When aeheerful, brave, light-hearted woman is suddenly plunged into that perfection of misery, the BLUES, it is a sad picture. It is usually this way ; She has been feeling “out of sorts’' GOOD JOKE ON THE FATWEB. for some time; head has ached and back also; has slept poorly, been quite nervous, and nearly fainted once or twice; head dizzy, and heart beats very fast; then that bearing-down feeling, and during her periods she is exceed ingly despondent. Nothing pleases her. Her doctor says: • ‘ Cheer up : you have dyspepsia; you will be all right soon ” But she doesn’t get “ all right,” and hope vanishes; then come the brood ing, morbid, melancholy, everlasting BLUES.

He refused her a icense to 1 © married in Jackson county and notified the legist rs in neighboring counties not to issue such a paper to his daughter. The girl made no attempt to evade the parental edict, and the matter had been almost forgotten. Recently it became necessary for Mr. Dills to leave the county, and as was his usual course lie left Miss Emma in charge of the office. In case anybody should apply for a license to marry in his absence Mr. Dills signed his name to several blank licenses, instructing the girl how to fill them out The young wo man followed his instructions to the letter, filling out one of ae blanks with her own name and that of her i .oetkeart.

Get Ready and Come. \ BUYl x'G A FARM ^ tide °f Great Value to Those linking of Raising Poultry. r Wirren n Poultry Advocate.) In this broad land of ours there .it t be hund eds if not thousands hn ire looking forward to the pur diase of a farm. In al men of Anglo- blood there is a land hunger tin is pretty sure one day to mani- exr, itself. Some want a firm for a • i <t for the summer months. Others ant one as a haven of refuge for i heir declining years. Still others mfi a farm as a business proposition, elievlng that a farm rightly handled will yield large returns. Reil estate agents sav that the demand for farms were- never more active than today. It. is for the purpose of assisting the reader who wants a farm, and espe- cla lv the reader who wants a poultry r arm. that this article is written. Location. Where shall the prospective farm he located? This is the first question to he asked. Shall the buyer go to New England with its teeming maau- facturfng centers and its innumerable summer resorts, its splendid markets and its pleasant villages? Shall he go to New Jersy, with its sandy soil especially adapted to poultry, and its proximity to some of the greatest cities in the country? Shall he go to the Middle West where the winters are mild and food products can be bought at. prices that touch rock bot tom? Or shall he cross the continent to where Petaluma overlooks San Pablo bay—that magic town where the hillsides are dotted with White Leg horns as far as the eye can see and where poultry keeping is the leading industry? My answer to the question is: l^o- cate somewhere near where you are. I do not mean necessarily to loaete in the same town or even in the same State, hut 1 would not advise you to go more than a hundred miles away. Why? Because you have struck your roots down where you are. and men and trees suffer from transplanting. You know the section where you are— the people and their peculiarities, the •oil and climate, the markets, and a liottsand and one things that you ■voitld have to learn ail over in a new ‘h'M. Then, too, each section has its offsets as well as its advantages, and in man,’ cases the gain does not com- 'leasate for the loss. I am more fa il iar with New England than with anv other tart of the country. It is a grand place for pouitrymen. The markets are among the best, in the world. Then* tire men who are mak ing a success in the poultry business in everv State In the Union, and in j every State there are men who are making a failure . “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars. But in ourselves, that we are un ' delings.’’ After you have settled the matter of location the next thing is to find the farm. There are three possible ways. The first is to tal:*e two or three weeks, or two or three months, and drive through the section where you wish to locate and look up prop erties that are for sale. This takes time and takes money, hut if one has plenty of both it is not a had way. One becomes acquainted with farm values and can sometimes pick up a bargain that will pay him well for the time and money snent. The second way is to advertise. There are hundreds and thousands of farms that are on the market, and an advertisement for a farm in the right medium will ha sure to bring numer ous replies. The third wav is to go to a real estate dealer and look over his lists. It is said that one real estate agent in New Eng’and has 5,000 properties on his books. It is natural for a man with a farm to sell to place it In the hands of a real estate agent, and in looking over a list one ought, to he able to find two or three properties t^t he would like to investigate. In dealing with an agent one must be on his guard lest he he over-pursuaded and purchase against his better judg ment. It is the agent’s business to make a sale, his comission depends upon it. and naturally he is going to make the property as attractive as ' ossilde There is danger that one •nav he hypnotized. Sti 1. agents have their place and an honest agent is a rood friend to both buyer and seller. I most earnes'ly ad hire the pros uective buyer to ten all thoughts iway from boving an abandoned farm.

