A Word to Husbands.

Love and appreciation are to a wo-
man what dew and sunshine are to
a flower. They freshen and brighten
her, whole life. They make her strong
hearted and keen-sighted in every
thing effecting the welfare of her
homo. They make her to cherish her
husband when the cares of life press
heavily upon him; and to be a very
providence to her children. To know
that her husband loves her and is
proud of her and believes in her; that
even her faults are looked upon with
tenderness; that her face, to one at
least, is the fairest in all the world;
that the heart which is to her is the
greatest and noblest, holds her sacred
in his innermost recesses above all
other women, gives a strength and
courage and energy and sweetness
and vivacity which all the wealth of
the world could not bestow. Let a wo-
mans life be pervaded with such an
influence. and her heart and mind
will never grow old but will blossom
and sweeten and brighten in pefpetu-
al youth.

Chicago has just had cleanup

suggesting a cleanup week for Grand

How much we could improve some of

Consider the Local Dealer.

Do we all patronize home industry
as we should? You don't expect grass
to grow without water; then you
can't expect local stores to enlarge
their stock to suit your needs if you
don't buy from them. We should
have more cooperation between our
merchants and their customers. De
mand sooner or later creates a sup
ply. If you want something you
can't get in your town stores, tell
your dealers, traders or merchants,
let them get it for you. Give them
the chance at least to fill the bill
With little cooperation we will
have neighboring towns giving us
their trade instead of giving them
ours.

1t is worse than useless to attempt
to repress girls natural impulses.
The society and companionship of the
opposite sex is a perfectly natural

Many of our yuong women are con-
sumed with ambitious desires-they

The talk of women's extravaganza
is only accepted as truth because the
man keeps the ledgers and his wife
has nothing but debt in them. 1t
isn't fair. IF man were to deal hon

own expenses and all he gets for them
the woman would rise up before him
a perfect angel of economy and make
him blush.

MY PA.

Ny pa he went to town one day about
ayear ago
And spent whole half dollar t. sec
an Auto Show,
While me and ma we stayed at home
to feed the hogs, and milk.
And ma said all them city folks would
be there dressed in silk
And pa would look jes like a fool in
his OF workin' clothes
She lowed he'd better stay at home
stead of see auto shows.
You know my ma was always sick, she
had to work so hard
A dom all the kitchen work an rem
derin' of the lard
She has to wash an iron an scrub an
boil an bake an stew
Until she says her back jes feels Ike
it would break in two.
! And men she says to me, ~ Dung man
goodness only knows,
Don't do like your pa has done-go
bugs on Auto Shows"
And men when pa came home that
night we all had gone to bed
An he jes got bite or two an never
nuthin said.
Mex mornin' me and pa got up and had
to eat alone
For ma was sick and staid in bed and
my how she did groan.
But me and pa, we went to church ar
pa seemed full of fun,
An touched OF Bill up with the whip
until he made him run.
An when he stopped pa looked aroun
to see how far we came,
An men l heard him say word that
made me blush with shame.
An pa he went to town again mos
every night that week,
An ma was mad, oh awful mad, she
wouldn't hardly speak.
But Saturday pa walked to town a
happy as lark,
An didn't get back home again ii
way long after dark.
Men Sunday mornin' 1 got up pa h
was still in bed,
'You an ma can do the chores, Tn
feelin' SICK" he said.
So we went out to do the work, | slit
the OF barn door
An there we saw a bran new car /;
standin' on the floor.
Ma she forgot her poor lame back an
jumped about so high,
An men she run an grabbed my p;
and jes begun to cry.
An men ma said to pa, "My dear, gi
up and stretch your legs
Cause we'll have pancakes pretty soo7
with nice fried ham and eggs"
, Amt women jes the queerist things
ma never plains no more,
If pa says, "Come, let's go to town,
her back amt never sore,
She likes to live out on the farm Sh
says, "It isn't far
To 60 to town or ennywhere since p:
, has got car"

Hitch your wagon to a star, aim
high, be dissatisfied with little plans.
The world is full of easy things, they

thing hard if you want to make a

who looks over and beyond his limi-

with your lot, but not satisfied with a
