By MARTHA COBB SANFORD. Copyrighted, 1908, by Jessie Morgan. Young Mrs. Maxwell was In tears. All her happy plans were overturned, and Just because a faithless maid had failed to put In an appearance. It was only history domestic history repeat ing itself, but Mrs. Maxwell was too newly married to look upon the mis fortune In the light of anything but purely personal affliction. Her husband found her disconsolate ly stirring the cereal for breakfast. While the hot tears ran unheeded down her flushed cheeks. '. "Aren't you afraid the oatmeal will be a little too salty, sweetheart?" he asked Jovially, at the same time kiss ing away a few of the salty drops from ber eyelids. . "How can you Joke, Bob?" she gasp ed between sobs that now burst out afresh. "She she didn't come." "Who? Bridget? Well, never mind, dearest; that's a trick they all play. I don't care what we have for break fast." v "But Mr. Cabot does. Is he up yetr "Not Jack I ' He sleeps and sleeps on Sunday mornings. And he won't care If we skip breakfast altogether. You don't know him as well as I do, Norah. You see, I roomed with him two years when I was a bachelor. He's the best natured fellow living present company excepted. If he wasn't I would never have consented to this three cornered loving cup. Here, hand me a spoon, dear! I'll make the cof fee." : The "three cornered loving cup" was an arrangement by which the Max wells had agreed to let Bob's chum, Jack Cabot, share their cozy apartment and take breakfast with them, thus giving them the pleasure of using his piano and the luxury of keeping a maid. It had" seemed the rosiest scheme Imaginable, but behold it, on the very first morning after Jack's ar rival, shattered discouraglngly! In the midst of Bob and Norah'g Joint preparations for breakfast the doorbell rang unexpectedly. "She's come!" exclaimed Norah tri umphantly as she rushed breathlessly to the door. Bob stood on the kitchen threshold, listening. -' "Oh, It's you!" he heard Norah say In a tone of unmistakable disappoint ment. "Well, Is that all the welcome I get?" responded a cheery young voice. "I thought you were the cook," was Koran's half apologetic, half laughing reply. "Hello, Anne Morris!'' called Bob hos pitably from the kitchen. "Stay and have breakfast with us." "Breakfast!" returned Anne, pretend ing to be shocked. "Yon lazy, lazy people!. Why, I'm out for my morn- Inn constitutional. Boarder arrived?" he asked mischievously. Oh, yes," answered Norah resign edly. "Mr. Cabot's here, of course, but not a sign of the cook. "Look here," suggested Anne sud denly. "I'm a dandy cook and engage to get your breakfast on the spot" And without waiting for approval or invitation she began to toss off her coat and bat "Oh. dear!" said Norah flutteitagly, ttr. Pjihnt is coming. I heard his door onen. Hurry, Anner Once In the kitchen Anne rolled up her shirt waist sleeves ana arrayeo herself In one of Norah's comprehen sive gingham aprons. "Now, you both sklddoo!" she com manded. "Just leave everything to me. The idea of a bride and groom getting breakfast for a boarder!" Norah's erecting to "tha boarder when she reached the living room was moat cordial. "Good morning, Mr. Cabot yon slent weU apparently. Bob and I have been aO this long time.' "I hope yon didn't keep Dreanam waiting. Mrs. Maxweu. uia your maid not In an early appearance ?" "No; she didn't come come as eariy as I expected But DreaKraai is remuy now."

