"Thank you," said the tall woman, Beating herself in the vacant space; "that was very polite of you." "No," replied the boy, "it wasn't politeness; there's chewing gum all over the darned seat." Valuable Beetle Now. Not long ago a Washington scient ist, an enthusiastic student of natural history, captured a fine specimen of beetle. On reaching home he, in a moment of haste, pinned the beetle to a library table with his diamond ecarfpin. When he returned to the library from his dinner, he found the captive had got locae and was flying about with the diamond pin glistening from his back. Man and bug made a rush for tAe window at the same instant, says Harper's Weekly. The beetle got there first and triumphantly sailed away, barely eluding the scientist's hand. Neither bug nor pin has since been seen. Loss an Illusion. James C. McReynolds, who inves tigated the tobacco trust for the gov ernment, thereby bringing on a lot of things, says that just after he started practicing law in a small town down in Tennessee, a few years ago, a stout billsman came into his office one day and announced that h desired to sue a neighbor for $10,000 damages. "Two years ago," he stated, "he called me a hippopotamus." "Tmo years ago!" echoed McRey nolds. "Why didn't you sue hia Booner?" "Well, suh," said the injured party, "until that there circus come through here last week I thought all the time he was paying me a compliment."

Other Prefer Pole Limas on Ac count of Quality, Quantity and Season of Profitable Bearing Also Large. A writer says that both bush and lima beans are more satisfactory and easier to grow than the pole limas. Now, every one for his choice, but we prefer the pole limas every time for quality, quantity and long season of profitable bearing, says a writer in an exchange. It is true that setting poles for plants to vine on requires more work than when no poles are used, but the results more than pay for all the work. The trouble with most of us in our gardening and farm ing is that w try to grow things in the easiest way, but the easiest way is seldom the best way. We should never be satisfied with anything short of the best. Pole lima beans are the largest and best beans grown. Make the soil as loose and rich and fine as possible. Harrow, disk and harrow till the sur face is a smooth, fine and mellow as an ash heap. Lay off rows, both ways, about four feet apart and plant three seeds to the hill at the crossing of the rows. Cultivate young lima beans as for other garden plants, keeping the sur face clean, fine and level. Allow no weeds to grow close to the cultivated plants, as limas will not thrive in the presence of strange company. Some people to reduce labor plant corn or ' sunflower in the same hill with pole lima beans for the vines to climb. This is a grave mistake, for two good plants cannot grow in a place where there is room enough for only one. A Vs. Hamper of Pole Lima Beans. poor bean crop always results from this method, as one good, old, gar dener puts it, "It is the lazy man's way of gardening." We pole our beans with round poles about eight feet long and the thick ness of one's wrist. They are set one pole to each hill and the four poles form a square brought together and tied with common binder twine, about nine feet from the ground. This gives a wigwam frame with firm, broad base and so substantial that no ordinary storm will blow It over. Almost all other members of the bean family are quick maturing plants and the life of the crop covers only a part of the growing season. Not so with pole lima beans; they are rather slow growing. It requires nearly ninety days for the vines to fully mature and come into heavy bearing. But after the vines begin to bear they continue to produce blos soms and fruit all through the re mainder of the growing season, so long as the green beans are regularly picked and more allowed to ripen, providing there Is sufficient moisture in the soil to sustain growth. Keep ing out all weeds and grass and keep ing the. surface raked loose and fine will help to conserve soil moisture at dry times. A light soverlng of straw on the surface will also help to con serve soil moisture during August and September, when rains are often infrequent and evaporation great. ADVANTAGES OF DAIRY FARM Increases Productivity of Soil, In sures Monthly Income and Even Distributes Labor. Prof. F. L.. Kent, of the dairy hus bandry department of the Oregon Agricultural college, states as follows the advantages cf dairy farming la the Oregon Countryman, a monthly magazine published by the students at O. A. C: "Briefly stated, the advantages of dairy farming are: Increasing pro ductivity of the soil, a regular month ly income putting the business on a cash baBls, a better distribution of the labor of the farm than Is pos sible under a single crop system, and supplying a product for the market, all of which should be of the highest grade and for which there Is always a ready sale. , Building Dairy Herd. Get a purebred dairy sire and raise your own cows. til jL tx- -I S- " Air BEGINNING WITH THE SHEEP No Profit Can Reasonably Be Expected Until One Has Learned All th Little Detail. "The love of money is the root 01 all evil." It lures men Into things that prove disastrous. The greater the profits, the more certain that a large number will fall in the undertaking. Why? Because when profits are large men are sure to rush in on a big scale, says a writer In an exchange. Two hundred per cent profit on one sheer is big. Then why not get BOO or 1,000 sheep and get rich quickly? That's the argument that traps everybody