NUMBER of years ago the pic
\ lures of the Land That Never
Was were only Of women and
girls, showing plainly that no man or
boy ever ventured within its portals
The women in this Land That New
er Was were always tall and graceful,
and they walked in gardens that con-
tanned statuary and marble urns, and
we're accompanied either by a very
tall dog with corduroy sides, or by a
stately peacock.
They never looked like the women
anyone ever knew, but all the women
looked at the pictures admiringly,
and tried to make their dresses look
nike those that trailed so gracefully
along the walks Of the Land That
Never Was.
For the pictures of the Land That
Never Was appeared exclusively in
the fashion books, and every woman
subscribed, and looked, and read, and
copied, and sighed both for the tall
and slender shape and the garden
with its peacock and marble fauns.
Men did not appear in these pic
lures some years ago. They bought
clothes that wore, and some inherited
the clothes of their fathers, and no
one dreamed in those days that It
would ever be easier to sell a purple
sock to a man by picturing him
Standing with purple socks on his
feet feeding swans in a pond. with
pretty girl standing beside him.
Times have indeed improved for
the men," said Lysander John Apple
ton, taking the advent of men into
the pictures of the Land That Never
Was as a suggestion for his conduct
as we'll as for his dress. And he
laughed merrily, as married men
sometimes do when away from home.
The next day he bought a pair OF
Always Wear shoes, and that night,
to try their virtues, he took a girl for
a walk, lifting up each yellow shod
foot proudly and easily as he walked
just as in the pictures of yellow shoe
styles in the Land That Nsver Was.
A few days later he bought 4 new
overcoat, and that night took a pretty
girl to private dining room of a
See" he said, eff it fits we'll around
the neck" and she put her arms
around his neck. Just as in the pic
lures, and reported that 1t did.
He arrived home the next night
wearing new tie, and. though he
looked carefully through the style
hook he found no picture OF man
wearing a new tie before the admir-
inc gaze of a very fat and wabbly
wife Something was wrong. and he
felt out Of fashion. But the feeling
was only momentary. for he heard the
voice Of pretty girl in the parlor.
Walking in, he boldly lifted her to
the top Of the center table. Putting
one arm around her. he drew her
close to him, and held out an end Of
his tie.
Il have never yet" he said, found
a more satisfactory tie than the Silk
All Through"
But she had not read the style book.
and didn't know that it was up to her
to grasp the tie, and look at the
wearer lovingly while she replied, 81
do not see how they make them for
the money"
Instead, she gave a scream of anger
and fright, so loud that Mrs. Apple
ton came running.
And this forever ended Lysander
Johns excursions into the Land That
Never Was.

Willing to Wait.

A Highlander was one day brought
before his chief, being accused of
sheep stealing. The crime being fully
proved, Donald was sentenced to be
hanged. In those days a criminal
was allowed to choose the tree on
which he was to be hanged Donald
was therefore asked to name the tree
of his choice.
"Olch, oich!" he said, "she would
like to be hung on a grossart goose
berry, bush"
But a grossart bush is not half
large enough for that" was the reply
"OiCh, oich," answered Donald, but

EXPERIENCE OF
MOTHERHOOD
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience of Motherhood is a
trying one to most women and marks
distinctly an epoch in their lives. Not
one woman in a hundred is prepared
or understands how to properly care
for herself. OF course nearly every
woman nowadays has medical treat
ment at such times, but many APP
proach the experience with an organ
ism untitled for the trial of strength,
ard when 1t is over her system has
received a shock from which 1t is
hard to recover. Following right
upon this comes the nervous strain of
caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming
than a happy and healthy mother OF
children. and indeed child birth un-
der the right conditions need be no
hazard to health or beauty. The in
explainable thing is that, with all the
evidence of shattered nerves and
broken health resulting from an I'M
prepared condition and with ample
time in which to prepare, women will
persist in going blindly to the trial
Every woman at this time should
rely upon Lydia z. Pinkham's Vege-
liable Compound, a most valuable ton
Ic and invigorator of the female or
5anism.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Last night I went out with q
girl friend and we met some boys
whom we knew. While going
along the street talking, two 9TH
er boys came along. Because we
had not had an introduction to
them we did not talk to them.
One asked me if / had lost my
tongue. Now where l came from
that is considered an awful in
suit. | slapped him unintention-
ally and we walked away. Should
/ apologize? WORRIED.
You were right in not speaking to
them without an introduction, but
did wrong in resenting a silly boys
sillier remark in such a way.
You did wrong, not to him, but to
yourself. You owe him no apology
but you owe to yourself a resolution
to be more dignifed. You should
have paid no attention to him.
