CONSISTENTLY THE FARMERS
 FRIEND

Fayetteville. Numerous stories are being told to the effect that hunt CTS are having unusual success in getting quail. One party consisting of three men reported the killing of one hundred twenty-five birds. What does all this. mean? It means that the farmer is having his best friends murdered by the thousands, declares w. J. Baerg, Entomologist of the State Experiment Station at Fayette- vile.
 @The quaf, or Bob-white, among all the feathered tribe is perhaps more consistently the farmers friend than any other bird, says Mr. Baerg "The robin has a good reputation for aiding the farmer and fruit grower in the control of insect pests; but in certain seasons of the year he devel- ops strong desire for such articles of diet as cherries and grapes.
 ''The Bob-white causes positively no damage to the farmer. From June to September it lives largely on insects. And what is important, it feeds almost entirely on such species as are destructive to farm and garden crops. Among these are: various spe- eies of grasshoppers, chineh bug, cot ton worm, cotton boil weevil, Cobra do potato beetle, and striped cucum- Der beetle. The number of insects consumed is shown in part by the fact that from 75 to over 100 Colo rado potato beetles have been found in quails' stomachs.
 Young quail are fed almost ex- clusively on insect food. They con- sume their own weight of insects each day.
 That insect pests of cotton and corn are increasing in Arkansas can easily be shown by the large num- Der of complaints of insect injury that come to the Experiment Station During the last season not only did the common pests such as the boil weeyil, boil worm, fall army worm, and others exact their heavy toll, but a number of species, heretofore not injurious, occurred to such large numbers as to cause severe injury. Among these the cotton square borer was especially prominent.
 "Ohio, by an act of the Legislature has declared the Bob-white to be a song bird. The killing of it is punish able by heavy fine This is the prop CT way to protect the farmers best friend. A closed season covering less than 365 days in the year offers lit- tie or no protection.
 "As long as we have no such law the city folks have fine opportunity to show some of that much talked-of sympathy for the farmer, and also that genuine interest in his welfare that we hear so much about. One of the best things that the city man can do for the farmer right now is; to de- sist from murdering the farmers best friends"

THE SONG OF ETERNITY

"The music of Gods song rushes over the earth from sky to sky. 1 want no tawdry jewelry fastened upon me to jingle against it's sweet whis- perings.
 I want my life clean and bare of useless inconsequenaes that I may be filled and filled again, like a clean, straight reed, with the glory of the great song.
 I catch the note up from the dust 1; from baby lips; from strange dark corners where the poor are massed; from clouds: from old men's whisper ings; 1 hear it above the claeking typewriter in a newspaper office; 1 catch it trailing finely through the voice of misshapen clerk in the base ment Of a department storel it mur- mers through the cultured musings of a world traveller as he sits at ease on mountain ridge; l hear it in peb- ble thrown against lonely shore; in the command of my enemy; in a gath ering of police at park; in trivial common places 1 hear the song, and in my still closed room, and it is the same song that is ringing from star to star.
 Because I have heard this song I cannot fail.
 viii follow it from morning to morning.
 1t will lead me from a known brightening now to a long sweet for ever Ripping exquisitely ahead 1t will assure for me my citizenship in eteunity Gertrude Sanborn, in T Citizen of Eternity"

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR now
Druggist Says Ladies' Are Using
Recipe OF Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless. is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture Of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrac-
tive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition Of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that no one can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darl1ening the hair
after a few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it
an appearance of abundance.-Adver-

The Diary of an Engaged Girl
BY Phyllis Phillips

My first assignment was to go down
and get some sketches of the crowds
bathing at Coney Island. May | say
that no more pleasant job could have
been selected for me on a mid-July
day?
Filled with delight I blew out of
Deans office and hied me to the very
boat that Jack and l had had such a
jolly time on few days beforehand

Just for luck l sketched some of
the funny couples on the boat going

Once arrived at the Island I wan

people to sketch, for they were all
so interesting and amusing.