who has a get-rich-quick bee in hia hat Remember this, that no man can succeed with sheep who has not first learned how. Big profits do not com Yearling Full-Blood Karakul Ewe. to greenhorns. There may be no pro fit at all for a year or so. Sheep are the most helpless of all domestic ani mals. They "don't know enough to come in out of the rain." They don't know much of anything. They have been cared for so attentively for cen turies that they quit making any effort to care for themselves. The man who is not willing to give them this care is unfit to be a sheep man. It re quires gentleness, for they are meek and helpless. Our advice is to go slow with sheep. By all means, raise Bheep. They should be on every farm. But start with a few, one or two dozen at most, and learn how to care for them. They will multiply as fast as your skill in sheep raising will warrant If you can't save the lambs, then you are unfit for a larger number. If you can save them you soon have the large number. A dozen sheep will show you all the holes in the fences as com pletely as 500 will. Prices are alluring, but keep a level head. There is no telling anyway, be cause they benefit the farm whether prices are up or down. RATIONS FOR DAIRY CALVES Little Bloodmeal Frequently Recom mended as Preventive and Cur for Calf Scours. That while linseed meal sometimes gives very excellent results, yet on the whole other preparations are to be pre ferred, says Hoard's Dairyman. Corn, barley, oats and bran are recommend ed for this purpose. With the young calf a mixture of low grade flour, sieved ground oats, cornmeal or lin seed oil meal made into a jelly by boiling, continuing such feed for two or three weeks, while the stomach is small and incapable of utilizing coarsor feeds, is suggested. As Boon as possible, however, change to whole corn or whole oats with or without a little oil meal fed dry. Among other mixtures proposed is one consisting of 20 pounds of corn meal, 20 pounds of oatmeal, 20 pounds of oilmeal, 10 pounds of bloodmeal, 5 pounds of bonemeal. Change to corn, oats and bran when calves are three months old. A little of the bloodmeal as a part of the dairy ra tion is very frequently recommended. It seems to have in some way a tonic effect, and is also claimed to be both a preventive and a cure for calf scours. Straw and hay make good nesting material. Keep your breeders healthy and do ing well. On the farm you should keep util ity uppermost. Shade for the chickens Is very im portant in hot weather. No one can foretell the sex of the chicks while still in the egg. Keep the egg pan In the coolest place you can find about the farm. May-hatched chicks, properly grown, make profitable fowls the coming win ter. Sickness and lice are scarce articles where poultry quarters are kept dry and clean. Begin early to work up a trade in broilers. The market never will be overstocked. The working hours of the poultry man extend from early till late; there are no holidays. As a rule hens that lay steadily during cold weather are indifferent hot weather layers. Little chicks need a feeding coop where they can eat in peace away from the older fowls. Hardiness does not go by color of plumage. Hardiness depends upon the care given to fowls. All eggs should be tested by the seventh day, which often makes It pos sible to reset some of the hens. . A quiet gentle hen with the mother inBtlnct strongly developed, is worth money in the chicken business. If your flock is properly managed and cared for there will be little or no use of medicines and tonics. So many sat too many eggs under a hen. Few hens can cover more than 15. and then only in warm weather. ROM women's eyes thia doc trine I derive.

Chocolate sauce served with rice is not a common way of serving the sauce, but it is enjoyed by many. There is no sauce that seems quite so good with the plain cottage pud ding, which is a simple cake baked In a thick layer and cut in squares to serve, as the lemon or vinegar sauce. Take a cupful of sugar and mix with It thoroughly, two tablespoonfuls of flour, add a cup of boiling water and two or three tablespoonfuls of vinegar, the amount depending upon its strength. Lemon juice and a bit of the rind is still nicer; vcook until smooth, then add a tablespoonful of butter and a half teaspoon of grated nutmeg. Maple sauce is a sweet sauce that many enjoy with the cottage pudding. It is made by using either the sugar or syrup. Pour the boiling hot syrup over the well beaten white of an egg, and when well beaten add a half cup of whipped cream. Strawberry Sauce. This Is .a de licious sauce to serve with angel food baked in a sheet and served as a pudding. Cream half a cup of butter and add gradually a cup of powdered sugar; when Smooth add two-thirds of a cup of berries, one at a time, beating until all are added, i Any kind of fruit juice thickened with corn starch well cooked and then made rich by the addition of a little butter, makes a very desirable sauce for many puddings. Caramel Sauce. Put a cup of sugar into a frying pan, stir constantly unUl melted and a light brown in color, being careful not to let It get too brown, as it will taste scorched. Then add three-fourths of a cup of boiling hot water and a tablespoonful of but ter and flour well mixed, cook four minutes. Hard Sauce. Beat until creamy a half cup of butter, add gradually a cup of powdered sugar, add the well beaten whites of two eggs and flavor with the juice of a lemon or with vanilla. Whipped cream (a half cup) will take the place of the eggs and make a richer sauce. Put in a cold place until needed.

