Pittsburgh retail coalyard who after working for one employer for 50 years was called into the office. His employer said, “Jack, you have been with us for 50 years. liere is a purse of Five Hundred Dollars. a gold watch, suitably engraved stat- ing your 50 years of faithful service, and beginning with tomorrow morn- ing your pay will go on as before. but you will not have to report for. work anymore." The employee replied, "I am tak- ing the purse and the watch. but I'll be here for work tomorrow morning just the same." ‘Ib be able to retire is the goal od many men. But stopping all physical and mental work is a mis- take. Titus this coalyard employee knew that While working was not the pleasantcst thing in the world. not being able to meet his fellow employees and others every day would make life dull indeed. Other considerations are the irregularity of the retired way of living as to food, rest and exercise. There ia indigestion, constipation, and usu- ally loss of desire for food .ln cases of businessmen whose physical work is light but whose responsibili- ties are heavy, the blood pressure often is high. Frequently. the suggestion is to retire, so they may take things easy, and have less responsibility. It is known that rest of mind and body is the first thought in the treatment of high blood pressure. Q. Who should precede when a man and a woman are entering a restaurant. and no waiter is around? A. The man should precede and choose the table. If a waiter is present to assign the table, the woman should follow the waiter, the man last. Q.

To Aldorlu it came, into a feminine peace and serenity of surroundings, which might remind one of a lea upon which ships lay bccalmed, lying idly there on a mirrored, placid surface. And not anxious for a present breeze to arise to stir their sails, but rather enjoying the strange environment, reveliing in the stillness in which they were for the time h d. "We'll have to pinch ourselves soon to be sure we're alive," Jeanie laughed today. when we were untroubled by any dinner preparations, the chore of these falling to Karolyn. closer to the scenes of the reaping. one Steak, l0 good when it is deliv- ered from pan to plate, was the fare, with accompanying vegetables of which now there is a wide sel- ection on farms, and for dessert an ppple pie, the remembrance of which still lingers pleasantly in James’ memory, I-le spoke of it when awaiting his bed-time snack he relaxed in the comfort of his old armchair. “Yes", he said, with a subtle challenge in his words, "for a pie—it was hard to beat!" He had as well for us, tidings of the children there, of Jamie off to the second year of his schooling now, still much interested in his studies, and of Gage the younger fellow a busy lad, but extremely good. "He's the happiest boy, you could see, Ellen, and you don't hear a whimper r-f crying out of him, unless he gets a hurt. And he's willing and quick. "These vir- tues will endear him to his grand- father. A whining child is among James‘ major annoyances, and n dis-interested, lazy person, on or off a farm has none of his sym- pathy. O O O "Now don't you fret-we'll come alive one of these times!" we laughed to Jeanie, “we'd better en- joy this calm while we have it." In any respite from our cleaning or meal-getting, we get caught up with our reading, and are also able to ioitcr over many another de- light, which includes periods of idling, we must put out of mind during the busier spells of farm work. We were drinking tea out of our prettiest cup, enjoying a leisurely supper, and watching the shadows steal into the depths of the valley, when the van of the harvest procession came to the yard. At Aideriea, at such a time, the women stop mid-way in a bite, and at once come to lend at least their moral support to the en- deavor at hand. O I l Soon the binder turned into a near field that was "white unto harvest", and we stood spell-bound presently to lee the miracle of first sheaves being released from the machine. Granddaughter fol- lowed the stookers on their rounds coming happy and weary and with tousied curls through the soft twi- light to home. And we came to gather an early sheaf to carry it to the fowls. We picked it up reverently, grateful for the bounty that had returned us "an hundred fold" from our seeding, for dew and sun and shower that had bles- sed the grain-fields to assure us of plenty for the stock throughout the colder seasons ‘to come, O And so amid crickets tuning. stocks in a first reaping run in orderly rows along a near field at dusk. "At the rate we've been cutting lately," James observed as we sat down then to the milking, "another fine day should make quite a dent in the rest of it. We really should be into the thresh- ing now-it's a pity to be losing these lovely days." We milked in the dirnness, though soon the glory of the moonlight shone in at an open window to make light of the dark—to pick out the cows in their stalls beneath old cobwebby beams, and granddaughter, never more angelic than when she approaches her bed-time, seated on a low stool, the cats and pups clustered about the drink-pan at her feet. a - a Tomatoes of Jeanie’; planting reddened on a vine today and u cauliflower, pure of heart, urged the women-kind at Alderiea to rise up and commence the pickling season.

