Mother Love.

St. Louis Globe Democrat: The senti.
ment of the race clings to and twines
itself around mother Nobody has ever
thought of writing about mother such
a song as Everybody Works But
Father" The one thing in life so
sacred that nobody ever has or, ever
will laugh at it is mothers love for
her children. The world may laugh
at a woman's love for man, and it
has grown into an adage that such a
love is often unaccOuntable. by any
rule of reason. But that touch Of ma.
ture which makes us all kin has placed
mother love on pedestal and made
us all bow down before it. It is the
one thing consecrate. In times such
as these when mother hearts are be-
ing torn with grief at the loss OF sons

Keen Farm sprino Clean.

One OF the most common sources Of
contamination of springs in rural dis
tricts arises from the failure to fence
the springs at such distance as to pre-
vent the access OF stock, say the engi
neers at Iowa State college. There is
also the danger of inflows of surface
drainage.
Any spring subject to such inflow
should be carefully protected by i'm
pervious walls carried to such height
as will effectively exclude all surface
water.
Spring water should always be con
veyed by iron pipe. Lead, which is
more or less easily dissolved by soft
waters. may cause lead poisoning. II
lead pipes are used. enough water
should be drawn each time to entirely
remove the water which has stood III
the pipes for any length of time.

 Many economical and palatable soups may be put up in the summer and early fall, and in this way the odds and ends of vegetables and ce- reals may be utilized as we'll as meat scraps, bones and fragments that are often wasted.

For simple home treatment nothing is more effective than the use of cold salt water several times day, with a warm facial scrubbing at night and gentle massage with skin food.

 your face thoroughly? It is absolutely necessary that the grime and soil accumulated on the counte- nance during the day be removed. That is, if you are doing things to keep your complexion in good order. Of course, you take bath before re- tiring as a means of better rest and consequent good health. Certainly, along with the bath, you wash your face But perhaps you dash it with cold water, while telling yourself that "the cream will do the rest" This is a mistake. Wash the face, thorough ly and then apply the cream. Wipe off the first application of cream and you'll take off more grime with it. Then rub cream into the cuticle to nourish the flesh.

lUS0 OME girls have habit or DOT H rowing sums on all occasions, perhaps only a few cents at
 a time. but by the weeks end the amount is often big enough to take up quite a large part of the salary. That means that the borrowing must be repeated the week followin.. and so on, endlessly.
 What's more, borrowing a nickel here and quarter there, they often fail to repay. The sum is small, and those from whom they have borrowed do not feel like asking for it. But none the less they don't enjoy los- ing it.
 It is a bad, disintegrating habit. and if any of you are falling into it, my advice is to quit 1t at once, even if it means real hardship for awhile. Make up your mind that you won't borrow a single cent, no matter what you have to deny yourself. and stick to #.
 It needs a lot of determination to break a habit, and you will find 1t hard to keep from asking for a little loan to "tide me over till tomorrow" or to buy this or that notion that has struck your fancy, or to make your lunch a little more elaborate.
 There are times when it is neces- sary when 1t is wise, to borrow sum of money. It is the avoidable, petty, habit-forming borrowing that is fatal. and that grows to be vice.

h d KM for a small child you do not A pay so much attention to the
 form as you do to the morals and interest the story holds. Form is only considered as a means of mak- ing the book more readable. But, in short time the form becomes most important, takes every impression, whether good or bad, and if the book is ungrammatical. he grows like his faulty model. Moreover, his tastes become blunted, and he cannot appre- ciate well-written book.
 On the other hand, good and beau tiful language, as it is found in our best poetry, not only satisfies the child but inspires him. Many bf our great poets owe their success to some gift ed predecessor, and not only do we find this influence in their early poems, but we can trace u 2 same en- riching vein throughout all of their masterpieces.
 So it is with the child He cannot read, and enjoy good poetry without carrying away some part of it's style of expression, and great deal of en- thusiasm and inspiration and love of beauty.
 Especially when the children are young, poetry should be read aloud to them. Begin by reading from a good selection of poems ""The T-sy Ring" may be followed by Repplier's Book of Famous Verse; "Golden Numbers" and Palgra 7e's Golden Treasury" or "The Oxford Book of English Verse;" If you prefer, you might read the poems of Longfellow. Whittier, Bryant and Tennyson after you have finished The Rosy Ring. All these books are collections of rep resentative verse, and are useful to the child because they contain many short poems. easy to memorize.
 Among the poems written espe- cially for childrn are "Childs Garden of Verses" by Stevenson; "Nohsense Books" by Lear; Poetry for Chil- dren," by Charles and Mary Lamb; /; Rhymes of Childhood" by Riley; . Shutdown Songs," by Richards; When Life Is Young, by Dodge. We must not forget, either. the nonsense verse of Lewis Carroll or childhood poems of Eugene Field.
 Of appeal to young people are "L'Al- .legro" and ell Penseroso," by Milton; Lays of Ancient .Rome," by Macau- lay, and selected poems of Holmes, Shelley, Keats, Longfellow, Scott, Burns. Byron and Lowell.

CLOTHES

'EN ITH the large majority of the IEtH women the great question this lAAA winter is how to be chic with
 out expense for the dress all lowance of the average woman is not large. Despite this fact most of us possess the feminine and most lauda- ble instinct for looking nice.' e'
 Every right-minded, natural woman is wholesomely interested in her clothes, and it is her bounden duty to make herself attractive and to be well-dressed in the best sense-in the sense of not pandering to extrava- gance or freakishness, or going to any of these extremes which are merely the essence of bad dressing We do not want empty vanity and self-adornment, but we need the self respect engendered by a certain amount of elegance and suitably pret- ty attire, but simply to please our selves and keep us sufficiently high in our own esteem.
 Dress has an enormous effect on the mentality of womankind, and bad dressing is generally sign of either sIothfulness or a slackenfng of the mental and even moral attitude. Fine feathers are not necessary, but 1t is necessary to pay the great attention to your skin, your hair, your hands, your general grooming. Spend mon- ey wisely on good things if few, have all your etceteras, such as hats, shoes and gloves, well chosen and well thought out, your hair we'll brushed and prettily done. The tout ensem- ble that is soigne really achieves far more distinction and is altogether more agreeable than the one on which much money has obviously been spent.
 It has been well said that color is the salvation of the impecunious. A good color sense will save many dol lars in dress allowances. and the

WITH LOVE
 IN THE HOME

(EE OME should be the happiest, NHu brightest, cheeriest spot on p earth. AS life is what we
 make it, so also is home what we make it. The peaceful, happy home in some 'sequestered spot is loves abiding place.
 It may be but tiny shack in a mining district or stately mansion i1 g great city. What makes the real home, the happy home, the true home?
 A man and wife who love each oth- CT, who speak out to one another and to the world and are just what they seem; who keep their hands and hearts clean and give to the world the best they have, knowing the best will come back to them; who scorn to harbor revengeful thought; who have their convictions without malice and who are big and brave enough to forgive and forget when this is neces- sary.
 Sometimes, of course, one may err. then cannot the other overlook it, or if 1t is real fault help to overcome 1t? Blot out as far as possible the disagreeable things in life; these will come, but they grow larger when you remember them, and the constant thought of acts of meanness or worse still. malice, will only make us more familiar with them. Obiiterate every thing disagreeable from yesterday, start out with clean page for to- day, and write upon it, for sweet memory's sake, only those things which are lovely and lovable.
 Think that the loved one whose hand you touch, whose voice you hear and into whose eyes you look with so much confidence today may by to- morrow be gone past your touch. out of your sight and remembrance; mar
