I want to set out about thirty

you recommend?
Among the varieties of peaches
which should be planted in the small

lowing:
The Greensboro, which Is also call
ed the Early Red June. This is a
large. round, creamy colored peach
of attractive appearance, but does
not ripen very evenly. A good mid.
season peach IS the Carman. The
flesh is white, tinted with red next
to the pit. 1t has a fine flavor. The
Hiley, sometimes called the Early
Belle and Hiley Belle, is a, smooth,
whitish peach. The tree is a vigor.
Gus grower. 1t is a popular tree in
this state. The Belle, or Georgia
Belle, is another fine peach. 1t is
the parent of the Hiley. The tree
is rather hardy, and the color and
quality of the peach make it a IA
vorite. The Elberta, Of course, is
a good late season peach. 1t makes
a wonderfully good appearance, and
is a fine shipper. 1t is very cos
mopolitan variety as we'll, and sue
ceeds well in all sections OF the

early variety of peach. 1t might pay

My advice to a girl In this sttua-
tion-and there are millions of her
lis to forget men. Give up the
struggle to attract them, Quit try"
ing to catch one Can the romance
stuff. Throw all thoughts Of mar
riage into the discard. Just accept
the fact that nature did not pat you
into the vamp class. and play your
game of life from that angle.
This counsel will be q bitter pill
for the girl to swallow, but she will
find that it Is good for what ails her,
and that it Will work a speedy and
permanent cure for most of her trou-
bles. Why certain women are a
magnet that draws every man they
meet to them, and why there are
other women, just as good-looking,
just as charming in every way, that
nothing in trousers ever goes near
except upon compulsion, Is one of
the mysteries that nobody has ever
solved. Nor has any one been able
to suggest a remedy for this state
Of affairs.
Science has measured the distance
to the sun, bat it has never yet been
able to tell a girl how to tempt the
boy next door in to see her. when
he doesn't want to come. 1t has
torn its secrets from the earth, bur
it can not find out what quality il
is in woman that lures man. 1t has
invented chemicals that work magic
in the physical world, but it has
never discovered q reliable love
philter.
So that's that. And If it Is wise
girl who has the courage to look
herself in the face, see whether she
has that come-hither look in her eye.
and if she hasn't. to recognize the
fact, and devote herself to a more
promising occupation than chasing
men, who always make their get.
away in the end, unless they desire
to be caught.
So I would urge the girl who is
not popular with men to stop vast
ing her time and her energies m
the vain attempt to decoy them into
noticing her, and to put all of that
lost motion and force into her work,
where she will get better results.
Believe me, If the girl who does
not attract men was as anxious to
sell herself to her job as she is to sell
herself socially, she would not have

How to Make Pine
Cough Syrup at Home
Has no equal for prompt results.
Takes but a moment to prepare,
and saves you about 81.
"s"."."s"s"s-..s.s.


Pine is used in nearly all prescrip-
tons and remedies for coughs. The
reason is that pine contains several
elements that have remarkable
effect in soothing and healing the
membranes of the throat and chest.
Pine cough syrups are combinations
of pine and syrup The Syrup" part
is usually plain sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy, put 21s ounces
of Pinex in pint bottle, and fill p~
with home made sugar syrup. or
you can use clarified molasses, honey,
or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup.
Either way, you make a full pint
more than you can buy ready-made
for three times the money. Ia is
pure, good and tastes very pleasant.
You can feel this take hold of
cough or cold in way that means
business. The cough may be dry,
hoarse and tight, or may be persist
emily loose from the formation of
phlegm. The cause. is the same-in-
fiamed membranes and this Pinex
and Syrup combination will stop it
usually in "a hours or less. Splen-
did, too, for bronchial asthma, hoarse-
ness, or any ordinary throat ailment.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, and is famous the world over
for it's prompt effect upon coughs.
Beware of substitutes. Ask your
druggist for "21% ounces of Pinex"
with directions, and don't accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso-
lutte satisfaction or money refunded.

