Roost and Dro.Dlaara Board Flxtara. A simple device to economize space ana labor Is described by James Hady of Indiana in Reliable Poultry Journal. Mr. Rady says: The roosts' are ten feet long, 'three In number, and made of 2 by 2 Inch hard pine with the corners rounded. They rest upon 2 by 1 Inch atrip three feet six Inches long, the back ends of which are hinged to the wall of the house. These are suDDorted In front by uprights of the same dimen sions, also three feet six Inches long, nd are fastened to them with one bolt so as to make a swing Joint. The platform or droppings board la also ten feet long and two feet nine Inches wide, set with Its back edge nine Inches from the wall and standing nine Inches from the Boor. The cleats upon the underside of this platform, which support and bold It together, are hinged at the rear to the side of FOIiDINO BOOST AND KiaTVOBIC. the building In the same manner aa the roost supports. At the front they are fastened to the uprights with the swing Joint fastenings described a bore. Two V shaped troughs, each live feet long, are placed on the . floor against the wall under the rear of the drop pings board. To the middle of the roost farthest from the wall Is attached a half Inch rope, which la passed through a pulley on the wall above and furnished with ring at Its other end. By grasping this ring the roosts and platform are pulled up and folded back against the wall, where they are out of the way, and no birds can roost upon it in the daytime. The ring may be slipped over a hook screwed to tne underside of the platform to hold the fixture in place. The platform is sprinkled each even ing with sawdust and slaked lime, so that when It Is raised In the morning the droppings slide off Into the troughs and are easily removed. This fixture folded up leaves the en tire door free from incumbrance for a scratching room. The cost of making is not heavy and the labor of cleaning la somewhat reduced. HEROISM IN ANIMALS, It la Hot Move Uncommon Tham la Brat Bfateraal Affretloa. A writer on natural history complains that men are prone to regard mascu line courage in defense of others aa a virtue purely human. In reality self sacrifice for the female sex or for the young Is part of the scheme of nature, and every male thing is strong and splendid in appearance because be ia the descendant of those who have proudly held and guarded "the privi lege of death." Another writer tells a story which illustrates this point Two entomologists,' hunting at night, clam bered over a gate with their -swinging lanterns and found themselves in a field filled with sheep. The result of their coming was panic and a furious stam pede. The sheep charged belter skelter away from the lanterns and huddled to gether at the far end of the field. BuJ there was a ram among them, and aa the flock scurried away this creators stood firm, Covering the retreat Then, steadily and majestically, the huge ram advanced with lowered bead toward the mysterious lights and pressed them back to the gate. This Is only one graphic story of many that might be told of masculine courage throughout nature. Man has some virtues which animals, so far as we can Judge, know nothing about; but heroism the pride of affording protection to the weak and daring death for the security of the flock Is not a human attrnrat alone, any more than ia maternal af fection. . ' A WOMAN'S NAME. , Oriel a at the Caateat of Caesar It Wsea Bfea Harries. The eustom which makes It proper for the wife to assume the name of her husband at marriage is Involved in much obscurity. A recent authority advances the opinion that it originated from a Hnuo custom and became common af er the Roman occupation of England. Thus Julia and Octavta, married to Pompey and Cicero, wi ealled by the Romans Julia of Pom pey and Octavla of Cicero, and In later times the married women of most Eu ropean countries signed their names in the same way, but omitted the "of." In spite of this theory it la a fact that aa late as the sixteenth and the be- arinnins? of the seventeenth century a Catherine rarr signed bar name with out any change, though ana naa oeee twice married.

