It's easy .to tell "who's who" among the women you see in a crowd— especially women between 35 alld 45. Women between 35 and 45 invariably show the result of their home labor. Those who organize and dominate their work retain . their youthful figures, bright eyes and young faces. Tirt>se whose work dominates them carry the story about with , them. Yes it easy to tell Who's Who. And among -those who are 'not made slaves by their work you will find scarcely a woman who has the washing done at borne They send it to the Troy Laundry. Why?'

bred young pig to marketable size In ' Jjal/ the time required by a "scrub," | and the amount of feed both consume ; per day Is practically the snme. Before the days of efficient hoc ! hpuses. a fanner considered himself f luckv if half the Utter was brought to maturity. Young pigs are subject tfl,| man.' diseases and have little stamina to withstand thein. Pneumonia Is one of them. T&e pigs that were littered | In the early spring and, were not housed In weather-proof, well-ventl- I and warm quarters "hnd nnd still | have little chance of reaching maturity. It was with these facts In mind that ' the modern hog house was designed. I And In passing It might be said that I type of. fnrm building lias been | given more attention In the agricultural collates than hog houses. The fflodern hog house Is a "well constructed bull ding. It usually. Is sot on h concrete foundation, with a- concrete floor. The side walls are weath-er-tight, and the roof Is. designed so that a maximum of sunlight can reach the pens on both sides of the building. Also some system of ventilation, either through the roof or by the suctloq ventilators that are used on every modern dairy bnrn. Is provided. Half of the floors, whether, the.v be of concrete or cinders', are ; covered with -heavy boards, raised slightly above tht? ground. On this half floor there Is pljeed plenty of bedding, so that the young pigs will be kept dry— with emphusis on "dry"— nnd Warm. When the fnrm has such a. hog house, the sows farrow In early spring | and "gain In the fall, which Is ps iiq1 tu'ri* Intended; Late FVbrunry pigs arc . , kept In fhe warm. $n»y houseTand, , get the start -that Ynnkes them healthy ■ and strong when they are "weaned and , 1 ready for the pnsture In spring. There ' they develop rapidly nnd are of mar- , kctable size When there Is small sup- ' ply and better prices. ' One of the modern "types of hog ' Is shown In the accompanying 1

Two auction ventilators In the roof provide for a circulation of fresh air. without there being drafts near the Boor, where the young pigs and their building is a concrete feeding floor ' | where the corn and dry' feed Is thrown for the hogs. Accompanying the Illustration Is the * floor plan of tlw tiulldlpg showing the . dimensions of tfle pens and the feedlug alley that extends through the'een,er" T<K> much emphasis- cannot be laid on the need of fresh air, dry beds and Sunshine In a hog house. These three essentials to healthy young pigs cost nothing and en n be obtained In abun- ! dance by planning the house correctly i and constructing it according to the ' modern knowledge of what Is best for the animals, By- proper care in laying the coni crete foundation^ and floor 'this . hof I house can1 be built at any season of I the year. By heating the aggregates of the concrete and covering the foundation and floor *o as prevent freezthe concrete has fully set, which, "in cold weather, requires at six days, the work can be done and the superstructure erected In time for the early spring llttqjs. y CITY OF GHASTLY LEGENDS All Sorts of Blood-Curdling Stories Current In the Mexican Metropolis, and Believed. ■ F * Mexico City' is a city of legends, I ghostly horrors, most of them estabat least upon a basts truth. of them is. about the" deeds of Don Juan Manuel who had the merry , of stalking the streets lo his cloak at night and asking the first man he thet what time It was. Upon answered. "It Is eleven- by the clock','' he would reply: -"You are lucky, for you knofr the exact you die." Thereupon he would

stnt) the chance-met stranger. He hud n dt-nrly loved nephew, and one night he met him 'hi the dnrk, and not ree- | ognlzlng him followed his usual custorn of homicide. * The next day, miul with grief, Don j Juan went to the prlqst, who ordered J '»ta> say his beads at mklnlght bej fore a church nnd near the public gallows. He tried three flmes before he was able to do so. and then, the le- . cend snj's, angels took him and hanged j him. The basis or the story Ues In the fact that a man of the name of j Jufih Manuel did stab at least one man. and his body wns 'fdund hanging | on the public gallows without any I explanation ever being made ns to how * It got there. Dice Gaming Ancient Sport I ' laming Swlth diCe and cards lias prevailed from the earliest times. We do not read of gambling houses In the classic literature! of Greece, but there can he no doubt that the vice was very widely practiced In JiriVate houses. In Rome, under the emperors, gambling prevailed extensively. Augustus and most of the succeeding sovereigns were passionately fond of the dice. nndjUie. Emperor Claudius wrote a book oh the subject. A' Rpmah would transport to a gambling Cesort his whole fortune — eplns, papers '-nil chattels-rand, after losing all. would even seize, the cloaks of his slaves to . stake on a " change or luck."
