LOST HER PUPS; ADOPTS PIGS

So far as known the following au-

holds the belt. 1t is vouched for by the
entire staff of the Big Otto Wild Ami
NAL farm, on the Farmdale road.

given), lost her litter of four puppies

eyes, were nothing but NUTS In those

were not. So they were put away.
Bingo mourned sincerely for six
days. On the seventh, still grieving,
she made an excursion to the farm Of
a neighbor. There, in pig sly, she
came across a litter Of IL baby pork
ers, pink and succuient and week old
each. They were smuggling and nuz-

ached for her lost babies.

THE COMPANY YOU X EEP,

a person is known by the company
he keeps, and frequently-as the hui
morist puts it-by the company he
keeps out of.
BE careful IN choosing your associ-
ates. Never make friends acquaint.
ances would perhaps be the better
word-with those whose language, hab-
its or general conduct you would be as
named to see and hear in your own
home. II you do you are sure TO be
the sufferer. The person of low tastes
and conduct is much less likely to be
benefited by your superior ways than
you are to be degraded to his level.
Such, unfortunately, is the law of ma
ture. Let drop of milk fall into a
pail of water. 1t is lost in moment.
But let fall drop of black ink into the
same water, and its presence will soon
be noticeable. A rotton apple will fin
ally faint whole barrelful of sound
FRI it, but who would think of putting
a good apple into barrel Of decayed
fruit for the purpose of making them
sound again? This does not mean that
virtue has no leavenlng influence, bu
simply that il is easier to go down hill
than up.
So do not keep questionable company.
II you cannot find the right kind OF as
sociates, the kind who will make you
better and nobler, be sufficient to your
self, Live with your books and the
| WORTHLESS of all time, who are so willing
to give you through their pages a
friendship greater and benigner than
! that of kings.

DON'rS For WIVES

Don't expect .mpossibilities from
your husband.
Don't snub him in the presence OF
strangers.
Don't henpeck him just because you
know he is quiet and will stand it.
Don't treat him as if you had come
down of apedestal to marry him.
Don't worry him TO death because
you can't have your dearest wish grant
ed.
Don't run to your mother with all
his faults; rather keep his good quail
tiles to the light and hide his failures.
Don't think that, now you are mar
ried, he doesn't care whether you curl
your hair or not.
Don't have cold suppers. Remem,
Der, the nearest way to a mans heart
is through mis- stomach.
Don't siu up waiting for your hus-
band. Go to bed, get all the sleep you
can. In the morning when you are
looking and feeling the best, il you
have anything TO say, say it; nine
chances out Of ten you will win,
