THE HOME CIRCLE
■4
There is no need of doing without furniture
you need when Christmas comes once a year. At
that season “Hubby” will “loosen up” and give you
anything you ask for. Of course a wise woman
will ask for things for the home. Send your hus-
band to select your present from our big, new stock
of the latest and best furniture, and you too come
and buy that easy couch for his present.

A Well Dressed Woman.
To be well dressed is a woman’
duty, just as it is her husband’s
duty to make it possible.
Good clothes have a remarkable
effect upon a woman. They add
to her charms, her poise and her
influence, not only among ac-
quaintances, but upon her own
family.
To say they increase her effi-
ciency is to express that which is
well known, but it is not so well
recognized or understood that
good clothes are absolutely neces-
sary to a woman’s happiness and
peace of mind. With them, and
an occasional opportunity to
wear them, she will be content
and uncomplaining among a hun-
dred trials and tribulations.
It is unnecessary to remind a
man who thinks and analyzes
that good clothes for his wife are
just as important as good stock
and modern machinery.
_ 'fTSI*'--
Cause of Decadence.
One cause of the decadence of
love for home is the migratory
disposition of our people, says
Farm and Ranch. Thousands of
families are constantly changing
homes, drawn hither and yonder
under the glamour of “doing
better.” It is always further on
that Good Times has its home,
that better soil, better wages or
better people beckon to the man
dissatisfied, perhaps, with the
cause. The old-time home, which
descended from generation to
generation, is hardly known in
this day. The love of home im-
planted in the hearts of children
because it was their birthplace;
because father planted the trees
and mother embellished it with
her handiwork within and with-
out; because upon its altar fath-
er and mother, in the prime of
youth, lighted the sacred flame of
love that through years of vary-
ing joy and sorrow burned
steadily and brightly, making
MCme a type of heaven. Not
these, hut the lack of these senti-
ments of fidelity to home tradi-
tions, of stability of purpose, of
reverence for parents, all conduce
to lead the young away from
home.
Another cause for present' home
conditions is the habit of going
a wav from home for many of the
things that should be made or
produced at home. In the home
of which we elder people have
memories all clothing was made
in the home. Mother and daugh-
ter were kept busy and happy
with sewing, knitting and mend-
ing ; ‘ ‘ ready-to-wear ’ ’ garments
were unknown. The bread and
cake were baked in the home, so
were made the preserves, pickles,
etc., all affording pleasant em-
ployment. In many homes in the
country spinning and weaving
\vere a part of the household
work, and while we do not ad-
vocate a return to these, because
our clothes comes to us much
cheaper and more beautiful than
we could possibly make it, it is
only to emphasize the truth that
an interest in home work and a
certain amount of home employ-
ment endears the home to its
occupants.
the rural scenery over the wash-
tub. These aspirations can at
least he partly satisfied with
some of the modern, easy-to-be-
secured conveniences which are
so necessary to the health and
happiness of every housewife.
Science has done far more for
the farmer than his wife and the
man on the farm should apply
science to his kitchen as well as
to his barns and to the raising of
his crops.
To clean decanters and vinegor
cruets, roll small pieces of blot-
ting paper into little wads; wet
and soap them well, put them in
decanters that are one-quarter
full of warm water , shake them
well for a few minutes then
rinse in cold water.

USE OF CALOMEL
PRACTICALLY STOPPED
For Billious Attack*, Constipation and
All Liver Troubles. Dangerous Calo-
mel Gives Way to Dodson’s Liver
Tone,
Every druggist in the state has
noticed a great falling off in the
sa-le of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson’s Liver Tone
is taking its place.
“Calomel is often dangerous a’nd
people know it, while. Dodson’s
Liver Tone is perfectly safe and
gives better results,” says The City
Drug Store.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is person-
ally guaranteed by The City Drug
Store who sells it. A large bottle
costs 50 cents, and if it "fails to
give easy relief in every case of
sluggishness, you have only to ask
for your money back. It will be
returned. Dodson’s Liver Tone is
pleasant tasting, purely vegetable-
remedy—harmless to both children
and adults. A bottle in the house
may save you a day’s-work or keep
your children from missing school
Keep your liver working and your
liver will-nip keep you from work-
ind.

Do More for the Wife.
The kitchen of the housewife
on the farm is probably the
weakest point in scientific farm-
ing.
The storage capacity of the
hungry men on the farms, in most enough
cases, is .rather appalling, and
science, as applied to agriculture,
has done comparatively little to
lower the tempera, ure of
lien in midsum er. The col-
