Give the calf plenty to eat and It
will grow to be a thrifty, well-devel-
oped animal. Scrimp It and It will
be undersized and scrawny, writes
Francis E. Poison in an exchange.
If the calf pasture is grown up to
burdocks and thistles, and other pas-
turage is not at band, place some nice
bright clover hay In a manger where
It can be got at conveniently, and see
how much of It a bunch of healthy
youngsters will make away with.
Feeding milk may seem like a very
simple thing to do, yet It requires
brains to feed a calf Its milk and do It
right. Irregularity of temperature and
of quantity work havoc with the sen-
sitive stomach of s young calf, about
as quickly as anything I know of. The
milk should be blood-warm and the
quantity regulated according to age.
Over-feeding Is as dangerous during
the first few weeks as under-feeding.
If not more so. Begin with two quarts
and gradually Increase as the calf
grows older.
The advisability of giving grain de-
pends upon circumstances. While It
Is safe to say that wheat bran, oil
meal or oats will give added growth
and general tlirlftlness of appearance,
still good calves hare been raised
without them. I believe It always
pays to push any young animal as fast
as consistent with healthy growth,
not forgetting that the dairy bred calf
should not become too fat. Good,
thrifty growth should be striven for
from the first, but not a carcass fit
for veal. It Is not a smooth, beefy
outline, but the strong and muscular
one, which Is most to be desired In a
dairy calf. Pleuty of nitrogenous food
will secure it.

non-committal, and after a time Win-
ton began to upbraid himself for sus-
pecting the ulterior motive. By no
word or hint did the vice president
refer to the stri-ggie pendent between
the two companies or to the warlike
incident of the morning. And when
he finally rose to excuse himself on a
letter-writing plea, his leave-taking
was that of the genial host reluctant
to part company with his guest,
‘T’ve enjoyed your conve’satlon,
eeh; enjoyed U right much. Most
happy to have had the pleasure of
your company, Mlsteh Wlnton. May I
hope you will faveh ua often while
we are neighbors?"
Wlnton rose, made the proper ac-
knowledgments. and would have
crossed the compartment to make his
adieux to Mrs. Carteret. But at that
moment Virginia, taking advantage of
Adams’ handshaking with the Rajah,
came between.
"You re not going yet, are you, Mr.
Wlnton? Don’t hurry. If you are
dying to smoke a pipe, as Mr. Adams
says you are, we can go out on the
platform. It Isn’t too cold, is it?”
Not the words themse’.ves, but uer
manner of saying them, warmed him
eo suddenly that an Arctic winter’s
night would not have been prohib-
itory.
"It Is clear and frosty, a beautiful
night," he hastened to say. "May I
help you with your coat?"
She suffered him, but In the height
of the heart-warming glow gave him
cold douche in a word to Bessie.
"Won’t you come, too, Bessie, dear?”
she aeked; and Wlnton set the whole
battery of his will at work to fend
off the threatened calamity.
Happily, It averted Itself. Miss Bes-
sie was quite comfortable as she was
and begged to be excused. Mrs. Car-
teret In her capacity of chaperon
looked askance at V lrgtnta, was met
by a glance of the resolute brown eyes
which she had come to obey without
fully understanding, and contented
herself viw a monitory: “Don’t stay
out too long, Virginia. It la dreadful-
ly cold."
So presently Wlnton had his heart’s
desire, which was to be alone with
Virginia; alone, we say, though the
privacy of the square railed platform
was that of the ear only. For the
gathering-room of the Rosemary, with
Its lights and eyes, gave directly upon
the rear platform through the two
full-length windows and the glass
door.
Now In whatsoever aspect the moun-
tain skyland presents Itself—and Its
aspects are numberless—that of
starlit winter night, when the heaven-
lights burn clear In a black dome for
which the mighty peaks themselves
are the visible supports, Is not the
least Impressive. So, for a little
time, awe challenging awe In these
two had much in common, tongue and
lip were silent, and when they spoke
It was of the Immensities.
"Does your profession often open
such wide doors to you, Mr. Wlnton?”
It gave him an exquisite thrill to
know that her mood marched so even-
ly with his own.
"Outside of the office work, which
I have always evaded when I could,
the doors are all pretty wide. One
year I was on the Mexican boundary
survey—you can picture those silent
nights In the desert. Another time
1 was with tho Geodetic on the coast;
since that winter the booming of the
surf has been the constant undertone
for me In all music."
"Ah, yes. In music. You must love
music If you can associate It with
this.”
“I do. Indeed. I would build It the
grandest of tho temples, though I
should be only a mute lay-worshiper
In It myself.”
She smiled. “That temple must al-
ways have two high priests, one who
prophesies and one who Interprets. I
can’t play without a sympathetic lis-
tener."
"I wish you might play for me
Bomettme. You would have to he very
exacting If you could find fault with
tny appreciation.”
"Would I? But we are riding away
cm my hobby after we had fairly
mounted yours.”
He laughed. “Mine is only a heavy
cart horse, not fit for riding.” he said.
"You shouldn’t say that It Is a
man’s work—yours.” And he made
sure there was u note of regret In her
voice when she added: * No woman
can ever share it with you, or help
you In It.”
"I should be sorry to believe that,”
he rejoined, quickly. "The best part
of any man’s work may be shared by
the woman who wills—-and daree."
She gave him a tutting glance of
intelligence.
"How strangely chance whips us
about from post to pillar. Two even-
ings ago I was foolish enough to—
well, you know what I did. And now
we have changed places and you are
telling me what a woman may do—If
•he dare."
Oa>
mere matter of dollars and cents, you
may say." . .
She went on, entirely missing the
Irony In his reply.
"You did not know the difficulties
before you came here?”
"Only In a general way. I knew
there waa opposition, and well, I m
not Just a novice in this sort of .thing,
and If I may be allowed to boast a
little. I knew my appointment was
owing to Mr. Callowell’s belief in my
ability to carry It through.”
"You are not smoking," she said.
"Haven't you your pipe?" She was
finding It desperately hard to go on.
"If you don’t mind,” he returned;
but when he had pipe and tobacco In
band she plunged again.
"You say your Interest In this Other
railroad—your personal Interest—Is
only that of—of an employe. If you
should have another offer, from some
other company—”
He smiled. "Put yourself In my
place. Miss Virginia. What would
you do?”
She tried to think It out, and In
the process the doubt grew and over-
whelmed her.
"I—I don't know," she faltered.
"If, as you say. It Is only a question
of so much money to be earned—1
He started as If she struck him
with a whip.
"That Is not your argument; It Is
Mr. Darrah's." Then his voice took
a deeper tone that thrilled her till
she wanted to cry out. “Don’t say
you want me to give up; please don’t
say that. I think I have been putting

