There are folks who will never

Where IS Honolulu!

A friend mas telling US the way he
gained information, when he had to,
and the reason why so many people
know so many things that are not so.
He thought he would visit the new
county court and see how the new
judges performed when hitched up,
but on stepping inside of the door his
ears were assailed with a terrific
racket, apparently from the 10 wer
regions. He had often heard the
statement, "Hell's broke loose" and
he thought he was in for it then and
there. He said Judge Farley was
gazing earnestly out OF the window,
as II that was the nearest way to es-
cape if the thing did blow up or sink,
and the new Judge for the western
district looked longingly toward the
door, and apparently ready to grab
his hat and go if the outlook 20,

judge, being an old timer, was trying
to transact business with hayseed,

A Square Deal And The Farm.
er'S Wife.

In recent article comparing the
cost OF living today with what it was
fifty or seventy-fvc years ago, much
was made OF the difference OF the
present equipment of the farmer.
and that of his father and grandfather.
The conclusion was reached that al
though it costs more to live today.
it is worth all it costs. But i'll the
enumeration of labor-saving farm
tools no mention is made of that
portion of farm work which falls upon
the farm woman. A wise silence
was maintained upon that point.
The fact is, farm labor for the
woman differs today chiefly in quail
ity. The quantity remains about the
same. Her grandmother spun, wove
and tailored for the entire family.
Her clothes were simple and easily
and quickly made. even by hand.
Her house was simply built. simply
furnished, and required less care to
"keep" than the house of today.
Nevertheless, she worked early and
late and often beyond her strength,
even in those days of pioneer hardi-
hood, using for her own generation the
health and strength that should have
been passed on to her children.
Our mothers had cookstoves, sew
ing machines and, later, washing
machines. Labor savers they! But
with their advent came an era of
fancy cookery, piles of cheap bric-a.
brac, and multitudinous ruffles. Hel
