FOR A BEAUTIFUL LAWN CUT
GRASS AT THE RIGHT TIME

The lawn grass should be cut early
and often. All through April, May,
and June the grass can be cut with
profit each week II should be cut
with lawn mower and let lie where
it falls. Do not rake the lawn. Do
not let the grass get so long before
cutting that it must be raked. With
the frequent showers of May and June,
the grass will grow rapidly after each
cutting, and the clippings will be
quickly hidden. During these months
of rapid growth, the clippings make a
mulch over the grass roots, protecting
them from the heat and routh of Au
gust and September.
Cut the lawn every week or ten days
in May and June, and until the intense
heat of midsummer Then put the
lawn mower away until the cool 0cto.
Der days. Let the grass grow long in
the hot summer time. In late Septem.
Der cut it with a scythe, rake off, being
careful not to rake down into the
mulch, and use the lawn mower as
needed in October and November

"Haye you set up your profit and loss

business achievement" These are
questions asked by C. E. Alfred, Farm
Management Specialist, Division of
Extension, University OF Tennessee,

Good farmers, high-profit men, today
are thinking in the future-beyond the
present-in order to anticipate the OPP
portunities and the difficulties to
come, Good farmers, in determining
plans for future advancement, likewise
give the closest of consideration to re.
suits already achieved.
Adequate plans for your coming year
call for just as careful survey of the
past, and just as definite charting
of the future as the high.price farmer
makes. Proper planning really means
more to you than to him, for you stake
your whole future on one thing-your
success in efficiently handling what
you already have.
In the first place, what about your
actual advancement during the past
year? Have you received an increase
in profits? Have you improved and
increased your farm business?
II not, what has been the reason?
Are you prepared for advancement?
Have you been able to analyze your

WHAT LIME DOES

No other substance is capable Of
performing the many different func-
tons that lime performs in the soil,
according to ]. c. McAmis, Soil Spe-
cialist, Division of Extension. Uniyer-

principal effects are as follows:
/. To neutralize acidity.
2. To counterfeit soil poisons
3, TO promote decomposition of Or
ganic matter.
4. To improve the physical condition
of the soil.
5. To promote, the growth of soil
organisms.

August, will make good yield for fall
and winter use, and the culls, If left
in the ground and undisturbed, will

ADHERED TO STRICT TRUTH
Parsons Remarks at Funeral Services
of Departed Sinner Remarkable
for Diplomacy Displayed.

One of the stories the late Judge
Brawley used to tell with gusto was
about the sermon of old Parson Hinton
of the Baptist church, at the funeral
of a miserable reprobate who had lived
within the bounds of his congregation.
So far as the parson was advised, the
deceased person had violated all the
Commandments, ''and then some," as
the saying goes, and the parson was
a truthful man and could not bear
the thought of going through an idle
service. He thought that it would
be better on the whole to let the de-
parted go without making any fuss
about it; but he was finally persuaded,
out OF respect for the surviving fam
lily, composed Of the best people in the
community, to conduct religious serv-
ices. The casket containing the body
of the deceased was taken into the
parsons church and placed in front
of the pulpit. There were the usual
emblems of mourning and an atten-
tive congregation. After the singing
of an appropriate hymn and sincere
prayer old Parson Hinton arose in
the pulpit, and, touched by his SYM
pathy for the grief-stricken family,
broke the deep silence by saying: "Our
brother who lies before us today had
some virtues, but they were mostly Of
negative order" He had spoken the
truth, and with telling effect.-Wash-
ington Times.

