Whv you've more right here to start
on than we had three years ago ,
Now, I want to tell you a little fairy
storv founded on facts : , You listen to
something that- has occurred .today
and HI guarantee that your mouth
will water. i i"
This morning we sat down to a
breakfast of . country-cured, : ham,
smoking fried steak, poached eggs,
beautiful strained ' and comb, honey,
golden butter, creamy sweet milk,
fried potatoes, sweet and Insh,,home
made sorghum, three kinds, of jelly,
four kinds of preserves, yes, and pork
sausage for Jimmy who likes them
better than ham or steak, and as none
of us use coffee, the flaky biscuits
. and hot corn cakes' completed' a
home-grown" breakfast, except i" the
salt, sugar, and soda,' and ' they were
paid for with extra butter,' milk, eggs
and honey.

For dinner we had vegetable soup
containing potatoes, cabbage, canned
beans, tomatoes, okra and onions, all
"grown at home even to' the beef bone,
for father kills a beef every time we
need one though he -has a beef ' club
started now. We had creamed pota
toes, baked sweet potatoes with candy
oozing out, beef roast,-, cold boiled
ham, hominy made at home, a quick
cake to eat with -canned peaches and
whipped cream. Gorn bread arid hot
rolls completed the meal and there
wasn't a thing bought for dinner ex
cept the sugar, salt, soda and baking
powder in the cake,;:j''j.,-;'v.'-' ;-."
For supper we : had" a bountiful
amount left cold from; dinner, but 'we
made some mush like grandmother
used to make, and ate creamy sweet
milk with it. 7 ':

and the beauty and individuality of every huhian-voice all absolutely true
to-life. : " ' r , :. -; ; , '.
Such fidelity of tone was unknown , before-the advent of the Victrolathe v?
cabinet style talking-machine; and this pure and life-like - tone Is exclusively a
-Victrola feature. : l. " . . ; .
iWhy exclusive with the Victrola?" , - ;
Because' pf the patented Victrola features, which have been
perfected after years of study and experiment: v :
" "Goose-neck? sound-box tube the flexible metal connection between the sound-, '
Jbox and tapering tone arm, which enables the Victor Needle to follow the record
. grooves with unerring accuracy. : ' . .
Concealed sounding-boards and amplifying compartment of woodprovide the
: very limit of area of vibrating surface and sound amplifying compartment, so abso
lutely essenuai to an exact ana pure rone reproaucuon. v-;
A . f Modifvinflf doors may be opened wide thereby Eivincr the tone in its
" fullest volume; or; doors may be set at any degree graduating the volume y.
.'i of tone to exactly suit-every, requirement, vtldsed tight the volume" is?
reduced to the minimum and when hot in use the interior is fully protected, v
v Victor system of changeable needles a perfect reproduction is possi
. ble only with a perfect point therefore a new needle for each record! is
t the only positive assurance of a perfect point. You also have your choice
i v of full tone, half tone or further modification with the fibre needle. . .
" ' It Js the perfection of every part," and its perfect combination
with all other parts, that gives the Victrola its superior tone-Hhat
makes the Victrola the greatest of all musical instruments.
There are Victrolas in great variety from $15 to $200 and any Victor dealer
will gladly demonstrate them and play any music you wish to hear. Write to us

A Mother Finds That Care in Feeding
- Makes Healthy, Happy Children
A S WE all grew up at once and I
f- never had the care of smaller
'children, I found it quite a task to.,
keep my children healthy and follow
the advice of so many who wished to
advise. But I have had quite a bit of V
experience now and haye sought good
authority. . I will give a few hints of .
how I have succeeded. ; - ;
Since we have been . in Texas and
have used cistern water we have had
the cistern cleaned out thoroughly in
the fall . so as to catch the winter
rains. The houses have been screen
ed against flies and mosquitoes. Pure
water and screened houses save many .
ddctor bills and heartaches.:' ;
- I have ; seen many mothers hand-'

meat to their little ones between

healthful, so mine eat their food at
the table. As we are small -meat eat

tables, chicken, eggs, milk and but

wholesome dishes for all the family.
I : teach my children to thoroughly
masticate their food, and practice
standing erect and deep breathing so
as to inhale fresh air into their lungs.
These simple rules I follow. My
