It was Pinokney's first game this year while Stockbridge has been averaging two or three games a week since the season started. Ledwidge started on the slab for Pinckney bat was in poor form from lack of practise, having no coutrol and being hit freely. His support was also far from perfect. He was relieved by Bravender in the fifth but "before this gentleman could get settled Stockbridge • poshed across eight more counters. This ended their scoring as they were unable to hit Bravender in the last four innings. Pinckney scored her first run in the third on singles by Lavey Bros, and Ledwidge and their last in the sixth on Ledwidge's double, A. Lavey's out at first and Manning's sacrifice fly. White's fielding featured for Pinckney and the all around work of Hollis for Stockbridge, that individual getting a double and two singles in five trips to the plate and alsa robbing White of a hit by a re markable shoestring catch.

You can't pass a long, hot summer day more pleasantly than in a hammock. You will enjoy a half hour of quiet repose after lunch, or an. afternoon spent with a magazine or good book. But the hammock must be well made—it must be correctly proportioned and stoutly woven—it must not be the kind that sags and goes to pieces and hangs uneven. We handle the hammocks that experience has taught us to be of the finest make and they are marked at prices that will add pleasure to your leisure hours.

Sea Girt, N. J., Aug. 7.—Woodrow Wilson was today officially notified that he had been nominated by the Democratic party as their candidate -for president. The Bpeech of notification was delivered by Ollie James, chairman of the notification committee. In reply Governor Wilson, after thanking the committee, commented on the unusual nature of the coming campaign in which the candidates must address an awakened nation, Impatient of partisan make-believe and never more susceptible to unselfish appeals or to the high arguments of sincere Justice. The forces of the nation, he said, are asserting themselves against every form of special privilege and private control, and are seek, 1ng bigger things than they have ever heretofore achieved. Two Great Things to Do. "How do we expect to handle each of the great matters that must be taken up by the next congress and the jiext administration?" said Mr. Wilson, and he answered his own query as follows: What Is there to do? It is hard to .sum the great task up, but apparently this is the sum of the matter: There sire two great things to do. One Is to set up the rule of justice and of Tight in such matters as the tariff, the regulation of the trusts and the prevention of monopoly, the adaptation of our banking and currency laws to the varied UBCS to which our people must put them, the treatment of those who do the daily labor in our factories and mines throughout all our great industrial and commercial undertakings, and the political life of the people of the Philippines, for 'whom we hold governmental power In trust, for their service, not our own. The other, the additional duty is the great task of protecting our people and our resources and of keeping open to the whole people the doors of opoprtunity through which they must, .generation by generation, pass if they are to make conquest of their fortunes in health, in freedom, in peace, and in contentment. In the performance of this second great duty we are face to face with questions of conservation and of development, queBtlonB of forests and water powers and mines and water ways, of the building of an adetjaate^ m erch ant-xaarlire, and the- opening of every highway and facility and the setting up of every safeguard needed by a great industrious, expanding nation. These are all great matters upon which everybody should be heard, >JVe have got into trouble in recent Shears chiefly because these large things, which ought to have been handled by taking counsel with as large a number of persons as possible, because they touched every Interest and the life of every class and region, have in fact been too often handled In private conference. Our difficulty is not that wicked and designing men nave plotted against us, but that our common affairs have been determined ^ipon too narrow a view, and by too private an initiative. Our task now rs to effect a great readjustment and set the forces of the whole people once more into play. We need no revolution; we need no excited change; we need only a new point of view tuad a Dew method and spirit of counsel. We are servants of the people, the whole people. The nation has been unnecessarily, unreasonably at war -wHhin itself. Interest has clashed with Interest when there were common principles of right and of fair dealing which might and should have bound them sit together, not as rivals, but as partners. As the servants of all, we are bound to undertake the great duty of accommodation and adjustment. Revision of the Tariff. Coming to the tariff question, the governor said the schedules "have been made op for the purpose of keeping as large a number as possible of the rich and influential manufacturers •of the country fn a good humor with the Republican party, which desired their constant Anancfal support The tariff has become a system of favors, -which the phraseology of the schedule wa* -often deliberately contrived to conee*!.'' Reasserting the Democratic convtctkjf » 4tat*the only legitimate object of tadff duties is to raise revenue for the' suppart of the government he continued: ,., « ; > Tharf should be am'Immediate revl- •Ion,- I s f Jt, should be downward, unhesitatingly and steadily downward. It *hould begin with the schedule* which cay* oStfn moat obviously used,to kill competltloii iusd to raise' pftoes'ln the United States, arbitrarily and without •CO jm tffi*J iWttUUtt*. eft** te fher markets of the world; s%otts$ bWWlt l r f n i e * d or Ktybe ssfesndtd t&ov«*j*lflim .. .. , tgWBjri*.' *<* special advantage to limited groups of benefl- ^Msrj«A_«L.tor _tttbsjd|i«d control of 'Anj kind In the markets or the enterprises of the country; until special favors of every sort have been absolutely withdrawn and every part of oar laws of taxation shall have been transformed from a system of governmental patronage Into a system of Just and reasonable charges which shall fall where they will create the least burden. When we shall have done that, we can fix questions of revenue and of business adjustment in a, new spirit and with clear minds. We shall then be partners with all the business men of the country, and a day of freer, more stable prosperity shall have dawned. Control of the Trusts. The governor spoke of how recent investigations have revealed the connection between the tariff and the movement of prices, and this brought him to the subject of trusts, concerning which he said in part: I am not one of those who think that competition can be established by law against the drift of a worldwide economic tendency; neither am 1 one of those who believe that business done upon a great scale by a single organization—call it corporation, or what you will—is necessarily dangerous to the liberties, even the economic liberties, of a great people like our -own, full of intelligence and of indomitable energy. I am not afraid of anything that is normal. 1 dare say we shall never return to the old order of individual competition, and that the organization of business upon a great Bcale of co-operation is, up to a certain point, itself normal and inevitable. Power in the hands of great business men does not make me apprehensive, unless it springs out of advantages which they have not created for themselves. Big business is not dangerous because it is big, but because its bigness is an unwholesome inflation created by privileges and exemptions which it ought not to enjoy. While competition cannot be created by statutory enactment, it can In large measure be revived by changing the laws and forbidding the practices that killed It, and by enacting laws that will give it heart and occasion again. We can arrest and prevent monopoly. It has assumed new shapes and adopted new processes in our time, but these are now being disclosed and can be dealt with. Concentration of Credit. But the problem and the difficulty are much greater than that. There are not merely great trusts and com* blnations which are to be controlled and deprived of their power to create monopolies and destroy rivals; there is something bigger still than they are and more subtle, more evasive, more difficult to deal with. , There are vast confederacies (as I may perhaps call them for the sake of convenience) of banks, railways, express companies, insurance companies, manufacturing corporations, mining corporations, power and development companies and all the rest of the circle, bound together by the fact that the ownership of their stock and the members of their boards of directors are controlled and determined by com paratVvety-aoiall and- closely- Inter-1 mugt_J?ulld and buy ships In .competl related groups of persons who, by their Informal confederacy, may control, if they please and when they will, both credit and enterprise. There is nothing illegal about these confederacies, so far as I can perceive. They have come about very naturally, generally without plan or deliberation, rather because there was so much money to be invested and it was In the hands, at great financial centers, of men acquainted with one another and Intimately associated in business, than because anyone had conceived and was carrying out a plan of general control; but they are none the less potent a force in our economic and financial system on that account. They are part of our problem. Their very existence gives rise to the suspicion of a "money trust," a concentration of the control of credit which may at any time become infinitely dangerous to free enterprise. If such a concentration and control does not actually exist, It is evident that it can easily be set up and used at will. Laws must be devised which will prevent this, if laws can be worked out by fair and free counsel that will accomplish that result without destroying or serious* ly embarrassing any sound or legitimate business undertaking or necessary and wholesome arrangement Question of Conservation. Of conservation and allied matters Governor Wilson said: I do not know any greater question than that of conservation. We have been a spendthrift nation and must now husband what we have left We must do mora than that We must develop, as well as preserve, our water powers and must add great waterways to the transportation facilities of the nation, to supplement the railways within our borders as well as upon the Isthmus* We must revive our merchant marine, too, and fill the seas again with our own fleets. We must add to our present poetoSce service a parcels post as complete as that of any other nation. We most look to the health of our people upon every hand, as well as hearten them with Justice and opportunity. TheW are maay sfdee tb these great matters. Conservation Is easy to gen* erallxe about but hard to particularise about wisely. Reservation la not the whole conservation. Development of great states must not be stayed Indefinitely to await a policy by which out forests and water powers can pruaemly be mad* use- of. Use and development must gp hand in hand. The policy we adopt must be progressive, not negative, merely, as if we did not know what to do. With regard to the development of greater and more numerous waterways and the building*op of a mer* chant Jaartne. we most follow great obstructive lines and not fall back ttppn the cheap device of bounties and subsidies. In the case of the Mississippi river, tttat great central artery of. our trade, It is plain that the federal government must build and maintain the levees and keep the great waters in harnes tor the general use. It is plain, too, that vast sums o4j money must be spent to develop new^j waterways where trade will be moat served and transportation most readily cheapened by them. Such expenditures are no largess on the part of the government; they are national Investments. Merchant Marine. The question of a merchant marine turns back to the tariff again,, to which all roads seem to lead, and to our registry laws, which, if coupled with the tariff, might almost be supposed to have been Intended to take the American flag off the seas. Bounties are not necessary, if you will but undo some of the things that have been done. Without a great merchant marine we cannot take our rightful place in the commerce of the world. Merchants who must depend upon the carriers of rival mercantile nations to carry their goods to market are at a disadvantage in international trade too manifest to need to be pointed out; and our merchants will not long suffer themselves—ought not to suffer themselves—to be placed at such a disadvantage. Our industries have expanded to such a point that they will burst their jackets, if they cannot find a free outlet to the markets of the world; and they cannot find such an outlet unless they be given ships of their own to carry their goods—ships that will go the routes they want them to go—and perfer the interests of America in their sailing orders and their equipment. Our domestic markets no longer suffice. We need foreign markets. That Is another force that is going to break the tariff down. The tariff was once a bulwark; now it is a dam. For trade Is reciprocal; we cannot sell unless we also buy. The very fact that we have at last taken the Panama canal seriously in band and are vigorously pushing It towards completion is eloquent of our re-awakened interest in International trade. We are not building the canal and pouring out million upon million of money upon its construction merely to establish a water connection between the two coasts of the continent, important and desirable as that may be, particularly from the point, of view of naval defense. It Is meant to be a great International highway. It would be a little ridiculous If we should build it and then have no ships to send through it. There have been years when not a single ton of freight passed through the great Suez canal in an American bottom, so empty are the seas of our ships and seamen. We must mean to put an end to that kind of thing or we would not be cutting a new canal at our very doors merely for the use of our men-of-war. We shall not manage the revival by the mere paltry device of tolls. We tion with the world. We can do It if we will but give ourselves leave. There Is another duty which the Democratic party has shown itself great enough and close enough to the people to perceive, the duty of government to share in promoting agricultural, Industrial, vocational education in every way possible within its constitutional powers. No other platform has given this Intimate vision of a party's duty. Free to Serve the People, In concluding the governor said: A presidential campaign may easily degenerate into a mere personal contest and so lose its real dignity and significance. There is no indispensable man. The government will not collapse and go to pieces if any one of the gentlemen who are seeking to be entrusted with Its guidance should be left at home. But men are instruments. We are as important as the cause we represent, and In order to be important must really represent a cause. What is our cause? The people's cause? That is easy to say, but what does it mean? The common as against any particular interest whatever? Yes, but tht too, needs translation into acts and policies. We represent the desire to set up an uhentangled government, a government that cannot be used for private purposes, either in the field of business or in the field of politics; a government that will not tolerate the use of the organization of a great party to serve the personal alms and ambitions of any individual, and that will not permit legisltlon to be employed to further any private interest. It is a great conception, but I am free to serve it, as you also are. I could not have accepted a nomination which left me bound to any man or any group of men. No man can be just who Is not free; and no man who has to show favors ought to undertake the solemn responsibility of government In any rank or post whatever, least of ail in the supreme post of president of the United flutes. To be free It is not necessarily to be wise. But wisdom comes with counsel, with the frank and free conference of untrammeled men united in the .common Interest Should ! be entrusted with the great office of president I would leek counsel wherever it could be had upon free terms; I know the temper of the great convention which nominated me; t know the temper of the country that lay back of that convention and spoke through it. I heed with deep thankfulness the message you bring' me from it. I feel that t am surrounded | by men whose principles and ambft> tlons are those of true servants of the people. I thank God, and will take 1 courage. i'^i1' r THEODORE 'CONFESSION Of FArTH 9! COLONEL ANNOUNCES LONG LIST OF RADICAL PLANKS FOR NEW PROGRESSIVE PARTY. Leader of New Movement in Record Speech Calls for Short Ballot, Short Hours- Age Pensions, Woman's Suffrage and Other Reforms. Theodore Roosevelt made his "confession of faith" to the National Progressive convention in Chicago Tuesday. The former president struck out boldly into new ground, advocating measures which he said frankly would be denounced as either socialism or anarchy. The delegates listened to his speech with the understanding that they must either adopt a platform substantially in consonance with his ^iews or look elsewhere for a nominee for the presidency. The convention was called to order for Tuesday's session at 12:30, the delegates having been slow to arrive. Chairman Beveridge introduced Col. Roosevelt, and when cheering had ceased he Immediately began his two-hour declaration of principles. These are the conspicuous points in the Roosevelt program: Recall of judicial decisions, as first advocated by Col. Roosevelt in tho spring campaign, and for which he was subjected to wide criticism. Col. Roosevelt now advocates its extension to apply to federal as well as state courts. He favors the establishment of machinery to make easier of amendment both the national and state constitutions, especially with the view of prompt action on certain judicial decisions. Use of the government to assist workmen to become part owners of the business in which they are employed. The government system should be shaped so that "the public servant when he cannot conscientiously carry out the wishes of the people, shall at their desire leave his office and not misrepresent them in office." Would Alter System of Government. Col. Roosevelt did not suggest the method by which he would bring this about, and there was much speculation as to whether he had in mind a fundamental change In the American system of government In some quarters it was interpreted as a declaration in favor of extension of the recall to include legislative, executive and judicial officers of the national government, from the president down. , Control of the trusts through retention of the Sherman anti-trust law and establishment of an interstate industrial commission to regulate corporations as the interstate commerce commission regulates railroads. Corporations which come voluntarily under this commission and obey its orders to be immune from prosecution under the Sherman law. Those which fail to do so to he subject to prosecution, and if the prosecution is successfu , thorough dismemberment, the constituent parts not to be allowed to do business save under conditions laid down by the industrial commission. Conditions determining monopoly prices to be controlled where these concerns deal with the necessaries of life. Adoption of a number of measures to secure "social and industrial justice to the wage workers." Plan for Industrial Justice. Included in the list are establishment by law immediately of minimum wage scales for women, minimum wage commissions to fix standards of wages for all workers, old age pensions, a living wage, which Col. Roosevelt defines as an amount sufficient to provide for education, recreation, care for immature members of the family, maintenance of the family during sickness, and accumulation of reasonable saving for old age; prohibition o night labor for women and children, eight-hour shifts for workmen in industries in which men are employed 24 hours a day; national and state worklngmen s compensation laws, guarantee by law of one day's rest in every seven, old age insurance and insurance against sickness, invalidism and involuntary employment, the cost of such insurance to be distributed among employer, employe and perhaps the people at large. Legislation to Increase popular control over governmental agencies, including a national law for presidential primaries, election of U. S. senators by direct vote, the short ballot, corrupt practices acts applying to primaries as well as elections, qualified adoption of the initiative, referendum and recall. Woman suffrage. Strengthening of the pure food law. Establishment of a national health department. Creation of a permanent tariff commission to study the effects ot protection and the relations of the tariff to labor. Col. Roosevelt declared against blanket revisions of the tariff, saying that changes should be made schedule by schedule.

Free passage through the canal for coastwise traffic and imposition of equal tolls for all other ships of whatever nation. Navy to be built up steadily until reduction of armaments ia made possible by international agreement. Col. Roosevelt denounced the Republican and Democratic parties as "husks, with no real soul in either,' and as "boss-ridden and privileged controlled." He asserted that the chief concern of the "privileged interests" was to defeat the new party and that they cared little whether they beat it with President Taft or Woodrow Wilson, regarding the difference between them as trivial. "I hope we shall win," he said, " and I believe 1f we can wake the people to what the fight really means that we shall win.". COMPARISON OF PLATFORMS.

"Yes, sir," resumed Jenkins, "as 1 was saying, you came In with—you know—er—the young fellow.-He kinder slouched In, looking a bit sulky.

Jenkins proceeded rapidly: "You was cording a dressing-robe about you as you came In and I see a glimpse I don't care!'—and you said it heartylike. You went on: 'I haven't a word to say—In fact, I'd be only too glad to see you succeed.'" Here I straightened with almost a screech: "What? I said that? Oh, now, Jenkins, you—oh, you're mistaken!" Jenkins eyed me sorrowfully. "Your words, sir, exactly, rind then you went on, kinder persuadlngly: 'Why, I haven't meant to stand In your way at alir*' I groaned. "Go on!" I breathed through my teeth. Then I straightened forward. "What did the judge call that punch— what kind?" "Heidelberg punch, sir,"—-a sympathetic pause as I swept my' hand through my hair. "Yes, sir, it cerand you Just *hook hands again ail qver." Jenkins stopped for breath, but I didn't say a word. S?y Jove, it all made me a bit sick, don't you know. Oh, I must have been maudlin, that's what —maudlin. I managed to wag my head to start him off again; couldn't speak, yon know! "Yea, sir." Then you says: That's all right, now, my boy; so you run along, because I'm awfuliy busy. Tomorrow we'll talk some more.' " 'Bully!' says the chap. 'Good night, old man!' Then he turns back, kinder smiling sldewlse. 'It's sure on the level, Is its that you're going to let me have a clear road with Frances?' *"0h, bother Prances I' you says laughing. 'Yes, yes, and when you win her, she'll be to me aa my own girl. And I know I'll have her love, too/ '"What's that?' saya the young fellow, kinder frowning.

Why, do you know what she dlJ tonight? She came tight up to me and in the sweetest way kissed me good night.'" "Oil!" I said, digging my fingers Into the bedclothes.

"Pardon, sir, for not waiting UU you came down," the butler was Raying, "but Mr. Billings was just so set on me bringing this to you, I had to." He had entered, responding to Jenkins; invitation, bearing in his hand a gray paper parcel. "For me?" I questioned, as he laid it on the table, and I eyed it ominously. Yet It could not be the same I had sent Billings myself—I could see that —for it was smaller, more compact, and in a different wrapper. But I was afraid to examine i t "Yes, sir—he's very bad this moraing, sir; the—er—that la, something last night seems to have excited him." His eye roved eloquently between .

Then suddenly I toil remorseful. "Whore, did 1 Mt him this time, Jenkins— did you notieo? Was he hurt much?" JenklnB looked down, avoiding my eyes. "Urn, not exactly, sir," be said; "in fact, it was—er—kinder the other way." 1 stared, aghaBt, "You don't mean, Jenkins—" Jenkins evidently did! His eyes expressed both pity and embarrassment. "What he did to you,"—be rolled his glance upward, trying to shape the idea—"I believe, sir, it's what you might call"—his voice dropped—"I believe it's what they do call wiping up the floor with." I closed my eyes an instant. "Finish!" I whispered, feebly flipping my hand at him. "He left then, sir, but the noise brought Wilkes and we helped you upstairs. You wouldn't go any farther than the door of the judge's bedroom —wanted to tell him, we supposed. When we got that far, I noticed Mr. Jack Billings' door—it's right opposite, you remember, sir—was standing just a little open. He called out very anxiously and shrill: 'Oh, do be very careful of the pajamas! My! my! 1 hope the pajamas are not hurt!' "And at thst, yoa just bangs inside the judge's room and In about two minutes, he stuck bis heed out, looking kinder toweled and mad like he'd been waked from a sound sleep, and he fires a wrapped-up parcel at the door opposite and yells: "There are your pajamas, you unnatural, heartless prodigal!

And Wilkes said we'd best do it because the judge would take care of you and get yotf to your room quietly. And the last thing 1 heard 'before he slammed Inside his room was: "There's one thing; I've got a daughter!'" I looked at Jenkins' miserably. Me was right; he did nave a daughter and i wanted her. But just now, 1 wished with all heart that she wan soaebedy's—-anybody else's daughter —than that of the man who had wiv nemssjd my humiliation.

He continued soberly: "Hft'B I n c k n d m s a n d P e r k i n s o u t o t his rooms again, and wouldn't open the door only wide enough to stick this through. And his message"—hesitatingly—" he said just tell you you had better get these pajamas back where they came from just as quickly as you could—you would If you were wise, he said." . "pb!'M uttered, dazed by this new blow, So it was her pajamas. But there was more of the message —I could see it in WilkeB' eye. "YeB, sir," he went on as 1 gave him a nod. "Mr. Billings called through the door-crack—and his voice was particularly shrill—screechy-ilke —very unnatural, sir—and he said: 'You tell him I say he'll find It very dangerous to keep them by him a moment; tell htm my advice is to return them immediately!'" Here the butler hesitated an instant and added: "And be said for me to try to remember three letters I was to mention—said you would understand." 'Three letters?" I repeated dully. "YeB, sir, three letters—I did remember 'em, too, because they happened to be the initials of a young woman I—h'm! Q. E. C sir." "Q. E. D.?" I said, puzzled and miserable. "What's Q. E.

When he had withdrawn, I sat there a moment, swallowing hard. By Jove, when a chap has had the hardest blow of hli life, and that, too, from his best friend, It's devilish hard to come up smiling. Presently I pulled myseU togethef, Jenkins, as he helped me dress, eyed me in a frightened way, his face kind of pale and greenish.

It is reported that Uncle Sam intends to reduce the size of paper money to make it wear. The purchasing price of a dollar has been greatly reduced already but It doesn't seem to wear any better than it did before. To run a newspaper without occasionally publishing an item that is untrue, or without giving offence, is like running a railroad without having accidents and smash-ups. It can't be done. The postoffice authorites seem detrmined to do things which will hamper newspaper^ and the printing business in general. A compromise parcels posts bill in the senate elittmnates 3rd class matter entirely and puts printed matter iu another class. At present books, circnlara and printed matter can be mailed at two ounces for one cent postage.

Doolittle, head of the government bureau of chemistry, says: "Eat beans if meat is too expensive. They are the best substitute. Beans have a high percentage of protein which is all there is to) the value of meat. Other good substitutes for meat, of high protein values are peas, all kinds of nuts, cheese and milk. Beans and peas are the best however for a meatless diet, but eat meat once a day if your stomach and pocket book allow it. Hereafter men intrusted with the important duty of flagging a train er setting siguals must be able to speak and read the English language. The state railroad commission issned orders to that effect last Tuesday > as it is claimed foreign*!! are ptten made to perform this duty and as a matter of pmblio aafetfo toe commission* believes they should be able to comprehend what is said to them and be able to make themselves understood in cases of emergency.

Is. necessary during ths very cold weather. X Two box-seats and a small board (with strips) from the ground to* the upper part of the coop completed the) job. The end of the nest facing the front was boarded up high, to give the hens the necessary seclusion. When the coop was completed 1 raised the end door and laid an old newspaper on the floor, covering*it very,tfiickly with sand. On this,I placed'the roost; and the coop was ready for occupancy. To clean, it Is simply necessary to take out and threw away^ the newspaper, and put in a fresh one, with mors saad. In summer,' with ons of thews coops, It would be well to open a srae door to asTord sufficient ventilation, and It would be weU to keep fewer birds in each" pen. During the winter, hi one of the "bird-cage" arrangements, we keep from- five to seven large White Rock hens, with food results. Bearing in mind that about six hens could ordinarily be kept in each coop, any ons may ten, from the) number of «hrcfcene be Intends to, keep, how the system csa be extended to H. K.

About a fortnight ago the surface became covered with what may be called "blisters," raised a little above the common level, which attracted much wondering attention. Prom each of these, in a few days, a series of cracks appeared, extending themselves In rays from a center. Finally came up a broad, soft shoot looking extremely well pleased with Itself and its work, which proved to be so-eld and well known a friend as the thistle. At this moment there are hundreds of those bold intruders show* ing defiantly through the pavement affording a most Interesting illustration of the power of vegetable growth. i Mother's Chair. Mother's chair had rocked the whole family. It made a creaking noise as it moved, but there was music in its sound. It was just high enough to allow us children to put our heads Into her lap. That was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries. Oh, vdiat a chair that was. . . . It was a9very wakeful chair! In the sick day of children other «bsirs could not'keep awake—it kept easily awake. That .chair knew all the old lullabies, and all those wordless songs which mothers sing to their children.

ROOSEVELT HEADS NATIONAL TICKET OF PROGRESSIVES Governor Johnson of California Named a s the Colonel's Running Mate. NEW PARTY IN FIELD Platform Pledges It to Ameliorate the Conditions of Living For Ail the People. WOMAN SUFFRAGE INCLUDED Three Day Convention, Imbued With Enthusiasm and Deep Religious Feeling, Is Unlike Any Previous National Political Gathering—Fair Sex Plays a Prominent Part—8pir- Ited 8peechee of Acceptance byr tho Candidates Close the Meeting. BY E. W. PICKARD. The other day a steamship from Glasgow arrived at New York with a passenger list of sixty people, one-half of whom were young women engaged to be married. Thirty young men— their prospective bridegrooms—were waiting at the pier to receive them. There are those who look upon the incident as a blow" to native industry. American legislators have been busy protecting home products of many kinds. There are laws on the statute books forbidding the Importation of contract labor. Home-grown potatoes are protected, but there is no law guarding the home-grown girl from foreign competition by forbidding the Importation of contract brides. The marriage market In America is open to all the world. So far no voice has been raised in protest against this anomalous state of things. Perhaps It Is because young marriageable American women are unorganized and without a vote. Perhaps It is because they do not fear competition. Surely the science of chemistry has made long strides since the days of Paracelsus, when men can analyze elements at a distance of ninety-five millions of miles and undertake to pronounce upon the characteristics of a form- of matter which so far has not Jbeen encountered on earth, but has been discovered to exist in the sun. Prof. J. N. Nicholson of the British Royal Astronomical society, says there Is reason to believe the spectrum is now revealing in the corona of the sun" a more elementary form of matter than any yet discovered on the earth. It is proposed to call this elementary substarrce "nebullum." Professor Nicholson** says the spectrum of the far-distant nebulae in the depths of space Indicates that they are composed of this same "nebulium," which is coming to light in the solar radiations. "Nebulium" Is considered as being a lighter gas than hydrogen. For President: THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Fdr Vice-President: HIRAM W. JOHNSON. Chicago.—la its first national convention, held in Chicago, the Progressive party placed the above ticket In the field, and then, after singing the Dozology, went out to battle, determined to carry the fight into every corner of the country. It was like no other national convention ever hejd. Happy, hopeful, light-hearted, and none the less determined, the delegates gathered in the Coliseum displayed a continuous enthusiasm that was not dismissed by the almost utter lack of anything resembling a contest. Most of them were tyros at the political convention game, and often showed it, but they laughed at each other and at themth* Uine spent in the Coliseum. First was the speech of Albert J. Beveridge as temporary chairman," delivered on Monday. Next day wafc.^ie colonel's, e/nl Mr. pooseyelt addressed an audlenee that filled/ the* immense hall and told them plainly just where he stood on every Important issue. For the third day were reserved the nominating and seconding speeches, and tb«se were supplemented by short, snappy speeches of acceptance by the two candidates. between speechesand at every other available time the delegates sang and the bands and drum corps played. The songs were mostly the familiar patriotic songs, sometimes parodied to fit present conditions. The fife and drum corps, made up of Civil war veterans, was an enlivening feature, and when it grouped itself behind Colonel Roosevelt on the platform, where he stood grasping the hands of a Union and a Confederate veteran, and played "Dixie," the wild cheers from northern and southern delegations alike seemed to Bhow that the new party knows no sectional line and no bitter memories. Features of the Platform. If it is admitted that the Progressive party is sincere in its declaration, it certainly has started out on a cam« palgn for the amelioration of the condition of the people. The humanitarian features of the platform are easily the most numerous and the most striking. As Glfford Plnchot said, the battle to be waged Is more economic than political, and more moral than economic. The resolutions include many projected measures designed to better the living conditions of the wage earner and the fanner, and the tariff plank, while declaring for a protective tariff, declared also that it must be so constructed that a fair share of Its benefits would be received by the workman and the consumer. The Initiative, referendum and recall, and the recall of judicial decisions, as explained formerly by Colonel Roosevelt, were Indorsed. In matters more purely political the platform declared for national presidential primaries, popular election of senators and publicity of campaign funds. As has been said, It pronounced flatly In favor of equal suffrage for both sexes. 8tory of the Sessions. To Senator Dixon of Montana, as provisional chairman, fell the duty of starting things off Monday noon. He spoke briefly and forcibly and then introduced former Senator Beveridge of Indiana as the temporary chairman. Mr. Beveridge, who had just been nominated for governor by the Pro- An instance of the composition of the death lists from heat was afforded in a report from Chicago concerning the mortality. Some specifications were given concerning ten deaths. Of those three, ,were drowned, two had necks broken from falls, one man cut his throat, another fell from a buildtag, an infant, fonr days old, died without medical attention and two dropped dead, both being inside of buildings when the fatal stroke came. This way of manufacturing heat mortality lists would be humorous if It wefa not to likely to be injurious. . 4 » Summer resort keeper In Main* reports hundreds of swordflsh In the, vicinity of his hostelry.

Women Prominent In Convention. Then, too, in no previous convention have the women had so prominent a part They sat as delegates In many of the state sections, they swarmed in the galleries, and one of them, Jane Addams of Chicago, Introduced as the greatest and best loved woman ' in America, had the honor of seconding the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt AH this was but natural, for the colonel had declared himself In favor of equal suffrage, and the platform contained* a plank giving unqualified approval to "votes for women." Especially marked was the deeply religious feeling that pervaded the convention. This first manifested Itself on the opening day, when, in the midst of a noisy demonstration, the sand began to ptay "Onward, Christian Soldier." At ones the entire body of delegates took up the song, solemnly, with no particle of levity, and stirring words and atately muslo of the hymn rolled up to o r r i r t e f s . atasic shared with oratory most of gressives of Indiana, was given a hearty, noisy greeting, and he delivered a "keynote" address that was all his friends expected. He set forth eloquently, from the Progressive point of view, .the need of the new party and its aims and ambitions, and bis strong climaxes never failed to meet with the responsive enthusiasm of his hearers. He attacked the doings of the professional politicians, and a man in the gallery cried To h—1 with the politicians," which sentiment was loudly applauded. He scored.the attempts to dissolve the Standard Oil and Tobacco trusts, and was cheered. In stating the position of the new party in regard to business he caught the fancy of the audience by shouting : "We want to pass prosperity around!" Next day great banders bearing the words "Pass Prosperity Around" were hung from the galleries. When Mr. Beveridge concluded t h e delegates sang "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," and then the other temporary oftcers were announced. These Included the following: General secretary, 0 . K. Davis; chief assistant secretary, Wilson Brooks; sergeantat- sras, Col. Cbauncey Dewey. After adopting a role barring contested delegate! from voting on any question betel* the oonventloft, the delegates sent A committee to invite:, Colonel Roosevelt to address the convention ,T«eaday, and ,-adjtmrn<*l for the a'ay. The colonel had arrived during the morning and had been given a great ovatiem: by the people. Colopsl fU>oto\t«4*'* 3peech. Wfrefr the t^me (g£ o^enlng^the, proceedings came Tuesday Chairman Beveridge with difficulty, stopped the •gay singing of the djftegateg and JS9jJto them the following telegram* from Col. William R. Nelson* publisher of the~Kansas City Star; ''Lord, how I wish I were with you. What a great day, the launching of a party of imagination, hope and prospects. We can afford to give the other fellows their memories and disappointments. The past has no interests for us. The future is our fruit Give Colonel Roosevelt my love. I never have missed a chance to place a bet Gov. Hlrom W. Johnson. on him and never have lost when there was a square deal. The Lord Is surely with us. He has given us the men as well as the opportunity. I cannot help but feel wbat a narrow escape we had in the June convention. Roosevelt might have been nominated. My congratulations to everybody." More songs, and then came the colonel. As he Btepped briskly to the frdrit of the platform the din was deafening. Every man and women In the hall was standing on a chair, and the air was full of waving bandannas and flags. The band blared; the drum corps, standing back of Mr. Roosevelt, played as hard as it could; the delegations soon started marching about the hall, carrying their state standards and many emblems Through the tumult could be heard the bull moose call. Miss Jane Addams, one of the Illinois delegates, was boosted upon the platform, and after her came other women delegates, who were seated on the stage. When the demonstration had lasted about forty-five minutes the audience recognized Mrs. Roosevelt in the balcony over the main entrance and directed the cheering toward her until she rose and waved a bandanna in response. She and the colonel exchanged greetings across the throng. Finally, after nearly one hour, the tumult died down gradually and Colonel Roosevelt was permitted to deliver his address. It was a frank and full statement of his political and economic creed and was well received. Near its close he was interrogated as to his position on the question of negro representation in southern delegations, and he made a lengthy ex* planation which seemed to suit the convention and which afterward was approved by assembled negroes. Colonel Roosevelt having concluded, W. Frank Knox of Michigan took the platform and, as chairman^ presented the report of the credentials committee. The report barred every negro delegate who had contested a seat in the convention. Doings of the Closing Day. It was nearly noon on Wednesday when the convention came to order, and there was a lot of work to accomplish. First the temporary organization was made permanent, and then Medill McCormlck presented the report of the committee on rules. This gave the name of Progressive party to the new party, with the provision, added later, that in states where it was necessary to operate "under another name, the party there should be recognized. as an integral part of the. national party. Various clauses designed to do away with conditions that bad been causes of complaint in the old parties were adopted with cheers. William H. Hotchkiss, chairman of the New York organization, told the 'convention of the work being done by the Progressives in his state and of their prospects, and then a recess* was taken. An hour and a half later the delegates returned from the lunch counters and more rules wore adopted. Chief of these was one empowering the national executive committee to appoint four women as members at large 6f the national committee. Prende*gest Names ffoossvelt. "The secretary will now call the roll of states for nominations for president," said the chairman. "Alabama," called the secretary, but be got no further. Alabama yielded to Maw* Tort, a n * "after a long delay William A. Prendergast was brought from the lunch room and introduced to make the speech putting Theodore Roosevelt In nomination. The comptroller of New York spoke with great eloquence and bis euloglstic description of the candidate was the signal for prolonged applause.

Bang went the gavel for the last time, and the first national convention of the Progressive party was a part of the political history of the United States. Some Amusing Incidents. Ttie convention was not without its funny features. The band provided the crowd with several good laughs. Once Chairman Beveridge megaphoned the leader to play "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and the musicians played the "Battle Cry of Freedom" ali through. Again, on the last day the delegates were oheertng Mrs. Roosevelt and the band rendered "Oh, You Great Big Beautiful Doll" with great eclat The Illinois delegation marched in once earryiag on a long pole-the hat Frank Funk, the Progressive candidate for governor, used to wear, and it remained as a feature of the Illinois section. Mrs. W. A. Davis, the handsome y o u t i Chicago woman who led the great Hadley-Roosevelt demonstration In the Republican convention was In the audience Tuesday when the colonel was betng-eboered.' Some one found her and led her to the front, but she "couldn't cama badr," the furore was waning, and1 after shaking Ma. Roosevelt's hand, she retired grassy fully.

The nomination was made by acclamation^ Now came the grand eftmax of the convention. The chair had announced that the nominees would appear on the platform and accept the honor conferred on them. The notification committees retired - and soon returned, escorting Messrs. Roosevelt and Johnson, and the entire body of delegations and guests rose with a mighty roar. As the leaders stood side by side a big flag was unfurled from the rafters, and when he could make himself heard, Senator Beveridge announced that then was unfurled for the first time the flag bearing the 48 stars in the new and authorized arrangement. "Of course I will accept the nomination," said the colonel, when he was given a chance to speak, and after giving assurance of his heartfelt devotion to the cause he said some mighty nice things about Governor Johnson. . The governor responded in kind, declaring that he would rather go down to defeat with Roosevelt than to win a victory with any other man in the world. While he spoke the Californlans distributed dodgers bearing these words: Roosevelt and Johnson. New Tork and California. Hands across the Continent. . "But there ia neither east nor wCst, border nor breed nor birth, When two strong men stand face, to face, though they come from the ends of the earth." —Kiting. With difficulty .Chairman Beveridge restrained jthe Crowd, begging it to wait quietly, until he declared the convention adjourned. At his request, after the benediction had been pronounced, all joined In singing the Doxology, and they sang it with tlue so- This year's grain crops in the United States will be far in eieesB oflasjt. years yield* to.**** t*ti|»ated Saturday by the .-detriment of agriculture. • '*•'» x-', y.: y ..;)• It will be better .than the. average crop for the past ten years, and in the case of a number of products wUl make a new record, if present estimates are not overthrown by unforseen conditions.

The yield of rye, 35,000,000 bushels, will equal that of 1910, the former record year. Of potatoes, which will amount thia year to :ni,000,"000 bushels, only 1909 with its 38.9,000,000 bushels, produced a larger yield. Michigan is expected to produce 7,3S2,000 bushels of winter wheat of a quality rated at 78. The unusual weather in'the state has reduced the corn crop to a condition rated at 72, a s against 81 for 1911, and 79, the average for the last ten years. Michigan oats, however, show encouraging reports, this year's crop standing S7, compared with 81 for 1911 and 85 for the teu-year average. PASSES CANAL BILL.

