The Cook Stove.
The cook stove is a horrible ex
ample of man's inhumanity to
woman. Sometimes, when placed
in the hands of a young bride who
learned everything at college ex
cept how to hash potatoes, it be
comes an object lesson of woman’s
inhumanity to man. The world is
full of bilious husbands who married
some prize winner in the Latin
course and woke up later to find
that while she could pin the
shoulders of a Creek word to the
mat three times out of five, she
didn't know whether a cook stove
could be started from the seat or
had to be cranked with a half
hitch.
in a newly established home
which is filled with love and install
ment furniture, the cook stove is
used for the first few years as a
domestic science experiment
station. As nearly all cook stoves
are made of sheet iron, they do
not feel these experiments nearly
as much as the rest of the family.
If there were more> sheet iron
stomachs in existence there would
be fewer round trip tickets sold to
Reno, Nevada, with six month's
stop overs.
The cook stove is a simple affair,
and seldom requires any more care
than a six cylinder automobile. It
is so constructed that anyone can
start a fire by the simple expedient
of substituting gasoline for kero
sene.
As arule the cook stove has to
be fired up every morning and this
is a wifely duty which should be in
cluded in the marriage ritual along
with love, cherise and obey. Fail
ure to attend to this, on the part of
enraptured,and short-sighted bride
grooms often results in the mourn
ful spectacle of embittered hubbies
leaving a warm bed at an unearthly
hour and grouping around in the
sepulchral wood-shed after kindling
in their pajamas.
One of the principle functions of
the cook stove is to heat water for
the bath room. It discharges these
functions with great enthusiasm for
the members of the family who gets
tn the bath tub first, after which it
yields an icy product that would
build chilblains on an Antarctic ex
plorer. In summer the cook stove
does not heat water or anything
else which accounts for the in
creasing popularity of the bathing
beach and the four-minute sponge
off. — By Howard L. Rann.

HAD CORNER IN KISSES
BY EDNA MAHLER.
Jane knew she was the ugly duck
1 ling or the family, and although her
frocks were just as pretty and her
hair ribbons of the lovely tints worn
by her sisters, she did not command
admiration.
Jane's hair was wiry, and although
her mother "put it up" in curlers each
night, the refractory tresses refused
to form a ringleted halo about the
little face. Klsie and Ruth had lovely
i curls which never "ca*me out.” when it
rained; but Jane's did.
SlV* longed to be pink and white
and pretty, like her sisters, and each
morning rubbed herflittle brown face
so hard with the soapy cloth that fre
■ quently cold cream had to be applied
to soothe the burning skin. Jane's
feet and hands were large, and her
skirts and sleeves too short to be of
any use in concealing them. Realiz
ing all these facts, Jane w*as shy. She
hated parties and entertainments,
where she had to sit alone against the
wall and strive to look at ease, while
the other girls had the best kind of a
time.
When the Invitation came from
Ethel Simpson's mother, asking the
sisters to a “fancy dress” party New
Year's eve, Jane resolved to remain at
home. Her mother, not understanding
the reason for her little daughter’s
sudden dislike for parties, immediate
ly started the costumes, and a day be
fore the event the costumes were com
pleted and tried on.
Elsie looked like a Dresden china
"Ro-Peep,” and Ruth was an equally
dainty “Mary, Mary, quite contrary,"
but Jane did not need to ask of her
glass,
“Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Who's the fairest one of all?”
One glance told her the painful
truth. She was all wrong as “Little
Miss Muffet.” The fluffy w’hite cap
with its blue bow called for soft, gold
en curls. The lovely frock of rose
sprigged dimity needed a plump neck
and a rounded pair of arms and legs.
Why hadn't her mother provided a
“Red Riding Hood” cloak, which ex
tended to the floor? She could have
wrapped herself up in this like a worm
in its chrysalis.
Her mother was satisfied She saw
only the pretty costume, and knew
that her “work was good "
Poor Jane! That party hung like
the sword of Damocles over her head,
and she wished that the box of chneo
lates she ate that day would make her
so ill she could not. go.
The next morning her head ached,
and Jane grew more cheerful. Per
baps she would have a bilious attack,
and Doctor Myers would prescribe cal
omel. That, she knew, would make
her dreadfully ill. After breakfast and
a morning spent building a snow fort,
the headache had totally disappeared,
and with it Jane's hopes for a few’
days in bed.
Her mother proudly dressed each
one of her ducklings and sent them
off to the party with a kiss and a wish
for a “happy time.” Jane's rather
wistful countenance lingered with her
for a moment, and she wondered why
the child had become so strange
The Simpson home was aglow with
life, and as they entered the doorway
the sounds of merriment issuing from
the parlor made Jane long to hscape
She followed the ofherR upstairs to
shed their wraps, likp an automaton,
and when Mrs Simpson ushered them
into the room she sought the loneliest
corner and settled herself for the eve
ning.
Ethel Simpson suggested that they
play "Spin the Pan.” and selected
Elsie to number the boys while she
numbered the girls. The number fall
tng to lane's lot was four.
Then the fun began, Ethel, Ruth
and Elsie w-ere Hip most popular girls
at the party and proudly flounced up
for thpir kisses as the nice boys called
their numbers.
Jane's number had never been i
called and as each little girl jumped
from her cliair and rushed to catrh
the pan, she deploted Iter homeliness
Then Teddy Brooks, thp "red head'
boy in the crowd, called “Number
four." With a gasp Jane rushed far
the pan, and catching it, blushing!)'
held up her face for Teddy's kiss.
Then she spun the pan, and without
thought and weakly said "Number
nine.” Teddy, grinning with pleasure,
caught the pan, ant) when Janp was
•mated again shouted ‘'Number four.'
Jane realized he had not avoided
'ter number as the other hoys always
lid and gleefully railed 'Number
nine" again. Then Teddy yelled
four" and Jane followed with nine,
it'd thus they cornered the kisses tin
il wild protests front the other gnesls
nought Mrs. Simpson to the scene.
■ tid he*ng a tactful woman, she sug
;csted another game
Teddy escorted Jane to supper and
ts they sair “goodnight" a knowing
twinkle gleamed in each pair of pvps
When the "ugly duckling" awoke
he next morning the New Year was
greeted with a heart full of gladness,
for with its coming she had discov
'red a friend who considered her a
sw an.

