LYRICS OFLIFE
BY DOUGLAS MALLocH
THE MAN YOUR BOY WILL BE.

Y YOU sometimes worry. wonder what
W Your boy will be a man:
J. You like to look ahead a lot
The future try to scan.
You hope he'll be man in fact
AS well as man in size,
And SO his every boyish act.
You watch with anxious eyes.
But do not worry-you can tell
The man your boy will be-
If he the truth will follow well
You try to make him see;
You need not watch his nights and days
In search of guilt or guile
You only need 10 turn your gaze
Upon yourself awhile.
There is the place for men to look.
For fathers to inquire;
Sons do not learn life from book.
They learn 1t from their SIRE
The rule you make your boy obey
Must be the rule for you
The boy will heed the thing you say.
But more the thing will do.
1t is not difficult to know
The future Of the lad,
For he will very likely grow
Exactly like his dad
The life he leads as time unfolds
When boyhood days are fed,
Will be the life he now beholds-
The life his father led.

whats i'm a Name?"
BY MILDRED MARSHALL
Facts about your name; It's history; mean
ing; whence il was derived; significance;
your lucky day and lucky jewel.
HORTENSE.

r TORTENSE is essentially French
name, though she has been
adopted by all countries and she
has the almost unique distinction
among feminine names Of having no
contractions, diminutives or offspring
of any form. Hortense she begins and
Hortense she remains throughout his
tory, with the single exception of Italy
where the H. is sometimes dropped
and she is called Ortensia.
Like Sylvia. she is something of an
ancient sylvan name, having come
originally from the Latin "hortus,"
meaning a garden. The slave who
tended those elaborate Roman gardens
was called hortensius and, finally
through some strange quirk of fancy,
it came to name an honorable old
plebeian game.
For many centuries it continued in
Italy and gradually the masculine form
Ortensio came into use as q proper
name, quickly followed by the fem
mime Ortensia. The most famous Or
tensia of those days was Ortensia
Mancini, the niece of Mazarin. This
notable lady carried her name into
France, where the French straightway
placed the stamp of their language
upon it by calling it Hortense. Since
that time many famous women have
borne it, particularly those of royal
circles.
Hortnese's jewel is the diamond,
which is said to give its wearer fear
lessness, invulnerability and to bring
victory in any endeavor. provided,
however, that it is received as a gift
and not purchased. To exercise its
best power 1t. should be set in gold
and worn on the left hand. It's po-
tency for Hortense is concerned not
only with lovers. but is extended to
enhance the love of husband for his
wife. Saturday is her lucky day and
six her lucky number.
The daisy. signifying innocence. is
Hortense's flower.

the marvellous development of women
as to the business world. The coming
one is sure to see an equally amazing
entry into the world of political work.
So far women who have been ap-
pointed to various city or state posi-
tions have not had to play politics.
They have been given such positions
because they were fitted for them and
had the necessary training. That is
the right spirit. Get your training and
do your studying, know your problems
and the type of people with whom you
must work. If you are fit for the job,
you have as good chance as your
brother to get it--or you will have be-

Most Efficient.

Horses working In the fields not only
require good care and feed but they

Horses that have had their teeth

Horses with poor teeth canno, digest

spent in rasping the teeth down level
is often well spent.

MINERAL MIXTURE FOR HOGS
Animals Crave Something in Addition

Growth Requirements.

Hogs need certain minerals to meet
their growth requirements. One such
mixture that has proved satisfactory
is composed of: Charcoal, 80 pounds /;
wood ashes, 90; epson salts, 3

soft coal are good. 1t is well to keep
mineral mixture before the hogs all
