There was middle aged paaeen-

his junior. We hadn't been out three
days before the young wife was daft
about Trevor and the husband green
with jealousy. Then there was an
old maid who would sit moping on
deck till Trevor appeared. when she
would languish till he joined her and
look inexpressibly happy IL he did
so for even few minutes. And so

Again In Journalism

{F'rom the Whitewater Register, April 9th.
Colonel j. A. Watrous, who has been
a resident of Whitewater the past two
years, has returned to journalism, his
profession between wars. He is the
representative of Uncle Sans Maya
zine for the district composed of Wis
consin, Illinois and Minnesota, as we'll
as one of its regular contributors. The
magazine is in it's fourteenth volume
For some years it has been the Army
and Navy Life, the ablest, most inter
esting and most valuable publication of
its character in this or any other coun-
try. The company, strong one in all
ways, having planned to enter the
broadcast possible field of magazine
Journalism, to make their publication in
all respects national, and even more, in
It's characterize make it of interest
and real value to any one or all of our
ninety millions of people-deemed it
wise to give it new name-to call it
Uncle Sans Magazine. No better
name could have been chosen, for in
truth it is our Uncle Sans Magazine,
the friend and advocate of all of his in
terests and of all of his people. The
new departure begins with the May
number. One of it's new features is
in the adoption of permanent policy
of broad, practical, earnest friendship
for the National Guard of the country
giving it the same type of friendship
and effective advocacy that it has long
given to the Army and Navy. 1t is no
longer to be class publication. No
pains or expense are spared to place it
in the front rank of American maya
zines. Colonel WatrouS' experience as
an editor, writer, soldier in two wars,
his travels in this and other countries,
his tireless industry, habit of close OBJ
servation, and his love for the profess
sion, mark him as suitable member
of the large company of men and
women who are to make Uncle Sam S
Magazine tower of strength as the
friend of the republics interests, and a
prime favorite with other vast multi
tudes of citizens,

The Social Life That Was.

While country life has gained So
cially in many ways it has also lost
in large measure some social features
which we're the joy of young people
in former days. Thirty or more years
ago, and less than that in some Sec
tions, spelling bees, singing schools,
debating societies and other similar
doings were numerous, affording un-
told pleasure and no small benefit.
They made a needful break in ordin-
ary routine of farm life, and today
many look back longingly to the times
of their youth when merry parties of
young people, after the days work was
oyer, drove to the country school to
hear or take part in singing, debating
questions, or in spelling one another
down. Country life today, socially
and in other ways, is unquestionably
better than it was, and books, papers
and other material are now plentiful
in the farm home as once they were
scarce. Still it is doubtful if any of
the young people of today get more
genuine satisfaction out of the advan-
tages they possess, than their fathers,
and mothers got in their youth from
the social doings which frightened
long winter night.-Exchange.

face.
Grabbing it, with a shrek she hurl'

ing, she found the snake lying in a
corner of the room and killed it with
a cane. The snake measured three
feet, four inches in length.

THE CID FARM.

When the busy Cay is ever with its
anxious hopes and fears,
And the telephone stops ringing and
the last clerk disappears
With sigh lean back weary in my
swinging Office chair,
And my thoughts go back to child
hood and the old farm that is
there.
I can see the dear old homestead,
broad and low, beneath the trees,
And the row of shining milkpans SUM-
ming in the fresh, sweet breeze;
I can see the barn and horses, and
the orchard on the hill,
Where we gathered golden pippins for
the old straw cider mill.
I can see the upland pastures dotted
DER with grazing sheep,
And the wheat field waving golden,
ready for the men to reap.
can see the old stone fences where
the chipmunks used to play,
And the cornfeld, and the meadow
with it's piles of fragrant hay.
I can see the cattle standing meath the
willows of the brook
Where I used to fish for minnows with
a bent pin for a hook;
And the pond where grew the lilies
that my mother used to prize;
All, the light of heavens shining now
within those dear old eyes.
And sigh while fancy fingers DER
each well-known pleasant scene
Of the happy days of boyhood thrown
ty memory on the scene;
And I'd give all have gained since,
all my wealth and treasures rare,
To 20 back again to childhood and
the old farm that is there.

1t Is not strange that a man like Pro-

his time and thought TO the promotion of
the movement to Increase health and de-

enormous and irresistible In their all 10
men who know.
But Dr. Fisher has another reason TO
feel that the movement Is altogether
plausible and worth whie-a reason found
In personal experience In prolonging
his own life when II seemed certain that
IL must end while he was still young
man.
In 1884 DR.. Fishers father died Of tu-
berculosis and few years later he him
self was attacked by the same disease.
He took himself In hand Immediately,
went west for time, lived In the open
back east again to his work. But he
found that he was still not ft-he
couldn't work-nOt as he used to work.
He lacked what he called 'effciency'-
ability to focus his mind on a subject
and keep 1t there, sharp and clear. Then
he ran acrOc3 a good physician.
