IT is difficult to say what constitutes
the beauty ofa woman. The Sandwich
Islanders estimate women by their weight.
Chinese require them to have detormed
feet and black teeth a girl must be tat

satisfy South Sea Islander. African
princes require their brides to have their
teeth filed like those OF saw. And thus
goes the world, the criterion differing ac-

said that California is only new begin

She may have heretofore been Il wonder

sun, and her gold fields have certainly
proved reality that would vie with
the ancient land of Ophir, but as yet
the wonders within her borders, the
grandeur Of her scenery and the sslu
brity of her climate, have not become
thoroughly understood and appreciated.

but they certainly do not develop in
bone, and do not take on any flesh-a
good illustration of how an animal can
exist on diet approximating to moth
ing. When calves are fed on whey the
result is pretty much the same. They
do not develop in bone from the time
they are fed on whey, and are always
in low flesh. They look matured, and
usually have paunches out of all pro-
portion to the rest of the body. They
sometimes scour as long as their whey
diet continues, and this is, of course,
injurious The paunch of whey-fed
calf is its one prominent feature. They
learn early to eat grass, and it is the
easiest possible task to wean whey-fed
calf
There is another method of feeding
calves that is productive of good results.
They are fed until they are from three
to four months old on sour milk, and
then weaned. There is no attempt to
force an extra growth, and the calves
being kept in good grass learn to eat it
before they are old enough to wean.
Sometimes they are fed grain before

full each is sufficient, and they do not
feel the. loss of milk when they are
weaned. The object should be to keep
the calves growing when deprived of
milk and afterward; there must be no
check to their growth during the first
summer. Not being forced to make an
extra growth on milk alone, accustomed
to eat grass and being fed little grain,
the change from milk to grass is easy.
During the last week or ten days the al
lowance of milk should be diminished
gradually, and in a short time after
they are deprived entirely of milk they
will cease to look for it. Calves which
are fed more milk will possibly attain
greater growth, but it is much more
difficult to wean them, for they require
some time to become accustomed to
grass, and will stand around the feed
ing trough for days. Calves that have
become early accustomed to eating
grass and grain do much better through
the winter, and come out in spring

records of the world were intelligibly
written it would be found that ugly lit
tie women have been the heroines, the
helpmeets of the heroes. 1t is the
function of beauty to get men into
trouble. Helen of Troy, Cleopatra,
Mary Queen of Scots, and hundreds of
others, wherever they came they
brought calamity. Beauty and anguish
have walked hand in hand the down
ward slope to death, and whenever the
poet dreams of fair women he is sure
to dream something doleful. If he
were to have a dream of ugly little
women it would be full of brightness,
loyalty, devotion. sincerity, fertitude,
and all those other lovable female
qualities that make some happy. Tall
Beauty is epic; Little Ugly is lyric,
homelike. Just think of what deep
seated compliment is involved in call
ing irregularity of feature homeliness.
1t means that she is not for the ball
room, but for the home, for the friend
ships that cluster around the hearth,
for the merry little sOciable, the picnic
or off-hand game, or for the darkened
sick-room, where she brings rest and
comfort. pretty is as pretty does'' is
an old maxim, whose truth is only half
appreciated. For in the plainness of
feature and insignificance of person of
homely women there is often found an
earnestness, n whole-souled sweetness
and sympathetic expression that win
love far quicker than mere beauty. The
world could far more easily afford to
lose its supplies of beauty than to give
up its precious stores of ugly little
women. The beauties wait to be loved;
the others delight in loving.-Baltimore

How to Keep Calves Growing.

The care of young calves is of consid-
eraBe importance. To wean calves so
that their growth will not be checked
requires some little skill and attention.
The first seasons growth either builds
up constitution for future usefulness
or the animal is permanently injured.
The different methods of raising calves
in this section are as numerous as the
men engaged in the business. Some
farmers indulge in pardonable pride
in the great, lusty, growing animals
with which their calf pasture is stocked.
These calves have all the milk they can
drink. They do not easily learn to eat
grass, for they do not require it. They
are fed milk late the season, and
plenty of it, even if the pigs do suffer.
But these calves must be weaned SOON
er or later, and are probably weaned
a little later in the season than the
calves on other farms in the same
neighborhood. At the time they are
weaned, they are extra good calves
probably half as large again as calves
that We're weaned month earlier-and
are in good flesh, and growing fast.
These calves, with large frames to sup
port, soon begin to lose flesh and go
into winter quarters poor. They stop
growing, continue poor all winter, are
especially liable to become sick, and
are turned out poor in the spring.
Farmers who patronize cheese facto-
ries do not take any especial pride in
calves. Their calf pasture is usually
located in some back lot at a distance
from the highway. Their calves are
usually from two weeks to a month old
when they begin to be fed entirely on
whey. When pigs are fed on it they
may develop more capacious paunch,

A Kind Word for Women Who Are Not
Handsome.

Beauty gets plenty of praise. Poets
sing of it, romancers furnish it in
abundance to their heroines, dramatists
use it as the motive of their most STIR
ring plays, painters and sculptors de-
light to portray it, all the world wor-
ships it, and yet there is much to be said
about the noble qualities of ugly little
women. There is often more charm in
the vitality, energy, unselfshness, and
gaiety of an ugly little woman than in
half dozen tall, queenly beauties, who
have to be on the watch all the time to
pose well and make their points effect
i've. There have been men in the
world who thought it fine thing to
say that can ugly woman has no place
in the economy of nature" But if the

An Interesting Legal Decision.

Two advertisements of Masters sale
were published in the Dover, N. j., IN
der. On the day of the sale the de-
PENDANTS protested against it, declaring
that the sale was not legal, the notice
thereof having been published in
newspaper using "patent outside"
The Master ordered the sale to take
place. The defendants filed petition
in chancery to set aside the sale, al
leging the reasons given above. The
petition raised the issue as to whether
newspaper using a "patent outside"
printed outside the State, was a news
paper printed in the State in which
legal notices might be legally adver-
tised. The following is true copy of
the decision of Chancellor Runyon and
Vice-Chancellor Van Fleet, and very
clearly settles the question relative to
the legality of such advertising:

THIS time Edison thinks he has hit
upon a perfectly feasible process by
which he can and will drive gas out of
our streets and houses, and give us the
electric light instead. The new light,
he says, besides being great deal more
brilliant, will be a great deal less eX-
pensive than the old one. Moreover,
the same wire is to bring power and
heat into the house as well as light, and
be as available for cooking or for run
