THIS MAN DIyERSIFIEs.

When you see a farmer come to
town with load of hogs, big tub OF
butter. two or three cans of cream per
week, some grain or hay for sale, or
calf, colt, COW or mule, you may be
sure he is not hanging his hopes on the
uncertainty of the cotton market this
fall. He is diversifying and living at
home. Morgan (Texas) Messenger.
Neither is he depending upon some
new scheme of legislation to make him
prosperous while he rests in the shade
and abuses the government. The man
who works intelligently is rarely a
noisy person. He is not a growler
who spends his life clamoring for
something for nothing and suspecting
a1G abusing everybody who is prosper
cus.-Galveston News.
The man who diversifies his crops is
the man who is going to be travelling
the road to independence, If not to
fortune. He who places his hopes up
en- one crop, no matter what that crop
may be, is travelling the wrong road,
the road that will eventually lead to
his financial downfall
And the Galveston News well says
that "the man who works iutelligently
is rarely noisy person" He has no
time to be noisy, except such noise
as he makes while at work, and it is
by no means a discordant sound, but
is sweet music to the ear.
The government is not going to leg
islate money into any mans pocket. ALI
that fellow gets must work for,
unless he comes by it through gift or
dishonest methods. The fellow who is
not undertaking to do anything to bet
ter his condition is not much of a man,
He may wear good clothes and all that
sort of thing, but he is of no real bene-
fit to himself or to anyone else.
Crop diversifcation is coming to be
recognized by large numbers of farm
ers as the best and surest method of
succeeding ON the farm, and they are
adopting it. Their experience has
taught them beyond question that the
oDe-crop idea is not safe one to fol-
low.-Columbus Enquirer-Sun.
And the Enquirer-Sun speaks para
Bile when it says the government is not
going to legislate money into a mans
pocket, and the sooner the calamity
howlers get away from such forlorn
hopes, the better for the country. OF
legislation we have a plenty, what the
farmer needs today is to get away from
the all-cotton crop idea and diversity.
Raise little cotton and a little of
other crops. Farm in such a way as
that whenever he goes to town he will
have something to sell in exchange for
that which he buys. This way and
only In this way, can the farmer reach
permanent and enduring success.

TONE UP YOUR STOMACH

There is no tonic for the stomach that
is not tonic for every other part of
the body. But the stomach depends,
as does every other organ, on the blood
for its energy.
There ecan be,no perfect digestion with.
out rich, red blood. This is scientif-
ically true. The way then to tone up
the stomach is TO enrich the blood.
II your digestion is off and your blood
is thin there can be no question about
it. You need DR.. Williams Pink Pills
to restore the condition of your blood,
use care in the selection OF your diet
and the stomach trouble will take care
ofitself.
Stomach trouble is debilitating. DR..
Williams Pink Pills are a tonic and
build up the weakened system generally.
Most stomach remedies try to digest
your food for you. How much better
it is to tone up the stomach so that it
will do its own work as nature intend-
ed. There is no pleasure in eating pre-
digested food. Tone up your stomach
and your appetite and digestion will
soon be normal.
A diet book will be sent free on re.
quest by the DR.. Williams Medicine
Co., Schenectady, N. Y. Your own
druggist sells DR.. Williams Pink Pills
or box will be sent by mail, postpaid,
on receipt Of fifty cents.

Tomorrow a very interesting treat
Is in store for Harrisburg shoppers for
the ii. G. Claster Jewelry Shop, 3O2
Market street, in connection with their
very complete showing of Community
Silver, has arranged to have spe-
cial representative from the factory at
their store to offer any kind of serV-
ice to customers, either in helping to
select new silver or to give sugges-
tions and advice as to the care of
silver formerly purchased. He will
also explain the process of manufac-
ture, and give many interesting facts
in connection with it, and incidentally
this day of open house" at Casters
will give everyone an opportunity to
stop and see their interesting gift dis
plays without feeling any obligation to
buy.
Just A Little More Than A Gard
Charming little books which serve
as just little more than q card and
less than a gift are shown at Cottereis
North Market Square for just 25c
and soc. There is a clever Christmas
story by C. n. and A. NJ. Williamson,
a new book by Francis Hodgsom Bur-
nett and Woodrow Wilson's interest

Then there are Christmas stories and
Sunshine verses, charming books of
gardens, flowers and birds, and all the

