Ife Ddk Devoted to tHe UptouUdln* and Frogreas ol Dalian and Paulding OouUty. VOL. XXVI. Dallas, Paulding County, Georgia, Thursd^ June 25, 1908. Number 3: * HOME'%,’PCLE t 7" 'DEPARTME&a * Old people have faults, like children,, bat they have• no mothers\o forgive them. Young people, should re member that you cannot trust a man simply because you see the golden rule pinned on the front of his hat. These days we sit on tfye sunny side of the car, walk on the sunny side ‘of the 'street, and sit in the sunfly window of the house. Let us also walk on the sunny side of life ^and see the sunny side of the disjointed things of life. Supplement what the chil dren learn at^school with read ing lessons at home. Read ing aloud, is good, will im prove the reading of the read er, and give information to members of the home circle 'who may be obliged to work with their hands in the even ing. When tempted to criticize the food on the home table, re member the adage that silence is golden. Critizism is never so exasperating to the house keeper as at the table, where, in spite of hard work and wor ry, things will occasionally appear that are not as she had planned. A Toast to Gentlemen, The following toast to gen tlemen is handed in by a lady contributor: Bless ’em! They halve our joys, they double our sorrows, they treble our expenses, they quadruple our cares, they ex cite our magnanimity, they increase our self-respect, wa ken our enthusiasm, arouse affections, control our proper ty, and out-maneuver us in everything. This world is a dreary world without them. In fact, I may say without prospect of successful contra diction, that without them this wouldn’t be much of a world anyhow. We love them, and the dear things can’t help it; we control them, and the pre cious things don’t know it. As husbands they are con venient, though not always on hand; as beaux they are by no means “matchless.” They are most agreeable as visitors, handy at state fairs, and in- dispensible at oyster saloons. They are splendid as escorts for some other fellow’s wife or sister, and as friends they are better than women. As our fathers they are inex pressibly grand. A man may be a failure in business, a wreck in constitution, not enough to boast fo as to beauty, nothing as a wit, less than nothing as a legislator for women’s rightSj and not very brilliant as a member .of the press, but if our father we overlook his shortcomings and cbver his peccadilloes with the divine mantle of charity. Then, as our husbands, how we love to parade them as paragons! In the sublime language of the poet: We’ll lie for ’em, \ We’ll cry for ’em And if we could we’d fly for 'em; We’d anything but die for ’em ! Starting in Life. You are soon to leave and break away from all the ten der ties of home, and go out to seek your fortune in the world. Let us whisper a few words of counsel. We sup pose you wish to be rich; most people do. We don’t think riches desirable. We should be sorry to have inherited wealth. But a competence is very desirable, is indispensi- ble. Well, the way to get it is by forethought to plan, in dustry to execute, and pru dence to keep the earnings of your work. Get what you honestly earn, but never take more. Money is by no means the best thing in life. You are here in this world to be come a good man, a wise man, a just man, an affectionate man, a religious man. Work for your manhood as much as for money; take as much pains to get, and as much ta keep it. Keep clear of vice, especially intemperance, gam bling and licentiousness. These three ruin thousands of young men every year. Be not gloomy, sour and stiff. Cheerfulness, gayety, liveli ness and mirthfulness belong to your period of life. You will find little real pleasure in anything your conscience for bids. As you have opportu nity, cultivate yoqr mind and forethought; prudence and in dustry will help you here as much as in getting money. And now would you prolong the sunshine of life forever? We must say to you there is no real happiness in life with out religion. It is a restraint from doing wrong, an encour agement to do right, and a great comfort at all times of life. And finally, remember, though absent from the sight of the dear ones at home you will ever live in their hearts; and their highest earthly wish will be that you may prove yourself a noble man. The Comfort of Being a Boy. There is a comfort to be a. boy in {he amount of work he can get rid of doing. It is something astonishing how slow he can go on an errand; perhaps, he couldn’t explain to himself why, when he is sent to the neighbor’s for yeast, he stops to stone frogs. He is not exactly cruel, but he wants to see if he can’t hit ’em. It is a curious fact about boys, that two will be a great deal slower about doing any thing than one. Boys have a power of helping each other do nothing. But say what you will about the general usefulness of boys, a farm without a boy would soon come to grief. He is always in demand. In the first place he is to do all the errands, go to the store, postoffice, and carry all sorts of messages. He would like to have as many legs as a wheel has spokes, and rotate in the same way. This he sometimes tries to do, and people " who have seen him “turning cart wheels” along the side ot the road have supposed he was amusing himself and biding his time. He was only trying to invent a new mode of locomotion, so he could economize his l%s, and do his errands with great er dispatch. Leap-frog is one of the methods of getting over ground Jquickly. He has a natural genius for combining pleasure with business. The parents tyho rear their sons in idlAess are doing them an unspeakable harm. Every boy is entitled to know by actual experience what hard manual labor means, and to get the blessing that comes from toughened muscles and a tanned skin. The boy who takes his hat off when he enters the house is the one who usually has his hair combed and his face clean, and the girl who says “please,” and “thank you,” is always prettier than the one who forgets these little things. You just look around and see if this is not true. A Great Family Medicine. “It gives me pleasure to speak a good word for Electric Bitters,” writes Mr. Frank Conlan of No. 4:«) Houston, St., New York. “It’s a grand family medicine for dyspepsia and liver complications; while for lame back and weak kidneys it can not l)e too highly recommended.” Electric Bitters regulate the diges tive functions, purify the blood, and impart renewed vigor and vitalily to the weak and debilitated of both sexes.