thanked you for your timely hint of

"The telegram? Mr. Adams sent
that. And besides. It was meant to be
n scolding.”
“I have no doubt Adams sent the
wire, but be didn’t write It. Or, If
he did, he also wrote our Invitation
to dinner. They are In the same
hand, you know.”
She laughed again. "I think it Is
quite time we were going la,” ahe
averred, and be opened the door for
her. .
If Mr. John Wlnton. C. E.. stood In
need of a moral tonic, as Adams had
bo ’delicately intimated to Miss Bessie
Carteret, it waa administered in
quantity sufficient before he slept on
the night of dlnner-glvlngs.
For a clear-eyed Technologlan, free
from all heart-trammellngs and able
to grasp the unsentimental fact, the
enemy’s new plan of campaign wrote
Itself quite legibly. With his pick
and choice among the time-killing ex-
pedients the Rajah could scarcely
have found one more to his purpose
than the private car Rosemary, In-
cluding In Its passenger list a Miss
Virginia Carteret. There would be
more dinners and social diversions;
other procrastinations like this of
neglecting to look after the consign-
ment of steel—which, by the by, was
not yet to be seen or even definitely
heard from; and In the end, defeat.
All of which Adams, substituting
friendly frankness for the disciplinary
traditions of the service, set forth In
good Bostonian English for the benefit
and behoof of his chief, and was an-
swered according to hla deserts with
scofflngs and derldlngs.
“I wasn’t born yesterday, Morty,
and I’m not so desperately asinine as
you seem to think,” was the besotted
one’s summing up. “I know the
Rajah doesn’t split hairs In a busi-
ness fight, but he is hardly unscrupu-
lous enough to use Miss Carteret as
a cat’s-paw.”
But Adams would not be scoffed
aside.
"You’re off In your estimate of Mr.
Darrah, Jack, ’way off. I know the

The brown eyes met his fairly, and
It was not Mr. Somerville Darrah s

how impossible It would be for you

the sentence In the air, began again.

He was still looking into her eyes,

Is all chivalry when It comes to
matter touching his womankind, and
I don’t controvert It as a general
proposition. But the Rajah has been
a fighting western railroad magnate
so long that Ms accent is about the
only southern asset he has retained.
If I’m any good at guessing, he will
stick at nothing to gain his end.”
Wlnton admitted the Impeachment
without prejudice to hls own point of
view.
"Perhaps you are right. But fore-

TOO MUCH FOR OSLER

11-
When the Maharajah Oaekwar
Baroda visited the congressional
brary In Washington he was naturally
greatly interested in that vast and
excellent collection of books.
“How long,” he asked Herbert Put-
nam, "would it take a man to read all
these books?” Mr. Putnam smilingly
replied that no one could ever begin
to read all the books In the library,
some 2,000,000 In number. Then he made
a rough ralculatlon. He told the ma-
harajah that It had been estimated that
no man, In the course of the average
lifetime of 70 years, could read more
than 8.000 books. Therefore, figuring
on 3,000,000 In the library of congress,
a man would have to have 360 life-
times of 70 years each to get through
with all of the books, and that would
mean 17,600 yean.
The computation seemed to amuse
the prince. "And what would your
Dr. Osier say to that?" he Inquired.—

process is costly, ad If alcohol la

cotton or flannel cloth only a little
of the liquid should be used. Put on

face, then should follow a brisk rub
with a soft silk or cheesecloth rag.
