MAY PROVIDENCE IN
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
SSome one, some
where, is courting
somebody to-night,
and with such ai
large number of|
persons losing their \
hearts around him, j
1L is little wonder
that the god of love |
occasionally loses l
his head. Over- \
work ed, flushed
with success, and
withal a little con- i
celted because of
his power, he aims
indiscriminately to
the right and to the
left, and matches a
Beau Brummel with a Martha, and a
Becky Sharp with a plowman.
He whirls his victims till everything
around them assumes one shape and
one color, and the wrong sweetheart
looks like the right one. and the coun- j
terfeit love looks like the real. It Is
while they are still dazed, clutching!
fast to whatever comes iirst within
their grasp, that they reach the mar- j
riage altar and then the trouble;
begins.
The Cause
Such trouble and so much of it, and
all due to matrimonial misllts, it Is aj
wonder that there doesn't arise in the j
hearts of those still free a little sus-1
picion of the good intentions of Dan
and a determination to come 1
Into their own heri"ige of love with
eyes wide opened. It is a wonder that 1
young men and young women, sane 1
and # wise in ordinary transactions, do
not display at least a grain of com-!
mon sense in this one big and most
important transaction of their lives.

says he has a good position in busi
ness. How he holds it with the
amount of credulity he displays in his
letter is a mystery. If some one came
into his store and wanted to give him
; pennies for dimes he would feel that
his intelligence had been insulted, but
i along comes a woman who makes a
j similar offer, and he doesn't know
j what answer to give!
She is a widow with a child; he is
j only 22, and she hinted that she would
! like to marry him.
"What," he pleads, "shall I do?"
Lose that "good position." and then
, see if siie wants you to marry her'.'
I doubt it. The women who are the
real bargains on the matrimonial
counters are not going around, with
their children in their arms, hinting
; to mere boys to marry them.
Don't Risk lit
A woman writes that she is a widow
of 25 and has a son of 8, and is en
gaged to a man of 2S who hates her
child, and makes no attempt to con
ceal It. Shall she marry him? she
asks.
Again it may be stated that the
women who are bargains on the mat
rimonial counter are not engaging
themselves to men who hate their
prospective stepchildren. A woman
who is worth while loves her child
first of all and considers its interests
first. Unless she does, her love is not
worth much to any man.
A young man of 20 loves a widow
eight years his senior. He has a small
salary, and she is extravagant and
fond of pretty clothes, and would bring
in her demands on him, not only per
sonal wants, but the care and main
tenance of a young son. What, he
asks, should he do?
Run, young man, run! Your ex
treme youth gives you the right to
run. and run hard.
"Eighteen" wants to know if sht
by the view of such a scene and the
intake of such harmonies as were
granted by the craftsmen and artists
who staged and sang played this
opera would be to eoiness oneself de
ficient in those finer sensibilities which
have in every age been foremost in
humanizing the race. If language is
given us to conceal our thoughts, as
some cynic long ago declared, then
music must have been permitted to us
that wo might Interpret those potent
but unformed aspirations which words
do not describe.

Madame Ise'bell Advises
Thin Women to Look
to Their Digestion
""111119 tltt® 41
LESSON XIII—PART I.
Excessive Thinness.
I Excessive thinness is more difficult to
freat, as a rule, than obesity, for it is
generally the result of mal-asslmilatlon,
which is really a disease. Food reduction
will mitigate or entirely cure most cases
of obesity, but ta increase food consump
tion is by no means an efflcaclous method
;of treating thinness. Mai-assimilation
i may result from many causes: when such
i cases are obstinate and accompanied by
i weakness a diagnosis should be made by
a skilled physician and a regime laid out
I and followed.
There are other cases where apparently
healthy women fall below the average in
: weight: in such rases the cause can often
be found and treated.
Nerves and Worry.
We must remember that there is noth
ing more dependent on the mental atti
tude than the process of digestion. Ner
vousness, worry, over-excitement have a
direct and quick reflection in the diges
tive fluids. The body is not a machine
governed only by physical laws; if it were
»o, all people would profit by the same
regime, which we know is not the case.
Starch and Sugar.
Most regimes outlined for flesh accumu
lation lay stress on Increasing the con
sumption of starch and sugar. As has
been already pointed out. these are flesh
producing foods, but. unfortunately, they
are not always easily digested, and in
such cases do more harm than good. Most
thin people have a delicate or capricious
digestive apparatus and to overburden
this would probably bring about dyspep
sia, which would result in decreased rath
j er than Increased flesh.
. The first step in overcoming thinness,
therefore, is to overcome difficulties in
digestion. If such is the result of nerv
ousness, overcome this: if it comes from
overwork, rest and sleep more: if from
Improper food, find out just what kind of
food best agrees with you and limit your
diet to this. In the next article I "will
give a regime that has proven very suc
cessful with pupils suffering from undu»
thinness.