M k U w A-prtetJrwfJ Coil— mryi^H ri ITi r, i i r i r 'if "tssssm Finely ground raw rock phosphate, such as is being sold as a source of phosphoric acid, for fertilising, .purposes la found quite extensively throughout the southern, middle westera and western states. It has been conservatively estimated that if the present rate of consumption should be increased three times, there is now in sight an amount of rock phosphate sufficient to supply the demand for 1,200 years. The principal source of supply for this section at the present time is Tennessee, and a good grade of rock should be laid down, in car lots, along the lines of the trunk railroads in the southern part of the state for $8.50 to $9.00 per ton. The grade of rock phosphate generally found upon the markets contains about 61 per cent, booe phosphate of lime, which is equivalent to 28 per cent, phosphoric acid and 33 per cent lime. Fineness la a large factor in determining the availability of rock phosphate. The finer the material the more readily it will become available, consequently this point should be taken into consideration when purchasing. To obtain the best results it should be ground to such fineness that 95 per cent will pass through a 100 mesh screen. By far the greater part of the rock phosphate used for fertilizing purposes is in the form of acid phosphate, (dissolved phosphate or superphosphate). This is prepared by treating the rock phosphate with an equal weight of sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol). This treatment changes the phosphoric acid from an insoluble to a soluble form and makes it readily available to the growing plant. The cost of the phosphoric acid to the consumer is increased by this process to nearly four times, since the acid phosphate sells at retail for nearly double what the raw phosphate costs and it contains only half as much phosphoric acid. In view of this situation the question naturally arises would it not be more economical to use the slowly available raw phosphate than to pay the higher price for the acid phosphate. Many of the state experiment stations have conducted experiments to compare these two forms of phosphoric acid, but the results have been conflicting. In fact the results obtained at fiome statlonns over a period of several years have been so contradictory ai to be of little value. The most widely advertised experiments with rock phosphate are , those conducted by Dr. Hopkins in Illinois. These experiments have been in progress during a period of 12 or 14 years and have been conducted on the so-called prairie soils ri«h in organic matter. The crops most commonly employed have been corn, oats, wheat and clover. The rock phosphate has at all times been applied in connection with liberal amounts of manure or with clover turned under. The conclusions* drawn from the results of these experiments are that rock phosphate is a more economical source of phosphoric acid than the treated phosphate. In Ohio the experiments by Director Thomas have been conducted in much the same manner as the Illinois experiments, but the results here justify the conclusion that the acid phosphate is the more economical source of phosphoric acid. A few experiments have been conducted by the Michigan experiment station, and in no case have the results favored the rock phosphate, though it should be stated that the experiments were not conducted under the most favorable conditions. In reviewing the experiments reported from all experiment stations where experiments "have been conducted it is impossible to arrive at any definite conclusion on the subject, consequently letters were written to the direc tors of 21 state experiment stations asking them to state how they advised thelf constituent farmers on the subject. Seventeen replied by saying that they do cot recommend the use of rock phosphate and four recommend Its use when accompanied by liberal applications bf barn yard manure or when green manure Is turned under. Director Tborne, who is often quoted as favoring rock phosphate, replied by saying "In- our experiments UT the use of raw rock phosphate as a re-enforcement of manure, as compared with add phosphate, we find very little difference 4n the net return, after deducting the cost of treatment, "between the two materials. The difference at present seems to be slight ly in favor of the acid phosphate. Our results in the separate uae of the two phosphates as a direct application to the land do not encourage the use of the raw rock." Although the results from all these experiments *r* so contradictory they have clearly demonstrated one thing i. e. that It is useless to uae raw rock pboepfcato except as a re-eoforcement of manure or upon land that 1« rich In organic matter. Dr. Hopkins strongly emphasise* this point in, these words: .We desire again to emphasize the fact that humus as well aa phosphorus is needed to maintain the fertility of Illinois toil, and again to doubly emphasise the fact that raw phosphate must be used In connection with liberal amounts of manure or with a good crop of clover plowed under If satisfactory results are to be ••cured oa Illinois soils. Whoa used without a good crop rotation and with* out farm raanare or green manure, dtsv 1 , • .' ?.'lj'J! appointing results are very sure to follow." " ' '" •'" U is the opUMon o/ the writer^based upon tjie available evidence' from all sources, that more eafeful experimenting must be done before this question can be definitely settled. Up to the present time the beet results, taking everything into consideration, have been obtained with the acid phosphate. Then, too, it has not yet been definitely proved that the beneficial results from the. use of raw rock phosphate la due in every case to the phosphoric acid It contains. As previously stated raw rock phosphate contains, on an average, 28 per cent, phosphoric acid and 33 per cent lime and any reaction taking place in the soU tending to make available the phosphoric acid will also make the lime available. In -many of the experiments with rock phosphate crops have been used which are known to be usually benefited by lime, and in such cases it i s unfair, in the writer's opinion, to attribute the good results entirely to the phosphoric acid of the rock phosphate. Then, too, the use of rock phosphate under the most favorable conditions calls for better methods of farming and this, of itself, is bound to increase the yields. In conclusion, the writer wishes to Impress upon the readers of this article that the results of other experiments cannot be taken as applying to their own conditions and that if rock phosphate Is used at all it should be done in an experimental way, and that it should be used on such crops as corn, oata, wheat, clover, etc., and never upon crops like potatoes, sua*w •B^maj n«uts 'suoiuo 'eB«qq«o 'trpeq SE The Cost of Making Cement " Tile By H. H. Musselman In the following figures which are furniBhed for estimating the cost of making cement tile It must be kept In mind that they will be affected by local conditions in almost .every case- The cost of labor, sand and gravel, kind of machine used, convenience of arrangement for manufacturing) and number to be made, will all affect this item. The factors which will affect the cost to the greatest degree are labor, and the coat of sand laid down at the place of manufacture. The element of labor required Is often neglected in making estimations of this kind, since it is assumed that at certain seasons of the year it cannot be used for other purposes. This should not be neglected because the successful farmer endeavors to use his time in suoh a way as* to give it the highest worth. This will only be possible when U Is considered and its real value becomes known. In places where sand Is difficult to obtain or where clay tile is extensively manufactured, the making of cement tile on the farm may not be advisable, but in sections where clay tile are not easily obtained, and where sand 1B convenient, their cost will usually be found less than for the clay product. The following figures are based on some rather short teBts made by the farm mechanics department of the Michigan agricultural college. These tile were made on a machine adaptable to both hand and power operating, the mixing being done by hand. Two men were required to operate the machine to the best advantage. On this machine from 40 Oto 500 tile could be made per day of ten hours by hand power, and from 600 to 750 per day, using small gasoline engine for power. Not more than one-half to one horse power was required to run the machine. In any case it would be of decided advantage to use power, and if a Targe number are to be made a mixer could be devised which could be operated by power, and thereby materially reduce the work connected with their manufacture. Making at the rate given above the cement and sand has to be mixed in comparatively small batches, since no more should be mixed than can be used in a half hour. All the figures given are for a four inch tile having a nlne-slxteenth-inch wail. No data was obtained on other sizes. The cost of the size given should give a fair notion of the cost of the other common sizes and furnish a basis of comparison with other kinds of ttle. The proportions used were one to four of cement and sand, screened through a three-eighth • Inch screen.

"r Lady Augusta Gregory, the able and ardent apostle of the modern Irish movement, is fond of telling the following real Irish story: "It was the wedding day of Pat and Bridget, and they were having a church wedding. It was a grand affair. Pat was dressed with patent leather shoes, white vest and flaming tie. Bridget shone attractively in many colors. The cerembhy was over, and the happy pair walked down the aisle, out into the street, where a great crowd greeted them with delight. "Once seated within the cab, Bridget leaned over to Pat and said, in a loud whisper, 'Och, Pat, If we could only have stood on the sidewalk and watched ourselves pass, wouldn't it have been hivin'."

Mtl Frank Bell Frank Bell waa born May 31, 1888 in Dexter township, Washtenaw Co. and died August 6 / 1912. Until the p u t few months he was looked upon as a model of physical fituess and there were few who could outdo him iu a hard day's work. A short time ago his health began to fail and in hope of relief he went to the U. of M. hospital at Ann Arbor, where the specialists diagnosed his case as valvular heart trouble. Although everything possible was done to help him, a special nurse being in attendance constantly, and having the best attention that a private patient could have iu that great institution, he did not survive long after goiug there. Frank was well known to all in this community and his loss will be felt by all his friends, and especially by his former employers who considered him one of the best workman in this section. He was strictly honest and trust worthy, faithful and thoroughly competent iu every branch of farm work, always deeply appreciative of any kindness shown him and never forgetting to repay any favor, no matter how small. This fine characteristic was especially noticeable iu his kitid and sympathetic attentions to his mother in her recent severe illness. j That the funeral was the largest I held in Pinckney for some years j shows the appreciation of his loss and sympathy with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mark Bell, and the eight brothers and three sisters in this their first great bereavment Relatives and friends from | Webberville, Jackson, Ann Arbor, - \ Munith, Bunker Hill and Dexter, T 1 17 1 If • J D*ll besides an unusually large number 1&K6 r 0 l 6 y IvlQIlCy I 1113 j from Pinckney were in attendance TONIC IN ACTION - QUICK IN RESULTS i at the funeral.

MORE PRACTICAL THINGS TO « TAUGHT IN FUTURE, Agriculture Will Be Required Study in Every Prtrnsry School District In the State of Michigan. Agriculture becames a required Study in every primary school district in Michigan this year, according to the new course of study which has been outlined by Superintendent of Public Instruction Luther L. Wright. The legislature of 1911 gave to the superintendent the power of definitely outlining the course of study which must he followed in every district school in the state. Heretofore the course of study was optional with each district board, the superintendent's power toeing onljj advisory, Mr. Wright takes advantage of the opportunity given him by the new law and will require a course of agriculture to be introduced in every district school. On account of the lack o.f preparation in this subject on the part of teachers, Supt. Wright only requires one-half year of intensive studyy with a text book, this to be given In the eighth grade. In addition to this Intensive study, a course in nature study, beginning with the third grade and advancing through school and home gardening, crop planting and allied subjects is recommended as most desirable supplementary work. First Step In Wide Reform. The prescribed course in agriculture is simply the first step toward reforming the rural schools in the state and making them reflect the life which surrounds them rather than weakly imitating the city schoof. Supt. Wright is earnestly advocating the ruralizing of the country schools; that Is, giving the boys and girls of the farming districts an insight into the problems which are in close relation to their lives, arousing an iutereBt. in scientific 'agriculture, making their training not only of cultural but of practical value as well. As fast as it is practical the work in t agriculture will be extended to the other grades. The new course of study does not stop with the introduction of agriculture, important as that step is, but it emphasizes throughout its scope the desirability tor making the work ot the rural school more practical. In arithmetic, for example, the^ problems are to deal with potatoes/ grain, butter, eggs, farm fields, productiveness of cows and hens. They are not to deal with hypothetical cases which are not in range of the experience of a boy or girl on the farm.' and probubly never will be, but they will be such problems in farm accounting that their fathers and mothers are called upon constantly to consider, Learn Practical Things, The geography in the new course of study will begin at home, and the child will be taught something about his own township, county and state before he has to master the list of European capitals and to bound the various Asiatic empires. The problems of food production and their relation to people is of more Importance in the present-day conception of geography than drawing of weird maps and the memorizing of the names of various rivers end mountain ranges. Instead of learning the names of all the bones in the body and being able to locate the various organs and describe their functions, the child is to leftrn how to take care of his teeth, skin, eyes, ears and other parts of his body, how to revive a person who is nearly drowned; what to do in case a person is burned or suffers a broken bone or a severed artery. The menace of riles and mosquitoes and other similar questions of hygiene and sanitation will supersede the technical physiology which has been taught in the country schools. Teach Correct Speaking. Reading In the new course of study Is emphasized as probably the most important subject in the schools. Teachers are Instructed to train the chidrren to read for the thought rather than for expression, so silent rather than aloud reading is recommended. The plan is for the child to read, silently from the printed page, close his book and then stand before the class and tell what he has read. In this way the dhlld not only learns to read quickly and for the thought, but he acquires the desirable ability to stand on his feet, face other people and use the English language. He learns to speak correctly, as criticism is an important part, of the work. The idea is that habits of correct speech are infinitely more valuable^ to the boy or girl than a knowledge of rules of grammar. J.

"Pardon, sir—'* Jenkins' eye shitted unhappily; "but may I ask, sir, what is the last thing you do remember?" "Eh?"

Then I remembered: We were in a Jolly blue aeroplane drawn by golden hummingbirds and Bhe was just telling me— no, dash it, that was a dream—Just a dashed dream!

Then 1 looked at htm, startled. "Oh, I say, now, it wasn't burglars, was it?" You see, 1 thought at once of Foxy Grandpa and my darling's pajamas. "Not precisely, sir." Jenkins hesitated; then moved a little nearer. "1 —I hope you'll pardon me, Mr. Lightnut, sir; but I can't help a feeling that you ought to know everything before —h'm—I was going to say, sir, before you see the family. I hope you'll pardon me, sir!"—he heaved desperately—" I mean about all that happened la/at night." I stared. "Oh, I say, Jenkins," 1 said, with an anxious thought, "you didn't—er—you know—1 mean you and Wilkes didn't drink the rest of the punch—after he took It away, you know—eh?" "Me?" Jenkins' hand clutched the heavy brass curve at the foot of the bed. "No, sir!"—and he added sadly: "Besides, sir, there wasn't any rest of It! Mr, Wil—I mean Wilkes, was a-commenting on it. That was how 1 come to find I didn't have any more of the blank pledges. So I just walked across the park to get some extra ones I had given the gardener, and he said 1 could have 'em all, if I'd just let him get a little sleep; and he chucked 'em all out of his window. Seemed irritated like because I woke him up. And then, sir, I don't know whether it was because of the splashing of the fountains, but I had an idea." "That's nothing," I said contemptuously. "I often do at night when 1 hear water splashing. I often get up and get something." Jenkins' face sobered. "1 know It, sir—pardon, sir, I mean I frequently know you have—h'm—know by the glasses—you understand, sir!" Then he went on: "The Idea that came to me was a great liberty—I know that, sir, and I'm sorry—but I guess I was thinking that about the end justifies— you know it, sir?" I didn't know, but I did with he would make an end! "The library windows was open on the loggia, sir, and when I looked is, I didn't see anybody and I thought—" Jenkins coughed and looked devilish rattled—"thought I would just slip in and lay. a few of the temperance pledgee between the papers the judge had been working on."

May Be Tinted WW* •Ut Injuring Its Quatty if Handle In Right Way. So p i t t is th« possibility of scaldlug the fowl improperly that dealer* in some localities show an Inclination to demand dry plucked fowls. As a means of overcoming this difficulty, C. K. Graham of Connecticut, who has spent a good deal of time in studying the subject, offers these suggestions: Aay aged bird may be scalded without seriously Injuring its quality if it 1s properly handled; but owing to the large number of poorly dressed scalded fowls, the marketmen place a premium of from 1 to 2 cents a pound on dry plucked stock. Boiling water may be used, but care must be taken not to leave young birds In the water too long, or the skin will cook, while, with old fowls a little more time may not do any harm. The head and shanks should be kept out of the water, as the scalding will discolor them and make them unsightly. Immediately after the bird Is taken from the scalding water it should be dipped into cold water to stop the cook, and, as poultrymen say, to "plump the bird." The bird should then be hung as for dry plucking, as no bird plucked on the lap or the table will have so good an appearance. If a scalded bird le exuosed to a draught when being plucked or when cooling, the skin is likely to harden and become rough. It is because of these possibilities that dry plucking is recommended, as the condition of the skin to a great extent accounts for the high or low returns received. It la of Speolal Manufacture and Combines Strtngth, Flexibility and Lightness. ! The rope used by Alpine climbers Is of special manufacture, combining as tar a* possible the differing quali- | tieB of- strength,' flexibility and lightness. ' Three Qualities are in general ; use, being made from Sisal, Italia* | and Manilla hemps respectively, and occasionally, When cost is not considered, of silk. The latter, though vary light and strong, is not so durable as the others. That which finds most favor among British mountaineers to known as Buckingham's Alpine rope; it is made of the best Manilla hemp. In the year 1864, Mr. McLelsh recalls, a committee of the Alpine club made tests upon a number of ropes suitable for mountaineering. Of the two that were approved one waa made of Italian hemp and the other of Manilla. They both had a breaking strain of two tons and sustained the weight of a twelve Btone man after falling from a height of ten feet. Non-mountaineers have sometimes considered this insufficient, but It Is highly problematical whether the human anatomy could survive the sudden compression of a thin rope arising from any greater fall.—Fry's Magazine. MOVABLE ROOSTS AND NESTS STILL OBSERVE MARKET DAY Nothing More Convenient in Cleaning Than Long Saw-Horse In Fight Against Little Parasites. For Complete Enjoyment A t Meal Time, Use bread made made from Purity Flour and you will say that it is the bread that everybody ought to eat. Here is a receipt for f making bread, and will J always work. Good yeast, common ?j sense and Purity Flour. ft ? * i After trying all sorts and type* of roosts and roost-poles, I am convinced that nothing is better than a long saw-horse, says a writer in the Farm, Mall and Breeze. A roost of this type, set on a smooth floor, and with removable nest boxes, makes it possible to keep the henhouse perfectly clean at all times. The main difficulty experienced in cleaning the house. J« the obstructions, these being usually the rooets and nests. If they can be taken out quickly and handily, and nothing left but a bare room with a smooth" board floor, the work of cleaning becomes an easy task.

An houses and nests should be Had to Rename His Villa. The residents of a certain suburb of Chicago were for a time governed by a paasion for giving sweet, poetical names to their "estates." There was one such man who built a handsome villa, calling it "The Nutshell." Thus was the home Introduced to his friends, and it became widely known. To the surprise of all, therefore, the name was one day suddenly changed to "Sylvan Nook," and a flood of inquiries soon began to pour in. "Why have you given your home a new name?" a friend asked. "What waa the matter with 'The Nutshell?'" "I sickened of being joshed about it," said the owner, with a sigh.

It was natural to signalize the annual ripening and gathering of the fruits of the earth by some sort of rejoicing, and It was natural, too, that the manifestation of renewed life in the spring should re* ceive similar recognition. These autumn and spring festivals may be called the natural holidays. Once holidays were started, it is not strange that they grew in number, says the Cincinnati Enquirer. It is for most a world of toil and sweat and grime that we live In, and an occasional break accompanied by a little recreation and change of mental and physical environment, Is necessary and salutary. Consequently all sorts of occasions and events were availed of to make holidays. Present education, though very far from presenting an " unmpromislng aspect, shows glaring inefficiencies that should be looked at squarely so that they, may be removed. For instance, a very large proportion of the public school teachers in the country are minors, and less than half of them have had any special or adequate preparation for teaching; In several states from 20 to 30 per cent, of them every year are beginners; and in the beot states the average length of service Is less than four years. The average wage' of all public school teachers In the United States, Including the teachers In all our cities is $1.00 a day for the working days of the whole year— less than $500 per annum; or less than $10 a week, says the World's tWork. The average pa? in eleven •states is less than $400; in eight states, It is less than $300; in two ^states, less jjian jjfgj. ^ Eggs have been hatched in Egyptjn ovens for hundreds of years. incub3P tors that hold from 30,000 to 60,000 eggs are still in existence, where for •generations about 70 per cent, of each heating have been successfully hatched.

The committee, headed by Senator Root, called on tbe president at the White House. Mr. Taft's speech of acceptance was carefully prepared for use as a campaign document. It was in part as follows: \ Mr. Root and Gentlement of the Notification Committee: I accept the nomination which you tender. I do so with profound gratitude to the Republican party, which has thus honored me twice. I accept it as an approval 'of what I have done under its mandate, and as an expression of confidence that in a second administration I will serve the public Well. * The issue presented to the convention, over which your chairman presided with euch a just and even hand, made a crisis in the party's life. A faction sought to force the party to violate a valuable and timehonored national tradition by entrusting the power of the presidency for more than two terms to one man, and that man, one whose recently avowed political views would have committed the party to radical proposals involving dangerous changes in our present constitutional form of representative government and our independent judiciary. Achievements of the Party. This occasion is appropriate for the expression of profound gratitude at Ihe victory for the right which was won at Chicago. By that victory, the Republican party was saved for future usefulness. It has been tbe party1 thjrough.'w'htcb substantially all the progress and development in oar country's history in the last fifty yiMflri' |sfj; bejn finally effected. It cafrled the country through the war which saved the Union, and through the greenback and silver* crazes to a sound gold basis,, which saved the country's honor and credit. It'fought the Sj)ajjlsh wor g£d successfully solved the new problems of our Island possessions. It met the Incidental evils of the enormous trade expansion and extended combinations of capital from 1807 until now by a successful crusade against the attempt,of concentrated wealth to control the country's politics and its trade. It enacted regulatory legislation to make the railroads the eervants and not the masters of the people. It has enforced the an_tl-trust laws, until those who were not content wltn anything but monopolistic control of variousbranches of Industry are now acquiescent In any plan which shall give them scope for legitimate expansion and assure them Immunity from reckless prosecution. The list of legislative enactments for the uplifting of those of our people suffering a disadvantage in their social and economic relation to others enacted by the Republican party In this and previous administrations Is a long one, and shows the party sensitive to the needs of the people under the new view of governmental responsibility. Public Mind Inflamed. After^ mentioning In «ome detail these enactments under the Republican administrations, Mr. Taft continued: In the work of rousing the people to the danger that threatened our civilization from the abuses of concentrated wealth and the power it was likely to exercise, the public imagination was wrought upon and a reign of sensational journalism and unjust and unprincipled muckraking has followed, In which much injustice has been done to honest men. Demagogues have seized the opportunity further to inflame the public mind and have sought to turn tbe peculiar con* ditions to their advantage. We are living in an age in which by exaggeration of the defects of our present condition, by false charges of responsibility for it against individuals and classes, by holding up to tbe feverish Imagination of the less fortunate and the discontented the possibilities of a millennium, a condition of popular unrest has been produced. New parties are being formed, with the proposed purpose of satisfying this unrest by promising a panacea. In so far as Inequality of condition can be lessened and equality of opportunity can be promoted by improvement of our educational system, the betterment of the lews to insure the quick administration of justice, and by the prevention of the acquisition of privilege without just compensation, In so far as the adoption of the legislation above recited and laws of a similar character may aid the less fortunate In their struggle with the hardships of life, all are In sympathy with a continued effort to remedy injustice and to aid tbe weak, and I ven* tore to say that there is no national administration In which more real steps of such 'progress bars been tabfar as the propaganda for tbe satisfaction of unrest 'involve**' the promise J of a miiltnnluoV a'-contusion is which the rich are to be made reasonably poor and the poor reasonably rich by <fiejlaw, we are chasing a phantom; we are holding out to those whose unrest we fear a prospect and a dream, a vision of the Impossible. Looks Like SoctiHim. l Ip the ultimate analysis, I fear, the equal opportunity which those seek who proclaim the coming of so-called social justice involves a forced division of property, and that means «oclaHstn. In the abuses of the last two decades it is true that ill-gotten wealth has been concentrated In some undeserving hands, and that if it were possible to redistribute it on any equitable principle to those from whom It was taken without adequate or proper compensation it would be a good r£ suit to bring about. But' this is Obviously impossible and impracticable. All that can be done 1B to treat this aB one incidental evil of a great expansive movement in the material progress of the world and to make sure that there will be no recurrence of such evil. In tETs regard we have made great progress and reform, as in respect to secret rebates In railways, the improper conferring of public franchises, and the immunity of monopolizing trusts and combinations. The misfortunes of ordinary business, the division of the estates of wealthy men at their death, the chances of speculation which undue good fortune seems often to stimulate, operating as causes through a generation, will do much to divide up such large fortunes. It is far better to await the elimination of this evil by natural causes than to attempt what would soon take on the aspect of confiscation or to abolish the principle and institution of private property and to change to socialism. Socialism involves the taking away of the motive for acquisition, saving, ebergy, and enterprise, and a futile attempt by committees to apportion the rewardB due for productive labor. It means stagnation and retrogression. It destroys the mainspring of human action that has carried the world on and upward for 2,000 years. Opponents Offer No Remedy. I do not say that the two gentlemen who now lead, one the Demo cratic party and the other the forme* Kepubltcans who have left their, party, In their attacks upon existing conditions, and in their attempt to satisfy the popular unrest by promises of remedies, arg consciously embracing socialism. The truth is (hat they do not offer any definite legislation or policy by which the happy conditions they promise are to be brought/about, but if their promises mean anything, they lead directly toward **bi. appropriation of what belotgB to one man, to another. The truth is, my friends, both those who have loft the Republican party yj^cter the inspiration of their present leader, and our old opponents, the Democrats, under their candidate, are going in a direction they do not definitely know, toward an end they can not definitely describe, with but one chief and clear object, and that is of acquiring power for their party by popular support through the promise of a change for the better. What they clamor for is a change. They ask for a change in government so that the government may be restored to the people, as If this had not been a people's government since the beginning of the constitution. I have the fullest sympathy with every reform in governmental and election machinery which shall facilitate the expression of the popular will as the short ballot and the reduction In elective offices to make it possible. But these gentlemen propose to reform the government, whose present defects, if any, are due to the failure of the people to devote as much time as is necessary to their political duties, by requiring a political activity by tbe people three tjmes that which thus far the people have been willing to assume; and thus they propose remedies which, instead of exciting the people to further interest and activity in the government, .will tire them into such an indifference as still further to remand control of public affairs to a mindrity. Hostility, to Judiciary. Instead of giving us the benefit of any specific remedies for the hardships and evils of society they point out, they follow their urgent appeals for closer association of the people in legislation by an attempt to cultivate the hostility of the people to tbe courts and to represent that they are in some form upholding injustice and are obstructing the popular will. Attempts are made to take away all those safeguards for maintaining tbe Independence of the judiciary which are so carefully framed in our constitution. These attempts find expression in the policy, on the one hand, of the recall of Judges, a system under which a judge whose decision In one case may temporarily displease tbe electorate is to be deprived at once of his office by a popular vote, a pernicious system embodied 1n the Arizona constitution and which the Democrats of the house and senate refused to condemn as the initial policy of a new state. Tbe same spirit manifested Itself in the vote by Demo* cratic senators pn the proposition^ first, to abolish the commerce court> and, second, to abolish Judges by mere act of repeal, although, under the oqnstitution their terms are for life, on no ground except that they did not tike some of the court's recent decisions. Another form of hostility to tbe judiciary is shown in tbe grotesque proposition by tbe loader of former Republicans wbo have left their party, cialon On a point of constitutional law, having been rendered by the* highest court capable of rendering it, shall then be submitted to popular vote to determine whether it .ought to be sustained. Again, the Democratic party In cpngress and convention'shows its desire to weaken the courts by forbidding the. use of the writ of injunction to protect a lawful business against the destructive effect of a secondary boycott, and by interposing a Jury in contempt proceedings brought t6 enforce' its order and decrees." These provisions are really class legislation designed to secure immunity for lawlessness in labor disputes on the part of the laborers, but operating much more widely to paralyze the arm of the court In cases which do not involve labor disputes at all. The hostility to the judiciary and the mea» ures to take away its power and its Independence constitute the chief defl* nite policy that can be fairly attribute ed to that class of statesmen and re formers whose absorption and control the Republican party escaped at Chicago and the Democratic party yielded to at Baltimore. Such Innovations Rejected. The Republican party, Mr. Taft continued, stands for none of these innovations. It refuses to make changes simply for the purpose of making a change, and cultivating popular hope that in the change something beneficial, undefined, will take place. The Republican party believes in progress along the lines upon which we have attained progress already. The president then devoted some time to a review of what has been accomplished during his administration, including a warm defense of the Payne tariff bill. In conclusion he said: I can not think that the American people, after the scrutiny and education of a three-months' campaign, during which they will be able to see through the fog of misrepresentation and demagoguery, will fall to recognize that the two great issues which are here presented to them are. first, whether we shall retain, on a sound and permanent basis, our popular constitutional representative form of government, with the independence of the Judiciary as a necessary key to the preservation of those liberties that are the Inheritance of 1,000 years, and, second, whether we shall welcome prosperity which is just at our door by maintaining our present economic business basis and by the encouragement of business expansion and progress through legitimate use of capital. Appeal to All Conservatives. I know that In this wide country there are many who call themselves Democrats, who view, with the same aversion that we Republicans do, the radical propositions of change In our form of government that are recklessly advanced to satisfy what Is supposed to be popular clamor. They are men who revere the constitution and the institutions of their government with all the love and respect that we could possibly have, men who deprecate disturbance in business conditions, and are yearning for that quiet from demagogic agitation which is essential to the enjoyment by the whole people of the great prosperity which the good crops and the present conditions ought to bring to ui. To them I appeal, as to all Republicans, to Join us in an earnest effort to avert the political and economic revolution and business paralysis which Republican defeat will bring about Such misfortune will fall most heavily on the wage earner, May we not hope that he will see what his real interest is, understand the shallowness of attacks upon existing institutions and deceitful promises of undefined benefits by undefined changes? May we not hope that the great majority of voters will be able to distinguish between the substance of performance and the fustian of promise; that they may be able to see that those who would deliberately stir up discontent and create hostility toward those who are conducting legitimate business enterprises, and who represent the business progress of the country, are Bowing dragons' teeth? Who • are the people? They are not alone the unfortunate and the weak; they are the weak and the strong, the poor and the rich, and the many who are neither, the wage earner and the capitalist, the farmer and the professional man, the merchant and the manufacturer, the storekeeper and the clerk, tbe railroad manager and the employe —they all make up the people and they all contribute to the running of the government, and they have not any of them given into the hands of anyone the mandate to speak for them as peculiarly the people's representative. Especially does not he represent them who, assuming that the people are the unfortunate and discontented, would stir them up against the remainder of those whose government alike this is. In other campaigns be* fore this, the American people have been confused and misled and diverted from tbe truth and from a clear per* ceptlon of their welfare by specious appeals to their prejudices and -their misunderstanding, but the clarifying; NEW YORK POLICE - 1 ^ - ^ - - *sfciteu«iiM JJC:£»> LlsTU^i * E C K * t f ^ t t f t t t T S t ) * « * T H E MURDER OF ROSENTHAL,, THE GAMBLER. > « i f ' \ * .

'Rosenthal murd«r, 'Was been a- member of the New York police force for nearly 20 years, his appointment dating back to Nov, 1,18&3. The first serious case in which Becker was concerned was the shoot, ing dead of a youuj; plumber's helper, John Fay, wtio was killed in a burglar chase. Becker and another policeman were suspended following an investigation, but were later reinstated. Becker was placed in charge of the so-called strong arm squad on June 30, 1911. Since that time he has been much in the public eye, making many spectacular raids. Last March a man was killed by a bullet Qred during one of his raids. Becker was relieved from charge of the Bquad for a time, but was later reassigned to ltwi. >/• During the year he was in charge of the strong arm squad Becker raadB more than 75 raids, including the attack on Rosenthal's gambling place on April, 1$. v: l ., Herford Marshall, cbtfflsel for "Jack Sullivan'* (Jacob Reich), the .gobetween between Lieut. Becker und Jack Rose, now held in the Tombs In connection with the case, announced that Sullivan was ready to tell all ne knew on the witness stand and that his Btory would prove more astounding than any yet told. Sullivaui he said, would not talk to the police or the district attorney. The indictment and arrest of Police Lieutenant Charles A. Becker for the murder of the gambler, Herman Rosenthal, soon after the confession of "Bald Jack" Rose, "Bridgie" Webber and Harry Vallon, revealed to District Attorney Whitman the "police system" In all its hideousness. The public prosecutor, following the trail of the three confessions, continued his search for evidence that would implicate those higher up than Becker, and more indictments of police officials are expected by the district attorney, Mr. Reynolds, who has been a member of the tariff board, Is the new secretary of the Republican national committee.

Baker in the Tombs' for the murder of Herman Rosenthal the New York gambler, Rose said that Becker had told him that $2,400,000 was the yearly police graft from gambling, disorderly houses and other forms of blackmail. Rose swore that Becker hnd confided to him the loot was divided among four police officials; Becker himself, the policemen of higher rank and a minor official who does not wear a uniform, "Jack," said Becker, "the rakeoff is so good that my own share was $600,000 and the others got the same." Becker's collector having handled a good deal of the money himself, does not think that Becker or any individual pocketed $600,000 In any one year, but that Becker and his connections were distributing agents, and. .that the $§00,000 each, received was subdivided. There is Just one chance for Uecker to save himself. The district attorney may conclude to deal leniently with the lieutenant if he can and will tell the truth about who else received the profits of blackmail. i . i . . . . . .

Coal dealers anticipate that by October the anthracite shortage in New York and other cities will amount to 6,500,000 tons. This shortage, caused by the cessation of mining in April and May, will begin to be felt severely, it is believed, as soon as the winter demand for coal begins. Nova Scolia dealers who have found it impossible to fill their orders in their territory went to.New York and placed orders with the wholesalers. The mayor of Toronto, it is stated, haB cabled to Wales for Welsh anthracite, which is Inferior to ihe American article. Canada Das Sufficient Coal for 6901 Years It Has Enough Agricultural Land for the Settling of Millions. Philadelphia May Sell Foods. Director Cooke of the municipal department of supplies in Philadelphia, is collecting data with the idea of solving the high cost of living by opening co-operative stores for the benefit of the city employes. It develops that Director Cocke has been studying the methods of Mayor Shank of Indianapolis, and if the plan can be worked out successfully there will be a chain of grocery stores and meat markets and vegetable stands taking in every section of the city and to be run by the city. The ease or difficulty experienced in eradicating Canada thistles depends on the kind of soil and the character of'the crops In the rotation. As they propagate readily by root-stalks which run under the ground, they spread more rapidly and are much more difficult to eradicate in loose, open, porous soils than In heavy clays. Grain crops are more favorable for their continuance than cultivated crops such as corn, beans, roots, etc., providing the latter are properly cared for. I. Canada thistles can be completely eradicated in a Blngle season by thorough summer fallowing, but this la an expensive system and should not be employed unless an entire field has been taken possession of so aa to make it Impossible to grow a crop. II, The best method is to follow with two cultivated crops in succession, as corn after corn, with manure applied between the two crops if possible. Cultivate thoroughly, using thistle sweeps on the cultivator; these are cultivator points with wings and are from eight to ten inches wide; they can be attached to almost any cultivator with sweeps after the corn Is too big for a two-horse rig. Check row corn if possible so as to cultivate both ways. If thistles are in patches wbfch"are not too numerous, give these spots more frequent cultivation than the balance of the field. The secret of success consists in keeping the tklstles underground; this done, they must smother. If two cultivated crops cannot be grown in succession and if the thistles are not all killed the first year, sow the clean portions of the field to grain and seed to clover or grass. New Queen of the Dairy World 30CBB ...With a record of 1,058.34 pounds of butterfat produced In 365 days, Banostine Belle DeKol, a five-year-old Hoistem Friesian cow owned by Dan Dunnick eV Bro., Ohio, becomes, the new ,';Queen of the Dairy World." This wonderful cow produced during the year 27,404.4 pounds of milk, testing 3.86 per cent, fat If made Into butter, her fat production would equal 1,822.9 pounds of butter or over 8¼ pounds' per day for 865 days. During the time that Bfcnestme Bell rjeKol was in test she received nearly, If not all the time, more or leas enaUaje and alfalfa. When available she received roots and a mixed grain ration, the foundation of which was bra* and oats. The grain cation was varied to suit the conditions, of the eew from 25 pounds to as low as 8 pounds per day and the estimated mv* eregs amount of grain fed waa 18 to 14 poinds dally.

Then put a hoed crop on the thistle patches the second year, unless they are too numerous and scattered. If mangolds or stock beets or turnips or rutabagas are planted on these patches and if the thistles are killed by August first, clover or grass seed can be sown among the roots and covered lightly with a spike tooth drag. The following year the field will all be seeded. This succeeded admirably with us in eradicating quack grass. III. If Canada thistles are scattered in grain or pasture crops and are not too numerous, they can be subdued by the use of the thistle spud which can be procured of any hardware dealer, though he may not keep them in stock. Mark the patches in some way or other and then cut the thistles off below the ground every ten days or so after they start in the spring. This .tool and the method Just described are satisfactory where the thistles are not too numerous, as where new patches are starting In pasture, grain crops, along fences, in lanes, wpodlots, etc. IV. I have seen Canada thistles completely destroyed by cutting them close to the ground with a scythe Just as the blossoms opened, but this probably will not occur except where followed by dry weather and Adverse growing conditions. It is better not to reply upon this method. Success can only be obtained in combatting Canada thistles by follow* ing up the methods of eradication patiently and perseverlngly. Unfortunately the shortage and high price of labor too often prevent the farmer from doing the things he wants to at the proper time. a high grade herd without a very great expense.

The estimates siren are only based on what la known. In the western and northern regions, which have been little explored, there may he yast deposits of which nothing whatever U known at present. The officials of the department estimate that of bituminous coal there is in Canada 73½ billion tons; of anthracite 461' million tons; sub-bituminous and lignite over 100 billion tons. The Quantity of coal now annually mined in Canada is about 12 million tons. With an estimated quantity of unmixed good coal, of 74 billion tons, it would require 6,166 years to exhaust the supply. If the inferior grades were included, supply would last for 14,575 years. Of course the coal demands of Canada will keep on Increasing, but it will be a good many years before the quantity of Canadian coal mined will equal present output of the United States mines. Their annual output is about 500,000,000 tons. At that rate it would take only 145 years* to exhaust the estimated Canadian supply of good coal, and about 350 years to get to the end of the .total supply.

The rapid advancement of railways makes the situation easy. Today one may be located thirty miles from one of the many branches of the different systems. A year from now, the whistle of the locomotive and the long train of cars may pass the farm, the elevator is but a short drive from the home, a splendid market is established, and all the advantages of an old settled community are at hand. The prospects this year from an agricultural standpoint are exceedingly bright, and, relieved of untoward conditions, the farmer is already counting his bank roll, planning for more extensive operations for next year, and figuring on paying out for his farm. He is calculating what the Increased value of his holdings, as a result of a successful crop, will add to his asset*. Already some fields of wheat have been harvested, barley has bean cut, and the yield is above his expectation. In fact, the feeling at the time of writing is that never in the history of any) country on #Vt continent has there been such a prospect of a large average crop, all over the three central provinces of Canada, as will be harvest- Th© Dairy Helps the Farmer In Western Canada. lb; chickens, 12%c: No 2 hens 120A" l-?e: hens, }2<fr ns, »©10c; old roosteV*, te>l6<?r^wok*. 14c; young ducks. 14© 16c; geese.

