A Thing TO Be Forgotten

A y even more grueling experience which |, in
common with a lot of other boys, had,
owing to our chOiCynesS-due to too much eX-
perience-in the matter Of Jobs is the cause of
50 much poignant misery in recalling 1t even
to the present day that | hate to set 1t down
This didn't happen through a Boy Wanted
placard. 1t a Boy Wanted advertise
ment IN a newspaper. The advertisement was
for a neat, tidy healthy, good looking boy OF
cheerful disposition and good manners OF
course all of US who saw that advertisement
felt that we responded perfectly to everything
the advertisement called for.
Judge, then, of our disgust when, starting
for the address given in the advertisement we
found that 1t was huge bone fertilizer factory
far on the outskirts Of the town. | never got
nearer than half a mile from that bone fertilizer
factory. Even at that distance the air was per
meated with an ettuvium that caused me to turn
up my nose and flee back to the region Of more
familiar aromas | remember vet the sense Of
outrage felt that the proprietor of such scan
dalous smelling plant as a bone fertilizer fac
tory should advertise for neat. tidy, healthy
good looking boy of cheerful disposition and
good manners" Most Of the other BOYS whose
eyes caught the advertisement, whose inVcSti-
cations took them only within half a mile of the
bone fertilizer factory, felt the same way as |
did about it.
All except one. This boys olfactory nerves
must have been blunted or something. ANY
how, he went all the way to the bone fertilizer
factory and applied for the job.
Really hate to write about this. Well, any
how this IS the kind Of job it was: The pro-
pretor OF the bone fertilizer factory, a million
ARE, living in the finest suburban house in our
county was a wdower with ten-year-old boy.
He wanted boy to act as playmate and COM
panion to this little son. And 50 it WASH a
bone fertilizer factory job at all The boy who
didn permit his nose 10 stand in the way Of his
success in life nailed the Job. He went TO live
after awhile at the magnificent home of the
b9nt. fertilizer man Eventually the bone fer
tilizer millionaire adopted him as his foster son
and the voungstcr came in for a big wad of the
bone fertilizer fortune when the old man died,
and he fell easily into the habit of spending his
winters in the South Of France and his sum
mcrs cruising around the North Cape with his
foster brother, and

non these useful garments. There is
every season some device for the dec
Grafton Of each separate garment for
women. This year coronation braid is
applied upon a strip Of cluny lace
forming the front OF a finely tucked
linen blouse. Begin with two lengths
Of braid. sew them fast at the center
Of the lace strip under the collar band,
crisscross them down the front In a
diamond pattern and repeat the dec
grafton on the collar and cuffs OF lace.
Black. white and mulberry colored

and your making it will reduce the cost
Of the blouse to the value Of two yards