Mr.. and Mrs. Pee-Wee (dwarfs from
some side show or other) enjoying
themselves by being whirled about in
the old tubs over the bounding waves
that Jack and l had so hilariously
sampled. They looked so tiny and
were so jolly as they were tossed this
way and that, and the crowd enjoyed
It so.

days of affectation when Ediths turn

cover that even the somewhat simple
name of Ellen is capable of adap-

The name comes from the Greek
root Ele which was first used in the
name of the moon diety, Selene.
From Ele again sprang the most noted

latter name made Its first appearance
in Scotland where the pronunciation

the Elgys Ian, the church of Helen,
which was greatly revered by the in
sular Kelts. Ellen has achieved al
most as great popularity in this
country as her predecessor, Helen
Her vogue was greatly increased by

father loves you and your mother.
Your chance of bringing about a recon
is to convince your mother
that your father still loves her. She
seems to have become very cynical
and you will have to overcome her
skepticism. If you can not get your
mother to see that your father loves
her and she persists In her attempt to
get a divorce, my advice would be to
go with your father. Your mothers
bad temper is likely to make life very
unhappy for you. You are sure Of
your fathers love, and he probably
needs you more than your mother
does. When she misses you both, as
she undoubtedly will, her remorse may
cause her to love both of you again
and your little family may be happy

Then, too, we'd find a group

Perhaps the raccoOns would
feel flattered on seeing their

maybe our old friends the op-

Certainly the army Of rabbits
that would have to be on hand
to fill the many skins they once
wore would be bewildered at the

Dear Mrs. Thompson: work in

good money. | would like to have
some of 1t to spend, but my father
takes 1t all every week. He does not
need it, but he says he has a right
to take it from all of his children.
What do you think about it?
1t is truly hard to have your earn
ings taken from you, for it leaves
you little incentive to work think
you ought to come to an understanding
with your father and tell him that
you will not be extragavant with your
money. Ask him to help you to plan
budget of your expenditures, allot-
t1ng so much for your board, to be
paid out each week to your mother
The rest of your salary ought to be
carefully divided among the following
items: Clothing, recreation and saw
ing. Do not forget the last item, for
in these days of surprises it does not
seem safe to have no nest egg to
fall back on in case of emergency, and
then, too, your father will be better
satisfied if you promise to save
certain amount each week
A good way to save is to go to
the bank on the way home from the
office after you have received your
pay. If you put your money in the
bank, you are not SO likely to spend
it for unessentals.
| think that if you go over the mat
ter with your father in this business

be willing to help you handle your pay
yourself. But you must make up
your mind that when you have once
gained his confidence you must keep
your word and do what you have
promised with your money.

AS a Woman Thinketh
SEEN THROUGH A BRIDAL VEIL

SEEN THROUGH A BRIDAL VEIL
The Bride has gone.
The Little Bride, light-hearted,
radiant, debonair has gaily stepped
upon her Ship Of Fate, today.
And set sail for the Port of Hearts
Delight, and the Harbor of Eternal
Love,
What does she see, wonder, as she
looks out at Life, with those young
eyes of hers?
What does she hope to find. at the
end Of her Rainbow of dreams?
What does LOVE mean to her?
Does it mean the transient glamor
Of the weddng-day. the perfumed rap
ture of the betrothal kiss, a momen-
tary fash OF glory-like the rose
tinted sunset.
Or does it mean the quiet, steady
radiance of an altar-fre-the peaceful
glow of consecrated candles?
Does it mean the thrill of achieve
ment, Of conquest, the glitter Of a
wedding-ring--
Or the perfect fulfilment of a divine
destiny?
Is it a rosy dream of an eternal
honeymoon, in starlit gardens sweet
with heady incense
Or is it a quiet pleasant vision Of
a lampit room, an open-fre, mono
grammed silver, bright new dishes,
and piles Of snowy hcmstitched linen,
proudly displaying HIS initials in
every corner?
VIII it inspire her to sit and dream
Of Him, all day. to spend long hours
at her looking-glass making herself
more radiantly beautiful for his eyes;
to live only for his compliments and
Kisses
Or will it bring her down to sane

Of her petty vanities. and prompt her
to concentrate on economy and cook
ing, and on all the dear delightful,
