Home Circle
Before il IS Too Late.

Before II loo Late.
IF you've a grxy-haired mother
In the old home far away,
Sit down and write the letter
You put off day by day.
Don't wait until her tired steps
Reached Heavens pearly gate,
But show her that you think OF her
Before it is too late.
II you've a tender message
Or a loving word to say,
Don't wait till you've forgot it
Bot whisper II today.
Who knows what bitter memories
Nav haunt you IL you wait?
So make your loved n happy
Before it is too late.
The tender words unspoken,
The letters never sent
The long forgotten messages,
The wealth Of love unSpent.-
For these some hearts are breaking, {
For these some loved ones wait, i
So show them that you care for them
Before it is too late.
One kind thought spoken is worth
two unsaid.
A girl never marries her ideal. One
reason is that she sedan finds him,
and when she does she doesn't like
him.
Be ter simple food with pleasure
than Injuries with annoyance and
worry.
There is a difference in "intelli-
gent" dressing and philosophical
dressing. The first is to keep your
dress up with fashionable fads, and
the latter is to keep your pocketbook
up with your dress.
Right here is the secret ofawkward-
ness. 1t is Sclf-conciouSness. A girl
who thinks about how she is going to
look when she extends Der hand will
hold it out as stiff as a pump handle.
II she is worried about the appearance
OF her walk she will stalk over the
LANDSCAPE like a wooden dummy.
What a person does gracefully is done
unconsciously. So if a person would
learn grace she must first learn how
to do things unconSciOusly and she
can only learn to do things uncon-
sciously by doing them often.

is IT CRUEL FOR A MAN
TO PRAY FOR HIS, WIFE
Especial TO The Sentinel J

Denver. Feb. 19.-Does praying
over ones wife constitute a form of
cruelty which is legitimate cause for
divorce?
This question was brought up in
directly in the divorce case of Mrs.
Anna Hewitt against Elmer Hewitt,
tried before Judge Dixon yesterday
Mrs. Hewitt persuaded her hus-
band to accompany her to a concert
and after their return home he of
fered up a prayer asking the Lord to
lead them to see what great sinners
they were for indulging in temporal
pleasures. Mrs. Hewitt claimed that
her husbands action so tormented
her that she became nervous wreck.
She was granted a divorce.

Hanford, Wash

The Daily Sentinel:
have long intended to write
line in regard to this wonderful land
on the Columbia river, an empire of
80, 900 acres, rich river-washed sand
loam-not an acre of poor soil to be
found on the whole vast tract and
none but can be irrigated to the best
advantage.
While it is what is known as
crown land it will require very little
leveiing. in fact hundreds of acres
require no leveling at all. No alkali,
the ground is underlaid with a heavy
body of lava which makes the very
best for fruit raising and the valley
being protected by the mountains on
either side gives us splendid eli
mate in winter. Spring opens early
IN March and long summer follows.
Vegetables growing up as late as
November ..
We are able to grow two crops of
potatoes every season and being the
earliest in the spring with new po-
tatoes we reap the benefit OF high
prices. Sweet potatoes grow to an
enormous size and yield per acre is
great. They do as well as your Grand
valley potato. We beat the famous
Yakima valley. in vegetables. straw
berries and being ten days earlier we
| have another advantage over Yakima.
Many of the products that grow very
successfully in the Southern states
are found here, such as melons. pea
nuts. etc. The prices secured for the
vegetable products here about equal
those received in the Grand valley.
This is a wonderful section, ideally
situated on a great river
Our advantage of irrigation is good
under canal that has cost in the
neighborhood OF one million dollars
to complete. The canal has cement
walls and bottom from end to end, a
distance of sixteen miles. rendering it
impossible for it to ever give way or
leak. For drinking water there are
| springs bubbling out at frequent in
tervals along the banks of the river.
AS to game and fish it is the hunt
er's paradise. The nearby foothills
abound in all kind of game while the
valley is swarming with sage hens,
grouse. geese. ducks and the fish in
I the Columbia is noted.

Business Opportunity.

For sale the best paying business
in Grand Junction. We have decided
to dispose of our Seed Department
located at 327 Main street, Grand
Junction. This has proved to be a
good paying business ever since we
owned it but have decided that we
will confine our future business more
strictly to the fruit and growers
supplies. Any business man can
handle this seed business profitably
even though he has not had previous
experience in this particular line.

Warning to Our Patrons.

A report has been freely circulated
throughout the valley that Mr.. John
Moore & Company had taken over
our works and that we had quit the
business.
We wish to inform the public that
such statements are false. Mr.. John
Moore does not own or control a
share of our stock, has nothing to do
with our works, but has handled our
product for the last three years.

The Farmers Daughter.

The farmers daughter should be the pride of the household, says the Farm Star She is the future mother of the men who are to continue the great work of building up and main taining the dignity and prestige of the greatest calling in the greatest coun- try in the world
 With this thought in view. the daughter of the household should be shielded from the toughest of life's experiences, she should have all the pleasures and comforts that the finan- cial condition of the family will per, init, and should get as good an educa- tion as the boys. She should have her own pin money, earned from poul try or other farm sources, and should be taught to be independent and high thinking, and above all womanly and modest The health and happiness Of the daughter should be the first care of the parents, with the health and contentment of the boys only less care because they are more robust and s0lfreliant.

 We are fighting the battle of the producer of the wealth of the country, the most wonderful country in history

 We are saying to the man whose toll feeds and clothes nearly hundred

 Without organization and co-opera- tion. without education and persistent, nevertiring effort, without sacrifice and obedience to discipline you can never attain the true reward for your labor, you can never rise as a class above the hardships and the oppres-
 sions that have always been visited uDOn the man who creates wealth in the sweat of his brow; you can never win the income to which you are en- titled. that you may properly feed and clothe and house and educate you wife | and your children.
