Mrs. H. (reudiug aloud)—On «
count of Kit. Who on earth la this
Kitty, Jack?
Mr. H. (foolishly trying to joke with
highly strung woman)—Why, that's
Dne of the $40,000 chorus girls. I used
(o know her before I met you and re-
formed.
Mrs. H. (excitedly)—You don't mean
it, Jack, do you ? You don't know any
of those horrid creatures; tell me
you were just trying to plague me.
Mr. H. (soothingly)—Of course I
« as joking. Don't get so excited, my
dear. You fly up like a sky-rocket.
I never knew any choruB girls.
Mrs. H.-You did, too. Mrs. Medlar
told me so the other day, and she
knew you before you ever saw me.
She says you used to be a regular
rounder, Jack.
Mr. H. (energetically)—D Mrs.
Medler and her continued meddling. If
any woman were ever well named,
it's she.
Mrs. H.—Now, don't get profane,
Jack. There's no need of losing your
temper about it. I'm beginning to be-
lieve you know some girl in the troupe
and that's where you got those compll-
mentaries.
Mr. H. (impatiently)—I told you I
was only fooling. Besides, chorus girls
don't have tickets to give away. They
never give away anything. But be-
lieve whatever that gossiping old hen
tells you. I don't know that it makes
much difference.
Mrs. H. (on the verge of tears)—
Why, Jack, how can you say such hor-
rid things to me! Of course, it makes
all the difference In the world. You
know if 1 really did believe it I'd go
back to mother to-morrow.
Mr. H. (thoroughly exasperated)—
Well, that would be pleasanter for me
than having your mother come here.
(The Highly Strung Woman begins to
weep. At the same time the maid
ushers in Mrs. Medlar, who ha8 run in
from the flat below.)
Mrs. H.—Emily!
Mr. H.—D—n!
Mrs. M.—Why, Edith, what on
earth—
Mrs. H. (tearfully)—Jack'a been
cross to me again, that's all. I sup-
pose I ought to get used to it. but
I can't.
Mr. H.—Nothing of the kind, Mrs.
Medlar. I told ber something in
fun, and now she Insists on believing
it, after I've explained it was only a
Joke.
Mrs. M. (putting her arm around the
Highly Strung Woman)—What waa It
all about, dear?
Mr. H. (Irr-'ably)—I don't aee the
necessity for rehearsing our little
ramily squabbles before every caller.
I'm going to dress for the theater.

Edith?

Iter bead on the Sympathetic Friend's
shoulder and weeps copiously. Tho
Average Man knocks lightly on the
door, and enters attired In a dress
suit).
Mr. II. (after an awkward pause).
Well, Edith, have you come to your
senses yet?
Mrs. H.—N-no, and I'm not coming
to—I mean, I'm not going to see any
of your old college friends.
Mr. H. (aside in great disgust).«-
What foolishness! (Aloud,: Come.
dear, don't make such a spectacle of
yourself. Your nose is getting all red
and blotched.
Mrs. M. (under her breath)—What a
monster!
Mr. H. (hearing the remark)—Mrs.
Medlar (by name and disposition), I
think perhaps I had better make an
explanation, since you have brought
this little misunderstanding of ours
to such a climax. It all began by
the wording of that pnsa, which I see
you have appropriated. Merely In
fun I said It was given to me by a cro
rus girl I used to know. Now, com-
mon sense ought to teach any woman
that If such had been the case I
wouldn't have told my wife. The Kit
on that card is the abbreviation for
Frank Kitson, press representative for
the Hollis. You know him yourself,
Mrs. Medlar, and you also know that
he and I have been friends for years.
Now, I don't want to be inhospitable,
but I think Edith and I can settle this
better if we are alone for a few min-
utes.
Mrs. M. (highly indignant)—Mr.
Hornung, you will never have the op-
portunity of insulting me in this flat
again. I will tell my husband what
you have said this very night. Good-
by, Edith, dear.
(The Sympathetic Friend stalks out
of the room. The Highly 8trung
Woman throws her arms around the
Average Man in a moist but affection-
ate embrace.)
Mrs. H.—You were right, dear, it
was all her fault. She stirred me up,
as she always does, and she Is a med-
dling old thing. But you ought to
have told me in the first place that
Kit wasn't a Kitty. Oh heavens!

