How to Treat the Hens During the Period
 of Matching.

How to Treat the Hens During the Peried
 Of Matching.
 If you wish to use hens to do the in- cubating it is good plan to have a room separate from the main house with not too much light. Make an effort to set as many hens at a time as possible. It will require but little more time and care to look after six hens than it will one. Two or three days is none too long for the hen to sit on china or nest eggs before giving the ones you wish her to hatch. She will have become accustomed to the place, will have shaped the nest to her notion, and will have it nice and warm. Give each hen as many eggs as she can con- veniently cover. Watch them care fully for two or three days to see that there are no eggs left to get cold. Dur ing the first AS hours the hen should sit perfectly quiet, says a poultryman, as it takes just that time to start the embryo chick on it's life voyage. We no- tice the hen seldom leaves the nest or turns the egg during this time. After they have sat quietly for four or five days, prepare yourself with more fresh eggs, and go in the evening with a good light and tester and test each egg A little practice will soon enable you to pick out the infertile ones. When you have completed your work, give each hen the number you wish her to cover Fair sized hens should have II, never more than 15. On the average, hens will hatch more vigorous chicks from Il eggs than any higher number.
 We might go on through the 21 days and describe the eggs as we have broken them and seen the spider-like little animal, and noticed the pulsa ton of the heart, etc., but we will leave this for the incubator people. Finally on the 20th day the impris- oned chick has drawn it's last nutri- tion from the egg, it's vital heat and circulating blood have absorbed every particle of the substance of the egg, and there remains only the vigorous little animal anxious to get out. Its prison cell is punctured by thousands of pores that always break first at the bigger end of the egg, because it is al ] ways less moist and more brittle at that end. There, too, the head of the little chick is turned for air, and the beak breaks through the rotten wall, finds more fresh air, presses hard in l that direction, and soon breaks away from all feeble resistance, and thus ends the period of it's incubation 1 Farmers Voice.

Prices of Persian Brides.

A young girl in some of the Persian tribes costs her first husband one hun dred tomans, or about three hundred dollars. Should the first husband die the second suitor must pay two hundred tomans before he can make the widow his own, and so on each time she marries, up to her tenth time. This ascending scale is because her value is supposed to increase as she gains greater experience as carpet weaver and housewife. The money is paid to her father, and if he is not living, to her nearest male relative.

ISlNGLASS MODELS.
A New Device to Enable Them to Show
 How Their Goods Look.

"A
 How Their Goods Look.
 A recent device of the tailors to lure customers into contracting bills is the figure of man done in isinglass, says the New York Sun. This figure is about foot high, and is set in square of cardboard Sometimes it is in the shape of a man wearing a sack suit, while in others he wears cutaway outfit, and in others again frock suit. The man himself is transparent as to body, but his face is painted on, and he wears collar and necktie of the latest style, in paint. He serves as an illus tration, and he is designed to do away with one of the banes of tailor's life, the man who comes in to look at goods and says:
 ''Ah, yes; it looks very nice in the piece, but I'm not sure it would suit me so well made up. I'll wait until you cut coat for some one else, and then I'll come around and see how I like it. :"
 Now when a customer springs this ancient remark the tailor produces one of his isinglass manikins, lays him over the piece of cloth in question, and To-! he stands forth fully clothed in a wrinkleless suit of that pattern. With a cloth of uniform color or small pat tern this device works very well, but in a large check or stripe the pattern is so greatly out of proportion to the size of the suit as shown on the model that the customer is likely to be affrighted by it's apparent loudness, and the wise tailor uses his isinglass figure only with the more modest designs of cloth.

seems. I know one customer of ours whose wardrobe of fur is worth S75,O ,OO0, and only the other day we made coat for s1O,OOO, and the trimming for the coat of another lady cost s5,000."
 "Then about fur coats for men. It looks as if they were becoming more popular. Is that sop
 ''It is, indeed. Even six or seven years ago Englishmen seemed ashamed to wear fur coats, and if you saw a man in such coat you set him down at once to be either an actor, an artist or a foreigner. That is no longer so, al though there are still good many men who are a little shy about the matter. They want a fur coat, but they don't want it to be recognized as such So they have coat lined with fur, but they don't have fur collar or cuffs. And since we have made it for years special feature to make fur coats fit, it is quite possible for a man to wear a fur-lined overcoat that looks exactly like an ordinary overcoat.
 ''The majority of men, however, do not mind it being noticed that they wear fur coats. And why should they? Surely man who goes out to his club or to dinner at night, in evening dress, which is much thinner than the clothes he wears during the day, requires fur coat. But mems coats are far less ex- pensive than ladies'. We make them up to 2,5OO or sS,OOO, but we also sell good coats, lined with muslzrat (which is the best fur for wear), at $50. That is our cheapest coat. The average price a man pays is from s25o to $500, but there again the collar and cuffs form an important part of the value."

