Miss Won Hihlern, the young woman
who has accomplished so many re.
markable walking feats, is pleasantly
described by a writer in the Cincin-
natl Commercial: ''As she races
around the track, she locks like
fish darling. Though the water. She
is as straight as an arrow, and her
shoulders are very broad and square
for womau's. Her walking is not
in the least like that of ordinary per.
sons. 1t is like that of an Indian on
d long journey. She seems to propel
herself along with her arms and
shoulders almost as much as with
her feet. The peculiar swing of her
elbows and shoulders reminds enc
continually of the motion of a birds
wings. Her toes do not turn, out, as
civilized peoples are supposed to.
They go straight ahead, and the left
foot perhaps points slightly inward"
She is an excellent business woman,
has invested her money in Boston,
and takes shrewd care of it. She is
native of Freiberg, in Baden, and
is a Jealous and pious Roman Cath
Ollie. One good result of her ex-
hibitions is said to be the inspiring
of ladies to pedestrian exercises. A
ladies' walking club has just been
formed in Washington, its members
pledging themselves to eat an oat-
meal breakfast, put on "a loose, light
Bloomer walking dress and take a
long walk in the country at least
three times a week.

Sl VlNG SEED CORN.

There has been good deal said about
saving seed corn, and good many
foolish notions advanced, such as ran
sacking the field before the corn is
cut, and selecting the ears that ri
penel soonest, leaving on about one
third of The huakS to be hung up by
in the peak Of some building; others
recommenl putting into barreles or
boxes, Sc. TO put seed corn into a
tight barrel or box would be the
worst treatment it could have. 1t
should be put where it can dry out
as soon as possible. In going around
the field, picking ears before husking,
You will not get the best, but will
trtler away much time; besides, Sc
lectng seed corn is common sense
business operation, with no fine or
critical points about it. All will ad-
nit that the best development and
best maturel ears are the right ones
to be saved for seed and the easiest
way to obtain these ears is the best.
have raised the same kind of corn
for fifteen years without changing the
seed, and it has steadily improved all
the time. And yet, | don't attribute
all the Improvement to the selection
Of the seed, but part of it to cultlva-
ton, lor 10 variety Of corn can be
kept uq to a proper standard with
out good cultivation. Any corn will
degenerate ana run out if not half
cultivated, although great pains may
be taken in selecting the seed; but,
by obtaining good seed, giving good
oulyiyotiou, and obtaining good crops,
the variety will improve. Now for
the way to save the seed, after the
corn is Ausked out Of the shock and
thrown to the ground, take a basket
and go from one pile tc another. The
ears will all be in sight, and in this
way the best is the field can be OBJ
tanned with but little trouble. Put
it where it will dry out quickly, the
quicker the better. ! have practised
this plan for fifteen years, and never
missed having excellent seed, that
sent up strong and vigorous stalk.
Never plant the butt or tip kernels,
never pick largest corn, but good,
fair. sized kernels, closing well over
tin Of ears. -Prachc0I Farmer.
