DRUMMERS who make dozens
of calls a day, who drive
- further every week than
most of us do in a month, know a
lot about the efficiency and econ
omy of different motor fuels.
They nearly always ask for ''Stan.
dard'' Motor Gasoline.
This balanced gasoline gives quick
starts, even when the motor has
become chilled. 1t burns up COM
pletely, doesn't quickly choke the
motor with carbon or ruin the
lubricating oil with carbon and
unburned gasoline. 1t runs the
motor on a lean mixture and gives
big mileage per gallon.
sStandard'' Motor Gasoline leads
the procession in all these essen
tial qualities. 1t is the most per-
fectly balanced motor fuel we
know of-the result of innumer-
able tests for economy and eff
cheney, perfected refining proc

FARM WIFERY.

THE famous land army Of women
L who took to agriculture under
the stress Of war demands Is now dis
banded Some of It's work was re-
markably good, some Of IT very poor,
as is the case with most mundane
things. But one interesting fact is
noted. This Is that women seem to
do better with animals than men.
Women are especially valuable with
fine, high-grade, expensive stock. They
are willing to mother the young, to
take a world Of trouble to save an all
ing calf or lamb or chicken or turkey,
or to nurse q sick adult animal. They
work with more affection for their
charges than is the rule with men.
And affection appears to be an ex-
cellent commercial factor. Farm WIFE
ry pays.
Many girls are beginning to take
courses in the various agricultural
schools and colleges all over the coun-
try with a real ambition to take up
some form Of farming. Advice from
responsible sources seems to indicate
the ACCESSIBILITY of their specializing
on animal raising. Small sheep farms,
fancy poultry, blooded cattle will
prove paying fields. Girls who are
well-trained in such matters, and who
have liking for the work, can look
forward to success.
But an important development that
may be helped by judicious advertis-
ing and education is the employment
of women instead of men in large es-
Establishments that are given to the
raising of fine breeds on a large scale.
Once the women have proved their
worth in such positions they will find
1t an interesting and profitable profess
sion.

THE RIGHT THING
AT
THE RIGHT TIME
By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
WHEN HE DRINKS TEA.

TN THE minds Of q good many young
L men afternoon tea drinking is es-
sentially feminine pastime and the
young man who is versed In the gen.
tie ceremony is by these looked upon
as Miss Nancy sort Of person. But
many Of our soldiers who had been in
England came home with quite a
taste for the cup that cheers but does
not inebriate, and before long tea will
be quite the most stimulating beverage
that any one can get, anyway. The
prediction Is made that the custom of
tea drinking In the afternOon-already
as popular among men as women In
England-will become much more
general among all classes of Ameri-
cans. The large hotels are preparing
to see many more men In their tea
rooms. So the up-to-the-minute young
man had better become fairly expert
in the gentle art Of drinking tea
The idea used to be that when one
drank tea In the afternoon one must
hold ones cup and saucer deftly In
the left hand. 1t was considered quite
incorrect to let II rest on a conven-
iently placed table or stand. But now.
although we certainly do not sit at a
table when we drink tea In our homes,
we do not spurn the assistance Of the
little individual stands that come In
sets Of five or six and form a nest"
when not In use. At hotels and "tea
rooms" however, one takes afternoon
tea from a table just as one takes any
other meal.
Now, of course, one Is not supposed
to snake q meal of 1t" at afternoon
tea. If toast and cakes are served, a
couple of small pieces Of toast and one
or two cakes should be sufficient. 1t
is unusual TO serve anything more
than toast or little cakes o~sweet
crackers, with sometimes candies, or
jam with the toast. When jam Is
served, II is usually placed In small
portions on bit Of toast. When jam
Is served of course plate must be
used. otherwise the cake or biscuit
is very often simply placed on the
saucer.

NaII.MakIno In United States.

OF the early American inventions
for the manufacture Of nails the only
one which has survived is that pat
ented in 1885 by Ezekial Reed of
Bridgewater, Mass. In 1883 cut nails
were first made Of steel, and wire
nails were manufactured for the first
time in the United States about 1851.
Twenty-Five years later Father Goo
bel, priest, began their manufacture
In Covington, and the American Wire
and Nail company was established a
year later under his leadership. The
output Of cut nails has varied from
100000 to 100000 kegs a year,
while their expectation rose from 1895,
when IL amounted to 20,00OOOO
pounds, to over ten times those figures
in 1914.