The agricultural districts of Canada have now become so well known throughout the world, and the vacant area of splendid land is still so great that it may be expected that the numbers mentioned will increase from year to year, and it will not be many years before the immigration figures will reach the million mark. It may be asked what is there to warrant this large immigration? With millions of acres of land, capable of producing twenty-five to forty bushels of wheat to the acre; or, If in oats, from forty to ninety, and even as high as a hundred bushels per acre, or the same splendid yields of flax or barley, there is ample inducement to attract these hundreds of thousands who are filling the present agricultural settlements and pushing forward into the newer settlements year by year, and leave room still for the hundreds of thousands who will follow. There remains not only the agricultural wealth of the country, but there are also the Social advantages, the home-making privileges, apart altogether from the financial opportunities, there is the life and the energy born from the knowledge that the settler is more than a unit in the upbuilding, in the making of a country that will soon rank amongst the first in the nations of the world. There is no desire on the part of the writer to dwell upon the success that has followed the American' settler in the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan- and Alberta and the coast Province of British Columbia, or to speak of the thousandt of individuals whose hundreds of dollars have made them thousands, but attention must be paid to the fact that these people have done well. They are followed by their families and their friends, who also are doing welt Where, a few years ago, seemingly only months ago, there was nothing but the open prairie, tor if we speak of the more central portions of* these 'provinces, the park districts, there are today well tilled and cultivated farms, large farms, too, and the hsrds of cattie.

The railroads are adding to their already large mileage and have got ready for handling the crop thousands of box cars. The government agents and the railways are making arrangements for from fifty to sixty thousand extra farm hands in order that the crop may be successfully and quickly harvested, business men are laying in larger stocks than usual, real estate men are active, preparing for the rush of business that Is sure to follow, and everywhere there is the note of optimism, which seems to be perfectly Justifiable. There is, as has been said, a vast area of the country still open for settlement and homesteadlng lying in the center north. Speaking of this part a writer, who made the trip when the crop was !:i Its green stage, said: "Just nc -.', the whole country is a beautiful s.';,iit, as it presents Itself in full dre3s of living green, varied in shade, many places elegantly fringed and Interspersed with pleattngs of shrubbery and patches of sweet scented flowers in,rose, yellow, white, pink, scarlet, cardinal and purple. In traveling over the virgin soil, I have seen some of the most charming rolling prairies, sloping hills, deep ravines, mirrored lakes, artistic flower fields, and natural parks that one could wish to behold, and all placed there without the aid of man. The land in general is heavily matted with grass, mixed with retches and pea vines, nearly tip to the knee, and many millions of acres of which are going to waste while beef, pork and mutton are soaring at prices heretofore unknown. The comparatively small acreage under cultivation reminds one of a few small garden patches. "When we consider the estimated crop, of 300,000,000 bushels of whsst for 1912, to be produced on thess western prairies from thess garden pstches, some faint ides, can be formed by aa imaginative mind as to the immense possibilities sad rich heritage of a glorious western Canada;* The estimate of the wheat crop, *s made by the writer quoted, is excessive, but with even 250 million bushels, there will be a great deal of satisfaction on the part of the settlers.

This ia partly on account of the particularly heavy eeatraffic to the vicinity, bat it Is chiefly due to Cape Cod. It J# this crooked finger of land that haa beckoned % thousand ships to their doom and which in the iiollowa of its dunes holds many a tragic story Of lives snuffed out In deaperate grapple with wjave and. wind, < .. The night of Tuesday, March 11, 1902, was •Wild and storm-strewn. Running up along the •coasts the ocean-going tug Sweepstakes was, making bad weather with her tow of the two big barges, Wadena and John C. Flttpatrtck. For" hours the triple-expansion engines of the tug had been churning her Bcrew In the drift of the heavy head sea and shortly before daylight her •-captain discovered that she-was making no headway. He then decided to lie to and, while feelring about for. an anchorabe in the gloom, the bargee ran aground on the edge of Shovelful • Shoal, oat the southern end of Monoxnoy island, Massachusetts. When daylight came, the crew of the afonomoy 'life saving station boarded the barges, but finding tt'impoaeible ta. float them on the flood tide, took ^ their crew* ashore. It was six day* later that the disaster occurred Wreckers sent from Boston were at work on the barges. The ttig rtter Smith waa on the ground, having replaced the Sweepetakee. On the night of the 16th the weather thickened .and a gale swept In from ,the sea. **The night passed without incident, but early wa\ the morning of the 17th Keeper Eldridge of the Jlonemoy station received a telephone from i tha captain Of thji Smith asking him if every- ; thing was all rlgbi'oa the Wadena. This alarmed BVaadge. aa he did not know any one had been left ten the foerge all night. He started at once . for the point of the iseand, three miles away, to look over the situation. The Wadena lay half a mile off ah ore from the point She seemed to • be riding easily an the bar, but the distress was • flying from her rigging. This waa a signal Eld- ; ridge could not Ignore. « ft waa a terrific pull through the breakers that rolled In across the shoals to the Wadena, but the life-savers accomplished It and put their boat tinder the lee of the barge at about noon. Keeper Eldridge then directed the men to get into the snirfboat tad told thm that he would take them ashore. The rail of the big barge was a dozen feet from the water and it was here that the trouble began. The men on the barge lowered themselves over* aide on a rope, but as Captain Oisen, a very large man, waa halfway down, he lost his hold and fell on the second thwart of the lifeboat, breaking 'it and making It impossible for the rowers to use it. In addition, the boat waa crowded and the wind, which had been momentarily increasing, was tumbling huge combers into the wind- -ward of the barge. It waa Into this maelstrom of breakers that it waa necessary for the handl- -capped crew of the life-saving station to pull thetr overloaded; boat, and they made a swift rand able attempt to accomplish it At the Instant 'the starboard oarsmen were swinging the head of 'the life-boat to meet the sea, a giant comber lifted •under the quarter and dished a barrel of water -overside. That was the signal for a panic among the rescued men that before It subsided, cost •twelve lives. • The Portuguese wreckers, in a frenzy of fear, <*tood up in the boat rocking it to and fro in tffcelr endeavors to escape "the momentary inrush erf water* and though the life-savers TonghVto force them into the bottom of the craft this V-ooold not be done before the next shouldering -wdsmve .caa£hjt the bow of the boat swung her ' earoedslde and turned her over. < T i * h * * w ^ A . fMcsUrtirttrd* <oleewai« thS' breakers were jsanashlng themselves into white foam on the bar. There, was Just one, chance, in a million that the ftent could borighW Veto* the sen! carried her 'Into them. Once aha., reached them it would be <*tl' over. Hampered by the wreckers, the lifetwavers (ought desperately in those few minutes left before the combers should be reached. Three »^Hpes they righted the boat and strove heroically •to ball her, but each thne she waa again aver- 'turned. They were fighting the last tragic fight Every Man Hat where on grasp on the gunwale several times, disappeared I in the maelstrom of water. Thai left Ellis and %. Rogers, a big and very strong mam. ~* In this desperate moment Rogers threw his arms around the other surf man's neck In a death- " grip. For moments, while the sea battered and the foam strangled them, they fought the last : grim fight far life, Ellis to break the grip of his ?' frenzied comrade, Rogers to retain tt. Suddenly. ?•',: when it seemed that both muat dTown, Rogers' '\ strength left him. His arms relaxed; his eyes ' glazed. "I'm going!" he gasped and sank. A moment! later the boat drifted Inshore of the "" outer breakers and for a brief space was in ' smoother water. Ellis once more crawled out on the bottom and succeeded In pulling the center- • board out set that he could bold ott to it and better maintain his position. Now, you will remember that at the time of ** the stranding of the Wadena, the- John C. Fita- V'T patrlck, her slsteT barge had also gone aground. She had gone over the outer bar and was iy4ng between it and the inner breakers, On board her was Oapt. Elmer F. Mayo, of Chatham, who waa in charge ef lightening her, Thar ffcspatrick waa so far away from the Wadena that Captain Mayo, and two other men who were v*tt* him, did .not see the Itfe-savlog boat go out, nor did they have . any knowledge of the grim tragedy that was being : enacted, until, glancing over the rail, Captain ' Mayo saw an overturned life-boat with a single ' man clinging to it. The capsized boat was some* distance from the barge, but Mayo did not hesttate. 'Til get that fellow," he announced coolly/. On the deck of the Fltapotrick lay a small twelve-foot dory, the only boat aboard, a totally unfit craft for the furious sea that was thundering across the shoals. Kicking off his boots, Mayo and the other men, who begged him not to go aa It would be certain death, ran the dory overside. How the captain of the wrecking crew kept his fragile craft afloat, those who watched him from the Fitzpatrlck could nover understand. But he did keep her afloat and the set of the tide and the gale carried blm down toward the capalsed life-boat to which Sills clung now with the last of hla ebbing strength. • The life-saver said afterward that? he saw a dory thrown over the side of the Fitzpatrlck aa he drifted near her, but that a moment later the scud and the spindrift were driven so thick and caAseJoasly fcetota hla eyes that he aaw nothing, until suddenly out of 'the mist a tiny, bobWaaT boat loomed a dozen feet away. Then the occupant of this boat shot her skilfully xkmgilde the swamped life-boat and the exhausted snrtmsn toppled into her. Mayo, with the half-conacious life-saver tying Ump in the bottom of the dory, had kept hla word to his mates on the Fitzpatrlck. * Necessarily, the moot thrilling stories of the coast-watchers are those in which loss of life is entailed and therefore, In a measure, they are accounts of the failures of the men of the service. But they are stories of noble failures and behind some pf them lie tragedies other than those of nwath. Perhaps one of the greatest ct these is woven about the career of Captain David H. Atkins, on they were^irept inftyth* smothering foanv-* itt November JO, 1880, keeper of the Peaked KlU & • * • ' & . K-"' eX th* bar.

Th* alght of Novemoe* 80, 1880, was clear but windy. A heavy gale was piling the surf over the outer bar off the- Peaked Hill Bar station. Surfmenv Fisher and Kettey left the stations at four o'cloirk to make the eastward and westward patrol; Kelley started from the door fired. Aa he dfd so he heard the? slatting of sails ami the banging of blocka above* the wind. At the westward he saw the lights at a vessel close inshore. Shouting to Fisher to give the alarm, he ran down the beach, burning his Coston light. Keeper Atfctns glanced' at the surf and ordered out the boat. The men dragged it eastward1 until they were opposite the stranded vessel, which proved to be the sloop C. E. Trumbull of Rockport The crew manned1 the boat. The story of what took place out there mnder the darkness on Keeper Atkins' last errand of rescue is best told, perhaps, in the personal account of Isaiah Young, one of the survivor* The narrative of this man, fn his own words, 1» taken from the Life Saving Report of 1881. It reads: "When we launched1, the vessel was still some to the eastward. We went off In this manner to take advantage of the tide that was running to the eastward between the bar and the shore. It was low tide. Tha sea was smooths on the shore, but on the bar, where the vessel1 lay, it waa rough enough to he>dangerous. "We hauled up from the boat until the bow lapped on to her qanrter. Keeper Atkins called to them to jump in. "We landed four persons. Thts trip could not have consumed more than fifteen minutes "When we polled np again, after being thrown back, Taylor stood hr ike bow with thevrtoe ready to*heave.,.! cautioned Keeper ^klnnito have a oare lot the boom.

He adds, "These men were in' advance of the. guna." Aa guns do not ordinarily ahoot backward, the minister's cryptic explanation may be considered super* fluous. The incident is, perhaps, interesting chiefly because of the light it throws on Ruasia'jrofficial attitude toward the value of human life. It fits in aptly with the "reports or executions, imprlsonmenta and exiles which, coming from all parts of the czar's domains, keep the world fn; formed of'the progress of heartless oppression. It is not surprising that the empire Is rocked with discontent, that observers believe the government faces another costly revolution. A nation cannot place so low a value x>n the lives of HB subjects without ultimately reaping Its reward in blood and terror. Accidents in military maneuvers are not uncommon. They have occurred in the United States, and, doubtless, will continue to occur from time to time as long as military training is held a necessary part of every nation's list of obligations. It has remained for Russia, however, to aend soldiers "in advance of the guns" to be shot, and for a minister of the czar's government to announce the blunder to the world with aa much unconcern, apparently, as he might announce the departure of a detachment for patrol duty on the Persian frontier. be put In the front, and a door in one end.

Some years ago a publishing house was preparing to issue a new edition of the writings of Thoreau, writes Charles S. Olcott in Art and Progress. The head of the house and a member of his staff were in consultation about the method of illustration. It was agreed that the pictures must be true to nature; but how to get them was the problem. Artists who do book illustrating could not be expected to go intp the woods and make pictures which would In any way assist the text to reveal nature as Thoreau saw it. Photographs would be admirable, bnt where was the professional photographer to be found who would undertake to go Into Thoreau's country In sunshine and, rain, in summer, and winter, to catch all the phases of nature whieh Thoreau recorded in**fale. "Journal"? While the two men pondered, a caller sat In the outer office with a large portfolio under hie arm. Five years before'he had read Thoreau's "Journal," and had taken up his residence In Concord that he might visit the scenes there described. In' all seasons and all kinds of weather he had wandered through the woods and over the fields with his camera; passionately fond of nature, he was ho less devoted to art. To him, photography was a pastime—it was not his profession. For the pure love of nature and of art, and with no thought of pecuniary gain, he had accomplished the very feat which the two business men had thought BO difficult, and by a curious coincidence he appeared at the office to exhibit the result'of MARGIN OF PROFIT AND LOSS his work at the precise moment whsa Its desirability was being discusses. Record of the Coat of Production and ' •alter Will Determine Whether Htnt Art Paying. We carry upon the same land more than 5 0 per cent more cattle than we did before we had the S I L O S and whatever the correct theory of the matter may be, this solid hard fact is sufficient to satisfy us that very much more can be got out of the corn fed in the form of Silage than when fed dry in any manner which is practicable with us.

Music has long been notoriously a provoker of discord. Once in my news-hunting days I suffered the ignominy of a scoop on a choir rumpus, and I thereupon formed the habit of lending an anxious ear to rumors of trouble in choir lofts. The average ladder-like Te Deum, built up for the display of the soprano's vocal proweta, hat always struek me aa an unholy thing. I even believe that the horrors of highly embellished offertories have done much to tighten pursestrings and deaden generous Impulses, the presence behind the pulpit of a languid quartette praising God on behalf of the bored sinners in the pews hat always teemed' to me the profanest of anomalies. Nor hat long contemplation of vetted choirs in Episcopal churches shaken my belief that choir music should be an affair of tha congregation.—Meredith Nicholson, lit the Atlantic. ^ Mortgage Foreclosure Whereas default has been made in (be payment of the money secured by a mortgage dated the first day of November in the year one thousand eight hundred niotyeight, executed by George I.

A remedy that does not perform b y force w h a t should be accomplished by persuasion is Dc. Miles' Ujcauve Tablets. After usinK them, Mr. N. A ^ * d d e l l , 3 i 5 Washington St., Waco,.... Tex., says: ' * '", *A!*oer"ail my life I have bees troubled with constipation, tinC have tiled many remedies, all of which setmed to cause pain without givingmuch relief.- I finally tried D o Mllea' I^ixatl\e Tablets and found them excellent. Th»-ir action Is pleaatuit a n * mild, and their chocolate t&ata makes them easy to take. I am more than glad to recommend them." "Clean up the bowels and keep them clean," is the advice of all physicians, because they realize the danger resulting from habitual constipation. Do not delay too lonf, but begin proper curative measures. Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets a r e a new remedy for this old complaint, and a great improvement over the cathartics you have been using in the past. They taste like candy and work like a charm. A trial will convince you. Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are sold by all druggists, at 25 cents a box containing 25 doses. If not found satisfactory after trial, return the box to your druggist and he will return your money.

A c ^ r e r in safesmajiehlp 1B offered to youn*, women, and the Chicago department stores are permitting some of their employes to attend it during what would otherwise be working hourey not only paying .their salaries for the who!*, time, but also paying their carfare kto: and from the school. This i s Hke the work which Is being dbne in technical schools In parts of Oclrmahy, where boys and girls have a certain number of hours a week free, from work and receive instruction in. the work at which they are employed. Employers In Germany, where the system, has been established for some time, co-operate Just as gladly as Chicago employers are said to^be co-operating in the present experiment. They are reported as finding it to their advantage to do so. It Is easy to see why a good many, especially of the larger employers of labor! should find It to their advantage here a s well as there. Take the case og>-, salesmanship, which is being taught In Chicago. Some large stores have s o strongly felt the need of instruction in it that they have established schools of salesmanship of their own where experts lecture and give advice to ambitious employes. In this way U is possible to develop better salesmen and saleswomen. * * « " » * ^ f " Perhaps no woman in Tennessee Is doing a more practical and helpful work than Miss Virginia Pearl Moore, who is at the bead of the Sehool Improvement work of the state, and who has recently been appointed by the Bureau of Education of the United States, organizer for Tennessee of girls' tomato clubs. For some time the United States government, through its bureau of education, has been encouraging boys to take an interest In agricultural activities by the organization of corn clubs, potato clubs, etc., and now the department, realizing that the girls must be kept on the farm,, a* well as the boys, Is organizing tomata dabs among the .girls all over the country. Miss Moore has been appointed state organizer of these clubs In Tennessee, and though she only received her appointment a few months ago, there are now about 1,000 Tennessee girls enrolled In the various tomato clubs of the state, sajs the Knoxville Journal and Tribune. The object of. the work is to aOqrd girls In the rural districts an Intelligent interest and an income, that they may be kept on the farms happy and satisfied instead of coming to the city where they join the anemic procession of mill and shop girls. > / , '•- I—z ^ What is perhaps the most remark able graveyard* in the United States adjoins the old Spanish church in the ancient Indian pueblo of Acogaa, N.

Uniontown, Lemont, Mt. Braddock, Conhellsville and Dunbar, Pa., were inundated. In Turtle Creek valley the damage is enormous and Bcores of families are homeless in the upper Youghiogheny valley. Railroad traffic through a great territory Is demoralized, especially so at Uniontown, where the tracks of two railways were torn from their foundations. ' Several towns are without railroad, mail, telephone and telegraph connections. Prom West Virginia cities no reports can be obtained because telegraph wires are down. Early morning hours brought at least oqe joy, and that was daylight. Camp fires, candles and oil lamps had shown the scene of devastation wrought by torrential rains in weird fashion, and all were thankful when darkness passed. Everywhere there was a picture of widespread desolation, a vivid reminder of the swirling, raging waters that had taken many human lives and caused much ruin.- The places and the number reported to have drowned at each are as follows: Uniontown, Pa., 15 drowned. Smock, Pa., located in Redstone valley, 14 reported drowned. Grindstone, Pa.,.. 12 rnipers missing, and reported drowned. At 'Lynri, Pa., 'two miners reported drowned. At" Wheeling, W.

Va., one drowned. Fairmont, W. Va., two drowned. Of this list of Gj fatalities it has been possible to account definitely for 23, Those who are known to have met death are at Uniontown,s Wheeling, Ellen wood, Fairmont andMonOn-! gahela. Admittedly, the death list will not be known for many days to come. A Jarge number of mines werg^ flooded In a short space of time. Workingmen were compelled to flee for their lives.

Scientific feeding of all the patients at the,, Michigan hospitals for the insane will be instituted as a result of the Joint board meeting. The plan is in accordance with Gov, Osborn's idea and-had Its Inception from the fact that the rate of maintenance at the state institutions is considered too high. The principal object to be accomplished from the new order will be a reduction in'meat eating. The board fixed the allowance for th* inmate* of the state hospitals for the coming year. This amount, which is regulated by the board, with the concurrence of Gov. Osborn, includes everything with the exception of clothing. The rates,for the ensuing year were placed as follows: Kalamazoo, 48 cents; Pontiae, 49 cents; Traverse City, 501 cents; Newberry, 50¼ c«ats.

"The recent decision of the .supreme court in the D. & M. railroad rate case is, a 'great victory for the state railroad commission," said Chairman Glasgow. "The decision settles the question whether the commission is vested with the power to fix rates.' In the particular case it was tfo't a question of making an entire new rate, in one sense, but rather to -lower rates. However, the opinion gives .us the right either to lower or raise freight rates, a power which we have alwayB supposed we had, yet were not certain. The decision will mean that several • fights now being |put up by railroads in attempts to prevent the commission from changing rates will be dropped, as already- manifested in communications received by us.

Must , M Be bvtrtooked—Koep Up l Records of Anlmalt. A well-selected breed of pure-bred cattle la a'source of much pleasure as well as profit, but to be successful details must not be overlooked. Many breeders and beginners are tod careless. T;hey keep no accurate records of births, neglect their cattle, fall to keep up the records, do not take proper care of their cattle in winter, and are often caught 'with a lot of surplus and unmerchantable bulls on hand and no buyers. Let me add that the only way to dispose of surplus stock is by judicious advertising in some good farm and stock paper, says a writer in an exchange. • Keep your herd In nice, healthy condition, so you will not be ashamed to show your stock to prospective buyers. Make a yearly exhibit at a few leading state and county fairs and present your stock in the most attractive form at home, as well as at the •fairs.- In describing your Bale stock to prospective A Pure-Bred Hereeford. buyers by mail or otherwlbe, never overestimate the merits of an animal. Make good every statement, and make every buyer a friend. It is cheaper to retain your old customers than to hunt new ones. There is no better way to restore or keep up the fertility of your soil than by keeping a herd of beef cattle, saving and applying the manure. A liberal supply of both grain and rough feed should be grown and consumed by the cattle. They should be kept well-bedded in the barns and all strawstacks converted into manure and returned to the soil. A well-bred animal will not consume as much food as a , scrub, and will always sell atfa profit, even if sent,to tne butcher. The best individuals will bring a fair profit to the owner when sold for breeding purposes. 1SAVE GRAIN IN FEEDING HOGS Two Troughs Conveniently Arranged , That When Corn Is Devoured J More Will Follow. • Make two troughs six or seven Inches wide and two and one-half feet long...

' < ! - , - ' - , ; • ' ' • • • ' • ' • & ' <By *• 1. W. ZMOSAM.) . Sows should ha retained for a aumber of years until their pla'ces can be filled with their equals. It is welt known that the progeny from mature parents, are superior Xp those descended from young progenitors not fully developed. Boars and sows for breeding should be kept in a good thrifty condition but not fat. The writer has always been troubled to keep hit breeding sows from becoming' too fat and consequently farrowing a small number of scrawny Pi*«u I oace took a large sow to fatten for one-half the pork. I did not know she was with pig and fed her all the corn .meal and wheat middlings she would eat. Imagine my astonishment and vexation when she had three little dwarfed pigs—not only smaller than pigs usually are when first farrowed, but emaciated. Sows for breeding should not be allowed to run with the fattening bogs fed on corn but kept in a pasture by themselves and given a plentiful supply of slop made of equal parts of wheat' shorts, corn meal and wheat bran. MoBt young sows will breed when three monthB old if "allowed to run with a boar, but eight or twelve months Is as young as is judicious to breed them. The pigs from large-bodied, old sows will be more in number and frequently double the size of pigs from young sows when farrowed, and this with the same feed and care and will frequently weigh 50 per cent more at a year old. Not only this, but it stunts or dwarfs the growth of such young things permanently and they never attain good size. GOOD FEED-RACK FOR SHEEP Grain Trough P(aoed Beneath Saves Chaff and Leaves, Most Nourishing Part of Peed. (By J. W. GOODWIN.) The rack Is made with a pole for the bottom rail and a piece of 2x6 inch scantling for the top rail. The crossbars are pieces riven from an old piece of timber. These crossbars are four feet long and about one and one-half Inches in Feed Rack for Sheep. diameter, shaved smooth with a drawing- knife. The holes in the top and bottom rails are made with an inch-auger. The crossbars are trimmed to fit the holes and then wedged to hold them The bottom rail is held in place against the side of the barn by two strips of heavy sheet-iron which baa been bent to fit around the pole. The top rail is secured by a piece of half-inch rope which passes over a pulley located Itf'a hole in the wall above the rack, a weight being attached to the outside end of rope, serving to always keep the rack against the wall. When the hay is put in, the rack is drawn down, and when filled is pushed back against the wall, holding the hay in place closely and kept in place by the weight The grain trough placed beneath and in front of the rack serves as a receptacle for the chaff and leaves of the hay—the best and most nourishing part of the feed whleh would otherwise be pulled under foot and lost as food. .-* ''•^ Raising tartytewlNr f. i i t W t o t * oojeet *J* rat******** lamb* ti <to' paodace a fine animal Of Coe4*4a**Ml .ntah^tud g*t~Wav toil it To dokiaotiojysi g y a i e g j ^nfrjggo, should be an ounsteadlag tag, good o r e a t * good awajgggtat, jaaftMaaL pomiarng aE the nwk ,<ro»4»*4*M he U t»«e-MMtf**-1r ^ ch*«ct4rtatte of the breed jetnt-to Market.

Just about the time of the ripening of the fruit of plums and cherries, the fruit grower notices "that trees have a ragged look and in many cases, they lose their natural green color and become a sickly yellow, If a leaf Is examined, It Is found that It Is thickly peppered with small, round spots or in many eases, Instead of their being a spot or dea^acea, there Is nothing left but a circular hole In the leaf. These are'the symptoms of leaf spot of plums and cherries or as it is sometimes called, th^e "shot-hole" fungus disease. The cause of this disease is a fungus and. each spot on .the leaf is a fungus colony. A parasitic fungus is a plant which gets its food from other plants, to other words, steals Its living. Fungi reproduce by minute bodies called spores and these serve the purpose of spreading the fungus. These spores are very small, light and are wafted about by small currents of air. When a spore falls upon a leaf and is given the right condition of moisture and temperature, it germinates, enters the leaf and causes the diseased area. After making extensive growth in the leaf, the fungus produces fruiting bodies—more spores to blow about and causes more leaf spots. Lose. The loss caused by this fungus is one which is often overlooked by the farmer, although it is usually a severe one. Since this attack, for the most part, comes after the present crop of fruit is picked, the loss will be noticed in the next year's crop for It is a well known fact that when the leaves of a tree are diseased, the food-producing power of that tree is cut down. Given a tree with practically every leaf affected by this leaf spot disease and you nave a tree with very small food-producing power. There will be very little food stored up in the tissues and there will, therefore, he a weak growth next Bprlng and a very poor crop of fruit. Control, To control this disease, one merely needs to apply a fungicide to the leaves and kill the spores or their iprouts before they have a chance tb enter the tissues.

There are, however, many farmers who do not give this manor the attention It deserves, and we are led to inquire whether they are fully convinced that it Is a matter of dollars and cents, or, on the other hand, one of carelessness and neglect. It le difficult to produce figures showing that there is a definite saving in the proper housing and care of farm equipment of the kind mentioned. It has been demonstrated, however, and is yearly being shown that such is the case- In almost any community examples can be found where the period of usefulness of machinery, well protected and cared for, is nearly double that on adjoining farms where It Is left to the ravages of the weather, with no system of keeping in order. As showing further the need of more careful attention to this phase of farm management the following figures are presented. Though some assumptions are made as to the period of usefulness of the machine In question they are based on the judgment of good authorities and may be verified by the experience of tho reader. By making a list of the implements and tools required on a 160- acre farm it will be found that their value will not be far from $1,000. Property housed and cared for the toolB referred to should have a period of usefulness of twelve years. On this assumption the yearly cost would be nearly $85. The annual or yearly cost in each case is found by dividing the first cost by the period of time in use. Taking eight years as the period of usefulness for unprotected equpment it will be found that the annual cost would be $120. Now an implement house to protect this machinery could be constructed at a cost of from $2 to $2.50. Using the latter figure and assuming that the house could be used for 16 years, a yearly cost of nearly $17 would be shown. Not taking into account interest on investment for the purpose in mind the total annual cost of protected machinery would be $S5 plus $17 equals $102, SB against an annual cost of $120 per y earf or unprotected. From these figures a saving of $18 per year will be shown. It should be remarked, too, that In a well-designed Implement house the work of caring for implements Is not Increased. It Is often more expedient to drive a machine under cover than to spend time In covering it with canvas or otherwise protecting It temporarily in the field, as must be done, for instance, with the binder. The Implement house should have ample floor space. Height Is not so essential, but space may often be economized by using a hoist of some description to lift and hang the lighter tools and implements off the floor. This would be desirable, particularly for Implements or tools used only for short periods of the year. The implement floor should also be open and free from posts if possible to facilitate moving the larger units. The doors should be wide enough to accommodate any implement and close enough together to permit taking machines out of the building without making it necessary to move a great number of others. It might also be said tn this connection that an effort should be made to group together those Implements in use at the same time. Using this scheme, the whole group may be taken out at once.

Where it's forced oww the end of a gas stove pipe, for instance? I know one really ought to have iron pipe connections made by a gas fitter, but sometimes one has to put up with rubber pipe as a temporary convenience." "I know," said the Little Wise Lady. 'Those things will happen sometimes, and the quickest way of heading off trouble is by using ordinary half-inch adhesive, such as comets in little roHs, and to wind ('strap' is a better word) several thicknesses of it around each end of the rubber hose, after it is forced into place on the stove or gaspipe. It holds the edges firm and prevents the tension which cracky the rubber. Of course, one might use rubber cement, but It's a fussy thing to tinker with, and there is an the bother of waiting for It to dry. Adhesive— take It all together—is one of the most useful things to have around the house of which I've any record. Try It next time your rubber hot water bottle springs a tiny leak—two or three layers of it—of course making sure that the rubber surface ia dry before putting it on.

A sweater is one of the necessities of the wardrobe. No other wrap can take its place. The dainty woman always prefers the creamy white ones, but often hesitates to buy because ot the seeming difficulty of cleaning them. The following method simplifies that process, so that no one need hesitate to buy one on that account. Woollen blankets may be cleaned in the same manner. A quarter of a bar of a good white soap is melted over the stove. To this is added about half a cup of ammonia. Enough hot water is run Into the pan or tub to cover the sweater. The soap and ammonia are stirred In, and then the sweater is placed In. With a stick on the top of a washboard this is stirred and turned until the dirt is out. Rinse In several waters, then lay on a slanting board to drain, but no not squeeze dry. There are several methods of drying. One Is to fasten a sheet flat over several clothes lines and spread the sweater on that in the sun. control measure reUed upon.

Unslacked lime one-half bushel, salt one peck, rice three pounds, Spanish whiting one-half pound, glue one pound. Slack the lime with boiling water and cover it during the operation to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve and add the salt already dissolved in water. Boil the rice to a thin paste and stir it in very hot, then put in the whiting and the glue. Dissolve the glue by soaking several hours in cold water, then place in double boiler and heat slowly. Use agate or porcelain kettle. Iron will turn the glue dark. Now add five gallons of hot water to the mixture. Stir it well and let it stand two or three days covered from the dust.

The owners of a certain farm had better and eggs brought them dally by the daughter of the farm. A trained nurse had a case at the owper'a home. One day the farmer's wife and daughter were disqusaing this, when the little boy, who had been listening, said: "Rita, if I go with you tomorrow, will you show me the trained nurse?" The girl said she would, and the next day he accompanied her. The nurse came into the kitchen, said -a few wordB to him, and went out. He ran home at once, and arrived breathless.

Colonel Goethals is a fighter and he will fight a trust as readily as be will fight a labor union. Whole cargoes of tainted meat have been shipped back by the commissary, because the beef trusts' goods were not up to sample. Thousands of square yards of screening were condemned and left unpaid for, as soon as it was discovered that the copper trust had put In so much Iron that they were rapidly falling to pieces with rust. Colonel Ooethals is determined that no contractors shall become rich by supplying the Panama canal with rotten food and shoddy material, as so many did in the days ot the De Lesseps company.

Osborne recently inspected the State Sanatorium at Howell and pronounced conditions there filthy, unsanitary and a disgrace to the state. This evidently has gotten on t h e c o m a of the board of control as they have been replying to bis charges through the columns of the newspapers. They do not deny that the above conditions exist, but claim they are unavoidable on account of insuffic ient money appropriations by the legislature, the scarcity of help and the largj number of patients cared for. They also seem to be of the opinion that the Governor should have informed the Sanatorium head of his intended visit. Gov. Osborne has replied to this by saying that it costs the state more to run it than any of its other institutions and they have only 81 patients,while at Coldwater and other state institutions where they have over 1,000- inmates no such conditions exist. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time tbe conditions at the Sanatorium have been critized and it might not be a bad idea for the board to drop in once in a while sort of unexpected like the Governor did.

Men who have acquired fame have never been thrust into popularity by puffs begged or paid for, or given in friendly spirit. They\have outstretched their own bands and touched the public heart. Men who win, love their own wooing and I never knew a man to fall as signaHy as one who induced his grandmother to speak a word for him. Whether you work for fame for love, for money, or for anything else, work with your own hands and heart and brain. Say, "I will," and some day yon will conquer.

Headquarter* Fc^r Migajfinfe BROWN'S DRUG STORE rfaefettey, MH&h. State Fair Features With members of the National GraDge whom N. P. Hull, Vice- President of the Michigan State Agriculture Society and Grand Master of the State Grange interviewed while in the east at the Democratic National Convention the Michigan State Fair proved most interesting and so much so that Oliver Wilson, Grand Master of the National Grange promised to be the gnest of the4 State Fair on Gleaner's Day and address the members of the Boys State Fair School and the young tillers of soil now at work on the miniature model farms. The demonstration of good road building, the new dairy building with demonstrations of butter and cheese making and commercialising of milk, the land show and many other innoviations were all so interesting that it was also purposed to Mr. Hull that an invitation be extended to Gov. Woodrow Wilson, nominee for president of the United states that he be present to open the Fair and this was accordingly done. The prospects according to Mr.Hull are very bright. The object of the directors of the Fair is to creat an tfhnual event of both agricultural amd industrial interests, a Fair to show the real resources of the State was commended heartily by the members of the Grange who believe that a step in the right, direction has been taken. Poor Judgement We have arrived at the conclusion that most of the trouble in this world is caused by so many men and women using poor Judgement, but for heaven's sake don't tell them so. A man who cannot sit beside a keg of beer twenty minutes and keep outside of it, exercises poor judgement. The man who tries to make love to every pretty girl he meets usee poor judgement, and usually winds up in the bug house with his carbuerater busted. The man who goes forth looking for a scrap uses poor judgement;yea verily, for he shall return with his slats caved in and his nose flatened. The man who expects to beat a money slot machine uses poor judgement in dropping in the first nickel— they are fixed to win. The man who disputes a muscular women with a rolling pin uses poor judgement—him for the hospital. A married women who goes skylarking around making goo goo eyes at the men and neglect a good home uses poor judgement, and gets all that is coming to her before the sun finally set* in her life. The gambler, the thief, the gossip, the dope fiend* the agnostic, the drunkard, the wayward in all walks of life use bad judgement. May fool the people and feel real slick about it but yon can't fool the Master of the Universe and the man of good judgement obeys his laws and lives happily,— Fowlerville Standard. U. S.

A Pleasant aid Profitable Evening The concert given here by the Lyric Quartette of Chicago last Wedneaday evening was an unqualified success. Despite the warm weather a large number of people from Pinckney and vicinity attended, and listened appreciatively to a well chosen and well rendered progam. It is alway difficult to induce the farmers, after a hot, tiresome day in the fields to ride perhaps three or four miles to a concert or lecture. The thought of sitting quietly for a couple of hours in a stiff white collar and tight shoes is not always alluring to a tired man. Hence it was gratifying td see the well filled opera house and the close attention of the audience. The animation of the singers, their harmoniously blended voices and the clear ennunciation pleased everyone. The wish was universal that at some ^future date the Lyric Quartette may pass this way again. Real M e Transfers Marion Gates to Jesse Ellsworth 40a. Marion $2300. Fred Salmon and wife to Thos. J.

And then remorseful for her amazed expression, 1 explained frankly: "Got It from your father this morning, don't you know, during our long talk about you In the llbjrarv.'' Then Ehe swallowed and her face fell perfectly blank. By Jove, I could have kicked myself for a Jolly ass for breaking It to her so raw! Of course, she would know that If her father talked of her, It would be nothing for me to hear that waa true or k i n d - nothing she could wish might be said to the man she loved. I hastened to reassure her: "But I don't believe a dashed word of anything he said about you"—1 spoke hotly—"and I don't care a Jolly hang for what the others said, elttier —«o there you are!" "Oh, you^ don't?" Could tell how 1 had touched her by her expression, don't you know; and she fell to looking at me the queerest way. "And would you mind telling me who the 'others' are?" I eyed her gloomily, sympathetically. As If she didn't know already! "Well—oh, dash it, my mind has been filled with—er—Jast anything!" I began cautiously. "I know,"—she murmured it as if to herself—"one can see that!" And she bit tier Up. "In the first place, you know"—and there I polled up. No, dash it, I wasn't gofag to say a Jolly word about poor Jack—no, sir! But tfcen, about the other one—well, she was Just a treacherous* snake in the what's-itsname, and she ought to be? exposed. By Jove, she should be! "It's the frump, you know," 1 said indignantly. "The—the what?" Her pretty teeth flashed' like the keyboards of a tiny organ—you could even hear a1 little gurgly, musical quiver somewteere behind. AMPS* then I remembered that, of coura*, she wouldn't know whom I meant. "Oh, your gaest, you know—your friend from school," I went era, trying to tread cautiously and yet feeling myself growing red.

