Why He gave you perfect grace—
Why He made your cheeks so rosy-
Why you have so fair a face.

No. Priscilla; what attracts me
Is your silken princess gown;—

Or climb in it from below?

IN YOUR
GARDEN
There is no reason why you
shouldn't have a good garden,
and there is nothing that will
pay you quite as handsomely
on the investment. If your
ground is properly prepared,
if you have it properly work
ed, the only remaining essen
tial is GOOD SEED.
But no matter how fertile
the ground, or how well you
have it tended, it is all wasted
if the seed are poor. When
we say poor seed it does not
necessarily mean old seed.
They may he perfectly fresh,
but poor stock—just as a scrub
and a Jersey are both cows.
We sell GOOD SEED. We
buy our supplies in bulk direct
from D. Landreth & Co., who
have been in the business for
125 consecutive years. We
package them in our place,
giving liberal measure. We
guarantee that they are fresh,
full measure, and the best that
money will buy. The most
successful gardeners in New
nan are among our customers.
Are you one of them?

THE ALARM CLOCK.
When you're sleeping In the morning,
Sleeping soundly, sleeping deep;
When the daylight comes a-creeping
With its stealthy sort o’eroep;
When sweet dreams of peace and comfort
In this morning snooze abound,
Aren't you mad when your ularm clock
With a buzz starts ranting 'round?
Don’t you feel like throwing spusms
When that clock begins to go?
Don’t you hand it out some cuss Words
Just to sort o’ ease your woe?
IIow you scowl and how you grumble I
Don’t you wish you had a gun?
Don’t you swear that it's the biggest
I*est beneath the shining sun?
That’s exactly how It strikes me
When that clock begins to ring.
And I wish that I could get hold
Of the man who made the thing.
How I’d kick him! how I’d choke him!
How I’d knock him left and right!
That’s the way I feel—-but, still, I
Wind the darn thing up each night.
