the explanation of graft hybrids now

Four Hundred Nickels.

Superintendent Morton, Of the Union
Railway Company. tells the following
story: ssWhen l first took charge of the
road the drivers complained to me of 9
certain lady who rode down town AND
back again every day without paying
fare. She would get aboard the car and
hand the driver a $40 bill to change. O1
course he could not change it, and could
not ask the lady to get off, so she rode
free every trip. l decided that she was
deliberately beating the company and de-
termincd to get even with her. One
morning / gave one of the drivers on the
line which passed the lady's house, $40
in nickels, and instructed him to change
the lady's bill. She fell into the trap,
and about ten o'clock boarded the right
car on her way down town. She handed
the driver the $40 bill, and he promptly
returned her 400 nickels. She put her
fare in the box, but she was SO angry
she left the car and did not ride again for
a month. After that she always had
change when she boarded car. 1T
would surprise you," continued..Mr. Nor
ton, ito know how many people, espe..
cially ladies, beat the company out OF
their fare in this way. They tender
$40 or $50 bill, knowing very well that
the driver cannot change it, and in that
way secure free ride. ''-Birmingham

Martlla's Grave.

Down in Houston county there is an
ancient village called Old Wilmer. 1t
was once the old county site. While it
was in it's most prosperous days there was
big school there. and there came a
teacher from the North to take
charge of the academy. His name was
Moore. During his residence there he
lost his wife, whom he loved very dearly.
He had her buried in the ola burying
ground of Wilmer, and out of his meagre
funds he erected marble tombstone at
the head of her grave. As it was located
in the wildwood, as cemeteries generally
were then, it was a favorite ground ior
the Juvenile population. Thus it came
about that the half obliterated cpitaph
appears to-day, cut deep in the messy
stone; '.Boys, Don't Shoot Birds Around

Moore, with date of birth and death, ap-

A rag-peddler who was driving up

Hastings street when his horse ballSed.
The usual number of smart Alecks
were soon on hand with their advice,
and one suggestion after another was

be pulled nor pushed, and as he was
blockading traffic the crowd began to
grow very rapidly.

"Balky horse, answered some one.

"No, he doan' start oop."

The lad ran up the street half block
and pulled Il handful of hay out OF a
bale at feed-store, and when he re-
turned he cleared space in front OF
the horse, stood off about five feet, and
extended his hand. The horse pricked
up his ears, his eyes ghstened, and ht
at once advanced and followed the boy
around the corner.

WOMAN SUCCEEDS.
One Of ffl9SuccessfuI Ones Tells How IL
Is Done,


No propqS estimate of the future econom-
ical progrdf of the country can be made that
does not tssA into consideration an element
whicn may be termed "the woman i'll busi-
ness"
She is knocking at all the doors Of CONNER
cial enterprise, and there are very few into
which sne has not already forced an entrance.
The results seem to indicate that, beyond a
doubt, she has come to stay.
She cannot perhaps often reach the levers
which move the great driving wheels of brsl-
ness, but she proves most important factor
in the minor but scarcely less important ma
chinery of detail.
Phi! Armour's private secretary is young
lady who was first employed as a stenographer
and Typewriter. She proved SO capable and
efficient t.iat her sphere of usefulness has been
gradually enlarged, until she now has probably
closer acquaintance with Armour's extended
business than any other person connected
with it,
1t used to be claimed that a woman had
neither physical nor mental stamina to con-
ducta large business.
Mrs. Frank Leslie has made q success of as
complicated n business enterprise as almost
any in the country. The strong point IN this
case is that when she took the helm, the Frank
Leslie Publishing Company had but short
time previously failed.
Madame Demorest conducts very exten-
sive business, which includes the publishing
of q magazine Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller
conducts afamous dress reform movement,
ard is also the editress of a very successful
magazine called Dress. Her daily mail is
said to be larger than that of any other
woman in the United States.
Mrs Miller says: "Warner's safe cure is
the only medicine | ever take or recommend.
The safe cure has the effect to give new ener-
gy and vitality to all my powers"
These women have demonstrated that the
sex can succeed in business if they take proper
care of their health That is the main point,
even with the sterner sex, and it is the subject
to which, above all others, the women of to-
day should give their attention. And here,
as every where, comes in play the old maxim.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Pork for Home Use.

II may, possibly, pay best to hav,
large, fat porkers for market purposes, t
suit the needs of the packers of pork
who want the large, heavy pork, bu
when it comes to the home supply, w,
want our pork with but a small portion
of fat. There are some breeds OF pigs
noticeably so the small English York.
shircs, which produce q very large pro.
portion of fat, and, while they may
please the eye of most persons, when in
the living form, wnen killed and dressed
the large proportions of fat makes tho
meat undesirable for most palates. II
does not pay to raise pigs solely, or al
most 80, for lard. With the exception
of, perhaps, the Berkshires, most of our
well-known breeds of pigs are, in their
purity, rather too much inclined to lay
on fat to make them desirable for home
use, and we have for number of years
been experimenting to find out how to
produce just such porkers as would best
meet the requirements. /, While the breed
ing has great deal to do with having
good pork for home use, the feeding
plays very important part, and the
quality of the pork depends in a great
measure on proper feeding. We de not
ike having She porkers confined to small
pens, even though the pigs may fatten
up more quickly than if they4lave plenty
OF exercise room, but let them have the
run OF a good clover lot during the sum-
mer and fall, ringing the pigs 50 that
they cannot destroy the sod, then supply
them with grain, in different forms
daily, with plenty of fresh water, at
least once day, as much as they will
drink. Hogs can be kept in fair condi-
ton on plenty of clover and water, but
to make them improve as they should,
grain should be given. A good summer
feed is one made by having corn and
oats ground together, say in proportion
OF one bushel of corn to two of oats,
then making a Stop of this. Our plan is
to half fill a barrel with this mixture
and then moisten the mass with cold
water in summer and hot in winter, do
ing this in the afternoon or evening, and
then feeding it, diluted to the proper
consistency, next morning, by which
time it will hive soured sufficiently.
1t is we'll to add a coupe of handfuls of
salt as well as a half peck or so of bits
OF charcoal. This charcoal can readily
be secured on the farm, where wood fires
are used, by sieving the wood ashes and
using the bits of charcoal which remain
IN the sieve. -Rreedcrs' Journal