And no one could look into that sweet, ingenuous face as 1 proceeded, and doubt that the slanders were new to her. Never a Jolly one touched her—only you could see their absurdity amused her. Several times I had to pause as Bhe bent under a gale of laughter. Only once was she brought up, shocked. "Oh!" she uttered faintly, as I came to the intimation about her being hailfellow- well-met with the footmen and her drinking and carousing with them and other men-servants until three in | the morning. I realized that It wasn't the matter of tbe drinking that feazed her and drew from her little gasps as I came to this—knew that didn't bother her, don't you know, for I knew she did drink—could drink, I mean to say; for I had not forgotten the two full whisky glasses ee highproof Scotch she had tossed off that night la my rooms.

Lady Henry Somerset, whose labors in behalf of the children of the London slums are constant and earnest, tells this affecting story of the way in which her Interest In these little ones was aroused. I was moved in that direction by the rare patience and imagination of one little boy. His example convinced me that patience was one of the qualities I needed most, and in seeking It I grew into that work. I was In a bospitat on visiting day, while the doctors were changing a plaster cast which held tfce crippled boy'B limb. The operation was exceedingly painful, 1 was told. To my surprise, the little sufferer neither stirred nor winced, but made a curious buzzing Bound with his mouth. After the doctors left I said to him: "How could you possibly stand it?" "That's nothing," he answered. "Why, I just made believe that a bee was stingln' me.

The use of the portable colony ? pens when It Is desired to separate house has rapidly come into favor for termers and commercial poultry plants, not only as a building for little chicks but through its other various uses. Such a house need oot be expensive, but should be solid to allow for hauling and moving from place to place, many times over rough ground and subject to severe handling In turning and placing. The portable colony house should,, not be so large but that it can be moved with one good team, and can he drawn through the ordinary farm gates to meadows or orchard where they are to be located. There are many different uses fog the colony house, some of which may be divided up for the different seasons. In the early spring they may be used as brooding houses, being eouipped with hovers or having in them indoor brooders which allow the chicks the heat of the brooder and the run of the remaining space, being entirely under cover from the severe weather, and allowing the poultryman to raise early chicks; or the house may be divided in two .or more compartments and hens may be given chicks, which gives them the same advantages of being under cover during the cold or stormy weather and still have room for exercise. By cutting openings for each compartment small parks may be made which will keep the birds separate to insure best advantages in growing the young stock, but will allow the birds the run of the outdoor quarters during the pleasant days. If the birds are of one breed there may not be the desire to keep them separate for long, and they may be allowed the run of any desired area as they have a keen sense of location and readily learn to return to their own quarters. As the season advances the chicks, can do without hover or hen. These may be removed and low^-percheB placed in the houses ten-""'or twelve 76- -—H End View of Portable Colony House. Inches from the floor so that the chicks may learn to roost. As the natural tendency seems to be to seek high places for night this is very easily learned by most birds or fowls, and with the exception of one or two of the heavier breeds as the Brahmas or Cochins, birds will not need to be taught to accommodate themselves to the new' conditions. The growing chicks will need some attention to Insure best results during the time they are on the range. They should always be supplied with fresh, clean water and should have "• grain' and mash food to bring them into good fitrong maturity for fall business. As there Will always be surplus cockerels in the flock, these may be separated just before the houses are hauled- to the range, which will leave the pullets and a few cock* _.erels to care for. The surplus may be "marketed at the age of eight to \welve weeks, when, as a rule; prices are good and the birds hare reached. , ft deslrftDle «Jse. / ~ For the feeding of maeh to the birds on range hoppers • may he devised which will hold food enough for a week or ten days without refilling. < By this system not much time will be required of an attendant to. scatter grain and provide fresh, water for the birds each day. If there happens to ^he, running water near the buildings T 'this will supply the need", arid in an exceptionally busy season the birds can, if necessary, have grain supply i in hopper or depend on the mash ration for extra food other than that which they pick about the meadow or. fields. If later in the season oats or wheat have been_ cut,'«id the field Is not to be used immediately, houses may be drawn to a location where the birds can pick up the'scattered grain, 1 which saves a great deal, of feeding and prevents lots which otherwise might occur. If the flocks are large : enough so that laying house* are provided when the birds are returned to these bouses in the fall the colony coop* may be abandoned entirely .until next season, or fney miy "be uied for storage rooms, hospital coops, or for the mating up of small breeding these from the regular flocks, There are many different styles of these houses and the^ndivldual may have choice In style of construction. A pattern ot portable house which is giving very good satisfaction at the Michigan Agricultural college is one which i s made at a total cost of about $25, including labor and paint, and which will accommodate from 100 to 150 of the little chicks at the start, 100 growing chicks on range, and flocks of ten or fifteen birds in laying quarters. The house is 7½ feet wide and may be made eight feet, if desired, by twelve feet long. It is built on runners four inches square, it being desirable to make these runners of some material which will be lasting and preferably will wear hard and smooth by the hauling. These runners extend lengthwise of the building and for convenience of hauling may be set in eight or ten inches from the edge of the building, although thiB feature is very objectionable from the .fact,that little chicks invariably get under' the houses, causing $> great deal of trouble and making it necessary to add extra blocking for the prevention of this. If the runners are placed to the edges of the house blocking need only be done at the ends, as the runners will block front and back. Pieces of 2x4-inch material are placed on edge for Joists, four feet apart, and the floor is then laid before the framework Is constructed. The studding is then toe-nailed to the-' floor, being, six feet long In fropfc^and four feet in back, and plaeeiT three feet apart; 2x4-lnch pieeelfare used as plates. - ^ The door ln-the front may be 2 feet 6 inchea^wfde by 6 feet, and on each sld>-OT the door a nine light 8x10- ch glass window, hung at the top to swing out, may be BO arranged as to allow its removal in summer, and the openlpg may be covered with wire netting or baTs to close the house. • In the arrangement of nests and feed boxes it is advisable to make these with Rlanting tops, which prevents the birds from roosting or resting on them, keeping them in much cleaner condition. The accompanying drawings will explain the con3truction of these houses, which may be modified if de» sired, to suit the tastes of the individual.

H. h. $ajqejbsu*i perintendent of the Rhode island itat? sanUorium, the earnings, of lUe exr patients of that institution, faring 'Hw year 1U11 would amount to ever J266,< 000. This is a sum three'times aa large a s that spent each yeat-forrn>ain"- tenaace of the Institution, including four per.cent, interest and depreciation charges. The actual earnings In 191^.of 170 ex-patients were obtained by Dr. Barnes. These ranged from 12 to $3} per week, the total earnings for the year amounting to $102,752. On this basis, Dr. Barnes computes the figures above given. He Bays, however: "While Institutions for the cure of tuberculosis are good investments, there is good reason for thinking that institutions for the isolation of faradvanced cases would be still better investments." Out of a total of 46,450 hospital days' treatment given, 39,147, or 84 per pent., were free, the treatment costing the state on an average $200 per patient. Out of 188 free cases investigated, 56 had no families and no income on admission to the sanitarium. Out of 132 patients having homes, the number in the family averaged 5.2, and the average family earnings were 5.46. In 59 cases the families had no tncome, and In only five cases were there any savings, none of which amounted to as much as $100. NOT ALWAYS SO. ctausjs Gladys—So you've broken with him.

The train had Just spun through a w^de, arid waste, leaving behind etoetfs of alkali dust The five men were grouped together, pretty well talked out oa general •objects, and each ready for a little excitement, when one of them pointed eat of the window, "See those footbine over there?

Then It was that a little insigniflcaat chap who had joined them fifty miles back.^y hla card a representative of a small beef concern, ruffled the nerves of the five travel weary mjm In a way he had not before. The little drummer, Blake, nodded his bald head, and Btarted In. to relate some of his exploits and went on: *Tou bet I wouldn't lay down for no man that walks here In the west or anywhere. Most of you fellows are from the east, I take It, and go through to the coast; but I do business round these parts; and Fve mixed with bad man In bad plaoes, and I've never laid down, but I've made some of them do it" He Ut a cigar with a self-satisfied air. The others said little, though one or two winked slyly, but all were of the same mind evidently; for when the conversation had ended, thoroughly killed by Blake, they drifted together in another part of the coach, after Blake had gone back into one of the rear,eoaches. "Say, but that little pup gave me one gigantic pain. If he saw a bad man, he'd'crawl down his shirt to get out of sight He don't know a gun from a hole in the ground," one of them exclaimed heatedly. The others concurred. ** "This is a deadly tiresome rid*. Cant we get up a little • excitement, and make him the goat?" another asked, eager for some excitement. They sat in thought for a few moments, then a young member o/ the group-spoke up. "I've got It! We ought to make a regular Jack of him to pay him for that hot air, and take some of the swelling out of him. What do you say to this? One of you go back and fix up klnda rough, know, some old duds, get a gun, and while the train's going slow up the ridge, come in and hold the bunch -up!" Brownell, an engineer; was to be the robber, because he was caxying a rough suit of clotheB for mountain work. The train stopped at, a watering station, then began the long hard pull over the Ridge. In the smoker all were reading earnestly except Blakp who was looking out the window. Suddenly a door opened and slammed, and a masked figure stood before, them. "Hands zup!" rang o,ut, sharply intonated. Every pair of hands went meekly up; Blake's face was a picture of surprise. The masked figure came along to each one, and obedientjy they yielded i | t o p ^ t up their worldly goods. As the r o b - l ^ ^ * ;ber passed in front of Blake, he, too, gave up his cash. "Aw, come on there Fat," ©ne ot the men sang out; "he'i a bad un— give It to him!" A roar of laughter went up. Brownell slipped off hts mask, exposling a grin that went from ear to ear. "Shut down on the hot air, Beef," he said; "and dont come butting in on the conversation of gentlemen unless you're asked." Blake was staring out of the window; he turned, and in a flash he stood In the aisle, gimlet-eyed and grim, holding in his hand a black big Colt—not the toy in his case. "Quick! hand over that m<m," his words Bizsled. *1 want that moo—«fs my Joke, now! lor—* Brownell started at him with an <aagry oath.

SUICIDE BUREAU A SUCCESS More Than 4,000 Persons Saved From Self-Destruction in London 8lnce It Started. Many Interesting pages from the great book of life are to be found In the report of the operations of the Salvation Army's anti-suicide bureau. Since it was started 4,754 persons have called to lay their embarrassments before Colonel Emerson, and have asked him to "show cause"—as the lawyers say—why they should not: put an end to their lives. The largest number put down the cause of their trouble to financial reasons; after this come drink or drugs, and melancholia. The applicants come from almost every class except the workers. There are clergymen, missionaries, military officers, doctors, solicitors, schoolmasters, clerks and company promoters. They have all been dealt with according to their needs, and such help has been given them as their cases seemed to demand. Legal and medical advice has been afforded?; creditors have been reasoned with, reconciliations have been brought about with relatives. And the work, according to General Booth, has been successful beyond highest expectation.— London Chronicle.

Poisonous snakes, driven to higher land by the high water lm Lake Pontchartraln, have been playing J ° j j havoc with fishermen, two of whom were bitten so severely the other day that they had to be sent to the Charity hospital.

"Nature never rhymes her children, •or makes two men alike." So says Emerson, and the mothers of young families might do no worse than take this saying as a nursery motto. It is curious how few parents, comparatively realise the wisdom of this, and consequently how many homes are marred and rendered unproductive by being made "forcing" instead of "temperate" houses for the young lives they contain. The creeds, Ideas, thoughts and ca-t prices of the parents are forced on the child; he Is molded or "patterned" by the parent, according" to that parent's standards. He is taught to be like this person, or that, to take such a one for his.example and object of imitation.

Commenting on the cost of books, a Harvard man remarks that while modern reprints of standard literary works can be obtained at moderate prices, volumes of more strictly contemporaneous interest are now habitually held at an unduly high price. As a consequence college students and others of moderate means are deterred from owning, aside from prescribed textbooks, such volumes as they need most, says the Rochester Post-Express. It is explained that with the exception of a prospective "best seller," or school-textbook, the publisher argues that no more than, say, 3,000 copies could be sold, however, low the price, whereas there are at least 800 municipal and collegiate libraries. which "must have" a copy; and it will be better business. In his opinion, to sell 800 copies at $5 each than 3,000 copies at $1.25. Size of type, page, margins and thickness of binding do much toward giving the appearance of value, It is also observed that the publisher doeB not overlook in his calculations the wealthy amateur who Is "completing" his collection on a certain, topic. Wild game birds are the property of all citizens, under the Roman and continental law. On this principle of common ownership the states of this country have enacted their laws. But what of birds th^t alight but a short time within one state, then fly to another, and to yet other states? Are they not the property of the people of the Union? Because no state cares for them, the migratory birds of the United States are going the way of the great auk, the passenger pigeon and the parrokeet, says the New York Times. William 3. Saskell of the American Game Protection and Propagation association argued before the Benate committee that, though the title to the migratory btrds has never been adjudicated, common sense would suggest that it belongs to the federal government, and the authorities at Washington should give ample protection to this fast vanishing wild life.

' TORNADO HITS GRAND RAPIDS Various Matters of Note In and About the National Capital Briefly Told. Request for time to file an answer to the impeachment charges against Judge Robert W. Archbald, of the commerce court, was the only action taken l*y his counsel, A. S. Worthington, when the defendant appeared at the bar of the senate. Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania, spoke strongly in favor of granting the jurist ample time to prepare his answer. Seventy days was asked. Attorney Worthington did not enter on his defense proper and would give no Intimation UB to what line of argument he intends to pursue. The impeachment court named July 29 as the date on which Judge Archbald must make answer to the 13 counts of .his impeachment. The proceedings opened with an unusual degree of solemnity. The firat order was a call of the roll of those senators to whom the oath as Judges of Impeachment had not been administered. None of the senators not sworn waB present. Senator Bailey declared he favored a trial before the summer adjournment and would urge such action, but that he favored giving the attorney for Judge Archbald time to answer the charges. Mr. Clayton after a conference with the other house managers, suddenly withdrew his objection to the extension of time. The senate then ordered Judge Archbald to answer the charges against him Monday, July 2t>. The house managers were ordered to present their rebuttal answer Aug. 1 and the limit of time for all supplementary answers was fixed as Aug. 'A. At this time the issues in the case will be required to be complete. Catlin Used Too Much Money. By strict party vote the house election committee No. 2 Thursday voted to unseat Rep- Theron E. Catlin, of St, LOUIB, Republican, and to seat former Rep. Patrick Gill, Democrat. Mr. Catlin's campaign expanses were BO great that the committee held his election to have been corrupt. It also held that Gill would have been elected but for the use of money by Catlin's managers. The vote was t--ix to three. Catlin's majority in the 1!)'10 returns was 1,200. According to the record, Rep, Catlin's campaign expenditures aggregated more than $1::,000. It was contended by his counsel that much ot the money was used by his father without the candidate's knowledge. The Missouri law permits the expenditure of $(102. Rep. Catlin is the son of a millionaire tobacconist of St. Louis. He is serving his first term in congress, and is :U years old. One Man Dead From Shock; Forty Injured; $67,000 Loss. Grand Rapids was bit early Saturday morning by a tornado that indirectly caused the death of one man, injured 4U or more persons and did $50,000 worth of damage. The storm entered the city from The southwest about 4 o'clock. The first place struck was the city market and the Grand Rapids Central league baseball park near by. The market was crowded with farmers with their teams, as trading had just begun. A terrific lightning and thunder storm which had been approaching had given no warning of the danger N from the wind, but suddenly there were screams of, fright as a whirling balloon-like cloud approached, raping from the southwest and headed directly toward the market place. With a roar which was deafening the roof of the ball park grandstand was lifted high in the air. It seemed to hang suspended for a moment and then, shattering into a veritable rain of great planks and beams, was dashed upon the frightened men and wagons in the market place. Immediately there was a panic. Terror-stricken horses reared and dashed frantically to escape. WagonB were overturned. Men and women were thrown prone by the fury of the wind and run over and rendered unconscious by the dashing teams. Where a moment before the hundreds of loads of produce had been in orderly array awaiting the beginning of the morning's trading there was chaos. Police reserves were called out at once to care for the victims. Titanic Captain Lives? Capt. E. J. Smith, commander of the Titanic, was not drowned but has been seen safe and sound in Baltimore, it was persistently declared by Peter Pryal, a wealthy retired mariner, who was a shipmate of Captain Smith for more than 17 years Mr. Pryal says he met Capt. Smith on Thursday and accosted him, bin the captain brughea by him angrily, The next day, he declares, he saw him again and followed him around the city to a railroad station, where the cautain bought a ticket for Washington. Just as he was about to pass through the gates, Pryal declares, the man turned to him and greeted him by name. "I am on business; don't worry me, Pryal," he said. "Be good to yourself, old shipmate, till we meet again." DR. HAMILTON W. MABIE Girl Slayer Drowns Himself.

RooseveK'c Wiabes Seem to Have Been Fully Complied With and. "State Ticket" Eliminated. . For governor—Senator L. Whitney Watkins. For United States Senator—Theodore M. Josiin. For congressman-at-large—Nathan P. Hull. The final result of the convention held by Progressive Republicans at Jackson is that a complete ticket will be put in the field. A separate state organization is formed and a resolution was adopted .declaring in favor of new party state, county, congressional, legislative, city, township and ward tiCKets. Former Republican State Chairman Frank Knox had made himself the leader of the stateticket faction. , He fought hard against the third tickets locally. It was plain that the Knox faction were in a bad way before the convention convened and with the arrival of Sen. Dixon and his declaration for the gothe- iimit policy, Knox surrenderee. When the resolution introduced by Wr. H. Hill, of Detroit, declaring for the third state, county and local tickets came up for discussion, Knox took the platform and said: "Col. Roosevelt has seen fit to change his mind as to the course we should pursue. The first orders 1 took from anybody as a boy just out of college were from Col. Roosevelt, as a member of his rough rider regiment. I am still taking my orders from Col. Roosevelt. I will support and work for a third party ticket all down the line." The convention chose presidential electors, national delegates and alternates and state central committee as follows: Presidential Electors.

The platform adopted contains these planks: We favor a presidential primary law giving to the people the right to vote directly for their choice of president, with a clear provision that the delegates selected shall choose a na* tional committeeman whose term of office shall begin immediately after the holding of said primary election and prior to the making of the temporary roll of membership in the national convention. We favor the Initiative, the referendum and the recall. We favor the recall of all officials when corrupt or incompetent.

The Middle-Aged^ Woman. Of the many way* In which the middle- aged woman may vary the effect of her afternoon gowns none is simpler than the use of a collar and cuffa of white voile edged with scalloping: and embroidery In a floral design. Another change may be the. frock set ot white chiffon with border of black mallnes, and still another Is the one of black net hemstitched with, silver thread. Some of these collars are so long in front that they terminate only at the waist line, where they cross in surplice effect and are tucked away under the girdle. An excellent model of this sort is of light blue lawn embroidered with black dots, and a second is of white agaric trimmed with, tiny folds of broadcloth, alternating with eponge. Too Eager. Fred Poyner, a- Chicago dentist, was recently at a banquet given by the Dental association. He said; "On one side is the right of things and on the other is wrong; sometimes the difference between the two is slight. As the following story shows: A gypsy upon release from jail met a friend. 'What were you lo for?' asked the friend. " 'I found a horse,' the gypsy replied. '*.: " 'Found a horse? Nonsense! They would never put you in jail for finding a horse.' " 'Well, but you see I found him before the owner lost him.' " Lieut. Preusser, a German military aviator, was killed in Leipsig as he was making a landing after a flight.

A western Kentucky negro was ia jail awaiting trial for stealing a calf. His wife called to see him. On her Avay out the jailer, whose name was Grady, halted her, "Mandy," he inquired, "have youj got' a lawyer for Jim?" "No, sab," said his wife. "Ef Jim was guilty I'd git him a lawyer right away; but he tells me he ain't guilty, and so, of co'se, I ain't aimln' to hire none." "Mr. Grady." came a voice from the cells above, "you tell dat nigger woman down thar to git a lawyer—and git a dam' good one. too!"—Saturday Evening Post. Excellent Plan. "I see," said Mrs. De Jones, while Mrs. Van Tyle was calling, "that you have a Chinese chauffeur. Do you, find him satisfactory?" "He's perfectly fine," said Mrs. Van* Tyle.

A W I N N I N G START > A Perfectly Digested Breakfast Wskee Nerve Force for the Day. Everything goes wrong if the. breakfast lies in your stomach like a mud pie.

Major Henry B. Alvord, In the Iowa Homestead, says: "If the prime object la to produce the greatest quantity of milk of the best quality and at "the greatest profit from any given uluHber of caws within a year, the evidence Is overwhelming that the cows should be managed so as to calve in the autumn months. For like reasons September Is t&fi-best month A Well-Bred Calf. In most parts of the country for a heifer to drop her first calf in order to best develop as a cow, and this almost regardless of the age of the animal at first calving. Calves born in the fall are easier reared and make •better cows than those born in the Spring or summer. It seems needless to rehearse the stock arguments pn this subject, based upon the long experience of successful dairymen, but a brief recapitulation may be useful. The cow or heifer calving in the fall needs the most healthy and nutritious pasture first Tollowlng the strain and while coming into full flow. Just at the time when some falling off is likely to occur, the animal is brought to the stable and receives good care. The winter feeding and the returns from it may be depended upon to exceed the mid-summer results for a like period. At the stage of milking and of gestation, when another dropping off in the milk yield may be looked for, the fresh pasturage induces a fresh flow, lengthens the milking season and increases the product. December and January are good months in which to control and supervise the service of the bull," CLEAN SKIN OF MUCH VALUE SUNLIGHT FOR MILK UTENSILS One of the Best Known Disinfectants —Nothing Better for Cans After Being Washed. Sunlight is one of the best of disinfectants and it is free to everybody.

The drawing shows a handy aun rack on which cans, pails and strainers may be conveniently hung. It !a just as useful for kitchen utensils.

Thus she most have a large middle and strong constitution to insure best results. She must also nave a large udder, large milk wells, large crooked Bilk veins and good sited teats. Her head shouW be lean and angular in appearance, with the) eyes standing out prominently, The seek should be rather long and clean In appearance, t o * shoulder* pointed1 and the backbone rather prominent The skin should be loose and soft to the touch. A Sell Nonpaytnfl Cows, Very few men will hesitate in dis* posing of a nonpaying cow if be can Hte convinced that she is in that class, ft** is ignorance alone that keeps so many poor milkers as work milking poor cows. '{ Least Waste of Cream. If. the milk Is separated immediately after ft'is drawn and before the anU mat warmth has time to escape there V i l U s i the least possible waste of If Pores Are Kept Open Cow la More Apt to Be Healthy—Use Comb and Brush Every Day. Nature has given all living crea* tures a wonderful covering for the body. The skin is a most perfect and yet an exceedingly simple system of carrying off impurity and at the same time of providing the body with needed nourishment from the air, through the mysterious channels of absorption. Every cow's body is completely covered with thlB network of cells. If these are kept clean and open, so that they may do their work, the cow will be more apt to be healthy than if they become closed. This has been most strikingly proven by covering the bodies of animals with a sort of varnish which will not admit air, and the poor creatures soon die. their heart and lungs being fairly engorged with blood, just as would be the case if 4hey were smothered. Do we need anything more to prove that it stands us in hand to keep the bodies of our cattle clean by the use of a brush and comb not now and then, but every day, regularly? If this be not done, the pores of the Bkin get closed with the dust which is always present in our stables, especially at this time of the year, when we are feeding hay and other food that is apt to fill the air with flying particles. At once the cow begins to suffer. She cannot digest her food as she" would otherwise, and she requires more food and richer food to maintain life in a good degree. POINTS IN CARING FOR M'LK Liquid Placed in a Clean BottU Is Practically Free From Outage Contamination. The nine rules given below will prove of considerable value to any dairyman: 1. Bottle milk Is practically free from outside contamination and 13 the preferable form for purchasing it. 2. Can milk is liable to contamina. tion from dust, from heat, and .'rom strong-smelling substances in the refrigerator. 3. The top and outside of the bottle should be rinsed off with warm water 8imple Method of Cooling. before being opened, as tho milkman usually carries the bottles by the top or neck, and more or less dirt and bacteria are certain to be transferred to the outside of the bottles. 4. Place the milk at once in a refrigerator, in cold water or in a cellar. Keep the covers on the bottles as it prevents material falling in, and also prevents absorption of odors. 5. Wash and scald the bottle as soon as empty. 6. Clean vessels only should be used for holding milk sold by measure. These should have tight-fitting covers. 7. Never mix fresh and stale milk, as all becomes tainted or sour in a short time. 8. Milk slightly sour can be sweetened by the addition of a small amount of lime water. Pasteurisation will add to its keeping quality. This latter is not good policy, but Is a remedy for a common evil. 9. Do not buy milk because it is cheap, for usually it is the dearest in the end. DAmYNOKV A s old stagnant pond Is no place for a cow to slack her thirst Cows differ somewhat In the amount of roughage, they will take. Every dairy fanner should organize a cow-testing association of bis own. A "boarder" in the dairy nerd Is a sign of an owner who ie satisfied with life as it is. The mangel is excellent for stock feed, being greatly relished by milk cow* in winter. When butter refuses to "gather" the cream may be too sour or the temperature too low. Provided yoru cow ts a good one. the more she is fed along; right lines the more she will give. Stringy milk is brought on by g fermentation in the udder caused by a certain form of bacteria. Milk left in the pall of the skimmilk calf means sour milk In a very short time these hot days. To be sweet and clean it Is desirable that the cow stable be whitewashed at least twice a year. The .best cow Is the one that can consume the largest amount of roughage and use it to the best advantage. The number of acres required to feed a' herd of twenty cows in fun milk will depend largely upon the condition of the ground and the sea* MICHIGAN HAPPENINGS SOME CLEANING HINTS M E T H O D * T H A T W I L L BOTH RENOVATE AND PRESERVE. Marshall.—Tha Democrats held a conference here and decided to support the following for county offices: Probate Judge, W. P. Porter, Marshall; sheriff, Frank B. Garrlck, Pennfleld; clerk, W. A. Cady, Battle Creek; register of deeds, Charles Standiford, Athens; treasurer, Walter Watson, Albion; drain commissioner, Ed Ansterburg, Albion township; coroners, M. S.

Lansing.—A pretty romance culminated , when William £. Morgan and Miss Helen E. Baker were married. The acquaintance of the couple began two years ago, when he rescued her from Pine lake into which she had been precipitated by a capsizing canoe. The young man plunged into the water and swam several hundred feet to where Miss Baker was in a desperate battle with the waves. Her esuort was clinging to the canoe and did not offer her any assistance. Evart.—Two men from southern Michigan are dragging the lakes of Osceola with nets for the purpose of securing turtles. The supply of turtles suitable for food in the lakes of the southern part of the state ha£ been nearly exhausted. These men shTp this meat in great quantities and unless some step is taken in the near future to protect the turtle it will soon be exterminated hereabouts. Jackson.—John Trowbridge, a convict who escaped from the prison farm, returned to the prison voluntarily. He told Warden Simpson that he slept out of doors and that he awakened to a realization of his foolishness and desired to be sent back to the farm. Trowbridge came from Ionia January 29, last, on a two to ten years* sentence for assault with Intent to do great bodily harm less than the crime of murder. Lansing.—The trial of the molders charged with violating the injunction of Judge Collingwood relative to picketing, was completed Just before court adjourned. The case was tried without a Juryi and the decision was rendered by the Judge. He exonerated all but Harry Langley. Langley was the chairman of the committee appointed by the strikers to picket the factory In question. Jackson.—Rev. E. D, Rundell. aged seventy, pastor of the Ganson Street Baptist church, died at tho White Cross sanitarium following an operation. Rev.

TQ Clean Satin.—Take equal propor* tlons of spirits of wine and warm water, sponge the satin on the right side with this, working down the material and not across it. While still damp, Iron on the wrong side. Another plan is to clean the satin with the following mixture: Four ounces pf honey, the same quantity of melted soap mixed with one egg and one wineglass of gin, using a stiff brush. When the satin appears clean, rinse in cold water; press between clean clothB to dry or hang up to drain. Iron -while still damp, and thoroughly dry before folding. Care of Glass.—There is nothing that repays one more for careful washing and drying than glass. First one must have a bowl of warm water softened with dissolved soap, which makes a very good lather. Too hot water should not be used, as it might crack the glass. Have a bowl of clean water to rinse the glass In after washing it and if a very fine polish be desired on it have a third bowl of cold water with a little ammonia in it. Wash each article separately, rinse it well, and dry with a soft glass cloth, which should be made of linen or little, fluffy particles" will itick to the glass and spoil the appearance. When It is washed and dried polish with a leather kept for the glass, or with a silk handkerchief or with some aoft tissue paper. How to Clean Silver.—Have an aluminum pan containing about two gallons of cold water. In this dissolve a piece of washing soda about the size of an egg, and heat the solution to boiling point. Drop into this the silver to be cleaned, taking care to keep the whole at boiling point. Let the silver soak for three or four minutes. Lift out with a wire spoon or longhandled fork, wash in hot soap suds and wipe quickly with a perfectly dry towel. The pieces so cleaned will be as highly polished as when new. This process will neither injure plated nor solid ware. When all the silver is finished, if there are any pieces that do not look white and clear, rub them with a little dry whiting and a dry duster; then polish off with a soft, dry cloth. To Wash Feather Boa.—Prepare a soap lather and one or two' lukewarm rinsing waters. Place the boa in the soap lather and wash it by squeezing between the hands till quite clean. Rinse It well tq take out all the dirty water and soap. When this is done, squeeze the water out of the feather and roll in a cloth, which will absorb the moisture. Take hold of the boa by the ends and twist each in the opposite direction, thus giving the natural twist to the boa. Fasten a piece of tape to each and tie these to a line to prevent the twist from becoming undone. Shake the boa to separate the fronds, and leave it until quite dry, occasionally shaking it to keep the fronds apart. The drying process should be done In a warm place, so that It will dry quickly, and the fronds thus become fluffy, when it is ready for curling. FOOL QUESTION ANSWERED. -rvr **•-...»•, Percy—If I were rich, my darling, would you love me more than you do? Virginia—I might not love you any more, Percy, but I know I would look forward to our wedding day with a degree of impatience that never seems to possess me at present. "What's going on here?" demanded a man as he came upon two little boys battling in a vacant lot on the south side. The lad who was on top was rubbing weeds over the face of the under one. "Stop it," said the man, grabbing the victor by the neck and pulling him away. '"What in the world are you trying to do to his face with those weeds?" "Do? Why, he swore in front of some girls, and I rubbed some smartweed in his eyes to become a great man like Abraham Lincoln,"—Pittsburg Sun. Cream Mash. Chop veal or beef as fine as for hash, fry for a few minutes in salt pork drippings. Take from the fire; in the same frying pan make a rich, well-seasoned cream gravy If cream is possible; if not, use milk, thickening with cornstarch and adding a generous lump of butter. Pour half of the gravy into a pan over the fire, thin it with hot water, dip in slices of well-browned toast, then lay the moistened toast in a flat dish and set in a warm place. Into the thick cream gravy put the minced meat; cook It five minutes and spread it on the toast. Delicious. Pumpkin Chips. Eight pounds pumpkin cut in thin and rather small pieces, four lemons sliced very thin, five cents' worth of ginger root, Ave pounds granulated sugar. Put this all together and let stand all night Next dsy boll It four hours, then take from stove, let stand until cold, put in jelly glasses and cover with parafflne. This Is especially good at breakfast, as it makes an Inexpensive and very palatable marmalade.— Home Department, National Magazine. Add Lemon Juice. When using beef or mutton dripping instead of butter for pastry try beating It to a cream with a squeeze of lemon juice. This will take away the taste that some people object to in dripping made pastry snd makes it beautifully light and crisp. Rubber Cake. One cup sugar, one and a half cups flour; one cup sour milk; one-half teaspoonful sods; two teesnoonfuls cinnamon, one teaapoonful cloves, yolks of two eggs; beat all together and bake in a quick oven.

A girl may nor marry the best man at her own wedding, but she should try to make the best of the man she marries. Only a married man can fully appreciate heaven if there are no wash days or house cleaning seasons there. Many a girl strives to make a name for herself rather than attempt to make a loaf of bread.

The little girl was writing a letter to her brother at Yale one day, and in the midst of the epistle she looked up and said: " 'Auntie, how do you Bpell devil?* '"Devil!" cried her aunt, with a shocked smile. 'Why, child, don't you know you mustn't use such a word as devil?' "'But, auntie/ protested the little girl, "I want to tell brother about your Christian and devil meetings?'"

There are few things thas th© Salvation Army does not require at some time In its existence. And because it never hesitates to ask tor what it wants it usually gets It, says the New York Times. The other night a small hand of Army enthusiasts neefed umbrellas. Rain pelted down with stinging force, yet they refused to break ranks. A hoy with umbrellas to rent perceived their drenched condition and rushed up shouting: "Here are your umbrellas. Only 6 cents apiece till the meeting breaks up." None of the Salvationists seemed disposed to gain protection at that price, so their resourceful leader made an appeal In their behalf. Addressing the few bystanders he said: "If there are any persons in the audience who had contemplated contributing a little money to the cause,,will you kindly give It new that we majr rent these umbrellas which our young friend has offered us?" "Well, I'll swear," was the somewhat inappropriate comment of one man on the sidewalk, but he and his pinions contributed a quarter with whloh to rent umbrellas for the nv* women Salvationists.

One of the Incidents of the early days In Great Bend that caused a great deal of merriment among the white residents was the tkne the Indians bought all the parasols and umbrellas that were for sale in the town. This happened, along In the '70s and was en a rainr daev The'Injuns were on their way south and oame through the town of Great Bend. They saw a number of men and women on the streets with umbrellas and, being plentiful*; supplied with money and a desire to ow&.ene of the handy contrivances, they got busy. The funny part of it was that they made no distinction between toy parasols, silk ones and fche serviceable linen ones. It was not long until the entire vlsible^ supply of all the stores had been purchased. Then the fun began. Some of theJoy parasols were.made of cloth that was highly.colored and as soon as the water hit them the coloring matter began to mix with the water and drip down upon the Indians' clothes.

The next day, he declared under oath, he caught a fish in that self same pool—a "gold fish," of course—and he found within the finny armor of that Vermont bass bis watch, the $20 gold piece, and 30 cents accrued interest.—Joe Mitchell Chappie In Joe Chappie's News Letter.

The theory is that repeated discharges of dynamite along a firing line two miles in length will produce rain. It is based upon the historical fact that rain invariably follows a battle in which the cannonading has been heavy.

