THE AGRICULTURAL DoN'T.-Don't set
tie down to the belief that red clover won't
grow on the farm. Try it.
Don't believe thai berries and the larger
fruits are not wholesome in the family, but
save health and obtain pleasure cheaply, by
planting all that will grow.
Don't fix the fence partly to-day with a
promise to do it better next week. That
time does not come until damage to be re-
GREETED has been done.
Don't be content with half crop when a
little more labor will bring full one.
Don't try to get something out of nothing.
Don't wait too much on the weather.
Don't 60 off dissatisfied because you don't
get rich by farming in a year or two.
Don't discourage your children by con-
slant complaints about your farm business.
Don't buy a new farm tool until you know
just how you can pay for it.
Don't 60 fishing as long as the axe and hoe
need sharpening.
Don't forget that if you waste no time in
attending to them, your crops will grow
nights and Sundays.
Don't abolish farm accounts, but make
each cultivated field pay something above
expenses annually.
Don't forget that very few acres in fruit
will often pay all theexpenses of an average
family.
Don't use "cuss words" with any expecta-
tion of making them mend broken harness.

YOUNG JARPHLEY's SCHEME No GOOD.
"Pah," said young Jarphley, 'I've got a
scheme"
"Ah! wot is it my son ?" cautiously asked
his father.
sTo raise money-lots of it," enthusias-
tically responded the Jarphleys' heir.
"How?"
"Why, you get on horsecar and fall off
and break your leg, and NAH and I'll sue
the company"
"It won't work, Johnnie" snappishly re-
piled Mrs. Jarphley. "We couldn't prove
that it disabled him from following his

THE LADIES' FRIEND
Washing Machine.
TIME AND LABOR SAVED !!

yUyHISis is the best Machine for the purpose that
has yet been placed before the public, eclips-
ing all others and well sustaining its name of
"LADIES' FRIEND" In the use of the ma
chine, there is no wear on the clothes, and but
slight exertion is required by the operator.
With it any garment can be washed that can be
washed by the hands, in one-third of the time,
and with one. third Of the labor 1t does not in
lure the finest fabric. To try it is to buy it |!
Read the following certificate from well known
and reliable citizens of York county:
We have used the Ladies' Friend Washing
Machine in our families, and are we'll pleased
with it. The machine is all that is claimed for it,
doing the work well and satisfactorily, in one
third of the time, and with onethird of the labor
required to perform the same work by hand. We
have no hesitancy in recommending it as a great
help in the household.
