A Home -Made Shower Bath.
A shower bath that coats us less
than a dollar is a luxury that every-
one on this farm, from the hired man
up, enjoyed last summer. We had been
farming a year and doing without
modern comforts, missing them sore-
ly. Our problem, how to get them, Is
the same as that of many a tenant.
The "handy man" attacked it, with the
result that showers were on tap when-
ever needed. He bought a large
wooden lard pail and bored a hole in
the bottom, through which he coakt

fitted with a pair of lock -nuts, and a
short pipe with a cut-off to control the
flow of water. A short piece of rub -

was evident that there were certain
aspects of the deal which disturbed
him.