WHAT CONSTITUTES
REAL POULTRY MEAL
Expert Says No One Ration Satis
factorily Meets All the
Conditions Met
Continuous controversy is going on
as to what constitutes the ideal poul
try ration and the manner In which
| this should be fed. The fact that no
i one ration satisfactorily meets all coii
| ditions. The proper mixture for one
type of fowls may not be suitable for
I another. Climate and the system of
housing have a bearing upon the sub
ject. Since some can care for their
birds only In the early morning and
late in the evening, the convenience
of the attendant must be considered.
However, there are certain well es
tablished principles which should be
I observed. The ration must- be varied
| ill character and supplied in liberal
| quantities. For reasons of economy,
reliance should be placed upon feeds
I which are to be had locally at rea
sonable prices. Sometimes the addi
tion of some high-priced imported
feed falls to bring an increase in yield
sufficient to warrant Its continued use.
The laying hen must have food in
sufficeint quantity of kinds that con
tain the different elements entering
into the composition of an egg, to
maintain her body and turn out a
' highly concentrated product. She re
quires succulent vegetable matter,
animal food and grains. She may get
i along after a fashion if ono or more
iof these are omitted from licr diet,
but under such conditions her effi
ciency will be impaired and the re
sults secured will not be the best.
The varied ration is attractive to
I her. It stimulates the appetite and
| induces her to eat heavily.
| She must consume liberal quanti
. ties of raw material if expected to re-
I turn finished product in large quan
tities. Fresh air is a mighty impor
tant factor in maintaining the health
of a lien, but it will not suffice for
the making of egg shells or any part
of the egg itself. There is no dan
ger of overfeeding-on a varied ration,
especially during that period of the
year when short days keeps the hens
on the roost more than half the time.
In fact, the great problem during the
short days is to induce the layers to
eat enough during the daylight hours
to carry them comfortably through
the long, cold nights and still have
enough surplus for the manufacture
of the desired eggs.
Dignity of American
Hen Is Threatened
The dignity of the American hen's
labor is threatened; poorly paid hens
in Germany and China are under
mining her prosperity by turning out
an inferior product that is being
brought into this country since the
duty on eggs has been removed. It
means that the American hen, her
keeper and the' consumer of the im
ported eggs are all going to lose out;
likewise, the American cold storage
man is getting bumped.
Since eggs have been placed on the
free list large shipments to this coun
try from Shanghai and other ports
have been made. As showing how
the removal of the duty stimulates ex
ports to this country, it is shown that
iH December, 1913, the shipments
amounted to $71,000, in contrast with
$2,451 for the 11 months of 1913
when a duty on eggs was collected.
CAN YOU BLOW THE DUST?
Henry D. Smith, in addressing the
State Poultry Association assembled
in Hartford, Conn., last week gave;
this simple rule for determining
whether or not a poultry house is as
dry as it should be. Go into the
house and attempt to blow the dust
off the window sill and other places
where it would naturally collect. If
this can be done easily the house is
dry kVid well ventilated.

