Do farmers eat the proper sort Of food

Do farmers eat the proper sort Of food
The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
It's good thing that this is SO because
he has great variety to select from.
He should. however. use great care
in selecting for the best results in
health and strength.
The widespread tendency in the city
to increase the amount of Quaker Oats
eaten is due very largely to the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor.
Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase
the quantity OF Quaker Oats eaten by
themselves, their children and the
farm hands. 81

DOUBLE REWARD OF VIRTUE
Love Story Written by Small Boy at
Least Brought Things to
Happy Conclusion.

Apropos Of love stories in general.
Jerome s. McWade. the well-known
Duluth connoisseur, said at a recent
dinner:
AT the approach of Valentine day
last year l offered a prize OF five dol
lars to the little boys Of my Sunday
school class for the best short love
story. | have one of the stories here,
and am going to read 1t to you"
Mr. McWade then read:
"A poor man fell in love with a lady
whose mother was rich toy dealer.
The poor man could not marry the
rich lady. because he had no money.
"A villain then offered him $50 il he
would become a drunkard
The poor man wanted the money to
get married with, SO he agreed, but
when he got to the beer saloon he
said.
No, will not become a drunkard,
even for great riches
On the way home he found a bag
of gold. So the young lady married
him. 1t was a splendid wedding, and
the next day they had twins.

Danger In Single Eyeolasa.

Never use a single eyeglass unless
there Is difference in power between
the two eyes and the glass is used to
bring the power of the defective eye
up to that Of the other The differ.
ence in power is known as astig.
matism. and such an eyeglass would
have to be recommended, after careful
sight testing. by a professional opti-
clan or oculist. When the eyes are
equal in power. an eyeglass sets up
inequality. equal in effect to real astis.
matism. OF course. that is not the
case when the glass is quite nat: but
even then its use is bad. for It teaches
the user to look chiefly through one

II She Had Her Choice,

A gentleman who finds great amuse,
ment in telling his wife which lady of
their acquaintance he will select as
her successor when she dies. and who,
one day, had been teasing her with
numberless mock-serious illusions to
the subject, suddenly called their lit
tie daughter to him and asked her,
shaking with laughter at his own wit:
Madeline, how would you like to
have stepmother?"
The child considered for a moment
and then with great earnestness re-
piled:
II think I'd much rather have a
stepfather"

bowl filled with spring flowers, over

of the colors predominating in the
