NO" said Doris, as she superficial

So much stress has been laid by
farm building experts on the design
of dairy barns and the necessity Of
making provision for the health of the
cows that many farmers overlook the
fact that their work stock-horses
or mules-need and deserve a
healthful home.
On too many farms the stable
wherein the work animals spent the
winter and a portion Of the "a hours
Vt the summer days, is a basement
that is poorly lighted, admits practi-
cally no sunlight, and is damp and
foul. Needless to say that such a
stable Is not the best sort CT a place
for the animals.
Herewith is the exterior view Of
practical and economical horse barn.
The building itself is only 46 feet
long and SO feet wide, but it will
house dozen horses or mules, the
number needed on a good-sized farm.
The stable Is light and airy; it Is con-
structed so that a maximum of sun
light can be admitted; 1t contains
both single stalls and box stalls, and
after the stalls are in there Is room
for feed storage and mixing room,

TIE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

The slogan DO Your Christ
mas Shopping Early" is again be-
ing brought t6 the forefront. and
il is good one to continually
bring to the attention OF the pub
lie.
Every year the week before
Christmas is a nightmare to hun
dreds OF people who earn their
living by serving their fellow hui
man beings. Christmas finds
many shop girls too tired to APP
preciate and even TO understand
the glad tidings which the season
IS supposed to bring, because il
leaves many Of them almost ner-
volts wrecks from ovcrwork.
Mail clerks and carriers also
share the burden, the carriers, in
following their usual routes,
staggering under heavy loads
that would be unnecessary if the
public was 4 little more consid-
crate. The postoiliccs are
swampcd with packages which
could not be delivered on time il
twice the force of employees were
available to help out in the work
and the confusion oftcntimcs is
the cause Of mistakes. damage TO
parcels aud deliveries to wrong
addresses. The result usually is
unjust censure for those who
sought to do more than was hui
manly possible.
Do your shopping now, mail all
parcels as carly as possible, and
YOU will save wear and tear on
your nerves, will be given more
time and consideration, and in adj
dition will win the gratitude OF
hundreds of other men and
women.

Something to
Think Ab0uf
BEWARE OF SHADOWS
By F. II. WALKER

ITO MAKE ones self happy. TO
keep on the sunlit trails, TO go
about the days duties with a light
heart and a willing hand, one must
keep constantly in the splendent, radi-
ant rays from the worlds above.
II is not easy 10 wear q smile when
troubles hover near. but by continued
effort in the right spirit, ii can be
done.
Many of our annoying perpleyities
are of our own making, consequently
they can be avoided b. turning from
them when they first knock at the
door of our hearts for admission, and
shutting the door in their faces.
We are inclined to brood over some
fancied wrong until il becomes
formidable ghostly thing that baunts
orr life from day TO day. We are
prone to forget that we are rational
beings possessed of spiritual powers
capable of turning night into day by
grain or two OF faith. which in our
moments Of dependency we frequent
ly overlook, or cast aside in quest OF
balm OF our own.
we art not willing to accept the
sacred promises given TO us by the
Master OF Men. simply because we
prefer the shadows OF doubt rather
than the glorious sunlight of endur-
ing truth. so we continue to stumble
and fall in the darkness of our crea-
ton and blame tire Fates for our mis-
cradle plight.
Human vanity and an exalted idea
OF our blood-and-ilcsh proves are in
most cases responsible for the Sor-
rows. tears and disappointments that
usually beset US.
We make pitiable Jobs of our work
but we stubbornly refuse to change
our methods even though they bring
US nothing but regret and pain.
And generally we rest fairly con-
tent with our failures, for we keep
multiplying them and counting their
company when we know in our hearts
that we should pursue contrary
course
We wish TO be assured OF brighter
days. but in our blind eagerness 10
fnd them. we deliberately turn our
backs upon the paths that take TO
tlic hiIls and ,choose the rougher
roads that cdrTy-us downeto the dark
valleys
five would not waste our years
in ignorance. We must INT our eyes
up TO the light of Wisdom. place our
hands confidently in her always friend
" palm and be content to be guided
by her kindly counsel and iIluminst-
Ing smile. for there is no other way
by which We can hope TO overcome
impeding obstacles and reach the
heights.

