bad phases of the poultry business.
Experts who have brought their hens

THE HOME CIRCLE
AND ITS INTERESTS.
Column Dedicated to Tired
Mothers as They Join
The Home Circle at
Evening Tide.

OF all places on earth, home is the
most delicate and sensitive. Its chords
move with breath; its fires are kind
led with a spark; its flowers are bruis-
ed with the least rudeness. Here our
hearts wear no covering, no armor.
Every arrow strikes them, every old
wave blows full upon them If we
would have a true home, we must
guard well our thoughts and actions.
The man who never praises his wife
deserves to have poor one. And the
man who praises a good wife more than
he deserves hasn't been born yet.
When crepe on the door tells OF a
mother gone, only those who have
moistened mothers grave with their
tears can fully understand and read
Alright the black threads in the bow.
ssss
Sometimes the hasty word has been
spoken, the sharp, snappish word been
carelessly uttered in the home circle
The true wife's heart so often bleeds
at the bitter, thoughtless, but cutting
word Of husband. When she is gone
O heaven. and he "weeps DER her bier"
he will remember it.
ssss
There are none of us so poor but we
can train a few roses on the humble
wall and their scent and beauty will
long be remembered, and many boy
instead of going to loaf upon the public
highway will linger at home among the
flowers. Moral degradation always be-
gins at home.
There are many happy homes. thank
God, in every community, and when
they exist there goes out from them
a blessed influence which can hardly be
over estimated. "A real home with
mother in it," whose hospitable doors
are ever open to those not so blessed.
is a wonderful power fer good.
ssss
Many child goes astray. not because
there is a want of prayer or virtue at
home. but simply because home lacks
sunshine A child needs smiles as much
as flowers needs sunshine.
We know from sad experiences that
Il is very inconvenient TO be poor. but
no man Is poor who has a happy home
and its does not require lace curtains
or velvet carpets TO make home hap
py.
The virtues grow about the home.
They cluster bloom and shed their
nerfime around the fireside. Love.hus-

Your beautifully kept house, busy

Why is it that we so easily forget
that the little things in life are what
make it easy or hard? A few pleas
ant words, a warm hand clasp, cor
dial letter, are simple things. but they
are mighty in their influence on the

our own lives sweeter at the same

Kansas Woman Regains

She Claims Master Medicine
Tanlac Gave Back Health.

The story of Mrs. M. E. Frank
lin, who is spending the winter
with her daughter at l43 North
Market Street, Wichita, Kans.,
of how her appetite, rest and
real former self were restored
after long sufferings from stom-
ach trouble, bronchitis, cough
ing spells, and dropping of mu-
cous from her head to her throat
and an almost general rundown
condition, proved one of the most
interesting of the hundreds of
Tanlac tales since the Master
Medicine was introduced in Kan
sas.
MY friends tell me am look
ing healthier than l have for a
long time" testified Mrs. Frank
lin, and it was all due to Tanlac.
heard of Tanlac by accident,
it was this way, a neighbor called
to see me one day and noticed
that / was not looking so we'll,
spoke of Tanlac and suggested
that / give it 4 trial. 1t set me
to thinking and the next time l
went down town / stopped in to
see the Tanlac Man and pur-
chased 4 bottle.
/ have taken four bottles of
Tanlac to date and l feel greatly
relieved, in fact such a change
has come over me that my friends
notice it and tell me OF it. My
appetite is good and l have gain
ed several pounds in weight and
l know Tanlac has benefited me
in every way"
Tanlac is meant to correct such
q malady from which Mrs.
Franklin suffered. There are
hundreds of people today in this
city and vicinity suffering from
theIsame ailments.
Tanlac can be obtained in Bax-

Get your garden plowed just
as soon as you can after the
ground thaws out. If it gets a
good freeze after it is plowed, so
much the better, as a good freeze
will sweeten the soil. Ifyou can
do so, it will be a good idea to
give the ground two or three
good borrowings about a week
apart. This will get rid of lots
of weed seed by exposing it to
the freezing atmosphere. And if
the weather should continue wet,
after it is time to plant, harrow
it some more. There is no dam
ger of getting the dirt pulverized
too much.
