EVIDENTLY SET HIM THINKING SHE PUT UP A GOOD FRONT
Reminiscences of Sharp-Voiced Woman
Woke Young Man to Possibiti-
tles of Situation.
“Clinrlea," said n sharp-voiced wom-
an t° her husband In the smoking
compartment, "do you know that you
and I once had a romance on a train?"
"Never heard of It,” replied Charles,
In a subdued tone.
“I thought you hadn’t, but don’t you
remember it was a pair of slippers I
presented to you the Christmas before
we were married that led to our union?
You remember how nicely they fitted,
don't you? Well, Charles, one day
when we were going to n picnic, you
had your feet upon a seat, nnd when
you weren't looking I took your meas-
ure. Hut for that pair of slippers I
don’t believe we’d ever have been mar-
ried.”
A young, unmarried man, sitting
near by with n girl, Immediately re-
moved his feet from the seat.
Long, Lorsg Ago.
“Did you give the waiter your or-
der?" “Yes, but I think he meuns
to keep it ns a souvenir.”
The man that makes a character
makes foes.—Young.
Misers get more out of the world
than they put into It.
But Privately Woman Admitted She
Had No Desire to Undergo the
Supreme Feminine Ordeal.
A screech emanated from the rear
room of one of those fancy tea houses
with which Columbus is so profusely
blessed. Patrons who were clustered
around the tallies looked up In as-
tonishment.
“Oh, It was a mouse. He walked
right under that tuble over there,”
said a young lady, her face flushed
from excitement.
“Don't he afraid of a little creature
like that,” said the woman who had
the place In charge, and who nt that
time was In the front of the estab-
lishment tying up a box of candy for
two young men.
“Y’es,” she snid in nn undertone to
the young men, unheard by the fright-
ened girl In the rear, who marveled
at her bravery, “but I wouldn’t like
to be back there myself.”—Columbus
Dispatch.
If the rural delivery Is at your door,
the city market Is there fur your small
produce, say specialists of the Pulled
States Department of Agriculture. \t
present many producers are neglect-
ing entirely this marketing medium nr
are not utilizing It t» the extent they
might. Wider use nf the pared post
for marketing eggs Is particularly ad-
visable fnr the small producer who
can easily and advantageously build
up a direct trade with the city. When
mure produce Is marketed directly
from the farm to the city there will
he less complaint on the part of the
producer that the prices he must sell
for are too low, and less on the part
nf the consumer that the prices he
pays are too high.
Sell Only First-Class Eggs,
ft !s preferable to produce Infertile
eggs for market, as fertile eggs de-
teriorate rapidly in warm weather and
are the cause of much loss. The eggs
should he gathered at least once a day
and stored In a well-ventilated place,
where they can be kept as cool as pos-
sible. As washing removes the muci-
laginous coating of eggs nnd opens tlm
pores of the shell, it should not he
practiced In the case of eggs Intended
for high-class trade. Soiled eggs
should be used at home or disposed of
otherwise than to u parcel-post cus-
tomer.
If there Is any doubt concerning the
freshness or quality of the eggs, they
should be candled, so that all eggs
showing any defect may he held at
'mine, say poultry specialists of the
rnltml States Department of Agricul-
ture. For parcel-post shipment It Is
essential that uniform containers and
a uniform pack should be used, as oth-
erwise the packages will not wear
well, nor will they look attractive and
appeal to the fancy trade. Further-
more, the containers should he stout
nnd durable, so as to make It worth
while to return them as “empties” for
subsequent use.
According to post office regulations,
eggs will be accepted for local deliv-
ery when they are so packed In a
basket or oilier container as to pre-
vent damage to other mall matter
l.ggs to be sent beyond the local office
life accepted for mailing, regardless of
distance, when each egg Is wrapped
separately and surrounded with ex-
celsior, cotton or other suitable mate
rial and packed In a strong container
ntade of double-faced, corrugated
pasteboard, metal, wood or other suit
able material mid wrapped so that
nothing eiin escape front the package
All such parcels must be labeled
"Kggs.” Eggs In parcels weighing
more than ’«’<• pounds are accepted for
mailing to offices in the llrst and sec-
ond zones when packed In crates
boxes, buckets or other containers
having tight bottoms to prevent the
escape of anything from the package
and so constructetl as properly to pro
teet the contents. Such packages must
lie marked "Kggs—Tills Side Up” ami
must be transported outside of mull
sacks or boxes.
It Is advisable that square block tis-
sue paper, which comes In packages nf
• *00 sheets each, soft wrapping paper,
or newspaper should he used around
each egg, as otherwise there Is a dan-
ger of breakage lu handling. Average
hens’ eggs will weigh about two
ounces apleee, or between two and
three pounds a dozen, w hen properly
packed for mailing In a carton. Most
parcels containing a dozen eggs will
exceed two pounds, but will not reach
three; therefore the postage on them
will he 7 cents within the first and
second zones, or I.TO-inlle limit. A
parcel containing two dozen eggs will
add, perhaps, 2 cent? to the postage,
though sometimes only 1 cent, depend-
ing on the character of the container
and wrapper.
Ship Large-Size Packages.
The larger the parcel, within tho
size and weight limits, the cheaper Is
the postage, as the llrst pound of every
package costs 5 cents within the first
nnd second zones, while each addition-
al pound, up to 00, costs hut 1 cent.