Of marrying one who was her equal.
Wooden Boy-DOll was very unhappy,
for he knew no way of getting up
where Girl-Doll was hanging and he
was sure she never would come down
to where he sat on the floor of the
shop window.
At night he could hear Girl-Doll
and Boy-Blue talking and he heard
her tell him that all that separated
them was the Jumping Jack that hung
between them.
"Oh, DEAR" thought Wooden Boy
''instead Of one rival l have two. ]
never will be able to win her. Even
If could be hung on the same line
there would be many between u.s."
So little Boy-Doll sat very sad and
lonely on the floor and thought of his
sweetheart, far above him, at whom
he could only look, but not once did
she lower her proud little wooden head
to look at her true lover.
But one day, when all seemed lost
to little Boy-Doll, for Jumping Jack
had been sold and now there was
nothing to keep Girl-Doll and Boy
Blue apart, the spring that held Girl
Doll broke and down she tumbled
right beside Boy-Doll.
Girl-Doll looked up at Boy-Blue, but
he did not lower his head; she was
too far beneath him to be noticed.
That night, when all was still, Girl
Doll sat close to Boy-Doll, for the
shopkeeper had placed her there. ut
is very pleasant down here" she said.
II think shall like living here"
Then the heart of little Wooden Boy
went pit-a-pat and he grew quite bold.
"We are equal now" ne said, don't
you think we might get marriedT
"Of course, silly Boy" answered
Girl-Doll, that was why came
down."

Common Errors in English and
How to Avoid Them
"GENTS" AND "PANTS."

N ESPITE the fact that all critics
~ and even many writer's who are
not disposed to be very critical-have
condemned the use of the word
gents" for gentlemen" the former
word is still used in common speech
and In numerous advertisements
Clothing for ladies and gents" is ad.
vertised, and in announcements of en-.
tertainments we are told that Gents
tickets are 81, ladies' 80 cents" The
following was overheard recently
"Oh, Mary. did you see the man who
picked up my purse?" Eyes; he
looked like a perfect gent"
Never say gent" say gentleman.
The word pants" as an abbrevia-
ton for "pantaloons," is also con-
demned by critics; but "pantaloons" is
now seldom used, 50. the only word
that is left when one wishes to de-
scribe a mans neither garment, is

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"ZOUAvE."

RIOR to the World war, one
/ of the most dreaded branches
of the French army was the
Zouaves. a corps which was ia
nous for its reckless bravery
and fearless courage as 1t was
conspicuous by reason Of the
bright red and very baggy trous-
ers which II wore. The progress
of military science and the
great increase In the range OF
modern rifles rendered the red
uniform a target for all sharp
shooters, so the scarlet trousers
had to be replaced by a less con-
spicuous attire.
But the Zouaves, as q corps,
continued TO live up to their
reputation for daring-a reputa-
ton responsible for their name,
a somewhat more civilized rem
dering of the tribe-name Of the
Zouaouas, an extremely warlike
nation In Africa. The first levy
of Zouaouas was raised In 1880
by General Clausel and was
originally composed Of native
African soldiers with French Of
ficers. Gradually, the natives
were displaced by adventure
loving Frenchmen and, in 1841,
the corps consisted Of three bat
talions-each one of which has
carved a niche for itself In the
Partisan hall Of fame.

THE PATH.

1T WINDS its way along the shaded hill.
Disdainsng distance, seeking only
1t turns aside to linger by a rill
1t climbs slope to rest beneath the
trees
Or breathe the perfume of a Summer
breeze
Here time is nothing haste thing un-
known
The hot straight highway for the craze
of speed;
The path is made for them who walk
alone,
Whose God Is Nature, and the woods
their creed,
To follow bllndly where the path may
lead
No stern surveyor made It thus and so.
Nor north nor south nor east nor west
II tends.
1t dips to kiss the pool where lilies grow,
1t rises joyously where ivy bends
And meets in fond embraces with its
friends
Through brooding branches and embroid-
cred leaves
The sunshine filters in golden rain,
Transforms the tufted weeds to shining
sheaves,
The tangled grass to waving harvest
grain,
II The marshy muskeg to a purple plain.
This is a path OF velvet from the loom
OF droning Summer. Never human
hand
Wove such a pattern, bright with rose
abloom
Along its border. Never artist planned
This brilliant carpet flung across the
land.
Now princes leave their castles, kings
their thrones,
And unattended walk these sylvan
aisles.
They pause to muse beside this heap OF
More beautiful than all the granite piles
Reared with slow labor on their ample
miles.
Sweet, solemn splendor Of the silent wood,
More dear you are than all the haunts
Of men;
For never mortal in your presence stood
And listened to the whisper of the glen
But songs forgotten sang to him again.
Perhaps 1t is his mothers voice he hears.
The faint re-echo of her cradle Groom
That sends him cropping down the ended
years
To find some long discarded boon,
To find again some long-departed June.
Then, by the magic OF the shade and sun,
or tree and rose and brook and verdant
This world shall seem to be that other
Where feet walk never. yet where souls
have trod-
And he shall hold communion with his
God

ing drink for very young children. 1t

Immediately after milk.
The acids in fruit play an important
role In destroying those germs which
create gases and cause auto intoxlca-
ton. Fruit juices act on the kidneys
and at the same time are natural
laxative.
AS children suffer with their teeth,
when the little gums are swollen and
infiamed, drink of cool water will
give them much relief.
Water should not be iced but cool
enough to be palatable, either summer
or winter and the amount each indl-
vidual should take depends largely
upon the food eaten. If one eats

A Juicy, good favored apple Is better

daily and oftener. Scraped apple may
be given to babies.
To keep the body In good condition
drink freely of water before retiring
and early In the day. The water may
be hot or cold, suitlng the needs of
the Individual.
