DON'T CALL AGAIN.

DeaE MISS EalELa4-
am 19 and very popular. Lately I
received word from a young man who
used TO call on me pretty steady that
he would like 10 have me call him on
the telephone. I was informed he was
not in, and as he is a travelling sales
man, I believed this, but called a few
days later only TO be told the same
story; this time leaving my name
saying he should call me up. Now as
the young man who received my mes
sage is also a good friend of mine,
and spoke quite cOnfidentially to me
on the phone. also telling me that
the other young man is just jOllying
me along, I am in doubt as to what
course to pursue. Babe.
You should not have called in the
first place, and your second effort
does not speak much for your dignity.
The young man, my dear, who is
worth having viii always take the
initiative. He viii always make every
effort TO communicate with the girl
he loves, and ask only that she be
pleased at his OTertUres-

III Will BE A GOOD Loss.

Dear Miss Fairfax
am deeply IN love with a young
man two years my senior, and we have
been keeping company for the past
nine months, but lately at a party to
which he took me he met girl and
took her home. I wrote him the next
day asking him if 1 had done anything
to offend him. I have not received
an answer Should I write to him
again, as 1 would not like to lose him?
c. V. N.
He treated you most rudely, and
you would show a finer spirit if you
resented il and refused to see him
again. Do not write, and make up
your mind to this; The best thing that
can happen a girl is TO lose" an es-
cOrt who is not a gentleman For
such one behaves much worse after
marriage

There is a humanity about a person with
wholesome tastes such as these, you come to
realize as you walk and talk with Mr.. DuBose
in his chicken yards. Raising chickens is not
the piffling occupation that the scoffers would
make it out 1t is, it seems, a very serious
occupation, because 1t fits a man for better
work and bigger things. At least, so Mr.. Du-
Bose will tell you.
And, as he will tell you also, the devotef
breeder of chickens acquires a philosophy, and
a consideration for all things, and develops his
observation and his power of analysis 1t re-
quired some thought for Mr. DuBose to work
out all his schemes. 1t was the result of study
that he discovered that chickens must have all
the fresh air possible, and be kept out of the
slightest drafts. He had to think of means
to protect his feathered friends from the natural
enemies of chickens, the big rats, the skunks.
the possum, the thieving negro, and all those,
things. Altogether. raising chickens is no
slight task but worthy 1t seems, of the brains

which can be grown by them. The farm
schools experiment along these lines and at
the harvest time we hold exhibitions and in
this way, as one might say, we popularze
these new foods II they are ever to come to
the front in commercial way, We must give
them more foodstu1s.
We have our students use many of the
farming implements that are now used in the
States, but there are others which are adapted
to the country or to the people. Our exhibits
also show them that these farming schools
pay in real money for our sales at the last
exhibition amounted to over $4,000.
To induce them to add corn to their diet
we offer prizes to the student or to the farmer
raising the best crop. Some of the Filipino
provinces have never raised corn. They con-
slider it low caste food, the food of the very
poor. But beginning with our students we
teach the value of it to their parents through
stration. We hold an athletic meet at the
same time so as to draw large crowd. The
yield is placed exhibition and the
girls from our domestic science classes cook
the corn in every known way Last year they

1t is becoming always more necessary for
the Filipino families to have more income
The high cost of living has affected the islands
of the sea as well as other communities. Per-
haps it would be more exact to say that as
the desires of the people for education have
spread, their wants have increased also
Therefore we are making a great feature OF
providing some home employment for the
women. In Manila we have established a
school Of household industry where courses
of six months duration are given in lace max
ing and embroidery. At present We take $50
women Of mature age from various parts OF
the islands and place tenn in this school for this
period They take to these industries natur
ally and become very proficient in their work
in the six months Then they return to their
provinces and instruct the young women Of
their villages in these arts. All expenses are
met by the Government AS time goes on this
experiment will undoubtedly make great and
lasting difference in the home life of people
Philippine products, whether from the home
or the workshop, find a ready sale In Manila
and IN this country. We also have what
call pensonado system. Two hundred and
thirty young men and women from the va
rious provinces are pensioned by the Govern
ment so that they able to attend the Nor
NAL School, the School of Arts and Trades, and
the College of Agriculture, which is at Los
Banos. Most of them remain only year, then
return to their provinces to teach their fell
lows in the industries and also in farming
This pensionado system is one of the most
valuable agents in bringing home to the Fill
Pine the value of education There are by the
way usually from fifty to one hundred OF these
pensionados at school college in this coun.
