Uncle Rastus, though he promised faithfully to refrain from frequent dips into the flowing bowl, failed to live up to the colonel's expectations. On numerous occasions the colonel saw Rastus under the influence of 11' quor, but the darky when taken to task stoutly denied the accusation, affirm ing emphatically that he did not drink One evening the colonel met Uncle Rastus In a condition which made It plainly evident that the darky was "caught with the goods On." "Rastus," began the colonel, serious ly, "I though you told me that you had given up drink?" "Ah sho' did, Massa Ke'nol; ah sho' did," replied Rastus.

WHAT TO PLANT AND WHEN Advice by an Expert on Agricultural Matters Annual . and Perennial Flowers Profit In Bees Rale- l Ing Cucumbers. By PROF. JOHN WILLARD BOLTE. Annual flowers, that Is, flowers which are grown from seed and live only one season, are very useful for decorating the home grounds, filling window boxes, etc. They are no less hardy than perennials, and they are cheaper to plant and fully as satisfac tory in most ways, A moderate use of perennials serves as a fine foundation for a flower gar den, and by using annuals for the bal ance, we can have an unbroken series of blossoms throughout the season, and can also vary the arrangement from year to year. Choose your color . combinations with care so as to avoid having inhar monious colors blooming at the same time. Do not use mixed seeds unless you know what the colors are. Select and plant beds or borders of the same variety and color for best effect, con- trastlng them with other solid masses rather than mixtures. Exceedingly charming effects can be secured by mass plantings of coreop sis, poppies and many others of the simpler annual blossoms. Flowers which bear large clusters or sprays of bloom are effective In shady places and against walls. ,The lower growing varieties can be used for bordering beds of perennials, outlining vegetable gardens, walks, drives, etc. Wild flowers should be planted in Irregular groups in loca tlons as nearly like their natural ones as possible. Do not attempt to plant them In regular beds and geometrical forms If you would secure best results. Annuals may be planted as soon as the ground Is ready, and many varie ties may go In successfully quite late In the spring. For mass planting, the following are recommended: Scablosa, Balsam, Cal liposls, Coreopsis, Globe Amaranth, Poppies, Zinnias, Marigold, Snapdrag on, Amaranthus. Border Plants Sweet Alyssum, Mignonette, Pansies, Candytuft, Dwarf Nasturtium, Dwarf Snapdragon. Low Beds Clarkia, Phlox-Drum- mondl, Verbenas, Petunias. For late blooming background masses we can recommend: CASTOR OIL BEANS, COSMOS, SALVIA, AND SUNFLOWER. For Annual Vines: CLIMBING NASTURTIUM, LOBELIA, SCARLET RUNNER, WILD CUCUM BER, MORNING GLORT, CYPRESS VINE and best of all flowers, the Sweet Pea. Plant lots of annuals this year. They cost little and they make the whole world happier. The Busy Bee. There Is no domestic animal or fowl that pays us as big dividends as the honey bee. She works tor noth ing, boards herself, supports her queen and the royal male harem, fer tilizes the blossoms for miles around, and frequently furbishes us with enough honey In one year to buy the entire hive, bees and all, twice over. Hives of bees are frequently kept In targe cities, as well as In the country. We have seen a number of hives on roofs of buildings, etc., where the own ers had no other space available, and the bees will do just as well there as on the ground provided the hives are shaded from the hot sun. Your success In keeping bees de pends upon one main factor, and that Is the food supply. They gather their food In the form of nectar and pollen from all sorts of blossoms. The nec tar Is eaten by the bee, undergoes cer tain changes, and is stored in the comb as finished honey. The pollen is treated in a somewhat similar man ner, and is worked over into bee bread with which the young are fed. A fairly constant succession of flowering plants must be available for your bees, and there must be enough of these flowers so that the bees can gather more honey than they need. Remember that you don't get any honey until the bees have all they need. You get the' surplus only. Before you buy a hive of bees look over the territory within a radius of a mile and size up the feeding possi bilities. If there are considerable amounts of clover you are safe. Sweet clover, fruit trees and bushes, bass wood and mustard, buckwheat and flax are heavy honey bearers. Of course, ornamental flowers do their share, but they are of much less importance. ' If you find plenty of feed without too much competition from other bee keepers, your next step is to secure a good standard beehive witb a 'strong colony of Italian bees and a tested Ital ian queen. The eight frame Langstroth hive is an excellent one for the begin ner. While your bees might be se cured cheaper from some farmer, it is easier to have them come right in the blve at the start. The complete out fit will cost about 1S. Most people can handle Italian bees without the slightest danger of getting stung, after a little practice. Before then, it is well to use a bee veil and tie your sleeves tightly. . Your colony will Increase from one to five hundred per cent, each year, and each colony will produce from fifteen to a hundreds pounds of