The Kansas City Sun Walter S. Dickey for United States Senator HON. CHAS. H. CALLOWAY, One of Kansas City's Brilliant Attorneys. (By Beni, V. Longdon.) We can distinguish four ways, all of them important in which questions may be used; but we will take the use of questions as an aid to memory as being appropriate and the most familiar of the four kinds of questioning. And it is generally agreed that its value lies in the fact that a well chosen series of questions may touch every desired point, bringing each in turn into prominence and so impressing it upon the memory. Memory is easily first among the sacred faculties of the soul. It may well fill us with awe that we were created with the power to love, to forgive, to will, to choose, to anticipate; but most of all, to remember. Yet we need constant reminders of the best, the highest, the holiest things in life. They are much in danger of being marred and defaced in the daily scuffle and in a little while forgotten utterly. And this, "lest we forget," is precisely the main trouble with our race. We have forgotten; in the rush and stress of things we have almost forgotten our duty to the church, the school, the home, and our loyalty to our business and professional men. Do you subscribe for any of our weekly publications? The majority of us on the subscription list have gone to such lengths that we have simply forgotten that we are. You receive your paper all right, but where is the change? I recall the young Mrs. Smith, who discovered that her maid was strongly addicted to eating at all hours of the day. One day she ordered four pounds of veal for dinner. When the veal failed to appear on the table she questioned Bridget, who told her that the cat had eaten it. Mrs Smith placed the cat on the scales and found that it weighed exactly four pounds. "Well, Bridget," said she "here is the veal all right, but where is the cat?" ROSEDALE. KANSAS.

Are Your Relatives and Friends Getting It? VOLUME IX. NUMBER 4. PROF. JACKSON'S TRIP. The Allensworth Literary and Industrial Club invited me to come to Los Angeles, Cal., to put on a play in the Trinity Auditorium, one of the leading play houses there, for the benefit of the Old Folks' Home. I went, and had 100 voices in a program of two parts; the first p atrconsisting of folk songs, organ and piano numbers, and the second part 100 voices in Coleridge Taylor's Hiwatha Wedding Feast dramatized. The stage setting including palm trees, pine trees, teepees and other Indian effects were loaned to us by the park commissioners of the city of Los Angeles. We sang at the first M. E. church, also to an audience of 2,000 people, and I played a large pipe organ in that church. I played the largest pipe or gan I ever played in my life; it had 86 stops, contained harps, chimes bells, orchestral effects and has one stop that sounds like a human voice. The people were very much surprised because there had never been a Negro PROF. ROBERT G.

I assisted with the music at Bishop Park's Conference, and gave a concert in Oakland, with 100 volces. The concert in Oakland was very successful. The people of California certainly know how to treat a visitor. They had dinner parties, ocean parties and automobile parties galore. While in Los Angeles I organized a Western University Club. We have sixteen students there. The purpose is going to be to give a scholarship to some worthy person every year. Mrs. Sallie Jackson played on our program at Los Angeles and took the house by storm. A number of the white people said they did not know we had such an efficient pianist in our race. Mr. Nelson C. Crews and Mr. George Love, while they were in California, certainly won the hearts of the people, and the people are still talking about them everywhere and they are screaming for them to come back. They say it has been a long time since they have had a man speak like Crews. R. G. JACKSON. EVERYBODY INVITED KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1916.

ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF A. M. E. CHURCHES CLOSE IN A BLAZE OF GLORY. Appointments Made by Bishop Parks Gives General Satisfaction to All. The 49th session of the California A. M. E. church closed in a blaze of the closing was indeed a fitting climax to one of the greatest conferences ever held on the Pacific Coast. On Sunday morning Bishop Parks preached a memorable sermon; one of those soul-stirring sermons, and as a result thereof, one of the greatest spiritual awakenings manifested itself that it has ever been the writer's lot to witness. Strong men and women wept and rose from their laces in the audience and came forth professing Jesus Christ as their Savior. There was upward of twenty who joined the church at this service.

We are entering, as I have intimated, upon a new economic era. We have behind us the driving force of patriotic sentiment. We must have a dominant sense of unity. That sentiment must express itself in unswerving loyalty; and through its government it must express itself in maintaining the rights of American citizens on land and sea in every part of the world. We cannot progress as a nation without a national sentiment that prizes American citizenship and conserves all the rights that pertain to American citizenship. We must have that indomitable spirit that gave us our country, that preserves our country, if in the days of the troubled twentieth century, we hold an honored place among the nations of the world. We must have efficiency in government."—Mr. Hughes in his speech at Portland, Maine.

One of the most inspiring, enthusiastic and intellectual services was held at St. Stephen's Baptist church Sunday evening, September 17. In the presence of the committee appointed by Conroe Normal and Industrial college to confer the degree of honor, Rev. Dr. J. W. Hurse graced his pulpit in the usual manner, soliciting the prayers of his people, and also of his distinguished guests, if they felt so disposed, and delivered one of the most able sermons in the history of his pastorate. It was indeed an evening of long remembrance to the members and friends of St. Stephen's Baptist church, and as the hour was growing late, time would not permit us to express our thankfulness. We are indeed proud of our pastor, whom we feel is a God-sent blessing to our people, and we realize that we have not words to form in sentences that will adequately express our gratitude. We can only look at him as a lily of the valley. How he grows! We, the officers and members and friends of St. Stephen's Baptist church, extend to President Dr. David Abner of Conroe Normal and Industrial College our sincere appreciation for the high honor bestowed upon our pastor, Rev. J. W. Hurse. We pray that his life may be full of sunshine and that he may live long and give high honors to other struggling and deserving men who are trying to make their mark in life. To the noted leaders in our city who conferred this degree we extend to you our appreciation and will always well come you in our midst, as you always bring sunshine and intelligence in our church.

It appears that, chancing t come Reross a consignment of damaged hats In Port Elizabeth, which were offered for a mere song, De Villiers bought the whole lot, packed them away in his wagon and started for Kaffirland. When he reached Tembuland he un- loaded his stock, opened his kegs of Uquor, without which no trade was made at that time, and began busi- ness, But he found his venture likely to prove an unprofitable one. The na- tives did not want hats; they wanted blankets and beads and looking glasses, and, above all, liquor, but they looked askance at hats, Then a bright {dea came to De Villers, He wanted to introduce those hats. His simple expedient was to refuse to sell anything to a Kaflir unless he bought a hat also. The Kaffirs wanted his goods, so they bought the hats, When a Kaffir buys anything. he tel bound to make use of it. The na- tives, therefore, donned their hend- /gear and returned to their kraals. Now appeared the brilliancy of the trader's Idea. Fashion rules the world. It is a8 strong in Africa as in America, and when those who stayed at home saw the travelers re- turn fn all the glory of this strange covering they felt behindhand and old- fashioned. Their desire to possess the latest thing in hats became intense, ‘They paid De Villers a visit, and his stock no longer hung heavy on his hands, The hats were soon sold. Seismographs to Find Batteries. Among the many things to which science has turned its attention and abilities since the beginning of the European war, none, perhaps, has been of greater importance than the development of some means by which men In the trenches could locate with fair accuracy the position of an op- posing battery or group of machine guns, This matter has been worked on in many ways, but the nearest scl- ence ever came to solving the propo- sition was the use of strong glasses with the ald of observation balloons and aeroplanes, Now, however, a new development has been announced, in which the sels- mograph, long known as an earth quake defector, is made use of, It is declared to be possible to tell from the shock of the gunfire just how large the guns are, what thelr distance away is, and the exact direction in which they le. A practiced eye, It Is claimed, can tell not only these points, but can distinguish between the shock of firing and the shock of a missile striking the ground, ad also is able to determine just how many guns compose any battery that may be in action.

