Wants The Girls as Of YOre.

Backward, turn backward, O,
Time, IN your flight and give us a
maiden dressed proper and right.
We are so weary of switches and
rats, Billie Burke clusters and
peach basket hats. Wads of jute
hair in horrible pile, stacked on
their heads to the height of a
mule. Something is wrong with
the maldens, we fear. Give US
the glrhes we once knew of yore,
whose curls didn't come from a
halrdressing store, Maidens
who dressed with a sensible view,
and lust as Dame Nature IN
tended them to, Give us girl
with figure her own and fash.
Toned divlnely by Nature alone.
Feminine styles getting fercer
each year-oh give us the girls
as they used to appear.-Ex.

II Is Very Important.

Before placing your advertise
ment IN a newspaper, always per
sonally demand an inspection of
the list, in order that you may
know just how many families you
are reaching and where they are
located. This is a very import
ant point IN advertising, and you
have a right to the information.
The NEWS list is open for the in
spectlon of all advertisers. We
do not mean to say that newspa-
per men wllfully stretch the
truth, but a few of them have
very large lmaglnations, and the
tongue slips without much effort,
and sometimes prompts them to
make their circulation double
what 1t really is.

Johnston j. Conrad, formerly
OF this county, has recently
bought a fine farm IN MIddlesex
township, Cumberland county
from }, Linn Mccullough, a pro
mlnent real estate owner of that
county. Mr.. Conrad purchased
and lived on a farm near Carlisle,
a few years and sold 1t to his ad-

now bought another Is an eveI.

Occasionally you hear a man
oewaillng his fate because he
must work for a living. Human
ity is given to mistakes, but it
makes few that are greater or
more bllndly made than this.
Look about you at those who do
not work, either for living, or
the joy of work. There comes
within your vision most of the un
happiness of life. The pampered
boy who Is trained to idleness and
luxury, dies young, or grows old
before his time. 1t is one of
hfe's paradoxes that the surest
way to fail to find pleasure is to

Clay Beattie, neither of whom
had to do 1t.

Care of Pet Animals.

Cats and dogs should be washed at least once a week. Do not keep the cats in draft while the fur is drying. Any cat, even the alley breed, is liable to suffer from earache. Use warm water with a good amount of borax. Never rub soap on the fur or hair; have it dissolved ready for use. Keep the little poodle dogs on a blanket to dry. Cut the hair away from the eyes.
