O ne of P le asan t Fe atu res of Country Home.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The remodeled living room In Mrs.
Hoop’s country home In Montgomery
county. Va., Is one of the pleasantest
features of the house, and one of tin*
most successful changes Mrs. Hoop e f
fected. After consulting with the home
demonstration agent, It was decided
that a boxed In stairway could be en
tlrely removed from between the door
and the window In the left-hand cor
ner, and also a partition between tills
room and a narrow hall, since anothei
staircase was used for getting up
stairs. As a result the room became
much better proportioned nnd Im
proved In every way. The fireplace
was restored and repaired, the walls
floor and woodwork were refinlshed,
and selected pieces of furniture were
retained and done over. Several cro
cheted rag rugs were made for the
floors.
By the advice of the home dem
onstration agent, who was Interested
In encouraging home Improvement
throughout the county, several other
substantial changes were made In
Mrs. Hoop's home at the same time.
A parlor was done over for a daytime
sitting room, and made to open on a
porch converted Into a sunroom. Up
stairs the space above the porch was
taken for a nursery, bathroom and en
closed sleeping porch. The bathroom
was made possible by the Installation
on the outside o f the house of a water
tank which could be filled by a ram
at a spring at the foot of the hill, and
also from the roof by gutters.
The kitchen, ns well as the living
room, parlor and bathroom, came In
for Its share of attention In the gen
eral doing over of the house. While
it Is not always possible to put Into
effect such extensive changes as Mrs.
Hoop’s, almost any of these Improve
ments will contribute to the Increased
comfort nnd well-being of the family.
ONION REMAINS
Hot Puddings for Cold
FOOD FAVORITE
Days Always Popular
Has Ever Been Highly Es
teemed as Article of Food.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
From the earliest times of which we
have authentic records the onion has
been highly esteemed as an article of
food. In desert regions It was early
used also ns a preventive of (hirst by
travelers and soldiers on the march
The original home of the plant, of
which there nre many varieties, was
probably southern Asln or the bor
ders of the Mediterranean sea.
Egyptians cultivated the onion at
the dawn of their history, according to
W. R. Beattie, of the United States
Department of Agriculture, nnd now
the Egyptians offer competition to the
Texas producers of winter-grown Ber
muda onions.
The onion, says Mr. Beattie, belongs
to a widely variable species, Allium
cepa, which forms a pnrt of the bo
tanical family of plants which In
cludes many of the lilies, the several
forms of asparagus and smilax, nnd
slmilnr plants with a scaly or fleshy
enlarged root. A characteristic of this
family Is that most o f Us species
grow naturally upon soil having an
abundance of moisture, many of them
being natives o f low-lying areas along
the seashore. Another characteristic
o f plants like the onion and aspara
gus Is that they will withstand con
slderable salt In the soils on which
they grow. Conditions favorable to
onion culture are found In many sec
tions of the United States and the
crop Is widely grown.
Good prices for onions one year are
likely to stimulate heavy production
the next year. This Is true not only
because commercial growers expand
their acreage but also because good
prices will lead many Individuals to
plant onions In small patches or home
gardens that supply more than the
needs of the growers and so enter the
local markets In competition with the
field grown crop. Onions demand In
tensive culture, which makes them
particularly adaptable for truck pntoh
and back-lot cultures. In which the
grower can cultivate and weed them
In the time outside his usunl hours of
employment The average yield of
an acre o f onions Is about 200 bush
els, but on soils that are suitable nnd
fertile good cultivation often results
In yields of from 400 to 000 bushels

One of the speaker’s chief points
concerned the modern, common-sense
style o f woman's dress.
“ Do you know," she cried to her
audience, who were nearly all of her
own sex, “ that our present style of
sensible clothing has reduced acci
dents on trams, trains, and busses by
at least 50 per cent?”
She paused to let this sink In. It

DR. CALDWELL’S
THREE RULES
Dr. Caldwell watched the results of
constipation for 47 years, and believed
that no matter how careful people are
of their health, diet and exercise, con
stipation will occur from time to time.
Of next importance, then, is how to treat
It when it cornea. Dr. Caldwell alwaya
was in favor of getting aa close to nature
aa possible, hence hie remedy for consti
pation is a mild vegetable compound. It
can not harm the most delicate system
and is not habit forming.
The Doctor never did approve of dras-
tic physics and purges. He aid not believe
they were good for human beings to put
into their system. Use Syrup Pepsin for
yourself and members of the family in
constipation, biliousness, sour and crampv
stomach, bad breath, no appetite, head
aches, and to break up fevers and colds.
Get a bottle today, at any drugstore and
observe these three rules of health : Keep
the head cool, the feet warm, the bowels
open. For a free trial bottle, just write
