We print the following for what our
farmer friends think it is worth: An
Illinois farmer gives some good advice
about sowing seed-corn. He says:
Select your corn now. put IL up in
your smoke house. and smoke it until
you have it vanished; it will then be
thoroughly dry as well as being full of
creosote. You may plant il in the
mud and it will not rot half 80 easily
rs corn not treated. I lay boards
across the joist reaching from one to
the other Of the eye-plates and pile my
corn on the boards. II you make a
good selection of corn, there will not
be one grain in 50 fail to grow. and the!
heart Worm will not bother it at all. =.

One thing our legislators should
promptly do is to investigate and place
restrictions upon the insurance compa-
nies which are simply organized for
plunder. These illegitimate concerns
have bled the people and robbed them
of thousands upon thousands Of dollars.
Fraud and Misrepresentation charact-
erize their movements in every direc-
tion. They are to-day greater burden
than the railway monopoly. A verit-
able robbers roost, is the headquarters

knocking dream Stella could only hope
with all her might that the awakening
might be long delayed.
The splash of the water in the old
stone basin and the mysterious whisper
of the pines overhead, were the only
sounds that broke tue summer stiffness.
The tennis was too far off for them to
hear the merry players; they were quite
alone.
Did Dick remember the last time they
had been alone together? He came and
sat down on the broken step by her
side.
''Stella, do you shrink from me
still? After all the years I have been
working and toiling to be worthier of
you, am no nearer the goal than when
we last parted? Must 1 ask in vain as I
did Sthen, for the least little word ?" he
said slowly and gravely.
Not movement, not q sound from the
shrinking figure at his side. His face
grew graver still, and he bit his lip.

asked after pause.
Still no answer.
With sudden impulse, Sir Richard
stopped and peered under the broad hat
that hid her eyes from him.
What crying Stella" He was on his
knees beside her on the moss. "Have
made you cry My darling! my own !"
He was trying to take her in his arms,
but she struggled to free herself.
"Ah, Dick, told you once that our
lives were two poles apart; It was false
then, but it has come true" she MUIR

positions would be the same. You are,
as you have always been, world above

any gulf Stella. Won't you let me try

And then she struggled no longer.
"Dick," she whispered, by and by,
when conversation had had time to
become trifie less absorbing, edo you
remember what you said that night Mt
Churlstone You told me no man would
ever love ME rs you had done. I didn't
believe it then, but know now that YOU
were right"
"Did I say that?" he asked, laughing.
"Well, yes, was right, dare say
only put it in the wrong tense What
I should have said was, not as have
done, but as l do, and shall keep on
doing as long as the world shall last
And that would have been truer still, my
guiding star; so let it stand like that in
the future"
And that point was settled without
opposition once and for always.

Where the I'iaster Was.

A rather modest young doctor was
called in to see q lady who had been
taken suddenly i'll. The doctor found
the application of q pitch plaster neces-
sary and accordingly went to work and
made one and laid it carefully by to pre-
pare the lady for its application. Every
thing was ready and the doctor sought
the plaster; but strange to say it had
disappeared. The doctor and the negro
nurse searched high and low, in every
place, for the missing plaster, but it was
in vain; it was gone. no one could tell
where. The nurse had not seen it since
the doctor laid it on the chair. There
was no alternative but to go to work and
make another, which WAS accordingly
DONE But still the question would pre-
sent itself to all, what had become of the
been spirited away began to tell unfavor-
ably on the sick lady's rc.vous sensi-
bility; but the doctor could not help it;
he could not explain the mystery. The
doctor, in q deep brown study prepared
to leave and stood up before the fire to
warm himself before encouutering the
cold without. Through the force of q
vulgar habit he parted his coat-tails
behind, when the nurse displaying
about four inches of ivory, said:
81 found de plaster, massa DOCTOR"
"Where ?" eagerly asked the doctor;
"where is it"
"You have got it ahind," said the
nurse, still grinning.
The doctor clapped his hand behind
and there it was, sticking fast to the seat
of his breeches, where lie sat down on it
when it was lying on the chair. This
was too much for the modest doctor.
He seized his hat and stood not upon
the order of his going, but went at once.

