uuuauju success practicing law, a proCession "which Is as yet scarcely overTtu -with women. Miss Margaret Wintleld Stewart, daughter of Ethelbert Stewart of the department ol labor at Washington. Is the modern young Portia, Miss Stewart has been called one ot the leading barristers ot the capital and she but recently had the added distinction of being admitted to practice before the supreme court of the United States. . v - Miss Stewart, who was born in Decatur, DL. scarcely more than twenty years ago. Is a graduate of the Washington College ot Law. She has been admitted to practice both In the District of Columbia and to the district court of appeals. She has been employed In the law and legislative reference divisions of the library of congress for the past Are years.

1 HEART AND BEAUTY

PROBLEMS -. By Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson "

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I had a few I dates with a girl and the last one I had I stayed too late. I have asked her for dates several times since then and she said her mother would not permit It, I have asked her again and I she says that she will see, but never answers. Do you suppose I should appologize for staying too late or go to thunder. JIMMY. - You should apologize to the girl and to her mother. Surely they will give you another chance. You should be careful about Btaying too late. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I will be 14 years old this July. I am very handJ some and attractive, at least the boys say so. I am engaged to be married ; to a boy 16 years old. My parents ' pay they will consent to my marriage. What is your advice. I know how to work and cook. POODLE DOG. You are entirely too young to marry. ( You should not consider marriage unj I til you are 20 years old. You are just r a silly child now and when you grow

older you will see It. You will see

later what a mistake It would be if you were to marry now. No boy at

18 years of age could make enough

money to support you.

LOVINGLY I advise you to get

your Information from a reliable druggist. -

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am 15 years old and have a light complexion, but I am troubled with pimples. " I use cold cream. Can you tell me what causes this. Can you suggest a good cold

cream that I could use. BABE.

Young people at your age and even as old as 18 or 20 have acne, which

is not caused from anything in par

ticular, but Is just a disease of adoles

cence. I should advise, you to go to a physician in case It might be a skin

trouble.

A READER I am afraid the same

prescription could not be used for light hair. Consult a druggist.

EARNING, NOT GETTING By the time Annie began to "get If and the needle she so feared was obeying her tractably, the back of her neck began to ache. From a dull pain it became a sharp torture. Then her back commenced. Then her eyes. Her fingers began to feel numb from the incessant pressure of guiding the seam. Her whole body was wracked. Unable to endure It, Annie stopped her machine and straightened herself, pressing her hands to her burning eyes. "Bad, ain't it at first?" sympathized Yetta, looking up without halting hr machine fYetta had the experi-

ptipa of two season's toll). "Once you i

- A ... .11 .(.ht TJv- 1

are usea 10 it, yuuio an ncm. -j next week you won't feel anything." Annie felt that she would not be alive by next week, and was much too wretched to care. But she did live until "next week," and for very many other weeks. Befnra Ota riavs had nassed Annie could

sit at her machine from eight In the

morning until the noon nour sioppea the whirr so abruptly the silence hurt the ears, without her eyes or her neck or her back or her fingers having any aches whatever, and again, feeling nnthlne from one o'clock till six. At

first she thought maybe she was par

alyzed. But sne nao. oniy grown useu to her toll. Her bones and muscles had been forced Into submission. For the first week she was paid nothing. "Beginners dbn't get no wages," said the foreman, "only we furnish the thread and the machine." At the end of the second week Annie got $5.90. She had earned $6.35, but ehe learned that you had to buy your own thread and needles after the prentlceship was done. Thirty-five cents a pound for thread. Ten for needles. Also, you bought your own machine. It was to be paid for at the rate of $2 per month for twenty months. Then you owned it, and If you left that factory you took it away with you to some other. Yetta told Annie it was better to say nothing about these charges. "It's done every place," she said, 'and if you're fussy and ask too many questions, or if you start talking about organizing or anything like that, the foreman'U get sore on you. He got mad at me once and kept docking for 'spoils' waists that get a spot of oi! on them or something. He'll charge you maybe fifty cents for a spoiled liana that ain't worth more than fif

teen cents. That's the way it is all over. It's best to keep your mouth

shut." Out of her first week's wage she paid the neighbor woman sixty cents for looking after her mother, who was now. better, and set aside fifty cents toward the cost of the sewing machine. Annie walked to and from work, so there was a saving on carfare. She took a little lunch with her from home and sometimes allowed herself an extra nickel toward the tea-coffee-and-milk fund from which the shop girls bought a little something each day to eke out their noon meat and make merry with. For that first

week or two Aunt Moggie helped in

effably from her ready purse and her

ready heart., Dear and faithful and strong Aunt Moggie. Through every period of her life, through every trial and bewilderment, Annie clung to her with a confidence that never was misplaced, a love that never went unsatisfied. Three months later Annie had the thrill of her life when she found ten dollars in her pay envelope for one week's work. (To be continued.)

HOUSEHOLD HINTS j By Mrs.Morton I

CARVING INSTRUCTIONS. To Carve Porterhouse Steak The flank end should be removed before cooking. This piece should form the basis of a stew for a second meal. Both the tenderloin, on the side with the fat, and the sirloin on the other side, should be removed from the bone. The sections are then cut in inch strips, with the grain of the meat This provides for each serving a piece of the tenderloin and a piece of the tenderloin and a piece of the sirloin. To Carve a Sirloin Roast Place roast on platter, skin side up. Press fork well down into center of roast, hold it firmly with the left hand. With the sharp knife In the right hand cut in thin, parallel slices from the crisp fat to bone, then slip the knife under slices and cut from bone. To Carve Rump Press the fork well down into the center of the roast. Hold it firmly In the left hand, and with the knife in the right cut In thin, parallel slices, with the grain of the meat By so doing, some of the less tender muscle will be served with

that which is more tender. In Prance this method of cutting with the grain is prefered, as the" Juice remains in fibers of the meat rather than running out Into the platter. The flavor seems to be better, but the meat is not' so tender, or as easily masticated. To Carve a Fillet of Beef Begin at the thick end and cut diagonally across, having each slice from onefourth to one-half of an inch in thickness. CLOTHES ECONOMY. Careful pressing not only adds to the appearance, but helps keep clothing in good condition. Pressing of clothes can be satisfactorily done at home of the characteristics of the fiber are known. The first thing to consider is the felting property of the wool fiber and the importance of avoldelng any method of pressing which will cause the garment to shrink and lose Its soft and fluffy nature. Use a moderately hot Iron and a pressing cloth wrung as dry as possible. Place fho cloth on the right

side of the garment and press until the pressing cloth is dry. Remove the cloth, and the surface of the material will look soft and fluffy. The wool material will" not be entirely dry.- Turn the garment and press on the wrong side till dry. If pressed on the right side the nap or fuzzy surface is pressed down so , tightly that the garment is shiny. r Darning is practically the only method that will fulfill! all these requirements. If the material Is cotton In one direction and wool In another, make the darn correspond to the fibers in the original. Identify the weave and duplicate It as nearly as possible. Use colors which match or neutral tones with speaks of color as near the shade as possible. ' Use net, tape or mending tissue whenever possible for reinforcement. Press the mended place and it will be less conspicuous, v Systematic ; brushing of your clothes every day will lessen expenditures , for cleaning. Brushing done with a circular motion removes loose dirt, restores tho nap and will help remove "shine."