Garden of Allah
The Garden of Allah is a most ap-
propriate name for the fragrance that
is offered at the Golden Seal Drug
Store, II South Market Square, in ex-
tract, toilet water, Sachet, face ana
taicum powder, and the suggestion of
splendor embodied in the name is
beautifully fulfilled in the gift-like
boxes, lined in gold-colored satin, in
which artistic bottles filled with the
green gold liquid are charmingly ar
ranged. Some of the better boxes
contain powders. perfumes and sachet
while others, equally lovely, but less
expensive hold q single bottle of toilet
water or a vial of delicate perfume,
and prices are most moderate at this
shop.
Thousands of Neclltics
I have been wondering how many
neckties are given for Christmas gifts
in Harrisburg for l just learned that
one store alone sells a quantity which
runs into the thousands of dozens! l
thought at first that this was impos-
sible, but when / heard that the store
was Doutrichs. 3O4 Market street, and
that they have now in stock 1900
dozens, and when l realized how
popular this store is for necSwear,
could easily understand it. This
tremendous assortment makes it easy
to select ties for Christmas giving, and
I was delighted with the splendid as
sortment shown for just soc, which is
fully up to the standard of former
years before war prices began, while
the designs are prettier than ever.
Children's Furs
l think children look just like little
snowbirds when they put on the cum
ming little white fur sets which l saw
at Astrich's, Fourth and Market
streets. This store is Offering so many

An enthusiastic audience, generous
in its applause, greeted the "Tableaux
WANTS staged last evening in the
Technical high school auditorium by
the Misses Fisher, of Saltwater, N. J.
The pictures from Shakespeare and
some of the old masters were posed by
debutantes and others. under the di-
rection of the capable ladies. who pro-
vided the costumes and supervised the
stage arrangements.
The lighting effects were excellent
and the musical accompaniments by
Alfred c. Kuschwa very much in har-
mony with the settings. All the pos
lures were received with two and
sometimes three cncores. Mrs. Thomas
Baldwin, in a portrait after Romney,
Miss Constance Ferriday as Ophelia,
Miss Susanna Fleming as Portia and
Miss Janet Sawyer after Titan were
all given hearty receptions, and John
Comstock as Prince Hal fulfilled the
requirements of the dashing courtier
very acceptably. AS matter of fact,
each tableau held the audience with
equal interest and all were staged with
the care and effectiveness of expert
ence.
The Aid Society of the Visiting Nurse
Association has enriched it's treasury
considerably as a result of the tableaux.

pretty sets of children's furs especially
for Christmas giving and priced from
$1.9S to $40. There are a great many
different styles for children of all
ages. and besides the white furs which
are always charming for the little tots
pretty combinations of two or more
furs of contrasting colors are especial

Artists of the Pianoforte
I must confess that had a natural
prejudice against player pianos, but
when l heard a Chickering at the j.
Fl. Troup Music House, Is S. Market
Square, eXquisitely played with the
soft pathos, the lightness of touch and
the delightful phrasing of a perfect
artist, l could hardly believe my own
eyes when l saw that the piano was
played without any touch of human
hands. This wonderful instrument is
known as the Ampico Reproducing
Piano and the records are played first,
and then reproduced. by such artists
as Busoni, Godowsky, and others OF
like rank, so that the music is of un-
questionable merit.

are both comfortable and picturesque
and they are made in true Indian
fashion of unfinished deerskins. This
is but one of many attractive styles
offered at this shop in slippers for
both men and women, priced from
$1.75 up and any of these would
make most acceptable gifts. The
travelling slippers in soft brown leather
for service, or the dainty slippers in
pink or blue silk which slip into a
case to match, are very reasonably
priced and are pleasing novelties for
gifts.
Baskets of Goodies"
There are so any uses for Christmas
baskets that everyone needs many OF
them at Yuletide-some for holly and
Christmas greens, some to fill with
fruit and cookies for gifts, or to use
for donations of groceries, and the sale
of Japanese baskets at the Studebaker
Store (now owned by Mr.. George
Barnes), Second street at the crossing
of State, is most opportune. They are
closing out their stock of japanese
baskets at ridiculously low prices, and
a good idea is to leave orders at this
store-or by telephone-to have one
of these inexpensive baskets filled with
fruit, nuts, or groceries to be delivered
the day before Christmas.
Inexpensive Baskets
You will find Just the bag" for q
dozen different friends at the Wom-
ans Exchange, Third street at Herr
knitting bags, bags for crochet, street
bags, laundry bags, vanity bags
novelty bags-and each is so different
from the others you have seen that
they have an added charm of in
dividuality. There is large bags for
knitting, made of dainty pink and
white cretonnes, which sells for just
25c-a wonderful value! Another
pretty knitting bag in an odd design
of blue and buff cretonne is just soc
and these give just an idea of the
many inexpensive, but beautiful bags
that are offered for gifts at this shop
