Word Origins. i
"Take no thought for the morrow"
Is now understood in an entirely different
manner from that in which it
was intended when the King James
version was prepared. Then the expression
"to take thought" was universal
as a synonym for anxious solici- i
tr.de. Tabby, the name of a well- '
known species of eat. was formerly
abi, which was a term used to desig- j
nate a peculiar pattern in the silks
manufactured in Persia. The markings
in the fur of the ent resemble the
pattern in the silk, hence the double
application of the name. Jovial once
m ant the type of character supposed
to belong to all persons who were
born when the planet Jupiter, or Jove,
was in the ascendent. They wore supposed
to possess more of the cheerful
elements of character than others,
and hence to partake of the benign
Qualities attributed to the Father of
the Gods.

eastern as well as western cities. The

bear a brief description of the position

of applicant required, etc. The
person who thinks he can meet these
requirements can secure the card for
25 cents, and will find the name and
address on the back. There Is no risk
of even this small sum, for if the position
is filled the applicant can get his
money back by returning the card. As
the bureaus charge a fee

TWO FAMILY GARDENS
iVALUABLETO FARMERS
Most Productive Fraction of an
Acre on the Entire Place
WILL SUPPLEMENT INCOME
Order Bulletins 2 55 and 460
Issued by the United Stat
es Dept. of Agri. for
Instructions and
Details
The garden spot is the most produc
tivo fraction of an acre on most farms
yet on many it is often one of the
most neglected in many respects. In
the hurry and rush of the spring work
it is manured possibly, and plowed
and planted, or partly planted ,nnd
then the care of it folly in
and children. If the farmer were careful
to consider the proportion of the
family that comes from gardens, he
wuld realize that it deserves much
more careful attention than it receive
from him.
Not only can the garden be made
much more profitable, and help out the
family ration by increasing it and also
by balancing it somewhat better,
but it can also be made a means of
considerable supplement to the income
received from the principal farm industries.
By having a two-family
garden?that it raising garden stuff
enough for two families and finding
a customer in town or city who would
like to have garden (and other) products
direct from the farm at least
once each week?more could be realiz?.]
C 11. ' '
cu Hum tne iarm, noth for the family
table and the family purse. Many a
town or city housewife would be glad
to receive a good-sized market basketful
of fresh garden stuff directly from
the producer by parcel post, express
or direct by the farmer's own conveyance?whichever
would prove the
most satisfactory and economical.
While there is quite a list of garden
vegetables that can be grown in practically
any garden, yet very many gar
dens arc limited to a comparatively
others being included rather incidentally.
In undertaking to conduct a
two-family garden one of the first
things of importance is to secure contract
with the town or city consumer
to be supplied. This is important because
the city family has probably
been using many kinds of vegetables
that the farmer has not raised, at
least not in any quantity, and the
plans for next year's garden should
be begun as early as possible. The
kinds of vegetables to be raised should
be decided upon after learning the
quantities and kinds used by the city
family concerned, good seed secured
in plenty of time, and such work done
toward the preparation of the garden
as thet weather will allow. Winter
vegetables, as well as those used direct
from the garden in summer
should be kept in mind. These include
not only such as dry navy, kidney,
and lima beans, but also lettuce,
kale, spinach, cabbage, celery, carrots,
turnips and the like, depending on the
particular section of the country. (For
instructions and details on gardening,
see United States Department of Agriculture
Farmers' Bulletins 255 and
400.) As stated above, the town or
city consumer will likely desire vegetables
that are not now particularly
used or cared for by the farm family,
but the aim should be to produce that
which would be desired by the customer
as well as that desired by the
farm family if the plan it to succeed.
In planning for a two-family garden,
not only should the different kinds
of vegetables be provided for but particular
attention should be paid to the
desires of the customer with refenonce
to quality. Many city husewives,

beans; when they ask for these they
have in mind more a quality than a
varietal name, and if they ask for
stvingless beans and are assured that
they can receive them, and then when
they come to use them find that they
have strings, they will not be disapj
pointed to a considerable extent but
discouraged at the idea of direct mark
eting as being preferable to securing
their vegetables in the ordinary wa>
! from the city market or grocery store
While it will not be possible to catei
to all the whims of the would-be cus
tomer, it must be kept in mind thai
the farmer's family usually takes sue!
quality as is produced without anj
particular questioning, but when i
city consumer orders from a farmei
he expects to get produce of a quality
which he has in mind ,and every en
deavor should be made to meet hi:
i reasonable requirements so that th<
business may be established upon i
mutually satisfactory working basis
Give a purchaser what he or sh<
wants and is willing to pay for.
Not only will this plan provide ai
outlet for vebctables (and it is prac
tically as easy to raise vegetables fo
two families as for one), but it will al
j so establish a contact through whicl
various other farm products many b<

