Of minute fractions-the little chari-

disguise of joke, and the countless
other essentials to peace of'mind which
are few, simple and always close at

and should soon master the secret Of
happiness.

to perform over every type Of road
and under every condition in soft
fields. In other words, these build
ers are not merely proclaiming the
value of their commodity but are prov

demonstration.
The need of power wagons on the
farm is evidenced by the number al
ready owned and operated by Ameri-
can farmers. The potential market for
motortrucks In the farm field has not
until recently been given appreciate
attention by the big truck builders and
distributors. They have put forth
practically no effort to supply this
field, but the farmers need of motor

Sew farmers will argue against the
value of the power wagon in their
homes" says Official Lecturer Kroh.
"what they need is intelligent instruc-
ton as to size, power. body and tire
equipment. and cost Of operation.
"The evolution In the methods Of
production on farms from the hand
planter, cultivator. the scythe and
strike to the more modern machinery,
such as self-binders, ETC., drawn By
horses and later by tractors was a
perfectly natural trend of progress.
Just as natural Is the evolution from
the pack on the back, the camel. the
on cart. and the horse-drawn vehicle
to the power wagon to solve the farm
er's haulage problems.
From 1850 TO 1900. when the old

when the more modern methods have
been in vogue. farm values have In
creased from $4,000 100000 TO s7b..

every night, and apply 1t vigorously
drying the hands thoroughly; use a
teaspoonful Of borax to a basin of
water.
Any simple soap may be used. but
strong kinds should be avoided. A nail
brush is necessary, and an inexpensive
one will be MS cleansing as a costly
one.
AS soon as the hands are wet they
must be lathered, and then the brush
rubbed over the soap and the palms
and backs scrubbed, brushing so the
skin will not be irritated, yet suffi
GENTLY brisk to take out the dirt.
To Whiten Hands.
A very good bleaching paste can b
used at night, avoiding the nails, with
pair of kid gloves worn over it.
Snowy hands are produced by dip
ping them in almond oil; let them abb
sorb all the oil, and then dip them in
French chalk and wear pair of loose
old gloves that night. Another plan
is to wash the hands In peroxide of
hydrogen, letting 1t dry on them, and
then rub on cold cream and wear old
kid gloves. In the morning wash off
with lemon juice, vinegar or cider, hot
water, and then disappearing cream.
Stained Hands.
Cream of tartar will remove dye
stains from the hands. Rub with soap
and apply the powder thoroughly.

Beauty dOctOrIng has become a rec
ognized profession, and the use of To-
tions, cleansing creams, and many
other toilet preparations, is an estab-
hshed habit with thousands of wom-
en-. There is no getting away from
the fact that complexion and hair re-
spond TO the care and treatment that
counterfeit the ravages Of sun, wind,
work and, to great extent, time.
Those who have most successfully
combated these enemies Of beauty say
that 1t is the little time (say a quarter
OF an hour) that is given EVERY DAY
to the complexion or the hair, the reg
ular biyearly visit to the dentist,
whether there is an apparent trouble
with, the teeth or not, and the ability
to avoid worry that has kept them
looking young and fair for many more
years than their negligent sisters.
Care of the Hands.
Hands get considerable rough
treatment, but some women manage to
keep them slightly Notwithstanding the
homework they must do. The homely
and inexpensive oils, acids and pow
ders that anyone has will answer as
well as any others in the care of the
hands.
First of all the hands must be thor
oughly cleaned before treatment for
any defect is applied to them.
A securing brush should be used
with mild soap and lukewarm water