FORTUNES IN FURS.
An English Furrier Gives Some
 Details of High Prices.
Coats of Fur That Cost S5,OOO Altered Every Year to Suit the Latest Fashion-Fine Wardrobe of
 Fur Worth S75,OOO.

Speaking of the s4,0O0 fur coat stolen from Lady Warwick, in connection with her description of herself as splendid pauper'' under the new Eng fish tax laws, furrier says to the Vest minister Budget:
 ''As a matter of fact, S4,0OO for lady's fur coat is absolutely nothing out of the way in our experience. On the contrary. it is rather low price for a fur coat of lady of means and of social position. There are large, num- bers of such ladies who wear fur coats of about s4, ,750 to jrst over S5,0O0, and now and again, not so very rarely, we make coat up to S7, 7,5OO."
 ''What kind of fur are these coats lined with?"
 ''There are three kinds of expensive fur-Russian sable, natural black fox and sea otter. But it is not the lining only that makes coat expensive. The trimming is another very valuable often the most valuable-part. Take set of Russian sable tails; that alone costs S40,000, nor is this surprising, since we pay s4Oo for one tiny skin as it comes to us straight from Russia, in an unprepared state.''
 ''Then, what constitutes such set?"
 Simply a plain front, collar and cuffs, and deep garniture round the coat. But remember how many tails go to such set, and remember, also, that this is the most beautiful fur that could possibly be had"
 q suppose coat like this lasts for ever?''
 ''It does last for many years, unless ladies are careless with it. But if you give them very hard wear and neglect them, it is only natural that they should soon be spoilt."
 But what about changes in fashion? Is the S5,000 fur coat worn whether it is made fashionable or not?"
 ''Oh, no; a great number of these coats come back to us every year to be altered according to the latest fashion
 Are your customers of this class very fastidious and troublesome about these costly garments?"
 ''No, not in the very least. Of course, there may be exceptions occasionally, but, on the whole, these ladies are far easier to please than many. They have confidence in us; they know that the firm would supply nothing but what was thoroughly good and genuine. It is the people who want an ancient seal skin jacket altered, or something of that kind, who often prove the most troublesome. They seem to think that we can put the fur back on the animal, md turn it, from being worn and rot ten, into new material. We do any thing which it is possible to do; but to turn old fur into new is beyond the limitation of even the cleverest fur rier.'
 ''To return to the splendid paupers fur. What constitutes a complete wardrobe of furs?"
 "A long coat, Q short one, perhaps d third, trimmed with fur, and a huff and cape Such wardrobe is worth several thousands, and you would be surprised to know how many ladies have such wardrobe. They look upon their furs as upon their jewels, ii

But, notwithstanding they are now in the city itself, there are few lots for sale yet at prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of a dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new cleo tric car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property. Inside of five years this will be business property.

BEAT THE DREXELS.
A Clever Rascal Worked Check For
gerry on Philadelphia Bankers.

TRENTON, Nov. 25.-It has just been
learned that through a series of forgeries
Drexel & Go. of Philadelphia have been
swinded out Of 5000, and another broker
of that city lost S4O0. The scheme was
worked in this way:
A letter purporting to have come from
William Baldorson, a reputable farmer of
Fallington, was sent to the First National
bank of Trenton, inclosing three notes to
Balderson' order and asking to have them
discounted and placed to his credit. This
was done by the board of directors last
Wednesday, and word to that effect was
sent to BaldersOn. He came to the bank
on Saturday and disclaimed any knowl-
stranger had gone to Drexel's with check
for 5000, apparently signed by Balderson
The brokers telephoned the First National
and asked If he was good for the amount
An affirmative reply was received.
Next day the check came to the First
National through the usual medium, and
Balderson being there at the time, pro-
nOunced it forgery. The other check for
S40O had been negotiated with a Philadel-
phia broker and afterward passed to the
Manufacturers bank of that city, coming
to the First National with Balderson's sig
naurc The two checks, aggregating 81,
600, We're within $50 of the amount of the
three notes originally asked for discount.
AS the First National has not cashed
either, the loss will fall on the Drexels and
the other Philadelphia broker, who first
hOnored them.

GREAT FOOTBALL GAMES.


NEW YORK, Nov. 90 - The football
game between Princeton and Yale was
perhaps the flercest ever witnessed on Man
haitian field and was attended by %, 900
persons. For the first time since 1898 and
for the fourth time since 1888 representa-
tive team from the Tigers college defeated
the sons Of Eli. The score was "a to 6,
and when it is added that Yale's 6 points
were scored on fluke the story has been
told, for never from the beginning of the
game till its end We're the men from New
Haven able to cope with their sturdy an
tagOnists.
The Yale eleven was clearly outplayed
at every point of football They did not
kick rs well, push as well or run as well
as the Tigers, and in their defensive play
weakness was their principal feature On
the other hand, the members of the Prince
ton team covered themselves with glory
and never for an instant did they stop
playing the hard game with which they
commenced, Princetons game was the
best put up by any team from old Nassau
since the famous 1898 team beat Yale.
