The Telephone Girl.

The telephone girl sits still in her
chair and listens to voices every
where. Hears all the gossip, hears
all the news, she knows who IS hap
py and who has the blues; she knows
all our sorrows, she knows all our
joys, she knows every girl who is
chasing the boys; she knows all our
troubles, she knows of our strife,
she knows every man who is mean
to his wife; she knows every time
we are out with the boys; she hears
the excuses each employs; she knows
every woman who has dark past;
she knows every man who's inclined
to be FAST; in fact, there's Sc
cret meath each saucy curl of that
quiet, demure-looking telephone
girl. If the telephone girl would
tell all she knows, she would turn
half of our friends into bitter foes;
she would SOW a small wind that
would soon be a gale, engulf us in
trouble and land us in Jail; she would
let go a story, which gaining in force,
would cause half our wives to sue
for divorce, she would get all the
churches mixed up in a fight and
turn all our days into sorrowing
nights; in fact she could keep the
whole town in a stew if she'd tell q
tenth part of the things that she
knew. Now, doesn't it make your
head whirl when you think what
you owe the telephone girl?-Ex-

Death Of Little Margaret Bowers

Thursday, as the beautiful au-
tumn day began to wane, and the
golden grain was being reaped py
the harvesters, a little child's soul
was called home to the Reaper, not
of earth, but of heaven-where a
harvest of little children await the
dawning Of eternal day; in the low
ing care of one who blessed them,
saying, "Suffer little children to
come unto me, and forbid them not,
for of such is the kingdom of heav-
en-"
After a short illness, Margaret
Aston Bowers died at three o'clock
Thursday Nov. 18th, surrounded by
a loving family, with troubled hearts
and eager hands to relieve the baby
sufferer, but to no avail, for the
healer of all pain has gathered her to
his breast for we know
THE heart of children
Hold what worlds cannot,
And the God Of wonders
Loves the lowly spot"
Although little Margaret was only
two years and a half old, she had
many friends who loved her for he1
happy, gentle nature, and her warm
loving heart.
To the heart broken parents and
family, friends and little children
who loved her there is a consolation
in the comforting thought that she
has gone where There is home
for little children"
"And there thou'st sure to meet thu
good
Whom on earth thou lowest best,
Where the wicked cease from troub
ling,
And the Weary are at rest"

Farmers Take Initiative

The farmers of Ingham county,
Mich. are considering the question
of erecting a canning factory of
their own at Lansing. They have con-
vinced that such plant would take
care of market surplus and also
would make it possible to increase
the acreage in that section of sweet
corn, peas and beans and fruits of all
kinds. The men back of the project
have observed that wherever can
ming factories have been located
large home market has been de-
veloped and the necessity of shipping
avoided or greatly reduced. Such
factories have proven to be boons
to the rural communities where they
have been placed. With out except
ion they have given small farmers a
chance at intensified farming and
have afforded a market of what
the small growers had to sell.
There are about 20Ogrowers who sup
ply the Lansing market and they have
found out that gardening is good
business. Many of these want to
work on larger scale and for that
reason are in favor of a factory to
convert the surplus into marketable
product. The experiment will be
watched with interest, for the idea
is almost applicable to almost any
part of the country.

Railroads Offer Re|gIanS Farms

A gigantic plan fostered by every
railroad in the United States, to
provide farms for immigrants driv-

very desirable ia, ,mer-imigrants to
small farms by the tens of thousands
if necessary" says F. H. La Baume,
president.
1.-The minimum farms will be
from two to ten acres. The rail-
roads will sell the farms on credit
and advance enough money to in
stall farming equipments. We al
ready have a highly efficient bureau
on every big road for the education
of the farmer along scientific lines,
and double the number of present
stops and demonstrations would en-
tail little, if any, extra expen e.
The average European farmer
needs little education. He already
grows more on two acres than we
do on Sc.