to complain long of holding a small
position. She would be a highly paid
private secretary, or buyer, or de-
partment manager.
If the girl who does not attract
men studied her employers moods
ard lenses as earnestly as she does
those Of some little jellybean boy.
and il she was es anxious to please
her emupioyer as she is to please the
jazzhoppers and cake caters of her
acquaintance, she would find her
self one Of the valued employees
who are never afraid OF losing their
positions, and who is always spoken
Of as "our Miss So-and,So."
If the girl who does not attract
men would put -hundredth part
Of the intensive study that she gives
to the technique Of the popular grill
on trying to flrd our about the goods
she handles, and the details Of the
business she is employed in, she
would have employers fighting over
her.
In a word, If the girl who isn't
popular with men would concen-
trate her thoughts, her interests,
and her ambitions, on getting along
in the occupation she has chosen,
instead Of wasting her time and en-
ergies in fruitless attempt to
charm men, she would be a success
instead Of a failure She would be
happy instead Of miserable.
For as it Is now she falls between
the stools. She is a poor makeshift
in her job who gets nowhere. And
she is a siren without a song to at
tract men who fails to arrive at the
altar.
And take II from me, girls, the
woman who espouses career
doesn't get the worst husband there
is. The woman who puts her heart
into her work has a vital interest
that never fails, and that never
grows stale. There is something
new and exciting happening in it ev-
cry hour. The woman who is never
dull Is the woman who is busy.
Climbing up the ladder is the most
eXhilarat!ng sport in the world, and
there is tie peace that passes all
understanding in possessing your
own Well-lined pocketbook.
Furthermore, there is this com.
fort to be given the girl who quits
trying to attract men, and gets busy
with her job. Men are contrary
creatures. Pursue them, and they
flee from you. Lay traps and they
walk wide of them. But let them
alone, indicate that you are indif-
ferent to them, that you are con-
cerned with your own affairs in
which they have no part, let them
realize that you can get on quite
we'll without them, and it piques
their interest. They come fIocking
around of their own accord to see
what manner Of woman you are.
Also the girl who makes some
thing Of herself, and who rises high
in her profession is thrown with the
men at the top, the men Of brains
and they are often attracted to her
while the silly little boys WITH whom
she used to play about with were
not.
So say again to the girls who are
not attractive to men, stop wasting
your time in the useless attempt o
vamp men. Put your heart and your
soul in your job. Work is the conso.
lation prize God gives us when we
miss getting the thing we wanted
most.

Danny's Astonishing Surprise
Appearance so oft deceive
Be not too ready to believe.
Old Mother Nature,

De not 100 ready 10 DelleVe.
Old Mother Nature,
Danny Meadow Mouse never had
heard of a snake with bill. But
if this wasn't just what he was
looking at, then Danny could no
longer trust his eyes. To Danny
any snake was bad enough, but
somehow one with a bill seemed
worse. This Sunny South certainly
was land Of strange people.
Danny wished the leaves Of that
tree were not so thick. He wanted
to see the whole Of this snake with
O. bill. He wanted to see if it was
as big as Mr.. Gopher Snake who
had so badly frightened him a few
| days before. But the leaves were
in the way, and all Danny could
see were the head, neck and what
he thought was part of the body.
Danny waited and waited and
waited right where he was. He
didn't wait because he wanted to
wait. Oh my, no; No indeed! He
waited because he didn't dare do
anything else. He didn't dare move.
At last this long wait was brought
to an end very suddenly. There
was a movement behind the leaves
which hid the body of the snake
with a bill. The head and neck
disappeared. There was a splash in
the water.
He must be a water snake"
thought Danny, and peeped out over
the water. Nothing was to be
seen. The snake with a bill had
disappeared. He must be under
water.
Now was Danny's chance to get
away from here. He knew it. He
knew that Che thing for him to do
was to take to his short legs, But
curiosity was too much for him. He
was as curious as ever was Peter
| Rabbit. SO instead of running away,
he crept a little nearer to the edge
of the bank that he might see bet
| ter.
For few minutes he saw moth
| ing but the smooth water of the
river, and Grandpa Pelican sitting
on his favorite stump. Then some
distance out from the shore sudden
ly appeared that same head and
neck which had so frightened him
at first.
'cHe is snakel And he has a
bill y gasped Danny to himself.
And oh dear, he is coming straight
over herei"
Danny turned around. He took
one more frightened look behind
him. Then he stopped. Yes, sir,
he stopped. 81 never"' exclaimed
Danny. 81 never did" He rubbed
his eye1@and looked again. He
blinked. He blinked several times.
| No, sir, I never did," he exclaimed
again.
| There was no snake out there in
the water, but there was a bird, a
big black bird with silvery spots on
his back, and a long, slim neck and
snake-like head, with a long, slim,

Where Does Visit End
And Board Bill Begin?
Jury Solves Question

AUGUSTA, Ga, Jan. 26.-When
your kinsfolk come to see you for a
spell, when does the visit end and
the time to ray board begin?
This was the question put to a
jury Of twelve good men and true
by Judge A. L. Franklin in superior
court here yesterday. The Jury.
after wrestling with the problem, re-
turned verdict for the plaintiff.
But that is getting ahead of the
story.
The case was that of Mrs. ]. s.
Young VS.. Frank Paul, claiming $50
due as board bill for Paul and his
wife. Mrs. Paul and Mrs. Young
are sisters.
1t appears from the evidence that
Mrs. Paul went to visit Mrs. Young
about year ago, Mrs. Young hav-
irg q boarding house at that time.
Mrs. Ioung, so it was testified was
in poor health and not WORKING.
After Mrs. Paul arrived at the
4oungs for a visit, she was followed
by Mr. Paul, who also was not
working at the time, according to
the testimony. Mr.. and Mrs. Paul.
1t seems, remained at the Young
home for six weeks.
After the Pauls left, and Mr.. Paul
had gone to work. Mr.. Young sought
to collect $50 board from the Pauls
by means OF garnisheeing Mr.. Paups
wages. From these proceedings the
case took its natural course into
superior court.
While the jury carefully bore In
mind the admonition Of the court
iii which they were told that they
must decide when a visit ends and
board begins. yet they returned a
verdict OF SIS on the ground that
Mr.. Paul should be required 20 nay
board for the time he spent AT the
Young home. whereas Mrs. Paul
could be regarded SIS visitor,
