MANNERS, MARRIAGE

ND it ever occur to you that man.
- nerS have quite as much to do with
happiness in marriage as temperament,
and that many a separation laid to in
compatibility Was due more than to
anything else to plain bad manners ON
the part of the two persons most con-
cerned?
And good manners are made up of
att.Ition TO a lot of seemingly little,
triiiIng things. For instance, there is
the matter of interrupting Every
one knows this is bad form, and most
persons guard against interrupting
mere acquaintance, associates in BUSH
ness or society; but they are not so
careful about interrupting members of
tlleir own family. And time comes,
after you have been interrupted again
and again, when it begins TO irritate
to the point of evaporation. Then
there is the habit of contradicting. You
guard carefully against fatty contra

Thousands Have Kidney

4 Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, N
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applications
are declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease. DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is Oh. sale at all drug stores in bottles
of two sizes, medium and large

great preparation send ten cents to DR..

Puss in the village, for she wanted
her daughter to have the very largest
party that had ever been held in Kit

Everyone was glad to come, and,

preparations going on, all trying to
look their best at the wonderful birth

affair and the barn was to be used
for games. and as soon as it was
dark Mrs. PusSumS and her daugh-

Salt in the Ocean

The best supported modern theory
is that the ocean has been salty from
the beginning of time. The old idea,
that the salt in the sea was brought
to it little by little by rivers which
washed it out of the land, is discredit-
ed by the fact that there is great differ
ence between the salt of ocean water
and that of inland salt lakes formed
by evaporation of river water. On the
other hand there is great similarity
between the salts found in the ocean

WARM RECEPTION FOR MITES
Kerosene Will Prove Efficaelous In
Keeping Pestiferous Little
Parasites Away.

Hot weather brings the roost mites.
They multiply so fast that the hen
house is soon swarming with them.
The egg yield then drops to almost
nothing.
"The process of keeping out the
mites is one of the simplest in poultry
culture" says A. G. Smith, head of the
poultry division at University farm.
"Kerosene will do 1t. 1t is easily ap-
piled, either by a broad fiat paint
brush or a spray. The paint brush will
save kerosene, but takes time. The
spray will save time and use kerosene.
Take your choice, but paint or spray
the roosts and supports with kerosene
before the mites put in an appear
ance.
"The morning is the best time, as
the roosts will be dry and much Of the
odor will have disappeared before the
hens seek the roosts. Repeat every

PLAN FOR SUMMER SPRAYING
More Care and Attention Necessary
Than Work In Winter-combi-
nations Save Time.

Summer spraying requires more care
and attention than winter or dormant
spraying because summer sprays must
be applied after the buds or leaves are
started and hence when there is dan
ger of injuring the foliage. The COM
mon spray for the control of chewing
insects is arsenate of lead, but arse
nate of calcium is gaining in favor.
Paris green is still used to some ex-
tent on Irish potatoes and tobacco.
Nicotine sulphate, or tobacco parts,
sometimes called blackleaf, is effective
against plant lice. Bordeaux mixture
is an effective spray when reduced to
summer strength for apples. pears.
grapes and other fruits.
But there are combinations for vari-
Gus fungus diseases and insect pests
that save time and trouble and are
highly recommended by practical Or
chardists and gardeners.

widespread application. So hitting
the ball is not all of golf. Mechanical
skill with the clubs is very far from
being all there is to the game.
Certain benefits, such as fresh air,
exercise and the rest that comes from
change of scene and occupation are
obvious. There is no way to reach
that mysterious thing which we call
the brain, except through the muscles
and the senses. Therefore to play
hard and happily in the open air is
at once the best antidote and prepara-
tiOn for work. Walking is good, but
it doesn't always prevent the mind
from keeping on with its troubles:
Here's where golf comes in and fills
the bill. You can't play golf and keep
your mind on something else.
Students of games say that the very
best game in the world is old-fashioned
American poker. Why? Because it.
is the happiest possible combination
of skill and luck. There are people
who hold that finished course in
poker is the nearest equivalent to
liberal education.
A game of golf, by the way, can
be made several games in one. You
may play, for instance, against an
opponent, against Colonel Bogie. and
against your own best score.
Golf may or may not equal poker
as a liberal education" but unless the
PLAYER is fool golf will teach him
many things.
Golf has always taught sObriety. A
man cannot play good golf unless he
keeps his eye on the ball and the
average man cannot drink and keep
his eye on the ball.
Golf teaches mental concentration.
One can't Just hit the ball and trust to
luck. He's got to wake up his mind
to do certain thing. and try his best
to do it.
Golf teaches self-mastery. A man
can't lose his temper and play golf.,
He can't lose his nerve and play golf.
He can't lose his head and play golf
Golf teaches honesty-as many Il
man has learned to his surprise. HOW
often has Il man who wouldn't cheat
ON his score been tempted to improve
the lie of his ball? Some men who
wouldn't cheat an opponent have round
themselves cheating themselves.
Golf teaches good sportsmanship'
What is the good sportsman? He IS
the gentleman of sport. Many man
is sportsman enough to lose grace
fully: it is harder for many to win
gracefully.
Golf teaches a man to pick out me
right men for friends to tie to. TO
camping with man to try nm OUT
is the motto of the woodsnen. So
golf shows up the player. 1t lays pare
the boaster, the cheater, the biufter,
the fellow with yellow streak ana
the chap with temper and malice anu
jealousy. 1t reveals the fighter the
sportsman and the white man.

become sour as a result of the multi
plication of bacteria in the film of
milk left in the can. Cans that be-
come foul in this way are hard to
clean when they arrive at the plant.
Investigations show that hotels, res
taurants, bakeries and other places
which buy milk in wholesale quanti-
ties do not always give proper atten-
tion to the containers. AS soon as the
cans are emptied they are placed on
the doorstep or left in a warm room
until collected by the dealer. They
return to the plant teeming with bac-
terra, and the mechanical washers
will not always clean and sterilize
them thoroughly. They must be
soaked, washed by hand with brush,
and then sent to the machine washer.
Consumers can help great deal in
making 1t easier to maintain safe
milk supply. All that is needed is
little care at the right time, says the
department.

In 10 southern states 2,042 boys and

The number of boys and girls in all
