struck the Wrong Man.

An amusing story is told Of a West
Walnut street young woman who, hav'
ing read strange tales of stunning in
London, determined to visit Philadel-
phia's own very tough slum district and
see what life there was like. AS sort
of preliminary she supplied herself
with number of tracts, having vague
idea that the benighted residents there
were in need of spiritual instruction.
Boarding Seventh street car she got
off at cambridge, and to the first man
she saw, who was leading idly against
lamppost, she very politely handed
one of the tracts. He took it good
naturally, and after glancing at it re-
turned it with the smiling remark thai
he was married man. Greatly mysti-
fed by this expression she looked at
the tract, and saw that it was entitled
"Abide with me-" She took the next
car home, vowing vengeance against
tracts and Summing. - Philadelphia

so long as our cities and state and na'
ton are in copartnership with ST.
looms and our police force levying
blacknail upon gamblers and shame
less houses our criminal class will null
tiply and poverty and vice will mani
fest itself in robbery and rape and in
murder and arson.
Almost every criminal with the
crimes of his life is breaking mothers
heart, a wife's heart or bowling the sire
of home with grief unendurablc.
Oh how these criminals bring sad
ness and regret with their awful asso-
citation to the many homes of our land.
When the fathers and mothers Of our
country shall see that an ounce of pro-
ventive is worth u pound of cure,
when they shall see that the time and
pains they spent in right training
and wisely rearing boy or girl are
but few and pleasant compared to the
burden and grief which come in the
long sad years which follow in tho
wake of criminals life and the felon's
home, then, and not before, will wa
have fewer crimes and fewer criminals
and less need for reformatory schools.

A SERIOUS AlLMENT.
II Far from the Dentists Toothacho IL
Not to he Lightly Regarded.

NOT To DE Lightly heHaEuO"
Some one, in writing critically Of
novels, once said: "Who ever heard Of
the hero of tale suffering from jaun-
dice or mumps, or the heroine down
with toothache?' Who, to be sure,
ever did? Jaundicc and mumps and
aching teeth are not romantic COM
plants. Even the redlists prefer to omit
them from the ills of their characters.
Under certain circumstances they
may, however, be serious ailments.
Has anyone ever stopped to think
seriously of the terrible torture suf-
fered by bacllwoodsmen and inmates
of logging camps from toothache? Tho
complaint is by no means uncommon
in the woods, happening scores of miles
from any town in which relief might
be obtained. Small wonder then that
matter in the woods, and that instances
are on record of loggers committing
suicide rather than bear the pain.
These facts were ascertained not long
since from number of guides in one
of the most secluded portions of the
Adirondac<s. 1t suddenly occurred to
gentleman who made one of we'll
equipped party that he had omitted to
make his regular annual call upon hia
dentist. This suggested the idea Of
making some inquiries
"What do you do" asked he, "if you
have a toothache up here?"
well" said his guide, replying in
that deliberate manner for which all
woodsmen are noted, well, that de-
pends If it is not bad toothache we
Try to stand it,"

the sportsman
yes" was the reply, but there amt
no doctors up here nearer than Long
Lake village or Indian river. There
amt much choice between 'em. They're
both forty miles away. There amt no

1--WE get EN- out if we can, or wait I'M
til the dentist comes. There's one

two weeks.

out the tooth with their knives or pull
'em out with carpenters pincers. Once

He had to leave camp. There was an

"You say dentist comes to Long
Lake once a year?' remarked the gen
tleman. II suppose he does pretty
good business"

of the woods to have 'em yanked.

ANorHER PLAN.



Common hens can not be made equal
to thoroughbreds as egg producers, but
there is much in feeding, housing and
care. Common hens well cared for
will outlay the neglected hens of the
best fowl stock on earth. There is
much in breeding, but there is more in
raising.
We shall hear less grumbling and dis
cussion about the different breeds of
fowls when farmers generally get it
through their heads that even thor
oughbreds need good shelter, food and
care in order to enable them to do their
best in the egg business.
A great deal of nonsense has been
written about the feeding of fowls, aud
great deal more will yet be written,
but for all that it is a good thing to
have some system, even, if you will,
some fixed bill of fare, gotten up with
some intelligence. There is "A right way
and wrong way, and the right only
will do it.
Early layers depend upon the stock
and upon the way they are raised.
Pullets from stock long bred for early
mating will, provided they are kept
growing from the start, lay earlier in
life than those from stock which has
been bred chiefly for show purposes.
We must not overlook food for the
hens which we may have in great alum
dance-clover. 1t is bulky, and rich in
lime and nitrogen. 1t is better to cut
it fine and scald it, and then mix it
with little ground grain in the morn
ing; it will save more costly food.
Better buy thoroughbred eggs or
fowls than to try to grade up the com
mon stock, because it saves time, and
going up hill is not half so easy as go
ing down. A little neglect will make
enough. WISCONSIN Agriculturist.
Plant no Poor Trees.
The nursery price of fruit tree is
but small part of its actual cost by
the time it reaches the bearing age.
To buy poor trees because they are
sold cheaper is rank folly. The best
tree in any nursery is none too good to
plant, and in the end will pay far bet
ter than poorer one. 1t may not be
the largest tree, but will have sound
roots and a shapely top. Sharp-forked
trees and those with the main branches
all diverging from one place are not
fit to plant, for they will prove treach-
erous when load of fruit is on them.
Never touch tree that has been in
jured by rabbits, aphis, etc, or by
rough handling.
An apple tree, perfect in all respects,
would be cheaper at one dollar than
an ill-shaped or stunted tree at one
cent 1t is the labor in caring fl r it,
and above all the time it stands il the
orchard occupying valuable space, chat
makes it costly. So put up with no cid
scrubby trees with poor roots. Some
varieties are small in growth in the
nursery that will develop into good
orchard trees. Asa rule the nursery
man does his part better than the IN an
who buys the trees; but l hope the
reader will give his trees the best pos
sible care.-H. Z. Van Deman.

After securing sufficient stock of the