honey, depending upon the season. ' It will not take ten minutes a week to care for them, but you must spend a lot more time than that watching them, as they are most interesting in 'their habits. Cueurrbors. One of the most satisfactory vege tables for the mu.: rrden Is the cu c -riber. It is easy to grow, bears pro f snd almost everyone likes It. I ft t"n plar- rnpr!y tondfd ' :( f t f t V will be lota of surplus cucumbers to pickle, as well. They ara planted by seed as soon as the spring weather is reasonably settled and the first edible cucumbers may be counted on about ninety days after planting. ' ' The first Important consideration Is the soil. Cucumbers, like all of the cucurbitaoeae, love a light mellow soil and a sunny location. They belong to a semi-tropical desert class of plants and sunshine Is much mora Important than water, although both are necessary. The soil immediately adjacent to the seed hill should ne ver? rich with well-rotted compost or manure. An excellent plan is to dig out the soil to a depth of elghteei Inches and fill ' In with compost and richer soli. A fine mixture is one part wood ashes, two parts sand, one part manure and two parts rotted sod or black loam. , ' - Where space is unimportant, plant the seeds in hills six or eight feet apart; twelve seeds to the hill. Plant an lnchdeep and firmly cover the seeds. If desired, a box frame may be placed about each hill and a pane of glass fitted over It. This will force the growth and enables one to plant a month earlier than is otherwise pos sible. It will also protect the plants from the striped beetle, but care must be taken that the glass is raised when the sun is hot, or trouble will result Where used with late plantings and for protection from bugs only, it is better to replace the glass with cotton cloth. Remove the boxes as soon ss the plants send out, runners and thin out to the four sturdiest plants in each hill. Tbe striped beetle is the only serious pest and must be guarded against. It attacks the young plants at the. ground line just before they run. If boxing Is not resorted to, it is a good plan .to keep the plants and the surrounding ground sprinkled with powdered white hellebore. An other old-fashioned remedy is a thin plaster of cow manure over both plants and soil. Do not thin out any plants until danger from bugs Is past. The usual plan is to let the vines grow over the ground at their own sweet will. The better way, espe cially for the small city garden. Is to train them up on a trellis or, wood and wire framework. This saves ground and improves tbe fruit as the sun gets a better chance and the vines are not crushed In gathering the cucumbers. Cut off yellow leaves with sharp shears and always cut the fruit off Instead of pulling or twist ing it Frequent applications of liquid ma nure to the roots will work wonders and this practice cannot be too highly recommended for all tbe later garden plants. White Spine and Long Green are excellent American varieties. PLAN FOR FATTENING GEESE Fowls Do Remarkably Well on Quite Poor Soil, Finding 8ome Animal or Vegetable Food, Goose keeping Is a branch that should appeal especially to those who have plenty of land available. . It is a mistake to attempt to keep either breeding stock or goslings up on a very limited area. An English writer says that upon hundreds of farms scattered up and down tbe country, there is a good deal of land which does not pay to cultivate, and which is only used as an occasional sheep walk. On such geese do remarkably well, as. however poor the soil, they are al ways able to find some animal or vege table food therein. Besides . they quickly make a great difference in the quality-of the soil over which they roam. To fatten young geese, place them in a pen not too large, so that they will not exercise too much, and feed three times a day all they will eat np clean.'. : good fattening formula is corn meal mixed to a dry crumbly state, and beef scraps amounting to 20 per cent, of the bulk of the corn meal. ' While fattening young geese they should be kept as quiet as possible; no excitement whatever should dis turb them. When feeding approach them quietly and do not Irritate them in tbe least, or they will not ratten, but instead, grow another crop of feathers, . ; -.; .:' . At ten weeks of age, or when the tips of the wings reach the tall, they are ready for market, " and should weigh between eight and ten pounds. -Chinese Paper Money. Paper money la said to have had its origin in China in the year 806, when the government issued it to relieve a financial .. stringency, receiving coin In return, which enabled it to pay off outstanding obligations. . In tbe mu seum of St. John's college in Shanghai is a paper bill worth 1,000 cash, the equivalent of SO cents American money, which was Issued by the first Ming Emperor (Hung-wu A. D. 1368 1399). It is nearly two feet long and one foot wide, - printed on . mulberry bark paper, and is a dark slate color. Argonaut. ' Oats for Hog Feed. , Oats as a hog feed has never been very popular for two reasons. First, the price is Usually too high; and, seeond, the feeding value is not so great per pound for hogs as that of corn.' When the price declines so that the .cost per pound Is less than corn the attention of bog raisers Is Immediately attracted to its feeding value. - Fixing Their Relatione.

