Commandments That
Are Worth Observing

Honor your parents by having q
thorough physical examination every
birthday; for an ounce Of prevention
is worth a ton Of cure.
Honor your friends by taking q
daily bath; for cleanliness Is a part
Of godliness.
Honor your family by having your
life insured; for life insurance guar
antees the cooperation Of the insurer
in the prolongation Of tho life Of the
insured.
Honor your stomach BY having your
teeth examined by a dentist at regu-
lar intervals for bad teeth are an
abomination to the system.
Honor~your digestion by being care
full Of your diet; for many a man digs
his grave with his teeth.
Honor your lungs by breathing fresh
air; for ventilation Is 4 means Of
grace.
Honor your nerves by taking plenty
of rest In sleep.
Honor your fellows by obeying the
law; for 1t is a mark Of good citizen
ship to obey a law whether one likes
1t or not.

Crenona Old City of
Loneliness and Music

Lombardy, where the silver pOplars
grow and music is in the air &.
and the yellow sunlight falls upon you
in Lombardy, tabled and sung by a
thousand praising tongues - there
brooded and hummed, worked and
dreamed, busy thriving town four
centuries ago-the town of violins. Its
name was Cremona, and the heart Of
music was the heart of the world to
the men who worked there. :.
On one side was the River Oglio, on
another the AIDA on the south the Pc
swept by, blue-purple under the warm
sky, running down, down, down to
where the Adriatic waited for it. On
the other side of the Pc we're Parma
and Placenza, dreaming the year
away; one could cross over by a
bridge If one liked.
1t was very old, this town Of violins,
and its name from the Greek,
meant "Alone upon a rock"
A very pretty, happy Italian city it
was, with g. golden light splashed
upon roof and street, the music
of childrens voices, and magical
southern skies filtering through :.
This from the year 1920 was the
center Of violin making, the town Of
violins-Alice Chaplin in "The Heart
Of Music"

exciting experience with large
hawk one day recently. While at
work in his barn, he heard an cutlery
among the fowl, ana on going out
saw large hawk which had just
killed a hen in the door yard. Mr..
Richardson rushed at the hawk, and
struck with a hammer he held
in his hand. The hawk rose and
flew over the buildings, but merely
circling, returned to his prey. This
time Mr. Richardson seized a pitch
fork, the nearest available weapon
and again charged the bird, breaking
the fork-handle in three pieces, but
not killing the hawk. Leaving his
daughter to guard the prey, he went
to a neighbor's for a gun, while the
bird sat on fence and waited.
Soon after he returned, the bird came
back to it's interrupted feast, and was
killed 1t measured three feet and
