The monster raft of piling which is
shown being towed through the Guile

is being shipped from the Pacific coast
for use on the Atlantic side of the
canal, where it will be built into a

than if sent across the isthmus by rail.

FARMERS WIVES PLAN
MODEL HOME

One of the most helpful projects ever
undertaken by women In this country
has been launched by the international
Congress of Farm Women. Of which Mrs.
Belle Van Dorm Harbert, Of Manzanola,
Colo, is president The plan is to con-
struct a model farm house at the Pan
ama-Pacifc Exposition in San Fran
cisco from dimes contributed by farm
women in all parts of the country. Prom
inent women in this country and Canada
have been enrolled as vice presidents.
has been broken.
1t is proposed to make this building
stand for everything that is up-to-date in
farm home equipment, especially with re-
gard to labor-saving devices that will
tighten the toll of the farm wife. Prizes
are to be offered for the best suggestions.
The model farm home will be along the
lines of the plan worked out by the In
ternational Congress of Farm Women
at their last meeting in Client, Belgium,
when an entire village was erected
The model farm will be a practical
working out of various theories upon
which the government has embarked in
the effort to tighten the burden Of toll
carried by the American farm woman.
Recent investigations by Department of
Agriculture experts have disclosed a
great need for better management in the
farm kitchen as well as outdoors Hither-
to all of Uncle Sans attention has been
devoted to the farmers sDetterment, but
it has suddenly been realized that, while
the condition of the man on the farm has
been advancing. little or nothing has
been done to help the chief of the kit
chen solve her problems. NJ
Mrs. Harbert herself is the inventor
of many appliances for tightening the
burden Of women on the farm.

| two out of his deeply lined face as he
looked about for familiar figure OF
which he saw a number, but no one who
seemed to recognize him, so he took his
mean little suit case, and sought hos
telry noted for its cheapness.
The Man had not prospered in his
larger field. He had been over-confi-
dent, and something of a plunger, and
lost all that he had had in the prosper
Gus days in The Little City of Homes.
But it would be all right now. He
could depend on .'the boys" He would
soon get back his old footing in the
town, soon be as popular as before.
Midnight found him sitting alone on
the broad veranda of the club at which
he had given his farewell banquet Many
of the men of other days were no
longer there Those who had once pro-
iessed undying friendship fer The Man
scarcely knew him now, so changed was
he. They looked at his shabby clothes,
his stopped shoulders, took in his whole
aspect of defeat, tried to receive him
with cordially, and failed.
So The Man was alone with his MEM
cries, and thoughts that were the most
bitter his life had ever known. He had
withdrawn to a cool recess of the big
club porch where he had spent so many
happy summer evenings, when an Ac-
quaintance of other days, whom he had
never numbered among his friends, be-
cause he had never seemed to just be-
long to his set, came out of the long
French window and spoke to The Man.
The Acquaintance had noted the re-
ception which his one-time friends had
accorded The Man, and when he spoke
the sort of sympathy that can be born
only in the heart of one who has like
wise suffered vibrated in his voice.
He said he had never been more than
an Acquaintance, that he had not been
a member of The Mans Club or of his |
circle of intimates when the latter went |
away, but that he had always liked The !
Man sincerely, and that he had been
thinking all evening of splendid plan /
The Man could regain his old
footing in The: Little City of Homes,
taking care to keep his own generous
share in the scheme as much in the back
ground as possible.
And when that night The Man lay
once more on bed by an open window,
and his vision Travelled over the wonder
full heavens, an impulse of prayer stirred
MS being.
He got out of bed, and, there in the |,
stuffy little room of the cheapest hotel
IN The Little City of Homes he offered
God his thanks for the rare, rare gift of
single friend.

On Bringing Up Children

You didn't know Shaw knew anything
about children? Judge for yourself. Here
is the evidence. some Of the epigrams
from his newest essay. Parents and
Children" from the latest volume Of
plays published last week.

who try to correct their own faults in
their offspring.
The parent who says to his child. i
am one Of the successes of the Almighty
therefore initiate me in every particular

absurd figure than the man who, with
