It is unreasonable to expect a

that long.
What's the use of hollering for a
big standing army what we want

Anyway, when a womar brags of
making a fool of a man, it is ac
knowledgement that he was one to
start with.
How exasperating folks are who
instead of being convinced by our
argument, try to talk us into their
way of thinking.
A woman may worry her life
a vay about the actions of her
n hghbors without learning that
they are doing the same about her.
We hurrah for the constitution
until we find it does something we
ti,ink it should not do, or doesn't
do something we think it should do.
Don't try to but in on a woman's
first quarrel with her husband.
She’ll say everything that can be
said without any aid from those
more experienced.
To abstain from wrong' doing
merely through fear of a » law or
ough fear of pub'ic opinion is
uati to be nearly as sinful as com
mitting the act.
Any old girl is pretty when
ail dolled up the test of her
A-eetness and beauty is how she

HOME-PLANNING IN COUNTRY
Whole Farm Layout Shouid Bo
Sketched and Studied Before Any
Buildings Are Erected.
I Put the house, if possible, on an omi
' nonce, or rise, facing east or south,
1 with a gentle slope away from the
! front. Don't build too near the road,
| nor yet too far back—150 to 200 feet
! will generally be about right.
Don’t, don’t ever put the barn and
! lot buildings in front of the house,
j The only logical place for these is in
| the rear and hidden, if practicable,
by trees, vines and shrubbery.
llefore building, give study and
time to planning the whole farm lay
j out, Progressive Farmer advises.
I Doing this may save many later re
l grets. Take paper and pencil, and,
with the aid of the family, sketch the
1 grounds as they should be when the
building and planting scheme Is com
pleted. It ymy and probably will be
years before all details of building
and planting are completed, but then
there will be u harmonious, pleasing
| whole. Aim at an ideal and come as
negr reaching it as possible.
As never before, convenience and
simple dignity are the aims of house
building. A compact, well-arranged
plan saves steps for the housewife and
likewise building materials.
Put in plumbing and wiring as tlie
house Is built. Every live, hustling
farmer these days should aim at noth
ing less than waterworks, a sewage
disposal system and electric lights, or
at least an acetylene lighting system.
Make the farm home lit its surround
ings ; the country is no place for osten
| tatious show. Multitudes of gables,
i bay windows and vlvid-tlnted paints
I Jar especially In country houses, be
i cause they give an air of artificiality
| among nature’s harmonies of coloring.
Have an open grass lawn. How
ever well designed and built a house
1 may be, If it has no green lawn In
front It Is incomplete. Make the lawn
open and free from shrubs or flowers
except at the borders.
Frame the whole picture with flow
ering shrubs and trees. Directly in
front of and near the house is no place
for trees, however beautiful they may
be; rather place them at the side und
; toward the back, bordering them with
flowering shrubs like the crape myrtle,
and these, in turn, with banks of the
1 easily grown flowering annuals like
zinnias and salvia.
Put vines, preferably a hardy ever
green like the English ivy, over un
sightly fences, stumps and walls.
Make stately, cool avenues of the
hot, dusty lanes by bordering them
with pecan trees.
“Weekly Payments" for Wives.
Generally speaking, says a writer In
the Wide World Magazine, u Soudan
ese Is content with one wife, hut the
marriage laws vary considerably among
different tribes, though all have much
.n common. A man buys his wife, or
rather gives the value agreed upon—
?ash in prosperous towns like Otndur
tnan, and cattle and grain in the coun
ry. Half of the amount Is usually band
ad over to the bride’s people before
marriage, and is spent on wedding fes
tivities; the remainder is paid by In
stallments. You get your wife, In short,
m the hire-purchase system; the mot
to of Soudanese fathers-ln-lnw, where
allglble daughters are concerned, is evi
dently “Weekly payments taken." The
nrlee of a wife varies considerably. In
idmdurmnn, where the natives are well
to-do, a wife costs from i>75 to $lf>0, or
Rven more. There is no restriction up
in the number of wives a man muy
have; n wife Is regarded as so much
personal property, and valued accord
ingly.
Lessons Learned In Sleep. ,
Lessons have been learned und diffi
cult problems solved while in sound
slumber.
A young girl, |hrough the death of
her futher, was told that she must
leave school unless she passed an ex
amination which would entitled her to
a scholarship. She studied assiduous
ly, and on one occasion carried her
school hooks to her bedroom, Intending
to rise early the next day for the pur
pose of study. In the morning, on
looking over her lessons, she was sur
prised to find that she already knew
them. This happened for several suc
ceeding days, when she mentioned the
circumstances to her mother, who de
termined to watch her. This she did.
and observed the girl get up ns soon
ns It was light, apply herself to her
lessons, and then return to bed. When
awake she had no Idea of what she
hnd done.
