QUICK'S PILLS

As Others Sci Us.

1.-THE man. who can pick out the best
picture Of himself is a rare bird"
said a photographer. Even an au-
thor, who is repeatedly a good judge
of his own work, exercises vast wis
dom in selecting his best book, COM
pared with the person who tried to
choose his best photograph. Every
famous man or woman who has been
photographed repeatedly has his or
her favorite picture. Usually 1t is
the worst in the collection. 1t shows
him or her with an unnatural express
sion, sitting or standing in an I'M
natural attitude.
THE inability to judge of his best
picture must be due to the average
mans ignorance OF how he really
looks, or perhaps it can be partly at
tributed to a desire to look other
than he does. A stout man Will
swear that the photograph most
nearly like him is the one that makes
him look thin; thin man, the one
that makes him look stout; the SOL
emn man selects the joliest picture;
the jovial man the most cadaverous.
President Roosevelt is about the only
man whose favorite picture is the
one most photographers would pro-
nounce the best, but then exception
al judgment on his part is expected
all along the line"

old FASHIONED MOTH
ERS GETTING SCARCE
Modern Mothers Think More Of
Beauty and Fashion than
Of Household Duties.

There aren't as many old-fashioned
mothers nowadays. just as there aren't
as many middle-aged women. Our moth
ers are very dear, no doubt, and very
pretty and lovable. And OF course the
are tremendously fond OF their chill
dren, and their children are tremen-
or other many of them aren't like
those gentle mothers of yesterday.
And 1t is only once in awhile that we
meet one of the real old-fashioned
kind.
She is not at all interested inJwhat
is being worm" this old-fashioned
mother, and she has serene disre-
gard for what people say" She
seems just to be living her gentle,
strong, wholesome life for her fami-
ly and not to care at all whether
clothes and persons and ideas are
fashionable" or not. She never mas
sages her face TO keep the wrinkles
away or has her hair marcelled OF
chooses corsets that will give her
youthful lines" and yet, If she
ever chances to be among any OF thes
ultra-modern women who refuse to
be middle-aged, it is the old-fashion-
ed mother who is indeed the most
MISUNDERSTANDING of them all.
Although she has never won a prize
at a bridge tournament or driving
four-in-hand at the horse show or en-
tertained in her box during the opera
season, her life has been by no means
dull nor eventful. The children have
always required a great deal of care,
and there have been some stormy
seasons through which she has had
to steer the family boat herself. When
times were hard and things had gone
to pieces in the panic, and her hus-
bands health had given way, she
took charge of affairs, as matter of
course The business fell into her
hands for awhile, and she set it all
on its feet again; troublesome
business it was, too, although she
never talked about 1t nor seemed TO
regard her management of 1t as at
all extraordinary. 1t was simply the
only thing there was to do. And of
course she had to shoulder all her
own family cares at the same time,
and John never liked to have any
one else near him when he was sick.
Her sons and daughters. growing up,
have always come to her with their
joys and sorrows. their victories and
defeats. And though there be those
who say that her devotion has made
her life a constant sacrifice to her
children, those boys and girls are
stronger men and women because she
has started their lives Alright and
has given them, almost without their
knowing it, the wonderful power of
her example to live by. She has never
hesitated to do anything, however
hard or disagreeable or even mental
it may have been, for those whom she
loved. She has never been afraid of
growing old. She has never clamor-
ed for recognition or credit" or
gratitude.
She never talks about herself,the
old-fashioned mother. She never in
sists upon herself. She has the re-
serve of other days. Her life has
been one long act of giving. And
10 all those who come near her,her
presence brings the cool beauty of
an evenings benediction.

NEW SCHOOL FOR FARMERS
PRternnIistic Plan Dependent on re-
suits of Neat Years
Census.

Should the taking OF the census Of 1910 be
conducted strictly along the broad lines
already marked out for it, one OF the Incl
dental results will be to establish a
course OF practical business training for
farmers which promises large and sub
stantial results. one fault of many. per
haps Of a majority, Of our farmers is that
they do little or no huohl Cpinr As 81 rule,
the farmer who sits down to reckon up
the results of his years vur. has 20 base
his calculations upon facts drawn from
memory or from records which are in
complete as we'll as unbusiuysslike and
untrustworthy.
The government, through tho mechanism
Of the Census bureau, seeks 20 abolish this
slipshod system Of farm accounting and
persuade farmers TO replace 1T with definite
business forms like those used In other
extensive enterprises. The change, Il Is
pointed out, would be valuable not only
to the farmer himself, but to the govern
ment. The farmer who at the end Of the
season is unable to present a clear, COM

harmony without any greater effort or eX-
pense on the part of a house builder to
obtain the necessary requisites.
There are other styles which have been
growing in favor, but which are sbhorred
by almost as many people as those who
look upon them with favor. These are the
mission and craftsman styles. Although
similar, they are not one and the same
as many people believe. The mission style
as ADAPTED TO domestic architecture Is
sometimes referred to in a slurring way
as dry goods box architecture" While
the style calls for a square and severely

Of 80 severe a crltisism. II the mission
style is adopted for the exterior of a home,
it should be carried out throughout the
interior, both in the design OF the rooms
and the furnishings. An appropriate style
for a door would be the sanitary door, or
a door without panels. The ceiling should
be beam ceiling mot paneled ceiling) with
the beams Of solid wood actually carrying
the floor above and not plastered between.
All door castings, base boards, etc, should
be perfectly plain strips of wood without
moulding. The stair treads should be two
inch planks. the newell a perfectly square
post and the handrail without moulding
The balister should be severely plain. The
entire structure, inside and out, including
furniture, should look as II any boy with
a mechanical turn of mind could make all
its wooden parts in his work shop with
ordinary carpenters tools.