awake; she loved him when she was
awake and hated him when she slept.
But, as Freud has shown, our dreams
are an intimate portion of our person
alities and represent the fulfilment of
our daily lives; they color our lives
just as they take their form from
them. Unless could bring the two in
to harmony their future would be
wrecked.
81 had long formed the idea that
Mrs. Field was actually Lota, just as
Field was the Atlantean. But so many
lives had rolled between them since
that last passionate pledge was made,
to come, like all wishes, to it's ultimate
frui tion-you know the text: Ask
and We shall receive'-I say, so many
lives had elapsed that the soul of each
had taken it's own course of develop
ment. Field was no more the shadowy
hero of his book than the sweet-na-
tured New England girl was the
Priestess Lota. And this is the situa-
ton which I outlined to you this eve
ming at the beginning of our conversa-
ton. 1t was because it's citizens had
learned too many of natures secrets
that Atlantis disappeared, tradition
tells us. If these two lovers had known
nothing of the truths of reincarnation,
far back in the days when Atlantis
stretched, a mighty continent, where
now the ocean rolls, they would never
have made that VOW which, by it's very
nature, pledged itself to it's own full
flment. Their souls would have
passed into the limbo of things, ready
to accept whatever was in store for
them in other births, and therefore
best. But they had flung their self
will into the teeth of eternity and had
thus come together, not with the free
dom of their new lives, but pledged
to fulfil VOW which no longer CORE
sponded to their needs.
There were obviously two courses
before me; either to recreate the At
lantean and the priestess, as we'll as 1t
could be done, or to plunge both back
into the fathomless depths of eternity,
where they should both have been.
The former course would, in this mod

stroyed his earning capabilities, he
told me; if did not choose to restore
them could settle a handsome income
on him in compensation. I had no
right to ruin his life. OF course
yielded. But, in agreeing to hypnotic
him, I told him that under no circum-
stances would undo my work again
if, indeed, it could be undone. He as
sented and, placing him in hypnotic
sleep, recalled the sleeping giant to
the supraliminal world. Afterward
Field went away, and he wrote to me
week later saying that he was hard at
work on a new novel.
"All this had occurred when I was
last in America. I was called back to
Athens and did not return for nearly a
year. When I did so. one of my first
visitors was Cynthia Field. I confess
that the sight of her distressed me
greatly. 1 felt sure that some trouble
had occurred. Had Field broken down,
gone insane, left her? I was sur
prised and relieved when 1 discovered

herself.
"She had come to realize, she told
me, that in marrying Field she had I'M
dertaken responsibility for which she
ought to have fitted herself. Her hus-
band was a genius; he was largely
dominated by his imagination. To fit
herself for this responsibility she had
read his unpublished work, and the
horror of the denouement had come
home to her so strongly that it had un-
strung her. She had begun to dream
of the book, and In her dreams she
was Lota, the Atlantean woman, kneel-
ing with Field before the sacrifcial
altar, and always she awoke just as
the priest plunged the knife into her
breast"
"Why is it that we always wake, in
such cases, just as we are killed or
asked Tarrant.
because, my dear Tarrant, such
dreams always represent a memory"
answered Emmanuel, looking at him
fixedly. There is not one of us who,
in ruder periods of history, has not in

Go to where he sits in that chair, and
stab him through the heart
"And this was the crucial moment,
for there is one exception to the rule
that the hypnotized person obeys
every suggestion of the operator. He
will never commit crime. That has
been shown over and over again! con-
science persists, and, gentlemen, ii
ever there were needed proof of the
existence of a moral order, you have it
there. Would she stab him? If so,
then she was verify Lota and not
Cynthia Field.
IL placed the weapon in her hand
and she arose, poised herself, and sud-
denly springing forward, caught Field
around the neck with one arm, raised
the other hand, and struck him to the
heart with all her power. He fell from
the chair. An instant later she had
sunk down upon the floor, uncon-
scious.
"Well, that was the end of Lota, gen.
tlemen. She fulfilled her purpose and
disappeared. It was Cynthia Field who
awakened, never to disappear again.
AS for Field, he often begged me to
try to complete his own personality,
but I had already had experience of
that and declined to do so. I made
him fight his battle alone. It was a
hard struggle; but under his wife's
loving ministration he gradually Won
his victory, and if ever the shadowy
Atlantean stirs in his heart, one look
into his wife's eyes dlssipates all his
fears"
"But thought she killed him!" ex-
claimed Paul Tarrant.