Mr. John Biha of Vining, la.,says, “I have been selling DeWitt’s Kid ney and Bladder Pills for about a year and they give better satisfaction than any pill I ever sold. /There are a dozen people here who nave used them and they give perfect satisfac tion In every case.

Cold rainwater and soap will take machine grease from was fabrics. - Do not black a stove while hot; it takes more blocking and does not polish well.

Amitionia will usuallp re store the color to silk which has been stained with fruit. Place a pan of water in the oven when baking potatoes to hasten their cooking. A little boiling water ad ded to an omelet as it thickens will prevent its being tough. Dishes on which eggs have been used should be soaked in cold water before washing.

Have as much wholesome fun as possible. Try to see the funny side of things; it keeps one young. Cultivate a habit of thinking cheerful thoughts, speaking only kind ness, and lending a helpful hand. Simplify everything. Practice deep breathing. Won derful results can be obtained from faithful and persistent work at this. A person with ful ly developed lung capacity not only purities his blood several times a minute, but renders him self practically unsinKable m water, even if he knows nothing about swimming. Avoid all drugs and medicines, except, of course, in case of real illness, when they should be giv en by a properly qualified physi cian. This rule applies even to the common laxatives, sleeping powders and digestive tablets so widely used. Water and exer cise render laxatives unnecessary. Exercise, solely, will cure sleep lessness, and food that is easily digested should be eaten.—Ex. W. P. Ward, of Dyersbnrg, Tenn., writes: “This is to certify that I have used Foley’s Orino Laxative for chrome constipation, and it has proven without a dpubt to he a thorough and practical rem edy for this trouble, and it is with pleas ure I offer mv conscientious reference.

She said that he had to take what he could get. Now, why should he? His work and money buy every scrap of food which enters the home. It is the husband’s right that he should have the food he likes best, properly cooked and served oil the table he bought, iti the house whose rent he pays, by the wife to whom he gives a house keeping allowance as a trust fund. He strives his very best to sup port his family in comfort and some degree of luxury. His wife should strive her very best to lay out the money he intrusts her with so as to secure health, hap piness and coutent in the home. It is a very clear bargain be tween husband and wife. If a man is “grumpy” at meals there's usually something the matter with the meals. The sourest- tempered male begins to smile when the savory scent of an ap petizing dish rises like incense before the altar of his appetite, Kisses and' sentiment do not compensate a man for poor cook ing and monotonous catering.
