She Wilted Him.

There il one patron Of the North
Pennsylvania street line who has the
reputation of being most dreadfully dis
agreeable The conductors say he Is
kicker, and the neighbors say he has the
dyspepsia. Anyway he generally creates
scene wherever be goes, but since a
recent experience he Is a little particu-
lar about his conduct on street car.
He boarded crowded car at-well,
some street between Ohio and Seventh.
The nj was filed with persons hold
ing Oh u the straps. de stood for sec
ond in the doorway and glowered at
those within The conductor placed his
hand on the shoulder Of the bad tenn
pered man and said:
Pass OH, please, and don't stand in
the doorway
The disagreeable man turned his head
bit and snapped in return:
Don't get gay. Stop your pushing,
or I'll report
The unfortunate man, while making
this speech to tho conductor, did not OBJ
serve that woman was attempting 10
pass ont. Like many others, he thought
the car had stopped for him alone But
his Grabbed remarks were cut short by
an energetic shove from the lady passen-
ger She thought his cutting remarks
were aimed :, her, and in high pitched
voice she rel lied:
"You are Insulting. sir, and very un-
gentlemanly Imust get out. and II you
are not enough Of gentleman to allow
me to pass shall do some reporting. "
The bad tempered man tried to explain
and apologize, but the woman brushed
past him. All the passengers heard the
remarks and witnessed the incident, and
the disagrceable man looked truly
ashamed. indianapolis Journal

RllYlN6 COWS OR RAISING Them.

The man who goes out 10 buy COWS Is
much like the one who buys lottery
ticket. says the Ohio Farmer. He may
draw a prize, but the chances are against
IL. Most of The cows for sale are offered
because they are not wholly desirable to
their owners. A good Judge of dairy
cows may be able TO make a desirable
selection, but many more would make a
poor one. Then. too, it requires the out
Law of considerable capital 10 buy enough
cows TO start a dairy. Unless this is no
objection. the prospective dairyman had
better follow the grading up plan, and
raise his own cows. This is by far the
most satisfactory, TO my way OF think
ing. One knows his cows; he has the
training of them from the start, and can
feed aud care for them in n manner tend
ing toward the proper development Of
them. But never, under any circum-
stances, trv TO start herd without the
thoroughbred bull. He is indispens-
able.

GROOMING COWS.

A considerable number Of the best
dairymen brush aud comb their cattle
regularly. Many more never put brush
on COW from one years ind to an
other.
Ii is unquestiouably very excellent
plan, this grooming Of dairy cows, and
should be followed far more generally.
Grooming is OF sanitary and hygienic
character. The skin is natural organ
of excretion, same as the bowels and
Kidneys Consequently, for the sake OF
health, all accumulstiOns Of dandrufl
should be removed, aud the skin stimu-
lated to action by frequent brushing and
rubbing.

WORKING EoR HE FUTURE.

To greater degree than men who are
engaged in most other occupations
which require the use of the hands as
well as of the mind, the farmer is work
ing for the future. While he hopes,
and expects, TO soon receive a part OF
the rev ard for his labor, he knows that
A considerable portion Of the returns for
his work cannot be obtained for months.
or even for years. The man who thor
oughly prepares the soil TO receive the
seed for crop Of corn or potatoes. not
only does much TO promote the growth
OF the crop which he will remove this
year. but also does a good deal TO bene-
fit the crop which is TO be grown on the
same land next year.

Little Superstitions.

remarked a secondhand furniture man.
I'VE constantly have people who sell rs
articles of household use and come in
after q few weeks-sometimes only days
and try to buy them back again, with
the explanation that they have had bad
luck ever since the sale was made and
never would have good luck again until
the bargain was undoDe.
lone woman who had sold us her
grandmother clock fairly wept be-
cause it was gone before she could buy
it in again. This idea is not confined to
uneducated or ignorant people by any
means.
AT this very time I know a Louis
vile business man Of great culture and
refinement who is vigorously pursuing
an old wooden desk which he owned
many years ago-a desk on which he
made an enormous amount of money by
q few lucky strokes of his pen. The
desk passed from hand to hand and out
Of his possession. He is now earnestly
~endeavoring to trace it and purchase it,
believing that recent business reverses
and hard times will fee away If he can
only stretch his legs once more under
that same old desk. "-Louisville Cou-
