THE ADVERTISING FAKE.

The advertising man went to New
Decatur and Is thus sized up by the
New Decatur Advertiser: "He was
In town this week with a display
card 22x2S inches In size, on which
were about Is spaces for sale at u pei
space. Ie thus realized about $50,
and after spending about go for print.
ing he walks of with $40 In his pocket,
lie got the space filled in a day. How
long would it take n Of the home
papers to yet $50 worth of advertising
out Of our merchants In Old and New
Decatur? 1t was only yesterday the
editor paid the last Of the 800 he sub.
scribed towards the new tannery.
How much do these tramping fakirs
subscribe for the good Of the city ?
and why should they draw $50 In cash
that should have gone to local papers =?
Even the merchants VINO pay out the
cash acknowledge the advertisements
OF this fake will never do them any
good. They are simply honeyfooglcd
into IT,"

Rochester tlnd..) Sentinel.
Take a walk through n cemetery
and you will pass the last resting
place OF the man who blew into the
muzzle Of a gun to see il II was loaded.
A little further down the slope Is
buried the crank WIN tried to show
how close he could pass in front Of a
moving train. In strolling about you
see the modest monument Of the hired
girl who started the fire with kerO-
sene, and the ~grass-covered knoll that
covers what is !, IT VI the boy who put
q corncob under a mules tail. The
tall shaft OF the ma who blew out
the gas casts a shadow across the
bosom Of the boy who tried to jump
on a moving train. Side by side the
ethereal creature who always had her
corset laced 10 the last hole and the H..
telligent idiot who rode a bicycle nine
miles in 10 minutes sleep or undisturb-
ed. Here repOsc the remains OF the
doctor who took a dose Of his own
medicine, and just over there with
the top OF a shoc box driven over his
head lies a rich man who married a
young wife. Away over there by a
side gate repose the remains OF the
boy who went fishing on Sunday, and
the woman Who kept strychnine side
by side with baking powder in the
cupboard. The man who stood in
front OF a moving machine TO oil the
sickle is quiet now, and lie rests by
the side Of the careless brakeman who
fed himself to a scventy.tOn engine.
Those four newly made graves over
yonder are occupied by the careless
farmers who attempted to feed a fOd.
der shredder and smoke at the same
time, and so 1t goes.

FEEDING GREEN BONE TO
HENS.

A correspondent Of Farm, Field and
Fircsidc says: Enthusiasts claim so
much for frcsh-cut bone that the earn.
est desire OF practical p%oultrymen to
know the truth Of the matter has led
To a careful invcstigatiOn. The results
have been very satisfactory, and the
reason so simple as to excite surprise
that 1t was never thought VI before.
A hen has to find the material to form
an egg from the food she gets. II that
food Is rich in the egg constituents,
she lays well, but il lacking in them
she lays poorly.
A chemical analysis OF green bone
shows that it contains every element
found in the white, the yOlk and the
shell Of the egg. This accounts for the
avidity with which green bone is
dev0urcd by the hen. Instinct I'M
plants in all animals a taste and de-
sire for foods that arc suitable for
them. A hen will leave any other food
at any time for a mess OF green bone.
In summer, when allowed free range,
bugs and worms supply this craving
for animal food, and that is n ca.
son why hens lay better in summer
than in winter. During winter, or
when confined, bugs and worms can
not be had, and the hen has to wait
days, and sometimes yer weeks, to
accumulate from the insufficient food
supplied her insufficient not In
quantity, but in cgg-maklng elemcnts)
enough material TO make an egg. But
when given a daily allowance Of green
bone, rich in every constituent Of the
egg, the hen no longer has to wait,
each organ receives its necessary nour-
ishment, the cgg Is formed quickly
and the hen has got to lay.

OF NAN WHO FOUGHT TO Rrn,,,,
SOCIAL STANDING IN THE SOUTH


Catchings, of Mississippi, was ten.
ing the other day Of some Of the earl,
dueling In Mississippi. He told
story Of the experience Of a youny
man who went to Vicksburr fro,n
somewhere East. New England n,

His name was Robin. lie w,,,

They began by mi their number

avoided the quarrel, and did not see
its purpose. One after another tried
TO get him %cmbroiled, without success.
Then they began tn put indiyni,ie,
upon him and to insult him. His
only mode OF resentment was 10 saw

In a short time they had him ostra.

concious Of any loss Of dignity or

look upon his isolation MS simply his

he considered bad company. Mean.
while he had been me an object Of con.
tempt among their cavaliers, and
finally II began to reject upon tho
bank.
One day after some particularly
gross insult had been passed over BY
him with his accustomed silent con.

him aside and explained the situation,
adding that he must regain public re.

The New Orleans States says: ut
ID a somewhat remarkable fact that
out Of the upward Of 1900 women OF
this country who are physicians, not
more than 200 have a college training,
according to President Thwing, of tho
Western Reserve university. OF the
1,235 women preachers and 2OS women
lawyers IN the country, but few are
college bred. Even more surprising
Is the fact that the colleges
have contributed very few Of the
literary women OF the country. Most
Of the women's college graduates be.
come teachers or ornament homes.
Many Of the preachers, being good
takers, do not undertake the regula-
ton three years course In theology,
but 60 right ahead and discourse from
the pulpits, lcarnedly or otherwise"

''Though the profession Of journal.
