A Cheerful Home

A single bitter word may disquiet an
entire family for whole day: one surly
glance casts shadow over the house
hold. But smile may light up the
darkest and dreariest hours. No mat
ter how humble the abode, if it is thus
garnished with grace and kindness the
heart will turn lovingly toward it from
the tumult of the world without.
The gentle grace of the mother of
such home remains to be seen in her
daughter and the fatherly kindnesss
finds its echo in the nobility and courte-
sy of the sons. On the other hand,
from an unhappy, misgoverned home
go forth those who will make other
homes unhappy and perpetuate the sad
ness, contentious and strife of their
own early lives.

Everlasting Cement Tank.

A cement tank may be built in any
desired form-round, square or OBJ
long-and of any size to suit the pur-
pose for which it is intended. Dig a
trench in the soil to inches deep or
down to solid earth, making it about u
inches wide. Fill this with concrete,
using yard of gravel to barrel of
cement. Thoroughly mix the two while
dry. When put in place, moisten and
tamp down solid. For the bottom of
the tank make floor 6 inches thick
and of the same materials laid on well
settled, solid earth. Then build the
walls of the tank. making them 10
inches thick at the bottom and inches
at the top. Wooden forms will have to
be used for this purpose. Each layer
of concrete should be well tamped down
to insure making the walls solid. Just
before the concrete hardens put coat
of cement one part of cement to two
of sifted sand-on the walls, both in
side and outside and on the floor.
While building the walls. re-enforce
them with No. 4 wire placed from to
IA inches apart, according to the dis
tance from the bottom and height of
the tank. Old fence wire will answer
the same purpose if more strands are
used. A pipe provided with a valve
should be placed in the floor of the
tank and connected with tile drain
underground to provide for cleaning.
An overflow pipe should also be placed
near the top and be connected with the
drain tile leading from the bottom.
