Practically every farm in this country would show a nice profit if the above ex- pressed idea could be and was carried out with all its possibilities. The great farm problems of today are many. Good fences and lots of them go a long toward solving the question of bigger profits. Then why not get in line and buy your fence from home people, who treat you right and ap- Preciate your business.

She knew it, to, and gave her- self a little satisfied shake before she rang the bell, "Is Mrs. Gorman at home?” she in- quired languidly of the pink-cheeked girl who opened the door. Then with an air of great surprise at the an- 8wer she drew back the card she was tendering the supposed maid and smiled genially, “How stupid of me,” she sald, “not to realize that you are Mrs. Gorman, and not the maid! Of course, you can't keep a maid in a tiny, five-room flat! I am Clara Belfuss, and be- ing such an old friend of your hus- band's I wanted to call right away, and not wait for your at-home date. I knew you wouldn't mind “I think an athome date is only a form, anyhow, unless people are re- ally in society, don't you? Oh, my, don't apologize because you are not settled yet—I know it won't look so bare and queer after you've bought a few more things, “You're going to have Arabian lace curtains, you say? Oh, my dear— forgive me for interfering, but perhaps you don't know that Arabian lace is entirely out! You must have filet! Here in the city we have to be ter ribly up to date! That's one reason why I always was so fond of Tom— he is such an up-to-date man. He al- ways wanted the very latest in every- thing—so you can imagine our sur- prise when we learned he was to marry a girl from a small town, 1 suppose you were such a contrast—a delightful contrast, of course—to what he always had been used to! “I've always felt that perhaps it Tom hadn't so insisted on style it would have been better for him. He would make gnore progress in the busi- ness world, I ' mean. I've always taken an interest in his career, because I rather helped him on socially—intro- duced him around, you know, and got him started. He was so diffident and awkward at first, poor boy. He was too | grateful to me, 1 thought, especially when he—dear me, how I ramble on! “I expect Tom will find it very hard to settle down into & stald married man now. Of course, on his salary he can't entertain and do things, now that he {s married. How fortunate for him that he married a girl used to a simple life! That was what I always advised him to do when—you know, Tom came to me with all his troubles, and a man certainly does "learn to depend on & girl when he gets the habit of doing that! “I used to say to him: 'Tom, what on earth will you do when I get mar- ried and haven't any time for you.' But he was always 8o broken up at the idea that I had to stop teasing him. 1 don't believe in letting a man think there is a chance that you may care for him when you know you never could in the world! I've always had my ideal of a man and he has to be very brilllant and clever and keen and terribly successful—an ex- traordinary man, in fact. I never could be satisfied with anything less. I am different from most girls in that— with them it is anything to get mar- ried!
