Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

Y am 50 tired" thought Mrs. Adams as she started to get lunch T suppose shall have to begin taking my ionic again. as did last winter. The minute summer is over, I get this weary feeling"
 It had been rainy and cold for several days. Mrs. Adams spirits were at low ebb. "Shut up here in the house all day by myself, I get SO nervous and lonely could cry" was her next mental corn- ment. Nothing but work and the family so wrapped Up in their own affairs they never give me c thought. Even John comes home and won't talk to me. He gets his paper and that's the end Of him. He doesn't care how I feel or what I do"
 Just then she heard her next door neighbor calling. Mrs. Adams, are you there7" She opened the kitchen door and, tak- ing her sweater of the nail, went out. "Ycs, Mrs. Miller, here I am"
 T wanted to show you this egg" Mrs. Miller passed c bowl over the dividing fence, and Mrs. Adams looked in. "one cgg?" she gasped. It had three yolks.
 They talked awhile as women will. The cgg grew into Johnny'S rash. the new soap powder and old Mrs. Simmons death; Johns arthritiS and Mrs. Miiicr's winter coat
 The air was fresh and cool, and when Mrs. Adams went in to set the table she was humming. She no longer felt tired,
 Tt does me good to talk to someone" she thought. T don't believe I shall start my tonic to- day. I even feel hungry now"
 Are you Mrs. Adams, dear mother? Do you have your blue, weak days when you feel all done in2 If SO, maybe 6 word here will show you what your discouraged little housewife did not know.
 With all the windows down, she was starved for fresh air. It was oxygen she needed to brace her. Jealous of every scrap of heat, she kept out the inflow of pure air. Her house had an old fash toned heating system that gave little renewal of oxygen. More- over, although 1t was damp out- side, the house air was dry and scorched.
 This was not all. At eleven thirty, she had used up the en- ergy generated by her early breakfast. All morning she had been using it up in exercise. Per- haps she had travelled a mile or more, as the average housewife goes from three to five miles a day over floors, and up and down stairs. Had she eaten a lump or two of sugar, or a little pure candy or sweet chocolate at ten o'clock, or taken a sweetened drink of tea or fruit punch, she would have felt better.
 Third, she did need company, although in the summer, with more air and more nipbling, she would not have minded loneli- ness.
 ihe young mother who has to 50 out with the baby is doing her. self e greater favor than she real- lzes. She is getting air, changing her vision, and seeing things and people. On bad days, she should bundle up and walk the porch or

well as its beauty. It is in a set
ting of 212 acres Of natural wood
land and contains a large living
room 18x24 with a real wood-burn-
ing fireplace, three bedrooms and
kitchen. While there are no con.
veniences it would be an easy task
to remedy that. If interested in
this house I will be glad to furnish

1900 BLOCK BURKE ST. S. E.
($7,450 Brick Homes:
Unquestionably this is a real
value, but don't take my word for
it, go out and investigate yourself
The builder had in mind the av'
erage family that wants to live
within their income and still at
the same time plan for the future.
This home cannot be duplicated
at the price it is offered, as the
building materials have increased
in cost considerably since it was
started. It has six well-sized rooms
and sleeping porch (three of the
rooms being bedroomS). You will
find the two baths have the latest
type fixtures and that they are
beautifully finished. In the base
ment, besides automatic heat,
there is a finished recreation
room that will save wear and tear
on the upstairs living room. Moth,
ing that will aid in the art of per
feet living has been forgotten, so
take a tip from me and visit the
sample house that is now open for
inspection. $500 down and $62.5O

WOODBRIDGE GARDENS
(41OO Block 10Th st. N. E.):
They call this the garden spot
Of the Northeast and rightfully,
too. for this house is built on a
beautiful knoll with natural wood
land as a background. The in
terror is startling in it's arrange
ment and beauty, for the fine hand
OF an artist is seen throughout.
Six good-sized rooms and two
baths make up the floor plan, with
every room individually decorated.
The best of materials have been
used and you will find all the in
novationS Of today there con-
cealed radiators, electric kitchen,

point, as we'll as an investment, l
feel very secure in offering it to
you for consideration.
