Ought a Man Push the Perambu
lator?
Onrnthy I)lx, in Atlanta (Sroniian.
Who should push the perambulator
when a man anil his wife anti the baby
go out for u walk?
I have received a letter from a man,
who writes:
"Why should a man have to wheel
Ills child through the city streets? Why
should not hlb wife do it? It is most
humiliating to a man to pass his friends
while he is pushing a baby cart, and to
have to listen to their remaka. It is
surely u woman’s duly, but I do not
like to quarrel with my wife, so I am
asking your opinion on the subject, for
which I will be very grateful.”
What's the matter wilh pushing the
luiliy carriage as it respectable job for
a family man? What is there about it
to make a man blush and hang his head
in shame? I fail to see in it anything
derogatory to masculine dignity. It
seems to me that a man with Iho per
ambulator is far moro admirable limn
the man with I he automobile, and that
it is better to take the haliy joyriding
than it is to take a chorus girl.
The man who thinks that he looks
ridiculous when ho is seen taking the
huhy out riding in his little go-eart
would In* filled with pride and vainglory
at the spectacle he presented tearing up
the streets in a high-powered racing
car.
Yet he is a million times more use
fully and worthily employed in trund
ling tin 1 baby wagon than he would be
in smashing records and dodging the
traffic police in a gasoline wagon.
And let me remind my correspondent
right here that trundling the baby cart
may he the short cut to fame for him.
For in these perambulators that un
willing fathers are pushing are the in
fants who are going to be the men and
women who will do the big things of the
future. The only job by which many a
man will be remembered is that be used
to wheel some little Tommy Edison, or
Teddy Roosevelt, or Pippy Morgan
about in his go-cart.
In all good truth, the men who are
doing the most for the world are those
who are raising up nice, fat, healthy
babies babies who are going to carry
on to new heights the banner of human
achievement, and why any man should
* be ashamed of publicly announcing bis
pari in this great work passes compre
hension.
Certainly the times are out of joint,
and we have got to a place where we
take a very decadent view of things,
when a man is humilated hy being seen
on the street giving his own child an
outing, and when such a spectacle is
the subject for the gibes and mocking
of fools.
Happily, though, sensible people arc
still of the opinion that u baby is a
thing to boast of, and not to be
ashamed of, and that a young man
pushing his own baby carriage is a
more admirable spectacle than a haw-
lmw youth tugging at the leash of a
bulldog.
Hut let no one ever agsin lay the
crime of race suicide at woman's door,
since the fathers take so little interest
in their offspring that they are not
willing to be seen in public with them.
Apparently children are no longer con
sidered by their fathers ns a crown of
glory, but a sort of disgrace that they
try to keep hidden and out of sight as
far us possible.
As for my correspondent's conten
tion that it is n woman's duty to push
the perambulator, that is as may be.
To the dispassionate observer it would
soem that, inasmuch as a father is just
as much a father as u mother is a
mother, it's just ns much his business
to give the baby an airing as it is hors.
Of course, the mother is hurnessed
to the baby's go-cart most of the time.
Six days out of the seven she pushes
it ahead of her whenever she takes her
walks abroad, just as she listens to the
baby’s erying and washes and dresses
and caroB for it seven daya out of the
week: and this being the case, it ap
pears to be up to the father to take his
turn at the wheel occasionally, even if
he is mortified to death at being seen
out in the company of his own child.
My correspondent is ashamed to be
seen pushing a perambulator. I wonder
if he ever passes through the residen
tial part of the city between the hours
of in and 4 o’clock. The streets are a
baby blockade. There are hundreds of
perambulators, each containing a rosy
huhy and each baby carriage rolled by
some mother who has been told hy her
doctor that the baby must be kept in
the uir a certain number of hours.
On the shady side of the street in
Hummer, in the lee of pine sheltering
building in winter, you will find these
mothers, footsore with walking, weary
and bored to death, sweltering with
heat or shivering v» ith cold, but faith
fully and patiently sacrificing them
selves to the children, chained to the
baby's go-cart as truly as any captive
was ever chained to conqueror’s chariot
wheel of old.
And not one of tlfese women is
ashamed of her task or mortified at be
ing caught pushing the perambulator!
Funny things, women, aren’t they?