' 1 1 1 " BAD I WOLD-UP It Was Only for Moving Pictures. but Passengers Thought It Real Thing. By FRANK FIL80N. 'The journey across the desert is not a distracting one, and any diver sion Is gladly welcomed, so that. When the flashily dressed man stood up at the end of the Pullman and be gan to address tbe passengers, every body went forward and gathered around him, laughing and clapping. They thought he was going to offer something for sale. '" However, he had nothing to sell. He had a favor to ask,' he said, and so everybody became silent and listened attentively. "Ladles and gentlemen," began the flashily dressed man, "I am going to repeat to you what I have just said to the passengers in the next coach. When we reach Bad Water, in ten minutes or so, a moving picture man will be upon the platform to take some pictures representing a hold-up. Some of. the performers, dressed as bandits, will attack the mall car, while others will go through the coaches, de manding your money and valuables. But please do not be alarmed. Tbe whole proceeding will be in panto mime, and if you will make a show of compliance, and so aid us, nobody will be. annoyed. I ask of you, fellow-pas sengers, to feign alarm, and if one or two of the ladles will pretend to faint it will help things along." Everybody began laughing and eagerly awaited the stop at Bad Wa ter. This was the fourth day of the trans-continental journey, and the pas sengers were on very good terms with one another. They began to discuss train robberies. 'I'd never give up a cent," exclaim ed a stout, perspiring drummer, wip ing the alkali dust from his features Not for all the train robbers in Call' fornla. No, slrree, and don't mistake me. I'd duck their pistols and hit out once or twice and then well, there wouldn't be any train robbers." 'Well, as for me, I know I should just faint," answered a demure young lady. "And before I fainted I'd just hand over everything I had." 'Not with me around, you wouldn't need to," answered the drummer gal lantly. The other travelers did not commit themselves, for at that moment the "Hands Up, You 8llly 8heep!" . train began to slow down and there appeared the irrigation ditch from which the station took its nameVThen the little tin-roofed shanty came into view, and a moment later a half doz en men, wearing sombreros and mask ed, with pistols stuck all around their waist lines, leaped forward across the tracks. One jumped Into the engine cab and held bis pistol to the fore head of the engineer. The mall van was' next attacked, while two men made their way Into the foremost of the coaches. Upon the platform a moving picture operator had set up bis Instrument and was busily reeling off the film, tbe passengers. Interested ' in .the scene, gathered around htm. - Now, ladles, now, gentlemen," In terposed the flashily dressed man In tones of remonstrance, . "won't you please go back into the coaches and be robbed T You're Interfering with the operator. It spoils the reality of the pictures, - your standing round here as though nothing had happened. People will think tbe picture's a fake, and it's going to be exhibited la all the leading cities of America. , Won't yougobackT". ' J Two or three did turn back toward the coaches In a half-hearted way, but the rest remained obdurate, and tbe flashily dressed man ran here and there among them, remonstrating and pleading. His requests, however, fell on deaf ears. It was much pleasanter outside In the fresh air than within, and, besides, all wanted to see the whole proceedings. At hist, in ; des pair, the flashily dressed man threw np his hands and disappeared inside one of the coaches. ; Almost simultaneously a pistol shot rang out, followed by a woman's scream for help. The heads of the spectators turned round with a simul taneous movement and their features betrayed an, expression of sudden fear. . "You told me It was fun," shrieked a woman's voice. "I won't give you my rings. I won't, I tell you. There, take them, then. And that's every penny I have in the world." "It's Big Ike and bis gang," some body screamed. It's real enough! My God, It's all reair Then the flashily dressed man came dashing ont of his coach, a smoking pistol in his hand. He was followed by two of tbe gang. "Hands up, you silly sheep!" he yell ed. "Hands up or I Are. Now, then, back into the cars. One at a time, please. Youll keep