Marked Changes Make Farm Life
More Desirable.

That Neat, Substantial Dwell

(by J. =. BRIDGEMANO
Marked changes have lately ap-
peared on the farm and the many mod.
ern improvements have made farm
life far more desirable than 1t was
some years ago.
The ruralist may now, at moderate
cost, enjoy the advantages of city life
without fits many disadvantages.
The up-to-date farmer no longer
frowns on modern methods that light
en- labor and bring better and quicker
results. He no longer believes that
hard. excessive labor Is necessary tc
good farming. he no longer tolerates
hastily constructed rail cribs and
sheds for his stock and grain. he
realizes that thoughtfully planned
handily arranged and well construct
cd buildings are Just as necessary ir
the country as In the city. and hs
builds to that end.
Farm buildings now keep pace with
other industries. or at least, soon will
which "a q thing they have not done
for some years.
Farmers now build comfortable, and
convenient, and modern homes II
which are to be found the moderI
bathroom, kitchen sinks. hot-air furn
aces, water-systems. etc.

lower floor has six rooms. the uppei
story has space for one large or tive
small bedrooms. closets. bathroom ant

The living room Is large. as all dv

homelike. Build the fireplace, by al
means. as 1t is useful In more way
than one. The bedrooms all opei

A SIMPLE WAY TO
REDUCE WRINKLES

Remember that wrinkles and
bagginess of cheek or chin are due
to the muscular tissue losing its
strength and shrinking. The skin
is then too large in area to fit such
tissue smoothly. 1t wrinkles or
says.
To remedy this condition,
there's nothing so effective, SO
quick-acting, as a simple wash To-
ton easily made at home. Get
an ounce of powdered saxolite at
your druggists, and a half pint
witch hazel, mix the two, and
battle your face in the liquid. This
at once tightens the skin and
Isolidifies the underlying tissue -
which, of course, smoothes out the
lines and draws in the saggine
skin. 1t also stimulates circula-

fore Judge Mayer, with William J

eral counsel Of the National Surety
company, on the stand.
The natioal surety company had a
bond of 100000 on the building, to
be erected by the Hub Building com.
pany, at Forty-second street and
Broadway. The bond was covered
by the stock of the Hub company
which according to the prosecution

est in it.
Griffin told of a visit paid him BY
Raymond and Moses Greenwood, Jr.

men had managed to get the two
checks, one for $4,000 and the otael
for over $4,000, certified by the Mt
Vernon bank after six o'clock in the
evening.
