STake the Drudgery c
"Blithe as a bee, with busy care,
E he's here, she's there, she s every where,
Long ere the clock has struck for noon
Home chords of toil are all in tune;
And from each richly bounteous hour
She drains Its use, as bees a flower."
So sings Paul Hamilton Hay
no of "The Farmer's Wife,"
and his portrait Is a much truer
one than that of the "uplifters"
and philanthropists who Picture
the farm woman as a poor, lone
ly, broken creature, crushed by
neglect, isolation and ceaseless
drudgery.
But while the poet's picture
is nearer the truth, it is not the
exact statement of facts it
should be. We must all admit
if we are honest, that there are
entirely too many farm women
who are lonely and overworked
and that even the typical farm
woman lacks many of the com
forts, conveniences and labor
saving deyices she should have.
Occasionally some 'oi!,OtrIy
woman takes her Pon ani dtrawsj
a telling contrast bet weenl the
farmer's abundant - ind often
neglected- supply fI l or-Sav
ing tools, and ineitieint , out-of
date equipment with which his
wife is expected to work; and
there is often good reasons for
such contrasts.
All this should be changed.
One of the best things that
could happen in most farm
homes would be for the farmer
and the house keeper to get to
Lvether and see just what could
be done to improve the condi
ions under which the house
keeper works and to make her
work count for more. Wo feel;
sure that in nine cases out of
ten the family is financially able
to lighten the work of house
keeping to a degree the num of
the house-possibly tho. wonman
herself-- has never dreamed of.
Right here is a wonderful op
portunity for a litth teama work
to do great thigigs'

A Tried and -
Proved Guarantee
Man Bought a Bottle of Dod
son's Liver Tone, Then Took
It Back and Asked for
His Money and
Got It
A man recently tried out the
guarantee which Pickens Drug
Co. gives with every bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone. He
bought a bottle and then went
back to the drug store and said
the medicine hadn't helped him.
This druggist just reached in
to his cash register and took out
a half dollar, the price of the
bottle of Liver Tone, and hand
ed it back to the gentleman.
But he didn't take the money.
He owned up that he was just
- trying the guarantee and, as a
> matter of fact, he had found
Dodson's Liver Tone the best
I -mxnedy for constipation and
lbiliousnea?l.W hfl&ht '-0, . ,
"Why", he said, "my wife
would't be without a bottle in
the house for anything. It's
L the best thing in the world for
the whole family, and the medi
cine that I prefer to take or to
give to my children for a lazy
liver."
Pickens Drug Co. sell Dod
son's Liver Tone and guaran
tees it to start the liver without
violence. It is talcing the place
I of calomel everywhere. If you
buy a bottle and don't find this
pleasant-tasting vegetable liquid
the best thing to start a lazy
'iver, he will hid your money
back with a smile. Adv.
