10 JS§] HOUSEHOLD TALKS IKm Henrietta D. Grauet The Worth of Woman's Work "This world is so full of a number of r thiugs ! That we ull should be liappv as kings." —Stevenson. It behooves us all to find out the shortest cuts to the ends of our tasks and the best ways of doing our work for every day sees new interests and ■ new demands. Then, tno, there is the j ever-increasing trend upwards of foods ; and other necessities, so it is •important | to utilize all we have in as manv ways as are profitable. In homes where there are small chil dren the question of securing good values in everything that is purchased becomes especially deserving of thought, for children have a habit of growing up and out of things in an astonishing way, then the next little sister, or little brother can be fitted I out like new, with small expense. j This making over, cutting down and fitting things to the next youngster in size, is a wonderful example of woman's j economic value to the family. How lit- 1 tie we hear of the planning it takes to Jj make one outfit do duty twice. And, i though a pleasant thing to make the family comfortable and attractive, this 1 is not easy work. Men do not sa> so but it is under stood that woman's work is not of direct 1 productive value, in their opinion. The j drudgery of her hands and head is con >idered of little worth. The story of 1 the little hoy who was asked about the family's income and replied, "Pa gets ten dollars a week working on the street car. Sister clerks for &ix dollars and I sell papers and get fifty cents a week. Mother .just works for us all and she don't get nothing," comes to mind. I he planning, saving and skimping 11 <>" women swells saved pennies to mil lions of dollars yearly. This is often > of such small moment in individual cases as not to be told or taken ac- I count of. Hut account is taken of com- i FACT Local Evidence Evidence that can be verified. Fact is what we want. Opinion is not enough. Opinions differ. Here's a Harrisburg fact. You can test it. Mrs. Margaret E. Cleland, 1410 North Sixth street, Harrisburg, says: "I have taken Uoan's Kidney Pills off and on for the oast five years when ever I have suffered from pain in my back and when mv kidneys have seemed congested. At times I had inflamma tion of the bladder which was very annoying. T had difficulty in passing; the kidney secretions. I can always tell when this trouble is coming on for i 1 have dull headaches and my sight be- j comes blurred. Doan's Kidney Pills . were recommended to me very highly j after I had used other remedies but had gotten no relief. The first box j helped me wonderfully, and after tak- | ing the third box I felt like a different ' woman." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't | simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills —the same that j Airs, Cleland had. Foster Milburn Co., j Props., Buffalo, N. Y. i SUSrNESS COTAEQEa. f -v I HBCi,.

The homo that turns forth well trained useful young men and women makes the greatest possible Icontribution to the moral wealth<Af our world and surpasses all mere financial values.