When the fossil remains of other beasts than those we know were first studied at the beginning of the last century, there were many aearchinga of heart among the pious of that day, and Instead of looking upon them as the most wonderful «ntrles In nature's ledger, some good people regarded them as the mallclous Inventions of the devil, intend- •ed to lead a a tray the over-curious. In bis book. "The Ox and Its Kindred" (Methuen), Mr. Lydekker tells us the story of our domestic cattle as It Is revealed by the examination of the various species, living wild afcd in captivity, and by the fossil remains of their progenitors. Although there are a very large number of species belonging to the suborder Artlodactyla (the Greek word -artios, meaning equal, and dactulos, toe), which comprises the ox and the other remunlnants (1. e., airimals that have the power of regurgitating *nd remastlcating their food), their history Is not so well displayed by their fossil remains as that of the Perlssodactyla, or odd-toed, hoofed animals, which have only the horse and some half-dozen other representatives. Both families consist, of course, of hoofed animals; but the ox group •differs widely from the horse and Its relations through the special development of the stomach required tby ruminants, instead of the simple •and almost Imperceptible divisions into cardiac and pylovic portions common to mad and most other animals., The stomach of the ox has Ave chambers, two of which constitute the rumen, or paunch; In this the grass is first stored after it is cut by the Incisors acting against the pad which takes their place In m* mm* • '»*• . : V ** •jrx- •> \ v •* JttTHT&f/Wbe quaintness ithe upper Jaw. When the animal has taken in as :mnch food as it require* it seeks a place of safety^ if wild, or0 settles down in the field if domesticated, and proceeds to regurgitate, that is to say, bring back the food it has taken in, and chew it up in the powerful mill formed by its cheek or molar teeth. When the food has been re-swallowed it is taken Into the reticulum, or honey- • comb chamber, of^he stomach, where it is acted upon by the digestive Juices, and ts then passed on through the psalterlnm, or manyplies. the abomasum and pyloric opening into the small intestine. When a ruminant Is engaged In chewing the feud, after a mouthful of food has been masticated and .swallowed, the animal, as may be seen If a 'herd of recumbent cows are watched shortly after thfrir meal, will remain perfectly still for a tfew seconds, after which a kind of convulsive movement will be observed In the throat; followed by the sudden upward, movement of a ~nolus"~ through the. gullot into the mouth to; be masticated. .>*""' The *oat striking feature in the s%njctafe'~ot^ members of the ox family Is the deyelopment of the foot. Both the bone, an* the ox tribe have developed towards the one end of great speed over firm ground, and both have become specialised almost as jcompletely as possible; but they have adapted thesaeelve*' i n 4Hfe»est wave. In the case of the horse the .middle toe has been developed and- the others suppr#assjd.'rThe o* and ite tribe, on the other band, ham developed the two central toes, hence thCnanie of their sub-order, Artlodactyla. This specialization has entailed an enormous extension' of the two boneV corresponding to the middle bones of the hand (metacarpals) and of the foot (metatarsals); these have also become anore or less completely fused in the different members of the family, consequently the joint cor* irespondlng to the human wrist has become the' lose* in oxen. Our Illustrations showing the fsfpee of the fore foot of various members of theee two suborders, Artlodactyla and Perlssodactyla (or odd-toed) will make this point clearer thari/jp^hrd&^itstom,^ hoo*e«to|jtaAte> « ^ & & U r wsji,©*>«*:tfr of 4 h e t ^ i r e W n d V > . | } % » i i e r nafls i«cmaa aod^tfeidesvs^ f*tJ#ot% aod«ot o*£forfe*t **- &>*&$&& *t>™B*«* from- the J H M « vtew erf cfrffifyjlrfe WoTvea who'walh In plantidse otlb*m<>±lUK*^ s t u ^ in eeonecttnfsr, history* Is vtffi wayA dtfertmt ' tajalconSttotfs to,be JUssirattoss willahow B^SfToiaSt^A^ [lfvsl^.ewn* grater to the artist. Even m o r e strange are the Kathlawar buffaloes of n o r t h western India, with their pathetic expression caused by t h e i r curling ram-like horns; an ungainly, illmade beast but powerful. I t stands fully five feet high at the shoulder. At the other end of the scale comes the anoa, or pigmy buffalo, of the island of Celebes; it is the smallest of all the wild cattle, and Is about the same size as the dwarf giani domesticated humped cattle of India. It stands only three feet three inches at the shoulder, though it is rather higher at the loins. "Despite its slender build, as compared with larger cattle, its small, neat ears and upwardly-directed horns, which incline upwards and outwards in the plane of the face, without any distinct curvature, the anoa is essentially a buffalo whose affinities are with the Indian species," says Mr. Lydekker. Although the remains'of the bovidae are slight, comparatively speaking, we have evidence that they formed the quarry of the men of the Stone Age, because at Cambridge the skeleton of an aurochs, or wild ox, is preserved which was killed by a stone weapon, and many other skeletons have been found which show that the animal was slain in the chase. There is one prehistoric drawing of an extinct buffalo which was found in North Africa; but as a rule the artists of the prehistoric ages showed very little enthusiasm for the ox as a subject to sketch, in spite of their obviously keen Interest in him as an addition to the larder; their pictures are chiefly concerned with horses, men and dogs. Somewhat after the fashion of their modern brethren, eave, perhaps, Mr. Arnesby Brown and some few others who achieve their greatest triumphs with these subjects. Though Mr. Arnesby Brown, be it noted, seems to prefer the latter portions of his models for portraiture. Prom the point of view of the geologist the ox tribe are a modern group, and only date back to the early part of the Pliocene, or upper division of _ the Tertiary epoch. They are related to the antelopes, and may own cousinship with the gnus of Africa; but their direct ancestors are still unknown. The earliest representatives of the group are very similar to buffaloes, which constitute, in some respects, the most primitive of the living forms, and are those whose horns come nearest in shape to those of gnus. The group Is of old-world origin, and the bisons were the only section which reached America. They traveled by way of Behrlng Strait, and at one time reached as far south as Texas and California, but never penetrated into South America. Seven species of American bison have been identified. The extinct wild cattle of Europe and Western Asia are called aurochs (Bos taurns prlmigenius); they were represented in Algeria and Tunis by a local race (B. t. mauritanicus). A nearly-allied species Is the great extinct ox (B. namadicus) of the superficial, or Pleistocene, gravels of the valley of the Narbada in Central India. In Northern India, in the well-known Tertiary deposits of the Slwallks Hills and other low ranges at the foot of the Himalaya, remains of several kinds of cattle are met with, and as these Slwallk strata are at least early Pliocene, their fossil cattle fire the oldest known members of the group. The largest and most remarkable of these Slwallk forms of typical oxen is the one for which Mr. Lydekker proposed the name B. acutifrons. From the aurochs and its relatives this Slwallk ox is distinguished by the sharp longitudinal ridge down the middle o f the forehead. More or less perfect skulls of a very remarkable type of ox have been obtained from the alluvial upper Pliocene, deposits of the Val d'Arno In Tuscany, and corresponding formations in Southern Prance. This extinct Etruscan ox (B. elatus or B. etruBcus) represents a distinct subgenus known as Leptobos, and is characterized by the absence of horns in the cows, and by those of the bulls arising on each side of the Bkull from a point nearly midway between the occiput and the socket of the eye; the skull itself is also remarkable for Its Shortness. Another Interesting progenitor of the ox is the great extinct bison (B, prlscus) of the caverns and gravels of England and the superficial formations of Europe. This animal differed from the living species in the enormous size of its horns. Cream BAKING POWDER iS ABSOLUTELY HEALTHFUL Its active principle solely grape acid and baking soda.

Her lovely eyes were dancing with mlscnief as they hung there below « Had C:aHhofet forgotten^ the dashad windows—and the two cats that mjghjt be looking out! > ' "f niuTB*uV«d sotrfe lofty apology, a d d i n g : "Oh, yesr-flulte so; certainly I I mean—eh, what?"

"The 'bobby/ you know, Just now" ^aba podded toward the porte-cochere —"I was positive he had come to drag you away to your loathsome dungeon. And when he rehired, I was—oh, so relieved !" And she clasped her hands, her eyes lifting upward. •'Oh, I say now—were you, though?" I grinned, delightedly and slipping to a rustle chair beside her, looked her affectionately jn the eye. For all her air of chaffing, I knew that under It was & current of anxiety for me—tile darling! I screwed my glass at her tenderer. "What would you have done?" I said softly; ,llf he had—ef^luggeAlne off, you know?** "Can you ask?" What a reproachful side-glance she shot me through the meshes of her silken what-you-call- 'ems! "Why, of course, I should have drawn my good excallbar and run him thr-r-rough and thr-r-r-ough!" By Jove, how she said it! And she Illustrated with the stemless rose— dash It, no; the roseless stem! She was superb—looked like the Jolly fencing girl; only a dashed sight more stunning, don't you know! And her excallbar, too! Didn't know what a Jolly excallbar was, but guessed it was some delightfully mysterious but deadly feminine thing—some kind of submerged hat-pln-sort-of-thlng, you know —that sort, dash it! Yet she would have drawn it—and her good one, too, she said! "Jove!" I said feelingly. "Would you, really?" And I almost took her hafrd—and again remembered the windows! So I just shot her a look. Her glorious eyes sparkled. "That is, I would if I had one," she said amlllng; "but I'm afraid poor Arthur lost the last and only one. Sad, Isnt It?" "Ohr I Just felt my jolly heart sink like whafs-ita-naine. Who the deuce was "poor Arthur?" This must be another —some other thundering chap who had teen engaged to her. And. what a rotten, careless beggar, too, to have lost It—that is, if he really had! Of course, he would say so, anyhow. And how the deuce did be get it, In the first place—did she> give It to him, or did he— By Jove, how I should have liked to punch Arthur's headl Always did hate a chap with that name?

So bis nights were like*that! By Jove, 1 was devilish glad then that they had been so few—that was some comfort, dash It! I wondered If the beggar was dead. But what difference did It make now, after all? She was mine now and she knew I knew It; that was why this Bweet, Ingenuous child was laying bare to me her past —the darling! Really, I ought not to let her go on. "Never mind them now," I urged soothingly. And heedless of the window's, I hitched a wee bit closer. 'That's all past and gone and you and I will yet see as good nights as they ever were." I spoke with assurance. "Don't you think so?" I added, softly. She sighed. "I don't know—I hope so!"—she lingered dubiously over It, looking away again, the while her hand put back the fleecy, golden what-you-calMt that was snuggling to her eyes. I looked at the goddesslike forearm, bared to above the elbow, where it slipped from sight under the roll of sleeve, and thought of that night In my apartment when she had made me feel of her biceps, don't you know. "You don't know?" I repeated with gentle reproach. "Oh, 1 say, you know! You know you know you know!" By Jove, that sounded rather rum, but I knew she knew I knew she knew—see? She looked at me sldewise, her slender forefinger pressing the halfparted lips slowly shaping in a curve. Then her little teeth flashed, jewellike— regular Jolly pearl setting in the frankest, sweetest smile!— and ..then her glorious arm and wrist arched suddenly toward me. "Yes'!" she said contritely, aad with the most delightful, kindest inflection and laugh—such a laugh!—a laugh gurgling melodious—oh, dash it, yes; I mean Just that!—like the flute notes In the overture to what'^hlsname— that sort! "That's the way I love to hear a man talk!" she said warmly. "1 think It takes an American to stand up for his own place, his own times—please!" And gently, but with a lovely smile, she withdrew her hand that 1 had folded close in mine. 1 let it go, for I saw her look toward the house, and, of course, I understood—jolly careless of me not to have remembered—but she would know from my nod and shrug that 1 comprehended. 1 sighed, and my deep breath brought her gaze back to me and her flashing smile as well. "And so," she said, lifting her little chin, "you think there are just as many knights now as there used to be?" I almost laughed at the child-like question—but I didn't! Dash it, no, l wouldn't have done so for the world. Just looked at her seriously and answered her in kind: "Perfectly sure of it, don't you know!" _ And, by'JoveTl was! Knew if there had been any change, some newspaper- reading chap at the club would have mentioned it—that was safe; especially one silly ass who was.always reading of some Jolly comet that was coming. He would know about the nights. "Yes—Oh, yes, there are Just as many!" I affirmed positively, and added quickly: "More, you know!* For suddenly I remembered' it was leapyear, and I knew there was some Jolly rhysae about leap-year gives us one day mote—so, of course, there'd be another night! "You don't know how glad I am to hear you say that," she said musingly. -There are Just as many knights, you mean, but the conditions have chanted—the man Is changed—Is that i t r I should say the man was changed? "Oh, dash it, yes I" ! blurted. By Jote, I hoped there wouldn't be another change. • "You mean"—with a little, ^>he* lenging, punled smile, she leaned forward, her elbow resting upon her knee like a sculptured, Grecian pillar; her flower-like curving fingers supporting her chin like a Corinthian what's-ltsname, you know, the sort of thing tae ancient what-yotfcsa-'ems always added to top o # thetr stunning marble cotumns^yciu. know!—welt, lOce that—"you mean we mar find Knights, not onty In the field, but m the shops, upon the streets—eripn fn the slums; or n the hospitals, in the church or upon the bench—thai is your id e a r ft wasn't my Idem at all—I should sat not!

But I answered tactfully: "I don't mean those places so much, don't you know—I think we can find lots jollier and better nights elsewhere." And I closed my free eye and beamed at her through my glass. "Don't have to go so far, you know; under one's own roof, or—er—some one* else's roof, for instance—why not here?" i Jerked my head toward the old stone pile behind us.

"Last Wednesday evening I discovered, to my amazement, that Croesus and I are in the same class." "Tell me about it," said the bookkeeper. "The Arm profits so great» ly by our Invaluable services that we are entitled to relax a little in busines hours." "It was the Ladles' Aid society," explained the little stenographer. "About a month ago the president requested each one of us to bring five dollars to be earned by our Individual efforts. The money was to be provided in one month from that day. It was for a special purpose and we all promised that we'd do as requested. "There aren't many other girls in that society. They're mostly married women. So they talked and talked and wondered how on earth they could earn five dollars apiece. They went on that way fer two hours after the meeting was over. You see, they weren't supposed to bring any money that was given them—so they' couldn't ask their husbands to help them. "Well, last Wednesday evening the month was up. Of course, I just took a five dollar bill that I'd saved from my last check, so I was perfectly safe. If#I hadn't earned it myself I wouldn't have been able to brlh-g It! "We got'there rather early—every one was anxious to see If every one else had brought five dollars. And oh, they looked so worn out and tired, and some of them even looked cross I "When the meeting began we all began to tell how the money was earned—and that's what gives me my wealthy sensation! "You know Mrs. Ward. Her husband owns nearly half the city, I believe, and she has all sorts of motor cars and wears orchids all winter! Well, she brought only $4.30! She was almost In tears about it and she offered to give the other 70 cents, if they'd let her, out of her husband's money. Everybody was anxious to hear why she'd failed to earn the full amount What do you Buppose she'd done? Pressed her husband's troosers! "She said she had started right in —for she could charge only ten cent* a. pair—and she knew there were only thirty days in,a month. Bo she hunted up all the trousers her husband owned and pressed them the first day. Then each day she pressed the pair he had worn the day before—and then she tried to^persuade him to change his trousers at noon sometimes so she could press two pairs a day, but he refused. She was counting up the days, and at the rate she was going she couldat possibly get the five dollars before the month was up! She made him pay her each day. Finally, near the end, in despair, she took all the pairs of trousers out of the closet again and, finding, she said, that they were a little wrinkled from hanging so long, she pressed them once more. It was that performance that ended her earning powers. Her husband said that a tailor was cheaper and did the work^better.. "Mrs. Cullen—you know, she gives presents worth hundreds of dollars to the church every lltt'le while. She fairly keeps it running at times. Well, she sold magazine subscriptions! She said that she found all her friends already were subscribers for all the magazines she had far sale. Finally she had to canvass the streets, and yet In order to make up the five dollars she was compelled to sell three subscriptions to herself, and then give away the magazines! We couldn't decide whether that was fair or not. "Mrs. Briggs painted place cards! She said she spent most of the. month in wondering what to do, and just a few days before last Wednesday 'she learned that a special friend of hers was giving a luncheon. So she told the friend that she'd paint place cards at 25 cents each! In Ignorance, her friend took her offer, and she brought the place cards to show. She had to laugh at It herself, for she'd never painted a thing In her life before 'and she thought those simple little things would be awfully easy! There was a little red hill—she had just three' color paints and didn't know what to mix for other colors— and on the red hill was a yellow house with blue trimmings. Those were the three cok>cs—and all the embetUshments were of the same colors. They were really unique. "Mrs. Bradway Is a dear little old woman who Just drives around and looks sweet and dafcity and goes to church, she made a contract with her ttavto mm*narwhals~lswn for fly* dollars! "Actually, irhsm it got to me to tel* how I earned my five dollars I really faH aah*»«rthat rd4eae U so easily —H diin't seem right!

There is only one way to cure deafness, and thai is by-constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inlamsd condition of ibe mucous lining ot tbe Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless tbe inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out ot tun are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition oi the mucous surfaces.

Quick lunches, the hasty bolting of food chosen because It Is In sight and the, rushing back to -work withou| thought for the abused digestive organs, can. only result, he declares, in a physical condition that invites diseases in variety. He is unquestionably right, says the Indianapolis Star. American people really ca/a^yttJe about what they eat—this In spite ortjte'fact that they possess hotels and restaurants in which all the luxuries of the world are served and markets which supply a wonderful variety of producta. Notwithstanding what is open to them, as a class they are not fastidious as to quality, rhey- have their preferences in foods, of course, but if what they especially care for is not Immediately available, they accept what is at band, gulp it down, dash off and forget within ten minutes what it was they ate. "Quick lunch" places are an institution of the time in the business district in all cities and have an enormous patronage. They came in response to a demand. The managers are not to blame because their patrons insist upon eating In the shortest possible time, nor la the food they serve necessarily at fault. Simple eating is urged oy a Berlin newspaper as a reform/ that should be almedat in germanTjfor tJ^8fi!aii°,°L of society. The present extravagance In dining, it Is asserted, threats** ~<h nanciai Unj^vejlshment as well as digestive ruin. Why is it thaj Germany \m such Famou's ^pas? The Intimation is made that the reason lies in the circumstance that Germany has so many gluttons, who go to the watering places, penitent in the spring and summer, to make amends for the over-eating and over-drinking of which they have been guilty during the winter. The Berlin paper says: It would be a genuine public service on the part of the leading society personages if they would begin by practical examples to wage war on the sensuaT luxurlousnesa of modern entertaining, as far as the culinary end of it 10 concerned. Only by a return to simple .and JBensible dinners can we avert genuine Economic and phy&Jca,l nerjla\ Circumspection ID the~sam*e direction would no£ go amiss in the UnJAed, States, There has-been a growth of Extravagance in the outlay for luxuries nf the table. Many men of means have eaten themselves into evil physical condition. J. ,B. REYNOLDS CHOSEN SECRETARY; HEADQUARTERS BOTH EAST AND WEST PLANNED. HILLES SELECTION DUE TO PROGRESSIVES' WISHES.

A terrific, lightning aud thunder stocm which had been approaching had given no warning of the danger from the wind, but suddenly there were scream's of fright as a whirling ba|Ioon-like cloud approached, racing from the southwest and headed directly toward the market place. With a roar which was deafening the roof of the ball park grandstand was lifted high in the air. it seemed to hang suspended for a moment and then, shattering into a veritable rain of great planks and. beams, was dashed upon the frightened men and wagons in the market place. Immediately there was a panic. Terror-stricken horses reared and dashed frantically to escape. Wagons were pverturned. Men and women were thrown prone by the fury of the wind and run over and rendered unconscious by the dashing teams. Where a moment before the hundreds of loads of produce had been in orderly array awaiting the beginning of the morning's trading there was chaos.

The end of the long fight to oust the senator came after six -days of protracted debate, in which Senator Lorimer himself had occupied the floor for three sessions, making an impassioned defense of his election. The final vote came upon the resolution offered by Luke Lea, senator from Tennessee, declaring the Larimer election by the Illinois legislature in 1909 invalid. The adoption of the Lea resolution carried with it the senate's verdict that corrupt methods and practices were employed In the election of William Lorimer "making his election invalid." The closing moments of the trial were intensely dramatic. Lorimer, holding the floor, making a last defense of bis seat, declared he did not appeal for the vote of any senator, but asked for justice. Senator Lorimer, when the vote was announced, walked slowly toward the back of the room and passed into a cloak room, Senator Smoot, of Utah, throwing an arm over his shoulderT The man who bad occupied a seat in the senate since June 18, 1909, by the vote passes out of the records and never officially has, held a seat in the senate of the United States. The Lea resolution adopted by a vote of almost two to one was as follows: Resolved, That corrupt methods and practices were employed in the election of William Lorimer to the Benate of the United States from the state-of.Illinois,, and that bjs election was therefore invalid. In his closing sentences, Lorimer expressed gratitude for tributes which senators had paid to his private life.

They belong to the class known aa annual vegetables and to the sub-class which are grown for their fruit and seed parts. This group Includes the following vegetables, namely, cucumber, gherkin, muskmelon, pumpkin, squash and watermelon. The cucumber and muskmelon are the most Important, although cucumbers probably stand first These vegetables, taken as a whole, are known as "tentter plants" and require a warm climate and must be planted at the time of season when all danger of frost 1B past. Cucumber. The cucumber, which is one of our oldest vegetables, has been cultivated In India for at least three thousand years. It was first grown in England about 1573 and also by the earliest settlers In this country. The cucumber Is grown commercially on a large scale and under a large orange of climatic conditions. The various sections of the south and along the Atlantic coast are favorable to the production of the early crops while the cooler summers of the north are well adapted to growing pickles. The plants are quite sensitive to frost as well as to extreme heat, but thrive under cooler conditions than melons. The light sandy soils are best for early crops, if earliness Is the chief consideration, however, yields are larger and the bearing period longer in heavy soils. As earliness is such an important factor in securing remunerative prices, many growers start some of their plants under glass. Greenhouses are most valuable for this purpose although hot beds and cold frames are sometimes employed. The soil should receive early plowing and frequent harrowing before planting, and for a very early crop some growers prefer to throw up the land in small furrows thus securing better drainage and somewhat warmer soil conditions. Frequent cultivation until the vines begin to run is recommended. The most important type that is grown in this country and which is especially desirable for Bllcing is the White Spine. Thin is quite pofmlar both for cultivation in the open and under glass. The cucumber, like many other of our vegetables, is not without Its insect enemies and diseases. Among the most important insect enemies may be mentioned the striped cucumber beetle which is yellow above, with black head and wing covers longitudinally striped with black. The beetles are particularly destructive to young plants but also feed on the old plantB as well as the fruit. Various plans have been suggested for the control of! this pest, but arsenical poisons are not successful and preventative measures are usually employed, such as protecting, the hills with square boxes covered with cheese cloth or muslin. The most Important diseases of the cucumber are the downy mildew, leaf blight, and anthracnose. Bordeaux mixture is the chief fungicide used in combatting these diseases. Muskmelon. Muskmelon requires somewhat the same conditions recommended for the cucumber. It is a native of southern Asia and is one of the most popular vegetables in many parts of the world. The muskmelon is much more susceptible to the effects of cold than the cucumber. It will not stand frosts and demands a rather high summer temperature for most satisfactory results. A good plan, especially for this section of the country, Is to start melons under glass in order that they may have a longer growing season so as to mature their crops earlier. It is generally conceded thai the sowing should not occur morelpaa four weeks before setting In the Aid, because^) plants may become stunted or tiie growing may be checked when transferred to the field. Occasionally plants are kept under glass six weeks. Paper, earthen pots, berry baskets and veneer boxes are used to start the plants. Cultivation, care and soil retirements are similar to those recommended 'for encumbers. The other members of this group require similar conditions with slight modifications for each individual crop. THE RKiHTWAYTO CULtWATE CORN A successful corn grower once said: "The *©est time to cultivate corn is before it is planted." He had in mind the proper fitting of the soil for the crop, rather than the cultivation which is usually gifen after the corn is seen in the row. Preparing a good seed bed is an Important part of corn growing, but there are other things which atuat also be considered. The best sftil for corn is a dee*, rich, sandy or stlty loam. This does not mean, however, that corn cannot be frown on any other kind of soil. It means that the largest yields are obtained from this kind. Profitable yielda can be had from many different kinds of; soil providing proper care is taken to prepare the ground before seeding, and proper methods of cultivation are followed. The secret of preparing a good seed bed is to plow early and work often. One can hardly plow too early In the spring, providing the soil is in the proper condition for plowing. If the corn is to follow sod, then the tod should not be left until it has a crop of hay on it and the hay turned under late in the season. Many fields have been ruined for the season by doing this. The growing hay takes out the water, and if the season Is dry, the great bulk of material below the furrow slice will cause trouble, This injury is greatest on the heavier soils. After plowing, work the" soil down good. Harrow not once or twice, but many times, and particularly after s or MICHIGAN Two Well-Cultivated Crops. Had Velvet Mats.

This throrough working, together with the rains, wlil cause a good, firm seed bed to be established. The continuous harrowing will aerate the soil and make plant food available for the young plant Before planting the corn, dig down into the soil to the depth of the furrow slice. If the soil la loose and open near the bottom of the furrow slice the seed bed has not been prepared properly. If it is firm and moist below, and dry and loose near the surface, then there Is a good seed bed for corn, which is one of the first requisites for growing a profitable crop. The producing of such a seed bed is what the successful corn grower meant by saying that the best time to cultivate corn is before it is planted. Good seed must be planted on this good Beed bed, otherwise our careful work will be somewhat wasted. Perhaps, for the most of us, the next thing of importance will be to get after the weeds. Here the weeder may be used to advantage on the lighter soils. The field is gone over once or twice so as to kill the weeds as soon as they have germinated from the seed. The best time to kill weeds is when they are small. It is worth while to gat at them as soon as possible after they have germinated, and the first two or three cultivations count the most in this respect After the plants appear in the rows, then th9 corn should be well cultivated with a good cultivator. On the heavier soils tho spike-toothed harrow might take the place of the weedsr, or the cultivator might be used from the first If the oorn cannot be seen in the rows, or the plants are small, put on the fenders to keep the plants from being covered with soil, and do a good Job. Dont be afraid of cultHhe rating too deep the first ,tlma. over, and use a cultivator that la. adapted to the soil. The deep ^cultivating will let air into the -toll and hasten tho decay of organic matter and tho buildlag up.^f plant food. As soon aa the eorsroote begin to spread between tho rows, tho cultivator should ba run shallower, so as not' to prune the roots too mueh and set the plants back In their growth. As far as the saving of moisture Is concerned, two inches seem to be the most economical depth to cultivate after the first two or three times. If thistles or milkweeds bother, try the thistle sweeps. There are kinds found on tbe market which win do the work effectively. Keep the cultivators running in tho fields'until the corn Is too high fot the twohorse machines. After this, many etiii use the one-horse cultivator until tho oorn gets too bag or the weather too hot to do effective work. tho vital things In thf growing of a" good crdp* of corn are summarised aa foDowa: A good seed bod. good •sod, thorough coloration to km the woods, to save water and to aerate tho Niles.—Frank Brockhaus. proprietor of a Niles reBtaurant, was electrocuted in a peculiar way during a thunderstorm. After a terrific clap of Chunder Brockhaus had observed flames shooting up above tbe roof of the station ot the Southern Michigan electric railway, and supposing the building to be on fire he ran to the Central fire station near by and gave the alarm. He rode on the fire wagon to the scene of the supposed fire and jumped off to the ground at the moment that a high-tension wire'carrying 9,000 volts snapped off high above the head. It fell upon the brace wires below and highly charged the ground in the vicinity of an iron pole which stays the interurban trolley line. Brockhaus jumped into this highly electrified zone and fell dead on the pavement. Another death was that of Spot, a bulldog tb&t has been In the fire department as a mascot for several years. The dog was electrocuted almost at the instant that Brockhaus fell dead, and just a few feet away. Saginaw.—Delegates from every Lutheran synod of the United States will be present at the synodical conference which will be held in Saginaw August 14 to 20. There will be at least 100 delegates and as many visitors. The local committee is now engaged in making the plans for the affair. While each synod throughout the country is separate, having its own government, colleges, etc., the conference, which is really devoted to negro missionary work in the south, is the connecting link between the church divisions. Church work will be discussed during the gathering and on August 18 a big meeting will be held in the auditorium, when negro missionary work will be the topic.

Since the sudden tall of the great Campanile at Venice a few year* ago seleatlflc experiments have been made to afford assurance of the stability of other famous architectural pilar in Italy. Among these is the unique cathedral of Milan, built all of marble, with scores of slender pinnacles, and a lofty main spire terminating in a great marble statue of the Virgin. The ex* perlments on this spire, while demonstrating its complete stability, show interesting effects of the wind and solar rajs. As with other lofty towera, the point of the spire describes daily an elliptical curve, the size and precise form of which vary with atmospheric conditions. But the greatest displacement seldom amounts to more than a single minute of arc, in this case less than a third of an inch. A tempest of uncommon violence in 1905 displaced the top of the spire eight millimeters.—Harper's Weekly. Local News Frank Lemon and T. J. Eagen of Dexter were in town Tuesday.

First Thimble. There Is a tradition that a Dutch silversmith pondered ever a certain notion whieh he had cherished long and silently in the slow working senses whieh he deemed his brain— a notion for a trinket, a fallal, for a dignified lady of Holland. It most be a useful trinket, albeit a ooetly one, meet for so good a sempstress as Dame Allse Van Rensselaer. When the notion took definite shape the thing was quickly wrought la precious metal by fingers as deft as the brain was slow, aad the industrious house* wife proudly wore net only bar first thimble, but the first thimble possessed by any Dutch frau.—Century Magazine. Status That sprang Up In Might. In London, where one of the most luxuriant and beautiful parks la the world, the Kensington Gardens, is a vast playground for children, the lair* les' own month of May was celebrated this year with a rare gift. A statue of Peter Pan, the boy who would not grow up, prettily lilting on an ancient tree-trunk and blowing his pips, which brings the birds and squirrels and field mice out to listen, was set up in a single ntfcfet and when the little children came next day to play they believed that the beautiful image of the little boy who plays with them at make-believe was left by the fairy folk themselves. And who would be so sadly grown up as to tell them any different? The statue, presented by Mr. J. M. Barrie, autby, of the story, "Peter Pan," is of i^fnislte beauty.

In many cases the train of an evening gown is finished with a large tassel, the material being gathered Into It.

I therefore bought a good stave silo— because I consider the stave silo keeps silage perfectly—added 2ft cows to my herd and after feeding them one year :found thai* I couldn't afford to pasture them, for I could keep them much cheaper by feed* lag tnjem silage the year around, winter and sommfer. . This resulted in my purchasing aj>oth|r silo. wSlleMataMv14ee4s nt to say right here that I never much money or expected to make money as I did, the day I ordered w silo for my farm* _ those cows winter and summer for nine Mars and at the present time am keepitg them on about one and one-quarter acres apiece. I summer faUuw this same a£ fetter did except that I plow a little "' plant it to corn. I take good corn for when I am working ler •ad six aeres*. Ww keep imght brood sows and breed them twice a year and fat the pigs. We raise on our farm fifty scree of out fmec& screeofv#ifaJa.n»y and we have some small fields to pasture the bogs. Our wheat last year went forty bushels to the acre* after* nnJerstaed, we had taken off the com and it only took four days' work with our team to put in the crop; simply ran over the land with the cultivator ana followed up with, the drill and we were done. Last Tear's Produce Last year sold forty-seven hundred dollars worth of produce,"besides keeping two families.

Honestly! I think the farmer to-day has too much land. He does not farm it thoroughly. We must strive, to keep more stock and so build up the fertility of our farm. The great amount of wild land in the west is now being cut up in smsll farms. The time of cheap beef: is psst for we have more people and a greater consumption of beef. There is Kale doubt bdt what twothird* of our, farms could be made to produce nearly as much again si they do at the preseut time if properly bandied. I could not keep my cows without jSJUos. They would eat their heads off of. high priced feed and they would not be conditioned jjt they are-to-day on a balanced ration witbsilage a larger portion of their feed* Farmer** 'Stop and think a moment. Lend has doubled in value, the cost of labor has doubled and it costs us more to make ibis beef, pork and butter than it did ten years ago. Bo we must adopt what science has proven so us about better and cheaper feed—the feeding of silage. We must keep more stock and through, the added fertility of our lead, produce more to the acre. Balses Big Crops Cheapest If, on one-hundred acres, we can produce what we produced on two-hundred. we save the work on the other one-hundred acres, and that will save over one-half the labor. I find that since I have been raising big crops, praised them cheaper than the man raising, snaejl crops, end the better I work my land the easier it wojksv You don't have, as, many r weeds and the richer it is the easier it works.

There was not much of a fight, however, and when two ballots disclosed Marshall easily in the lead, Gov, Burke's name was withdrawn and Marshall was proclaimed the nominee by acclamation.

The nomination came on the fourth ballot of the day and the forty-sixth of the convention. Wilson, on the final ballot, got 990, Champ Clark 84, and Gov. Harmon 12. The nomination was then made unanimous. At midnight Tuesday the convention was in session trying to nominate a running mate for Gov. Wilson. The governor himself was strongly in favor of having Champ Clark take second place on the ticket Efforts were made early in the evening by the leaders to get Mr. Clark to accept, but the announcement waa made on the floor of the convention that h e would not take the place.

I had cramps, backache and headache, and was so nervous and weak that I dreaded to see anyone or have anyone move in the room. The doctors gave me medicine to ease me at those times, and said that Z ought to have an operation. I would not Hsten to that, and when a friend of my husband's told him about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and what it had done for his wife, I was willing to take it Now I look the picture of health and feel like it, too. I can do all my own housework, work in the garden and entertain company and enjoy them, and can walk as far as any ordinary woman, any day in the week.

A strong, soft twine or strip of strong oloth is used to tie the two parts at the proper dlstanoe from eaoh other to maintain the upright position of the branch that Is to form the continuance of the trunk.

To a certain e x t e n t you have become a waterman; now learn seamanship. The lesson will take you- all your life Id learn, but you w i l l g e t three or four men's share of pleasure from the l e a r n i n g of it. You w i l l be learning something that no one else can teach you, and that you cau't pass on when you have done with it; something that will be exclusively and peculiarly your own; and In the process you will learn tp know yourself. You will find that you are worth knowing. At this stage of the game it will pay you well to cultivate the society of fishermen—not on their smacks, but ashore when their work is done. Like all men wbo have been pickled and salted down by the sea, they are a good-natured breed, and what many ot them know about knots and splices and.the use of the marllnspike Would fill volumes. If you are intelligent you will find that they like teaching you almost as much as they like whisky and tobacco—even your whisky and tobacco; when they find that you don't patronize them and won't be patronized, their hearts will go out to you—big, strong, sea-salted hearts; you will find that they have a brand of humor exclusively their own, and an insight that you never dreamed of. Their company is good. But beware of their ideas on seamanship! They will voice the usual belief that singlehanders are mad, and that any port in a storm Is better than no port; both of which beliefs are rank heresy! But listen to them when they talk of using the lead, for the sounding-lead is to a seaman what his nose Is to a hound, and more. They will probably tell you that a forty-pound anchor fa heavy enough for any one man to handle in a tideway, but as the size of the yacht you Intend to handle later on must depend on the size of the anchor you can manage without assistance, and on nothing else, you will do well to remember that there is a veteran who has been sailing single-handed around the English Coast for something like forty years, who uses an anchor weighing a hundred and twenty pounds, for a yacht of some thirty tons register! And he does cot buoy his anchor and leave it in a tide-rip when the glass Is falling and he 1« in a hurry to be off. He gets it up and inboard, and cats It down on deck sailor-wise before he starts. Things like that depend on seamanship; and seamanship can be learned only on the high seas from personal experience.- Spend most of your time, then, on the high seat in your little opett. saiUng'boat, and in your spare time study thewaya of fishermen. The basis of your future independence wfll be your sea-anchors and you most never- under any circumstances, or for any reasoo whatever, put to sea witfaoat one.

Any one but a single-hander who witnessed your early efforts would laugh at you; but after a UtV.a while-It will dawn on you that the only opinion la the world that really matters Is that of otnsr slngle-handers, and even then only to the exteat that it agrees with your own. A single-hander is always an opinionated man; and before you have been a year at the game you will be as opinionated as the rest of them. Fancy working hard for two seasons In an open boat and dreaming all the while, as you will be dreaming, of the little yacht you mean to have when you can trust yourself to handle her and feel that at last you can do her iustfce-7-and then sharing her w i t r * 1^^^1^1 WouMtrt'yolf rather wait even another season, If necessary, and have her all to yourself? One more season's' careful planning will do your prospects no harm. There will be thousands of throga to think of—not least of them is the rig and the tonnage of your yacht No one can advise youvon those two points, because no two singte-baaders think alike. But although no single-hander ever took aof ofte'B ad Vice regarding* the type or sise of yacht that he should purchase, there are certain broad rules that may be laid down for the guidance of the beginner. And the first of them is: Never buy a yacht of any kind without first of all sub* mlttlng her to the examination of an independent expert. Later on ypu will become an expert your* self, but as you intend to trust your yacht with your life it would , be an unseamaallke and fu> berty thing to do to Buy one without taking every reasonable and possible precaution. The next thing to bear in mind la that the last thing that you want for- your purpose is a yacht of the racing type. You are going to live on board your yacht^sjcaslbly-fbr weeka at a time. You need a yacht that will be dry and warm and com fortable. You want headroom down below, anc" room to cook and stow your stores and spare sails. And a large water tank is an absolute necessity. A yacht of the cruiser type1'Is what you mus't look out for. Whatever her rig, she must have a long, straight keel, so that she will heave to. and stay hove to, and take the ground, when necessary oi in case of accident, on an even bottom. One more rule must be emphatic ally laid down for the beginner's guidance, and that is that power in any shape or form, electricity, petroleum, eteam or gasoline, is something belonging to tha devil, to. be dabbled with perhaps by yachtsmen, but to be eschewed—along with alt other con trlvances of the devil—by the single-hander. Knowing what you know now of seamanship, you can cross t be Atlantic if you want to, and pick up the Bishop's Rock Light on the other side some fine* morning! Doesn't that appeal to you? Never forget, as you lie there in the bosom of theses, to pray for the unhappy landsman, who has to make bis bed on dry land and has yet to taste his freedom, and the feeling of unmitbxited Wise that belongs only to ihe single-hander! But he must be a selfish man, this elngle^acder, this bara&oY the deep who keeps to himself on hirJtttle yaj$t! Is he? Aft the other feUowi.* the men that Itnow, The sea does not breed selfish man.

Buyers are often surprised at the style in which so called turkey experts snip stock birds and also angry at the cruelty practiced or because they must pay extra express on clumsy crates. Our picture tells its story. That handsome gobbler has just ended a 200 mile trip and is fresh and !ng from the cellar into the chimney about two or three feet above the fireplace or grate. There is generally a wardrobe or close t^at the side of the chimney through which the pipe may run. The pipe should be 8 or 10 Inches in diameter, made of galvanized iron and perfectly air tight. • The" pipe should" fit the openings in the £oqr„ and the, chimney so as to aitaw no gases to escape in the closet, and tojmate the draught stronger.

Deafness Cannot Be Cored By local applications, as they cannot reach the deceased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and tbat is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inlamed condition of tbe mucous lining of tbe Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the iffflamation can bw taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will oi destroyed forever; nine cases out eo ten are caused by Catarrh, which q nothing but an inflamed condition -f the mucous surfaces.

The Parsee, untrammeled by bis sur roundings, Is seen In Bombay in all his wealth of height and dress. The men are, without exception, tall, finely formed and stately and possess a robustness and beauty quite at contrast with their Hindu neighbors. Their street costume is a peculiar long white cotton gown, wide trousers of the same material and color and a tall miter shaped hat. They have a general reputation for sobriety, frugality and sagacity, and they seem to thoroughly understand the accumulation of fortunes, in this respect resembling the Hebrews. The wealthiest residents of Bombay are Parsees. Paper Drinking Cups. In the schools of Austria tbe children are taught to carry several sheets of writing paper in their pockets at all times. Then when a child is thirsty he can roll one of the sheets into a cone and make a perfectly serviceable cup, which may be placed, after being used, in the nearest waste paper box. £ow to roll the cones deftly is taught the children. The tearing of a notch aboat half an inch kmf near one end before-rolling"the cons serves to make the improved cup stronger. „>v •wlss indssawtfsn—. ftsjftjajjssiul secured its independence n}(4fciAfcstto-SwiM w»fc. .Jtejomnienced fcttt*. •» \em roost wttm«MSfiiBg r«~j gfrs#*»* levtl •'yih *Sw^ 'sssMistr** that si men ars" *W V " c**L »tfcti Vtbef*eftS4sves ft «f part » bosssest, • p w t sss» sag sjwssswy " > .

Thompson, Lansing; deputy grand high priest, After one fruitless ballot, following an all-night session, the democratic national convention at 7:10 o'clock Friday morning adjourned until 4 pclock Friday afternoon, when the great struggle for the presidential nomination will be resumed. In the first ballot there was neither sign nor token ot what would be the last chapter of the story. Votes were cast for eight men. The total columns showed under the several candidates these figures: Clark, 440½; Wilson, 324; Underwood, 117½; Harmon, 148; Marshall, 31; Baldwin, 22; Bryan, 1; Sulsser, 2; absent, 1; ndt voting, 1. The net result of the balloting was that all of the elements of the convention were left intact and unbroken In srengh. Chief among the unbroken quantities that were in part solved, by the early morning vote was the uninstructed list. The list originally containing 184 votes had been reduced to 178 by the dropping of the Philippines from the total, which same operation in political mathematics changed the total vote of the convention to 1,088 and made the number essential to a nomination 725¼ by the two-thirds majority rule of the convention & !