Dear John. but one short year has passed

My years are less. dear John, than yours,
And I've been wild in my career;

Though sometimes you have been severe.
Deep in my heart your counsels dwell,
And though you often made me smart,
And though sometimes would rebel
thank you from my heart.
For many pleasant evening spent
With you. i'll studying classic lore;
And for sense of sweet content
Which have never known before;
For these thank you. and know
That though we find it hard to part,
These words of mine will ease the blow

Good-by. dear John! In after years
Remember that loved you well!
Twill not wound your heart with tears,
Yet words my sorrow could not tell.
l love you. oh! love you so.

Ill simply say before you 80,

Invention Of the Microscope.

The discovery of the magnifiying
power Of the simple lens was no doubt
made long before the Christian era. as
rude lenses of crystal have been found
in Egyptian ruins. and it is known that
the Greeks used magnificrs of glass.
which they called reading glasses"
The invention of the compound micro
scope. however, is claimed for various
persons. 1t is generally believed that
the first one was made by Zacharias
Jansen. of Holland, in 1890. Similar
instruments were made at very nearly
the same time by Fontana. in Italy.
Cornelius Drebbel, an astronomer Of
Holland. exhibited microscope in Eng
land in 1921. Pocket microscopes were
first made by one Benjamin Martin. in
London. about 1740. Great improve
ments have been made in this instru-
ment during the last century by DIR.

ROMAN MUSEUMS.
Some Of the Slost Noteworthy Galleries u

Some Of the Most Noteworthy Galleries u
the Eternal City.
The museums of Rome contain princi-
pally antiquities. comprising tombs.
pavements, frescoes, architectural frag-
ments and statuary. That of the Later
an has relics of the early history of
Christianity. in the form of mosaics,
inscriptions and sarcophaguses. There
is also here gallery of paintings not
containing much that is noteworthy.
The museum of the capital is filled with
ancient marbles of every description.
and in the new department has paint
ings by all the great masters of Italy.
with representative pictures of all the
schools of the north of Europe The
private galleries are often Disappointing.
Scattered through them are pictures Of
the Dutch school, Claudes. Van Dycks,
landscapes of Gaspard Poussin. canvases
by Nicholas POussin, and something of
all the Italian schools, but rarely the
best specimens of the respective masters.
The Colonna palace has some fine old
tapestries, Van Dyck or two, a Palma
the elder, and some landscapes BY Gas
pard Poussin which NAV have once been
handsome and which the catalogue en-
deavors to make you believe still are so.
The Barberini has canvases, some of
them good by comparison. of Titan,
Paul Veronese. Andrea del SartO. Ribera,
and the famous portrait of Beatrice
Cenci, said to be BY Guido. known all
over the world by engravings and litho-
graphs. 1t is hung where it can scarcely
be seen, and if the visitor finds an artist
copying in the gallery he always is
spoken of disparagingly. 1t has
some trace of Guido's color
ing and a bare suggestion of
his manner. But it is really weak and
watery. and the probability is that it was
neither painted by Guido nor that it is
true portrait of the unhappy Beatrice.
The Farnese palace. now occupied by
the French ambassador, is noted for the
frescoes of Michael Angelo which adorn
its principal halls. The Borghese gal
lery has much of the various Italian
schools that is interesting. and the larg-
est if not the best collection of pictures
of the Dutch school in Rome. The
Corsini palais is one of the most inter-
esting. 1t contains like the rest. great
number of mediocre pictures. with not
few masterpieces. Among the artists
represented are Guercino. Poussin, Ber-
gheim, Caraccio. Carlo Dolci. Guido,
Titan. Raphael, Albano. Salvador Rosa.
Murillo, Fra Anglelico. Ribera and yell
asguez. There are found here an unu-
Sual proportion of "Ecce Ho,nos."
Madonnas and portraits. An Ecce
Homo bv Carlo Dolci will attract atten-
ton for its wonderful combination of
agony. tenderness, power and pathetic
beauty. in which respects it excels eveif
those of Guido. The portraits of this
artist seen in Rome and in Florence
show the same remarkable ability to
idealize within the limits of truth and
nature. AT the Vatican and the Mu-
scum of the Capital are the largest and
finest collection of ancient busts. statues
and bas-reliefs in Rome. though they
are seen every where in perplexing con-
fusion.-Rome Cor. San francisco

Some persons have assumed that be-

false is as wholesome as the true. The
real point is the question of relative di-

and vigorous men like miners and lum-

those who consume but little fat except
butter, namely, women and children.
A Russian may make 4 light supper
of half-a-dozen tallow candles and an
Esquimau may swallow pound after
pound of train blubber, but these facts
would give little assistance in arranging
dietary for the refined and delicate.
