The family of two persons, In which one ia downtown all day, may be run with the greatest economy of time, food and worry. The family of two is not family at all In the true sense of the word which groups the old and the young and children in a household where management is a real problem. To manage the foods, the shelter, the work and the play of a household, say, of husband, wife and three children, requires considerable executive ability. The woman who can do it is a general In the field. If she can employ a helper who aupplementa her labor, so much the better; but the average family has difficulty in finding a helper, and the laundry, the baking and general cleaning Is done by different persons and all but the latter out of tbe house. Tbe family kitchen slate serves Its purpose to keep the machinery running regularly. A strong housewife may write it down In her memory, but how about those days when she Is not at home, and when she la tired and her brain refuses to act? The pro gram or the week's work should be mapped eut on the slate, and odd notes of needs and marketing jotted on the other side. Just by glancing at the slate it will be known when to expect tbe laundryman. when an after noon Is free, when the fish man comes, etc. The family of two has its nuzzle In dispensing variety at the table and having nothing go to waste. The kitchen slate, gaining a bill of fare, will keep Its possibilities before the eyes of the woman who likes a roast now and then, and feels life barren without a fowl. The cooking: of "left overs" is an extravagance of time and energy. There should not be any "left overs" to any extent. Yet a roast will last more than a single meal and a can of corn or tomatoes is double portion for two hearty appetites. An executive mind will decide what shall follow the first meal, and figuring It all out on the slate will dismiss the details from her consideration. s m mm. 1 - . i S9 . - r Condition Today of Property Once N SECRETARY WILSON HAS PASSED HIS 76TH BIRTHDAY.

There is a reverse to the picture; tbat life In the capital will always po sess an attraction which cannot be defined, and that routine work Is not so wearing as the uncertain "rush" of ordinary business, says the rational Magazine. Wealthy people from all parts of the country establish homes at Washington to enjoy the social season, and their daughters are all eager to go, but the young men remain ai the old home attending to business, and such young men are seldom found at Washington. Tbe government service constantly enlists women from all over the country, who are usually women of extraordinary ability and highly educated. Many of them - are related to residents of Washington and readily find work In the government service without having to go afield for it Naturally the matrimonial decadence which Washlngtonlans lament ensues. There are now 200,-00people in the capital of marriage, able age, but of these 30,000 men are officially) declared bachelors, and 50,. 000 women are unmarried with the "chances strong against them." Ten years ago there were many fresh, pretty girls at the desks in Washington; now there are more mature facet steadily performing the same daily tasks. Three out of every ten govern ment employes in Washington ar4 women, a percentage far exceeding any government force anywhere else In the world. The unwritten law of the departments demands that the woman who marries loses her position, and It has been said tbat a woman worker dislikes to give up a certainty for ai uncertainty. Daughters of congress men and senators may be Included It this list, for the glamor of Washington society enchants them and they love to come here. 0 SOLDIER'S of powdered sugar.

He began life as a farmer in 1861, and shortly thereafter entered politics. He was elected to tbe legislature for several terms and served three terms in congress. He was Regent of the State University from 1870 to 1874, and was Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station and Professor of Agriculture at the Iowa Agricultural College. He was appointed Secretary of Agriculture by President McKlnley in 1897, and was reappointed to that office by President Roosevelt and President Taft. The Secretary announces that be bas taken personal charge of the Forestry Service, and declares It his intention to open up for settlement all lands now within government forest reserves which are suitable for agriculture and do not run over 4,000 feet of timber to the acre.