Every real boy wants a reefer coat. It it

same time, loose and comfortable and
leaves him freedom for action. Since this
one can be worn either open or closed at
the front, it is adapted to the very cold

find it simple and easily made. Chin
chilla cloth would be smart for the re
mainder of the winter. For the coat de
signed for the coming season, cheviot,
serge and the lighter weight cloths would
be preferable. Covert cloth with collar
of velvet would be distinctly smart and
eminently masculine.
For the 6 year size, the coat will re

GOOD LAYERS ARE
NOT GOOD BREEDERS
Late Hatched Chicks Are Poor
Proposition; Hens Have Vi
tality in the Spring
In feeding hens from which you
intend to breed, remember that what
ever loss there may be from poor
laying in the winter will be more than
regained in the Spring by reason of
the better results that will be ob
tained in hatching, and rearing chicks.
It is often true that hens may be used
for epg production in the winter and
breeding in the Spring for a season
or two with good results, but failure
is absolutely sure to follow if this
method is kept up. This is the prin
cipal reason why experienced raisers
do not use pullets for breeding. They
are very easily made to produce heav
ily during the winter and consequently
give poor results as breeders. Older
hens, on the contrary, do respond
readily during that part of the year.
It would seem that nature meant for
them to have that for a resting sea
son. They enter Spring full of energy
and vitality and consequently are
able to transmit it to a greater extent
to their offspring.
Egg farmers have long ago real
zed that late hatched chicks were a
poor proposition. Exhibitors and
fancy breeders often secure their best
young from their late clutches. The
reason is found in the condition as
stated above. The egg farmer's hens
are in a very low state if vigor from
heavy winter and Spring producing.
The fancier has learned that heavy
laying is not conducive to the best re
sults and does not urge his hens to
exert themselves. They are in good
physical condition when the other
fellow's flock is not.

tions relative to chickens, water
fowl and pigeons wild be answered

Such applications will be turned )
over to A. L. Martin, Deputy Sec- 1
retary of Agriculture, who will, so
far as possible, direct one of these !
experts to visit your farm or poul
try yards for consultation. Use
this service freely.
Q. Chickens were late this Fall or
winter in getting down to heavy lay
ing. Can it be accepted, therefore,
as a consequence there will be a cor
responding delay in the time at which
hens will in any number become
broody?
New Cumberland, Pa. Y. T.
Will you poison your child's stomach and deaden the little one's half-developed nervous system
with cough mixtures containing dangerous, habit-forming drugs, such as Opium, Morphine,
Chloroform and Codeine ?
Or, will you relieve the coughs and colds that children suffer from with the old-fashioned herb cough syrup? The
kind that contains NOTHING but pure, concentrated extract of such harmless, helpful herbs as Horehound,
Boneset, Field Balsam, Blood Root, Burdock and nine others of equal medicinal value, all used in yout
great grandmother's day? Think what Opium will do to your child —and then remember that
GOFFS COUGH SYRUP
is Reliable and Harmless
and that it contains no opium or other harmful drug. Decide to shun ALL cough mixtures containing injurious
drugs. Looking at the labels carefully is one way to avoid them; a better way is to ask for and insist on
having Golfs Cough Syrup— you will be sure to get effective, yet harmless cough syrup then.
GofFs brings quick relief from Croup, Whooping Cough, Measles Cough, severe and slight Coughs, Colds,

EWS ITEMS,
A. I am not able to say whether, '
as a consequence of fowls beginning
to lay late in the Fall, there will be
a corresponding delay in the time of
which hens will become broody. Such
a condition is very likely to be met
with the coming Spring.
Q. About half of my flock of
ninety-two White Wyandottes liavo
one side of the head swollen and are
showing unmistakable signs of hav
ing a cold in the head. My fowls are
not housed closely except in cold
weather. A cock that I sold was re
turned to the flock after being ab
sent two weeks, as I found he was too
valuable to dispense with. This bird
was the first to become afflicted.
Could he have infected the rest of the
flock? What treatment would you
advise ?
Allen, Pa. Miss A. D. B.
A. The symptoms reported in your
letter indicate roup. This disease is
very readily spread from one fowl to \
another. It is entirely possible that 1
the cock bird mentioned is responsi- t
ble for the infection. Remove all in- -
fected fowls from the flock. Use a so
lution of potassium permanganate in
the drinking water enough to make
the water a rich wine color. This
will tend to limit spread of the dis
ease. Individual treatment is seldom
advisable. Washing the face twice
daily in a 2 per cent, creolln solution
will be beneficial.