During the past quarter they have extended over a pe- riod of about seven years, from ap- proximately A. D. 50 to 57, exd are all centered about the life and teaching of Paul. It ts difficult to attempt a logical review. A number of lessons have been introduced from the letters ‘of Paul, which are not chronological in the development of the church. It might be well, perhaps, to consider first the leading events in the life of Paul, and second the prominent char- acteristics of Paul's life as we have had them presented to us, and also to consider six of the cities In which Paul founded churches in Europe, studying their modern names and con- ditions and looking into the difficulties and dangers which he encountered, In Lesson One we have the record of Paul's untiring aetivity, and his per- sistent use of the Scriptures. Every ‘one of his sermons was confirmed by ‘the Word of God. Lesson ‘Two pre- sents his interest In those who were ‘converted in his ministry; also a sug- gestion as to his unceasing prayerful- hess on thelr behalf, Lesson Three ‘presents his tact and wisdom in preaching the Risen Christ, and his emphasis upon the need of repentance. ‘Lesson Four gives a suggestion of his ‘untiring activity In the midst of great ‘discouragement and in the fact of bit- ‘ter apposition. Lesson Five reveals ‘his persistent determination to know and to preach nothing save Jesus Christ and him erueified. Lesson Six is Paul's panegyric on love as the su- preme gift, Lesson Seven is an ex- position of the duty and blessedness of cheerful giving. In it is given a new beatitude of Jesus, “It is more blessed to give than to recelve,” which Is nowhere else recorded, | Lesson Eight, another suggestion as to his courage. Lesson Nine emphasizes humility, compassionate love and a fearless declaration of the whole coun- sel of God. Lesson ‘Ten presents his forgetfulness of himself and his eager- ness to preach Christ even when threatened by an unrestrained mob. Lesson Twelve again presents his. for -getfulness of himself, and his eager selzing of every possible opportunity to preach the Lord Jesus. { ‘Turning to the citles that Paul vis? ited, we first encounter Philipp!

This is the first city in Bu- rope where there was a Christian chureh, and it was one which Paul especially loved. ‘Though he was driv- en from it by a mob, and escaped by means of an angel, yet his letter to “that church 1s a revelation of his feel- ing toward his first European congre- gation, ‘Thessalonica, the modern Salonikt in Macedonia, formerly be- longed to the Turkish empire in Bu- rope. Here Paul founded a chureh, consisting of Jews and Greeks. Paul is accused of turning the wortd upside down, and teaching Jesus to be the Christian's king. For this he was accused of treason against Rome. Two epistles were written to the church in which he does not record any fault- finding, ‘This church tas been called the “Church Beautiful.” Athens was then, as now, the chief clty of Greece, and one of the threc most renowned cities in the history of the world, Paul's famous address on Mars hill was treated with great indifference, His stay was short, and never after- wards do we find him showing forth his learning, but ever after he ex- Presses his determination to know nothing save “Jesus Christ and Him’ erueified.” (I, Cor, 2:1, 2).)

Visitors to the historical places and bulldings of Ireland hear much talk of Strongbow. In the twelfth century, when Strongbow became famous, Ire- land was divided into many small provinces, and each of these hnd its petty king. Dermot MacMurrough, who was king of the province of Leinster, was a very cruel and unpop- ular ruler, and he was so disliked and abused by his people and the neigh- boring rulers that he finally fled to ‘England, where he begged King Henry TI for help In subduing his enemies. But Henry remembered that there were many other kings in Ireland and he refused to side with MucMurrough, though he gave permission to’ any of his subjects who liked, to go to Iretand and ald the Leinster king. A company ‘of barons, therefore, left thelr barren lands In’ South Wales and erossed over to Ireland to win themselves rich londs there where soll was fertile, At the head of this band of barons was Richard de Clare, earl of Pembroke, who was known as Strongbow. ‘They landed at Waterford, which city these barons stralghtway captured, Strong- how made his claim even stronger by marrying the daughter of Dermot MacMurrough. ‘Then, learning that Dublin was just then struggling to free Itself from the rule of the Danes, Strongbow made all haste In that di- rection, and soon he had taken the city by storm. Since that first land. Ing and conquest by Strongbow and the other barons the English have al- ways held more or less power over Ire- land. An old historian, named Cambren- sis, gives us the following quaint de scription of the warrior Strongbow: “The earl was somewhat ruddie and of sanguine complexion and_ freckle faced, his eles grei, his face feminine his voice small, and his necke little but somewhat of a high stature. He was very lbernl, courteous and gen: tle; what he could not compasse and bring to passe In died, he woutd win hy good words and gentle speeches In time of peace he was more readte to yleld and obele than to rule and beare swale. In all chances of warre he was still one and the same mane of man, being neither dismald with adversitie nor puffed up with pros peritie,” a pleture which hardly. fits such a twelfth-century conquetor— Christian Science Monitor.

As an evidence of the fall- Ing off in this éne-time great national game, it may be stated that few peo- ple realize that there now exists an unprecedented shortage of poker chips, due to the war across the seas. ‘The knowledge of this threatened crisis has caused a world-wide search to be mnde for the mineral known as ‘barite, which enters largely into the manufacture of poker chips. In the days before the forelgn war barite came chiefly from Austria. It is well known to mineralogists that the Llano region of ‘Texas con- tains many rare and little-known met- als.

The specimens were found in a well which apparently pene- trated a prehistoric Inke bed. Teeth of mammoths, fossil leaves and other specimens of prehistoric ages have been found in wells on the Pedrolt ranch, They are among the best in the fossil collection at the university, as they show clearly the age and classi- fication to which they belong, Brace Up! ae ee “You who sit all day In one position, square your shoulders and brace up.” “The ‘consumptive stoop’ doesnot make for health, so brace up." “The slouch, the sag, the droop, the slump are poor guarantees of fitness, ‘They endanger your heaith and your Job.

