The Fordson will run your threshing machine —and at the most opportune time for you. It will operate the milking machines, saw your wood, fill your silo, pump the water, and take care of every kind of belt work— And don’t forget—it will plow six to eight acres in a ten hour day, handling two plows with ease. Thus the Fordson is the ideal year-round trac tor. It will pay for its fall and winter, keep in many ways. There’s a big story to tell you about the Ford- Bon—ancf a true one—come in and get the facts. Or, if you prefer, telephone or drop us a card and we will bring them to you. Brevard Motor Co. C.

Mr. Bowser drew a manuscript from his pocket and read for awhile. When he had finiimed reading, he said: “Ml'S. Bowser, I ha\e somfetliing here with which ypu will agree. I want a »nntus\l understanding.” "I think We can come to one,” plied Mrs. Bowser. “That Is good of you, as a beginning. You do not always agree with me, but I think you will In this case. It will strike you as it struck me, as some* thing for our great benefit, tiet me tell you that this house has been run In n slam-bang way In the last three years.” “I am aware of that,” was Che an swer. “There has been no head to the house,*’ continued Mr. Bowser. “Some times I have run it and sometimes you have, and sometimes the cook or the "cat. We have probably lost thousands of dollars by not having a program or a set of rules to guide us. I have com piled here a set of rules. I have given them deep thought, but I think I have them Just right, now.” * “That is what we have long needed,” acquiesced Mrs. Bowser. “We have slowly been tumbling over each other. "The cat has sometimes been In her place and sometimes not. The cook has sometimes been in her place and sometimes not. The cook has sometimes bosseil the whole tiling, and sometimes she has let everything go. If you have solved the problem 1 shall be very glad to know It.” “Well, here are the rules,” said Mr. Bowser, after a long look at her to see If she was sincere. ’ —W« get up at seven o’clock I a, ’r%at isi, you do, as you must see ■ abo«t brealvfast.

Mrs. Bowser made no move to take the paper and sign it, but after a mo ment she said: “We will wait a miniiie or two, Mr. Bowser. It may surprise you to know that I have been thinking of this very thing. You are right in saying that our house hasn’t been run as it should be. In the last few days I have also been preparing certain rules. I have com mitted them to memory and can give them to you without a manuscript. Please listen to them. “One.—Mr. Bowser gets up when I do in the morning, or he gets his hair pulled.
