Cause of Failure with Incubators.

Too much curiosity and anxiety are the
cause of many failures that occur with i'll
cubatOrs. The most difficult part of the
operation is to abstain from interference
with the egg drawer just ut the time of
coming out of tile shell, changes of tenn
pera ture i'll the incubator are fatal to
young chicks. 1t is well known that
when Il hen is on the nest, engaged in
Matching, nothing will induce her to ex-
pose the eggs after she is aware that the
chicks are coming out. She will leave the
eggs at other times to get food and water,
but not when the chicks are Matching
The same rule applies to incubators. AS
soon as the eggs begin to hatch close the
drawer, and keep it closed, till as many

wish to be gratified. should be told that
they cannot be accommodated. Keep the
drawer shut and have patience. The re-
suit will be much more satisfactory than
would be the case if the chicks were OK
posed to changes occasionally.

This dressing will be found much more
appetizing OH dandelons than any other.
Other salads which are growing in ia
vor are the chicory, cscarole, the endivc.
These plants all belong to the same fam
lily, and resemble each other. They grow
fiat, in the form of a mat composed Of
long, narrow, thick, 'crinkly outer green.
The outer leaves are tough and should be
discarded. Like all other green salads
these should be placed in very cold water
an hour before serving. Either the
French or German dressings can be used
in serving.
Watcrcress is one of the oldest of salad
plants. 1t grows in: wet places, mostly
along the sides of running streams of
water. 1t is crjspy when young, and very
tender. 1t has slightly peppcry flavor.
which makes it exceedingly relishable,
especially with meats. So:
Of the vegetable salads the cucumber
is by all odds the best and most popular
People who know nothing about other
salads, and never eat anything in that
line except picked rcd bccts, enjoy the
cucumber salad. The vegetable is now
found in the market every day in the year,
but is at it's best in the spring and sum-
grown, il hot houses fetch as high as
50 and IS cents apiece. No farmer con
siders his garden complete without a
dozen hills of the cucumber plant.
Cucumbers are II hardy vegetable and
can be kept fresh for n week or moro
after picking by. placing them in cold
water. No one has yet found better
dressing for the cucumber salad than pep
per. oil, salt and vinegar. This salad is
held in high esteem by gourmets, espc-
cially when served with fish.
Radshes and celery are valuable adj
juncts to the table. Radishcs arc cspe>
cia!ly appctizing at breakfast or with the
earlier courses of the dinner. Celery is
always served, when in season, with tho
oysters and roasted turkey. The Kala-
mazoo or Michigan variety is the best
and commands the highest price in tho
market. The stalks are large, white,
firm and tender. Celery may be eaten
in it's natural state or with dressing, the
former being the more. popular way.
When cut up into small pieces and served
with nayonnaise dressing it makes an lex-
cellent salad to serve with lunches ind
receptions and parties. Celery Ia also
used IN chicken salad. q

mitted TO assume her name though

Dr.. Parkhurst Calls them andre
maniacs," and Defines the Word.
There is an element in the cOmmun-
ity-a small one 1 would fain hope,
yet the size of a thing is no measure
Of the disquiet it will produce even
as one little piping frog in the meadow
will Guido all the crickets that are
chirping i'll the grass and all the whip
pOOr-Wills that are singing in the air
there is an element in the feminine
world that is suffering from what |
shall venture to call "Andromania,"
writes the Rev. Charles II. Parkhurst
in the first of a series Of articles which
he has prepared for The Ladies' Home
Journal, the initial one Of which ap-
pears in the February issue under the
above title. The word is not an
English one, for the reason, [ sup
pose, that the English language
makers never supposed that we should
need such a term. 1t is constructed
on the same principle as the word
AnglOmania, which means passionate
aping Of everything that is English.
"AndrOmania' means similarly a pas
siOnate aping Of everything that is
mannish. 1t is an attempt on the part
of those affected with the disease to
minimize distinctions by which man
hood and WOmanhOOd are differentiat-
ed, whether as regards their culture,
their interests, or their activities. 1t
is that animus which permits a wo-
man to imagine that she has achieved
great triumph if she succeeds in
doing something that only man has
hitherto been accustomed to do, but
that no woman has hitherto ayailed
to do. 1t is that animus which excerpts
to having WOman's public activities
along any line distinguished by any
designation Of seX-as when, in a
neighboring city not long ago, a COM
pany of women were organizing for
action in a field where masculine eff
forts were already being eXerted, and
they objected TO having their society
called "The WOmen's Board of Aid"
on the ground that their masculine
analOgues working in the same field,
did not call their organization 1.-THE
Mems Board Of Aid" Although these
two societies were occupying the same
ground, yet it was reasonable to ex-
pect that the two would cover the
same ground in quite different ways;
and if the women in question had re-
allied that fact as fully as they ought
to have done, so far from wanting
to exclude the term women" they
would have been anxious to retain it,
and to have proved that their work
was equally as valuable.
