With Her Dear
Mether, the Faithful
Daughter Says:
I must bring that dear, gray-haired old mother
0f mine from her little hut of a cottage in the
country back te town."
Don't you suppose the country people, who
live in it day in and day out the year round,
laugh at us when we say, "the country for
Summer and the city for Winter?"
Don't you suppose they are glad te de
without us and have all te themselves the
beauties of the Winter, blue skies, the naked
trees, the short days, the long evenings, the leg
fires en the big hearth taking up one sijle of the
big living room, where they sit around at nights
and tell stories, crack nuts and jokes, roast
apples, drink cider and play dominoes, happy in
their long, uninterrupted merry evenings?
The early'sunsets and the late sunrisings of
the Winter mornings add te .the restfulness of
the hard workers of the long days of Summer
and te the joyfulness anrf delights of the long
evenings by the fireside.
Se it ought te be te make homes dearer.

Autumn Hat
Few women start en its- trail

Millinery affinities of this sort
