The Century in 1905.

The lavish promises of year ago
were splendidly fulfilled in The Cen
tury during 19O5-its verse and essays,
its pictures and fiction, its articles of
timely interest and permanent value,
went beyond all promise and expecta-
tion. The feast in 1905 will be even
richer than in 1905. There will be
the pew novel by Mrs. Humphry Ward,
"Fenwick's Career" new humorous
serial by the creator of "Susan Clegg,"
and short stories by the ablest and
most popular writers of the day. There
will be authoritive accounts of such
wonderful work as our construction of
the Panama canal. W. S. Harwood
will tell OF "Saving California 8
Crops" The director of Cornell's g
School Of Agriculture, Professor L. H.
Bailey, will discuss the important
problem of the young man and the
farm. There will be many other arti-
cles of kindred value and interest.

Healthy Children,

Without good health life is not worth
living. Sickly, peevish children are a
source of endless trouble and anxiety
to their parents, yet the children's con-
dition is frequently due to their par
ents' ignorance or thoughtlessness, or
both.
To make children healthy and tn
keep them in that condition it is ne
cessary to feed them proper food and
to see that they get plenty of exercise
and fresh air. Meat is very bad for
children. 1t should be avoided and
food rich in phosphates, such as Pills
bury's Vitos, should be given in its
place.
This food is truly the "meat of the
wheat" 1t is made by the world e
greatest millers and it is free from arti-
fetal coloring or aduteration. 1t is
not especially a child's food. Your
whole family will enjoy this common
sense cereal. 1t makes a wholesome,
substantial breakfast or an appetizing
dessert, and can be prepared in one
hundred different ways.
Every god grocer will supply you
with Pillsbury's Vitos. Large package
- enough to make twelve pounds Of
strength-building food, zoe. Ask your
grocer about it today.

Polly Dexter her most Intimate
friend, came bursting in.
"Thank goodness you've come at

ing. "You have saved my life. | want

Poor Pollyw commiserated the teas

"Oh, just the ones you KNOW" re-

"Did you know that the Thurbers had

She looked at Peggy curlously as she
spoke, but her friends face was as
calm and innocent as that of baby.
Peggy rose and said in carefully

Day of the Rolling Stone,

In that place called Monte Carlo
every time the wheel turns and the
ball oils into it's place it marks a
fresh condition of the kane, an abso-
lutely new chance which has nothing
whatever to do with anything that has
gone before or is to appear in the fu-
ture.- Each spin is the year l of the
bank. Therefore the bank wins.
America has appreciated the year ],
and that fact has not been unconnect-
ed with yankee success. You will find
that man loses money as farmer,
a mechanic, book canvasser and sud
denly rises to wealth as builder. The
peg has found the hole at last.
An Englishman, unappreciative of
the year l, would have been chained
to failure by the precedent of centu-
ries. He would have argued that ne
had always been farmer, that his
father was a farmer and his uncle a
dairyman. Therefore it was plainly
impossible that he could ever make
money as builder. In conclusion
ne would have quoted you that falls.

TO IMPROVE THE LAWN.
It Need Not Take a Great Deal of Time
or Money to Better the Con-
dition of Yard.

A great many good farmers will tell
you the only way to improve a shabby
lawn is to thoroughly pillow 1t up, fertll-
lie and sow to grass, or else strip OF
the sod and completely cover the naked
soil with thick turf cut in the pas
ture where weeds are unknown. Now
either of these tasks requires hard
work, and often the ladies may agi.
tate the question for years without
seeing anything accomplished. There
is no denying that many a lawn would
be improved by a thorough blowing,
but it would have to be done at a time
when other work pressed close upon
the farmer and the lawn is always put
of till a more convenient season.
If you did not sow seed upon the
snow in February to sink down and
make the bare spots green later on 1t
is still time enough to do a little work
in that direction. Before a gentle
spring rain SOW your seed thickly and
let it wash into the soil. While this
would never do on bare ground be-
cause the sun would bake it out. it
nevertheless helps a poor lawn greatly,
and what grass you already have will
shade the new till it gets a start. 1t
is impossible for the busy lady OF the
farm to put new sod all over the yard,
but she can patch up the old till it
looks very respectable. In England,
the best meadows have not been
plowed for hundreds of years. so it is
really o necessary to be digging all
the time to have a good lawn.
Then in the matter of fertilizing.
The farmer might think he could not
waste the time to hitch up and cart
manure to the front yard on a busy
spring day. but If the children load the
wheelbarrow he. will push 1T to the
house without a word, and 1T is an easy
task to rake it in where it is most
needed. OF course, the first requisite
is to have the dead grass. trash and
everything raked off the lawn before
beginning, so there will be no trouble
later on in cutting the grass. Suppose
you take one section at a time or de-
vote half an hour each day to the
lawn. You will soon see a decided inn
prOvement. and in time the place will
be changed So o will hardly know 1t.