Why should the law prescribe "the Tuesday next after the first Monday In November" Instead of saying "the first Tuesday T" Like many other small things this provision Introduces an In teresting picture of the past Although the constitution requires the electors In all the states to meet and choose a president on the same day, it was not until 1845 that a law waa passed by congress providing that the electors should be chosen on tha lame day throughout the United States. When William Henry Harrison was the Whig candidate, in 1840, New Vork began to vote on tha first Monday In November, and the polls were kept pen until Wednesday night . Election day in Massachusetts was the second Monday, but before that day, In this Instance, enough states had voted to de cide the contest The National Intelli gencer of that year records that several thousand aged and Infirm Whigs In Massachusetts did not bother to go to the polls. Delaware voted a day later than Massachusetts. Illinois, Indiana and Pennsylvania were among the early voting states. Alabama waa one of the last This diversity, combined with slow methods of transmitting news, left the election results in doubt for many days. The system was not satisfactory. The states that voted early had an undue influence on the result Especially waa this true as communication became more rapid, and by 1840 an enthusiastic editor told how tha news from Pitta burg bad been brought to New York in thirty-five hoars. "This," he added significantly, "la a sign of the times." Congress accordingly decided to es tablish a uniform day. The original bill named the first Tuesday in No vember, but It was found necessary to harmonize this with the requirement that not more than thirty days should elapse before the meeting of the elect oral colleges In the different states, which hnd been set for the first Wednesday In December. When Tues day Is the first day of November, De cember will have no We'.'.nesdny till the seventh. The Interval Is thirty seven days. Under tlie law ns It was passed In 1815 not more than twenty nine days can elapse between election day and the first Wednesday In De cember. Under tbe law of 18S7 the electors do not meet to give their votes until the second Monday In January. Tooth's Companion. POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

F.. with a telephone celver at his ear and bis eye on the clock that ticked loudly near by. Over head flew bis kite bearing his recelv lng wire. It waa 12:80 o'clock on tha American side of the ocean, and Mar coni had ordered bis operator in faroff Poldhu, 2,000 watery miles away, to begin signaling tbe letter 8 three dots of the Morse code, three flashes of the bluish sparks at that corresponding nour. For six years he bad been look ing forward to and working for that moment the final test of all bta ef fort and the beginning of a new tri umph. He sat waiting to hear three small sounds, the br-br-br of the Morse code 8, bumming on the dtajmragm of bis receiver, tbe signature of the ether wanes that bad traveled 2,000 miles to Ma oatenlng ear. Aa the hand of the clock, whose ticking aldne broke tha stillness of the room, reached thirty minutes past 12 tbe receiver at the Inventor's ear began to hum, br-br-br, as distinctly as tbe sharp rap of a pen cil on a table. Tbe unmistakable note of the ether vibrations sounded in the telephone receiver. Tha telephone re ceiver was used Instead of the usual recorder on account of its superior sen sitiveness. Transatlantic wireless telegraphy waa an accomplished fact From "Storlea of Inventors," by RusselLDoubleday. THE PORTABLE WATCH. it Waa PvakaMr BHvat Heed la the Btsteeath Caatarr. There la uncertainty aa to when tbe portable watch, aa we understand It to day, came Into use. It waa probably at tbe close of tbe sixteenth century. Queen Elizabeth owned a large num ber of watches. Mary, queen of Scots, was the possessor of a skull shaped watch. Id fact the "death' head" pattern, was at that time mucfc In vogue. Endless were the styles, for there were watches shaped like books, pears, butterflies and tulips. The Nuremberg egg was a special shape and was first made in 1600. Those queer shapes of watches prevented their finding a place In the pocket When was tbe fob first used In the drees of man? The German of fob la "fuppe." and It Is believed that It cams from England through tbe Puritans, "whose dislike for display may have Induced tbem to conceal tbeir time keeper from the public gas." This conjecture Is strengthened by the fact that a short fob chain attached to watch of Oliver Cromwell in the Brit ish museum Is In point of date the first appendage of tbe kind known. Tbe watch Is a small oval on In a silver case and was made about 1628 by John Mldnall of Fleet street ORIGIN OF PARISHES. Thar Wore Feeaded la M ar Arehalshee ef Ceateawjr.