Thus, at the Herbert hospital, Lat Shooter's Hill, there have been since the beginning of the war from three to four thousand operations, and Colonel Simpson, the officer in charge, declared that he did not believe there had been in all more than 25 primary amputations, | ‘The impression left by a tour of these hospitals upon the fayman’s mind is that outsiders have an utterly tn- | adequate iden of. the debt they owe to modern surgery at a time like the present. Day by doy the surgeons are giving to the nation new men for old, ‘They have embarked upon a freat mission of hope among the na- | tlon’s soldiers. ‘They are doing more than would have been credible twenty Fears ago to rob war of its ultimate | horror. Out of the hundreds of wonderful cases brought to one’s notice during these visits it 1s only possible to de scribe a few that May be regarded as typleal of this trade of mending sol diers. ‘Take first the new nerve sur | gery. Here is a man with a bulle hole near his collar bone which sev | ered the nerve controlling the muscle: of the wrist, ‘Tho result was “wris drop” and a hand which until quite re cently would have been regarded a: ineurably useless, ‘The two ends o the severed nerve have been free from what fad already become 1 | more than a sear, they have been re united and there fs every prospect tha in less than a year the hand will b almost as good as ever. “As simple as tylng up the two end: of a cut telephone wire,” says the sur geon who operated, Amazing Nerve Cases. There are more remarkable nervy cases still, A man had part of th fleshy portion of his arm shot away carrying with {t four inches of th herve necessary to control the han movements. ‘The surgeon rang up set eral hospitals on the telephone til h heard of what he wanted, the ampu tation that afternoon of a healthy limt | Phe Umb bappends tp be a leg, an | tt was amputated Inthe afternoon.

Of remarkable examples of earpen- try applied to broken limbs most hos- pitals have two or three, if not more, on hand, A young fellow was brought Into the hospital with one leg short- ened by five Inches, owing to the ends of the broken bone overlapping. He seemed a hopeless cripple. The leg was rebroken under an anesthetic, an eighth of an inch cut off from each side of the fracture so as to secure a smooth Joint, and a steel plate fastened on with six screws, precisely as one would mend the broken leg of a table, ‘The plate and screws will remain in position as a permanent addition to the soldier's anatomy, for steel will hot rust among the tissues. And the min bas a leg practically as long and as straight as, and rather stronger than, It way Intended to be by nature, Some of the most cruel wounds are those In the Jaw, but even here what the skill and patience of the surgeon have been able to do Is wonderful. One poor fellow who had heen provided with a new roof to his mouth was one of the most cheerful of the patients. His come songs are the delight of the ward. You cease to be amazed at any helght of human skill or human cour. age after a few hours in any of these military hospitals, You know for cer- tain then that man is unconquerable. Where the Injury 1s to the upper part of the face, resulting In, say, the removal of the nose and one eye, tagl- cal results are being achieved In a southwestern district hospital by the provision of masks perfectly counter felting the lost section of the physiog: nomy. Lieut. Derwent Wood is. the Inventor of the plan. With the help of photographs of what a patient was like before being wounded he will make s false nose of silvered copper, artistic ally painted to mateh the surrounding complexion, which will so far defy de teetion as to enuble the owner to gc out into the: world again without shrinking and play his old part in th affairs of men. ‘A Remarkable Operation. Here 1s another remarkable case Not long ago a wounded Guardsmar was brought into the Queen Alexandr: hospital at Millbank, suffering from | shrapnel wound, Examination unde the X-rays showed that a piece o metal as large as a halfpenny an much thicker had entered the breas and lodged in the region of the hear It was, in fact, actually touching th ‘heart and impeding its action, An of J eration was decided on, and the sur | geon thrust his hand right Into th opening and pulled out the plece 0 metal, which {8 preserved as a sou venir. ‘There was a danger that dur Jing anesthesia the lungs would col lapse, and therefore ether was pumpe Into them to keep them distended ‘That gallant Guardsman {s now ou and about, and it is declared that hi | will not feel the slightest ill effect from his strange experience.

Once there they set about producing tiny gas bubbles among the tissues, hence the name “gas gangrene.” But the gas they cannot endure {s oxygen, and the obvious way to destroy them is to Introduce oxygen into the inner- most recesses of the wound. This {s secured by various methods according to the nature of the injury. A hole Fight through the shoulder will be ster- Hized by the use of a wick drawing Peroxide of hydrogen from a small tank above the bed. Another kind of Wound may be sprayed with ozone and the third more conveniently dealt with by means of a perforated tube fed with oxygen gas from a cylinder, ‘The operations to which reference has been made would doubtless be de- seribed as severe even by the surgeons themselves; nevertheless, modern scl: ence has robbed them of most of thelr terrors. ‘The Improvements in anes theties aye been such that it is no uncommon thing for an operation tc last two hours and for the pationt tc feel no ill effects from the drug 4 quarter of an hour after he recovers consciousness, Some, indeed, will be smoking a cigarette within that spac of time, ‘The secret Iles in the admin Istration of oxygen with the anes thetic.

LOST HIS MEMORY AT FIRE Indiana Man, Who Was in Iroquois Dis- aster in Chicago, Forgot His Past Life. _ Binghamton, N, Y.—After being given up as dead 13 years, Milton Sim- mons, Kokomo, Ind., real estate dealer, has ‘returned to his mother, Mrs. Cecelia Simmons, Syracuse. Simmons tells a remarkable story of his loss of memory resulting from the Troquols fire in Chicago, He was oper- ‘ating a spot light in the baleony when ‘the fire broke out and he was plunged 60 feet into the bodies below, but was rescued. ‘The fall caused loss of mem- ory, and after two months {n a hos- pital he recovered, going to Tipton, Ind., where he engaged tn business and married. Later he went into the real estate business in Kokomo, where he now resides. Increasing pressure on the brain from the Injury resulted in the neces- sity for an operation last winter, and following this he gradually regained memory of his mother and his former life, WILL NOT GET HER WAIST British War Regulations Prevent Fa. ther of Indiana Woman From Fol- lowing Usual Custom. Fort Wayne, Ind.—Mrs, Brownle Simmons of Chicago, who has been visiting relatives in Fremont, will not recelve this year a waist from her fa- ther in England, as she has each year for many years, because of the war regulations, She has recelyed a letter from her mother saying the customs officers have refused to permit the waist to be sent out of the country, saying that would mean another waist would have to be Imported to replace it, Mrs, Simmons’ mother also wrote that she {8 required to spend one day euch week wheeling wounded or sick soldiers about for an airing, ‘Ad Brings 602 Dogs.

