Gsing Back to Farms.

Just after the war, when inflated
prices painted pictures of fortunes
in all kinds of city and town voca-
tions-when MISUNDERSTANDING and
the agency business were supposed
to yield wealth almost without LIN
1t, and when it was believed that
fortunes could be made by merely
organizing some sort of stock com
pany, and putting the shares on the
market, there was a general flock
ing of young men from farms to
cities and towns to get rich without
labor. But that deluslon has end
e6 IN bitterness and disappoint-
ment to thousands all over the land
and proving that the game OF liv
ing by the wits is one that very few
can thrive at.
We are beginning to realize that
farming possesses one pre-eminent
merritt will yield living if moth
ing more, and that is more than
can be said of many city pursuits.
1t is generally esteemed a ploddIng,
unromantic business; but this off
set by its exemption from the ha
easements and tragic features that
too often mark the painful and ex-
hausting struggle for the mainten-
ance of credit and social position in
city life. 1t requires but small
capital to go farming. This offers
a simple solution to the livelihood
problem to all who are willing
to WORK, and it is gratifying to find
that the fact is beginning to be re-
allied by many weary OF prolonged
idleness in cities.-St. Louis Rep'n.

Hints to Those Calling Upon the Sick.

l. Only cali at the door, unless
you are sure your friend is able TO
see you without harm.
2. Enter and leave the house and
move about the room quietly.
3 Carry a cheerful face, and
speak cheerful words.
4. In order to cheer you need tell
no lies.
5. If your friend is very sick, do
not fall into gay and careless talk in
the attempt to be cheerful.
6. Don't ask questions and thus
oblige your friend to talk.
Z. Talk about something outside,
and not about the disease and cir
cumstances of the patient,
8. Tell the news, but not the list
of the sick and dying.
8. II possible, carry something
with you to please the eye and re
lieve the monOtony OF the sick
room; dover or even picture
which you can loan for few days
10. If desirable, some little deli
eacy to tempt the appetite will be
well bestowed.
IL. The perfume of some flowers
is poisonous, and they should never
be carried into the sick-roOm. rs
peciaIly is this true OF the tuberose.
oleander, heliotrope, hyacinth, or
ange and lilac, syringia and lilies.
II. Stay only a moment, or few
minutes at the longest, unless You
can be of some help.

Our Young People
MADE Up rROn THE BEST CLIPPINGS.
Saving for Old Age.

No one denies that il is wise to
make provision for old age. but we
are not al. agreed as to the kind of
provision 1t is best to lay in. Ger
tainly we shall want a little money,
for destitute old man is indeed q
sorry sight Yes, save money by
all means. But an old man needs
Just that particular kind of strength
which young men are most apt to
waste. Many a foolish young fell
low will throw away on a holiday q
certain amount of nervous energy
which he will never feel the want of
until he is seventy, and then how
much he will want it, 1t is curious
but true that a bottle of champagne
at twenty will intensity the rheuma-
tism at Jhree-score. 1t is fact
that everlasting the eyes at fO1r-
teen necessitates the aid of specta-
Giles at forty instead of sixty. We
advise our young readers 10 be saw
ing of health for their old age, for
the maxim holds good in regard to
health as to money-"Waste not,
want not" 1t is the greatest mis-
take to suppose that the violation
of the laws of health can escape the
penalty. Nature forgives no sin,
no error, she lets off the offender
for fifty years sometimes, but she
catches him at last, and in6icts the
punishment just when, just where
and just how he feels it most. Save
up for old age, but save knowledge;
save the recollection of good and
noble deeds, innocent pleasures and
pure thoughts; save friends, save
love. Save rich stores of that kind
of wealth which time cannot dimin-
ish nor death take away.

Fools.

jupiter made a lottery in heaven,
in which mortals, as well as gods,

verifes the aptness of the illustra

abroad in the land ever since the

HARoL1SE HAROLD, EDIroR.
Ladies' Lingerie.

