Sc A MAN doesn't often praise,
"A some one said one time, because
he seldom seeks praise himself. y
No he doesn't go out after praise
very much--but he doesn't have to.
When he Is born his mother thinks
he is the most wonderful baby that was
ever born. and she continues to think 80
until his little brother comes along.
BY that time he has started to be-
lieve It himself.
"I'm big boy" he announces
grandly. "I'll hit you"
And for time. his own opinion of
himself is more than sufficient TO sat
isfy HMM fact, it would keep two
boys pretty we'll supplied, ~
Long before IL begins to die down,
or his mothers plain remarks and ms
fathers criticisms take effect, she :
comes along. ~
"Oh, shucks.' he remarks, blushing-
ly. when she first admires his skill IN
athletics.
''Do you like it, really" lie in
uuires. with uplifted, insincerely non :
chalanr brows, as the young lady ad-
mires his first sane necktie.
81 don't want to talk about me
he protests, ardently, when he brings
his first hard won raise home to his
admiring, praiseful wife. Lets talk
about you
But he doesn't say il until after she
has said all the complimentary things
she can think of,
No, he doesn't seek praise nr appre-
ciatiou he knows he can get it without
half trying
TT HIS wife fails him, there is always
l. daughter. respectful, sympas =
thetic clerk or stenographer, or the
mother who told him in the beginning
that he was wonderful.
Remember that. little spring bride
write it down on perpetual calen :
dar so that it will turn up every now
and then and be always there to re-
mind you.
He doesn't seek admiration or ap-
probation: that is he won't come to
you and beg you to say how fine and
splendid he is
And when Sou do tell him, he II re,
ceive it with an easy manner of pleased
Indifference, and he may even be a
bit bored by it.

He Saws Men DO Love

Dear Cynthia--In reply TO Justine -
men certainly do love and sincerely, too.
for ! am one OF that species and can
clearly tell you so
As Cynthia tells you, they show their
love differently. You know oftentimes
you hear of the stronger SEX" all men
classed as above. and. therefore. have to
live up TO that name. Now, what mean
Is. men do not express their feelings
openly but rather conceal them. whether
II be pain tnormaD, insults they take as
Jokes or love. Yes. dear girl (as l
Judge you are), men love. Their love is
silent and is only told 10 their loved
one. This Is all l can say Mt present
on this subject. Some other young man
or boy readers of this wonderful column
may enlighten you more

Cleaning Gloves
10 m" Editor OF Womur's Page
Dear Madam--Can white kid gloves nr
cleaned at home? II so, how? | should
also like TO know how gray suede gloves
may be cleaned.
Can you tell me anything of the origin
Of the superstition about opals?
You can clean white kid gloves with
gasoline, II you are very careful when
you use 1t. The work should be per-
formed outdoors, as, on account OF tue
inflammability of the gasoline, II IL
necessary to be extremely cautious.
Carbon tetrachloride will also clean
them. This can be purchased at any
drug store. 1t will clean the gray suede
gloves. too.
It.is strange, but among the ancients
the opal was always considered an ex-
ceedingly lucky and precious mineral.
The Romans ranked It next in value TO
the emerald; and, in the East, the in
habitarts OF that part OF the world
believed, and still do believe, that the
opal makes the wearer beloved of God
and man, so long as he trusts sincerely
In its power.
The unique character OF the stone II
the cause OF the remarkable supersti-
tious about 1t that have arisen.

There is something about the use OF

OF course. too, they have definite use,
making the water softer and having
very refreshing effect The incest kind

your first bottle, however. unless you
have made up your mind always to use

KNIFE WEEDERS
New Model n" Is Now Rea


Twenty-one years ago, Mr. Clayton
lived on farm and made his first
knife weeder- 1t had wooden run
ners, the knives were hard to adjust,
it was heavy and pulled hard, but it
did good work. Every year that he
stayed on the farm he made a new
model, aiming to decrease the draft.
increase the strength and decrease
the weight, and make all adjustments
simple and easy Steel runners re-
placed the wooden runners, and from
year to year important improvements
were placed on the machine, mate
rally increasing its efficiency and
value While on the farm, Mr. Clay
ton worked up quite business max
ing these machines and selling them
to his neigh bOrS. After he left the
farm he still continued to make a
new model every year, until he has
now perfected his New Model 21''
for the coming season This new
model is a mighty fine machine for
killing weeds and saving moisture in
any listed field, and it would hardly
seem possible that any further i'm
provements could be made upon it.
1.-The Weeder Factory, Hill City,
KAN is where this machine is now
made, and any farmer, within driv-
ing distance of the factory. can easily
take his car to Hill City and haul one
home. They are so easily taken apart
that two of the double-row machines
are frequently hauled in a Ford car.
The one-row machine weighs 95
pounds, the two-row $50 pounds, and
the three-row $50 pounds. The one
row machine sells for $50, the two
row for $50, and the three-row for
$50. These prices are for machines
| without evenerS, and with 4-fOot side
