Colors of Sardines.
The fresh sardine Is a beautiful lit
tle fish. The scales on its back are an
iridescent blue-green, the exact tint
which the sea so often takes, while be
neath the scales there shows up the
most wonderful peacock blue. There
are barn on it*-- back and sides when it
first comes out of the water like those
on the mackerel, hut they seem to fade
and disappear the moment It is exposed
to the air. The rest of its body is pure
silver.

Dear Mother and Father: *
This will let you know I am
o. k. and hope the same for you
all. I get out of heart writing as
I can't hear from any of you. 1
guess you are preparing for a big
Christmas. Well, 1 am enjoying
life for the war is over and am
coming back to old Georgia some
day; won't it be fine?
Well, I was on the Verdun
front and under shell fire about
25 days. I guess things are on a
boom in the states since the war is
over.
Am having big time picking
cooties and we sure have some
fun catching them. December 13
—I will answer your letters just
received today for I was so glad
to hear from you as had begun to
think you had forgotten ifie. I
had to read them before eating
supper. I atu now back in the
center of France in a little town.
Mother, you ask when I am com
ing back. Don’t know when it
will be but hope it will be soon.
Tell my friends 1 enjoyed them
writing me if 1 did not get their
letters. How I would enjoy being
with you all Christmas, but can
only hope you will think of me
during the holidays. Mother, it
rains every day and on Sunday for
a rarity. I will close, hoping to
hear from you all again right
soon. Goodbye until we meet
again. From
Your loving son,

LETTER TO MRS. ARCH
PERRY FROM FRANCE
Dec. 1, 1918.
Mrs. Arch Perry:
Dear Aunt and Uncle: 1 will
try and write at last. Would
have done so earlier but just
did not have the opportunity.
This leaves me doing very well.
Have been in hospital for several
days but nothing serious.
I sailed for France on the 14th
of June and have been in action
most all the time and have seen
most of France. I was in the Al
sace sector near the Swiss border
for three months and the last place
in action was near Verdun, east of
the Meuse river, where I was in
the trenches for twenty days. We
were almost worn out and did
not get any sleep hardly at all.
We were on our way to the trench
es after a short rest the morning
the armistice was signed. You
can imagine how glad we were. I
have had some great experiences
that I hope I may never have to
undergo again. I have gotten
through it so far without being
injured.
Aunt Alice, I haven’t heard
from any of my people in some
time. I guess you are very busy
preparing for Christmas. I have
thought many times of the holi
days spent in your home and en
joyed so much my stay with you
all. It will be quiet in France,
but we are now most interested in
getting home.
Hoping to hear from you all
again and to see you in the near
future, I am,
Affectionately, your nephew,
FELIX E. PERRY.

Pigs and Shoats
Between the 20th and 25th, we will
have another load of choice Tennessee Pigs
and Shoats. We had fully decided some time
ago to handle but one load tms season, but
so many have beeri here insisting that we get
one more load we have changed our
minds and will handle only one more load
this season. These shoats all have to be in
oculated, which adds a little more expense,
but the risk is no more than on native stock.
Don’t depend on us for boxes, for we
haven’t so much as a weighing box. Will
have just a few fat hogs.

REST FOR THE IIOME
KEEPEK.
In tliesestrenuous days many
a woman insist s that she has“no
time to rest,” and, indeed, it
seems at first that the state
ment is literally true. There
is never a time in a busy house
hold where there is not some
thing—usually something im
portant—for the busy home
keeper to take up the instane
she finishes the task in hand. It
reminds one of the direction
Bridget gave to Pat, during a
houseeleaning upheaval: “Pat,
while you’re restin’ you
might be ser u hbin’ down the
back stops!”
Tho 3 e who have tried it, how
ever, know that even a brie/
rest, a few moments of relaxa
tion, sends one back to work,
not only refreshed in mind and
body, but with the capacity for
swift and sun* work increased.
To use the maxim that has com
forted many a worried shopper
who lia s bought more expensive
linens or kitchen utensil or
rugs than she intended to, “it
pays in the long run” to re
cruit your strength bv short
rests at frequent intervals,
rather than by an enforced rest
of great duration.
Anew England woman,
whose sum total of work ac
complished was a wonder to her
neighbors, and who was neat
and smiling when her husband
returned in the evening, al
ways pleasant and cheerful
when the children came home
from school, admitted once that
it resulted largely —both work
and pleasantness — from rests
by the way, says the Journal
and Messenger.
“As soon as the children have
started for school,” she told her
inquiring friend, “1 set to worn
I have planned out everything
and have my arrangements of
work down to u science. But
if in the middle of the morning
a peculiar tiredness, which I
can tell from laziness, creepsov
er me, I yield to it at once. I
drop right down into an easy
chair and pick up the paper or
a magazine.
"Many of my good friends
would he rather shocked to sins
me reading, with dishes stand
ing, not yet dried, or, if dry, not
put away, beds u nmade, parlor
unswept, even washing half
done. But that rest means a
great deal to me. After from
fifteen or twenty minutes of it
I can go cheerily on with my
work. Many a breakdown could
be avoided if women knew the
value of short rest between
times.
“I remember,” she went on
meditatively, “that when my el
dest child came, my husband
and I were very poor. My
good doctor knew it would be
useless to advise me to get
help, either with the housework
or with the care of jthe baby.
But he told me what I could do.
“ ‘When the baby sl<H*ps,’ he
said, ‘take a little rest. Lie
down a few minutes a day. If
the work gets behind —well,
tluit’s a pity, but less a pity
than if you break down your
self.
“I took bis advice and the lit
tle rests by the way. And £
think all busy, tired mothers
will do well to take* both too.” —
