No doubt your husband loves you
Just as much as ever in spite OF IDS

you just as much as ever.
The problem for you, then. is TO
bring his love and respect 10 the sur

actions.
To do this II will be necessary for
you to get over the idea OF thinking
OF him as bad tempered and hoorish
Think OF him as amiable and courte-

him.
And at the same, time increase your
attentions TO him. Be little more
considerate OF his wishes and tastes,
Go out OF your way to please him.
You may resent this, feeling that
you are demeaning yourself by it, but
you are not. Remember that you are
to gain certain ends, and the means

lavish with your love; compliment

How Shall ! Improve NY Husbands
Character.

C09F2Ctef.
II Is pretty difficult to reform your
husband after you marry him. II IL
hard enough before.
But still some wives achieve the
impossible. And many could achieve
what seems Impossible II only they
went about 1t In the right way.
TIE right way is not the way OF a
certain wife who wrote me;
Can you tell me hat TO do
to improve my husbands char
acter? He fs growing SO bad
tempered and boorish ] do not
know what to do. Telling him
OF 1t and asking him TO try to
do better only seems to make
him worse
Certainly telling your husband that
ne is bad tempered and boorish Is not
likely to make him more alnia3le- You
are suggesting to him the very thing
that you find undesirable.
And besides you are probably
arousing a sullen resentment from
which further angry storms may arise
at any moment.
The better way is TO suggest TO your
husband that he is controlled and
courteous by mplmenting him
whenever he shows the least signs OF
these qualities and ignoring him as
far as possible when he loses his
temper or acts in boorisa fashion.
Take pains to be especially polite
yourself even when he is most boor-
ish. Never lose your own temper, no
matter how angry you may become

TOO OLD TO LEARN.

A short time ago, man down in
Kentucky celebrated his l3lst birth
day. He celebrated it by exhibiting
himself at county fair Ito raise
money to pay off the mortgage on his
farm" What terrible record of was
ted years that celebration completed.
After life Of endeavor more than
double that Of the average man, he
was reduced TO exhibiting his gray
hairs and infimities to settle a por-
ton Of his debts.
There can be no other reason for
such necessity than lack Of thrift and
saving. He undoubtedly had strength
and health above the average or he
could not have doubled the span Of
life. He must have had uncounted OPP
portunities. The development of his
state and the nation has forced thous-
ands such into his path. Yet he OBJ
viously did not sieze or take advantage
Of them, through lack Of thrift.
1t is not unreasonable to suppose
that he earned more than q mere liv-
ing Throughout more than half his ex-
istence, Had he but practised regular
saving throughout a portion of those
years, he would have been so far re-
moved from poverty that a mortgage
on his farm would have been an abb
surdity. Few will refuse to concede
that it was possible for him to have
saved so cents week during half his
life. That sum deposited at per cent
interest compounded quarterly, the
rate now paid by War Savings Stamps
from the time he was 81 until he
reached &c would have given him ap-

proximately $3,264.13, more than
enough to have lifted his mortgage.
Instead Of being assured Of life
without financial cares he has strug-
gled on for &C years after for the bare
necessities Of existence. The road Of
thrift which may perhaps have been
more difficult hundred years ago
has been made smooth for present day
investors. There are few citizens Of
this country who can not save
SOMETHING every week. The gov
eminent savings securities, Thrift
Stamps, War Savings Stamps, Treas
ury Savings Certificates and Liberty
Bonds give opportunity for both safe
ty and profit for all such sums no
matter how large or how small.
Few men would care to live to be 1871
if the chief interest in life left at the
end of that time was what it was nee
essary to hand someone who allowed
them to live by the grace Of mort
gage. Investment in government Sc
curities will provide both for the pres
ent and the future.

DANGER In GROWING
TOO MUCH COTTON
Official of u. S. Department of
Agriculture Urges Safe
and Sane Farming

Cotton farmers and bust
ness men are in a critical stu
alton in the spring of 1919"
said Bradford Knapp Of the
United States Department of
Agriculture, in outlining at
recent meeting Of extension
forces some of the difficulties
of farming in the south in 1919
and the Importance of safe
farming.
IF the South plants as larg
an acreage to cotton as in 1918
and has good season result
ing in a large crop, the possible
danger 20 Southern prosperity
can scarcely be overestimated'
says Mr.. Mr.. Knapp.
"A well-balaneed system Of
agriculture is the best answer
to this problem, not only in
1919, but in any year in peace
CT in war. The safety and Sc
curity of the Southern people
depend greatly on the produc-
ton of the food necessary for
the increasing live stock"
The home garden, corn as
basis of Southern food pro-
duction, plenty of feed and for
age for live stock, increased
production of meat, milk, and
eggs, with cotton as a strictly
surplus crop, is the program
strongly urged by Mr.. Knapp.

COL new LAWS ARE
SIGNED BY GOVERNOR
Enrolling Committees Finish
and Other Bills Must be
Acted Upon Soon

Little Rock, April 2.-The
last of the bills passed by the
house and senate has been en-
rolled and was delivered to
the governor yesterday. This
is one day earlier than the
twenty days allowed. Under
the law, as interpreted by the
attorney general, the governor
has until Saturday to sign the
bills which have not yet receiv-
ed his signature. Up to yester-
day afternoon there had been
COL bills signed.
Governor Brough has ap-
proved 100 road district bills,
and yesterday he vetoed the
first one, for the Mablevale
road district in Pulaski county.
This was done at the request
of the author, Senator Owens,
and in response to the protest
of a large number of property
owners that the bill had been
hastily drawn and would work
an unnecessary hardship upon
many.