Jennings Bryan of Nebraska a thrice-laureled victor, reaffirmed leader of his party and most pronounced radical against "predatory wealth" among big political leaders of the day. At 8:15, Just after Chairman Olllo James had called the night seasion together, he-secured unanimous consent to the presentation of a resolution by Col. Bryan. >Joth)ng like it was ever offered to a convention before. It "resolved" the party Yreecfrom the control of predatory wealth and asked two rich delegateb*-Thoraa]rSF.. Ryan of Virginia and August Belmont of New York—be ousted from the convention. Because some declared the conveittioji had no right iq go behind a sovereign state in the dictation of who sholrHkQr should not he delegates, Col. Bryan withdrew the ousting part of the resonHipa and the remainder carried hysterically by a vote of 88« yeas, 196 noes, w i t h t w o not voting and one absent. ^ ^ \ Bryan" gave way under pressure of h i s friends, not from weakness, In modifying his resolution. The contention would never have beaten him even on the full text of his proposal. Bryan was sure of his ground. He would have commanded well above a majority had he persisted in his demand that Belmont h e thrown Outiof the New York delegation and Ryan be expelled from the Virginia delegation Although twethird* wars required.to pass the resolution under the point of order, the support of more than a majority would have been a moral victory for Bryan and .would have disrupted the convention than and there*.

There are many large hate displayed lor midsummer wear, and nearly all of them- show 'some peculiarity of brim, either'in upward lift or indentations or the- manner of trimming. There are sudden widenings or narrowings also, giving the hat unfamiliar lines about the brim edge, but these shapes are nevertheless well balanced and becoming about the face. As a rule srowna are medium In sise and domeshaped, and there is departure from tbia so infrequently that the brim may be said to.be the essential feature on .which to center attention. Besides the oddity of brims, It Is to be noted that the newest hats show much elaboration in trimmings. Bands of net or chiffon, frills of lace, maline folds, many flowers, velvet ribbons and plumage, are all cleverly managed, sq that the composition of a single'hat include* three or perhaps four material*. The art of the trimmer is more evident In using this variety .than in simply placing a tuft of jplumes, or a wreath of Sowers on a .graceful shape. Both simply trimmed and elaborately made hats are attractive, but the latter are more interesting. As an instance of this successful use of several materials on one hat, one of the rolling brimmed French sailors In white chip may be cited, TMiis MEMORANDUM PAD IS GOOD Will Be Found of Much Value In the Kitchen and Here le Easy Way to Make It.

Just Inside thla fold are two rows, of vaL lace about two inches wide. This Js laid m narrow side plaits, and one cow overlap* the other slightly. This ineida row is finished with a close set wreath of tiny, June rose*. A standing apray of rosea, or a bow of velvet ribbon, could be used with this brim treatment for the addition of height with good effect, although the model had no trimming on the crown.

At the top and bottom bands of broad elastic are sewn across, and under these bands a large number of sheets of notepaper may be slipped and held in their places, and when the uppermost one has been used, it can be pulled from under the elastic in a moment without disturbing the remaining sheets underneath. The pad is edged all round with cord carried into three little loops at each corner. SMALL COATS TO BE WORN Fanciful Little Garments in Msny Materials Are a Feature of the Season. The most difflcoU part, of the fitting of an ererdrapery is in keening the sides straight and situ In outline. The sttt. -skirt -4a now accomplished with an over-effect. There is every Indication that the Short, fanciful little coat In silk of one kind or another is to be an important item of the summer outfit this year. The eton, the bolero and a host of models more or less related to these two old friends are already in evidence, the less closely related coatees showing a leaning toward abbreviated mantle or dolman lines, in keeping with; the ubiquitous taffetas and their bouUtonees, niching and quillings. On the whole, these little wraps are picturesque and piquant. Perhaps some of them are a trifle too odd, but that depends a great deal upon the woman'who wears them.

And from the east tt>; the weat women have been . taught -alaj> - how uaaf uj . the screen,£aa be in a-decorative scheme. By screen' perhaps one inneqeibly means the uau&l fourfold arrangement but it-la alao meant to oonyey the flpely. carved «adrartlsti«aHy deeigned oak or aimilar wood erection which one flndjeometlmes used instead of doors. But each a screen must be in the right plftgfc aad^d^p^a^ra have long since realised bow fine an effect can be produced by the right Mad of screen in the right place. . r And now architects are commencing' to know its value, and In modern bouses th« screen is, to a certain fkte^ nt, replacing the oid-fashlpned door. That If to say, in a "house boasting of five rooms, and not in a suburban villa residence. By the substitution of the screen for the ordinary door a house of vistas Is the result. Long rooms leading one from the other, the decoration of each so arranged that the color scheme and furnishing seem to blend artistically to form a perfect whole. And that Is where the decorator triumphs. Today the four leaf screen has perhaps reached a culminating point in artistic conception, and In the exquisite handwork which distinguished the screens which come to America from Japan, although there are many beautiful examples which are made here. For instance, for a Louis XV. drawing room nothing could be more In harmon with the period than a screen in tapestry. The latest Japanese screens are the work of artists who understand and appreciate the blending of the most delicate and the most crude colors, and the result la a masterpiece of needlework. On a dark background one design represents a tall tree standing in a meadow, and In the long grass are seen tiny white wild flowers. In an other panel there is a tree overlooking a pool, the branches casting deep shadows in the water. The framework of the screen is lacquer. Another beautiful screen represents Mount Fujiyama and the Inland sea, the rosy light refleeted from the enowclad peak shining on the water; beside the lake, standing sentinel, there is a tall tree, the light shining on the trunk and turning it to green and, grol<|. In tbs water there are some white ducks disporting themselves. Bach panel of th|s screen forms a complete picture. Perbaps the moat beautiful of all waa the acreen in dull black cloth, which formed a perfect background for the scene depicted, tall purple and white iris growing in a pool, the tall, spiky leaves being so absolutely perfect and the flowers so wonderfully worked as to make one doubt whether It could be embroidery. Over the pool hovered a solitary bird with a red and blue head and a long red bill, which gave the little touch of color which the picture needed. $ Wk TOH- if * SOMS WHO HILPED KILL PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY RUNNING, Several Oping Back t o Old OeeupatJone— Ueut*Gov.

Fir Coigreu it tit Slxtl District The Hon. 8. W. Smith of Pontiac is in the race for renomina* tion. Mr. Smith has proved himself to be the right man in the right place. Always on the right side of every question of national importance, he has always worked for the best interests of his otrastituents. There was never a request made by any person in the sixth district to him for his official assistance but what received from him prompt attention and a reply and if he could aid in any way he was always ready. H i espoused the cause of rural mail delivery in its infancy and did as much as any member of congress to make it general so that the farmers of the country could be in touch with the whole world every day. His personal work in congress for the reduction of the cost of carrying the mail on the railroads ox the country resulted in a saving of over five millions of dollars. The old soldiers of the> district have reason to appreciate his service to them. In tact, he has been a true representative of all the people ot the sixth district, and we predict his nomination at the primariaa and his election in November,--tfvingaton Republi* Point of Honor Bert aatat laso the house with a whoop of deUant Rs dashed out Into the Woken, where his mother was saafcJatT a pie for dinner, and Instantly • ^ — « ~ WOK "Bar, awtherr he shouted.

If you want to be treated RIGHT, and are desirous of getting quantity as well as quality, go to TIIB CommeDcemeat Exercises On last Thursday evening June 20, occured the commencement exercises of the Pinckney High School at the opera house. An unusually large number of relatives and friends of the graduates composed the appreciative audience The decorative scheme deserves special commendation, It was designed and carried out by Mrs. B. D. McDougall. The stage was converted into a box like structure and made to blossom anew in its dress of blue and gold bunting, the class colors. The five graduates were seated in a circle before the footlights of commencement and blazoned forth their sentiments of four years of happy high school life on the arch bearing their motto, "We Finish to Begin." The program which had been prepared through hard and patient labor on the part of both teachers and graduates was of high order. An instrumental solo by Norma Vaughn opened the evenings exercises. It was ably rendered under the skillfull hands of Miss Vaughn. Prayer was offered by Rev. W. H. Ripon, following which Hazel B. Hinchey gave the Salutatory, extending the greet* ings of the class of 1912. "Is it Worth While", a subject vast in scope was well delivered by Lynn W. Hendee. Lila Chubb next favored the audience with a charm* ing vocal selection entitled, "A Creole Love Song". Two essays, "Higher Education" and "The Golden Age", given respectively by Ruth A. Frost and J. Feme Hendee, were well received. They showed keen insight into the questions uppermost in the minds of American educators today. Madelene Moran and Laura Burgess added much to the enjoyment of the evening in the able playing of an instrumental duet. The Valedictorian, H. Bernardine Lynch urged her classmates on to greater achievements now that they were entering from the harbor of their school days into the sea of life. The people of Pinokney always look forward with great anticipation to a program upon which the name of Henry Isham appears and they were not disappointed in his rendering of the "Mazurka de Concert", by Musin, and his encore "Marguerite". He was ably accompanied by Sadie Harris. Rev. Joseph Coyle won the applause and the hearts of tbe people in his first appearance upon the stage of the Pinckney opera house. Prof. H. D. McDougall made a few well chosen and appropriate remarks in his presentation of the well earned diplomas. The Male Quartette composed of E. E. Hoyt. Arthur Vedder, H. H. Swarthout and Percy Swarthout gave two selections which won a round of applause, The program closed with the benediction by Rev. A* Balgooyan, and the class of 1912 passed oat into the School of Life. l a g a n State Fair By a happy thought the management of the Michigan State Fair struck the right track when the noisy Midway attractions which have hitherto occupied the most prominent point of vantage in the fair grounds, along the walk leading to the grand stand, the horse races, night horse show and other events, were removed to a point down towards the Graud Trunk sidingw. The former location of midway shows will be occupied by attractions for children, a pony show andother events of an elevating and interesting character. In past years visitors at the Fair have obtained the idea that the State Fair gave to much prominence to its Midway shows. The problem of placing this show attended by so many, at a point which woald not put it too far away, but at the same time would remove it from the direct path of travel. With the show in its present location, and decidedly different from last year, when every effort was made to purify the exhibition, it is not improbable that the attractians of this year will be even more attractive with the masses. All freaks and pit shows have been refused space, and the Midway will not be objectionable" to ladies and children in the future.

So he knew about the pajamas, too! i f[ half roBe from my chair. i—1 assure you, sir—" I began stlf- »y. His fussy shrug checked me. "No, no, we'll JuBt have to wait till Jack sets up. The only thing I'm anxious about 1» the scenery and the view poinds; and I just khow if Francis went with you, you would never see any of it." A By Jove, 1 thought that quite likely enough, but of course it was devilish personal of him to say so. And dash seeing the scenery and view points, anyway—who wanted to see them, if they could see her? I was just going to suggest this, when he went on: "The fact Is—" He hesitated, then illcked his ashes with a Bigh. "Oh, well, since I've said as much as i have, I should go further, I suppose. It's only fair not to leave you in the dark, especially as my daughter was enthusiastically telling me just now" —puff—"that she already looks on :you aa one of the family." ""By Jove, did she though?" 1 liltched to the front or the chair. "How dev—I mean how—* Ha nodded. "And so I feel Justified to talking to you frankly—not that 1 want to prejudice you against Francis, you understand, but just because" —hit head wagged :s*>berly—• Francis won't do!"

I felt myself shrink together, xttf knees slanting away from hUn. My dashed monocle hung limp. He angled closer. "Jack's drinking Is bad—that I admit, but perhaps— jh'm—he comes by it naturally; still ^jactrftM never forgotten that he Is a rffeaUesnas—the son of a gentleman— _&nsVba« never been what you would **«fM¥*^ujAer ; FTaode*-w.&ej»!r his hands.

I moistened my lips. Then l brightened, tor perhaps he meant bridge—and that was good form, for there was my Aunt Julia, who lived by it—fact! Hut his head shook impatiently when I suggested that he meant this. "Bridge!" he exploded. "Why, Francis doesn't know bridge from casino! Poker, I tell you, and faro—and all the rest. The plucking was done nightly at a certain—er—club, the establishment of a gentleman by the name of McQInty—'Spot' McGinty— oh, you know%the place, then?" I faced him earnestly. "I—er— Judge Billings, do I understand you— that is, it can't be that you are speaking of—er—Frances?" I Btammered incredulously. "I mean your Frances —surely you are not!" "I Just am!" His Jaw set with a snap. "Just who I'm talking about and nobody else, young man! I mean my Francis—Francis Leslie Billings— who else could I mean?" He almost groaned. "Oh, you don't know Francis!" Dash it, what they all chorused at mo! They seemed pretty positive about it, too, and 1 was jolly miserable; but looking back now, I somehow think of that moment as being the point where I reached the parting of the what-you-call-'ems. Meantime, her father was studying me a little oddly and smiling. " I s e e you don't quite like what 1 say about Francis," he remarked, puffing complacently. I looked him straight in the eye. Frmam&J dom;t,,if you must know," I blurted. - Tjbe*. \ screwed my monocle tight and"straightened forward. "By Jove, I think yon, ought to be ashamed of yourself, you know!" "Wh—what's that?—Llghtnut!" He turned a beet color and grasped the I arms of his chair. "Oh, 1 do." I stood up and he followed! "I think if that poor child had bad l f little—er—fbrbeaffnee and kindness—that sort of thing—oh, dash It, I just think you'vo been infernally harsh always—yea, 1 do!" "WeM, I'll be-^"He swallowed It, neck forward, and stood panting a bit "Harsh, eh?" he Jerked at tee.. "Urn!" He stood there, hia'Jeet braced apart, bis wblte brows beetling at the floor. "Harsh!" He cocked bis bead on ene side, thrusting out his heavy underlip. Then came a sniff and a grunt and oh, be looked black! And just then came a quick breath, and 1 caught a murmur: "I wonder new If, atfer am that la trite! By faJbired trejabtf Qeorgi, taeV say oWtdren - a f t d ^ Th<. i mutter trailed off.

"I'm going to t r y your way—by George, ill do it j .tonight!" His eyes seemed to hold me with a more kindly and personal interest. "Do you know I can't tell you how glad I am that you rind so much in Francis to like; indeed, I am delighted." Still studying me attentively, he musingly reached for afresh light. "In point of tact, Llghtnut, 1 am free to say I hope the intimacy begun between you two will grow closer. It would be a thundering good thing for Francis and a great comfort to me." And, by Jove, he smiled at me—a devilish pleasant smile! So I Just leaned forward and made a go: "Thanks awfully; and—er—by the way—" Then I stuck, boggled wildly an instant and went on: "That is to say, this intimacy, you know—has It been too short to justify—" 1 gulped. "Er—would you be willing to trust—" And I lost the dashed idea again, floundered a bit and took another shy-. "Oh, I say, you know, have I your permission to speak to Frances—er— you know?" "You Bpeak to Francis?"—he Just leaped toward me— "Why, my boy!" And he was wringing my arm with one hand while the other clasped my shoulder. "My de-e-ear boy—why, Llghtnut!" By Jove, he almost gushed! "You're not Joking now, are you?" He peered anxiously into my face. "No, by George, 1 believe you really mean it!" And he went to pumping like mad. "How awfully good of you—self-sacrificing is the word! Are you quite sure you don't mind?" "Mind?" By Jove, I think I looked what I felt at such a dashed silly question. "Well! well! well! My dear young friend!" And ob, he went on In the most disgusting way—why, dash it, you would have thought I was dotng him some favor! \ guessed, though, that It was the usual custom, but it seemed rum—for I should have thought that In giving your daughter away, you put the thanks up to the other fellow. But Pugsley says the rule varies—quite often varies! Anyhow, 1 felt so gratified that I had taken tbe honorable course and spoken to her father—understand so many do not at all, you know. As It was, It gave me quite a comfortable glow of pride, and I reflected how much better it always is to follow the wise dictates of your wbat's-lts-name! "By Jove!" 1 thought, as I nodded and smiled back, "I wonder what he would say if he knew that Frances and I are already engaged!" CHAPTER XXIII. The Family Blaek Sheep. Presently 1 got In a word: "Then Judge, I have your permission to speak to Frances?" "Permission?" Ha lifted bis hands and eyes. "You certainly have, my boy—don't I mako it clear? Wby, I'm simply delighted—and grateful— oh, so grateful to yon!" And, by Jove, he meant It—there was no mistaking his fervency! But it made me feel like a silly aas, you know. Custom or no custom, It Just made me a bit nifty to think ber father would speak this way. Might be good form, but it appeared rotten taste—lots of things seem that way. dash it! Suggested «.hli to Pugsley once, but he was so devilish shocked couldn't eat his luncheon—wasn't able to fetch a dashed word for four hours! "Why, Llghtnut," be dropped to a chair, leaning forward, with shining eyes, "you can't possibly know what this means just at this time! Why, if you hadn't offered to Bpeak to Francis, it's not likely that any one else ever would!" "Judge!" I ejaculated, shocked. "Who would want to?" And ne grimaced horribly. "Oh, I say now!" I protested warm-, ly. "My boy, I tell you I know—yoii don'tH" He lifted his hand eloquently, deflecting the corners of his mouth— oh, such a way! "No, elree, I tell you there's not another living man would dare chance it!" lie threw himself backward, puffing his cheeks at rae and walling his eyes rrlghtfully. "In fact, hereabouts—where Francis is known, there have been two men— only just two—who ever had the temerity to do it." "Oh!" I commented. Wondered if one of these was the other chap she was engaged to. He proceeded impressively: "One of these, my dear sir, was our rector —a most charming and venerable old man, now nearly eighty-three and partially paralyzed and deaf; lives a sweet, patient life all alone, you know, with no one in the world to care for him. Well, sir," he stiffened dramatically, leveling one ringer at me, "do you think that Francis would even listen to him?" Did I? Well, dash It, did I? Hut I tried to mumble something polite. "And then—" he puffed as he relighted his cigar, "there's Jack's chauffeur, you know." "Kh, Jack's—what's that?" I gripped the arms of my chair. "Yes," he npdded, "Jack's chauffeur. Oh, I was so disappointed at the result of his effort!" The old gentleman slipped back in his chair with a sigh. "Francis just swore at him, you know!" "By Jove!" I managed to get out— and yet, somehow, I -was devilish pleased about it. "You see?" And he spread out his hands. "Absolutely no sense of appreciation, you observe; and it had seemed such a splendid chance! You see they had been so Intimate—oh, are still, for that matter." I caught my breath. "In—intimate!" I stammered. "You don't mean Frances and this chauffeur?" "Oh, ^esTr-earelessly, "Scoggins is all right; 'very superior young man for his position—fond of Francis, you know, and 1 really think has great influence." He puffed complacently an instant. "Fact Is, they are always together when Francis is home"—puff —"motoring, boating, or else off somewhere camping together." "Wfha-at—what's that—not camping?" I looked at him aghast. "Oh, come nO/W, Judge—really you don't mean that, do you—not camping together?" I spoke excitedly, but he JuBt stared at me with an expression of blank surprise. "Eh?

SPEECHES VIGOROUSLY SUPPORT HIS POLICIES. Colonel Walks Into HaH af Rump Convention Name Him as Their Candidate for President. The Roosevelt delegates' and alternates met at Orchestra hall, Chicago, and nominated Theodore Roosevelt for president of the United States. At the same time they declared that they represented the majority of the delegates and alternates "legally elected to the Republican convention." There was tremendous enthusiasm when Col. Roosevelt's name wa* placed in nomination. Col. Roosevelt, who came into the ball after the nominating resolution was adopted, thanked them for tiie nomination, said that he recognized them as lawfully elected delegate* representing an overwhelming majority of the voters at the primaries, but ga'..l he would accept the nomination subject to the formation and approval of a new party. He told them to go into convention to nominate for the presidency a progressive candidate of their people and then meet in mass on a progressive platform. "Carry Out W i l l of Voters." Following.is the last of the nominating resolutions: "We, delegates and alternates to the Republican national convention, representing a clear majority of the delegates and alternates legally elected to the convention, in meeting assembled, make the following declaration: "We were.elected by a majority of the Republican votes of our respective districts and states to nominate Theodore Roosevelt in the Republican national convention as the candidate1 of our party for president and thereby carry out the will of the voters as expressed at the primaries. We have earnestly and conscientiously striven to execute the commission entrusted to us by the party voters. "For five days we have been denied justice in the national convention. The result has been accomplished by the action of the now defunct national committee in, placing upon the preliminary roll of the convention and thereby seating upon the floor of this convention a sufficient number of fraudulently elected delegates to control the proceedings of the eonven tion. These fraudulent delegates once seated have by concerted action with one another put themselves upon the permanent roll, where they constitute an influence sufficient to control the convention and defeat the will of! the party as expressed at the primaries. "We have exhausted every known means to hdid of? tttW ©e»sl»lracy, aai8 10 prevent* this 'ffaud upon the popular will, but without success. We were pent to this convention bearing the most specific instructions to fjlace Theodore Roosevelt in nomination as the candidate of our party for president, and we, therefore, deem it to be our duty to carry out those toi- Btructions in the only practically atvd feasible way remaflning^ppen to us, "Therefore, be it resolved that we. representing the majority of the votes of the Republican party, and of the delegates and alternates legally elected to the national Republican convention, in compliance without instructions from the party voters,.hereby nominate Theorore "Roosevelt as the candidate of our party for the office of president of the United States and we call upon him to accept such nomination in compliance with the will of the party voters, "And, be it further resolved, that a committee be appointed by the chair to forthwith notify' Colonel Roosevelt of the action here taken and revest.' him to appear before ug in this hall as soon us convenient." Roosevelt Accepts. Col. Roosevelt, in replying to the nomination, spoke as follows: "Gentlemen: 1 thank you for your nomination, and in you 1 recognize the lawfully elected delegates to the Republican convention who represent the ovewhelming majority of the voters who took part in the Republican primaries prior to the convention, and who represent the wish of the majority of the lawfully elected members of the convention. I accept t*^ nomination subject to but one condition. "This has now become a contest which cannot be settled merely along the old party lines. The principles that are at stake are as broad and as deep as the foundations of our democracy itself. They are in no sense sectional. They should appeal to all honest citizens, east and west, north and south; they should appeal to all right'thinking men, whether Republicans. or Democrats, without regard.to their previous party affiliations. "1 feel that the time has come when not only all men who believe in progressive principles, but all men who believe in those elementary maxims of public and private morality which must underlie every form of siu\?ssful free government should join in one movement, Therefore, 1 ask you to go to your several homes to find out the sentiment of the people at home and then again come together, I suggest by mass convention, to nominate for the presidency a "progressive candidate on a progressive platform, a candidate and a platform that will onable us to appeal to northerner and southerner, easterner and westerner. Republican and Democrat alike, in the name of our common American, citizenship. "If you wish me to make the run for president of the United States I will make it, even if only one state should support me. The only condition I impose is that you shall feel entirely free when you come together to substitute any other man in my place if von deem it better for the movement, and in such case I wilJ gk-e him my heartiest support."

Roosevelt- aoJ3 .prepare a plan and platform to be'presented to the bolters' convention, No definite announcement of the plan was made today and the date of the convention Is still to be decided. It was rumored that it might be held here in Chicago on Aug. 3 and also that an attempt might be made to call the Roosevelt progressives together at As"bury Park. In general, the plan seems to be to utilize the Roosevelt machine in states that the colonel carried at the primaries and in other states to present a complete progressive ticket. In New York, for instance, if the plans talked for are carried out. there will be progressive candidates for governor, congress ami other elective offices that may be open when the contest begins.

It may be laid down BB a general rule that the ordinary man never knows when a woman's dre&t> flta or not—unless, of courBe, it 1B an extraordinary misfit. His replies to inquiries on that poiDt are, as practically all husbands will attest, based on what he thinks the woman thinks of it. When a wife, for instance, comes Into the room wearing a new dress, with a smile on her face, and turns around several times and asas him what he thinks of the fit, he replies without hesitation that it Is all right—that be like* the pattern exceedingly and that he doesn't think he ever saw her wear anything more becoming. If, on the contrary, she comes in with corrugated brows and Inquires In a distinctly dissatisfied tone what he thinks of the dress, he Instantly remarks that, though it looks fairly nice, yet there is still something about It that he doesn't like. He can't eay exactly what it is that seems out of kelter, but there is certainly Bomething wrong with <:hat dress and it ought to be altered at once. But it is only Just to the men to say that their ignorance of what constitutes the fit of a dress is paralleled by the feminine Inability to realize what goeB to make up a well-fitting suit for a male person. As a rule, a woman's advice •with respect to a man's suit Is-the most dangerous thing a man can take. To some, each new spring comes with the freshness of a first one, and there is an evanescent charm about it which no other season possesses. It is a long series of progressions, beginning with the first soft southern breeze, the melting of the snow and the earliest warble of the pioneer blue bird, a tiny patch of sky flown down to earth, the unlocking of mountain streams, the soft pUBsy willow buds and the twilight piping of frogs. There is premonition and expectancy in the air. Then, with alternating showers and sunshine, the dreary-looking earth takes on little by little a fresh robe of verdure, pale green at first, half hiding the skeleton outlines of the trees and wrapping the landscape In a misty dream of beauty. There are varying shades; here and there where there are oaks, splotches of brownish purple, and along the hillsides great masses of blossoms, dogwood and Judas tree and billowy reaches of white and pink orchards. All along the way In dooryards are white and purple lilacs loading the air with fragrance, and the fields are spangled with golden dandelions. That men of wealth in increasing numbers are deserting the ranks ol '"the idle rich" and devoting their time, talents and a part of their money to useful public service, is one of the encouraging fruits of democracy in this country, The charge has often been made, that very wealthy men dr, not bear their Just proportion of the public burdens, and posBlbly many ol them do not. Possibly many of them lack a sense of responsibility. During the past quarter of a century, hawever, there have been in American public life, or in semi-public life, a great number of men who feel that riches, as well as noblesse, oblige, says the Boston Globe. It would be a superfluous task to enumerate them— the men in whom a social conscience has been developed and who find the performance of public duties more attractive than polo or golf. The courts and the imperious ruler by divine, right do not always pull together, as appears from a ease in Germany, where a tenant of the emperor sued his landlord and won in two cqurta. There was a precedent for th£s Is the reign of Frederick the Great, who wanted to remove a mill that spoiled his view from Sans Souci, but the courts upheld the sturdy miller through a controversy which Carlyle celebrates over several pages. SHU such things occur Infrequently eiiough In Germany to get Into print when they do happen. It has been decided by a Chicago Judge that the earning capacity -of- a performing monkey 1s $300 A week.

TAFT WON AMID RIOTOUS SCENES AMONG DEldEr GATES. Margin of Twenty-one Votes the Necessary 540 nils His Manager's Forecast. Ful- Nomination lor the presidency, with the party admittedly facing the greatest crisis in its history, came to William H. Taft, of Ohio, at 9:25 o'clock Saturday in the Republican national convention. James S. Sherman likewise was renominated as vice-president. The revolt of many of the Roosevelt Relegates in the convention was on from the moment the permanent roll containing the names of contested delegates was approved. A "valedictory" statement was read in behalf of Col. Roosevelt, asking that his name be not presented and that his delegates sit in mute protest against all further proceedings. A great majority of the Roosevelt delegates in the Illinois and all in the Missouri and Idaho delegations declined to follow this advice, but Col. Roosevelt's sway over the delegations from California, Kansas, Maine, Minnesota, Nebraska, New .lersey, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and West Virginia was all bat absolute. Still Loyal to T. R. Most of the delegates from these states announced their purpose of helping give Mr. Roosevelt an independent nomination at another hall later in the evening. The split in the convention occasioned no surprise. It waB but a fulfillment of predictions that had been made during the past several days. The closing scenes of the convention were marked by counter demonstrations for President Taft and Col. Roosevelt. The first test vote after the announcement of the Roosevelt valedictory came on the adoption of the party platform. The affirmative vote was GGG. Roosevelt delegates present and not voting numbered ''A3. There were 5U noes, l!6 of them from the La Follette states of Wisconsin and North Dakota. Senator l>a Follette, of Wisconsin, was placed before the- convention, but Col. Roosevelt's wishes were carried out by his followers and they remained silent during the call of the states for nominations. STATE NEWS IN BRIEF. Carried Out Instructions, Many oi the delegates, however, carried out their primary instructions and voted for the coloneL. On the voting for president, the Roosevelt delegates again, as a role, remained silent. The detailed vote was: Taft, 501; Roosevelt, 107; La Follette, 41; Cummins, 17; Hughes, 2; not voting, i>.4; absent, G. At times during the balloting the convention was in great confusion.. Roosevelt Men Silent. The Roosevelt program as determined upon was carried out at Saturday's session of the convention after the convention had received the last of the credentials committee report and had become permanently organized. There was no bolt, but in accordance with the program no roll call was demanded, and after "the permanent organization was completed the Roosevelt men did not vote. This was in obedience to the request of the colonel contained in a statement read to the convention. The colonel's statement was read by Henry J. Allen, of Kansas. Mr Allen supplemented it with a state-' ment of his own, which be said represented the views of a majority of the Roosevelt delegates. The convention nad been in session four hours and a half, when Mr. Allen got up to read Mr. Roosevelt's statement right after the report of the committee on permanent organization had been received and adopted and Mr. Root had become permanent chairman. The announcement by Mr Allen that he had a statement to make from Theodore Roosevelt led up to a noisy demonstration by , the Roosevelt men lasting 20 minutes. The convention—the fifth day—began at 10:40, Saturday morning, when Senator Root's gavel whacked the table in some unusually vigorous strokes. The convention had been adjourned to meet at 10 o'clock, but at that hour only a few delegates were In their seats. It was a weary and faded-looking lot, of delegates and alternates that came slowly Into the coliseum Saturday morning.

With the report will be a resolution appointing five or possibly seven of the leading lawyers of the house to act as managers of the trial, which will be held by the senate.

ALSO GAVE HIS PERSONAL AFFAIRS PREFERENCE. Governor Declares Official Guilty of Misfeasance and Malfeasance in Office—Miner Cases of MIs- . conduct ' Governor Chase S. Osborn has made public his charges against State Tax Commissioner Robert H. Shields. In 21 separate counts Shields is charged with drunkenness, misfeasance and malfeasance in office. The governor gives specific lists of various properties in Lansing and Detroit that he alleges were underassessed alleges that a member of the commission failed to visit each county every year as required by law and that more than 10 clerks were employed by the board. Probably the most serious charge is that Shields attempted to influence various daily newspapers by threats of increasing their taxes. The governor in his charges practically presents a brief, which was evidently drawn up by a lawyer, as the argument is presented that by reason of his connection with various mining companies Shields' position on the tax commission is incompatible and that he 'made many unnecessary trips from Houghton in connection with bis official work. It is also charged that the board did not hold the necessary number of meetings and that out of 23 meetings Shields was abesnt from twelve. Shields is cited to appear on June 25 to make answer to the charges, and some spicy facts are looked for when the matter is taken up. The governor himself is a member of the commission and therefore an interested party in the work of the commission. . ,. » Eagles Close Convention.

Michigan is to have a new electric railroad if the state railroad commission authorizes the company to incorporate. Representatives of the Michigan Lakeside & St. Joe Electric railway appeared before the commission in Lansing and asked authority to incorporate with a capitalization of $760,000. The proposed road will have Michigan City, Ind„ for its starting point and if the present plans materialize St. Joe will be the Michigan terminal. The distance between these points is 40 miles, 30 of which are in this state. Increases Capitalization. The state railroad commission authorized the Centervllle Water & Electric Light Co. to increase its capitalisation from $10,000 to $85,000. The plant of this company is located at Centervllle, St. Joseph county, and it-is understood the increase in capitalisation will permit the concern to build additions to its lines and enable it to reach into new territory. clans and nurses.

The story has been told so often that there is Scarcely a new angle from which to view It,, but to the younger generation of Americans the thrilling ride of Caesar Rodney Is not so familiar as it well deserves to be, and will bear re-telling. The final debate in Congress, in the committee ol the whole, upon the adoption of the Declaration ol Independence, began at 9 o'clock on Monday, July 1. On that day Pennsylvania, seven of whose delegates were present, voted against adoption. The vote of Delaware, having two delegates present, was divided. Thereupon McKean, of Delaware, who had voted affirmatively, wrote a frantic letter to the absent Delaware delegate, Caesar Rodney, imploring him to come and cast his vote, and thus turn the scale for Delaware. Rodney at the time was 80 miles away, at Dover, at one or the other of his farms, Byfleld and Poplar Grove. He suffered tortures from the cancer, which, starting on bis nose, had spread so that he had to wear a all over one side of his face. PENDENCE •green silk shield to hide the •disfigurement; it was of this chronic affliction that he died. A contemporary chronicle describes him as "an animated skeleton—Indeed, all spirit, without corporeal integument." McKean'a messenger left Philadelphia late in the afternoon of July 1. It was necessary to get Rodney hack to Independence Hall t>y July 4, the day appointed for taking the vote upon the adoption of the Declaration. All night, all day he rode at top speed; and Rodney is supposed to have started on the return journey in the evening of the second. That ride of Rodney's deserves to go down in history ' alongside of Paul Revere's And Philip Sheridan's. In def a u l t of missing detail the •imagination must provide the Vplcture of the tall, gaunt * spectre of a man, half- $*T*~* masked and riding like a demon, urging.his steed •onward through the night with whip and spur, Along a road abounding In pitfalls, with black mllea separating one warm, yellow cabin light from the next What wai he thinking of as be rode onward?- Not of the pain of the cancer, slowly eating away his countenance and sapping his vitality; not of the risk he ran, a solitary horseman, of belnr waylaid and robbed or murdered upon the lonely journey. He heeded not the hunger and the sleeplessness; he was thinking only of the fact that his vote would turn the ... -day for Delaware;-Delaware, though a little state, f'-Xk--' m r h t influence Pennsylvania, and so the vote of ^ e colonies would be unanimous for a declara- / tfcn that would immortalise the men who made i;?^lvl e»4 signed It, and enfranchise the people or the irteen colonies and their descendant*.

Declaration. Pennsylvania, by three of her live delegates present, supported Delaware's action, and thus by the ride of Rodney the unanimous vote of the coloniea (with the solitary and temporary exception of New fork) was that day secured for the Magna -Charta of our American liberties, «tt waa 2 o'clock in the afternoon."

The excited nultltude ill the streets responded erlth It la to the everlattlng fame of ThOmaa Jefferv% son that his hand drafted the Declaration of Independence. Among hlB papers he left many letters and documents which throw a flood of light upon the motives and objects of that gathering of American statesmen. He told the following anecdote characteristic of Benjamin Franklin: "When the Declaration of Indepenw* dence was under the consideration of fj Congress, there were two or three un- ^** lucky expressions in it which gave offense to some members. The word* jgUl 'Scotch and other foreign auxiliaries,' fJJH excited the ire of a gentleman or two " ^ ^ of that country. Severe strictures on the conduct of the BritlBh king, in negativing our repeated repeals of the law which permitted the importation of slaves, were disapproved by some southern gentlemen. Although the offensive expressions were immediately yielded, these gentlemen continued their depredations on other parts of the Instruments. I was sitting by Dr. Franklin, who perceived that I was not insensible to these mutilations. "'I have made it a rule/ said be, 'whenever In my power, to avoid becoming the draftsman of papers to be received by a public body. I took my lesson from an incident which I will relate to you. When I was a journeyman printer, one of my companions, an apprentice batter, having served out his time, was about to open shop for himself. His first concern was to have a handsome signboard, with a proper Inscription. He composed It in these words: "John Thompson. hatter, makes and sells hats for.ready money," with a figure of a hat subjoined. But he thought be would submit it to his friends for their amendments. The first he showed it to thought the word "hatter" tautologous, because followed by the words, "makes hats.'* which showed he was a hatter. " It was struck out The next observed that tbe word "makes" might as well be omitted, because his customers would not care who made the hats. If good and to their mind, they would buy by whomsoever made. He struck it out. A third said he thought the words, "for ready money." were useless as It was not the custom of the place to sell on credit. Everyone who purchased expected to pay. They were parted with, and the inscription now stood, "John Thompson sells hats.*4 "Sell* hats," says his.next friend.- "Why. nobody will expect you to give them away. What, then. Is the use of that word?" It wsa stricken out, and "hats" followed it—the rather as there was one painted on the board. So his Inscription was reduced ultimately to "John Thompson" with the figure of a hat subjoined.'" In a letter (o the editor of the Journal de Parts. Jefferson gives the following account of the adoption of the DecleraUo* of independenee. "On the 9th of June, 177«, the delegates from Virginia moved, In obedience to Instructions from their* conettattote, that Congress should declare the Thirteen United <Jc4eaJ*» to be independent of Onset Britain, that a confederation should be formed to bind them together, and measures be taken tfor procuring tbe assistance of foreign powers.

