The Way Out.
The cost of grub's beyond all par-
don; it makes me rend my duds; and
so this year 111 have a garden, and
raise my greens and spuds. Uke
others' I have formed the habit of
buying all my eats, from cauliflower
to potted rabbit, from succotash to
beets. My spreading lawn has been
devoted to grass, and still more grass,
but after this it will be coated with
blooming garden sass. I cannot eat
the lively roses that scent tlie country-
side; they're gratifying to our noses,
but are no good when fried. If I
should boil a mess of lilies, in place
of cabbage-head, the dish would give
my guests the willies, and set them
seeing red. I buy my cabbage from
the grocer, my tulip bulbs 1 raise;
and that is why the wolf draws closer,
and howls, these dismal da>s. This
year I'll raise my prunes and onions,
on these, my fertile lands, and ply the

Cct-Kieh-Quick Farming.
As a basis for building an Im-
pressive bonanza farming story, news
paragraphers could hardly find any-
thing more promising than the exper-
ience of E. G. Clarke, Charlotte coun-
ty, Virginia. While inspecting his fruit
orchard last spring, Mr. Clarke found
two pea-bean seeds in his pocket and
planted them at the foot of a small
cherry tree, and went his way. The
beans both germinated, grew, and
climbed the. friendly cherry tree for
support. Just the usual care was
given the trio—bean plants and cherry
tree—but when ripe the beans ex-
ceeded Scriptural measure of produc-
tion. Instead of yielding fifty or a
hundredfold, .Mi'. Clarke gathered titi-
beans as the crop from tlie two seeds!
planted, or a 331-fold production. Had j
he planted a bushel of pea-bean seeds i
and secured a proportional yield, his j
monetary reward would have been !
$3,000 at wholesale bean nrices. An i
had he been more ambitious r.nd 1
planted a fair-sized rummer
field, say forty acres, his gross Income
for beans for that season would have'
been $1)0,000.
Some such alluring story as this his
raised false hopes In the breast if
many a discouraged city toiler.

j Worrisome Wrinkles.
O one likes to haTe wrinkles any sooner than It can posvTrj
helped for they mar the beauty of a smooth, fair akla and
Indicate one of three things—a disposition to worry. Indifferent
care of the akin, or age. There are eeteral common causes for
wrinkles and If we understand these, we will know how best to combat
the enemy.
i Eren young people sometimes permit tbemseWes to frown, to
wrinkle the forehead, and to draw down the corners of the mouth, thus
In time making deeply graven paths. Every one who has a tendency
to a fault like thla should struggle to overcome It by looking Into a
mirror several times A day, smoothing out the creases, and determining
to cultivate a pleasanter frame of mind and a happier expr?sslon. The «
face reveals more truly than we realize just what we are Ilka Inside.
If we are too intense In temperament, let us cultivate poise and serenity.
If the skin is neglected and dust allowed to settle in the moist
creases, It will make the beginning of wrinkles. Then too, the constant
use of coarse or otherwise harmful cosmetic powders (especially if
these are not washed off at night) will result in time in a skin literally
criss-crossed with tiny wrinkles. A good powder properly used has iti
legitimate place as a protective agency, but its ubo
should not be abused.
Sometimes the skin loses its tenseness or elas-
ticity owing to 111 health or age and at the same
time there may be a disappearance of the layer of
fat Just beneath the skin which has kept it smooth
•nd filled out. Then, of course, there is n pagging
down of the entire surface and naturally wrinkles
, appear. Facial massage has to be very intelligently
* administered to be of any benefit at this time as we
must avoid any further stretching or loosening of the
] akin. A firm tapping motion is best because it brings
the hlood to the surface and gives exercise without
relaxatlcn.
The face should be washed once a day in warm,
