WHAT MEN LIKE IN WOMEN

Men like little feet, but as all feet
cannot be little they also admire WELL
shaped feet. and all feet can be we'll
shaped
A pretty foot is a weli-dressed foot,
and it is easy TO dress g. foot we'll 1t
is curious 20 see with what unsightly
footwear some women provide them
selves, when they could with the same
outlay be so daintily shod
Then there is something about the
light-colored boot that appeals to n
mans sense of romance. 1t makes a
woman more ethereal than the prosaic
black shoe
Men like dainty manicuring. They
are exceedingly sensitive to the ap-
pearance of the fingers. and If a wo-
man can present a really well keot
pair of hands she has done a great doal
in the battle of admiration.
Men like bare hands. There is some
thing babyish about a pair Of bare
hands. all devoid of rings. The sight
appeals TO a mans chivalry
Red hair is supposed to attract many
men. Next to that they like jet
black tresses. The medium shades are
less attractive. though gold colored
hair is very acceptable to a mans
sense of the beautiful.
Men like reposeful hands. They hate
hands that twitch and play with this
and with that. They like little child
ish hands. full of dimDles. hands that
like to lie in the Ian and rest.
Men like nice hair dressing. It is
really the hair they notice. and not the
style of the coiffure; it is the condition
of the hair itself that they observe.
Neglected looking hair they notice at
once.
They like hair that shines. hair that
is in place with each hair in studied
repose. They like hair that looks as
though it had been prettily arranged
Red haired women are fortunate
Men admire them. so those who pos
sess such tresses have no need to re-
gret it. as one so often hears them do
ing Men think that such hair is
beautiful.
Men like red cheeks, and the red
checked woman has become fashion,
able. A doctor says that the way to get
red cheeks is to pinch them with the
finger tips until the blood comes to the
surface.
Ask a man which of three women he
admires most and he viii unhesitat-
ingly pick out the one who is trimmest
as to boots and bindings; he admires
the well-groomed woman. A man likes
to see a well-hanging skirt. and he
does not stop to ask whether the gown
is a plain gingham or a costly silk.
What he likes is the look Of extreme
eatness.-Washington Times.

HOMES
FOR THE FARMERS

At Milford Grange on Saturday dis
cussion of the question, How can the
farmer have as attractive a home as
the city man of equal meansY' was
opened by Charles Barker.
There is no reason why the farmer
cannot have an attractive home but
as a rule he does not. If the farmer
will give the same time and means
to IT as the city man he could accom-
plsh the same results If the city
man is on a salary he has more leisure
and does not work so many hours as
the farmer. For every hour the farmer
has two hours work waiting TO be
done. The city man by rising early
can work in his yard or lawn before
going to his place of business and he
has plenty of water easily applied. II
would be a great help to the farmer
in making his home attractive TO have
an abundant and convenient supply Of
water. but not one I'm five hundred
has this. Every man who owns a farm
should arrange for a good supply Of
water. One reason for the farmer ne
glecting his home is his indifference
to appearances. He often does not care
how it looks. When driving through
the country one sees a house with fine
lawn, flowers and well kept trees it is
a bright spot and long remembered.
Another reason for so many neglected
looking farm homes is that the farmers
are tenants. The owners won't sup
ply these things neither will the tenant,
not knowing how soon he may move.
Where a man owns the farm where
he lives and there is no grass In the
door yard, and things are not kept
neat Il shows there is no desire to
improve the conditions. If a farmer
sets out with the same determinations
to fix up his place that he does to
raise corn or tomatoes he soon ac-
complishes IT, The city man has the
incentive of neighbors on either side
and across the street. The force Of
example is an powerful
B. T.. b. Woodall thinks farmers
when ready to retire from active life
make a mistake i'm building in town
when if they would spend the same
amount building on the farm and
beautifying the surroundings It would
add greatly to the attractiveness and
value of country property. Trolley
roads are doing much to make the
country more attractive
William IL Hopkins protested that
the farmer has more comforts than the
city man but the question was not one
Of comfort but attractiveness.
Lawn and Shade Trees.
J. j. Rosa speaking of his own home
said &c was the lawn and shade trees
that made it attractive TO all the fam
ily He would discard flower beds
and so be able 10 cut the grass quickly
and easily with the moving machine.
Any farmer can have water abundant
and convenient for not more than three
hundred dollars. This would supply
water to the house, cellar, barn and
yards. This sum would include cost
of bath room and fixtures and water
back for the kitchen stove. One mem
Der had recently installed a wind mill,
steel tank pump and pipe on a farm
at a cost Of less than one hundred dol
lars. The telephone adds much to the
attractiveness Of country life and re-
moves the feeling of isolation. The
farmer should keep his home nice and
tidy and the buildings painted

HANOVER SCHOOL
HAS ANNIVERSARY

The ninety third anniversary of the
Sunday school of Hanover Presbyter-
ian Church was celebrated last night.
Recitations, music and an address by
Chief Justice Lore occupied the atten-
tion of the audience.
Chief Justice Lore was in a happy
vein and he treated briefly of the his
tory Of Hanover Church, asserting that
it was 1856 years old and that it was
established in 1772, when it was known
as the Lower Christiana Church. In
1881 it became the Hanover Church.
The sunday school, he said, was or
ganized in 1914. and had continually
grown since that time. He said: Your
ministers have been a power in the
community and your laity has also con-
tributed much. This church has been
a man making and woman making
power. and know of no agency in this
great city that has done more to up
list the community than this church
and its Sunday school, Interesting
stories conveying good advice were re-
lated by the speaker.

and huge ruddy globes, the Wolf
Rivers. which have been known to
bring 20 cents apiece during the last
month. Prices, everybody knows by
this time. are away up in all fruits
and in apples especially. Some kinds
are bringing prices that are at least
25 per cent. higher than last year. But
sensible folk are standing by the king
of fruits and economizing, if need be,
in other directions. The old saying,
IAN apple a day keeps the doctor
away" Is trite to be sure. but contains
as much truth as it did before it be-

her that this attitude Of hers may
