Judd Farmer. This is the great com.
mercial grape. The sturdiness and
hardness of its vines. which resist
both drought and freezing. and its an.
failing production. make II OF great
value. The fact that It's picking sea.
son extends over three weeks ia also
an important item.
The grapes In our country are very
free from disease and insect pests.
Leaf hopper is q pest only where lack
Of cultivation allows the weeds to
grow under and about the vines.
Borers can be kept out by careful
pruning and cutting away all canes
where they appear and burning them.
BLACK rot appears only where rows
are too close together or on level
ground and in wet season. These
are the only diseases or pests which
amount to anything with us. We do
not spray. In some places. however
the requirements might be different.

Chocolate Soldjera.

The soldiers weakness for sweet.
meats. to which Mr. Bernard Shaw
called attention when he wrote "The
Chocolate Soldier" has been abund.
antly confirmed during the present
war. The quantity of sweets con-
sumed by our army in France has
been prodigious, while from Cairo
comes the news that the Australians
have absolutely eaten the place out
OF chocolate. On the troopships
which brought them. too. 1t was the
same. Thus Capt. Bean. the official
correspondent with the force. writes:

mand for sweets and soft drinks that
was expected and one-fifth the demand

It Is true that nature and woman's
work mas produced the grandest remedy
for woman's Ills that the world has
ever known. From the roots and
herbs Of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave TO womankind
. remedy for their peculiar His which
has proved more efficacious than any
other coordination Of drugs ever COM

Vegetable Compound Is recognized
from coast to coast % the standard
remedy for woman's ills.

Mass, are files containing hundreds Of
thousands Of letters from women seek

ALL SEEK FOR HAPPINESS
The One Thing for Which Mankind
May Be Said to Have a Univer.
sal Desire.

We cannot pick and choose the
happenings OF life any more than we
can select the circumstances of our
birth and death; we are but creatures
of wonderful destiny directed by
the Almighty. II Is said that many
tragedies Of life might be averted II
we took our medicine like men" and
did not put our personal happiness
above everything else. II Is as nat.
ural and to be expected to long for
happiness and cling to It as for the
flowers to turn to the sun. Happiness
is the great lamp OF life which lights
our way through all sorts of shad.
ows-shadows that blur the vision
and make long nights Of our days.
shadows that terrify by their gro
tesque shapes and threatening as
poets. and shadows that bury In their
depths much that we hold most dear
We are jealous Of our happiness and
guard II as the most precious thing
In life and when we watch 1t go d Sn
the long aisles Of memory further
and further away from our yearning
eyes we begin to plead for 1t, and
strive for 1t. and fight for It. We
batter the walks of the past In our
vain efforts to call 1t back before II
is too late. and spend long days and
waste precious strength In the futile
endeavor to clutch 1t back to our
hearts. And all the while, perhaps
right at our hands within easy reach.
happiness in a new guise stands ready.

We and the British Have Sweet Tooth.

Britons have the sweetest tooth, and
Americans come next. II the statis.
tics for consumption OF sugar mean

MASON AND Dlx0N'S LINE
Popular MIsapprehenslon as to Mean
Ing Of Term and Just What the
Phrase Implied.

Very incorrect Is the general belief
that Mason and Dixon's line, as orig.
inally laid OF. divided the slave-hold.
ing states from the free states. On
the contrary. 1t ran for one-third OF
its whole length between Maryland
and Delaware, both Of which were
slave-holding states at the time. The
line was run purely to settle bound.
ary dispute between Pennsylvania.
Maryland and Delaware.
All the same. the actual Mason and
Oxon's line was as much synonym
for trouble and dissension In its day
a. was the figure Of speech TO which
In after years It gave rise. And the
phrase will hold bitter meaning to
some until lin that looked<or day OF
charity to all mem shall be fulfilled

that When the people Of the South
and the North get together they will
forget there was ever a Mason and
Dixon's line."--Southern Woman's
