GEYSER JUDITH BASIN TIMES trades of life opening their doors to admit the enterprising women. Some are going into their own and some are. going into other people's business. In our admiration for the new women there is danger of forgetting the wife and mother and woman's true sphere as a home maker. Mrs. ‘Vilson, wife of the president- elect, is said to happy knack of map- ing an unnattractive garden into a thing of beauty. In fact, those who have I seen what she did with the Princeton \ garden conclude that she has quite a talent for landscape gardening and i could have made her living in that way if the fates had not ordained that she would be the first lady in the land.

Multiply any given number of gnats by the number of days of interest de- sired, separate the right hand figute, and divide by six, the result is the true interest for such sum for such number of days at six per cent. This rule is so simple and so true, according to all business uses, that every banker. bitak- er, merchant or clerk should post it up for reference. There being no such thing as a fraction in it, there is scarcely any liability to error or mistake. By no other arithmetical process can the desired information be obtained by so few figures.

After which he left, later he was followed by the meaiuring man who had come out here soley for the purpose of getting the correct measure- ments of the articles and incidently to get another deposit to show more good faith.

As the salesmaes agree- ments were all verbal the ranchers have no recourse and if they wish the suits for which they have already paid, it will be necessary for them to pay this additional cearge which almost totals the price charged for the goods. by salesman.
