something doing in the want line. She
is delighted to crafty their little

gratitude in the future, she is living in
fools paradise. Her awakening
comes when she finds that her life is
wholly apart from theirs. She cannot

Mothers usually live in fools para

it seems. They have glorious visions

whom she has INDUCED to the point Of

sure will marry great titled noble
man, falls in love with a wood chopper
and marries him. So on, all along the

this way the sunlight is admitted to

The floor, foundations, and walls
are made OF concrete. In the pens a

that the hogs will not have to lie on

and l by 8 is placed over the floor

The floor of the feeding pen can
also be made OF concrete, but q very

pose. Bank-run gravel can be used,

Therefore he's not to be appropriated

absorb him to such an extent that he
finds more pleasure in looking over

morning until the wee sma hours than

may be man subject to attacks Of
old love dreams; forswearing love of
all womankind because he had loved
and lost in his early youth or had been
the victim Of an unwise affection
Few men have to run the gamut Of
youth to their middle thirties without
coming in contact with some one WON
an whom they could love had they con
sidered it advisable after long and
earnest thought.
The single man who will not Woo or

own good reasons Hence, let him
alone if you would not incur his secret
enmity by inviting him to call if you

an interest in him.
No man is so busy that he hasn't
time to think of some fair-faced wom-
an. If his heart is touched, that d.
reefs his inclination to seek her So
ciety. The most bashful country youth
that ever lived knows how to tell his
love to the girl who has struck his
fancy. No man is too difident to ask
woman to marry him if he really
wants her. Most women think that
the wealthy single man should marry
when they see poor young men taking
wives unto themselves, though it costs
them an effort to stretch out their in

is considered unmateable has loved

II the unmateable men have their

net to draw him toward a woman than
for her to attempt TO make target OF

women are clever enough to discern

Sunshine is one of the most i'm

hogs are to be raised with profit their
living quarters must be kept in the
best possible sanitary conditions. The
best way to secure such conditions is
by having plenty of sunlight in all
parts of the house. For this reason
the hoghouse should be faced toward
the south. Simply facing it in this di-
rection, however, has no effect on the
back part of the house. Various de.