Carolina and Georgia, were decided for a separation; but that six others still hesitated, to wit: New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and South Carolina. Congress, deslrouB of unanimity and seeing that the public mind was advancing rapidly to it, referred the further discussion to the 1st of July, appointing In the meantime a committee to prepare a Declaration of Independence, a second to form Articles of Confederation of the States, and a third to propose measures for obtaining foreign aid. "On the 28th of June, the Declaration of Independence was reported to the house, and was laid on the table for the consideration of the members. On the 1st day of July they resolved themselves into a committee of the whole, and resymed the consideration of the motion of June 7 (declaring Independence). It waB debated through the day, and at length was decided in tbe affirmative by the vote of nine states, viz: New Hampshire, Massachusetts. Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Maryland. Virginia, North Carolina and Georgia. Pennsylvania and South Carolina voted against It. Delaware, two members present, was divided. The delegates from New York declared they were for it, and their constituents also; but that the Instructions against it which had ben given them a twelvemonth before, were still unrepealed; that their convention was to meet in a few days, and they asked leave to suspend their vote till they could obtain a repeal of their instructions. Observe that all this was in a committee of the whole Congress, and that according to the mode of th-olr proceedings, the resolution of that committee to declare themselves Independent waa to be nut to'the same persons reassumlng their forms as a Congress. "It was now evening, the members exhausted by a debate of nine houre, during which all the powers of the soul bad been distended with the magnitude of tbe object, and the delegates of South Carolina desired that the final decision might be put off to the next morning that they might still weigh In their own minds their ultimate vote. It was put off. and in tbe morning of the 2d of July, they joined the other nine states In voting for it The members of the Pennsylvania delegation, too, who had been absent the day before, came in and turned tbs vote of their state in favor of independence, and a third member of the state of Delaware, who, hearing of the division in the sentiment of his two colleagues, had traveled post to arrive In time, now came in and decided the vote of that state also'for the resolution. Thus 12 states voted for it at the time of its passage, and the delegates of New York, tbs thirteenth state, received Instructions within a few days to add theirs to the general vote; so that there was apt a dissenting voice. "Congress proceeded Immediately to consider the Declaration of Independence which bad been reported by their commute on the 28th of Jane. The several paragraphs of that were debated for three days, vix: the 2d, 2d and 4th of July. In the evening of the fourth they were finally closed, and the instruments approved by an unanimous vote, and sighed by every member, except Mr. Dickinson." The first celebration of our national birthday took place in Philadelphia four days after the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. July 8, 17tG, with all the clamor and rejoicing that today heralds its approach. Amid the hus* tea of the people the king's arms were torn down, the troops paraded, and on the commons the proclamation was read before each of tbe five battalions; Bonfires biased in the evening, can* non were fired, bells were rung, and the populace celebrated generally. The next day General Washington arrived in New York and took charge of the demonstrations there.

Then mix to the consistency of a thin batter with more hot water, adding salt to taste. Heat the griddle quite hot over the gypsy campftre, grease it with a bit of salt pork, and then pour on the corn batter in a thin cake.

Ripon will preach morning and evening; on the first two words in the Lord's Prayer,"Our Father." To these services we give all a cordial invitation to attend. Here is my defination of prayer. Prayer is helplessness casting itself on power; it is misery seeking peace; it is unholiness embracing purity; it is hatred desiring love; Prayer is corruption panting for immortality; it is the eagle soaring heavenward: it is the dove returning home; it is the prisoner pleading for release; it is tbe soul oppressed by the world seeking the shrine of peace in God. "Prayer is the burden of a sigh, ottered or unexpressed. The upward glancing of an eye when none bnt God is near. W. H. Ripon, pastor. 1 1 Ckink' Netef Patriotic services Sunday morning, June 30.

Establishment of a library merely means that the school district will receive its share of the library fund which is made up of the penal fines paid to the county. As soon as a school district votes to establish a library, tbe township board must give to the district its share of books in the township library and of library money on hand.

The time limit for such enrollment is June 27, on or before which date application for enrollment should be made to the township clerk. The advent of the primary election system makes it a duty incumbent on every good citizen to avail himself of the elective franchise at the primary, as well as at the general election, and all who fail to enroll and thus qualify themselves for the discharge of that duty are falling short of their moral obligation as citizens of the commonwealth. A large proportion of country electors were enrolled at the time of the annual spring election, but if you are not among this numoer you should not neglect to enroll before the legal time limit has expired. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Fftt-Carpter Married at St.Jacob's church in Lennox, Wednesday, June 19, at 1:30 p. m.

Hut her claws raked on: "I tell you you just can't be familiar with grooms and hail-fellow-well-met with footmen without demoralizing them—and that's what Prancla does." She Jerked this out viciously, and while I gasped, went op: "You know very well, Mr. Llghtnut, If you play cards and drink and carouse with your men-servants until two or three o'clock In the morning, you can't reasonably look for respect from them." She breathed heavily. "The trouble Is, Francis has no self-respect—no pride!" { "By Jove, If I were you, Miss— V.T— " Dash me If I hadn't forgotten •her name! "If you feel that way, I don't see why the de— H'm! I mean why do you stay on here and—er— sacrifice yourself?" I drawled this m the most devilish sarcastic way! "I'd pack my jolly trunk and get as far away as I could." I added earnestly—coaxlngly: "And stay away, you know!" And I took a deep breath, for 1 expected to see her wilt or go straight up In the air. I knew It was a -tossup for either. Not she! She Just twisted a sour Amtle at me. "Ummh!" she grunted. "Perhaps} you don't fcnow that Francis has suggested that to me several times— frankly and rudely—when I have complained. That may surprise you," "Dare say you've put up with Frances though for Jack's sake!" I let her have it coldly, deliberately. "Brother Jack has been a port of compensation— that's it. eh?" And I shot Iter a foxy wink! That is, I. almost did—pulled up, though, JuBt 0¾ the brink. By Jove, gave me cold marrows for an instant, thinking- £pw; I, might have compromised «ajr«elf. you know.

"It's «11 right, miss," Wilkes reported; "at least, I hope so. Perkins is with him—we've been trying to persuade him to have a bath and lie down. But I don't know—" He shook his head gloomily, then turned to me. "If you will come with me, sir—" Then he added, and it seemed a question: "You must have made a quick run, sir. Seems like only a lew minutes since t,we got Mr, Jack's 'phone message. His voice dropped: "From the station bouse, you know." "Eh—what's that?" I paused with my foot on the first tread of the stairway. "Jack's 'phone message— from the station house?" I repeated blankly. "What are yoa talking about?" Wilkes coughed reproachfully. "Why,- you know, sir, he told about being arrested In front of the Kahoka Apartments. He mentioned that it was about—h'm!" He stole a furtive backward glance at the frump, but she was enjoying herself berating a fat girl she addressed as "Flora." He looked at me eloquently and whispered: "About his—h'm—stealing some black silk pajamas." My monocle dropped, and I almost } did myself. "By Jove!" I gasped feebly. "Yes, sir." Wilkes looked up at the paneled celling and stroked his chin. "He mentioned that they found them—or thought they found them in the bag he had with him." "But he's got them on, and they are his own," I managed to get out. Wilkes' face lightened understanding^. "Oh-h, I see, sir," he said, nodding with his jolly chin hanging; "so that's how you got him off—I was awondering!" He looked at me, his fishy old eyes twinkling admiration. "Very neat, If I may say, sir—making, as It were, a sort of alibi—very neat, indeed! Of course, when they puts 'em on him, they see for themselves they are hls'n, and not any lady's what had been stolen— Oh, I see!" Dash me, If I did! The only thing I saw was that It must have been Jenkins that had telephoned and the message bad been twisted. What he had said, of course, was that Billings had almost been arrested. But the police finding the pajamas In his bag —I did not like that. Could it be that. after all, Billings had found his sister's pajamas in the guest-room and had quietly confiscated them? it looked devilishly, ominously like It! Or perhaps he, himself, had recovered them from Foxy Grandpa, and with more delicacy than I thought him capable of, had kept the whole matter to himself. One thing only was certain: the sleuth hounds of the law, stimulated by the extravagant reward I had offered over the telephone, had run down and recovered her pajamas. It was a relief that they were out.of his hands, anyttow—£ qould get thim again, but he couldn't.', By Jove! Alone fn my room, I stood before the mirror, hands An pockets and rocking on my toes—kind of smiling, you know—and thinking what a daredevil, reckless thing it had been— clever, too, dash it—in getting them away from old Jack, and* right under hla nose. By Jove, I felt a bit proud about It—sort of exultation, don't you know—and I had just got off a wink at myself, when Wilkes appeared again. "Pardon, sir, for disturbing yoo^but Mr. BfHtngs is acting so queer, we are afraid to cross him; and he Just insisted I take his message to you at once." "Message?" I repeated, sobering. "Yes, sir—something about some pajamas—" "Pajamas?" I faltered, and I dropped into a chair. "Ob!" W|lkes looked grave. "Pajamas •8ti'*to be the thing with him tola "How >ou do understand!" she I time, sir—it's the queerest go! That's trrooned onblushlngly, and she leaked! a new one, that is!"

I suggested nervously. "I was just a-comlcg to that, sir. tie atkt roe if 1 kaeir whether you were still on tke place; aad when i said you were, he says to me kinder excited and Impressive ilka: 'Well, you go to him at once—at once—and tell him I'm on the trail ol the mystery of those pajamas, and I'll soon know as much about 'em as he does. Just tell him that—he'll know what i mean." "Oh!" I gaaped shortly. "Yes, sir," Wilkes nodded, "but that ain't quite all. He says: 'Tell Mr. Llghtnut that when I first saw those pajamas in hla rooms—'" Wilkes paused inquiringly. "Did you say something, sir?" I had not—I had only groaned! He went on, repeating as by rote: " 'When I found and took them away, I was curious and amused, but skeptical— flrmly skeptical—of there being any dark mystery about them. But now I know 1 let myself be deceived and I mean to get at the bottom of the whole thing.' " Wilkes seemed to kind of waver and fade before me, and then go out like a candle. Then he came back Into view, and I heard his voice again: " 'And what's more, you tell him 1 say—'" The butler hesitated and seemed smbarraBsed—his heavy jowls reddened a little. He looked beyond me and coughed. "Of course, you know, sir," he said, shifting uneasily, "Mr. Billings ain't exactly himself, so to speak, so you mustn't mind. Fact Is—if I may say so—he's got the most considerable case of jimmies I ever see him with, so—" "Oh, go on!" I breathed miserably. "Yes, sir—h'm!" Wilkes heaved distressfully, then drove doggedly ahead: "Oh, well, sir, what he says was that It was bis duty, he thought, to tell the family the truth about those pa what's-its-name—reaction, you know. So fee had known! He had known when he let me come to Wolhurst, and had waited for the moment when he would have me under his roof and be able utterly to confound me. This, then, explained his mental condition, his relapse to drink again—his madness on the subject of pajamas. It was awful! CHAPTER X X I I . I Speak to Her Father. "So glad to see you here, my boy," the judge was saying. And his little round face beamed at me across the library table. I had encountered him in the hall Just as I had descended to rejoin the girls In the llvtng-room. Forthwith, he elbowed me into the library. "Know from Jack how glad you always are to escape girls," he remarked cheerily as he produced cigars. "Don't blame you at all—In fact, do ydu know it refreshes me to find—" Don't know what dashed thing it refreshed him to find, for I never caught it. For just then through the doorway there floated, from across the hall, a bar of music—the laugh of the dearest girl In the world! I strained for another bar. "Hah!" ejaculated the judge, pausing with questioning uplift of cigar. "The silly cackle of those girls—it disturbs you. Yes, it does—I can see It—you look disturbed." And, dash it, he insisted upon closing the door. "You mustn't let them bother you while you are here," he urged pleas- Jamas, so that they would know that J antly; "you must Just go ahead and do the man they were harboring under their roof wasn't what be seemed to be." His gaze bored higher over my head, his voice tapering off so faintly I could hardly hear. But I heard all right! Oh, yes, I got the full devilish force of it; but i couldn't speak. My dry lips touched wordlessly and I hunched deep into the hollow of the big leather rocker. Wilkes coughed again. I winced— there was evidently more! "Yes, sir," he murmured, as I cut a quick glance upward. "He did say further that If you weren't satisfied, though, and would prefer another trial—" "Eh?" I bounded out of the chair. "What's that? Oh, dash It, yes—I would, by Jove!" "Very good, sir." Wilkes looked relieved, himself. "In that case, he said he was willing to experiment again—that was his word—experiment. He said he wouldn't detain you the thing you want to do.' By Jove, there seemed little opportunity for it! "Thanks awfully," I murmured feebly. The Judge proceeded genially: "Of course we all understand that you just came up to Wolhurst to please Jack." Then his face clouded. "H'm! Sorry to learn that he came home with another—" his eyes rolled through a circle—-"er—la not feeling Just fit. It's too bad, for I wanted some one to take you over the neighborhood—interesting landmarks, you know, reminiscent of Major Andre and Washington Irving." "Charmed, I'm sure," I chirped up. Jolly lie, though, for I wasn't Impressed; didn't know who the other fellow was, but I bad seen Irving In London—Bcores of times. Not a potch on John Drew to my thinking! '" "And now, let's see," said the Judge. "I wonder who we can get to take "Of Course You Know, Sir/ here on his account, but be would have to ask yon to stay anotber day or twb while he made bis observations." It was a devilish cold shoulder, but I bad no choice. Fact was, by Jove, I was so jolly glad for that chance, and for being trusted again by tunings. ' even In this half-hearted way, that I just ground my pride, under my heel—why, dash it. 1 would have ground anything under my' heel for her! I was as happy as a bird, and life was again one grand, sweet what's-lts-name. Aad then I just flopped down upon a divan and lay there panting like a I you!" His fingers drummed together thoughtfully. "Urn, of course, there is Francis—" my heart took a lolly leap —"but Francis Is impossible—quite impossible!" "By Jove, no!" I ejaculated eagerly, and I came up in my chair like a galvanlgad, what>-it#-name. "Just the thing—be delighted, you know." He smiled grimly. "Natural you should say that, bat—" He expectorated with deliberation, glowering at f me as he did It. "No, sir!" Hla head shook with decision. "Wouldn't do— I wouldn't think of trusting yen with Francis,'* he finished shortly.' (TQ SB COWTTNUKDO LAPEER HIT BY BUSINESS BLOCK V I R T U A L L Y DESTROYED AND S E V E R A L FIRMS 3 U F F E R .

The department store occupies a three-story brick structure. The flames rapidly worked their way into the celling and communicated with the adjoining buildings. The telephone ofilce and telegraph office were soon filled with smoke and the operators forced to abandon their instruments. This cut off communication with nearby cities and forced the volunteer fire department to work alone. The postoffice was also tn the affected district and it was closed early. Fire at Ortonville. The greater part of the business Bection of Ortonville was wiped out by fire. The fire started In Sherman Bros.' general store.

''{feytfph Amos would come," the little^on&n fluttered. "That cream o' tomato won't be fit to eat." Glancing uneasily out of the window ahe started, at sight of a curiously familiar, yet unfamilla|, figure coming slowly up the street. Sure that bowed, bent old man could not be Amos! He had never looked like that, even when his rheumatism was at its worst. But the next Instant she had flung open the door and was running down the garden walk. "Oh, what 1s it—what ails you, Amos?" she cried, putting her arms about him to help him up the steps. "Don't be scared, Lucy—I ain't sick," the man said, with a brave attempt at a reassuring smile. But once under the shelter of his own roof, safe from prying or pitying neighborly eyes, Amos Rood broke down ^altogether. Sinking into a chair be dropped his head upon the little table, BO gayly decked In honor of the day with tea-roses and heliotrope from the garden bedB, and Mrs. Rood's Found the Solitude He Craved. cherished "wedding" china, and his big, shrunken frame shook with a man's painful, tearless sobs. His wife silently unclasped his clenched fingers from a letter which bibre the seal of a great corporation, and as she swiftly scanned the few cart lines it contained she wailed aghast:. .. CO Amos, it must be a mistake! The company wouldn't take your pension from 7ou_Just because you, are abie to earn a little something extra, now and then?" "It's the new manager, Lucy," Amos Rood responded dully. "He's trying to cut* expenses, and be «aye< It's no part of( the company's policy to pension able-be4#d men." >.- ; ^ V "Able-bodied!" the little woman eetooed, with a hysterical laugh. "I guess I know what you suffer, Amos, eHen on your best days.

"I'd, like *to know if,5*oiv wa'n'i.t hepj. alMhpS||. years in a damp, underground office and not allowed half the help you'd ought to have had?" "Well, well, Lucy," the man said pacifically. "The company was good to me that time I had typhoid, ten years ago. Didn't I get three months' leave- of absence with full- pay and passeB for us both so we could take a nice trip?" "Three months' leave in twenty-five years!" moaned Mrs. Rood. "And now that new manager's going to take away your pension. Oh, I know you think I'm awful, Amos, but I Just hate that grasping, greedy old company that works its men to death Just the way it does its poor horses, so's to save a little more money!" "It'.hurts, me to hear you talk like that, Lucy," Amos Rood protested loyally. "The company does the best it can—it has troubles of its own." "Well, I won't say another word if you don't want I should, Amos," the little woman promised, brushing the angry tears from her eyes. "I ain't afraid but we'll get along some way. It Just made me mad to think how little the company seemed to appreciate how honest and faithful you've been. Now you come and wash up and eat your birthday dinner before it's all spoiled." But though Amos Rood valiantly attempted to do Justice to the little feast, it was evident to the anxious wife who watched him that the dainty viands that she had prepared with such care were as dust and ashes to his palate. He looked stunned and bewildered by the unexpected blow which had been dealt him, and as he pushed back his chair from the table, he said slowly: "I'd calculated to finish up that Job of Brown's this afternoon, but when I got that letter I sent 'em word not to expect me—I didn't feel equal to tacklin' figures today. But I'll paint them storm-doojs you wanted done, Lucy. It'll be quiet out there In thjp barn, and I—I want to think things over." Mrs. Rood looked after him wistfully. "I guess maybe he would be better byhinrsetfr" she thought humbly. "I wouldn't wonder if my everlastln' gabble bothered him some when he's got things he wants to think over. Well, I'll fly around and straighten up so't will look pleasant to him when he comes In, an' maybe if I was to fix that chicken into a scallop he'd relish it for supper. Hfe didn't eat scarcely a mite o' dinner." But although Amos Rood had found the solitude he craved, there was something terrifying to him In the emptiness of the great barn, and as he resolutely set himself to the task of painting the "storm doors" he had mentioned, he began to wish vaguely that old Dolly were still alive to stamp her iron shod feet and to nicker to him socially from her stall. Then, with a sudden pang, he realized that he was glad that the old horse who had been his and Lucy'r frfiend and companion for so many years, had died last month, for how could he have brought himself to sell her when their little home was broken up? The . brush dropped* from his nerveless hand as he muttered, yes, it would eorhei to that! Lucy said that they would manage some way, but Lucy, with all her cheery common sense and thrift, bad a woman's ignorance -of the grim fact that two and two always make four, and never' by any chance five or six. Perhaps, by selling their little place and Irving on the proceeds they might manage Co* keep together for a few years more, but the end was lnevitabre. SHcme'r or later Lucy would be obliged to go to the well-to-do sister who had never attempted to conceal her conviction that the pretty, energetic girl might have done better than to marry Amos Rood. As for him, there would be nothing left but the shelter of the county poor house. ""• Something~seemed to snap in * the man's brain. Why shouldn't he quietly get out of it all, while there was still something to keep Lucy from entire dependence on a woman like prosperous, self-satisfied Jane Thorn? She would, mourn for him he knew, hut death is easier to bear than some other things. Suddenly lie paused, arrested in his grim preparations for the deed on Which he was resolved. "Amos! Amos!" his wife was calling. Ten, yes, Ave moments more and he would have been forever deaf to,that tender voice, and Lucy would have come and found him—he shuddered with a sick repulsion. He had been •elfish—cowardly—mad—! But Lucy's light feet were running along the garden paths and she was calling again: "Amosi . Oh, Amos* do please hurry!" The man. stumbled blindly to the door. The next Instant he was standing in the warm sunlight he ^ad never thought to feel Again* witff'f Lucy's arm:, about his heck; her happy tears upon his cheek. "Oh, Amos," she was bubbling joy* ously, "the general superintendent himself Is in the house! It's perfectly lovely to hear him swear. B e s s y s the new manager has exceeded his authority altogether, and that the company does know how to appreciate faithful service-such as yours has been!

His little face was covered with sores even to back of his ears. The poor little fellow suffered very much. The sores began as pimples, his little face was disfigured very much. We hardly knew what he looked like. The face looked like raw meat. We tied little bags of cloth over his hands to prevent him from scratching. He was very restless at night, his little face Itched. "We consulted two doctors at Chicago, where we resided at that time. After trying all the medicine of the two doctors without any result, we read of the Cuticura Remedies, and at once bought Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Following the- directions carefully and promptly we saw the result, and after four weeks, the dear child's face WRB as fine and clean as any little baby's face. Every one who saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura Remedies was surprised. He has a head of hair which is a pride for any boy of his age, three years. "WeTan only recommend the Cuticura Remedies to everybody." (Signed) Mrs. H.

The Kerry, Cow. «"" The -Kerry cow ia a light framed cow of varying slae, but generally •mailer than the Ayrshire. She la black in hair. The Dexter, although derived from the same stock, is quite different, being thick and blocky, and in eolor may be either black or red. Both of these cattle are particularly goed "dairy cows, doing well in moderate feeding and giving surprisingly large quantities of milk, 'very rich. Many Kerries give quite as rich milk as is produced by the Jersey. Tbe Kerry doee not fatten kindly until ahe has reached full age, but the Dexter may be fattened younger. Doea Silage Affect the Flavor? Have you noticed anything differ* «sat in the flavor of the milk since you began feeding silage? If tfiere is any change at all the flavor will be a little more pleasant, says 0. B. Reed, head of the dairy department at the Kansas State Agricultural college. But if the silage is allowed to ferment too long and (then fed,Jhe mjlk will hay* a taint much like that noticed when weeds are eaten in the summer. 't i\ Oreund Grain It Beat.

CAVlSpLY, P^b. - ' • MICHIGAN , V' TUBERCULOSIS OPEN-AIR CURE. The great war against the "white plague" hag had . marked results, chiefly through the employment of out-of-door treatment -While it is only comparatively recent that this treatment has become general, It has been advocated for over twenty-five years right hero in Philadelphia, and many persons who suffer from consumption ajid are taking the "home treatment" sleep in tents or inclosed porches, says the Philadelphia Capital. Benjamin Franklin, in bis numerous researches, learned many elemental truths, which be banded down to posterity in his Writings. He declared that disease does not come from pure or cold air, but from draughts and the uneven exposure of the person to icy blasts. It Is bis theory which is in a large measure responsible for the present method of treating pneumonia patients at the Jefferson hospital. The ward on the roof Is an innovation and is largely in the nature of an experiment It* permanency will be decided by the number of cures effected. SOJ far the proportion of recoveries has t>een so great and the fatalities so small that the physicians in charge hesitate to give out the figures, lest they be thought to be exaggerating. This is especially encouraging, because of the unusual fatal course so many cases of pneumonia have taken this winter. Mr. HeHer Could 4Yot T i n i Any Bullet Hole in It. SAYS IT DIED OF APOPLEXY Young men who have completed the courses of study prescribed in the University of Wisconsin's College of Agriculture are in demand at good salaries, according to the statistics of the college, Bays the Chicago Record-Herald. When the university closed in 1911 the demand for agricultural graduates could not be supplied and all the members of the year's class had found places at salaries ranging from $600 to $3,000 a year. Places that would have paid $450,000 in salaries could not be filled because of the lack of qualified men. This showing is an Indication of the change that is coming generally in agricultural methods. Rule-of-thumb, haphazard methods will not do on the farm any more than in the well-managed factory. There must be truly scientific farming, the combination of Bound principles with the results of experience. Evidently the owners of farms see the c ban go at nand and are eager to avail themselves of the knowledge possessed by the Wisconsin graduates. "The law does not permit a man to leave his wife just because she nags him," Justice Marean decides. He meant, of course, the law of this state, says the New York Mail. In Kentucky, Missouri and other states, "ungovernable temper" and "indignities" are a cause not only for separation, but for absolute divorce, and nagging may certainly be carried to the point of indignity; while in Oregon one may obtain a divorce if the partner of ^one's joys, and especially of one's sorrows, "makes life burdensome." And what can be more burdensome than nagging? However, there ought not to be divorce, nor even separation'." for nagging, because no court of justice can ever be sure that the nagging is not justified, or at least provoked. Some women, for instance, are born naggers. Some achieve nagging. And a considerable number of others have nagging thrust upon them by a_ course "of conduct which may be outwardly courteous, but which in its essence is insupportable irritating. 1 The Chinese republic has decided to revise its language and has engaged Prof. Solong Hello, who teaches Japanese and Chinese in the Royal institute at Naples, to provide them a new alphabet Prof. Bolong Hello, if we are to Judge by his name, apparently can get things coming and going, and is, therefore, well fitted for the Job.

Washington.—Only once since he left the office of president has Cot Theodore Roosevelt been in Washington to stay for more than the few minutes which the south and westbound trains stop In the "Union station. In. November, 1910, the colonel came here to look over the specimens of his skill as a hunter and a collector, which are now housed In the National Museum and many of which are already in condition for exhibition to the public. The African hunter, while perhaps he does not feel for personal reasons that he ought to come to the capital for any prolonged stay, keeps himself informed as to the progress of the work on the large and small animals which he collected in Africa when he was the leader of the Smithsonian Institution expedition. There is a huge elephant in the Smithsonian Institution which fell before the faunal naturalist's rifle. This elephant has not yet been prepared for exhibition, but its skin, its bones and its ivory are in perfect condition and one day will form one of the chief zoological attractions of the government institution. About That Big Elephant. When Colonel Roosevelt visited the museum this elephant hide was spread as a sort of a cover over half a dozen tables which had been placed together in the middle of one of the great halls. The bide more than covered the tables nnd the •"overflow" went to the floor and stretched itself scramblingly in all directions. It was the skin of a big bull elephant, to secure which the hunter had undergone a good many hardships, of which heat was one of the worst, and some little personal danger, although the latter point was neglected when the colonel, when on his museum visit, had his word to say about this particular elephant. Mr, Heller, who went into Africa _wHh_the colon® 1- commented on the TfidVof'The' big bnite," saying that it was absolutely perfect, and that the same thing could be said of the bones, which were stowed away elsewhere. "Not a hole In hide or bone," said Mr. Heller, and something like a grin was detected when he said it. Colonel Roosevelt turned to his audience of five and said: "Heller won't let up on me. I toiled and toiled and toiled to get a shot at that elephant and finally succeeded. He dropped dead at the first shot. Heller went up, examined him and then said: Colonel, this elephant died of apoplexy,' I see that he insists on telling the same story today, and all that I have to say about it is that If I made a miss that day this was the most considerate elephant that ever roamed Africa." Birds of Fiery Plumrge. The hall in the National Museum which is given over to birds collected -by the Smithsonian Institution's African expedition allows one to use unafraid all the color adjectives at command. The bird skins are spread out on trays, or were on the day of the colonel's visit to the museum. The Baltimore oriole and the scarlet (anager of America uyeasionally are called fire birds because of the burning brilliancy of their plumage. There are perhaps a hundred birds among those collected by Dr. Edgar A. Mearns, wbd accompanied Roosevelt into Africa, which might bear becomingly the fiery name. Then there are others in' which the blues and the greens and the yellows and the purples and all the other colors, hues, and combinations of both mingle. In Africa, as elsewhere, the best singers are to be found among the birds of aober dress. If the scarlet tan ager could sing like the hermit thrush, the species would become extinct from exceai of vanity. Mr. Roosevelt's ornithologically inclined comrade, Dr. Mearns, sent back shrikes whose plumage shames the livery of the oriole, the tanager, the bobolink and the goldfinch. Clark Reconciled to Houn'. Speaker Champ Clark, prominent Democratic aspirant for the presidential nomination, it la said on probably sufficient authority waa not entirely enraptured with "The Houn' Dawg" song when he first heard that it was likely to be hitched up, so to •peak, with his candidacy for the highest office in the land. It was hinted that Mr. Clark thought that the song waa In a way undignified, but whether it be true or not that he rather resented it at the first, he now has become perforce reconciled to it, for seemingly it has come to stay and moreover nobody apparently has shown an inclination to hold the speaker respon- Blbja for UB entrance ioto the musical field and ^into the presidential campaign. This is the second time that Speaker Clark in a way has been tangled up with the animal kingdom. It waa reported that prior to the congressional elections of 1910, he declared that he would drive a pair o/ Missouri mules down Pennsylvania avenue from the treasury to the capitol in case the Democrats won the election. If the speaker premised to do this be unquestionably made the promise Jocosely, but tfce story was taken seriously and the Missouri representative had hard work trying to put the yarn on its right basis. It kept appearing and reappearing head foremost and finally the speaker gave it up. Could Teach Him to Drive Mules. The messenger who hats been attached to the speaker's room in the capitol for a long time is a colored man named Neill. He held hia. .position through successive speakerships from the day of Samuel J. Randall of Pennsylvania. One day after the congressional elections which returned a Democratic majority to the house of representatives, Neill met in the corridor Representative Burleson of Texas. Mr. Burleson and Mr. Clark were and are close friends, although today the Texan is supporting an opponent of Mr. Clark for the presidential nomination. Neill said: "Good morning, Mr. Burleson. I hear Mr. Champ Clark is going to drive a pair of Missouri muleB down Pennsylvania avenue when he is elected speaker. Is that true, Mr. Burleson?" "Well, Neill," said Mr. Burleson, "Mr. Clark is a man of his word, and if he was going to drive the mules you may be sure that he will." "I don't just like to tell Mr. Clark so myself, Mr. Burleson, but would you mind telling him that if he is going to drive any mules there ain't nobody in Washington can teach him how better than me?" Burleson duly reported the facts in the case to the next speaker of the house. Pick Flaws In 8tatues. In advance of any findings of the fine arts commission which is charged with the work of making Washington artistically worthy, the newspapers and residents of the capital are calling attention to the shortcomings, as they view them, of some of the statues of the great ones as they appear in the public parks. There are as many minds on the matter of worthiness or lack of worthiness as there are monuments. For one who knows that he is not qualified to pass judgment there remains only the course of setting down what others say. At the south front of the treasury building there stands an equestrian statue of William Tecumseh Sherman. The Sherman horse is not attempting, like the horse of General Jackson which stands in Lafayette park, to break the natural law of gravitation, but fault has been found with it nevertheless, and recently men, who are supposed to know all about art as it applies to everything which comes within its scope, have said that the horse is bad. Nevertheless, it looks like a very good horse and there are men who know horses and who sa;,- it is well-nigh perfect. Horse 8eems to Be Headless. There is one curious criticism passed on the Sherman status. It is said that if you stand at a certain place on Fifteenth street and look at the horse it appears to be headless. It is true that Sherman's mount has its head low. The general has given it the bridle and has allowed it to "rest its neck," for that Is what a horse does under certain circumstances. From the Fifteenth street point of view you look at the head straight on, and because it is in line with the body, of course you cannot see it distinctly, Perhaps the criticism would not be worth attention were it not for the fact that it is the one most constantly in evidence. It probably had its origin with one of the guides to the city, who was trying to find something new to say about the statue to the "strangers In our midst" who had paid him 60 cents a head to be enlightened on the show things of the city. In the center of Tbromas circle there is an equestrian statue of General Thomas, "Pap" Thomas, the Rock of Cnickamauga. It is "said that the figure of the general Is not all that it should be, but It might be the worst thing ever perpetrated In sculpture, and yet the monument itself would be a beauty. The horse is a delight to the eye. It has been pronounced the most perfect horse In bronze or marble that this country holds. Freedom 8hrleked Again. Some time ago a statue of Kosciusko was erected in Lafayette square. The fault-finders have had time for a campaign, and those who seem to know something about art maintain that the fault-finders have plenty of* justification for all that they chodfev to say. We have the word of Thomas Campbell that "Freedom shrieked as Kosciusko fell!" Now the humorously inclined aay that freedom shrieked again as Kosciusko rose in bronze. Narrow Escape. An English couple had a narrow escape in the mountains above Fluelen, near Lucerne, Switzerland, recently. They loat their way, and the wife fell 150 feet on to the rocks below. Her head was. severely cut but no bones were broken. Her husband fell into a tree, and waa lowered into safety by peasants who came to the assistance of the pair with ropei. The couple were taken to the village of Hied, where a doctor attended them. Bad State of Mind. ' Peevishness,if indulged in too often, brings on a sort of permanent "grouch." If we allow ourselves' to get irritated and disagreeable over infinitesimal troubled, pretty soon everything that doesn't go juat our way will be regarded aa a particular 81am of fate, and we will get the fixed idea that life ii treating ut very badly ind ROUGH RIDER REACHE8 CONVENTION CITY LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON, -^- MAKES SNAPPY SPEECH. FEELING BETWEEN FACTIONS INTENSIFIED BY HIS COMING.

Theodore Roosevelt's arrival in Chicago to take personal charge of his ffKht for the presidential nomination was fully, as Spectacular as even he could wish. He waa met at the railroad atation by a great crowd of admirer's. He made his way to his automobile through a lane which the police battered out with their clubs and fists, drove a half mile through lineB of frenzied people who greeted '^im with frantic cheers until he reached Use Congress hotel. Here the crush was such as to threaten life and limb. The colonel literally fought his way to a balcony of the hotel, from which be talked to the massed thousands below. Something; of the piercing quality of the famous "rebel yell' characterized the snapping cheers which interrupted Roosevelt's speech from the hotel balcony shortly after his arrival. The feeling that matters had come to some kind of a crisis permeated both factions. , Taft Denies Considering Dark Horse. President Taft sent the following telegram to C. D, Hilles, his secretary, who is now in charge of his personal interests at Chicago: "The report that I am in any way considering the possibility of a compromise candidate is wholly unfounded, and you are authorized emphatically to deny the report. With confidence I abide in the judgment of the convention." The Michigan Headquarters. Michigan has the finest headquarters of any state delegation to the national Republican convention—the sumptuous English room of the Congress hotel, mezzanine floor, bay windows overlooking Michigan boulevard and the lake beyond, with the lake front parkway in the middle distance, Senate Fails to Heed Veto Threat In the face of President Taft'a vow to veto the measure because of its provision abolishing the United States commerce court, the senate passed the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill by an aye and nay vote. The bill now goes to conference, where the senate conferees are expected to put up a stiff fight for increases over the house estimates awarded to the state, treasury and interior departments. Report Says 1,500 Italians Are Dead. The Turkish troops and their Arab allies won a big victory at Horns, according to a news agency correspondent in Tripoli, who says that 1,500 Italians were left dead on the field, while the Turkish casualties were only 50 killed and 1.50 wounded. The battle lasted seven hours, when the Italians, after being routed, left several cannon and quantities of rifles and ammunition, as well aa stores, in the hands of the victorious Turks.

I How This Apartment 8hould Be Decorated and Furnished — Down Stairs.Front Room or Dutch Hall the Best Choice. Today almost every one has a living room, and any house is incomplete without one. Some people are loth to let go of the old-fashlpned and hopelessly out-of-date parlor, with its set of plush furniture, its what-not and its lace curtains. Still, every one would like to be up to date, if possible; and in this article It will be the endeavor to show how a parlor can be turned into a living room and how a living room Bhould be furnished. The room to chooBe for the purpose would, of course, depend on the convenience of the family; but in the average house the downstairs front room or the Dutch hall would be the best choice. Should this be impractical, either the front or back room on the second floor could be made to answer. Except In the case of the Dutch hall, where the woodwork is stained to blend well with the surroundings, or when, in individual cases, It is conaidered best to leave it the way it is, It is usually advisable to change the color of the woodwork to white or cream. Even in the hall this has been worked out most successfully by painting all the wood white with the exception of the staircase, where the tread of the stairs and the handrail are of mahogany. As to the wallpaper, it is best to NOVEL SILK BATHING SlHT It Is a Blus and White Chock and the Material Is Non-Absorbent and Very Dressy.

It is very rarely successful, and unless one la very partial to It, it is better not to attempt it when there is such a wide choice of other beautiful colors, If one should feel Impelled to buy a figured paper, choose an inconspicuous one, as the shocks one receives on first beholding a room papered with a pattern selected from a stingy little sample shown at the paperhanger's are many and varied. These figured papers, chosen from samples, are so often a terrible disappointment, it is really better not to indulge. At the very lowest, the cost of having a good-sized room papered, not counting the ceiling, would be $3 or $4. t t 8hould Be Made From One's Own Hair and Kept Untangled and Clean. SUMMER HOUSE FOR POULTRY Coop Shown In the Illustration Will Provide Comfortable Place for Hens in Hot Weather. Good poultry quarters-are needed, and for warm weather the house shown In the accompanying picture will answer the purpose exceedingly well It la built eight feet wide. 12 feet long, seven feet high in front and 4½ feet at the rear. It should have a light framework, consisting of 2x4's, tor the sills and caps, and siding of inch stuff, preferably matched, Summer House for Hens. nailed on perpendicular as Indicated, writes Fred O. Sibley in the Farm and Home. The front, which Is to face toward the south, has a good-sized window, and at each corner are two openings, 12x16 inches, for the hens to pass. In the end opposite the door there is a wooden shutter about two feet square for air and ventilation, and this, as well as the window, should have strong, fine meshed wire nailed on the outside. The roosts are located in the rear, up under the roof, with a platform below to catch the droppings, 3½ feet wide, extending the whole length of the house. Beneath this is another platform, three feet wide, for the nests. For hens on the range such a house Is Just the thing, and needs no floor if the location is well drained and dry. It will shelter from 50 to 60 fowls comfortably. The interior ought to be kept well whitewashed, and If the house is set In the shade of a large tree it will be all the more pleasant for the hens to go into on a hot day. The cost of building this kind of summer "cottage" will be from $12 to $15. It pays to use good lumber, and two or three good coats of paint should be applied. BROODER FOR LITTLE CHICKS Illustration and Directions Given for Constructing Comfortable Place for Youngsters. This flreless brooder will accommodate 25 to 50 chicks, according to the weather. If the hover is removed it makes an excellent brood coop for hen and chldffe. Make the bottom of brooder 2 feet 8 inches $7 1 foot 10 inches of boards, nailed on 2 by 2-lnch scantlings. For the upper part use 2 by 2-inch posts for the uprights, those in front 17 inches long, and the rear 11 inches. Make the coop 2 feet 10 inched long, 2 feet wide, 18 inches hlgh^ln front and 12 inches at the back, writes Arthur 8. Wenger of Dayton, Vs., In the Missouri Valley Farmer. This will allow the coop to set down over the floor, the posts resting upon the floor boards. Make two openings in front, one 8 by 8 Inches, the other 12 by 20. For the smaller opening make a sliding door, and cover the other with fine mesh wire netting. Make a frame and cover with muslin to slide over this netting during cold or stormy weather. For the roof take two pieces of %-lnch board 2 inches wide and 3 feet long, and three pieces of the same dimension 2 feet 2 Inches long. Notch the long pieces at end and center to 1 inch wide, so the crosspleces can be nailed In—to make a flat frame. Cover thiB frame with three-ply roofing stretched tight and nailed around edge and through center. Hinge the cover to back of coop and put a small hook in front to hold it shut.