Not All Youngsters Like This Most! Valuable of All Foods, and Here ‘Are Some Methods of Intro. ducing It into Diet. How to introduce the necessary quantity of milk Into the diet of a child who dislikes it ts a problem which confronts many mothers at this time of year. Milk {s such a perfect food for children that it {s always a pity when it is not taken readily and en- Joyed, but with a litle ingenuity, the trouble usually m-; ‘se overcome. The best authorities on children’s diet con- sider ‘a quart of milk a day the prop- er allowance for a child past the third yeur, this quantity to Include mille used in preparing food and that served with cereals, as well as milk taken as a beverage. Where a child shows a disinclina- tion to drink milk, fancy colored ‘lusses with figures sketched on the outside will often change the aspect of things and distract the child’s at- tention. Sucking the milk through a straw 1s another innocent trick by means of which the desired quantity is absorbed. Cocos, either hot or cold, is another valuable means of intro- ducing milk into a child's diet, as only enough cocon need be added to change the appearance and fluvor. | An excellent way of introducing milk {nto a child's diet ts with vermicelll, which In many families 1s considered the nursery form of macaroni, In- stead of the familiar white sauce | served to adults the final cooking of the vermicelli should be in mille and slightly thickened. Milk should also be used on finely chopped potato and on any other vegetables where a cream sauce would ordinarily be served. Cereals cooked in milk instead of in water are practically the same in ap- pearance, though much more nutri- tlous because of the milk absorbed In the slow cooking. Half milk and half water may also be used, or the pre- Iminary cooking can be done In water and milk added to the cereal when portly done. Cereal puddings, elther hot or cold, also offer a wide range for the attractive use of milk. ‘The sim- plest of creamy rice puddings can be completely changed in appearante by the addition of cocoa stirred in while the ingredients are belng mixed. ‘An egg pouched In milk and served with a spoonful of thickened milk poured over it on a slice of toast will often be enjoyed by a child who re- fuses milk as a beverage. Another excellent way of combining egg and milk 1s to beat an egg until light and foamy, adding a scant half cupful of milk and a few grains of salt. Pour into a buttered ramekin and set in a pan of bolling water either on the stove or in the oven. Do not stir but let It cook until thick and creamy. | Let the child eat it from the ramekia. Scotch Broth. The following recipe was given me at a famous Dickens’ hotel in Eng- land: Take the liquor any mutton has been boiled in and remove the fat when cold. Wash a cupful of pearl barley and put it on to, boll. When done add to the Nquor; also a turnip, carrot, onlon, and a Uttle celery. Boll until the vegetables are tender and serve. Grated raw carrot on the top of this soup Improves the flavor and adds much to the appearance. ‘There was enough of the stock, proba- bly a large kettleful, so that the broth was thin. A single pound of mutton shoulder, the fat and skin removed be- fore it {8 cooked in two quarts of wa- ter, will flavor a barley liquid suffi clently for n delicate soup, but three pounds are often used. To preserve some of the strength of the meat, which may be taken out and used with a gravy Or a curry sauce, saute it tn hot fat and add boiling water to cook it, Left over barley porridge may be used for thickening a broth, hades Podse Pickle® Recine.

Excellent to serve with mieats. ‘Stuffed Egg Aurore, These are made by removing the yolks from hard-boiled eggs, and mix- ing them with a tablespoonful of fresh cream, the same amount of fresh but- ‘ter, English mustard, and a teaspoon- full of minced tarragon leaves. ‘The ‘mixture should be put through # fine wire sieve, then into a pastry bag and forced through a rose tube into the halved whites of the eggs; each Is decorated with a star-shaped pleco ‘of pimento and garnished with water- eres, They may be served in'neste of watercress,—Vogue, Beef Relich.

Senator Jim Reed is at home, all ready to use his “woody-dell” oratory and biting “sourcasm” in an impas- sioned appeal to the people to “stand by the President,” a thing that Jim failed to do a number of times him- sult. Senator Reed denies that Congress was “held up” for the so-called “eight: hour” law, the purpose of which was to fool about 400,000 railway employes into believing that they were being legislated into a twenty-five per cent inerease of wages. The horse pistol was missing, of course, but the act was unmistakable. We don't blame Reed for asking that it be given a more polite designation. Vance MeCormick, the Democratic National chairman, announces that the result in Maine is & Democratic victory and goes back twenty-four Years for a comparison to prove it. ‘The tact ts that the Democrats lost everything in Maine—senators, con: gressman, legislature and even county officers. They don't get a look-in.

Then the powers happened to recall*that election {s very near and the edict was hastily recalled. Will the black men be so easily fooled by this trick? Is there not enough of manhood and race loy- alty in the heart of every Negro voter to revolt against such brazen insults as these, coming from the very source to which we should look for sympathy and encouragement? ‘With the approach of -winter the clty is rapidly filling up with recruits for an already large number of foot- pads, holdup men and housebreakers.

Mock Kisses a By VICTOR REDCLIFFE Copyright, 196, by W. G. Chapman.) Ruby Wardell was madly Jealous of her husband and he never suspected the fact. Certainly he was handsome, chatty, accommodating, but all of his {impulses were of the friendly and hu: mane order and he idolized his wife folely as the apple of his eye. He had noticed the tirst gloss of sweetness and perfect happiness some- what dissipated after the first six months of married life, but he at tributed the growing pettishness of Ruby to loneliness, ennui, the absence of close girihood friends. Arnold was away a good deal of his tlie, being a traveling salesman, He felt sorry. for Ruby on this nccount, As to Kuby. she continued to hear what terrible flirts these knights of the road were, most of thei, her informants assured her, like the sailor who hus a sweet heart in every port. If Arnold had understood his wit and her conceal suspicions better he would never have telegraphed her one summer afternoon : “Man away for two days. Expect @ big order. Will be delayed forty-eight hours.” ‘These fnets were true, Arnold was acting under a strictly business tm petus sind house instructions.