BIG BUSINESS COLLEGE, I
SPECIAL ANNOUNCI
Largest and Best Known Institi
Most Liberal Offer to Yi
In keeping with the spirit of times,
the management of Draughon's
Practical Business College of Columbia,
S. C., (one of the chain of big
Draughon Colleges located throughout
the Southern and Western States)
announces four (4) money saving
plans for 1914, to young men and
young women planning to enter College
in January.
While the majority of small business
colleges are no longer able to
accept cotton at ten cents per pound
| in payment of tuition the Big
; Draughon College of Columbia is conj
tinuing to offer this ten cent cotton
j plan, and also announces that notes,
payable one year (or loncer.l from
1 date, will be accepted in payment for
! scholarships, while the temporary
period of business depression conI
tinues, in fact this institution is ox!
tending to its patrons throughout the
State tlie most liberal terms and conditions
with reference to manner of
making tuition payments.
Following are the four (4) plans of
enrollment offered:
1. Cotton Plan?Cotton will be accepted
(strict middling) in payment
for scholarships and ten cents per
pound will be allowed for it. One 500
pound bale will pay for a $50 complete
scholarship in the Bookkeeping
and Banking Department of Drauglion's
College or a complete scholarship
in the Shorthand andTypewriting
department. Two such bales will be ac
cepted for a combined Scholarship of
both Bookkeeping. Shorthand and aux
iliary studies.
2 Cash Plan?Where the student
enrolling pays cash for scholarship, a
"War Discount" of $10.00 will be
allowed and Railroad fare of the
student to Columbia will be paid by
I the College. This is equal in every
| way, from an economical standpoint,
j to the cotton plan offered above, and
will only remain in force for such a
j limited time as in the opinion of the
I Uollege management present existing
conditions may justify.
I 3. Note Plan?If the student wishes
i to give a note, payable a year (or
longer) from date, for the full price
- of the scholarship, allowing sufficient
time for the student to complete the
course, accept a position and earn the
money with which to pay the note before
it falls due, the regular catalogue
price is charged for each scholarship,
' which is a few dollars higher than
| the cash price. Where 30. 60 or 90
1 days notes are given, no difference in
price is charged. Many students enter
Draughon's College each year under
this note plan, and complete their
course, accept positions and earn the
j money to pay their notes before they
fall due. If you are interested in this
plan, write for special note plan
blank which gives full information.
4. By Mail Plan?Any young man
or young woman can purchase a
Draughon Scholarship for the Bookkeeping
and Banking, or for the
Shorthand and Typewriting course,
and pay for his scholarship with cotton
( on a basis of ten cents per
pound), with cash, or with an approved
note. The student can then
remain at home, and the College will
French "Immortalc."
The "Forty Immortals" are those
constituting the membership of the
French Academy, the most eminent of
the five academies known together aa
1 the Institute of France. It was foundi
ed in 1G35 by the celebrated Richelieu
I and reorganized in 1810. Its forty
j members, after tne strictest examinaI
tion, are elected for life. It meets
twice weekly at the Palace Mazarin
! and is the highest authority on everything
literary in the country. A
(hair in the academy is the highest
ambition of all literary Frenchmen.

I teach him by mail for 3, 4, or 5
I months or longer( as long as the
student desires), after which the said
student goes to Columbia, enters the
departments of the college and completes
the course thoroughly under
the direct supervision and guidance
of experienced instructors. Under
this plan, the scholarships are good
for instruction both 13Y MAIL and at
COLLECJE, and after studying by:
mail as long as desired the student
enters the institution to complete the
work on the same scholarship, with
out any additional charge whatever,
Full information and testimonial letters
from those who have actually
uodn popuui oq piA\ uiqd sii{t posn
i request. Write for them.
The above plan (No. 41 will
chilly appeal to many young men i
and young women throughout the I
State during the coming year, because!
many can afford to purchase a $50 j
scholarship, for cash or with cotton (
(at ton cents), but do not fool able or,
willing, under the conditions now i
existing, to undertake the monthly i
board and living expenses which attending
a college certainly makes
j necessary. While progress is not so
rapid in taking lessons by mail, the
saving in board and living expenses
means a great deal. After taking the
Home study lessons, a student should
be able to go to College, complete the
work thoroughly in six to eight weeks
and accept a position. Individual letters
from those who have used this
plan during the past year is the best
proof that you can use it too. Write
for full details.
After the European war has closed
and business conditions have adjusted
themselves and become normal
again, this entire country will experience
the greatest and most prolonged
period of prosperity and business
expansion and development that
it has ever known within its historv.
and opportunities of rapid promotion
and advancement in business, for
those young" people who have the
necessary training and are prepared,
will be more plentiful than have ever
been the case before. The far-sighted
young man is already realizing this
and is making plans, if he has not
already made them, to secure a |
thorough and practical business train-!
ing so as to be ready for the oppor- j
tunities which every big banker and
business man will tell you are sure to
be so plentiful.
Parents who are now planning to
place son or daughter in Business
College, or young men who look forward
to preparing themselves for successful
business careers, and wish to
economize as much as possible, should
write for full information concerning
one of the above plans. Money saved
is money made, and Draughon's training
(endorsed by Bankers and Business
men everywhere) and the
Draughon's Business College (the
largest business educational training
institution in the State) need no introduction
to the public, the superi!
ority of the course of study and the
greater facilities for securing positions
for students being well known.
The Wrong, Weigh.
While the writer was on one of the
subway stations recently a woman
shopper walked hurriedly to a scales
(which is conveniently placed for the
use of passengers) to weigh herself.
Before stepping on the scales, however,
she stopped and deliberately removed
her heavy winter coat and carefully
placed it across her arm. She
then stood on the scales, was weighed,
1 and, stepping down, put on her coat
and calmly walked away.?interborough
