Use Magazine Stories.

An invalid or aged person who en-
joys magazine articles sometimes finds
the magazines, with their bulk OF adj
vertising, hard to handle. If the mag
azines are taken apart by removing
the little wire clips that bind the sec
tons together, the stories or articles
can be easily handled separately. And
any article specially likely to be en-
joyed by friend at distance can
be sent by mail when separated in this

be planted during the coming week
