WAS A “REGULAR GUY” ‘Clothed In Male Attire She Gets Job ' on Hlinols Farm and Whips About Every Boy In the VI- cinity. + Chicago.—Residents of Dixon, Il fwill be surprised to know that that fhandsome young fellow who was quite the rage there a while back, who danced so nicely with the girls and ‘was the pet of mothers, is & girl The sedate citizens of Serene, T, will be shocked to know thiat the young fellow who got a job on & farm near by and “whipped,” one by one, about @very boy in the vicinity is a girl, : Down in Ottawa it was much the same. Miss Anna Bahl's career as a boy mtarted about two years ago when, at seventeen, she chopped off her long halr ‘and put on boy’s clothes. Her first job was with the Western Union in Chicago, where she ran mes- sages. She took the name of Jack Kriegner and learned to 'shoot craps, play billiards, ball, dance with the girls and. otherwise qualify as a ‘“regular guy.” She got along fine. Seeks Varied Flelds. Finally, seeking new fields, she drift. ed to. Ottaws, NI, She worked on & farm: for three weeks. From there she went to Serene, where, she sdmite, she knocked. the meretifty out of things, Some -of:the boys ebjected .to the! populerity of the “new feller with the city ways™ Though she weighs only 117 pounds’| and s but five feet tall, she knocked their objections into e cocked hat.

HMere “Jack” got a Job as bellhop and watcher ot the telephone switch- Bverybody liked “Jack” he was 80 quick and kind. “He"” was still a “regular fellow.” “His” technique with a cigarette was convincing. “He" could, if occasion arose, turm a mneat little swear word. Maybe It Wae the Draft. Tp around Wilson avenue ‘he” shut s wicked cue ball or raked in the pot with the best whéa “he” made a pass. Wall, these are technfcal times. Pos- sibly it was the draft. Up at the Dar- lington, which was “Bis” Waterloo, they abeelutely won't talk, they say. “Have a heart,” sajd the manager last night. Anyway, very segretly, ber case passed through the’ hands of Judge Mary Bartelme and the yeung lady, “Jack," went out to ®igin voluntarily. 8he was placed under observation. She rather hated it whep they insisted on having her trousers and her cigarettes. “Perfectly sane,” was the verdict | & yesterday, the observation ended. “But you must go out of here dressed ag a girl,” she was told. To this she replied: 0 “Honest, now. I just can't wear om.” PRETTY GIRL IN BAD TANGLE Accused of Having Too Many Hus bands and Also of Poleoning Her Grandfather, Rome, Ga.~Pretty Mrs. Pear! Rus sell’s affalrs are in a decidely tangled condition. Following a grand jury in- vestigation of the poisoning of her grandfather, she Is held pending action jof the grand jury. Further investiga- tion indicates she may be a bigamist, Her first busband enlisted and is in France. His name is Jerry Hughes. After his departure she married Ches- ter Russell after a three days' ac qualntance. They soon quarreled. Russell was first arrested in connec- tion with the poisoning, but it iy sow Raligyed he will be relesscd. Note the Difference in the Root Growth, or “Humus Forming” Material. “The way to grow big crops, is to grow big crops,” sald a prominent agri- culturist recently. What did he mean? He was simply expressing ifn a rather unusual way, the well known principle that a big crop leaves more humus—more plant residue—in the soll, than does a small crop, and there- fore leaves the soil in better condition to produce the succeeding crop. This fact is particularly noticeable in the case of the grass crop. A small' grass plant, of course, has small roots; but Unfertilized Sod i sometimes we do not realize that & bigger grass plant has bigger roots and therefore leaves a larger amount of humus making material in the ground when the Sod is plowed under. At the Cornell, New York, experl- ment station it was found that a heavy god, produced by top dressing with fertilizer, increased the organic mat- Make the P ter of theysoll as much as if seven tons of manwre had been added. . The same effect is produced with corn, wheat, oats and other staple farm crope. In fact, in many sections it has been found desirable to de- pend almost entirely upon plant resi- dues to furnish the needed soil humus. ‘Where manure supplies are insufficient —as iz usually the case—humus can be maintained and even increased by the full utilization of crop residues, pro- vided big crops are grown. Fertilizer anéd humus-producing crops make 8 Fertilized Syd combingtion which will produce big crops indéfinitely. Probably this is the reason why, in other work of this ex- perlinent station, corn growm on ® - timothy sod which had been top-dressed the previous season gave a yleld 26 bushels per acre larger than éorn grown on the timothy sod which had received no top dressing. Mother’s Health affects ' the whole family When mother is feeiing “out of sorts” the home life is “out of tune.” When suffering from headache, or any of the various ailments causedby constipation she is obliged to neglect her ‘home duties.

The Ploneer Want Ads Bring Results ennies *Bi’gger When James Buchanan was President and tall beaver hats were in vogue; when gentlemen wore broad cravats and-ladies were hoop skirts the pennies they tossed to children were as big as quarters. But the cart-wheel coppers your grandfather got for keeping his lace collar clean were not as big in buying power as the pennies of today. A penny then might buy a to multiply opportunities and in- creased the spending size of our pastry, or ten of them take one to the fair, but your great-aunt and great-uncle couldn’t have gone to a movie at any price. Your great-grandfather may “have driven the fastest horse in the country and paid a tidy sum forit. But the price of a stable of thoroughbreds would not have bought him a fliver. Sixty years ago the ladies could go shopping for dry goods and buy silks that would make you green with envy, linens that were linens and broadcloths that beg- gar description. But what their favorite store did not have they usually got along without. You can pick up your daily newspaper and in fifteen minutes you can know what the different shops are offering in fabrics, pat- terns, varieties and qualities that great-grandmother never dream- ed could be gathered together under any conditions. Times have changed, and so have merchandise and business methods. One of the influences that has helped to bring about so much of change, that has helped - pennies is advertising. Every merchant, every manu- ' facturer knows that advertising materially reduces selling costs by increasing the demand for and the distribution of the products of hundreds of thousands of mills. Indeed many of the things we count today as necessities or sim- ple luxuries could not be made and sold at their reasonable prices except as advertising has created a broad market for them, making millions of sales at little prices and little profits. And so you owe very much to advertising. You owe much to the people of yesterday who have read and been influenced by past advertising and so have made possible the economies and va- rieties and wide distribution of merchandise that you enjoy. -You owe present advertising a thorough reading. A greater familiarity with advertising, with advertisers and advertised mer- chandise makes continually, for the increasing size of your pen- nies. BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL DOCTORS DR. L. A.
