Telephone Service for
the Farmer!

A telephone may be only convenience
to city man, it is necessity to the
Farmer. Think what ii means to sit at
home and be in instant communication
with your neighbors, the stores in town,
your doctor, in fact, the whole world.
Self preservation is the first law OF nature.
II is almost criminal for a farmer TO be
without phone.

to pay for all the comfort and profit OF a
telephone on the farm

THE MAGIC WEAVER

lures that the other wonder creatures
and the happy little nymphs forgot that
there was really a contest going on. IL
Arachne had been wise shs would have
time for her to stop her work. Instead
she became quite impertinent She even
wove a picture which made fun OF the
wonder creature. Do Won think Minerva
would stand this? Arachne had said that
IL her weaving were not better than
Mjnervas. she would never again take
her place at her loom. She saw now
that she was beaten and that she had
offended the great creature OF the air.
cried because her pride had caused such
disaster. What could she do. for never
again could she work at her beautiful
picture weaving?
Minerva could hardly forgive such a
bold act as Arachne's had been, but she
felt sorry for the, maiden.
IT will help YOU she said: hereafter
you may spin all your life
In q second Arachne was changed into
day weaving its beautiful web 10 the
garden. Even now Arachne's children
weave the lscfest fabrics In the world.
for, l suppose. they learned the secret
from other spiders that learned 70 from
other spiders that were taught by the
magic weaver herself.
IL you try. to take a lesson In weaving
from the spiders they VIII move 90
quickly that they seem really. to know
magic. since Arachne's could be nothing
but a spinning inject, the little creatures
today seem determined that nothing but
spinning insect shall be a wonderful
weaver.

All these added to the splendor OF her
marvellous work.
Up to this time there had been but
one wonder creature In the world who
could do such weaving. 50 every one said,
Surely. Minerva has taught the maiden

whispered to each other. And then had
taken flight according to his bidding.

"Climb into my topmost branches,"
said the tree. and UP went Richard with
the agility OF Q squirrel, for somehow
all weariness had fallen from him. Then
he saw the lake SUDDENLY rise and over
flow the entire valley. covering completely
the castle and castle outbuiidings. And
then Richard felt drowsy and fell asleep.
When he awoke the lake had resumed
Its former proportions and depth. and
the valley lay al before. sweet and peace

down and ran TO the castle. Outside the
gate lay the drowned bodies of his uncle,
aunt and cousin. and all wore wicked ex-

the waters and everything az usual. The
servants came back and the slaves re-
turned to see what was to be done. And
the good farmers also came to the val