That light putty color which was so much In fashion in France last winter and which one feared would become fashionable here is fortunately missing. All the Russian tana are used In pumps, In Oxfords, and in twoeyelet ties. Buckles still take precedence over ribbons, except in tbe Oxfords and on pumps. True, a wide number of women prefer the more or less huge buckle on their pumps, but you will notice thai the well-dressed woman who la smart* ly turned out in every detail will wear the plain pump, with its flat bow of corded ribbon, such as die men wear, no matter what Its beet.

Fowls should nave empty crops in the morning and the crop should never be quite full until It is time to go to roost For the first feed grain scattered in the litter in the morning la preferred, the sooner the better. This Induces them to exercise- In the middle of the day a warm, moistened mash ahould bo given, about what they will oat And at night before they go to roost a liberal feed of grain should be scattered in the ttt* ter. Fowls ahould be kept busy. BEDBUGS IN CHICKEN HOUSE Roots and Nests Should Be Removed From Building snd Whitewash Spray Thoroughly Applied. Many poultry houses are infested with bed bugs and It is not an easy matter to dislodge them. Some people, say that turning the sheep into tlie poultry houses will Induce the bugs to attack the sheep where they will be lost In the wool, but this is a poor remedy. Remove all the roosts and nests from the house and spray with boiling hot whitewash to which has been added a pint of turpentine to a pailful. Another good remedy is to burn the Interior of the house with tarollne mixture which can be bought at any drug store. Another effective remedy Is half a pint each of turpentine, ammonia and kerosene to which add about four ounces of gum camphor. If more is needed double the quantity. Apply with a brush. The nests should be burned out over a blazing Are and the roosts should also be held over the fire and all should be thoroughly whitewashed and painted before putting them back. Insect Powder for Fowls. Here is a receipt for an Insect powder and it can be made a great deal cheaper than it can be bought. Take one pint of crude carbolic acid and three pints of gasoline. Mix in an earthen crock or granite ware dish. Sprinkle in plaster of Paris and thoroughly stir so that every particle of it will be wet. Use enough plaster of Paris to absorb all the liquid. Spread out on a paper for extra gasoline to evaporate, then run through a sieve and the powder la ready for use. Oyster sMteils for Fowsle. The feeding of oyster shells is claimed to supply the birds with grit, but experiments show that under circumstances in any other manner oyster shells may be utilised by the hens to- supply sheila for the aggs.

STATE NEWS NOTHING TO DO BUT WA i Lapeer. — What Is considered the most disastrous fire, from a financial standpoint, that ever occurred in this city, broke out In the rear of the second story of the Henderson department store in the heart of the business district. It had gained great headway when discovered, and by the time the fire department arrived the whole roof was in flames. A strong west wind carried the flames to the buildings on the east, and for a time it looked as though that portion of the block would go, which Includes the First National bank, but intelligent work by the volunteer firemen held the fire in the two buildings where it bad gained tbe most headway. It went west toward the post office until stopped by a solid brick wall. The Michigan State Telephone exchange, situated in the rear of the poBt office building on tbe second floor, was filled with volumes of black smoke and the valiant hello girls kept to their posts until nearly overcome.

Grand Rapids.—Contrary to the expectations of nearly all the delegates the one hundred and sixth general synod meeting of the Reformed church In America suddenly closed its final* session, deciding to postpone the minor routine business until next year. The most important business transacted was the report of domestic missions by Rev. Beth Venderwerf of Pellat, La. It was decided to set $200,000 as a standard of gifts for the ensuing year, and the fourth Sunday In the month of February waB designated as domestic mission day. The following were appointed on the board of domestic missions: Rev. James M. Farrar, Rev. Julius W. Geyer, Rev. J. S. Gardner, Rev. H. J. Pietenpol, Hev. J. R. Broek, Rev. C. J. Case and Messrs. J.

Beard, first assistant cashier of the Commercial bank, who dropped dead In the lobby of the New Burdlck hotel at Kalamazoo. Mr Beard was a delegate to the Michigan Bankers' association convention. HIB death is the Becond to occur among the employes of the Commercial bank within a weok. It was only a week ago that Charles N. Runnels, director and cashier, passed away from a stroke of apoplexy. Both he and Mr Beard were considered among the oldest employes In the bank and were prominent in Port Huron In many ways.

Fist CoDserTation In the making of the fish and game laws every true sportsman is much interested. There are true sportsmen and those who are in no respect any kind of sportsmen^ A trm> sport ia not one who would enjoy seeing our lakes and streams robbed of fish. Neither dons he like to see the bluegills caught by the hundreds at this time of the v e a r » thus destroying four-fifths of Tak«^HaTrs"Famiiy"'pfls for con- * n e seasons spawn. IH there a more enomical or better way to stock, our lakes with fish than to prohibit all fishing for at least 30 days or more during the spawning season? Perch should be,' protected in. February just as much as the bhie^ills at the pres ent time. There is a recent amendment to the effect that white, silver and strawberry bass may be caught at any time of the year. This amendment takes effect ninety days after the adjournment of the special session. stipation. AHBES80S. Frank Hanes and family and Mr. and Mrs. Orlo Hanes visited On« Hanes of Marion Sunday.

In this country poultfy includes chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks, guinea fowls, pigeons and occasionally pea fowls, pheasants, quail and swans—chickens, of course, being the most important. Something like a quarter of a billion chickens and other poultry are consumed in the*United Ptates every year. The consumption of eggs Is about eighteen dozen per capita. The last census gave the value of chickens raised on American farms in 1899 as $136,891,877—of eggs as $144,286,158. Today the American people consume about half a billion dollars' worth of poultry and eggs per annum. Exports are increasing and one may enter on the raising of poultry and eggs with little fear of not realising good prices on all produce. Probably 90 per cent, of the farms in the United States raise poultry as a side line; feeding is more economical where general farming is pursued. Still there are manifest advantages in specializing—greater attention, knowledge and skill achieve better results. Poultry raising makes no great demands on strength, and any person of intelligence may hope to make a success of it. But some have made the mistake of supposing that the business can be taken up on a considerable scale without any experience. Hens lay all the way from none to 250 eggs a year, and It takes fome experience to tell with what kind of hens and under what conditions, tbe upper limit can be reached. Probably the best course for the Intending poultry raiser would be tc work for a year or more on one ol the large chicken ranches in order to Searn the important points of breeds, feeding, fattening, housing, brooding, incubating, etc. The raising.of broilers, roasters and capons for the market may be a paying occupation on an egg farm, if one secures the right kind of stock and gives the work the proper attention and management. No kind of poultry Is more profitable than turkeys. OO TO D A N C E R ' S E a n d gr«3t y o u r - 4th of July Suit out of that new assortment Pure wool gray cheviots, tan and blue i serges , $10.

Since ducklings slop water around considerably when they drink, and since they should be kept dry until after their feathers have formed, the drinking fountain illustrated herewith will be found particularly useful, says the American Agriculturist. A square of quarter-inch mesh galvanized wire cloth, say 18 Inches to the side, is tacked to a wooden frame and placed Fountain for Ducklings. oyer a b*d of gravel so the water may easily drain away. If the soil Is not gravelly, a hole should be dug about two feet deep and filled with small stones. The drinking fountain of any convenient shape should be anchored in the center of the wire screen. For little ducks the weight of a fountain holding one gallon or more will be more than sufficient to prevent toppling over. It hi better not to keep ducks and chicks together. The young chicks should be losfr ed over carefully for lice. The farmer above everyone ia the party to succeed with poultry. Have charcoal, sand and water always on hand, and feed small grain. Clean and disinfect the brooders At least onoe a week, and better every day. Potato peelings fed raw in" not too large quantities are good for the laying hens. Now that the chicks are hatched the main point is to see that they are are kept growing. Collect eggs every day shortly before noon, or preferably twice dally, at noon and at dusk. A chick, like a baby, will get good at bad habits according to tbe way It is started in this world. To keep chicks growing and thriving they must be fed well sad of tan, aad their crops kept clean.

Connor G Cannot Use Friar; Money To Fay Teachers Of utmost importance to many- -- city, village and rural districts in Michigan is the opinion just given by Attorney General Franz 0. Euhn in regard to the use of the primary money which will be apportioned in July of this year. No part ofjft can be used to pay teachers fot services rendered before the money is received by the district treasurer. If there is no primary money on hand, tbe districts must pay the teachers from the general fund and this is not to be replaced by primary money, when the latter is received.. The general school law provides that when the primary fund is exhausted, the teachers are to be paid out of the general fund. If there not sufficient funds on hand, the school board may vote a tax sufficient and then borrow money on the amount voted, no action of the people being necessary. Special provision for the year 1912 is made in compiler's section 23 of the school laws as follows: "Provided, that, if any deficiency shall be caused in the teachers' wages fund in any school district by the changing of the date of the ap portionment of the primary school interest fund by the superintendent of public instruction, the school board or board of education ot said district shall have authority, first to borrow on the warrant of-the district for tbe sum of such deficiency or, second, to borrow and issue bonds of the school dis* trict for the sum of such deficiency for a period not to exceed five, years." , *• ' This deficiency or the bonds must be paid out of the general fund and not from the primary money.

But do you know"—here he plucked at my shirt front, took a pinch, aa It were, just as he had seen the professor do— "I cannot find any transmigration. The materialization appears to be wholly optical." "Never mind," I said anxiously, for I knew be was talking about the rubles; "we don't care." I smiled brightly. "Let's go down and see the car—nice car!" And I tried to get hold of his fat side, but missed it. "Car?" Billings looked puzzled. Then his face broke lato a smile. "Carpe diem—eh, am I not right? True, true! Whither you say." He looked about on a table. "Um—my notes, now," he muttered; and he caught up a small book and a pencil. The professor's man protested: "Professor Doozenberry don't like—" "Oh, dash it, let him have them!" i exclaimed, for Billings was already chuckling happily and writing In the little blank book. "Come on," I pleaded, catching a fold of the pajamas. "Wouldn't you like to come get some clothes on?" He drew back in alarm. "No, no— not yet—not until 1 complete ray notee," was hla crazy answer. "You know: cubiata causa, tollltur effectus!" And he looked as though he thought this would finish me. "But your friend," he. exclaimed suddenly, as he allowed me to throw a blanket about his shoulders and we moved out of the door, "the gentleman I met last night—Billings—is not that the name?" I looked at him miserably as we entered the car to go down. "Obr~I-8#yr-;BlttiB*Si oM^-ehapr" ~t protested earnestly, "don't you know me?" ^1 pointed to the little panel of mirror' In the cage. "Don't you know you are Billings? Can't you see?" His fat head pecked at the glass for an Instant. Then he looked at me with eager, batting eyes. He chuckled hoarsely, gurgilngly, and out came the note-book and pencil from his sleeve. "Better and better," he muttered. "Now, if we could only go to him!" about her beauty! Beauty! Poor old Jack! If I had been sad about him before, It was a devilish sight worse now— Worse? Why, dash It, she kissed him! And to see him standing there, kind of batting and rolling his eyes and looking like a girl does when she's trying a strange piece of candy out of the box—oh, it just broke me all up! No wonder he was crazy! Why, dash it, he would have to be crazy! He was muttering to hlmseli. "Remarkable!" I heard. "Singularly sensate and exhilarating! Now, 1 never would have thought—um!" And then he very deliberately took her head between his hands and— kissed her. Then he looked upward thoughtfully and did it again—like a chicken drinks water—you know! And then while we—that is, Jenkins and I—were trying to urge him on, out came the note-book again and he scribbled rapidly, muttering audibly: "Labial osculation—extraordinary stimulation—sensatory ganglia—mucous membrane—" "Police!" I whispered brutally In the frump's ear. "Better let's get him away!" And. by Jove, that woke her out of her trance! In two minutes she had cajoled him to the car and we had him inside on the cushions. We bunched blankets and rugs about him to hide the pajamas. "Jacky, dear," gushed the Chinese freak, "wouldn't you like for me to sit by you and hold your poor hand?" It looked as If he would. The frump turned to me. "Can you drive the car, Mr. Ughtnut?" Could I? Well, I would show her! Especially aa Frances had changed to the front aa she saw us bringing out Billings. l!Take.ihe _traia—getJiUlingjllhlngs from the club," I called to Jenkins.

"Do you mean It?" And for the briefest instant the hands were three; but her scream brought me back to earth just In time to save the lives of a man and a boy. Devilish ungrateful, too, for I could see the man, three blocks behind, and still shaking his fist. The way with these pedestrians! At Fifty-ninth street we caromed with a hansom trotting too leisurely across the plaza, and I listened for nearly a block to the remarks of a bicycle cop before he dropped behind. What dashed me not a little was B1U ings' indifference to .the record I was making for his car—didn't seem to care a jolly hang. The frump was still hanging on him in a way to make you sick, and cooing and going on Tn a nervous, half-hysterical way I never would have thought her able to chirp up to. And Billings was holding her hand! "Hello!" I called to him, just after we clipped Yonkers. He looked up at me, smiling and nodding. "Feel all right now, old man?" I inquired cheerily. Bltllngs Took^cT at me hard, ahd then, dash It, he winked! And I began to wonder, by Jove, if it waa Just plain drunk. CHAPTER XX. My Darling Is Slandered. Seemed to be only about a minute more and we were clipping through the curves of the Wolhurst park— Frances pointed the way—and had slowed down under the porte-cochere. The frump whispered to the man who opened the door. "As quietly as possible, Wilkes," she said, "and without his father seeing him." "The judge is away, miss," said the man. "He drove down to the village with Senator Soakem, who had to catch a train back to Albany; but I'm looking for him every—" "Be quick, then," Jerked the frump. "You know what to do." "I guess I do, miss," answered the butler gloomily. "I've had to do it often enough—Perkins and me. A good cold souse—that's the thing— and then bed. I know!" Billings waved his hand to the frump as he mounted the stairway Inside. And then, dash it, he kissed his fingers. The frump kind of glared down the deserted vista of the fine old hall and shrugged her shoulders. "Everybody loafing, as usual," she muttered sourly, and she hurled her coat at the carven back of a great cathedral chair—and missed It. It waa clear that her type scorned conventionalities and knew how to make themselves thoroughly at home. "I hope you'll be made comfortable here, Mr. Llghtnut," she Bald, peeling a glove with a jerk, "but I have my doubts." And she gave a kind of hollow laugh. "Awfully tiresome, these country placeB," I said sympathetically. 1 screwed my glass at a couple of footmen who came into view at the far end of the hall, and who were whispering and chuckling about something. "Things seem to he run a bit loose, don't you know—that's a fact Don't mind for myaelf, but fancy a girl might find It rather trying visitlng bare." By Jove, how ahe opened her eyes at me—surprised, I knew, at finding me such a devilish keen obeerver. My sympathy touched her, too, for her eyetalls shone moist of a sudden and I iaw her Up tremble aa aha stared. Then she swallowed hard and slapped her gloves sharply acroaa her palm. MIt'a Francis that's to blame for that sort of thing," aha rasped, nodding down the hall. "Frances?" I ejaculated stn protest. "Oh. hare, I aay, now—" "You don't know Francis, Mr. Lightnut!" Her jaw grounded with a snap, and what a look abe gave ma! "Walt till you do—you juat wait!" And eyes and hands lifted to tha celling. I coughed again. The'cat! Andthis waa my darling's frWnd!

A kltehen should be planned by or for the woman who uses it. I am epeaking now of the housewife who does a large part of her own work. No two women would want the furnishings placed in exactly the same way. If could cannot build a new kJtchen and have it Just as you want it, you can at least study the possibilities of the one you have and make some changes that will better suit your convenience. The drawing here shown Is of. a kitchen which was planned by a woman, lived in through imagination for a number of months before It was really built, and has now stood the, test tor six years without undergoing any change* in itself or losing favor with iis mistress.

In washing dishes, the work all pvoceeds naturally from right to left. The eoiled dishes are neatly packed, on the smaller shelf in the earner. Two dish pans are placed in the sink,-^wfirfch Afford a hot and cold soft water and cold hard water,—the one at tl\e right for washing and the one at the left for rinsing; a draining basket stands at the left on the edge of the long shelf which slants slightly toward the sink. The dishes are wiped, piled on the long shelf and then put away,—the china In the large or corner cupboard In the pantry, and the tinware and kettles in the cupboard underneath the long shelf. A small cupboard IsToulJt on the wall between the pantry and iceroom. This is just above the work table, the top being even with the top of the doors on either side. It has shelves narrow enough to allow of two rows ot brass hooks on the Inside of each door, on which are hung knives, ; spoons, etc. In this cupboard are kept ! spices In small glass cans, sugars in " larger glass cans, tea, coffee, cocoa, postura, breakfast foods, bread crumbs, measuring cups, tea and coffee pots, a box of cards on which are written recipes in common use, and which can be taken out and hung in line with the eyes when needed. At the bottom of the cupboard is a deep drawer {Plowing Under a Green Crop ( on Sandy Soils B y C H. SPURWAY. AM*.

This fact makes the problem of building up and maintaining the fertility of this kind of soil important to most Michigan farntttrtv Some of these soils are lackins in fertility- in their virgin state, and some* have been run down by poor with two compartments for tea an€ hand towels. In the lower part o! the table are receptahles for flours and the table drawer affords space for small utensils which cannot be hung up. On the inside of one door of the tin cupboard referred to is a rack for kettle covers. On the side of the stair steps at the right of the range is hung the soap8tone griddle, a piece of asbestos between it and the wood. Above the smaller shelf, flush with the face of the wall is a small cupboard, the bottom of which Is cemented. In this are kept the flat'irons, which can be put away while still hot, the stove shovel and corn popper. The room is well lighted with the two large windows on ^the north, a large glass in the door of the ice room, and the window at the east in the pantry, which windows give light frpm the left and from the back of the worker.

There are hooks on the underslde of the shelves of the small cor^ ner cupboard In the pantry for the best tea and sherbert cups. This cupboard has glass doors. The shelves in both cupboards have a narrow cleat about an inch from the back, making a safe place to stand platters, fancy plates, etc. The lower part of the large cupboard is used for storing dry groceries, bread and cookies. The wood box at the back of the stair steps is filled from the platform near the outside basement door, and the wood is taken from it by lifting the second step which is hinged. The shelves in the iceroom are used for the many unclassified articles, and a row of hooks opposite the ice box receive brooms, brushes, etc. While everything in the kitchen and pantry are convenient for immediate use, when not needed they shut in away from the dust. There is no door between the kitchen and pantry nor bet w e e n the kitchen and passageway leading to the basement. The plumbing is cased up Just back of the range, so as to be readily accessible, A detailed description of the above kitchen is given, because one concrete example of a "tested-out" convenient kitchen will be worth more to you In making your own plans, than many theoretical suppositions that may look good on paper. soil puts it in a condition to hold more water. The great absorptive power of organic matter for water causes the water to be taken into the particles and held in the soil. The soil water Is also held closer to the Burface by having a^supply of organic matter in the upper soil layers, and in this position the plant can get a better supply. The leachings, washing, and blowing of sandy soils are prevented to a considerable extent by plowing under a green' crop. These are a few important benefits to the physical condition of sandy soils. One mistake which the farmer is apt to make in plowing under a green crop is to let the crop grow too late in the which will be needed for the succeed' ing°&rbif at a critical period, and often the growth is too much to be plowed under at one time and at that.season. TBe writer has seen fields which have been spoiled for the season in this way, although the danger la greater on heavy than on light soils. It is better to plow under small amounts and do it often, especially when done in the spring and when the season la ^ upon the apt to be dry. , - >, - - ' A P JMJtoV'' ttbe effects prodncefl on sandy soils one thtfr tfodace* the mosttfcooaV .IT i>y. ptawltfr wider * green crop are we plow undexa,c*ofc qf,clover^ofcitwo^ /usually beneficial whetf done under the right conditions.

BIG FORTUNE WELL HANDLED Millions Left by the La.t« Rpstcll 8a«e Are Being Expended fof the Welfare of Humanity. While tbe ^ate liuasell ^age was in the flesh ifte traa ou« of th# nigst Pundent, shrewd and persistent' moaey- RTubbersJa qptham.The astut« flnanr cier never plunged nor risked any money in wild-cat echemea; He waa a '>ure-4hot" operator In WalJ atre^i, and wheu he died he left in the hands of his .lone widow a fortune of something like $75,000,000. Since becoming possessed of this enormous fortune she has worked as persistently and asblduouosly In scattering the money as her husband did in gathering it. The scriptures tell us that the miser is the man that "heaps up riches and cannot tell who shall gather them." RusseM Sage kn«w better, and the good lady upon whose shoulders was imposed the burden of this enormous sum of money has worked hard in lightening the burden. Her philanthropies have been productive of as much wisdom as marked her husband's operations iu the market. She is reported to be failing in health, and her task is only begun. Should she be taken from the world thousands will regret her departure, and it Is very earnestly to be hoped that further care of the property will fall Into good bands. Less and Less.

After the first few doses I showed a markes improvement and after taking twS/ bottles I was entirely cured. I have been perfectly well for years an4 cannot praise Dr. Miles' Nervine too highly," If you are troubled with lose of appetite, poor digestion, weakness, inability to sleep; if you are in a general run down condition and unable to bear your part of the daily grind of life, you need something to strengthen your nerves. You may not realize what is the matter with you, but that is no reason why you should delay treatment. D r .

That is the maxim of the man with a motive to hinge his "mistake" upon, however unfairly some of the old friends of this truism may be treating It An ancient wise man phrased the same principle another way: "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he." He who moves from the standpoint of stern conviction may make mistakes. but..he is a much safer man to follow than the one who trains his wireless to catch the currents of 'Popular thought You can buy an almanac now for a penny or lesa, and a tradesman will send you one with his compliments for nothing, but the first printed specimen published at Nuremberg, in 1476, wr.c thought such a wonderful thing that it WSB sold at ten golden crowns a copy—more than its weight in gold. The first English printed almanac was the "ShepheardB' Kalendar," translated from the French, and printed by Richard Pynson In 1497, and the first popular almanac of the "Old Moore" type was the "Pronoa- 1-ya.ryrm nf MayRter John T h y ^ u l t , medycyner and astronomer of the Emperyall Majestic of the yeare of our Lorde MCCCCCXXXIJ."

That some of the men who were rescued from, the Titanic were less heroic than those who went down with the ship is a moderate way of putting an unpleasant truth. Mrs. Hfppach of Chicago, one of the women survivors, said that *he boat in which she and her daughter was saved contained 31 women and two men, one of the latter being a Spaniard who carried a poodle dog in his arms. The women, who were rowing, asked him to take an oar and help, but ne said he couldn't as he had to mind his dog. U '• *.

Congress May Sanction the Parole of Federal Life Prisoners—Superintendent of House Press Gallery Proves Himself a Veteran. By UEORQE CLINTON. Washington.—Representative Gardner' of the Sixth district of Maasa« chuaetts acted as a Bhowman before an audience in the bureau of the coaBt and geodetic survey the other day. He presented a series of moving pictures, one of which showed a French fishing schooner In the North Sea dragging up flBh by means of what are called otter trawls. There is a movement to give legislative force to an international agreement which will prevent the use of trawls of this kind by fishermen. Tho trawls go down deep, the object being to catch big flBh, but in their operation it is said they kill thousands of small fish and unless their use be prohibited, it Is possible, even probable, It is eald, that the world before many years would be confronted with a famine in sea food. It is Bald that if this should come the problem of feeding the world would become one absolutely unsolvable. The house of representatives has passed a bill, which also has been favorably reported »y a senate committee, to allow the paroling of United States prisoners, who are serving life sentences, at the expiration of the fifteenth year of their imprisonment. Recently there has been a movement In many of the states to extend the parole laws to men serving life sentences and as has been marked in a number of instances recently, the government seems to be inclined to follow examples set by the individual states. As things are at present, a man who is sentenced by a federal court to life imprisonment has only two chances of having his liberty restored, one by bringing forward incontro. v eftlble vp r.o of th.a t he, -was- tef.t o.e e, ni-l o^a"nUxin,he^a«a^, "^^S«lXab^awim~r^:—r^S^e1n1a«to•r „—« A*u,g,r*r*C*a* and was sentenced under a m stake, and the other by the pardon of the president. Story About Charles H. Mann, Not long ago In one of these dispatches there was a short sketch of Col. Charles H. Mann, superintendent of the house press gallery. As was said then, Mr. Mann has been looking after the interests of Washington correspondents for so many years that he has virtually forgotten when his service began. The other day Louis Brownlow of Tennessee, a Washington correspondent, made a discovery* Mr. Brownlow had been going through the files of old newspapers in the library of congress. H© walked over to the. press gallery and said that In a copy of the Harrisburg Keystone of 1839 he had found mention of the fact that Charles H. Mann had Just been appointed postmaster in the town of Doylestown, Pa. The superintendent of the press gallery overheard what Brownlow said and Instantly speaking up said: "What did you say waa the name of the town in which my namesake was appointed postmaster?" "Dolyestown, Pa.," said Brownlow. "Now, I am going to prote to you that I am the man mentioned in that report," said Mr. Mann. The corresppndents know that Mr. Mann is a veteran, but they were all fairly sure that he never had been appointed postmaster In any place in the year 1839. Made Himself Out Ninety-Four. Mr. Mann went over to his office and in a few minutes returned with a commission made out to Charles K. Monn as postmaster at Doylestown, Pa., in the year 1839. It -was signed by Ames Kendall, secretary of the treasury. Mr. Mann showed the commission triumphantly. The correspondents took out their pencils and worked out a problem, the result of which showed that if their gallery superintendent, Charles H. Mann, had been appointed postmaster at Doylestown, Pa., in 1839, when he must have been at least twenty-one years old in order to be commissioned, be today had reached the age of ninety-four. Then it was that ••Charlie" Mann explained that his namesake who had been postmaster under the Jackson administration was his father and that be had kept the commission as a fanv ily heirloom. Titanic Memorial Progresses, Yhe movement started in Wash* ingtOn to raise money for a memorial to those who perished fh the Titanic disaster with special intention to honor the heroic manhood shown on that occasion is progressing rapidly. The plan of the "Women's Titanic Memorial," aa the organisation is called, bai received a peculiarly warm welcome i s the capital. One of the'reason* of this M that to no other single American community1 was the horror of the disaster brought more closely home. MtJ Archibald W Butt, aid to President Taft, was unquestionably the beat known and perhaps the most popular figure in all social •vents here, but the manner of bit death and the tribute which was paid by surviving women to his labors on their behalf in the last hour on board the Tltanio have proved that he had every Quality of a soldier, a man and a hero. The late Frank D. Millet held a place in the art circles of Washington which hardly can be filled. It is believed that thetrHmts paid by Senator Lodge to Mr. Millet at a recent memorial service will remain aa his moat lasting "»rlU«n monument." Women's Tribute to Manhood. The**memorial,, such/ a» tb^ women promoters propose, will add to the capital a-teature of art of&klnd of which Washington possesses few. There are monumentB and statues here by hundreds, but oaly a few of them exploit any phase of human life except military glory. The present endeavor has for Its object something which will commemorate "the bravery and 84 ^-sacrifice of men who far at eea on a starlit night stepped aside to die tbr* women might live," It also will commemorate the devotion of one woman who preferred to Btay with her husband to Bhare death with him, and of another woman who stepped aside and gave a seat in the lifeboat to a woman who had children awaiting her at home. The plan for the memorial was conceived by women and Is being carried forward by women. Mrs. John Hay, widow of the former great secretary of state, is president of the association and Mrs. John Hayes Hammond, wife of the famous mining engineer, is its secretary, Mrs. Helen H. Taft, wife of the president of the United States, started the memorial fund by giving the first dollar. The wife of the vice-president of the United States, Mrs. Sherman, has pledged herself to obtain a contribution of one dollar from each of one thousand women. Rucker's Novel Dinner. A dinner which was in a sense a commemorative service was given here on the night of Memorial day by Representative A. W. Rucker of Colorado, who in the days of his youth was a Boldier in the army of the Confederacy. Mr. Rucker was the hqst tc 12 men in official position in the United StateB, most of them members of one or the other branch of congress, who wore the gray in the years from '61 to 'C5. Never before this has anything oi the kind been attempted in Washington. It Is regarded here as a most graceful way of commemorating the northern Mumorlal day by veterans of the south. The guests were Chief Justice Edward D. White of the United States Supreme court, Louisiana; Associate Justice Horace. H. Lurton, Tenuessee; Senator John H INCIDENTS BEFORE THE BIG REPUBLICAN OONTfcST IN TH£ COLISEUM AT CHICAGO Chicago, June 10*—Th«» -chief duty of tbfe>. Chicago potei clerk Ju»t now Is to pqlnt out. the political celebrities. It has been necessary to describe big men of the convention for persons seeking them BO many times that John Burk, head clerk of the Annex, can give finest identifying details of attire and build of a statesman in a moment. A great part of the population of the hotel consists of newspaper, magazine, and free lance photographers. Twelve snapBhotters were in an arc about Senator J. M. Dixon of Montana, Colonel Roosevelt's manager, when he consented to be photographed on his arrival. Before the senotor reached the hotel on Wednesday two men had been led out on Michigan avenue by the camera squad In the belief that each of the accommodating strangers was the Montanan. One photographer would be "tipped off" that "the tall, white haired man in the Panama is Senator Dixon." . The stranger at once would be Invited out in the street for different poses In the sun. Of the two cases of mistaken Identity one was A. B. Butler of Washington, a Taft camp aid. It is Baid the other was a Boston linen salesman. He did not deny he was Senator Dixon, and posed graciously with and without his hat and facing in different advantageous angles. A New One From Texas. Col. Cecil Lyon of the Texas delegation, and an irrespressible supporter' of Roosevelt, had a new story to tell to take the place of his old one about the cataclysm in Yoakum county, Texas, where a Democratic county convention instructed for Roosevelt, causing Wilson supporters to bolt. "I was walking down the street with Charles Hilles in Washington the other day," began Colonel Lyon, after some one had said President Taft's secretary had arrived at the Blackstone hotel. "A small delivery wagon passed," the colonel continued. "I looked up and saw four large volumes stacked on top with the titles facing us. Three of the books were reports of the Retus 0. Bacon, Georgia; Senator Joseph P. Johnson, Alabama; Senator John R. Thornton, Louisiana; Senator Thomas B, Catron, New Mexico; and Representatives William Richardson, Alabama; George W. Taylor, Alabama; Albert Estopinal, Louisiana; John Lamb, Virginia; Joshua F. C. Talbot, Maryland, and 'Charles M. Stedman, North Carollta. Only Fleg There Olri Glory. Th- dinner was given in the apartments of Representative Rucker in the Rochamboau. While this was a reunion of Confederate veterans, there were no deccrations of Confederate flags. Tfce orly flag was the "Stars and Stripes" which hung above the head of the table. Chief Justice White of the Supreme court at the request of the host acted as toastmaster. Each guest hat" a story to tell of the Civil war, including some of his personal experiences. There were no outsiders present to hear the old soldiers fight their battles over. The chief Justice of the United States was a private in the Confederate army and sa was his colleague of the bench, Mr. Justice Lurton. Lurton served with General Buckner and was present at Fort Donelson when it was captured by General Grant. Lurton was amoag the prisoners. He was only a boy at that time and the chanceB are that the northern general had no thought that among the men whom he had captured after they had made a heroic resistance was a future Justice of th* Supreme court. Thlc reunion ai Confederates was intentionally set for the National Memorial day as s. tribute of the south to the heroes of the Federal army against whom the guests of the reunion fought for four long years on many battle fields. The dinner waa cooked by souther* black "mammies" who were known to be experts in the art of preparing fond after the famous southern style. Big 'Gettysburg Reunion.

Good Nature the Rule. Good nature is the rule among all of the national committeemen and delegates. None is too haraased by puzzling political entanglements to deny any one a sm^le and handshake. "An old crab has lots of luck in this game—I. don't think!" laughed Senator Dixon, Roosevelt's manager, after he had passed out a dozen pulsating hand grasps. Then he walked over to former Senator DIck—Taft contest director—In the lobby of national committee headquarters at the Coliseum annex and slapped him on the back. u ,Lol" said Mr. Dixon. "Right back at you, senator," smjled Mr. Dick. Those who were near the two chiefs of the hostile camps could hear a boyish "Joe" and "Charley" being exchanged at times. They were like old college chums. Friendly eye twinkling scenes between chiefs and HeutenantB and subalterns of the opposing forces were common. One noteworthy meeting that started amicably and ended in a torrid argument was between Joseph Keallng of Indiana and Congressman Lucius C. Littauer of New York. Importance of the Bell Boys. tfne bell boys of the big hotels have been pressed into service for all sorts of duties. They not only carry Ice water and life preservers to the various headquarters and rooms of delegates, but also Berve in the capacity of page, "state house messenger," marshal of delegations, office boy, introducer, and general headquarters attache. There are hundreds of different documents to be exchanged between headquarters, with verbal explanations to go to the men in charge. "Here's the list of delegates from Alabama with the Twenty-third district left out," a delegation chief explains to the boy in buttons. "Take it up to Senator Blank with my compliments, and inform him I will send the rest to him in half an hour."

It is said his only reason for wearing so much hair is to conceal a bad scar on the back of his head received in an accident in his youth. Mr. Borah, like Jonah K. Kalanianaole, Hawaiian delegate, has a round, chubby, Buster Brown type of physiognamy. His dignity, however, Is such that none would think of calling him "Cupid"—and that is the brown skinned islander's nickname in congress. Has His Name on $5 Bill. A southern delegate was much excited over the appearance of a tall negro at the Coliseum annex who figured in several conferences. "Have you a $5 bill?" asked a^frlend. When the currency was produced the friend called attention to the signature of the registrar of the treasury, Judson Lyon, "That same dark person over there Is Judson Lyon, delegate from Georgia," was the explanation. Urey Woodson's Story. Urey Woodson, secretary of the Democratic national committee, is telling a story which has what he claims is a moral. "You Republicans," says Mr. Woodson, Vremind me of old Colonel Gunfire, who, although a Democrat, lived in a stronghold of Republicanism. One winter he blew in and asked to be sworn in as a member of the Democratic legislature, "Colonel, did you sure enough beat a Republican?" "Suh, I beat three of 'em at once."

An old can filled ^ith fine, well-rotted manure and watered every other day was sunk in the center of the circle. The beans ran to the top of their supports and until frost came yielded a very liberal sup* ply for a small family. In the case of tbe cannas several barrels of water and countless adjectives were used. In the case of the beans a pailful every other day.

SINGLETREE FOR AN ORCHARD One Described and Illustrated That Has Been Used to Advantage In New York State. » In response to a ojuery regarding singletree for use in cultivating young trees, I will endeavor to describe one I have seen used to good advantage in this section, writes Edwin Haight In the Rural New Yorker.

First of all, the soil must be well drained and prepared sufficiently deep so that the rootu may reach deep into the subsoil. Second, the surface soil must be cultivated frequently and a rotation ef cover crops and catch crops employed BO that a sufficient amount of plant food will be made available to promote a rapid, healthy growth rather than forcing the growth of the trees by the UBC of manures and fertilisers rich in nitrogen. In some rare instances the soil may be deficient in plant food, and the intelligent use of mineral plant foods will prove very beneficial. It is when the orohards begin to produce large crops of fruit that the demands for plant food must be met if profitable crops of superior fruit are secured. At this time the roots of the trees have taken possession of practically all of tbe soil, and have utilized the larger portion of the available plant food so that the addition of manure or fertiliser is essential. The function of the soil in furnishing the trees with nourishment is an exceedingly complex one, and there are certain well-defined laws that must be kept in mind for improvement and maintenance of the fertility of the soil that is occupied by the trees. Some orchardists advocate sod mulch, others depend upon cultivation and the liberal use of fertilizers and barn manures, others cover crops and mineral fertilizers as a means of improving and maintaining the fertility of orchard soils. The fact that no two soils required the same line of treatment has caused a confusion of ideas in the management of orchard soils.

Standing at the very gates of the nation's capital the memorial seemed a giguntic magnet drawing a representative throng from every corner of America. One hundred thousand visitors crowded within the city, according to the estimates of committees conducting the ceremonies. Half of that number were" members of tbe Knights of Columbus, gathered from near and far to give tribute to the patron of their order. President Taft spoke his praises of the man who made the United States possible. In recollection of the allegiance of Columbus to the king of Italy, the Marquis Cusani Gonfalonier!, tbe Italian ambassador at Washington, unveiled the memorial by releasing two huge American flags, whose folds clung to the granite shaft and marble statue of Columbus surmounting the fountain. A mammoth pageant of military splendor and civic simplicity accompanied tbe unveiling ceremonies. Simultaneously with the beginning of the exercises the parade formed in front of tbe White House, moved along the broad expanse of Pennsylvania avenue and the Union station, before which the memorial is erected. Massed about President Taft on the stands surrounding the memorial were members of the cabinet and con- ••gTess^"~^sttces_Tff_^the"'"sTipreme""''"c^"uTT and practically the entire diplomatic corps. Mgr. Thos. A. Shahan, rector of the Catholic university, opened the ceremonies with an invocation; Justice Victor J. Dowliug, of the supreme court of New York, delivered tt e initial oration, reciting the encomiums of the ageB upon America's discoverer, and ,Ia8. T. McCleary, of the Columbus memorial commission, followed with an eulogy just before the Italian ambassador, with a few words of tribute to his illustrious countryman, revealed the monument to the view of the world. The parade, under command of Gen. R. K. Evans, U. S. A., as grand marshal, passed in review of President Taft and Jas. A. Flaherty, supreme kuight of the Knighta of Columbus. MACOREGOR CONVICTD.
