he has failed to take advantage
of any of them. He worked a-|

to the crack of the Republican1
whip in congress and ignored !

SOME REASONS WHY
It pays the Farmer to have a Telephone
The dollars saved keeping in touch with tne markets
will pay the price many fold. In case of an emergen-
cy when a doctor or neighbor is needed, life or prop-
erty may be saved. The telephone has done away
with the old time isolation that handicapped social
life in the country and drove poung people to the city

ovur civilization ever since man-
kind pulled off gee-strings and
put on clothes. Like the meas-
les and itch, they run their
course, and if the patient don't
die thev get over it. The Purit-
ans lett the old world because
they claimed they were
denied all liberty. Reaching
this country, where every man
was free, it wasn't long until
they had put in operation a lot of
laws that no decent man could
live under. We have thousands
of men in the Tinted States to-
day who would be glad to see
the Blue Laws that once stood
upon the statute books of Con-
necticut enforced all over this
iountry. This class of people
.always want to christianize the
natural and beautiful spontanei-
ty of their fellowship by teasing
them about sweethearts is cruel
j almost to the point of barbarity.
It puts into their heads thoughts
that have no place there, rend-
ering them constrained and
selfeonscious in the presence of
one another, and is largely re-
sponsible for those pitiable and
grotesque abnormalities all too
common among us—little wo-
men in short dresses and little
men 111 knee trousers. Why can
we not allow them to be just
natural boys and girls, and to
maintain toward each other that
free and unaffected attitude
which is at once so beautiful
and so helpful!
