SAYS WOMEN OF TODAY HAVE FALLEN FROM PEDESTAL Dear Miss Grey: So much has been said of the present unrest of the country generally, and several reasons have been put farth as explanation for it.. I think the main reason | for the present unrest is the woman stepping from her proper} Sphere down to the man’s level. This statement, upon first thought, may seem far fetched, I am convinced it is true, nevertheless. The woman of today, barring a very, wary few, has, hy -her actions, been the cause for men in general gradually losing their respect for women. Generally speaking, the woman gone down to the man’s level in actions, habits, dress and manner of speech. Everything about a woman today is spoken of ‘as| tgggte Hat if iif i Hi § 5 fayh. see not for | i £ 1 sidered “smart” by other} AT do YOU If there is anything a man wishes; difference between the man's rough | fet tm the befler on wash day, and king, the woman’ of today has |™0Sst apprectted Thanking you, Men's respect.

Even if your garden has beed well ma nured, it will pay to feed the ontons with nitrate of soda oo casonally during the growing seagon and to mix a little phos- phate in the ofl at planting time. Considering the high price of onions last season, no doubt this ts one crop which every am ateur will want to grow this year.
