MAILWOMEN COMMON ABROAD

carriers. New York's postmaster evidently disagrees, for he has a number of them in his service. But while our American postmasters argue about it the women on the continent are carrying mail so well and have been doing it so long they are not even discussed. Thephoto'graphs show German and French "mailmen" on their rounds. They are a commonplace sight and, efficient or not, bid fair to carry the mail in those countries until the war is over. '

Heart and Home Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a school teacher in a city or town which is considered a suburb of a good sized city. There is a young man who lives in the city and he has been paying me a good deal of at tention, but there is no way I can find out about him and get any assurance that his character is good and that his reputation is unimpeachable. I have never gone . with many young men and so I do not know just what to do. Can you advise me how to know whether he is all right or not? L. S. M. For the present you need have no worry about this y , young man's char acter. If he appears all right to you, treats you with respect and is not rude or unkind, let his actions speak for his character. If he should fall in love with you and ask you to marry him, you can then ask him about his associations and his reputation, and he will, if he is the right kind of a man for you, be glad to give you references and assurances of his good moral character. Your education and what little experience you have had will tell you intuitively if he commits any breach of good taste. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Will you please tell me the correct thing about several little points that bother me occasionally when I am out with boys. (1) In getting on a street car, should I get on first or the boy, and in getting off, which is correct? (?t When my beau comes to see me Sunday nights and suggests that we take a walk, should I get right up and go, or should 1 say yes, and then wait a while before making some move to go? (3) When he leaves, shall I tell him to come again? MARIAN. (1) The girl should get on the car first and in getting off she should wait until the young man has stepped down so that he can help her to alight. (2) When he suggests that you take TYPISTS ARMY IN WASHINGTON GROWS WASHINGTON, Jan. There is today in the City of Washington in active operation an army whose exploits attract little notice, but whose members are doing a very large "bit" toward winning the war for America an army of stenographers and typists, twelve thousand strong, recruited from every stote in the Union. A majority of these soldiers of the notebook and typewriter are girls. Day In arc! day out their nimble fingers faithfully click out the tremendous volume of correspondence and records required v a great n-'tion at war. They wear no bade nor uniform; there work is all work and has no thrills nor romance; but the United States could rot stay in the war a month without tlum. The rapidly expanding deepartments of the Government in Washington employ stenographers and typists with a greed that seems insatiable. The United States Civil Service Commission estimates that there will be twenty thousand Government employes of this class in Washington at the end of this year. , Owing to the general demand the Commission is finding it a difficult task to meet the calls of the departments. Examinations are held every Tuesday in 450 cities, and the commission states that an examination will be held in any city at any time, day or niht. who-, there is prospect of assembling a clas? of three or four competitors. .Eligibility may be obtained through passing an examination in practical tests in shorthand and typewriting. It is practicable to complete such an examination in one hour. Representatives of the Civil Service Commission at the post offices in all cities are furnishing definite Information to persons interested.

Right A French "postman."

tell you women are a failure as mail a walk, just say, "All right, shall we go right now?" or something like that. If you don't care to ask, it will b all right to make some kind of move right away to show you care to go. (3) Yes, if you wish him to. Do not mention the time he is to come let him suggest that. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of ten and would like to be a movie actress. Some people have told me that I have great ability to act. I can never be satisfied until I am one, and I can't stop thinking about it. By what means do you think I can join some company? My parents are willing. THANK YOU. You are altogether too young to become a movie actress. Go to school and get a good education, - and then when you are older go to the movie company you prefer, or the one nearest your home, and see if you can get work. If you are talented you will probably have no trouble.. I want to urge you to go on with your education, because you will need everything you learn later on. An untrained mind is not successful at interpreting parts. Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) Are tight skirts or full skirts going to be worn this spring? (2) I am eighteen years old. Do you think I would look odd if I wore a navy blue taffeta skirt? I want something for spring and summer wear that will be cool and will not show the soil. DOUBTFUL. (1) Tight skirts have come in style again. I would not advise a girl of your age to wear a skirt too tight to take long, free steps, however. (2) Navy blue taffeta will be all right if you get a youthful model. CHURCH NOTICES Second English Lutheran Northwest Third and Pearl; C. Raymond Isley, pastor.

Barnard, Federal Food Administrator for Indiana, is to the effect that butter and sugar are selling in Germany at an increase of more than 600 per cent over the prevailing American average. Bacon has "hit the roof," the retail price being about $2.25 per pound. Soap, also is a luxury, retailing np to $1.00 per pound for commonest grades. "These figures convey a suggestion of what the German people are enduring. Shall it be said that our people are any less patriotic or less willing to make the sacrifices this war involves?" said Dr. Barnard. DRINK HOT TEA FOR A BAD COLD Get a small package of Hamburg Breast Tea, at any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the tea, put a cup 'of boiling water upon it, pour through a sieve and drink a teacup full at any time. It is the most effective way to break a cold and cure grip, as It opens the pores, relieving congestion. Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking a cold at once. It is inexpensive and entirely vegetable, therefore harmless. (Adv.)

