Sheep Are Profitable.

Sheep require less attention than
any other farm animal They do not
have to be curried or brushed or
washed: neither do they have to be
tied with halters or confined with
stanchions. All they need is good
feed. clean water and absolutely dry
shelter, and for this care they will re.
turn a better profit considering the
investment than any other animal on
the farm.

same one-half inch holes are tored
through the boards for the moisture
to pass through. These holes should
not be bored in regular rows as the
wood is more apt to break out easier
If the grain is thus broken, but by
arranging so that no two holes are in
direct line along the horizontal
length of board the planking will last
far longer. The stall floor should have
slight slant to this point. and the
gutter must have slope enough to
drain all moisture outside TO the COM

in corner of the room stood two tall
cloisonne vases of almost inestimable

miniatures and rare worries. The
walls were covered with tapestries,
armor, and trophies of arms. More

Handle Ewes Carefully

Ewes that are heavy with lamb
should be handled very carefully and
all openings where they pass through
should be wide enough to prevent
crowding. Many dead lambs are born
when the ewes are compelled to pass
through small openings and kept in a
crowded place.

DR.. Moulden Treats Wife After
Auto Crash,

DR.. William r. Moulden. of Friendship

and his wife was cut by flying glass
when their automobile skidded at Twen-
ty-sixth and NJ streets last night and
crashed into a heavy coal wagon.
The couple were returning home about
$50 o'clock, and the streets were slippery
from the days rainfall. DR.. Moulden was
driving and his wife sat beside him as
they went west in NJ street. The wagon
crossed their path as they neared Twen-
ty-sixth street, and in attempting to
guide around the wagon DR.. Moulden lost
control of his machine. The auto yeered
suddenly to one side as the wheels skidded
over the slippery street.
In the crash, the glass on the front
of the automobile was shattered, and
Mrs. Moulden's face was cut by flying
particles. Her injuries were dressed by
her husband. The damage to the ma
chine was estimated at SIS.

To Shrink a Fleshy,
Flabby, Bloated Face
IFrum HappY Homes.N

The woman whose face has a bloated
appearance at times, particularly upon
arising, as well as she whose face is
permanently overfeshy or fiabby. should
use the saxolite solution. This is made
by dissolving OF. powdered saxolite In
II pint witch hazel, inexpensive ingre-
dents which any druggist can supply.
Use as a wash lotion. There is nothing
better to reduce the face to a normal
condition. The loose skin shrinks, baggi-
ness and wrinkles are ironed out. Not
only does the effect quickly show in
ones improved appearance, but there is
also a comfortable feeling of firmness
and smugness.
This treatment is far superior to
massage. The latter, as a matter of
fact, can afford but temporary relief,
and its continuance tends to break down
the muscular tissue and aggravate the
trouble.

years the Danenhowers pursued their
way, taking a quietly important part in
the affairs of the Capital, but mainly de-
voting themselves to the rearing and
care of an interesting brood of eleven.
Away back in 1890 Mr.. and Mrs. Danen-
hover decided on a novel observance of
their golden wedding anniversary.
"All by their lonesome" so to speak,
like a happy bridal pair of the early '40's,
they retraced their steps to the Quaker
City. There they visited the parsonage
where, fifty years previously. they had
taken the marital vows. Together they
spent hours in visits to the old homes
of their childhood days, and returned con-
tented and inspired to renew their vows
of constancy.
When their silver wedding anniversary
was observed, in October, 1866, Mr.. and
Mrs. Danenhower made their home at
Twelfth and G streets northwest. There
they welcomed the chosen friends who
had attended the wedding twenty-five
years previous. Engraved invitations
from a silver plate went to each one of
those bidden, and the resp onses were
hearty and unanimous. ...
At eighty-eight Mrs. Danenhower de-
lights in her favorfte pastime of back
CANNON, which she plays by the hour.
Real estate experts say she Is one OF the
shrewdest judges of realty values.
She has no new ideas to exploit as
to the mission OF woman; nor does she
appear, on the verge OF becoming a
happy nonagenarian, to be worried as to
food germs or other troubles. Her appe-
tite is Of the best.
To-day, surrounded by her family and
few chosen intinlates, this venerable
woman win receive felicitations and smile,
as is her daily won't, upon the world
outside, which, she says, Is q good one
In which TO live.