There was a tittle Krove near it. The plice was delicious- Ty quiet and cool, Arnold sut down under a spreading onk and fell asleep, 1. He awoke to the sound of conversa- felon near by. Getting to his feet he iamde out beyond, a bright pretty waid- en of ubout eighteen und a slouchy, ‘but honest-faced country bumpkin a wtrifle older. Near by was a keen-faced business-appearing young man, ob- viously city bred. Leaning aguinst a tree was a tripod and camera. The young man was speaking: | “It will never do.” “ “What do you want me to do?" de- manded the bumpkin in a fretful tone, “squeeze her to death?” “Not at all—be the natural lover, Don't smack her, kiss her daintily. Don't grub her us if she were a stuck of wheat. Be expressive, my young friend.” “Say,” spouted the bumpkin, “you want a love scene? Well, here it Is true to nature, isn't It, Nellie?” "Yes," nodded the blushing girl. “phat’s the way Hiram hus always made love." ‘The young man looked troubled, He stood musing. Finally he observed: “Eve offered our young friend here fa thousund dollars to let me catch a good rural movie, winding up by burn ing down this worthless old ruttletrap of a mill, That's all right, 1 can make the fire scene thrilling enough, but I've got to have hulf a reel of genuine sen. timent preceding the sensational de noument. Wish I had one of the reg ular troupe here. You won't do a all, The audience would sluply laugh.’ “There's Lem Powers,” observed the kirl shyly. “He knows how to play tove.” “How do you know?" roared the aroused Hiram, “He studied In an elocution school.’ “Yes, I'd like wo see Lem masing love to you. Oh, yes," snorted Hiram “Can I help you out?” abruptly to quired Arnold, cowlng into view. All bands stared at bis pleasant «mil Ing face, the girl purticularly, th movie “man with interest, Hiram du biously. Said the latter: “Just play kisses, mind you!" “Oh, surely,” agreed Arnold accom modatingly. “I've got a little time t spare, What's the program, Mi Movie?" ‘The young man addressed outline two seenes, Arnold aeted them out ¢ fection und Miss Nellie lie wa cute and original, If a trifle awkwury ‘was a final scene where Arnol jumped from a window in the bivzin ~ mill, The ‘man settled with 4 ‘cai the Tatton. god Mallia invited MRE CE a Ey clared, “It's Just like picking that thousand dolinrs out of the. road, sell- ing that wreek of a mill.” Arnold returned home and forgot all nbout the Incident. Three months Inter Mrs. Wardell Invited a lady frieud to a new movie, advertised as “Rural Love.” Mrs. Wardell gasped, her friend stired in grim silence as the film prog- ressed. It was the mill comedy that Arnold had played tn, now on the verge of being turned into a positive tragedy, Arnold Wardell renched home that evening to find Ruby with her hat and wraps on, her trunk in the hallway and no supper ready. “Why, what does this mean?” be asked in wonderment. “It means that I have been to see ‘Rural Love’ and that you are a vil- Man!” “Wewhat?" fairly shouted Arnold, “And T'm going home to mother, A fice scandal you've made, Oh-oh-ob!” and the hysterical Ruby flounced out through the open front doorway. Arnold snatched up his hat to fot- low her. Ax he stepped upon the porch he caught a hint of a new element of mystery In the scene under play. “You dating hussy! Oh, this (s too much!" “Pm not a bussy. Tm Mrs, Hiram Briggs and I've come to see our good. kind friend who helped us make a thousand dollars, and since then Uncle Jared has given us a farm, and we're the happlest people In the world, Oh, Mr. Wardell! we told you we would call, but maybe you don’t want to see us.” “And, say, what do you think— they've got that whole mill business in the movies. We saw it today,” add: ed Hiram, “And you look just as nice and hand: some us you did the day you helped us out!” erled Nettle. “oh” exclaimed Arnold suddenly, enlightened. “And you saw the movie Ruby, and fancied 1 was—a villain?” “You?” cried Nellie, “Ob, no, In deed! You are the best gentleman tn the world, and we like and respec you, and We wunt you to come down to the new farm and spend a month's va cation with us—and your wife,” added Nellie, but a tritle dublously. Mrs, Wardell, however, began to see the light. She got the whole story. Within the hour she became trans: formed into a model hostess. “It’s all right, Arnold,” she told bet husband, after their guests were gone, “but that movie so rewinded me of how you used to be.” “Tin Just the same as ever,” declared Arnold, “Don't you think you have changed a trifle?” “Yes, Ido.

A field mouse which hud fallen into tv hole dug to receive a telegraph pole displayed great Ingenuity and perse- verance in effecting its escape. The first hour or so he ran round the bot: tom of the hole trying to tind some means of escape, but could not climb out. ‘Then he settled down to bast ness, He began steudily and system: atically to dig a spiral groove, round and round the Inner surface of the hole, with a uniformly ascendin; grade. He worked night and day, und as he got farther from the vottom he dug little pockets where he could clther lie or sit and rest. The tele kraph workers, who had noticed bis plight and were curious to kifow now he would eseape, supplied the litth engineer with food. At the end of tw« weeks the mouse struck a rock. ‘Thh puzzled him, For nearly a day he tried to get under, around, or over the obstruction, but without suecess With untlinching patience he reversed the spiral, and went on tunneling is way In the opposite direction, At the end of four weeks he reached the top and probably sped away to enjoy bis well-earned freedom, His escape was not observed. © gtendane.- ‘The southern part of Flanders in which the heaviest fighting of the year 44 occurred, greatly resembles the watery part of the Netherlands, It Is a region of low pastures and “high skies,” ditches, rain und salt spray. ‘The opening of the locks at Nieuport flooded the land on both sides of thw Yser canal.

Many are fascinat- ing women whose minds are better trained, and whose manners, though more direct, are more considerate and whole-hearted than those of our own “best people.” But the “intelligent” woman In Rus- ‘sla looks without admiration upon the woman who 1s living as a respectable ornament.