it opened and he floated gracefully to
ibe ground.
Sorenson got the Idea that the same
principle could be worked In connec-
tion with a flying machine. He built
a machine on much the same plan as
the Wright aeroplane. He Inflated
sis big balloon, tied the machine to It
with an attachment similar to that
jsed with parachutes and gave the
Signal to let go the balloon.
It shot up rapidly, and when about
5,500 feet above the earth he cut loose
with the automatic knife. He expected
that it would float, that he could guide
it at will and ride safely to the ground
jpon it. He guessed wrong.
In making the ascent he had to pull
the machine up in a different position
?rom that which It was expected to
take when floating in the air. The
moment before it left the earth the
rnd of the machine thrashed upoa
the ground and the rudder and hou-
sings were broken.
He had three parallel bars running
the length of the machine. One of
them he straddled and the others were
foot rests. Before he could reach the
levers it was necessary for the ma*
ihine to right Itself. Thla It did after
it bad dropped a few hundred feet,
but when he got hold of the levers
he found they would not work. He
realized in an Instant what had hap-
pened, but he was helpless.
A moment later the machine began
"Let us not forget," said Daniel
Webster, "that the cultivation of the
earth is the most important labor of
man. Unstable is the future of a
country which has lost its taste for
agriculture. If there Is one lesson of
history that is unmistakable, it is that
national strength Ilea very near the
Boll."
Be sure the hogs have fresh water
and shade. Hogs will do well and
make satisfactory growth with but lit-
tle grain if they can range in the stub-
ble fields after harvest. They will
soon pay the cost of fencing. But
a poor hog fence Is an aJwminatioQ
and In the end will prove more ex-
pensive than one properly built. The
corner and gate posts must be solidly
set or no end of trouble will ensue.
Careful feeding is better for the
stock and better for the farmer, for It
makes a profit for him at both ends,
saving the food and bringing better
gnlna In the stock.
To keep the cloth wet which you
place over the milk or water bottle to

No trees in the pasture? Then
make shade for the cows by putting
up some posts and throwing over
them a thatched roof. It la a shame
to keep the cows under the hot raya

Millet is considered a valuable crop
by many farmers familiar with its
growth for the following reasons:
First, it may be grown as a catch crop
where some other crop has failed, or
on Kind that has been too wet for
early sowing. Second, it may be
grown as a crop for smothering weeds,
where those perennial in character,'
as quack grass, infest the land. For
this purpose it Is very effective when
the land has been properly managed
prior to the sowing of the millet.
Third, it may be made to provide hay
In emergency when hay may be short
from other sources. Fourth, it may
be made to furnish grain that proves
a good substitute for corn where corn
may not be a sure crop. Fifth, It is
a sure crop, when properly managed,
as it can be matured for seed in less
than 90 days from sowing; for hay
In less than 80 days.
Two ways of curing clover hay la
first to let It got well wilted, cock It
up tn small heaps, let It sweat over
night, stir It out In the sun next day,
then haul to tho mow before It gets'
really dry ao the leaves shatter off.
The second way is to cut when the
dew is well off, follow with a tedder
and rake up and haul in the barn as
soon as dry enough so It will rattle
when handled with the fork.
Extensive farming and dairying
don't go together. It takea small
farms and Intensive dairying to make
good dairymen. Just as long then as
the average farmer wants to own all
the land that Joins him, and under-
takes to farm it all, he isn't going to
pay m.£h attention of take much in-
terest iu dairying. Occasionally there
will be a farmer who appreclatea What
dairying means to hla Boil, to his fam-
ily and to bis posterity, and he will
be Interested in dairying. He will be
a dairyman, and of all the farmers in
his community he will be the most
successful.
Perhaps It would be safe to say that
a majority of the farmers who keep
cows for milk production guess at
what their cows cost them, and what
profit they return. Not so the dairy-
men of Denmark, who follow pretty
closely the following scale of expense:
