Emotion Cuts Wrinkles,

Strong emotions, either Of Joy or
grief, leave their traces on the face.
Anger and tears soon trace deep fur
rows on the brows and leave the eyes
sunken and dull. Try to look on the
bright side and hope for better things.
Massage will improve your looks, pro-
vided you do not undo all the good
work with daily tears. Work and out
door exercise will be of the greatest
benefit Try them.

WHAT ONE GRANGE DID.
County Fair Transformed Into Strict
" Grange Agricultural Exhibition.

County Fair Transformed Into Strict
ly Grange Agricultural Exhibition.
Union grange fair ut Plymouth, y.
H.. was a unique event. Several years
ago Grafton County Agricultural soci-
ETY., with the aid OF the railroad, which
had headquarters at Plymouth at that
time established an agricultural fair.
This flourished for time, but gradual
ly dwindled in interest and finally was
abandoned. Now, It so happens that
Plymouth is the center of a large agri-
cultural and grange interest Sixteen
oranges i'm the vicinity of Plymouth
voted money from the treasury and
sent their members to get the grounds
In shape for an agricultural exhibition.
Not only in exhibits but in attendance,
the fair was a success. After paying
all premiums and other expenses and
for all the repairs about 5000 was left
But no dividends were declared. That
was not the purpose Of the fair.
Last year the grangers organized a
stock corporation, every share being
subscribed by the oranges as such.
They elected prominent grange men as
officers and started out Systematically
to build up the big fair. Again the re-
Spouse Of exhibitors and Patrons was
beyond expectations. After an outlay in
repairs and preparations OF as much
as the first fair cost, doubling the pre-
mlums and purses, the fair broke even
financially.
The fair is differed by prominent
Patrons The general deputy of the
state grange is president Of the fair
The master Of the state grange is sec
rotary. Four Of its eight officers are
or have been state deputies. all but one
of them past masters of subordinate
grangers, and that one has been an OIL
Ger Of his grange for years. Under the
management of progressive farmers
who believe In their business and its
greater possibilities, this fair IS bound
to succeed It's advertising catch
phrase is, please tell your neighbors.
They are being told and are telling
others. and the grange is making
friends by doing something for the in
dustry and the people 1t represents.

A Story That Points the Moral if II
Does Not Adorn the Tale-This Man
Wants Parcels Post, and He Is Not
the Only One Whose Profits Are

If there is one thing more than an
other which the grange has set its
hand TO obtain it is a parcels post sys-
TEN whereby packages OF limited
weight may be transferred through the
mails. That such a system is bound to
be inaugurated in the near future is
Just as certain as that the grange will
never give up until it is. 1t recognizes
the fact that the express companies
are chicfest opponents and that these
companies have able helpers in con
gress But parcels post is demanded
by the farmers everywhere, and par
GELS post they will some day have
Here is a single instance quoted
from Golfers of Oct. %. showing why
the farmer needs something besides
the express companies to convey his
produce not that he will ship peaches
by the basket through the mails SO
much as that If he cared to ship them
by express he wouldn't in the face OF
the parcels post competition have to
pay the express companies all his
