Intentions Your husband Is In Mex ico I believe Yes Ho wants nie to join him there but I havent any idea o do ing so This country suits me very well There are conditions under which this can be a most delightful coun try I have found It so during the past few months Mrs Weston has her mother with her I believe Yes Do you stray out this way very often I havent been doing so but I think I shall in the future I cant understand why more people do not take tramps through the country Think of the thousands of men and women who might be breathing the fresh pure air and looking at the green fields and feeling the sod under their feet out hero now if they cared to Im rather rlad though that they are leaving this for our exclusive use at present Perhaps It was the fresh smooth breeze that made her smooth cheeks so red How much there is in the point of view she said smiling just enough to show the edges of her -white teeth To me that thorn tree by the fence is beautiful but I suppose the farmer who owns it would be glad If some night it should mysteriously disappear Very likely he would Its the old story of familiarity You admire the thorn tree with its flaring top be cause you live where such things are not The caantry boy longs to live in the crowded smoky city The man who is cooped up in an office sighs for the open fields And the man who is married would be happy if he could have sin gle blessedness again Only the man He is more likely to I think But he wouldnt e if conditions were equal How do you mean if society permitted women to have the same liberties men enjoy if women could be as sure as men are that they might try it again in case they cared to the longing would be just as widespread among them as it is among the men Perhaps The whole trouble with our social system is that it makes no provision for the cure of familiarity If women managed to be a little elusive I think love would last much longer than it does And if men were as chivalrous after they are married as they are before what a splendid change there would be in the world But you wouldnt be- happy if your husband exhibited gallantry merely because it was the fashion for hus cands to treat their wives with knight ly consfderation You would wish to know that his chivalrous treatment of you was prompted by love Certainly Still your argument of familiarity might come in there again I should become very weary of gal lantry that never gave itself a rest BufT you remember what I said about elusiveness There should be elusiveness on the mans part as well as on the womans1 I dont believe it will ever be nec essary for anybody to worry about a lack of elusiveness on the part of the men t I can imagine conditions under which it would be difficult for me to be elusive You only think so If the con ditions were present you would soon become as weary of them as you are of the Conditions that exist I didnt say that Bujt you thought it No If the fates had permitted us How beautiful those crab apple blossoms are Can you imagine any thing more lovely Yes I can at this moment see something more lovely than I wonder if the farmer would care if you broke off one of the branches for me I dont care whether he cares or not Which one would you like Of course the most splendid one is at the top But you mustnt climb the tree You never could get up through that tangle of thorns with out hurting yourself And you might fall When he had secured the highest branch for her he said Now that you have them I sup pose you will not care for them I am not a man she replied put

the same as we hang up the car casses of pigs The flesh is white White Yes like veal The Chinese raise chows for food and feed them only soft washy stuff mashed vegetables and bread and milk No meat

Editor Dear Sir I came to this country from the State of Wisconsin three years ago and must say that I am greatly pleased with the outlook in this western coun try For my own part I am entirely

We had a splendid garden this year ripening successfully tomatoes musk melons water melons sweet corn and kindred sorts The country is well adapted to wheat growing and mixed farming and to my mind it

HEALTH OF WOMEN In this nineteenth century to keep up with the march of progress every power of woman is strained to its utmost and tho tax upon her physi cal system is far greater than ever In the

drugs Lydia E Pinkhams Vegetable Compound is an honest tried and true remedy of unquestionable therapeutic value This medicine made from native roots and herbs contains no narcotics or other harmful drugs and today holds the record for the largestnumbcr of actual cures of female diseases of any medicine tho world has ever known and thousands of voluntary testimonials aro on file in tho laboratory
