The collection of domestic, foreign and
Oriental rugs and carpets is always one

The same may be said of the house
linen and drapery departments. of the
wall paper and interior decorations, OF
the cut gias and silver plate. and of
the stocks of baby carriages, refrig-

Goods are delivered in Washington

Farm Life Commission, was deeply I'M
pressed with the cooperative banking
of the German farmers. "In Germany
the borrower, particularly the farmer
receives far more consideration than at
home" he said. "Industry, character
and reputation are the chief securities
for loans, and yet losses are compara'
lively rare As a result of our tour,
am convinced that the terms OF our
farm mortgages must be longer. We
could well adopt the German plan OF
gradually paying off mortgages For
instance, here a farmer will pay 8 per
cent on his loan. Four of that is in
terest and the other l per cent applies
on the principle. "
Clarence NJ. Smith, banker of San
Francisco, believes the German small
farm plan ought to be tried in Cali
fornia. "I believe" he said, that If
some of the ten and twenty-acre farms
were laid out in such a way that the
houses were at some central point, each
farmer living upon en- acre of grourl,
thus forming a villa colony or village,
it would go far toward solving the
problem of social life on the farm. "

A Sustaining Diet

These are the ,ating days, when,
as somebody has said, men drop by the
sunstroke as II the Day Of Fire had
dawned. They are fraught with dan.
ger to people whose systems are poorly

the interest Of the lcss robust Of our
readers, that the full effect of Hood :
sarsparilla is such as to suggest the
propriety of calling this medicine some
thing besides blood purifier and ton.

spend as much as that, nor nearly
as much, for we must provide for
the inevitable "rainy day." If
very family would set its fac
like flint on this point, many a
disaster would be avoided. After
our estimates are made, we add up
our figures. Alasl we find that we
have planned to spend over a hun
dred dollars more than our income,
counting the little margin allowed
for the savings bank. What shall
we dOq Cut down on the savings
accountI No, never, but we set
about to cut off little here and
and there until the total comes
within our income. Do we live up
to our estimate in all cases3 No,
but as we see that we exceed our
allowance in one department we
cut down in another and always
come through the 10 months with
a little to spare over our total esti
mate. This plan requires surpris-
ingly little time and there is the
satisfaction of knowing that you
are to have something to show for
it all in the future.
1t is a wise rule to set aside certai
per cent Of your income regularly, cor
sidering that this per cent is insuranc

debt which must be paid. As your il
