that such recoil would be detest-
able In the matter OF such a great

the age when even the most God
given faculties must suffer the
Slight OF the years. Miss Marlowe
has not reached that period and
there is positively. as / said. no
change In her work. She is as
triumphantly exquisite today as
she was when she played Juliet at
Palmer's In opposition TO Mrs. Pot
ter at Dalys.
THoSE who go TO the Century to
see Julia Marlowe will see her
as radiantly adorable as ever. II
IA almost uncanny. There is that
strange note in her voice that rings
itself into your marrow, and there
is that q Iality of non.self conscious
ness that tho successful actress
seldom manages to keep intact.
She is extraordinarily young. I
could almost have believed myself
back at that long-ago matinee In
the old Bijou watching the young
debutante. She has every quality
that Viola in Twelfth Night"
needs, and they are qualities that
most actresses lack. Miss Marlowe
suggests, as no other actress can
suggest, the sunshine of youth.
and she has the art of being able
to put that idea "over," an art
which is not easiest in the world.
Those who like Shakespeare on
the stage-and l fervently trust
that those who don't will say so,
as they have a perfect right to do,
and certainly should do-can see
no performances anywhere to equal
those given by Julia Marlowe. Don't
forget that. There is no Shakes
perean actress before the public
today as phenomenally interesting
as Miss Marlowe. Those who have
never seen her-if there be such
unfortunates alive-are at least
able to do so at the present time.
And she can defy the terrible
"young generation" that collection
Of pardonably impertinent adoles-
cants.

GRAFTON says, "Ha! ha! So that's

CHOOSING FARMS.

Many. farmers, especially the younger men, in moving from one region to an- other, make serious errors in selecting farms, not because their judgment Is naturally poor but largely because they know only one set of conditions and are not able to weigh accurately all the new factors that must be taken into account, say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture Here the science of farm mana cement Is help ful, in that form the farm manage ment viewpoint the farm is put on a business basis.
 In doing this, however, the home side of the question must always be kept in mind. The farm home and the farm business are indispensable A desirable farm from a business standpoint, is. nevertheless, undesirable if it has no so- cial or community advantages. On the other hand, desirable living conditions are of little or no advantage unless ac- companied by successful farm busi- ness.
 farm may have fine buildings, good water supply, excellent roads and other such assets. yet If the soil is rocky, shallow or naturally infertile so that it's productive possibilities are distinctly limited, there will be no adeuuate income Tor enjoying the other advantages.

sPRoUTING sEED PorAroEs,


 Along toward spring every year Do- tatoes in the darkened cellars begin to sprout, and these long,l tender sprouts do much damage te the totatoes for seed. This sprouting can be avoided if the potatoes are taken out and spread thin ly in a light place where they will not freeze and permitted to grow as they wish Strong, short sprouts will show up in a short time, but these will not grow long. They will conserve the strength of the tuber. and when planted the sprouts will start growth much quicker than tubers not thus sprouted.
 Last spring 8 friend of mine cut the tips from the potatoes he bought to eat, leaving some of the potato with them. These tips produced strong green sprouts much larger Khan the sprouts on the remainder of the DO. tato. They were kept for weeks unti they were to be planted, and the cror produced was immense for the seaso1 and soil. never saw finer potatoes and there was an exceptional number to the hill with no small ones. am convinced that this large tip sprou is the strongest and best sprout tha the potato will produce.

TT MAY COST A PRECIOUS LIFE TC
 FIND OUT BY EXPERIMENT.

The heart of every user of tobacco pears a double burden. It does it's al- lotted task and then fights nicotine for supremacy. As long as the heart wins ne lives; when it loses he dies, but be- lore the final victory of nicotine you pass through many stages of decline and decay and suffer many bangs. Hearts are like human beings-some are stronger than others, therefore some hearts will stand more tobacco than others. but there is a limit to what any heart can stand. The man who puts this additional strain on his heart dozen times a day by smoking cigarettes, pipe or cigars-or chew ing tobacco-is taking a madman's chance with health and life to lose and nething to win but the chance that he may. lose them. He is indulging in a costly habit at the expense of precious health. Ask any doctor anywhere. and he will tell you that using tobacco is injurious and that it is far better to quit the habit than to experiment to find how. much tobacco your heart will stand without serious results.
 But the thought of quitting is un- pleasant to most men-even to those who know that tobacco injures them and to really quit takes more will

PEACH TREE BoRERs

For the erad / ltion of the destruc- tive peach tree vOrer the United States Department of Agriculture offers a new treatment, which consists of sprinkling mo crystals of a-dichlorobenzene around the base of the trees and covering slightly with earth. The substance is highly volatile, readily changing to a gas which is heavier than air and settles down through the soil. The gas is an effective destroyer of the pest. The para dichlorobenzene can be obtained at any drug store and costs about 25 cents a pound. pound is sufficient for eight Or ten trees.
