acreage is not sufficient to furnish
employment for larger number OF

And wen keep right at it. too.
Yes, yes. my boys. know 1t is true
That we mean just what we say,
But afterwhile is a mythical place
In the realm of an unborn day.
The railway of life is supported to
Through the land Of this unborn

And the great afterwhile is station
there.
Where people do fine things. they
say.
But thousands, my boys. are travelling
this road.
Whose hands are as white as the
snow.
Who meant to stop of at the great
afterwhile
n the years of the long ago.
But somehow or other they never
quite reach
The place with the high.soundins

So they Travelled along with the rest
Of the crowd
Who huntedtspr fortune and fame
Yet fort me meier came to
And IN WI they come to you
e Won Na1ksto begin in the great after

~ the grand things you mean to

It's best. then, to begin right here,
In the land of the greater today.
And work while you wait,
For your ship might be late
Then you'd miss half of life, fear.

Dear Miss Doom

Dear MISS doom.
| am4a girl of 10 years old and
troubled with growth of hair on the
back of my neck. 1T appears as though
my neck was soiled from Assistance be-
cause my skin is dark, and also my
hair, Could you kindly inform me of
some remedy which would stop the
growth of hair, for which I would be
very thankful to you? Also what could
! do to prevent my eyes from being
bloated? Some days they are worse
than others. and my friends often pass
a remark about them. Please let me
know where / can hire a masquerade
costume? Thanking you in advance.
A CONSTANT READER.
There is nothing that will permanently
remove the growth Of hair on your
neck. You car use a d~epilatory stone,
which can be purchased at a drug store.
Rub your neck with a solution of
peroxide of hydrogen to whiten the
skin. II the skin is pulled under your
eyes it may be an indication that you
are not in perfect health. and it would
be well for you to consult a physician.
Business addresses cannot be given. in
this column in regard to where you can
hire a masquerade costume.

Gently when she gave a luncheon be-
cause her husband ate peas with a
spoon when she had particularly re-
quested him Il use his fork for that
urpose. When the guests departed
she spoke to her husband about 1t. A
relative who was present thus men,
tally summed up the matter. During
the luncheon the wife had treated her
guests to several bitter and unkind
criticisms of mutual acquaintance
and several really mean little innuen-
does had passed her lips. Now which
was worse, to eat peas with a spoon
instead Of a fork and put the slice OF
bread on the tabiecloth instead Of on
the plate furnished for the purpose or
to SANDER ones acquaintances? The
husband, should in Difference to his
wife's wishes as well as out of respect
to himself, have observed the niceties
of the occasion, and there is and
should be no excuse made for bad
table but, after all, is 1t not
a queer code OF ethics which allows us
the privilege to SANDER u friends and
yet takes umbrage at the wrong use OF
a spoon?

These candles are to be had in varl-
