II aruer some experience to pay with
hberality for any special
service-that is, any service above and
outside of that which the man is EN-
ployed to render to every tenant in COM
mon. And l never tip such men on gen.
eral principles-that is, Unfortunately.
If an understanding to that effect is es-
tablished at once upon going into new
fat, you will avoid all the ills to which
others are subjected and have at call
those who are not only ready and will
ing, but eager to serve you. Begin at
once to compensate literally every per
son about the place who renders you
special services and pay nobody else a
cent. Follow this rule, and you will in
variably get excellent service and plenty
of attention. This rule ~ work equally
well with the waiter if you are regular
customer-NewY York Herald.

How This May Be Accomplished Without
Loss of Fertilizing Material.
Raw manure is not in condition for the
market gardeners purposes except in rare
cases. 1t may do for sweet corn and
comes in play for heating hotbeds or fore
ing melons, but for general garden crops
it must be composted and made as fine
as possible. There need be no loss of
fertilizing materials or elements if the
compost heap is properly made, as shown
in the illustration Pile it up in square
heap with perpendicular sides and fiat
top, four or five feet high and as wide
as long, as may be required, advises
Greiner in his How to Make the Garden
Pay" He further directs:
Let it come to a heat and fork the
mass over from time to time until it is in
the desired condition. 1t takes time and
labor, adding to the original cost, and in

wonders of GeometricaI Progression

The story of Sysla and the king is usu-
ally told as a good illustration of geo.
metrical progression. Sysla, so the story
goes, was the inventor Of the game of
chess. The king was 80 delighted with
the diversion that he promised to grant
any request the inventor might make.
Sysla, who must have been a mathema-
tician as we'll as mechanical genius,
only asked that the generous king would
put one grain of wheat ON the first
square of the board and double the
amount upon each successive square up
to and including the sixty-fourth. Lucas
de Burgo says that there was not enough
wheat in the kingdom to pay the crafty
inventor, which was IS, 446, 744 ,073, 709,-
557, 615 grainsl According to a curious
medley of figures published in the Louis
vile Courier-J ournal, there are 1885,, 900
grains in bushel of wheat. How many
bushels did the modest inventor ask forf
The number of bushels as given in the
book "Curiosities of the Game and Play
of Chess" fall more than one-third short

Rare American Coins.

Coin collectors have long appreciated
the difficulty of making complete col
lection of American specimens. The
United States coinage of 1898 is very rare
and dollar of the year 1894 has often
sold for as much as 800. A 1895 half
cent is SO rare as to sell readily for $40,
and half dollar of the same year is
worth go times its original value. While
the half cent of 1904 is common enough,
all the other coins of that year are rare,
the dollar of that particular date being
the rarest of all American coins. Only
eight are known to exist out of the
1850 that were coined. The lowest
price. that one of these now changes
hands for is $S00.-London News.

EUGENE.
a. 0 living Niobe.

A triple crown, o living Niobe,
Was thine; rare-set with priceless gems
Unknown to mine or mart-the diadems
Of beauty, motherhood and royalty;
But with the days of empire waned thy bloom,
o flower of throne and hearts as well.
To France the hour of destiny befell-
And thou vert left alone beside tomb.
When he, last scion of this kingly line,
Perished by sword of ruthless Zulu slain,
Thy mother heart could brook no further
pain,
But refuge sought in the all love divine.
Where faith and conservation wait to see
The lifted veil of immortality.

First Judicial Honor. For a woman.

To Henry VIII belongs the honor OF
having conferred judicial rights upon a
woman. Lady Anne Berkeley of York
was allowed by the sovereign, who had
the widest experience Of the virtues Of
women, to sit as judge, appoint COM
mission and actually to pass sentence on
some men who had been killing her deer
and despoiling her park. The sentence
is not recorded. but the fact remains
that at least one woman has exercised ju-
dicial rights.-New York Sun.

There is in Galloway, Scotland, an
ancient ruin known as Sweetheart abb

Is the sad story of many lives made miser-
able through no fanlt of their own. Scrof-
ula Is more especially than any other a
hereditary disease, and for this simple
reason: Arising from impure and insult
ficient blood, the disease locates itself in
the lymphatics. which are composed of
white tissues there is period OF foetal
life when the whole body consists of white
tissues. and therefore the unborn child is
especially susceptible tothis dreadful dis
ease. But there is a remedy for scrofula,
whether hereditary or acquired. 1t is
Hoods Sarsaparilla, which by its.powerful
effect on the blood, expes all trace of the
disease and gives to the vital fluid the
quality and color of health. If you de-
eide to take Hoods Sarsaparilla do not &C
cept any substitute.
