My mother was born and reared IN

the chores. grandmother put away all
her work In the kitchen, and then the
entire family gathered IN the best

lesson, or had a reading from the
Bible. led by grandfather, and all the
family retired not later than 3 O'Clock.
In the morning. after doing none
but the absolutely necessary chores on
the farm. the team that had not been
used the day before was hitched up to
the big four-seated wagon and the en-
tire family including the hired" help,
went 10 church. There was preaching
service in the forenoon. and then we
adjourned TO lunch for ourselves
and the team. Then we went ID to
sunday-schooi service. and after an In
terval there was another preaching
service, after which we hitcheds up
and drove slowly back to the farm

In Arizona you can buy the same tooth

California fruit growers advertise their

There can be no division in a country so

Advertising is the daily guide to what is
good to buy.
\ Advertisements give you the latest news
from the front line of business progress.
Reading advertisements enables you to
get more for your money because they
tell you where, what 7nd when to buy.
And it is a WeII-knoWn fact that advertised
goods are more reliable and better value
than the unadvertised kind.
Some few merchants persist in spasnodic
advertising, which is good deal like the
farmer who plants his crop and expects to
reap a bountiful harvest with one or two
civilizations. It's just as necessary or es-

public in good and bad weather as it is for
our farmer friend to keep continually on
his job if he hopes toVreap a reward for his

for something to read. Try it, then continue the