Mutton Juice or extract Is obtained as is beef juice or extract One way Is to broil a piece of meat on both sides, then cut in flne'pieces and press out the juice in a ricer or lemon squeezer. Mutton Broth. Wipe three pounds of mutton, remove the skin and fat and cut the meat into one-inch pieces. Put into a kettle with the bones, cover with cold water. Heat gradually to the boiling point and season with salt and pepper if allowed. Cook slowly until the meat is tender, strain, cool, remove the fat. Reheat and add oat meal, barley or rice, three tablespoon fuls will be sufficient for two quarts of broth. Mutton Chop In Paper Bag. A de licious and dainty bit of meat may be prepared for an Invalid by broiling or roasting a chop In a paper bag or a piece of letter paper folded to hold In the steam and juices. Grease the paper before putting in the chop. Season and serve piping hot. Montana Steak. Chop a pound of lean mutton free from bone, add a beaten egg, a half cup of milk, a tea spoonful of salt, pepper and a tea spoonful of onion juice, make in the form of small cakes and broil. Broiled Loin Chops. Remove the superfluous fat and roll the flank around the tenderloin, fastening with akewers. Place the chops on the broilerVgreased with mutton fat. Cook from six to eight minutes, turning frequently. Serve with lemon juice and parsley. If the meat needs fat a little butter may be added before the lemon juice. FROM THE GINGER JAR.

Secretary of Extension Department Moody BibU Institute, Chicago TEXT And he said unto him, what is thy name? And he said, Jacob. Genesis S2::27. The Bible Is an honest book; it does not hide any thing when it tells us the story of a man's life; and this very characteristic is one of the evi dences of the di vine origin and in- spiratlon of the book; an unin spired man would have left out the dark pages' and dark places. Jacob was a wonderful character and God intend ed him for a great work, although to accomplish his purpose he had hard work with this one of the leaders of the Jewish race. To understand this character requires and Invites pro found study, and as a result we shall not be inclined to throw stones at him. How much he is like ourselves. His fallings appeal to us and comfort us; his aspirations speak to us and cheer us in our own efforts; 'his sor rcws bring comfort in our own times of bereavement and separation. If ever you are discouraged qr down hearted, take courage. The God who wrought wonders in , Jacob and in Simon Peter can do as much for you, if he can have his way with you. The chapter in which the text Is found is a great chapter in the life of this unusual man, and marks a crisis in his temporal career and in his spiritual experience; and the lat ter was of far more importance, for God was making this man a new head of the race which he had designated as his own. There are three im portant scenes in the chapter. Morn ing, when the angel host met him; afternoon, when he received news that Easau was coming to meet him and this news stirred him to fear and brought him to prayer; and night, when . he was alone with God and there wrestled a man with him. In these scenes the temporal and spir itual life of Jacob begin anew, and two lessons stand out clearly : First God demands spiritual men for spir itual work; second, surrender to God is the only but the necessary condi tion to this spiritual life. At the end of the struggle we read that God blessed him there. The Touch. "And when he Baw that he prevail ed not against him he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him." Just where Jacob considers himself the strongest there God put his finger and brings his strength to naught; it is only when we are weak that we are really strong;' It is just when God has put his finger on our place of resistance that the way is open for blessing, power and usefulness. It is a differ ent place and a different experience with each one of us. God brings pain and sorrow, shame and confusion, or loss and grief, as the case may be. In a thousand different ways he seeks to make us like unto himself; but at the end he accomplishes his purposes and causes us to rejoice in him. His touch always takes away the power to wrestle, but not always the desire; but may it do that for you, and do it now. The Question. "What is thy name?" And he told the truth; let us give this wily man all credit for that. A few days ago he would have said it and .with pride but now with confession and confu sion: "And he said, Jacob." God asks you that question; I pray you, tell him the truth. You may hide your real name and character from men, but not from God. Be honest with him. It may bring shame, confusion, tears, but tell him that you thought you were so and so, but now at close grips with God you know you are only Jacob. "Vile and full of sin I am, thou are full of grace and truth." God's great est difficulty is our own lack of hon esty, want of fairness, and failure to give up everything except a claim on the righteousness of Jesus Christ. The Result. "And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob (Suplanter), but Israel: for as a prince hast thou pow er with God and with men, and hast prevailed. . . . And he blessed him there. . . . And the sun rose upon him." Three gracious results followed this remarkable experience I A new name or character, a new pow er, and a new experience; no wonder Jacob called the name of the place Penlel, "For I have met God face 'to face." And he blessed him there. May all these blessings be yours. God has made such promise to you. Rev. 2:17 and 3:12. Close with God ere you finish reading this sentence; the only way to these blessings is by the way of f elf-surrender. But when you take that step then God undertakes for you. "Thou canst overcome this heart of mine Thou wilt ylctorious prove; For everlasting strength is thine, And everlasting1 love." t y 1 L 'J Pimples-Boil 13 are danger siarriali heed the warning1 la time.