"Then I'm coming over to wait on the table every morning, " whispered Anne. -xou can't" objected Norah, "be cause on week days he breakfasts be fore we do. He has to start into town earlier than Bob does." "So much the better " giggled Anne. The arrangement worked out smooth ly enough for the next three mornings. Jack and Anne got on capitally to gether, but all in quite a discreet and proper way of course. On the fourth morning, however, as Anne tripped quietly out of the dining room after serving him, Jack looked up Just in time to catch her reflection In the sideboard mirror as she, uncon scious of this betrayal, blew him an audacious kiss from the tips of her fingers. It gave, Jack a thrill that somehow, for a little thing, upset the equilibrium of his workaday world to a most re markable degree. Nevertheless on the following day, for reasons best known to herself, Anne chose to be haughty. She neglected to bring him his cream for his coffee and the sirup for his waffles. He was obliged to ring foj: her several times. Each time she was haughtier than the last, and once, through that same transparent go-between, he distinctly saw her make up a face at him. It was such a comical little face that he nearly laughed out right But he checked himself and de cided to try a course of discipline in stead. 'Anne," he said, and his voice sound ed almost stern, "I want yon to dust the piano keys. You may do It now. They were so dusty last night it was agony to play on them." Anne stared at him a moment In un concealed astonishment, then flounced Into the kitchen. The next moment she flaunted back again, ostentatiously flapping a dust cloth. At the first awful discordant crash that followed close upon her disap pearance Jack gritted his teeth and held on to his chair. At the second he got up and walked determinedly Into the living room. "If you could, be a little more care ful," he suggested Icily. Anne shot him an Inscrutable look from the corner of her eye, sat down after a flourish of the piano stool and began to dash off a Chopin waits with a brilliancy of touch that left Jack speechless with astonishment After she had struck the last fortis simo chord she remained , motionless, ber hands resting on the keys. Jack came toward her until he stood looking down upon ber. "Who are you?" be asked finally, "girl or witch or goddess?" Anne covered ber blushing cheeks with her bands. Jack tried to take them downVagain, but she would not let him. "It makes no difference who you are, Anne," he said at length huskily. "You need not tell me. All that mat ters is that I love you, and all that '1 want to know Is do .you" But Anne had run away from him. She ran straight into Norah, who -was coming down the hall. "Why, Anne Morris r Norab exclaim ed. "What Is the matter?" For answer Anne pulled off ber min iature headgear and ber ruffled apron and said laconically, "Introduce me." Then Norah guessed and, holding Anne's hand in a tight little squeeze, went back with her to the living room. "Mr. Cabot," she began dramatically, forgetting to say good morning, "I want you to know my very dear friend, Anne Morris. Anne, this ia Mr. Jack Cabot, a bachelor friend of my bus band's. Oh," she added, stooping Just long enough to note the mingled con sternation and Joy upon Jack's counte nance, "I Just must go and tell Bob." "Tell him what?" flashed Anne. But Norah bad disappeared. "Can't you guess V pleaded Jack, holding out bis arms to ber. "Isn't It going to be true what Koran tens Bcr Anne let bis arms close about ber. "I'm awfully afraid I've spoiled you," whispered Anne roguishly. "Don't you worry about mat," langn- ed Jack.

SMITH, Arizona experiment station. Both seepage and evaporation from Irrigating ditches are prevented by olosed conduits. Cement pipe for small Irrigating ditches is from every point of view to be recommended It ia com posed largely of sand and gravel Sound In the vicinity of the ditches, and only the cement is subject to a freight charge. With a view to determining the best mixtures and the cost of cement pipe in the Santa Cms valley a molding outfit was secured and some expert- TAMPING THB OOKCBXTK, mental pipes were made. The size se lected was of fifteen Inches inside di ameter, and several lots of pipe were made. In the second cut is shown some of the pipe In lot No. 2. It was made of a mixture of one part cement to three and one-half parts unscreened arroyo sand There were ten two-foot lengths, each hard and strong, of perfect shape and representing a cost of only 384 cents per lineal foot The amount of cement used was five sacks. The fourth lot was made or a very lean mixture of cement Ume paste and sand. The replacement of a part of the -cement by lime was made for the double purpose of reducing the cost and obtaining a denser and more lin permeable pipe. Tha paste was thin nod to a consistency that permitted it to mix thoroughly with the sand, and the bell ends were made of a mixture of one part of cement to three parts of sand. The results were very satisfac tory. The fifth and sixth lota were made in another locality, and the sand and gravel" were of a different character from those used previously, so that screening was necessary. All above one-half Inch in size was rejected The first cut from a photograph, shows two tiles completed and two la borers tamping a third tile.

Much Barley Grown The Eariy Pound Catches the Profit By FRASER M'LAIN. We are shy on corn, wheat and oats, but not so on barley in this country. The barley crop Is rapidly growing In Importance. Prior to 1901 the largest crop ou record was that of 1885, tmountlng to 87,072,744 bushels. Since 1001 the production has regularly been increasing, rising in 1006 to 178,016,484 bushels, the highest figure thus far reached. For 1907 it is 2 per cent above the average In quantity, while the value Is extraordinary, about 85 per cent above the average. The quan tlty Is 147,102,000 bushels, the value $115,000,000. These are significant figures for the feeders. Barley ss a pork maker Is worth attention. It has not yet been relied upon much In the United States. Danish bacon, however, which figures so prominently incthe English markets. Is produced mainly with barley and dairy byproducts, and Canadians value barley highly for the production of prime export bacon. Ground barley Is an Important Item in the ration used by English beef producers for fatten ing cattle during fall and winter. Barley is also one of the good grams for sheep, and an authority on feed values has stated that where seven pounds of oats were required to make one pound of flesh only six of barley were required. How much of the increasing barley product goes for malting purposes here and abroad has perhaps not been de termined, but It looks as if pur feeders might be making more use of barley. ' Both barley and oats when cut in tho milk stage make fine bay. On the Pa cific coast outside of the alfalfa re gions, barley furnishes the main bay crop. In the east oat hay is somewhat used, but barley has the advantage that it can be sown very much later and is less subject to rust First Gains. The familiar statement that early gain on (be fattening animal are much more cheaply made than tha later ones 1 not often backed up with specific data. J. H. Grisdale of On tario, however, says he obtained the following average results in increasing the weight of steers: Cost per 100 lbs. Increase In live weight Steers from birth to months I2.M Steers from ( to 11 months 411 Steers from 1 to I years 1.4 Steers from tft to t years (.17 Steers from to 4 years 7.M First month gains with three-year- olds are not Infrequently made at aa low a cost as 4 cents per pound, while later gains with the same animal may cost from 15 to 20 cents per pound. A fairly regular gradation of cost according to age. Is shown by these figures that Is. the older the animal and the longer on feed the more ex pensive to make a pound of increase in weight LIVE STOCK MARKETS. Lew Priced Preduota Resulting From Sacrifices te Save Corn. live stock markets continue disap pointing to the producer who baa to market high priced feed In the form of relatively low priced products. Part of this Is due to liberal supplies of hogs and part to restricted consump tion. Cattle supplies are not suffi ciently in excess of previous years to account for the present price range on fat stock, while sheep receipts last month were the llghest since 1807, but bog have been marketed quite freely, and this without doubt has bad its effect on prices aU around. That con sumers are counting tb cost of meats more carefully than they did last year la evident from the amount of pork consumed and from other meat market condltlona. Many consumers are us ing more pork and less beef and mot- ton because It h) cheaper. Many are buying the cheaper cuts of beef who would hare none but the best last year. " This Is shown very clearly by the fact that these cut bsv advanced, while the best are selling for leas than they did a year ago. A to the future of the market, the am uncertainty prevails a at tne opening of the year. Then we were told that fst cattle would be scarce by Feb. 1, bat the famine baa not been manifest Then great confidence was expressed in tb late winter bog mar ket, bat plenty ef bogs are still com ing forward.