themabove 'your heads while Ike roes through you." aeep, be bad c&"ed them, and like ster-p they obeyed. The first to do . ": v Kijr so waa the commercial traveler. There was a look of terror on his red face, and he held his arms erect as ram tods. . ' Only one traveler remained upon the platform, 1 It Was the demure young lady who had been discussing her course of action In the event of real hold-up. Instead of fainting she stamped her foot violently and actual ly shook her fist in the flashily dressed man's face. 1 "I won't put my hands up and I won't give you a cent And I've got ninety dollars Inside my waist and I defy you to take It, you coward. There!" Upon the platform the operator was still grinding off his films. The flash ily dressed man approached the young lady, took off his hat, and made her bow. . . t ' Maaam, you are tbe only man among the lot," he said. "Pray keep your money as a tribute to your cour age!" ' Tbe passengers had all filed In when tbe wheels of the train began to move. The flashily dressed man caught the young lady by the arm and swung her aboard. Inside the travel ers stood huddled together, but there has no bandit to receive their cash. me flashily dressed man stood on cne step ana leered at them. v "Sorry to frighten you all, ladles and gents," he said. "If you'd obliged me as I asked of you to do, I wouldn't have had to scare you. We ain't ba dits; we're just, moving picture peo ple; but we had to get the picture and as you wouldn't help us why, we just bad to help ourselves. Good-bye." And as the train was now In motion he leaped to the ground and stood smiling at them. When they had resumed their places there was quite a long silence. Then the drummer spoke. 'I knew It wasn't real." he said. "If I'd thought It was I'd have acted dlf ferent." ' tie smiled at the demure young lady. But she was reading a text book on the Montessort method of teaching the young, and she never looked up at him between Bad Water and San Francisco. (Copyright. 191S. by W. Q. Chapman.) RURAL TEACHERS' PAY SMALL Average Pay Is Less Than That Re ceived by 8treet Laborers In Cities. The statisticians tell us that the av erage salary of the teachers of the nation In the common schools is less than $400 a year, and in the rural school districts less than $300, tbe Hon. David Franklin Houston, secre tary of agriculture, writes In Leslie's. Illinois reports rural salaries ranging from $250 to $400; Kansas, a salary of less than $250; Missouri, Mississippi and Tennessee, one of less than $250; Vermont, Maine and North Carolina, one of less than $200. In urban com munities it ranges from $500 to $600 to $1,800 or $2,000 or more. Tbe an nual compensation of rural teachers Is less than thai of street laborers In -cities, less than that of bricklayers, plas terers, carpenters, plainters and brake men, and tbe superintendent of Ala bama reports that in that state it is less than the average earnings of con victs. : Everywhere these teacbers are stranded In one room buildings, for tbe most part unsightly, devoid of the ordinary comforts, lacking in facili ties, In unattractive and Insanitary surroundings, they teach all grades and hold 30 to 35 or 40 recitations a day for tour, five, six or seven months a year, and do this without advice or assistance from competent supervisors or inspectors. , Illinois reports 10,600 one teacher schools, 1,150 of them hav ing less than 15 pupils; Kansas, 7,800, 425 with less than 16 pupils, 300 with less than 10; North Carolina, more than 4,000 out of a total of 5,400; Indiana reports 1,085 schools with less than 15 pupils, and 2,000 with less than 20;, Missouri, 705 with less than 12, and 2,500 with less than 20. When the people know the facts and are intelligently led they will face the situation, provide the means and will regard the expenditure for develop mental purposes . not as a burden, but as an investment They must put more money Into this business of rural education to save what they have already put in to make good what they -have undertaken. As peo ple of ordinary business sense, they must recognize the necessity of ef ficiency of production. A nation which is spending $700,000,000 a year on war, past and future, $800,000,000 for tobacco, and $1,600,000,000 for whisky cannot make the plea of poverty and cannot afford to say that it will stop at an expenditure of $330,000,0000 fof schools.

