A fear Filled With Work, Pleasure and Good Health. I have been a farmer's wife for iust a little over a year, and that time has been lilted with more pleasure, more work and better health than had ever fallen to my lot. When we first came to live on our little farm, sj many friend said. "Oh. it's pleasant now. but the new will soon wear olf, then you'll long for town again." I think 1 have experienced about everything since we've been here, and I'm still as much in love with the work and life as 1 ever was. Never have I been so busy a woman, some times almost too weary at nighti to make the effort to go to bed. but I found that I fell instantly to sleep, sleep like a log till morning, and woke refreshed and ready for another day. But let me say this. I certainly do not believe in all work, to the exclusion of the recreation and pleasure to which the farm ers' wife is entitled, and which she should demand. I know there are some women who protest that they never have a spare moment, but I can con ceive of no situation in which the house-mother could be so hampered with household cares as not to tind a few moments of leisure for her own spiritual and mental strenthening. 1 have even heard some women say. "1 never have time to read." Tnink of that ! It is certainly mistaken zeal which causes any woman t«» feed her body so that she may serve her household, and yet starve her sou! Much has l>een written and said of the hard lot of farmers' wives, but I do think a great deal of it is their own fault. 1 have no patience with one who talks always of her hard lot, and who, it seems, almost boasts of it, and puts herself up as a martyr. Housework and farm life can become very irksome and monotonous, if one shuts one's eyes to all the beauties of nature - birds, Mowers, water and rocLs, and all the dear homely ihiißS that make »od's green earth. My husband and 1 never take a walk thf>t we do not find in pasture or field or wood some quaint or interesting rock fonna- MR. LEWIS A.

Its tonic ingredients tone up the system, and thus Invigorate the stomach's functions to normal activ ity. Mr. Riffle's experience is especially Interesting at this time of the year be cause it shows the close relationship there is between a nervous breakdown and a neglected cold. Pe-ru-na should be kept In the home at all times, that a cold upon its first appearance may be treated promptly j and successfully. This often saves ! money and time, and what is more Important, a great deal of vitality, j Mr. Riffle, of 758 Gautenbeln Ave., j Portland, Ore., writes: "I have found i Pe-ru-na a most remarkable medi cine for bulldinK up the system and for curing coughs and colds. •«*••• "I took it for four weeks a few months ago when I wa3 all run down, nervous and debilitated, anfl it quickly, restored my health. • ■ ■ - »-* "I always keep it on haru?, as ft few doses will cure a cold if taken lu time."

Oear farmer women, let us keep our ideals ! No doubt every one of you when you went to rule as queen over your little household dreamed of a pretty home, with dowers and vinos about the doorway, and peace and contentment over all. if these things seem long in com- j ing, don't grow faint-hearted, but do all you can, and keep hope fresh in your heart. Make your days so full of sunshine, love, and life, that when the evening shadows fall you can say, with that wise philosopher. David Grayson. "This has been j a day of pleasant bread." Mrs. W. B. Stack, in Progressive Farmer. 1 To Cure a Dog ot Socking Eggs. Replies to the recent inquiry as to how to break a puppy from 1 sucking eggs are numerous We give some of them herewith Mr F Pollard. Greenville.! 1 N C., says: "1 can give an unfailing cure >et a No. 2 round steel trap' with jaws large enough so that I when it snaps, its jaws will l pass over the egg and not break it Make a little net and place over the egg and fasten the egg| to the trigger. Now set the, trap and cover alt but the egg | When the dog sees the egg and grabs it up the trap will snap his nose, and he will not try it more than once or twice before he will not venture to piace his! nose on an egg again. I have tried this several times and nevtr knew it to fail." Most remedies offered consist j, in making the dog sick on tn j egg For this purpose, Mr. A. j C tireen, Waleigh, N. C., says! to feed bad eggs until the dog gets sick. Mr AB >verton, | Oxford, N. C., recommends a small quantity of cream of tartar ' in an egg W. .1. Harrington. «'r., Cameron, N. C., says to make a small hole in an egg. ' place a finger over it, shake tne. s tgg until white and yolk are i" mixed, put in half a teaspoonful 1 of spirits of turpentine, and give ' it to the dog R L. Know. I Plant City, Fla., cured a puppy' 1 of the habit by giving her five 1 cents worth of calomel in a fresh egg- The reader has his choice of | all these remedies.—Progressive j Farmer.

Look at the illustration of our New Fox Visible Typewriter, shown above, and compare it with anv other typewriter you have ever seen or used. Here is a really VISIBLE typewriter —note that the printing point is on top in plain sight, and that the type bars rise from where they are lying and strike the platen in full view of the operator, and in a direct line of vision, and* that all of what you have written remains in full sight until the paper is removed from the typewriter. Compare this with those old style typewriters. that some tirms are still advertising as visibles, but on which the printing point is beneath the typebars, and you have to look down into them—or between them—to see what you have written. Touch a key in the keyboard and you change the color of your writing instantly from black, blue, or purple to red. Press the Tabulator Key at the left tin front) for paragraphing, writing the compli mentary closing, etc.: also for all kinds of billing. At the right (in front l is our Back Space Key. This moves the carriage backward for making corrections, or putting in punctuation. This key also enables the operator to erase a word of three letters and write one of four in its place. Press the Stencil Key shown at the left (front) for making stencils from which thousands of duplicate letters can he made. Four rows of keys reduce the shifting one-third. The right Shift Key locks automatically for writing in all caps. A positive automatic Line Lick prevents you from writing beyond a predetermined line. The ribbon travels in a "zig-zag" line not straight across from spool to spool as on others—thus using all of the ribbon and making it last three or four times as long as on other typewriters. The ribbon automatically ro-winds itself from one spool to the other without any attention from the o|«rator. Carriages are interchangeable, and run on ball bearing tracks. Platens are re movable, so that both a hard and soft platen can be used on the same typewi iter. Extremely light touch, "No falling leaf is lighter than the touch of the Fox Typewriter." Choice of Elite. Pica, Condensed Roman, Medium Roman, or Italic Type we carry more than three thousand special type in stock, of our own mannfacture, and can furnish keyboards for any language. The Fox has an easy, almost noiseless action, is very durable, and is sent com plete with cleaning outfit and metal cover with hard wood base. This Is the Fox. the ty|»ewrlter we manufacture—this Is the typewriter that we will send to ativ one anywhere in the F nlted States on Free Trial, all express charues fully paid—no "red tape"—no delay— no'obligation to buy. If purchased after trial you can pay a little down—whatever you can spare— Htul the balance In small monthly payments.