COMPOST HEAP MADE
FROM GARDEN WASTE
Organic Rubbish ol All Kinds
Especially Suitable.
Start by Laying Down Bed of Stable
Manure and Alternating With
Refuse Matter—Especially Val-
uable for Hotbeds.
Laziness is nn easily acquired art
Boil "Your Postum
fully fifteen minutes when you use
Postum Cereal
Then there results a drink of de-
licious flavor which many prefer
to coffee. Postum is more eco-
nomical and healthful than coffee
Another form, Instant Postum,
is made by adding hot water to
a teaspoonful in the cup. The
drink may- be made strong or
mild to suit individual taste
GROCERS EVERYWHERE SELL BOTH KINDS
Made by Postum Cereal Co. Inc, Battle Creek^Iich.
Garden waste, decayed vegetables,
deud vines, weeds, and the organic
rubbish that collects about the place
during a busy summer may be cleaned
up and put to work again through the
agency of a compost heap, say spe-
cialists of the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture. Start the heap
by laying down u lied of stable ma-
nure which has not been burned or
heated. The size of the plot will vary
with the amount of refuse to be used;
for ordinary uses, if the bed Is made
eight feet long by six feet wide and
two feet deep It will serve the pur-
pose. Over the manure spread a two-
foot layer of refuse and cover with
another layer of manure. This last
layer need be only a foot in thickness.
If It Is desired to add to the heap
from time to time the top layer may
be opened and the new material emp-
tied into the hole thus made. This Is
convenient for the suburban home
where there Is no animal to consume
the kitchen waste. In the spring the
heap Is well mixed with a fork and
the compost is ready to be spread on
the garden plot. The heating manure
will effectively destroy any weed seed
present and will also break down the
structure of most of the materials
that have been thrown upon the pile.
The process may be continued Indefi-
nitely by simply adding enough ma-
nure to Insure heating. Compost Is
especially valuable for use in hotbeds
and cold frames.
WEEDS ARE INJURIOUS
Weeds are Injurious to man in
the following ways: 1. They
crowd out the growing crop. 2.
They consume the moisture
necessary for u crop. !l. They
consume the mineral or other
food elements essential lo a
crop. 4. They pull down a crop.
5. They are Injurious because
they harbor Insects, tl. They
are injurious because they har-
bor purasltlc fungi. 7. They
Prevent the proper cultivation of
the soil. s. They may cause
conditions which breed diseases.
0. They may poison the soil.
TO. They stop drains. 11. They
poison animals and man.—Prof.

URGE TESTING OF SEED CORN
Even When Carefully Selected and
Stored It Should Be Tested Be-
fore Planting.
Even where seed corn has been
carefully gathered and stored It
should be thoroughly tested in the
spring before planting. The l>est way
to do this Is to make a seed corn test-
ing box and test 100 ears separately.
Each kernel that Is tested must he
perfect, and not Injured at the tip
lien It Is removed from the ear.
iiind-shelllng will give much fewer In-
jured tips than machine shelling, and
•should be used with all seed corn. If
three or more kernels out of ten from
any one ear fall to grow it will be
wise to test every ear In the entire
supply of seed. If the 100 tested ears
show no poor ones, further testing of
the supply Is unnecessary.
SLEUTHS* INTUITION AT FAULT
Investigation of Suitcase Convinced
Them That They Had Stumbled
On a Misleading Cue.
Two federal prohibition field agents
were seated In a train bound from
North Vernon to Imllnnapolls.
“Ah, lm!” exclaimed one, ns he
nudged his companion In the ribs.
"Look!”
The two thereupon watched an el-
derly colored couple. The man had a
suitcase which seemed heavy, and he
handled It gingerly as be placed It
under the seat. The agents studied
the situation nnd then decided to net.
“Excuse me,” said one of the agents
addressing the colored man, “we will
have to bother you to let us see what
you have In that sultcnse.”
"Yes, sir; yes, sir," came the re-
ply. "Help yourself.”
Expectantly the agents opened the
suitcase and peered within. It con-
tained six cans of home-preserved
fruit.—Indianapolis News.
Birds as friends of agriculture are
entitled to consideration from the
fnrmers. When the snows come the
birds find It difficult to make a liv-
ing. Crumbs and suet placed out-
doors may save bird lives.
PROPER CLUTCH LUBRICATION
Truck Operator Will Do Well to Use
Oil Recommended by Manu-
facturer of Vehicle.
One rule the truck operator will be
well advised to cling to as regards the
lubrication of the disk clutch, nnd
that Is always to use the brand of ol)
recommended by the maker of the
vehicle. The truck clutch shoulders
a heavy buaden at best and absolutely
correct lubrication Is essential to ef-
ficient operation of continued serv-
ice.
Birds' Nuptial Plumage.
Many birds have a plumage which
Is peculiar to the breeding season, and
which Is therefore called the nuptial
plumage. The egret, or white heron,
acquires during tlie period of court-
ship the exquisite plumes which have
very nearly led to their extermination
by man. Among other species, such as
ilie scarlet tanager and the bobolink,
the striking plumage of the male bird
Is replaced after the nesting season by
n suit of feathers much resembling
that of the Inconspicuous female.
Giving the Effect
A real light Is rarely hidden under
the proverbial bushel, but some keen
men keep a bushel to create the belief
that It conceals a light,—Albany

Wings to Help Out.

A man may lie quite generous anil
still heave a sigh every time he makes