"How,” asks Engaged, “can a girl
be sure the man she loves means all ho
says?”
The cold, hard fact about it is that
she cannot. Neither can he. Solomon,
who knew a lot, said all men were liars;
and human experience in the centuries
since hasn’t produced many reasons to
change the verdict.
Not necessarily wilfull and deliberate
liars—let's givfe them that benefit. Hut
let us also be candid. A man in love
is like a man in drink—he is too in
toxicated to be responsible for all he
says.
Do you suppose there ever was a
man in love, from Adam down, who
didn't swear by all the deities that ho
would never let the woman take in
washing to support him? Yet the
washtuh supports almost as many
homes as the pick and shovel.
Circumstances change. When a fel
low gets down to earth after his emo
tional tour of the stars, he is apt to be
practical ami matter of fact. If he
remembers his ecstatic promises at all,
it is vaguely. The wise woman doesn’t
presume upon them. She just marks
off the discount to profit and loss, and
thanks her luck if there is enough left
to make the basis of a working agree
ment.
No, dear, you can't believe all that
Romeo tells you; but you can judge
him fairly well on form. Is he kind to
his old mother? Has he kept a clean
record in the responsibilites around his
present home? Has he good men
friends who believe in him and trust
him? Hack of the froth and embroi
dery of his impassioned chutter do you
, detect the rudiments of plain horse
sense? Hus he shown gumption in
tackling the business of making a
| living for two or more?
j If so, and you really love the chap,
and would be willing to pare potatoes
for him until death do you part, then
we guess it's all right.
Young William received a new diary
for a birthday present and was encour
aged by his mother to set down each
day's doings.
The first day he wrote “Got up at
j seven," and then continued to record
incidents of the day. At his mother’s
suggestion he took it to his teacher for
approval.
She criticized his first phrase. "Lion't
say 'Got up.’ William," she said. "The
sun doesn't get up: it rises.”
Upon retiring that night William re
membered his teacher's instructions,
and wrote wi,h much care in his diary:
j "Set at nine.”

Cover Crops.
To Corn Club Roys, and OtherB Who
Till the Soil: Agricultural journals and
weekly newspapers have had for weeks
past, and will have for weeks to come,
much valuable information and many
useful suggestions touching the im
provement of the soil.
Foremost among all the plans sug
gested for restoring the fertility of our
depleted bo'iIh is the use of cover crops
to protect them from leaching and los
ing their best plant food during the
winter and early spring months. You
are advised that after these cover crops
have held the soil through tjie winter
and made a growth of a foot or two in
height in the spring, they should be
turned under and incorporated with the
soij for making humus.
These suggestions are so universally
approved hy all authorities who are
competent to speak on agricultural sub
jects that they are no longer debatable.
You have reud them, and will read
them, and will doubtless concur in the
opinion that they are useful and practi
cal suggestions. Hut that is not going
far enough. Merely assenting to a
good suggestion without acting upon it
is only a start in the right direction.
Are you doing anything toward get
ting ready to cover at least a part of
your land with a cover crop during the
winter and spring months? Have you
decided which is the best to use and
what time you will flow? Have you the
seed ready for it? There is great dan
ger that if you have not taken these
necessary steps, fall may come, cotton-
picking and corn-gathering press upon
you, and make you forget all about it
until it is too late.
Get everything ready now, and be
sure to include a leguminous plant as a
part of this cover crop. Vetch, crimson
clover and In/rr clover are the standard
plants of this class for fall sowing.
Oats and rye and wheat may he sown
this fall. Belter get them now.
All corn club boyB are especially
urged to sow their acres that they have
planted in corn this year in small grain.
Do not cultivate tho same acre in corn
another year, if you can help it. If
anyone will try even one acre sown to
rye or oats and vetch in the early fall
and turn it under in the late spring and
note the change in tho soil of that acre,
he will need no further preachment
about its value as a soil-improver. It
is the cheapest fertilizer.

Maintaining .the army and navy of
the United States and the equipment
for war costs the United Stales 43 per
cent, of the total expenditures of the
nation. In other words, nearly one-half
of all the taxes paid by the people of
the country is a contribution to the war
god. Only Germany exceeds the Uni
ted States in this respect. Great Brit
ain is third, with a percentage of 34 per
cent. Japan's is 32 per cent. The cost
per unit of population varies from $1.70
per unit of population in Austria-Hun
gary to nearly $8 in Great Britain. Al
together apart from the ethical side of
the question, it must be obvious to all
thinking persons that such huge bur
dens impair the economic efficiency of
nations; and, if effect is carefully
traced back to cause, will be found
largely responsible for the social unrest
in Europe.—Macon News.

