WOMEN WHO MAKE DAINTY
THINGS.

Then, there are two young women
who have gone into the flower business.
For twenty-five cents a week they will
put on your desk a little bouquet every
morning, which will prove a rest to
your eyes and reminder, all the day
long. of pleasanter things than accounts
and percentages, of debts and credits,
stcrks and bonds. I like this idea. It
is getting at the people who enjoy the
dainties of life, but who can't afford to
pay for them the prices demanded by
some of the big shops. There are wo-
men making bOnnets and women max
ing frocks for little children; there are
women busy hemmng ruffles to be put
upon the linen that goes to form the
trousseau Of a bride; and there are wO-
men setting dainty stitches into fine
fabric and soft flannel intended to make
part of the layette for newborn baby.
don't believe there was ever a woman
lived who didn't like to make baby
clothes. Personally, I can never see the
little petticOats, the tiny shirts, the fine
frocks. and the warm little knit jack
es without desire to hug them. They
are inanimate things that tell story,
a story always Of the future. They
are made for the coming baby; they are
worn by the growing baby, and they
are laid aside because they are outgrown
by the expectant man. It seems wrong
ever TO make these dear things with the
aid OF a sewing machine Every stitch
ought to be put in with needle guided
directly by the feminine fingers. So It
ia proper that the woman who wants TO
earn money should be making all these
beautiful belongings, and best OF al
that. making them well, which means
daintsly and exquisitely; she is being
paid we'll for her work.

ars and busters. If you own any fine

MOUND BUILDERS, CORN.


After Burial for Centuries II Grows Like
ssed Grain.
A curious experiment was made this
summer by Charles Graham, a nursery
man of this county, and the result lies
upon the desk before your correspon-
dent as he writes, says letter In the In
dianapolis News. Last year Mr.. A. A.
Graham, of Mount Vernon, Ind, made
a visit to the vicinity of Alton, H., and
called upon friend, who had just
opened mound builders burial mound
Upon the mound grew several large
trees, among them an oak four feet in
diameter, and thus the age of the mound
was established as considerable. In it
were found the crumbling remains of
bones, and among other utensils large
pot, containing maize very much like
our present common red corn. OF this
Mr.. Graham secured several grains, and
on returning home planted it. It grew,
and the result was that he produced a
strain of corn which is most likely the
ancestor of the corn we now cultivate.
In spite of having been in the grave
for certainly not less than 400 years.
it grew very rapidly and produced a
large, well-shaped ear upon fairly tall
stalk. The ear is well set, the grains
being somewhat smaller than any of the
present varieties, except popcorn. In
shape the grain resembles dried sweet
corn, being rough and wrinkled. In
taste it il sweet and agreeable.

FARMHOUSE CELLAR.

The Plan Thus Described Possesses .
Good Many Advantages
On a farm where four or more cows
are kept and the products of the milk
made into butter, large, well-ar-
ranged cellar will greatly aid in the
operation, and the plan illustrated pos
sesses many advantages. The churn
power is located at a, by the outside
cellar door b, so that the churned milk
is near the door. Plenty of light is
thus admitted to watch the condition

cows actually in milk in the dairy dur
ing the year. AS cows are bought and
sold, not the same 20 cows were in the
herd throughout the year. There are
generally, also, three or four dry cows
in the herd.
From the summary it will be seen
that for the number of cows actually
in milk. 6,175 pounds of milk were given
per cow. The cost of food per cow was
s37.s3, and the cost of labor was s61-36,
making total expense per cow in milk
nearly S106. The labor, however, in
cluded considerable amount of exper-
mental work, and also the labor Of
taking care of dry COWS, heifers, calves
and bulls. 1t also includes the cost OF
retailing the milk. The cost for food
only relates to the cows in milk.
Assuming SO pounds per gallon of
milk. the cost of food per gallon of milk
Is So cents, the cost of labor per gallon
of milk S.5 cents, while the average price
received for milk on this basis was eos
cents. 1t will be seen that the average
cost of a gallon of milk retailed to con-
sumers was 1877 cents. The real cost,
however, IS somewhat greater than
this, because more than SO pounds are
required for a gallon of milk when
peddled to the consumers. 1t is worthy
of notice that the work was all done by
students, for which. it will be seen,
they received S1,595.44. The gross in
come from each cow actually in milk
was s147.6O, the expense s99.19, leaving
q net income per cow of S4s.61, or. for
herd of % cows, a net gain of 81 1885.

o third Of his words were hardly under.
standable, there remained in the Madison
Square Garden hardly moro than one-half Of
those who had assembled in the early evening.
This half was not enthusiastic. What little
applauding it did was Of the half-hearted kind
that is so easily distinguishable from genuine
enthusiasm.
At no time during the evening had tho Gar
den been filled. At the very start there were
twenty-oue empty boxes: the upper gallery was
not more than two-thirds full, and there were
vacant seats here and there in the first gallery
back Of the boxes. The exodus from the build
ing had begun within five minutes after the
orator had begun to make his speech. For the
first twenty minutes the shutting OF feet could
be heard in every part OF the building. 1t
seemed that the people had only gathered to
satisfy their curiosity about this man who had
carried great National Convention by storm;
that it had not intended to stay unless he came
up to expectations, and that his failure to do
that had brought instantaneous disappolnt-
ment and disgust
1t Is fair to the Boy Orator TO say that II was
hot and uncomfortable in tho big garden; that
perhaps many would have stayed to further
satisfy their curiosity had 1t not been for this.
But this much Is certain. never before did .

o'clock, when fat man with big voice, who
had q seat just back of the platform, leaped up
and, swinging his arms about his head. roared ::
Three cheers for William J. Bryan, the next
President of the United States"
He gave the first cheer all by himself. Half o

voice that was heard not only inside but out