Washington, May 30, 1908. The currency question is, of course the one absorbing topic in political circles in Washington at the present hour, but the extravagance of the projects urged at this session of Con gress is coming in for its share ot the public attention. While the figures on the total appropriations for the present session are incomplete care ful estimates indicate that they will exceed $1,020,000,000. This amount exceeds that of any previous session by $100,000,000. There is no little adverse comment over the fact that the largest increases over former years are to be found in the pension, post office, army and navy appro priation bills, while the sums appro priated for educational purposes are small in no way commensurate with the relative importance of the pub lie's needs. It has been delicately hinted that every 110,000- spent by the Bureau of Education would bring a far richer return than every 1100,000 expended on the navy Democratic members of both houses of Congress are in favor of the campaign publicity bill, which has reoeivod added notoriety by Mr. Bryan's clever letter to Secretary Tail relating thereto. Both Mr. Bry an and Mr. Taft are on record as fa voring the bill "but whether the atti tude of these two men will have suf ficient weight with Congress to se cure the passage of a publicity bill remains to be seen. The opinion prevails that Republicans will see the advantage, politically, of going before the country with at least a profession of willingness to have the Presidential campaign financially conducted along lines that are open and above board, and will therefore pass some measure that will require publicity in the collection and ex penditure of national campaign funds. It is estimated that the Demo cratic Convention at Denver will cost Tammany at least 1115,000. Five special trains have been engag ed to carry 650 braves to the great powwow. The estimates are divid ed into two sums, $ 65,000 for trans portation and 150,000 to make a big show in Denver. More (ban two-thirds of the dele gates to the Democratic national convention have now been elected. Complete delegations were chosen last week in Alabama, California, Florida, Michigan, Mipsouri, 8outh Carolina, Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Hawaii and the District of Columbia. Four delegates-at-large were elected in Pennsylvania, Of the 172 delegates named in these States and Territories, Mr. Bryan received 159, wbils thirteen were not Instructed or committed. The call for the national conven tion fixed its membership at 1,002, the Philippines being excluded from representation. However, the Phil ippine delegates have been chosen and will apply for admission. Of ths 677 delegates so far elected, 481 ars Instructed for Mr. Bryan or committed to bis support by resolu tions of preference or public an nouncements; 22 are) for Johnson, 11 are for Gray and 63 uncommitt ed. Mr. Bryan has ths support of 71 per cent of the delegates so lair elected. Anti-Bryan People in Washington wereiubilant wben they read of Got. John A. Johnson's exploit in tbe swimming pool of the Hotel Chamberlin at Old Point Comfort, v w Va. His double somersaults, tbey declare, will help him tremendously with a people who have been train ed in tb last seven years to demand physical dexete.ity of their popular heroes. Tb greatest relief is felt through out political and social Washington that the currency bill ha paseed ths House. There is every expec tation that it will go through the 8natand that adjournment will b possible on Friday of this week.

' Washington is in the throes of a "mad dog" epidemic, produced largely, no doubt, by a recent death of a victim of rabies in New York. The authorities are endeavoring to circulate thein formation just issued by the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, in which, among other things, the notions entertained by the vast ma jority ot people aa to the habits and conduct of a dog supposed to be mad are shown to be wholly ialla cious. , Tbe trouble with most cough cures is that they constipate.