In the coun try oue is thrown much in contact with his neighbors, and therefoie it is important that he get in a good neigh borhood. 2. Size and soil. The demand now is for small farms, farms that range from five to twenty-five acres in size. Such farms sell better than larger ones and are more desirable. The large farm requires a large outlay for machinery, and the owner must keep help. Five acres will keep a man busy, provided he practices intensive farming, and will often yield a larger profit than a big farm. The poultry man should raise a good portion of his own feed. No soil Is too good for the poultryman. The ideal soil is a sandy loam, and if there is a slope to the south or southwest so much the better. But fowls can be kept upon almost any soil, provided it is not so damp that water stands on it a good part of the time. Even if th soil is run out the hens will soon bring it around if there was anything to it to start with. 3. Water and Wood. Who does not remember the ‘old oaken bucket” that came splashing up from the cool depths of the well, brimming and overflowing with Its liquid load, and how refreshing a draught of that water was On a sultry summer day? A good "“•ll on a place is worth hundreds of dollars in health and comfort. Al ways test the water and find out whether the well goes dry in season of drought. A spring or brook in the pasture is also important. It is a good thing if there is a wood lot on the farm of sufficient size to -uipp y the family fires, although this is not indispensable. 4. Condition of Buildings. It makes all the difference in the world in the value of a place whether the build ings are old and dilapidated or wheth er they are in good repair. Nothing s more deceptive than an old build ing. It looks as if it only needed « fe- slight repairs to put it in good v’dition. but when you commence re seems to be no place to stop. ' place Is not cheap, no matter the •ellin r price, if the buildings are in a tale of decay. ■i. Title. See that there are no de- ‘ects in the title. In order to do this it may be necessary to employ a lawyer. He will look up the records in tin* office of the register of deeds md report whether or not there la any encumbrance. A mortgage upon a ’dace need not necessarily be con sidered an encumbrance. The buyer sitnnlv deducts the amount of the mortgage from the amount paid the sel er. and assumes the liabi ity. Always demand a warrantee deed, and be satisfied with nothing short of it. The cost of making out the deed is assumed bv the seller. It is usually best to take out an In surance policy on tin* buildings. Paying for the Farn. The ideal way of paying for your far.n of course would be cash down; hitt in the majority of cases this is impossible. Something must remain on a mortgage. It is always better to place the mortgage with a savings Link than with the seller of the farm. Something niav happen in a year or two that will cause him to need the money, and he may press the buyer or dispose of the mortgage to a money shark. Savings banks, on the other hand, make a business of loaning money on mortgages, and .as long as the Interest is paid and the property kept in good shape, win not distress the mortagee. It is not generally known, but Its a fact that savings banks are now encouraging men to buy farms by making it possible for them to pay the mortgage In monthly installments. If a man can pay $10 a month a bank will advance $1,000 on a $1,500 farm apply the month ly payment to the reduction of both principal and interest. In general it should be said that a man should not purchase a farm un less he is aide to pay at least a third down and then have something left over for working capital. Pearls are Al| the Rage.

The modest, tearful pearl is in the ascendency at Newport, and all because Mr. Leeds bought Mrs. Leeds a pearl necklace while they were abroad.

If a census could be made one would probably be amazed at the vast num ber of grown folks who clos o their day with the wnrevised “Now I lay me.” Many of them make it the con clusion of prayer actually said as they kneel at (heir bed side. Many, in sub conscious protest against the formal ism which dominates so much of the public and private devotions of the times, do not kneel, but they do not, for-et the words they learned to lisp as babies. Some, immersed in world affairs and carrying their business cares and worries into the realm of their dreams, may not consciously plan to pray, but they find their minds dwelling at midnight upon the famil- !o r lines, and they are better men and women for that. Such folks naturally resent the recent suggestion of revis ion of the line. “If I should die before I wake.” They are not afraid for any terror by night, and many of them as they close their eyes in final sleep wi“ give their last thought to “Now I lay me.” “On the contrary, I have confidence in both. I believe all the bad things they sav about each other are abso lutely true.” A bridegroom once presented the bridesmaids at his wedding with nearl brooches.
