WORK THAT GOES AWRY.
ana Thing that Disturb tha Household
Happiness.
Every hoitflcltccpcr known that it It
Dot tho steady routine work which
goes on day after day, with variations
of incidental company and incidental
extra work of various kinds, that
breaks down the health and temper.
In tho harmonious home, and thcra
re thousands of such happy homes
throughout tho land, each member of
tho family contributes u sliuru uf work
to the comploto whole.
The things that exhaust the patience
nnd leave a powerful impress finally,
like drops of water on -tho hard rock,
wearing out nervous strength and pa
tience, are tho" unexpected. There
seems to bo certain individuals so con
stituted that they can not conform to
the routine ways of any home. They
Invariably tangle up tho work by go
ing on in an individual way of
their own, rcgnrdlcss of the con
venience of all other members of tho
household. Tho hour for breakfast
may be hottlcd for all the rest, but not
for them. In all sorts of unexpected
ways they manage to Interfere with
the routine of tilings, and actually
make double work for overyonu else
There aro some housekeepers who
have no idea of system, who aro hard,
drudging workers, forever cleaning
and grubbing over floors nnd pantries
that ought to bo kept clean. Hustle
Bnd noise art) not.rmrts of n irnod hnuso
eepcrswork. '1 lie wheels of motion
In a well-kept house move so nolslcssly
that no one is nwaro that there is a
system in all that goes on, unless it be
by the sense of quiet and peace pro
vailing over everything. It Is
Jnst this quiet atmosphere which
the undisciplined person falls to
appreciate. Yet there can be no
home without serious breaks in
omfort where there is no thorough
iBYitcm, disguised though it maybe;
ad tha ignorant person wonders why
verythlng seems to bo in perfect order
without say display of extraordinary
work. The reason is that the work U
11 done at as appointed time, and aa
extra effort Is made if there is to be
extra work.
The housekeeper who is systematic
foes aot attempt to do more than she
an. She refuses to do unnecessary
work which she is sure can not be ac
complished without hurry and confu
Ion, and which will put back neces
sary work. It requires cool judgment
to estimate this, and some independ
ence to accomplish It. When every
other woman In the village has joined
new society, It seems churlish to re
fuse to do so, yet the systematic house
keeper must sometimes refuse if It In
terferes with necessary work nt home.
In general It will be found that she
does moro for the church and for tho
other objects in tho vlllugo because
her time is so arranged that bho has
more to spare.
The family Hewlng-busket la not al
lowed to got beyond hor needle. The
old maxim, "A stitch In time saves
nine," Is carefully heeded, and the
mending is lessened. Tho systematic
woman keeps nu account-book and
knows to a penny what t ho expendi
tures are, and she docs not go beyond
them. She Is not subject to untoward
accidents, like the upsetting of lamps,
the overturning of china, and thoso va
rious mishups that try tho patience, be
cause she Iscareful. The whole socret of
her system lies In her care of little
things. And because of this very care
ahe Is saved much of tho labor of more
negligent women.
Nothing is so wearisome and so wear
ing to the nervous system as the irrita
tion arising from want of system aud
general haphazard methods of house
keeping. It is truth, not Action, that
Indolent people always work the
hardest. They never find what they
are in search of. They make all man
ner of work which of necessity they
are compelcd to take care of. N. Y.

reported by the state observer at Lin

less than 1 degree in most parts of the
state. Tho maximum tcinperattiro of
tho week were generally about 00 de
grees. Tho rainfall of thu week has been
normal or above in most sections. It
has beon deficient, howover, in the ex
treino southeastern corner and in parts
of tho western portion of tho stato.
Tho past wook has bctn an oxcellcnt
one for the growth of yegctntiun in nil
except a few northwestern counties,
whero lack of rain has caused consider
able damago to small grain and retard
ed tho growth of grass. Tho heavy
rainfall of tho past few weeks has been
very favorablo for small grain. Whoat
has improved in condition. Winter
wheat has filled well, and, while tho
crop is small the quality is good; har
vesting has commenced in southern
counties. Oats havo continued to im
prove, nnd now promises rather moro
than an average crop. Corn has grown
very rapidly during tho week, and cul
tivation has made .good progress in
most counties. Considerable corn has
been laid by in southern counties free
of weeds nnd in unusually promising
condition. Corn in all parts of tho

TRACTION ENGINE
Nothing thst helps to make a perfect ro.id and thresher engine has
been left out or slighted in the construction of the Nichols-Shtpard

experience could suggest to add to its effectiveness, power, durability
and safety from explosion and fire. Ihe boiler is of the very best selected
steel, thoroughly well made and provided with every approved safety
appliance. The fire-box is surrounded by water top, bottom and sides.
The draft-damper is so made that sparks aud ashe3 can't drop out, and
the smoke-stack is fitted with patent bonnet and spark-arrester. Every
part is strong, durable and is thoroughly tested.
Detailed descriptions and many illustrations of the Nichols-Shepard