UNIQUE ROYAL FEAST GIVEN ABYSSINIA. Some Instances Would Be Incredible Were They Not 80 Thoroughly Authenticated Case of Herr May. Once a Weeli the Ruler Feeds All Hie Subjscte Who Care to At; tend Ceremonial a Strange J One.: It Is alleged tbat Herr May, the German philanthropist and author, recently proved to have been a burglar and bandit In early life, in addition to the Improving literature of which he was the acknowledged author, also published anonymously a series of cheap ind detrimental fiction In which his experience as a bandit was utilized. In other respects he appears to have wholly forsaken his wicked ways. If this be so, and It would be kinder to live him the benefit of any doubt, the ease only bears a part resemblance to that of the celebrated Charles Peace, lays the London Standard. That now notorious burglar was actively practising his real profession when he was known to tbe sedate society of Peck-baand cultured genas a well-to-dtleman of impeccable antecedents. Peace was a past master In the arte 9f Imposture and had the making of a brigand In him, if he ever got the chance of following the more adventurous and perhaps more picturesque branches of crime. He, too, managed to establish some reputation for piety by his partiality for sacred music. His house was crammed with musical Instruments, but he never allowed anything else to be played. Another criminal who managed to Impose on his friends and acquaintances was Thomas Walnewrlght, who was certainly a forger rid probably a poisoner, but who had been a fashionable writer and critic, and was the friend of Charles Lamb, Talfourd and De Qulncey. "The kind, Walnewrlght," as Ella called him, was a thorough going and heartless' scoundrel, and the offenses for which he was sentenced to transportation for life were only Incidents In a long career of wrongdoing. Whether he really confessed that he poisoned the unfortunate Miss urging In extension that she had very thick ankles, may be doubted, but quite enough has been proved to his discredit. At the same time It Is Improbable that he would ever, like Herr Karl May, have returned to respectability, even If the opportunity had been allowed him. Another and less known man of letters who combined literature with crime was George Barrlngton, transported to Lotany Bay for pocket picking in 1790. He did recover his character, became high constable of Paramatta, and was much thought of In official circles for his geod conduct His literary fame resti mainly on the often quoted description of the true patriots "Be it understood, we left our country for our country's good."

The board's action, approved by Secretary Dickinson, seeks to Improve everything the soldier carries except clothing, ammunition and rifle. Comfort and light weight are the chief desideria. The new accouter-ment- s will weigh 88 pounds, or seven pounds lighter than the old, the difference meaning that the infantry can march longer and with less fatigue. The old equipment was the subject of criticism by troops in the field, particularly In the Philippines. Waste In Washington. It costs a great deal to run a big city, and It costs nearly as much for waste as It does for things. For instance, it has been discovered that defective service pipes connected with business houses and residences in Washington were responsible during the last fiscal year for the loss of nearly five million gallons of water a day. There was an awful kick In congress over paying for a water register and for Inspectors, but the visited 21,642 houses during the year, and found leaking fixtures In 3,305 of them, and underground leaks were discovered, saving to the water supply system over 6,564,190 gallons h per day. That amount Is equal to of the total dally water consumption of the District of Columbia. one-tent- ; ', feast to their hearts' content. On tbe three annual festivals this "gheber" becomes a spectacle probably In the annals of court dinners. An Italian traveler who has been privileged to be present describes It In a letter to the "Corrlere." The background of the barnlike structure which serves as dining room Is all but filled with tbe famous throne bed which the French republic had presented to the late King Menelek; the present negus, on the occasion of the state dinner, sat on the edge of It when the European visitors, the first to enter the room, filed past him, each one being received with a smile and a shake of the hand. As soon as they were seated and began to eat, King Jarsu also began, but his state dignitaries have to wait till their lord, after a while, gives the sign that they also may fall to. The Abyssinian royal menu is sprung as a surprise on the European who bas expected either the food of primitive man or the concoctions of a French chef. There are six courses, butjtbey do not vary much, the chief ingredients of all being the flesh of fowls. The table service Is a curious medley of costly, beautiful gold vessels and broken crockery of the cheapest kind. The Europeans use knives and forks, tbe Abysslnlans are fed by slaves. A strange silence pervades the room during the three hours from 10 a. m. to 1 p. m. while the feast Is going on, and you hear the distant sound of the great crowd waiting Impatiently for admittance, and the beating of the drums in honor ot the archangel Gabriel at the church close by. The moment the Europeans have ended their meal the curtains are drawn' aside and through every door tbe stream of natives pours in. There are 80 tables, each one in charge of an overseer and four assistants, and from five to six thousand Abysslnlnns are in an Incredibly short time engaged In feeding and talking at the same time at the top of tbelr voices. Each table Is served by eight slave-who are kept bard at work supplying tbe diners with great lumps of raw meat, with which they eat the leaves-oa native vegetable, the anghera. They eat enormous quantities of both, drinking honey water, the national beverage, out of gigantic horns. As soon as one crowd Is satisfied it has to make room for another, and all the time the musicians are doing their utmost on trumpets, flutes and other instruments to add to the deafening din. of Children. .