Retinn, sonia ore oven Big Ben (Copyright, 1916, by W. G. Chapmar.) Big Ben lay on the hillside, well within sight of the fall from which he had escaped. But that implied no particular danger to Big Ben, for one could see thirty miles in the clear atmosphere of the hills. And the penitentiary was at least twelve miles away, and that lay across forest and mountain. Big Ben was a lifer. He had killed a fellow man, while mad with drink. He had served four years, and had been made a trusty. He had not planned to escape, but the way was open and he walked out. That had been eight days before. Big Ben had raided a hecoop, seized a dozen struggling fowls, tied them into a bundle, and taken them to his retreat. They were busy laying eggs for his breakfast—what were left of them. Big Ben had no appetite. He had also stolen a sack of flour and a dozen boxes of matches, as well as a goodly supply of chewing tobacco. Now he was at peace with the world. He meant to stay there another week, till the hue and cry died down, and then to make his way across the hills to the railroad. They had been firing guns all the night before, but that could not be on account of his escape. Big Ben wondered whether another prisoner had escaped. He felt sorry for Travis, the warden, who had always treated him so well. Travis would get into trouble about him. If another prisoner had Walters Facing Him, Across the Stream, Was Maisle. made his getaway Travis would probably lose his job, and the prison system would be made more severe. Big Ben was sorry for Travis. He was sorry for his wife and the little girl, Maisle, who had brought him flowers sometimes. Maisle was five, and had a way which went straight to the heart of the most hardened prisoner. Still, if the way lay open, a man must try to get free. The appetite for liquor had quite left Big Ben. He meant to live a decent life henceforward, once he could strike the track and jump a freight to Halsworthy. There he would lose himself, and after a while strike west again. Big Ben was a good sort of man, he saw his past life and regretted it. He meant to make the best of his chances now. And he swore that he would die rather than go back to penitentiary life. A little stream ran purling down beside the cave in which he slept. Big Ben rose to get a drink of water. As he approached the stream, out of the shelter of the trees, he recolled in astonishment and terror. Facing him, across the stream, was Maisie. Maisie in a torn dress, with grubby hands and tear-stained face. Maisie, recognizing him with a glad smile, a cry of delight, and running through the water toward him. Maisie, snuggling into Big Ben's arms and holding up her face for a kiss. Big Ben looked at her. "Where's your daddy?" he asked. "I don't know," said Maisie. "I got lost." "Lost? When?" "Last night. I was plecking flowers, and I looked up and the trees were all round me. And I couldn't go home." The child must have wandered miles during the night. So that was what the guns had been firing for! "But you'll take me home, won't you, Big Ben?" continued Maistle, looking up into his face. Big Ben was staggered. He could not find any answer to make. "You see, daddy will be awful glad to see me again," said the little girl. "And now I found you. I know you'll take me back to daddy." Big Ben swallowed an bath. He still stared at the girl. "See here, kiddy, if you just walk and walk—" he began; and then he saw the startled look upon her face. And all his dreams of the future faded into blankness. "Sure I'll take you home, kiddy," he said, and, pleicking up the baby in his arms, he began to carry her through the trees Twelve miles it was—and with every step Big Ben's heart became so much lead. He strode along, now setting down the little girl, to let her pick some flower that had taken her fancy, now carrying her again. Presently, toward mid-day, he saw the little head nod in his arms. Maisie was sleeping, worn out by the walk of the night. Big Ben was just reaching the edge of the wood. The trees were becoming sparser. The hills dipped into a level valley. The penitentiary was only five miles away. And through the trees Big Ben could see the white and dusty highway that wound over field and mead until it passed under the grim brick walls, already looming ominously in the distance, the very incarnation of relentless fate. Big Ben cursed himself for a fool. He looked down at the little sleeping child and laid her softly upon the grass. He took three steps backward and looked at her again. Malste half opened her eyes and smiled. "Big Ben!" she murmured. Swallowing a curse, Big Ben strode to her and raised her in his arms again. After that he went doggedly toward the high road. Presently he saw a horseman riding toward him. Big Ben swallowed hard. He hesitated; then, with firm steps, he walked straight for the beast and its rider, who, as he approached, resolved himself into the familiar form of the warden. Big Ben was halting now in front of the warden, Travis, who held a pistol in his hand. But he did not point it at Big Ben. He let it fall back into the holster. There were tears in Travis' eyes as he took the little, sleeping girl out of Big Ben's arms and held her across his saddle. He said not a word, but motioned to Big Ben to walk in front of his horse. Dogged, silent, but strangely happy, Big Ben led the procession back toward the walls of the jail. Suddenly he heard an exclamation behind him. "Big Ben!" shouted the warden. Big Ben looked round. Travis had reined in his horse, and was looking alternately from Big Ben to Maiste's face. "You darned fool!" said the warden. "Big Ben!" "Sir!" "I'm going to ride straight to the penitentiary. You are to follow me. Do you hear, confound you?" "Yes, sir," answered Big Ben. "Yes, sir," answered Big Ben. Travis rode ahead at a gallop. Presently he relied in and looked round. Big Ben was following him. "Big Ben, have you gone crazy?" demanded Travis. "It looks like it, sir," answered Big Ben. "Big Ben!" "Sir!" "The prisons head is coming here next month. He generally asks me if I wish to recommend any prisoners for the consideration of the pardons board. I—I guess I may have a name or two to put down." "Yes, sir," answered Big Ben. The penitentiary loomed very near. Presently they were riding under the grim walls. The gate opened before them and closed grimly behind them. Volcanic Islands. The first of the Bogosof group of the Aleutian islands was born 120 years ago. There was a great convulsion in the Behring sea, about twenty-five miles north of Unalaska, and an island appeared above the surface of the stormy waters. This islet, which rose to a height of nearly 3,000 feet above sea level, was christened Bogosof by the Russians, who then owned Alaska. It remained solitary until 1882, when another volcanic eruption in the sea was followed by the birth of another island near the first. For two years the new island was the scene of an active eruption. Then it cooled gradually, and, like the first islet, became the home of seals and sea lions and the breeding ground for sea birds. The third of the Bogosof group was born ten years ago. The "baby" was smaller than its elder sister, being about a third of a mile in diameter and with an altitude of some 600 feet, but the following year another convulsion of nature resulted in nearly doubling its area. Since then several other islands have been born in various parts of the Aleutian chain. Improper Use of "Don't" There is nothing incorrect about the elision of "do" and "not" which makes "don't", if it is used correctly. But there is scarcely another word in the English language which is so often used incorrectly. It is a strange thing, but we often hear otherwise educated people using this elided form on the negative in the singular, people who would not think of using the affirmative of it as singular. "She don't" and "he don't" are just as disagreeable to the cultivated ear as "she do" and "he do" would be and it is astonishing that anyone of the most elementary grammatical knowledge could be so deaf to the values of English speech as to use them. Still the mistake is annoyingly common. Recently we even heard an actor, playing the part of a gentleman of refinement, say "she don't love me." Ugh! And, if actors cannot at least speak our mother tongue grammatically, what are they good for? Remember, it is just as easy to be right and say "she does not" or "doesn't."—Ohio State Journal. Sentiment A white lady was passing, a small cabin in a Tennessee town when a black woman came to the door and hailed a pickaninny playing in the yard. "You, Fertilizer!" called out the mother. "Come yere and got yore face washed." The passer-by stopped. "Excuse my curiosity, please," she said; "but what did you call that child?" "I called her by her regular name," said the colored woman. "I called her Fertilizer." "Isn't that rather a peculiar name for a child?" asked the lady. "Not of you knows how dat chile come to git it," stated the parent. "You see, Missis, dat chile is named partly fur her paw and partly fur me. Her paw's name is Fertinand and my name's Eliza."—Illustrated Sunday Magazine. Something in That. I wish I had a pretty name," said Betty. "I wish my name was Alice or Evangeline or something like that." "Why, my dear," said papa, "you have the only name I ever heard that will rhyme with 'pretty', and what more could you want?" The Growing Importance O O O O doubt the man who paid an even $800 for a single hen, "Lady Egantine," not long ago, will get his money back with liberal interest. The phenomenal value of this hen lay in the fact that she had just completed the astonishing performance of producing 314 eggs in 365 days. It is assumed that the progeny of Lady Egantine will also be wonderful egg machines, for which reason her eggs will command the highest prices for hatching purse. Doses; as a matter of fact, they are already selling at $5 apiece. To be safe, this is much of a gamble, but hundreds of people will be glad to take the chance.