FRANCES

EREEDoM is the significance of
Frances, the name which is used
interchangeable with only one letters
difference as Il masculine and feminine
proper name. II Is derived from the
Teutonie fret" but. curiously enough,
made its first appearance in near
approach 10 its present form in Italy.
where the son of an Italian merchant
became so fluent rs q French scholar
that the baptismal name of Giovanni
was lost TO sight and he went by the
term I'll francesca" (The Frenchman)
II was this same youth who later was
canoni2ed and founded the order of
the FranceScan brotherhood.
The first feminine form of the name
WAS the title OF the unhappy lady
whose doom was so exquisitely told
by Dante in his romance of "Paolo
and Francesca" which is one OF the
great love stories OF literature. San
Francesca di RGina was devoui
housewife of great popularity in Italy
and in 1900 there was a FRANCHISE of
fame at Cambria.
Frances ceme into being through
Mary Tudor, who. in honor of Fran.
co.'s |. king Of France. and in memory
OF her own brief rule on the throne of
France, christene1 her first child
Frances. She was the Lady Frances
Brandon who established the name in
the Tudor court and made II forever
popular in England.
francis and Frances were both used
as feminine names without distinction
in those days and Frank was the di.
sllnutive bestowed exclusively on Eng.
fish maids. The wife of the duke 81
Richmond was so called and HISTORY
recalls that the duke would subdue her
naughty pride on occasion by saving

THE GREATEST SPORT IN
THE WORLD
BY Hugh Russell Fraser.

The Creates sport in the world is
called Getting Away From Yourself.
All you have TO do is 10 go card-play-
ing. dancing sightseeing. wonder
hunting-in facts ANYTHING and any
way to get away from yourself And
the farther you get away from your
self the better player you are II is
the most popular sport in the world
and the most futile
II is the greatest of illusions. 1t is
false because it assumes that happi-
ness Is something that ii is not 1t
implies that ii is without, not within
that il is something to be sought af-
ter, not devcloped; that it is in to-
morrow. not today. in hundred diff
fercnt things but not the nearest
1t is the capital folly OF mankind
because 1t is the most Elusive II
would substitute the seeking after
happiness for the possession OF hap
pincss.
The Kingdom of Happiness is like
the Kingdom OF God. 1t is within
you. 1t is not in fortunate circum
stances. These may help it but they
cannot create it. They may increase
it but they do not determine it, For
all life and the enjoyment of life
! comes spontaneously - from within
not withouts To seek it elsewhere be-
| comes nothing but sheer folly.
The poor man believes he is UNI
happy because he is poor But that
is only part OF his trouble. His real
cause lies deeper, II Is in hlblsclf,
not his circumstances. Give him
riches and he Would. GDtl cause to be
miserable. lie viii enjoy the spend
ing of money but he cannot spend all
tho time. lie will have on bis own
hands much of his time. Then H.
will be miserable. lie will have
nothing TO do but get acquainted with
himself, but Instead OF doing this he
will do everything in his power TO
avoid himself. His troublc is one OF
! failure OF get acquainted with him
self
Ills experience is that OF millions
OF others. lie has sought happiness
where happiness is not. In pursuing
it he has got farther away from IT,
He has become proficient in the game
of Getting Away From himself But
he cannot get away from himself. In
trying to do so he only discovers its
futility.
II is not necessary TO so or alone
and brood over your troubles. The
obiec; of getting acquainted with
yourself is self-controI, which comes
only by sclf-observation.
Il is not new art. II was known
before psychology and the printing
press were ever heard OF II was ac-
auired by millions OF thinking people
who used their thinking to help them
selves.
Happiness is unlike everything else
in the world. But in one sense it is
like everything else: it is the out
growth of a little thinking. Its per-
manent acquisition is the reward of
Getting Acquainted With Yourself.
