weeks. Strict' disciplinarian though she Is, the woman jailer has the kindliest of hearts and takes great interest in her "guests," as sbe calls them. Many a prisoner has been set on the 'straight path agiiu by her wise and kindly advice. . Do Not Food Crocktr. The habit of giving baby something to chew. etc.. between meals Is not to be advocated, and crackers should be banished from the nursery. Far from being digestible, they are otherwise, for moistened by much saliva they go Into the stomach in solid mass more or less poultice-like in effect and give the tiny organs bard work. When baby is old enough to have any sucb article of food, zweibach should be substituted for crackers. Unless there is good reason for the change, a child, no matter "what age., should be kept on the food on which It thrives- If the feeding varies from what the infant has been accustomed to the method should still be followed. For Instance, if there m a child visiting the house Its usual hours must be known and continued, and If It has been In the habit of getting Its heavy meal at a time different from those at

home extort sttouia tie maae to let tne individual regime continue. Otherwise the visitor Is likely to become 111. For example, a child of nine years who has been having ber hearty meal at 6 o'clock went recently to visit some relatives - who gave It to ber In the middle of the day. with bread and milk at night. On coming home she told her mother that sbe had been hungry all the time at night and was unable to sleep, and3be was really ill for three days afterward. It was entirely a result of changing hours of feeding.
V A Quick Way. -No matter how mueh a woman may like to sew, she often gets very tired of the work, especially when there are just a few more stitches needed to complete an article. This is true of the busy mother who Is always planning for the making of something else before the garment in hand Is finished. By such a woman a helpful hint is appreciated. ' For Instance, when making a corset cover It takes time to cut and turn lc the edges of material for a casing through which to run the ribbon necessarily used at the waist line of the article. A piece of strong tape of sufficient width will not have to be turned in, but merely to be sewed alone; each edge on the sewing machine and used as a casing. : An Ingenious Tuck. The mother who groans over the destructiveness of ber young son on the knees of his stockings should adopt the plan of one ingenious mother who has learned how to make stockings last twice as long. In buying she selects stockings as long as tbey can be bought and before wearing runs a flat tuck about the ankle just below the shoe top, where It will not rub In walking. When the knees of her son's stockings become hopelessly darned the tuck Is ripped and the worn part raised so that it slips under the short trousers, while a whole knee takes its place. t T A Lesson on Natural History. A director of one of the great English railroads was showing his three-year-old daughter the pictures In a work of natural history. Pointing to a picture of a zebra, he asked the baby to tell him what it represented. Baby answered. "Colty." ruin ting to a picture of a tiger in the same way. she answered. "Kitty;" then a lion, and sbe answered. "Doggy." Elated with her seeming quick perception, he then turned to the picture of a chimpanzee acd said. "Baby, what is this?" "Papa," was the prompt reply. Bo Yourself Always, yrhatever ycu are by nature keep to it; never desert your own Hue of talentBe what nature Intended you for, and you will succeed. Be anything else, and you will be ten thousand times worse than nothing. Sydney Smith. , A Lessen In Neatness. "CaptMn Cbsrles Barr. the fnnxw yachtsman, was almost as noted for bis nearness as for bis seamanship.' said a man who knew blm. - "Captain Barr one summer took a cottage in the country.

New York. May .1 Modeled In clay by Ettore Ximenes. of Rome, a statue of President Taft U being cast in brome in New York, and will be presented to Mr. Taft by Slgnor Ximenes. Mr. Taft, at the request of Ambassador Mayor des'Ptancbs of Italy, gave three sittings, and the clay was modeled In thre bottrs. ' The statue Is about four feet high and was made at the Whit House. 1 .V Signor Ximenes, who Is Commander of the Order of the Crown and Commissioner of Arts, tn the department of public Instruction of Italy. was sent to America by his government to make a study of this country's rystem of
teaching art and to observe the progress in that direction. He expresses himself as enthusiastic over what he has seen since landing In New York a month ago. k "Contrary to what many think about New York," he said yesterday. "I find the skyscrapers do not spoil Its artistic appearance. They lend to It a FOR THE EPICURE. Throe Odd Dishes That Are Net Difficult to Prepare. This Is the way one woman utilizes stale brown bread crumbs and makes a quickly made dessert. She covers the bottom of a glass dish with powdered sugar and breadcrumbs mixed. Over this she puts a layer of whipped cream and a spoonful or two of preserves, then more crumbs and sugar and another layer of whipped cream and preserves. The cook who prepares this Is a German, and she calls the simple dainty Matenpelse.w Portuguese apples are prepared thus: Choose twelve apples, not too large and all of one size. Peel them and remove the core. 8tw gently In sirup until tender, but not broken. Leave till cold. Place In a glass or silver dish, strain and then color the strap pink and fill the hollow in each apple with red currant, jelly, melted sufficiently to be poured In. For the sirup use a breakfastenpful of sugar, the same of water, the juice of one lemon and the peel of half. An appetising way to prepare so called sole-really flounder ts to skin and filet two of the fish and season with salt, pepper and a little lemon juice. Place them In a well buttered fireproof dish, cover with buttered paper and bake In a moderate oven for twenty minutes, moistening with a little stock. For the nance, stew four large tomatoes. When cooked, rub through a sieve and mis with them the juice of half a lemon, a pinch of salt and pepper and add the liquid tn which the fish bare been cooked: Stir well, make thoroughly hot and pour over the fish. Chopped mushrooms or truffles may be added to the sauce, and. a glass of wine should not be omitted. - - - - - - Stewed chicken with olives Is dellclous. Cut the chicken Into neat joints and fry tbem in butter or sweet olive oil In a saute pan. Pour off the oil and add a finely minced shallot. Cook for a little time and then moisten with rich brown stock or gravy. Cover the pan and stew gently for about thirty-five minutes. About fifteen minutes before taking up the chicken add twenty stuffed olives. Dish up on a crouton of fried bread and garnish with croutons. Pour the sauce, strained, round the fowl and serve. IMPROVED CLOTHESPIN, Resembles Somewhat the Holders Used by Photographers. -If aaked the question the majority of boose wives would ssy that the common clothespin wss perfectly satisfactory in its present form. Nevertheless a glance at the Illustration below shows what a decided improvement cau be made In these laundry accessories. The improved pin shown here kbw sttu cionnru. resembles somewhat the clamps used by photographers to support wet prints while drying. They are made so that any number can be placed on a clothesline, being movable in either direction. The clothes are supported by small jaws, the grip being decidedly firmer than in the ordinary clothespin. In addition, the clothes do not come In direct contact with the clothesline and cannot become soiled, as Is often the case with the ordinary line. Tbey are also easier to handle and after the clothes are removed are allowed to remain on the line.; Washington Hopes Per m A phase In the character of the only New York chatelaine in a cabinet borne is herfQTdaess for settlnar celeb

I expected to find the city monotonous, but every street ts different and interest ing. I am astonished after seeing American women that all Americans are not artists. . ' Signor Ximenes will visit many ctties in the United State before returning home. He has received orders ter statuary, hut will execute only such as he cho.es to present to friends, Cardinal Gibbons has been the recipient of a clay model of himself, and possibly a tew others will be made.

In other words, the bag la built like a barrel, with an opening; at the aide. Th opening Is held together by lacing with ribbon or by two buttons.