ALFALFA
Alfalfa should be grown
on every farm. Make
a beginning-start now.
ALFALFA ENRICHES THE LAND
Besides Producing More Abundant
Harvests Alfalfa Adds Plant Food
to the Soil for the Use of
Other Crops.
Alfalfa enriches the soil. The roots
of the alfalfa plant penetrate 12 to
35 feet into the soil—far beyond the
reach of corn, wheat, oats and
other shallow rooting plants. In
this way potash, phosphorus and oth
er elements of plant food are drawn
up from below through the roots of
the alfalfa plant and stored in the
upper soil for the use of other crops.
The experiment set forth in the ac
companying chart was made in Can
ada, where it was found that alfalfa

sod yielded 61.5 bushels of wheat per
acre, as compared with 42 bushels on
timothy sod. •
Barley yielded 30 bushels per acre
on alfalfa sod, and only 20 bushels on
timothy sod. Canada is not a corn
country, yet the experiments show
similar results. Alfalfa sod yielded
24 bushels per acre of corn, as com
pared with 18 bushels on timothy sod
This is only one of many such experi
ments which give the same results,
proving alfalfa to be a soil enriching
crop.
ALFALFA MOST VALUABLE CROP.
Per Acre Value Five Time* More
Than Clover—Some Wisconsin
Census Figures Which Talk
for Themselves.
According to the 1910 census of the
hay crop, the state of Wisconsin jrrew
18,000 acres of alfalfa, which averaged
2.8 tons per acre for the entire Ftate,
and the average acre value of the
crop was $31.00. During the same
year the combined acreage of timothy
and clover averaged 1.6 tons per acre,
valued at $14.00. It costs no more to
grow an acre of alfalfa than ft does
to grow’ an acre of timothy or clover
The average cost of growing an acre
of clover or timothy is approximately
$10.00. Thus the farmer would clear
?4.00 per acre In growing these crops
whereas if he grew alfalfa he would
make a profit of $21.00 per acre, or

ALFALFA RICH IN PROTEIN
With 12.3 Per Cent, of Digestible
Protein, Alfalfa Surpasses Even
Wheat Bran in Feeding Value.
Alfalfa has high feeding value, as
shown by the chart below, • taken
from California Bui. No. 132. This is
due to its digestibility and its cotnposi
tion. Alfalfa is rich in digestible pro

Snow Liniment
Is a Healing Remedy for All Ailments of
the Flesh of Man and Beast.
The speed with which this splendid liniment heals up a had
wound or sore has surprised and pleased those who were accus
tomed to the slower and uncertain effect of less powerful reme
dies. It mends the lacerated flesh so quickly that there Is but
little time lost from work. In relieving rheumatic pains, neural
gia, sciatica, it has done and i doing a, wonderful work. Many
chronic victims of these diseases have found to their great satis
faction that it cures an attack in a fraction of the time required
by the ordinary treatment.
It is equally effective in the flesh ailments of animals. Owners
of blooded stock value it highly for two reasons: It heals sores
and wounds quickly, and leaves no disfiguring scars.
This remedy is needed in every horn If its great power and
efficacy was generally known, no family would be without It.