The cardboard boxes especially depping chicks are manufactured and such keen senses that they can keep the temperature at close to 103 degrees without referring to a thermometer, which instrument is never employed. Custom hatching in this country is quite another matter, and has been made possible only by the invention of incubators of the continuous type, heated from a coal-burning furnace and requiring only a comparatively small amount of attention. It is a line of work which farmers' wives and other women can follow with success and to which farmers themselves, as well as the owners of large poultry plants, are turning their attention. Men and women living near the larger towns, and especially if close to the railroad station or on a trolley line, are particularly well situated to do custom hatching, for people keeping a few hens will come personally with their eggs and also call for the chickens—just as they do in Egypt, by the way, except for the means of conveyance. The initial investment need not be large. One can start with a single machine and increase the size of his plant as business warrants. A little advertising by means of circulars, or better, in a newspaper, will bring the custom. It is first necessary, however, to learn all about running the incubator. It would be foolish to seek customers before becoming thoroughly familiar with artificial incubation and making several experimental hatchings. These can be made in the fall or winter. Along with custom hatching goes the sale of day-old chicks. This is another line which men and women in the country or elsewhere who have but little capital may begin in a small way and increase with their business. The two branches may well be combined also. If at any time there be a dearth of custom-hatching orders, the machines may be kept running just the same to fill orders for newly hatched chickens. For hatching chicks, a charge based on the number of eggs in an incubator tray is often made. If, for example, the tray may accommodate 75 eggs, the charge may be $2 and upwards. Just as much time and fuel are required for a dozen eggs as for 75. Of course, if the eggs to be hatched for several customers are received at the same time, they can be placed in the same machine, but it will be very difficult to decide to whom the chicks belong when they are out of the shells. If the hatcher is using single machines, it is wise to employ the smaller sizes. The machine which come in sections are most satisfactory, for they can be added to like sectional bookcases as one's business grows. Of course the custom hatcher takes no responsibility. He does his best, and if the eggs fall to hatch, the loss is the customer's. The hatcher has no means of knowing that they were fertile, even, until a test at the end of five days is made. Likewise, the hatcher runs no open accounts, if he is wise. A deposit should be made when the eggs are left, and the remainder paid when the chicks are delivered. Day-old chicks are best sold at a flat rate, say 15 cents apiece, with delivery charges added. Strongly made cardboard boxes especially designed for shipping chicks are manufactured and Fortunately for innocent noncombatants watermelons don't have very far to fall when they get ripe. Outside of being hopper a kangaroo has no more hops in its repertoire than a frog has. However, a kangaroo's hops are much more hoppish than those of a frog. The Bath (Me.) three-masted schooner Maud H. Dudley, which was built 32 years ago at a cost of $22,000, has recently been sold for $19,000, after having paid her first owner $51,464 in dividends. --- O doubt the man who paid $800 for a single hen, "tine," not long ago, a money back with libr. The phenomenal value lay in the fact that she completed the astonishment of producing 314 days. It is assumed the eny of Lady Eglantine, wonderful egg machine, reason her eggs will cost highest prices for her poses; as a matter of fact, they are at $5 apiece. To be safe, this is gamble, but hundreds of people will take the chance. You see, the call for all for heavy layers, for never has for eggs been so hard to meet. Sixteens are required to satisfy the American appetite each year. Egg farming has reached a point where it must be included among the big business interests of the country, and the coming of the parcel post has already given it added impetus. All over the country big plants are springing up, where chickens are hatched by the thousands and shipped far and wide. Other plants are being established for custom hatching, just about as chicks have been hatched in Egypt since the days of Moses. Over there the hatching is done in immense brick ovens, of which there are some six hundred, in which 125,000,000 chickens are incubated each season. Camel's dung is used for fuel, and the operators have such keen senses that they can keep secure at close to 103 degrees without a thermometer, which instrument is ployed. Custom hatching in this country is other matter, and has been made posi- tion the invention of incubators of the type, heated from a coal-burning requiring only a comparatively small attention. It is a line of work who wives and other women can follow and to which farmers themselves, as owners of large poultry plants, are attention.

For that reason, people who complain that the practice of withholding food is cruel are wasting their sympathes. To just what extent these new developments will revolutionize the poultry business of the country, no one can safely even guess. It is certain, though, that hundreds of people who formerly raised a few chicks each season with hen will now either send their hatching eggs to a customer hatchery or buy day-old chicks. The expense is but little greater and hours of fussing with broody hens are eliminated. People living in the cities may now keep hens in the back yard, for they will need no roosters and thus avoid the complaints of neighbors, and can keep breeds which do not get broody. One thing is certain, though. If the egg producers are going to make the most of their opportunities, many of them will have to reform their methods. The statement is made, apparently with authority, that there is an annual loss of $45,000,000 because of the improper handling of eggs. Much of this loss can be traced directly to the producers—the men and women on the farm. Such facts are responsible in part for the present much-discussed high cost of living. Many farmers let their eggs accumulate until they get a basketful, although it may take several weeks. Fertile and infertile eggs are dumped in the same lot. If a hidden nest is discovered, the old hen is shooed away and the half-incubated eggs are sold along with the others. This is the reason why the average market egg is unreliable. Incubation has begun in a fertile egg before it is laid. In a few days traces of the embryo may easily be discovered, even though the egg simply be kept in a warm room or allowed to remain in the sun. Ordinarily the germ soon perishes, and then the egg is quickly added to the rotten egg class. An infertile egg may be kept for many weeks without going bad, although it may get somewhat stale and consequently unfit for the table. Under the present system, the customer is protected to a large extent by the big egg merchants who examine the eggs which pass through their hands by means of a test known as candling. This candling is a highly important part of the business in most cities, and on the care and expertise with which the work is done depends the quality of the product which the customer secures. The men who candle eggs become remarkably expert—so expert that they can handle two eggs in each hand and grade them at a glance as they are passed quickly before a hole in a tin shade placed before a strong electric light. Eggs from flocks which contain no male bird except in the breeding season will keep longer and be better than those laid by hens with which a rooster is running. Many people still hold to the antiquated belief that hens lay better if attended by a rooster. This is a pure fallacy.