MISS DIX: My husband and I have been married eight years and have always got along splendidly, with one exception. I-le let aside one room for his den for his exclusive use. I have no ob- jectlon to this, but to the way he keeps it. He doesn't. want me to clean it up or even touch a thing in it, Everybody who comes to the house goes in this room and it mortifies me. I like to keep my house nice. Is there any suggestion you could offer me? I see no occasion for this mess, but when I remonstrate with my husband, we quarrel. ALICE ANSWER: I have one suggestion to make you, Alice, and I trust that you will follow it. Let your husband's room alone. Keep out of it. Don't dust it. Don't straighten things up. It is his taste and his idea of comfort, and, if he gets any fun out of it. he has a right to it. You've got all the balance of the house that you can scrub and vacuum-clean until it shines. Why begrudge your hus- band the priviiege of having things as he desires in one poor little room? It seems to me that you are borrowing trouble when you are worrying over what other people think about the mess. Evidently it doesn't get on their nerves; otherwise they wouldn't gravitate there. as we all instinctively do to the most comfortable part of a home. Did you ever think, Alice, that one of the reasons why ‘there are so many wandering husbands is that there are IBW men Wllh Wives who let them do as they please at home, or who ever let them even have a closet for their own benefit? Sometimes, a wife will concede her husband a den, but invariably it ends by her moving her sewing machine into it, or the baby's crib, or taking it for her cord games. and she always feels that she has the right to furnish it and run it as she pleases. Many a man has to watch his step from the time he wipes his feet on the mat in front of his own door. I-le mustn't lie down on n couch, no mutter how tired he is, because he will muss the pillows. He mustn't drop ashes on the rug and scatter newspapers. He mustn't throw a towel on the bathroom floor. He mustn't sit around in slip- pers, no matter how his feet ache. I-Ie mustn't turn on the radio if wife doesn't ilvant to hear it or listen to any program that isn't to her taste. Before marriage he may have been a collector of butterflies or coins or old prints. After marriage he never sees them again because wife has relegated the trash to the attic, where he can't get at it. He can't spend an evening going over his fishing tackle because it messes things up. He can't make a noise because it wakes the baby. He can't sit in the living room after the children are adolescent, be- cause Mamie's boy friend 15 calling or Bobby is entertaining the Scouts. The house belongs to the wife and children and poor old hus- band has nothing to do with it except support it. And there is no- he gets mighty little for his money. Many a woman, Alice, sweeps DEAR DOROTHY DIX: ried a widower of middle age. abroad for the last five years. He body in it mean enough to do him reverence. It is no wonder that he sometimes gets iired- of it and thinks that a good husband out of the door in her zeal for cleanliness. Put that in your cigarette and smoke it. DOROTHY DIX I am a young woman who recently mar- has a son who has been studying Four months ago this boy, two years my junior, came home to live and we have fallen very deeply in love (Continued on Page B) A Country Garden By Mrs. Gordon Macmillan We cherish these September days in the garden, knowing they will too soon give way to colder days and frost, so every sunny morning We are happy in the thought of another day of beauty in the garden. There are many lovely flowers to enjoy. Annuals of all kinds at their best. Dahlia; with fresh green foliage and bright blooms. Glads in many colors and tuberons Begonias still lovely after four months of blooming, Fuchsia plants covered with bright flowers, Frlgidias, Hibiscus and Chrysanthemums and Michael- mas, Daisies Jtlit beginning, and they will bloom all through Octo- ger and perhaps some of Novem- er. It is possible to have a very lovely autumn garden of these hardy Asters, and Hybridistl have improved their quality in the last few years. In England they are used a great deal in separate gar- dens of Asters only. l l O Climax is an old variety and one of the best that I have in laven- der blue flowers very free and good as a cut flower, and a very tall strong growing rosy pink with individual florets about two inches in diameter. I have forgotten the name, but now have many plants divided from the original plant- ed several years ago. The bees love this Aster and with its gold- en stamens it is the latest bloom- ing perennial in the border. There are many cushion type hardy Ast- ers suitable for edging and they do not exceed one foot in height, they are covered with bloom from September on and are perfectly hardy. England and Oregon, U’. S. A.. have originated many new Asters and I think I must. try some new ones next year. They come in all shades of blues and msuves; also pink and‘ white. When mowing the lawns the other evening I was thinking that I had never remembered a better season for grass, no bare patch" and weeds, but loft 8f!!!" 5"“ gran and no matter how fine ner- ennlai borders and rock gardens can be, if the lawn is brown and miserable, your garden looks a wreck, I keep cutting the gran through October or aa long as it grows.

Fevcrfew and Coreoplis are do- ing the lame and the yellow of the Coreopals looks very well with had them grow better. Pansies and Violas lend them- selves to this treatment and with some rich compost worked in around them are now large mounds covered with bloom. I have also transplanted many more seedling Violas and am amaz- ed at the number I have from my own seed saved this Summer. The hybrid perpetual rose Capt. Hayward is giving us lovely large ffflgrlmt blooms nfter being severe- ly pruned after its blooming sea- son the first of July. If your earth is rich with humus I do not think it harms any perennial to bloom again in one season. o n a Every time I plant anything in ‘he 85rd"! 1 Bivc the soil a. dress- lns of compost and this is in ad- dition to the top dressing given in the fall.

Astibie comes in white feathery blooms and also in soft pinks, rose and red.