SALOONS, POOL ROOMS AND DANCE HALLS TO SUFFER

Fuel Administration Will Direct Fuel From Them to Homes. INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 17 Saloons, pool rooms, dance halls and other places of entertainment must get on without coal in those localities where there is a fuel shortage which threatens suffering in the homes. Evans Woollen, Federal Fuel Administrator for Indiana, has authorized every county fuel administrator to prevent the delivery or sale of coal to saloons and places of entertainment, when, in the judgment of the county administrator, such action is necessary to prevent suffering in the homes. Mr. Woollen, in his determination that Indiana homes shall be kept warm as long as there is coal, also has authorized the county fuel administrators to appropriate commercial coal for home use where the necessities of the hour justify such action. These two extraordinary measures were taken by Mr. Woollen when the unprecedented blizzard, which began last Saturday, swept the state, interrupting transportation and shutting down most of the coal mines and through this prompt action wide spread distress has been averted although inconvenience has been general throughout the state. Commandeered Coal Supply. For the first time since he took charge of the fuel administration in Indiana, Mr. Woollen, last Saturday and Sunday, exercised his authority to appropriate coal that had been shipped to commercial concerns, for domestic use. The blizzard caught Indianapolis coal dealers short and it became apparent that unless prompt relief measures were taken, thousands of persons in Indianapolis would be in danger of freezing. The fuel administration, aided by the railroad officials, checked up the coal on tracks and found more than one hundred cars of coal shipped to points beyond the state. Since it was impossible for the railroads tl move this coal toward its destination,' Mr. Woollen had the cars switched to coal dealers' yards and under the personal direction of Dr. Henry Jameson, fuel administrator for Marion county, all emergency orders were filled with halfton allotments. As a result there was not as much suffering in Indianapolis as would have been experienced in a normal coal year under the same exceptional weather conditions. Hundreds of letters have been received at the state office of the fuel administration congratulating Mr. Woollen on his order cutting off the coal supply to the saloons and places of entertainment during the crisis. The Telephone Girl Just take off your hat to the telephone girl, With a soft gentle voice and a cute little curl, She never gets mad and smiles when you cuss As you ask for her help to clear up a muss. She sees all the jokes and knows all your pain, When she don't get your party she'll try it again. She smiles at your madness and grins when you yell, And when you have secrets you bet she won't tell. So give her a crown for her equal is rare. When the books are all balanced and everything fair She ought to be given a white pair of wings. And placed in the choir where everyone sings: L. A. Handley At a husking bee in Somerset, Ky., a light yellow ear bore red grains in the form of an almost perfect cross. The ear was placed on exhibition and attracted much attention, adding considerably to the town's Red Cross subscription. COCOK lias reat -ooL value THE food value of cocoa has been proven by centuries of use, and dietitians and physicians "the world over are enthusiastic in their endorsements of it. It is said to contain more nourishment than beef, in a more readily assimilated form. The choice, however, should be a high-grade cocoa, "Baker's" of course. It is delicious, too Trade-mark on every package Made only by Walter Baker 8 Co. Ltd. itsa. u.s. pat. orr. Dorchester, Mass,

WHEAT AND SUGAR-SAVING DESSERTS Popcorn Pudding One quart milk. two eggs beaten lightly, two-thirds i cup sugar, two cups popped corn free from unpopped kernals. Flavor with vanilla or any preferred flavoring. Bake about forty minutes. Whole Wheat Pudding Two cups whole wheat meal, one-half teaspoon soda one-half teaspoon salt, one cup milk (sour or sweet), one-half cup molasses, one cup stoned dates. Put fruit into meal and mix until thoroughly floured; add soda, salt, milk and molasses. This will make a very soft batter, but the dry fruit absorbs a great deal of moisture. Steam three hours in closed mold. Serve wi"h any plain puddlnf, sause or whipped or beaten cream. If sour milk is used add one level teaspoon soda instead of one-half teaspoon. Raisins, figs, stewed prunes or any other preserved fruit or chopped sweet apples make a pleasing variety. This is good and inexpensive. Rice Pudding Wash cup of rice thoroughly, cover with a quart or more water, boil until tender. Add cup of milk and two tablespoons sugar, boil a few minutes; flavor with lemon, vanilla or maple flavoring, which gives it a nutty taste. Plain gelatin makes a pretty dessert by adding a couple of oranges or any fruit. Plain junket is good, too. One tablet makes a quart when added to a quart of milk, and needs but one teaspoon sugar and ' one teaspoon any flavoring. Cornstarch pudding is nice. Adding cocoa to it m.ke3 a chocolate pudding. BREADS Barley Muffins One beaten egg, one teaspoon salt, one tablespoon sugar, one cu;5 sour milk or buttermilk, one rounding tablespoon shortening, one teaspoon soda, one-half cup white flour, one cup barley flour. Makes ten muffins. War Bread The chief Ingredients are cold boiled potatoes, whole wheat flour and whole rye flour. The potatoes must be thoroughly boiled and equally dried.

Add grated cold potatoes and remaining flour and lukewarm water. Make a stiff dough and let it rise to oduble the volume. Then work it down and SCROFULA AND - HUMORS GIVE WAY There are many things learned from experience and observation that the older generation should impress upon the younger.