CHICKEN to keep pace with the supply—in fact, a little ahead of it, or it would not be found profitable to import eggs from China, as was done a year or two ago. All over the country mammoth poultry establishments are springing up. Not far from Chicago is a large plant made famous by its White Plymouth Rocks and White Indian Runners. There are 160 acres on this farm, and houses are scattered all over them. The man who owns this big plant sells much of his stock for breeding purposes, and values some of his birds as high as $5,000. That sounds like an unbelievable figure, to be sure, but the very lowest price for which one can buy a fowl at this farm is $5. The owner has made a fortune, is a bank director and a business man who can take rank with those who manage the big industries of the city. One thinks first of eggs in connection with the poultry business, but growing and fattening chickens for the table is almost as important a branch of it as egg farming. Formerly no one thought of specially preparing chickens for the slaughter. The farmer simply went out into the Not every poultryman can select a laying hen by her appearance. It is true students of poultry husbandry are generally able to do this, but few farmers and poultrymen are unless they have given the subject some attention. The following suggestions should be of help to you in enumerating some of the points in the making of a good laying hen. But these points will need to be verified. That is, you must practice if you would become a good judge or at least learn how to select your own pullets for layers. And it will be necessary for you to know how to select if you are to improve your flock. Judging poultry is said to be a finer art than the selection of other farm animals, but the man or woman who picks pullets with a fine head, alert eyes and comb, face and wattles of fine texture, has taken the first step toward increased egg production. Good pullets should stand square on their feet, with legs wide apart, with the front end of the body slightly higher than the posterior end, and with a long back and tail carried rather high. The body should be wedge-shaped, yielding ample room for the reproductive and digestive organs. How to get eggs in late fall and early winter when they are highest is a serious problem with most poultrymen. Taking it for granted that the pullets were hatched early and have made good growth during the summer season, we would get the entire flock of spring pullets, yearlings and all into winter quarters in September. That is, we would have the poultryhouse and yards put in order for winter then, so there will be no rearrangement to disturb the flock or in any way disarrange its daily routine or habits during late October, November and December, when we most desire the eggs. One of the principal factors for securing a high egg production in the poultry flock is exercise. A hen kept closely cooped will not lay as many eggs during a season; she will take on fat instead and become unhealthy. Give the hens plenty of range—and then get a larger basket in which to carry the eggs to market. Not many years ago this breed was little known to breeders. They have made rapid strides and are becoming very popular. The heavy Minorca combs, high tails, very dark legs and purple instead of black plumage have all been bred out and today the Black Leghorns are as good in slope as the other Leghorns. Their combs are equally as small and neat as the whites or browns. They carry their tails low and well spread. Their legs show a good yellow color together with a good green sheen to the plumage. Among many fanciers black is a desired color and among those admirers and fanciers the Black Leghorn, in many instances, is replacing its brown or white sister. They are persistent layers of large chalk-white eggs and there's no reason why they should lack popularity any longer. "LADY EGLANTINE" CHAMPION EGG LAYER OF THE WORLD cause broken eggs, although the point at issue is that fertile eggs are less desirable for table purposes than unfertile ones. One might imagine that with the tremendous extent of the egg business in this country, the market would be glutted. On the contrary, the demand seems keep pace with the supply—in fact, a little of it, or it would not be found profitable to eat eggs from China, as was done a year or so. Over the country mammoth poultry establishes are springing up. Not far from Chicago large plant made famous by its White Plymlocks and White Indian Runners. There are acres on this farm, and houses are scattered over them. The man who owns this big plant much of his stock for breeding purposes, and some of his birds as high as $5,000. But it is like an unbelievable figure, to be sure, that very lowest price for which one can buy a hat this farm is $5. The owner has made a sale, is a bank director and a business man take rank with those who manage the bigries of the city. He thinks first of eggs in connection with the busy business, but growing and fattening for the table is almost as important as a lot of it as egg farming. Formerly no one out of specially preparing chickens for the later. The farmer simply went out into the yard, selected a likely looking fowl, laid it on the block, and chopped off its head. Quite different is the process now, especially in the West and in Canada, where fattening poultry has developed into more of a fine art than in the eastern states. There is a difference of from three to seven cents a pound in the price paid for well-fleshed or fattened birds and that paid for poultry just off the range. As this means a difference of from 15 to 35 cents on a five-pound chicken, it is well worth while to fatten the fowls. POULTRY NOTES Selecting Pullets. every poultryman can select a laying hen or appearance. It is true students of poulushandry are generally able to do this, but farmers and poultrymen are unless they have the subject some attention. Following suggestions should be of help to an enumerating some of the points in the leg of a good laying hen. But these points need to be verified.

Home Town Helps Proper Placing of Trees and Shrubs Should Always Be Made an Important Consideration. Let your lawn centers remain open and clear that the whole yard may appear as large as possible; generous, yet well framed with plant shrubs and trees on all sides. If you must have a Phoenix Canariensis on a 40-foot lot, place it in the rear where it may also serve as a shade tree, though the same rules properly should obtain in the back yard as in the front yard. Better to use fan palms if you will have some, or the beautiful columnar cocos. Do not plant in the center or centers so that one or two large objects may alone be viewed by you, but frame your greensward or picture with shrubs, even trees, so that you will have a little privacy and sungness, a limited seclusion, so that you feel as though on your own property. This open-face, look-at-me type of gardening so prevalent is not at all conclusive to home life, and is founded not on generosity and unselfishness, but on false pride and a desire to "show off." Every true plant lover has at least a part of his grounds secluded; and somewhere on the premises may be found, if of sufficient extent, some suggestion of intricacy of design, without which no garden is very interesting or attractive unless in a spectacular sort of fashion, and the latter is debasing to the art. DEMAND FOR SHADE TREES Massachusetts Journal Recognizes the Value of Proper Adornment of the City's Streets. A real good hot summer day brings nome to Bridgeport the shame of shadeless streets. In this case it is a burning shame, and no mistake. We wonder what administration will develop the foresight and public spirit to take the steps necessary at the present for the assuring of shade trees for the future? Shade trees add to the value of property. They help to keep the city cool in summer. They conserve public health and comfort. They please the eye and are one of the greatest factors in the beautification of a city. People have an instinctive appreciation of trees—all the world knows that New Haven is a city of elms, and the most famous street in Germany is "Under den Linden." Poets have rhapsodized over trees, and Handel wrote his famous "Largo" in celebration of a plain tree, which afforded grateful shade to the composer. And the practical advantages of trees are equal to the esthetic advantages. But it is unnecessary to cite these facts, because practically everybody agrees. What is needed is the taking of definite steps to assure shade trees in the future and to counteract the lack of such a provision in the past.—Bridport (Mass.) Telegram. Wild Rose Hedge Wherever there is a wild rose helix it should be retained and encouraged. if the blossoms are of a good shade. Otherwise one should try to get in a more pleasing variety. Wild roses differ enormously in their color thus ranging all the way from very pale to a very deep and beautiful pink. Evidently there are a great many varieties among wild roses. There is a fixed belief that wild roses will not stand being picked. The writer one Sunday morning attended church in Minneapolis, where wild roses were twined in great profusion about the pillars and balconies of the church. They were there by the thousands and had been there for many hours. They retained their freshness throughout the day. The secret of their retaining freshness was that they had been gathered very early in the morning before sunrise and while covered with dew. Some varieties of wild roses seem to bloom till very late. The writer has picked wild roses as late as September, and in Cook county, too! Councilwoman at Work A fight against the unsightly, un sanitary and value wrecking billboards of Los Angeles has been reopened by Estelle Lawton Lindsey, councilwoman of that city. Mrs. Lindsey announced recently that she would at once renew the fight to bar the billboards from the residence districts and would ask the council to pass the ordinance barring them. This measure provides that the consent of a majority of the property owners in the same block must be obtained before a billboard may be erected in a residence district. The Chicago ordinance was the model for this Los Angeles bill and the supreme court of Illinois upheld the measure in Chicago, but the billboard posters appealed to the Supreme court of the United States and the case is still pending. Civic Co-operators Under the Chicago Industrial office plan, 2,500 persons have enrolled as civic co-operators, giving practical aid in civic helpfulness. It is said that not one instance of overofficiousness or meddlesome interference has been noted since the plan was inaugurated. Thwarted Elegance. "I tell you," said Farmer Cornton sel, "this military discipline is jest what my boy Josh needed." "They tell me his equipment wasn't much." "That's what I refer to.