Huge Animals, Thought to Ba Extinct Are Found on Isolated Island of i ' Guadalupe by Party' Headed by Dr. C. H. Townsand. , New York. Naturalists all over the world are greatly Interested just now In a beach some 400 yards long by $0 In width on the isolated island of Gaudalape. Here on this remote and uninhabited Island, lying In tbe Pacific ocean, 140 miles off the northern part of the peninsula of Lower California, has been discovered tbe only rookery loft and the last standhold on the western continent of the northern ele phant seal. This Is the largest of all seals, long since thought to have, dls peared, and likewise one of the most remarkable marine mammals existing today. Aside from its great size, 16 feet and more, the chief feature of Interest of these animals is' centered In the strange appearance of the head, caused by elephant-like trunk or snout, meas uring In the adult males nearly a foot or more In length. The rediscovery of this, the only herd of northern ele phant seals living today, was made by Dr. Charles H. Townsend, who com manded an expedition on the United States Fisheries Steamship Albatross to Lower California to study the fish ery resources and to obtain specimens of this region. Being valuable for, its oil, the ele phant seal waa killed in large num bers for commercial purposes until It was thought to be practically extinct The oil is worth about 60 cents a gal lon. A 16-foot elephant seal is said to yield from 200 to 250 gallons of oil. The colony of seals found by Dr, Townsend was scattered In family groups along tbe beach, and watched the landing party in their boats with apparent Indifference. The herd con sisted chiefly of large males, females, yearling and new-born pups. A num ber of adult females were surrounded by newly-born young, and the Indica tions were that the breeding season was just commencing at this time of year, which was March, and therefore It was thought that other adult fe males would arrive later. The seals had little fear of man, which afforded unusual opportunities for securing close-range photographs showing them In their various atti tudes. Unless actually teased by the members of the party the old animals did not attempt to leave the beach, Great' 8eal of Guadalupe. and many of them did not raise their heads from the sand until closely ap proached, although wide awake.' When driven from a comfortable resting place they would soon settle down, and, after throwing sand on their backs with their front flippers, become quiet again. Both young and old have the habit of covering themselves with sand when settling down to rest. The females, although but little molested, appeared to be even more passive than the males. - Some of the large males after being driven Into the sea soon returned. The most striking and remarkable feature of this animal, and from which It takes Its name, is a curious elongat ed trunk or snout which attains a length equal to the remainder of the head. This thick and heavy append age has a length of ten inches or more forward from the canine teeth and is fibrous and fleshy throughout When fully expanded it exhibits three bulg ing transverse folds on top separated by deep grooves. The , trunk Is not capable of Inflation, but is retracted Into Heavy fdlds on top of the head by muscular action; This snout is some what protruslble, but when not elongated hangs in a pendulous fash- Ion over the mouth; when sleeping It rests , upon the sands, a shapeless mass.''-.

T., Oct 1. 1911 1 waa troubled with two or three pimples coming out on my chin, in a week or so my whole face was covered with them. Friends advised me to use dif ferent lotions and. salves. I tried them, but they did me little good, if any. I finally washed the pimples with Res inol Soap and applied Reslnol Oint ment before going to bed. In the morn Ins I found the swelling gone down. and the inflammation gone from tha pimples. I tried . thlc treatment for about a week, and found that most of the pimples had disappeared. I kept the treatment up for about a month, and then my face was clear of all pimples. I have used Reslnol Soap since and find that the pimples do sot come back." (Signed) Walter A.
