RiBEliT A-.; FLA*.*!,-4 T» (S*V TME licfCiU ~o SEE lew KC r.OOKS ACTE*; SC-'Nj A»’<VY E• <WnvC-H j How I Teach My Family Tidiness. ■ Mrs. E. L. A., in The Progressive f Farmer. | lam a farmer’s wife with nine in 1 family. I have six boys from four to twenty-one, and one little girl nine years old. When not in school the boys ore busy in the field. They do he'p me with the washing, milking and dishes, but still they would leave clothing and other tilings scattered ove rthe floor. I' just could not do the work for a family of nine and keep things looking as nice as they should if I had to pick up after them all the time. So I thought of a plan. When my li’tle ones next left their things scattered and could not find them when they wanted to go some place, I just let them stay home. So they have learned to keep their things in place. The larger children like to hnve company. When friends were expected I left their rooms just as I found them. They are large imought to feel em barrassed, so hnve learned to be tidy. Now I shall tell you about my hus band. He likes to have things looking , nice but if we are going to ebureh or any place he a'ways is afraid of being late. When I had all the kitchen to clean up, milk to put away, house to put in order, myself and the children to dress, it was always, "Can’t you hurry a little? We shall be late." For you see the boys kad tended the outside things and 'he hud shaved and dressed leaving his clothes in the middle of the floor just art he stepped out of them. One Sunday after church was over he invited the minister and his wife home to dinne. This time I stepped back to let my husband open the door and let the company go in first. Can you imagine bow my huyband felt when they had to step over his clothes to get in? Well, that cured him of untidiness. Float and Flagg’s Cotton Letter. New York. June 20.—The steady tone of the market is its most impres sive feature and suggests large possi bilities if condition reports fior ithe month fati to record 'the improvement expected based on private advices. At least three to five points is thought cer tain with some hopeful of even more. To what extent such a possibility has been discounted can hardly be estimated but no doubt something has been done in that direction by selling for both ac counts with the action of the market suggestive of an extended and not very confident short interest- Figures for the week were moderately bullish but not sufficiently so to bring in any broad demand- There is still plenty of room for surprises in connection with the crop and with small stocks of raw material and cheap money giving color to predictions of an important expan sion in business sellers are not j inclined to be aggressive though it is thought that more disposition toward that will be noted next week if private condition reports equal bearish hopes and at present is in a state of flux and flow and the process of crystaliza tion can. hardly be said to have started. ' It will need, however, something dis tinctly better than average conditions for the balance of the season if the crop is to reach 11,000,000 and that amount would hnrdly constitute any serious burden on prices.

Our Experience in Adopting Children. E. P- S., in Tlie Progressive Farmer. I say "our” experience instead of "my, ’ as I believed most women are born with ’hearts filled with mother love; butt it is a good and noble ,man who will toil to support outside chil dren. My husband does that and show ers them with a father's trrue love. Our own little bo.v was four years old, selfish and very lonely. My husband consented to adopt a child, a blue eyed boy about 21 months old, so emaciated that he Staggered when he walked and with a severe case of brornchitis. I was a registered nurse before my mnrringe. so with expert care and plenty of good Jersey milk that boy is above normal j weight today. I When he was four years old, I went , baby hunting again and returned with i another blue eyed boy. \fith chronic bronchitis, internal hemorrhoids and an | umbilical hernia. He was about three l | and one-half months old. With the same j , treatment asthe first one, he is today a J perfect child, above normal weight and ( I the finest little rascal in the state. J Our three children receive exactly the ( same treatment, and love from us. They ( | ar fuly happy, lovable children, worth J their weight in gold because they have ( brought sunshine to our souls. ( I plead vvith all parents of only chil- j dren to open their doors and hearts to ( t'he unfortunate babes. Environment i and home training count for more than J all else. Last but not least, open your ( Bibles and read Matthew 25, verses 40 < and 45. Australia is the world’s largest pro- J ducer of wool.
