COUNTRY WOMEN
WANT TO MEET MEN

Another thing which handieaps
the country woman in afiiliating with
most national organizations is thai
she does not care especially for a
strictly women's organization. She
feels bit selfish in INDUCING in any
social activity for herself. because she
knows that her husband and children
are in quite as much need of whole
some social life Besides that, she rea-
Lies that her outlook on life is re-
stricted because she so seldom meets
people OF differing ideas. and she
knows that she can receive COMPARE
lively little benefit from associatine
with other women whose horizons
stretch no farther than her own. In
her social life she wants new people
and new points of view--new things
to think about when she returns to
the routine of her daily schedule--and
such help she receives in a mixed Or
ganization. S.e
AS New England woman wrote
me recently, I like a mixed meeting
because it gives me chance to meet
men, She went on to explain that
when the neighboring farmers came
to see her husband they usually did
their talking in the barnyard or the
workshop, so that she seldom saw
them. At church she could look, al
the minister and perhaps shake hands
with two or three other men on the
church steps All the church socie-
tics were for women alone. 1t was
only in the mixed meeting that she
met men in a social way and broad
ened her view OF life by discussing
politics the farm business. and cur
rent affairs with them on an equal
footing. This is apparently one of the
chief reasons why the Grange, the
Oldest farmers organization, has
been so well sustained for more thar
fifty years. and now numbers more
than eight hundred thousand farmers
and their wives in its membership. II
has survived where many other or
ganizations have failed, because il
adapted itself particularly TO the &C
tual conditions and needs of the coun
try woman Mary Week Atheson in
August Good Housekeeping.

Jelly FISH" FIGURE
SOON TO DISAPPEAR

The waist line is coming back and
the jelly fish figure must go, is the
last word brought from Paris.
That hitherto vague and vagrant
feminine dimension. the waist-line,
has been definitely established this
season by the scientists of the Rue
de Ia Paix and hereafter win be ac-
centuated hy the steel and elastic fct-
ters of the corset. The corset is back
from where the realities of Paris left
il just about the time the war broke
ont and furthermore. it is on its way
to America.
The requirements OF war uniforms,
which were many and varied, had
something 10 do with the abandon
ment OF the corset. causing women to
neglect the important matter of
figure.
But the designers OF this seasons
gowns are prescribing models that

SIR. Squirrel said he also ran past
Mr.. Bears that very night on his way
to the party and he was sure Mr.. Bear
was sound asleep from the noise he
was making.
Mr.. Rabbit said he. too, was sure
there was no use waiting any longer
for Mr.. Bear, for he had noticed that
all OF the windows were closed in Mr..
Bears house as he passed.
Mr.. Fox coughed to hide a smile
which he could not hold back and said :
Too bad, too bad and l had planned
so on giving him nice treat. We'll.

afraid he has fallen asleep and won't

but as he was not there TO use II. be-
ing the next animal in size, he guessed
he better sit in it himself.
1t was the plan he had all the time,
for Mr.. Fox was very fond of comfort
and planned to eat great deal that
night, as he had prepared things he
especially liked for the party.
But he had hardly seated himself
when the door opened and in came Mr..
Bear. all out of breath from running.
He was smiling and In his paw he
held the invitation that Mr.. Fox had
put under his door. Il almost missed

Mr.. Fox. of course, said that was
true and had to give up his chair to
the late guest.
Mr.. Bear did not waste time or
words. He began to eat as soon as
he was seated, beginning with the
honey, which he finished in short or
der.
There was not enough left for even
soup just as Mr.. Fox had thought. and
as he lighted the guests out that night
he looked up al the moon and shook
his paw. "YOu are the meddling old

party" And old Mr.. Moon smiled back

TO LEGISLATE AGAINST
WOMEN'S SMOKING

A bin introduced in Congress by
Representative Johnson of Mississippi,
to prohibit women smoking in public,
comes up for argument tomorrow be-
fore the House District Committee
and women cigarette smokers and
anti-smokers are expected to appear
in force before if to argue the ques-
ton for both sides.
A supply of cigarettes will be on
hand for the smokers to prove their
ability to handle the weed with the
same success as men.
/. 1t is understood that Johnson has
his eye on the governorship of his
native State and that he is depending
upon his success in stopping women
from smoking outside their own RON

Psychology And The Grocer

The retail grocer quickly gets TO
know the buying habits of his GUS
toners and knows that many things
supposed fnducive are not so at all.
The size of the packet does not al

suspicion. as a certain maker of a
patent breakfast food found when he
was able to double the quantity for
the money. The shape of can or pac-

why DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmers Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
SwampRoot has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
