secured the iron there is only a highly
polished table to iron on. So a small

A torn placket hole can be prevented
in this way: Sew a hook and eye at
the very bottom on the wrong side,
then hook it together and pinch the
hook down tight. This keeps the

almost impossible to tear.

come from your eyes, then a good ocu-

tongue, loss of appetite, nausea, and
constipation, it is usually the result

c. T. Moses of Corinna followed with
some good advice to farmers and In
the discussion that followed Brothers
Gould, Tarbell and others of our lead
ing farmers took part. After the
speaking a short program was pre-
scented by the Worthy Lecturer. A
roll call of current events was re-
sponded to by Sisters Tarbell, Kim
ball and Harrington. The first ques-
ton was: Should the farmer read
more books and periodicals on farm
ing? 1t seemed to be the minds of
most of the brothers that the aver
age newspaper gave in it's farm col
umns together with its market reports
and agricultural bulletins about all a
common farmer needed in that line.
What are your fayorite flowers for

ters Cora Mosher, Emma Kimball and