Making- Oats a Profitable Crop.
Tait Hutlnr in The ProtfrnnHivc Farmer.
A reader asks; "Do you regard oats
a profitable crop?”
The average crop of oats is not prof
itable in the South. The average yield
pel acre in the South Atlantic States |
for the past 45 years has been around
15 bushels. In the South Centrul States,
during the some time, the yield has
been around 20 bushels per acre. With
Kentucky, Texas and Oklahoma exclu
ded, the yield in these South Central
States has not been more than two
bushels per acre better than in the
South Atlantic States. These are not
profitable crops; but, for that matter,
the average crops of cotton, about 180
pound per acre, and of corn, 15 to 20 j
bushels per acre, are not profitable.
This merely means that the average:
Southern larmer does not produce prof-1
itablo yields of crops, but it has no
bearing on the question as to whether !
the Southern farmer should grow oats. |
I believe the oat crop could and should [
be made profitable on Southern farms. |
Generally, oats have been sowed on the
poorest lands and not given that intelli
gent consideration necessary to make
any crop profitable. Moreover, spring-
sowed oats or those sowed late in the
fall do not yield as well as those sowed
in October. The greatest difficulty with
the fall-sowed oats is winter-killing,
but, except in the Southeast, little has
been done to overcome that difficulty.
The. advantages of the oat crop are
that it furnishes a good cover for the
land during our open winters; furnishes
some green feed during the late fall,
winter and early spring; makes an ex
cellent feed for all farm livestock,
and is off the land in time to permit of
making a crop of peanuts, cowpeas, soy
beans or lespedeza the same season.
When oats are sowed in the fall, on
good land, well-prepared, fertilized
properly, and put in by the open-fur
row method, so as to prevent injury by
freezing, they are a profitable crop.
As to whether the crop is profitable de
pends most largely on the yield, and
this depends largely on the man and
the land.
The Twenty Year Test.
"Some twenty years ago I used
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diar-
rhoho Remedy,” writes Geo. W. Brock,
publisher of the Enterprise, Aberdeen,
Md. “I discovered that it was a quick
and safe cure for diarrhoea. Bince
then no one can sell me anything said
to be ‘just as good.’ During all these
years 1 have used it and recommended
it many times, and it has never disap
pointed anyone.” For sale by all

Pat was showing his freshly-landed
friend through New York, and the
sights were pointed out to the new
comer with the pride of one thoroughly
at home in tho land. Finally they paused
in front of Trinity church, at the head
of Wall street, and while the ancient
graveyard was being explored, Casey,
the newcomer, looked up at the tower
a moment and then turned to his friend.
"Tell me, Pat,” he said, "why does
the bell ring at this time of day?” Pat
studied the question a moment, and
then sbserved: “ 'Tis my idea there’s
some wan pullin' th’ rope.”
DON’T TAKE CAL0MEL-
HERE’S A BETTER REMEDY
Taking calomel is mighty risky and
often times dangerous.
You ought to get along without tak
ing calomel yourself or giving it to your
family, when you can get a remedy
that takes it place. Dodson’s Liver
Tone is an agreeable vegetable liquid
that starts the liver to action just as
surely as calomel does. But, unlike
calomel, Dodson's Liver Tone does not
stimulate the liver too much, It gives
relief gently. Calomel acts so strongly
that it may leave you worse than you
were at first, and calomel also some
times causes salivation. Dodson’s Liver
Tone works well and never harms.
A large bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone
is sold for fifty cents by John R. Cates
Drug Co. It always has given such
perfect satisfaction that your money
will be given back to you with a smile
if you buy a bottle and are not perfect
ly satisfied with it in ev°ry way.

Came to Rescue.
Catron, Ky.—In an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: “1 suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, 1 could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all. At times, 1 would have severe pains
in my left side.
The doctor was called in, and his treat
ment relieved me for a while, but I was
soon confined to my bed again. After
that, nothing seemed to do me any good.
OMETHING NEW
I had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
Atiast, my husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.”
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will recom
mend it. Begin taking Cardui today.