The newest collar flares about an
inch from the leck and hes round
ed corners, delicately hemstitched.
The cuffs correspond. The turn
down collars are obsolete, and
straight collars are hemstitched in
groups and horizontal lines. The
latest cuff is either straight or
square and many of them have lit
tie hemstitched revers. With these
dainty collars are worn cravat ties
of lawn embroidered in French nee
die work or trimmed with the fash
ionable Breton lace, which is sim
ply fine lace footing darned with
white floss and fine thread. such as
our foremothers used TO do in
frames in place of wool embroidery.
There is a passion for Breton lace
extending into hundreds of yards
used on delicate white and colored
lawn dresses, on neck ties, bonnet
strings, bonnets and wherever lace
can be used properly. The price of
this pretty lace ranges for the mar
rowest, % cents up to So, and,
81 for the widest. Charming pei
crimes made of null muslins will be
among the dainty dishes set before
US by fashion. They are cut on the
bias and fashioned about four inch
es wide in the center narrowing to
one inch, and are finished with a
row of pleated Breton lace all
around. Pretty neck kerchiefs of
null, lace, silk muslin, and crepe de
chine are cut bias and trimmed
around with lace. Many OF these
delicate conceits are exquisitely EN-
broidered with shaded silks in gar
lands of small flowers, and others
have small jabots of lace and a.clus
ter of ribbon bows with a flower in
the center. The present rage is for
vests of black satin, embroidered
linen, lawn, or embroidered silk, or
indeed of any fabric made plain,
tucked with lace or Hamburg inser
tiop or pulled.
There is great demand for silk
painted by hand in bands for trim
ming dresses. Some of the young
lady amateur artists paint these
strips with beautiful garlands OF
flowers, a bee or butterfly here and
there, on black or white silk Tor
their own use or dispose of them
very advan tageously to others. In
the difficulties attending the proper
placing of a pocket for which there
really seems no available spot Sc
cure from the street thief, bags are
becoming more than ever fashiona-
BILE, and are frequently made of
portion of the dress and there do
not escape the passion for embroid-
cry; made of velvet they are richly
embroidered, and have also the mi
tials or monogram embroidered in
gold or silver thread, or else in col
ored silks. These are mounted IN
nickel frames and have the chain
and chatelaine hook attached TO the
belt. Some ladies prefer the bright,
pretty ribbons instead of the chain,
which can be passed through the
belt and secured before being
clasped.

ANp USEFUL INFoRMAr1oN.
Raising Sheep in Georgia.

A writer in the Atlanta (Ga. }
Constitution says that in 1871
he bought 400 acres OF reputed
poor land in Glynn county, Geor-
gia,and put upon it 100 sheep. In
1878, by natural increase, he had
376 ewes, and had sent to market
70 wethers. His sheep were penned
nightly, and every two nights ma
nured halt acre well. Since that
time he had brought into a high
state of cultivation 100 acres of
land that seven years ago was con-
sidered worthless. Since 1871 he
has bought 200 sheep, and now
owns 1900 head He keeps a shep-
herd, who is paid to attend TO his
business, and keeps an accurate
book account of the sheep, and
finds, by casting up balance sheet,
that it costs him exactly 81 cents
per aRnum to keep his flock. They
average him about 81 pounds of
wool each. Last year he clipped IN
Nay, and again in September, and
the clip amounted to 81 per head.
Last year he sold in Savannah and
Macon 5000 pounds of wool, at an
average of 30 cents per pound, in
Guiding a few pounds of merino
wool, which makes the gross re-
ceipts $2970. The annual expenses
OF the flock was $I026. So there
was an absolute net profit in the
wool OF 1894. Last year he sold
in the above cities 80 wethers as
mutton for $342, making , total of
$22S6. Besides this he has fertil-
lied the poor wire grass land, so
that last year he cultivated 81 acres
and from Al acres in corn he made
an average of 81 bushels; 10 il su-
gar cane, that made 56 barrels of
syrup; 10 in oats that averaged 43
bushels to the acre and on the re-
mainder an abundance of all kinds
OF truck farming, receiving for his
sales of vegetable in New York a
net profit of 1924.
