A clever old lady, possessed of the inestim-
abl. advantages of worldly experience, must
submit nevertheless to the laws of nature.

Halt an hour later Linley opened the door
OF his drawing-ro0n. His wife was still
sleeping. His mother-in-law awoke two
hours later, looked at her watch, and discoy-
cred that she had lost her opportunity. 9th
er Old women, under similar circumstances,
might have felt discouraged. This old wo-
saan believed in her W suspicious more de-
v0utly than ever. When the breakfast pcii
rang Sydney found Mrs. Presty in the CORR
dor waiting to say good-morning.
Il wonder what you were doing last night,
when you ought to have been in bed?' the
old lady began, with a treacherous amiability
of manner. "Oh, i am not mistaken! Your
door was open, my dear, and l looked In"

"Admiring the moonlight"
"Yes; admiring the moonlight"
"Alone, Of course?' Sydney's friend sug-
gssted.
And Sydney took refuge in prevarication.
"Why should you doubt itg' she said.
Mrs. Presty wasted no more time In askins
questions. She was pleasantly reminded OF
the words Of worldly wisdom which she had
addressed to her daughter on the day of sgd
ney's arrival al Mount Moryen. 1.-THE good

Benton Harbor, Mich, Jan. l6.-For
several months MANI burglaries
throughout this county have baffied the
officials. No clews were Obtained till
a few days ago. when Orr Stanley was
arrested, charged with grand larceny,
Frank Davenport. who is also in jail
for burglary, declared that Stanley ex-
ercised hypnotic powers over him.
Stanley, he said. had power 10 hypno-

him. The robber would know no fear
nor have any knowledge of his actions
during hypnosis.
Stanley reluctantly a proof of his
powers in the jail corridors, compelling
his subject to eat salt. thinking 1t was

sweetheart. The hypnotist is said to
have escaped from the Michigan City
Jail by the use of his power. His extra
ordinary intelligence has been a great
aid to him in evading the officers.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS.

More hay and less grain makes the
farm easier to handle.
With good roads the farmer will have
q better choice of markets.
The cost of keeping good animal Is
little more than a poor one.
Save all of the wood ashes. They
make a good fertilizer for small fruits
or potatoes.
Keep the manure hauled out during
the winter, applying on the field where
it is most needed.
The more 4 mich COW will assimilate
in excess of what is required for main
tenance the better.
Cleanliness is as essential as shelter
and food. Stock will not eat wet fcd-
der TO an advantage.
No matter how good pedigree an
animal may have, individual merit and
good conditions are essential.
The principal advantage in using salt
rs a fertilizer is that it helps to make
plant food in the air available.
With quite number of farm prod
ucts, low prices are caused not so much
by overproduction as by poor quality.

remain within reach after the appetite

WHY Leave TIE FARM7

q Sensible Talk fer Boys WAC DO Not
Like Agricultural Life.
A great many people are wanting to
get away from the farm because farm
ing has ceased to be very remunerative.
But if they fee to town or to the city,
hoping to find moro remuneratiye en-
ploymeut, they are certain to be dis
appointed. The city is full of idle
bookkeepers, and would-be clerks and
helpers OF all descriptions. For every
vacancy that occurs 20 men stand ready
to fill it, and that at salary that V j
not admit of much, if any, surplus after
living expenses are paid. For tie man
even well qualified for positions in the
bity, the prospect at present is gloomy,
as there are DO vacancies. But for the
man unqualified by way of education
and special training there is at present
no promise whatever of fat jobs in the
city.
There is no reason why boy raised
on the farm should make farmer, if
he has no taste for farm life. But be-
fore starting out into the world, he must
qualify himself well for the position to
which he aspires. The towns and cities
are dependent on the farms for fresh
and vigorous manhood. and it would

Moods Cnrcful Investigation.

Dealing in futures" is system that
should be carefully investigated by con-
press. Some maintain that it is an ad-
vantage to farmers, while others as
sert that it depresses prices while prod
ucts are held by the producers, the rise
in prices going to class which simply
deposit certain sums as wagers on the
results. There is no doubt, however, as
long as the system exists there will con-
tinue to be an uncertainty in prices, and
that the farmer will be compelled to
suffer all the losses, but will not share
In the profits. Much of the business
done by the manipulators Of wheat and
other grains is not based on the articles
at all, as it frequently happens that
more grain is sold than exists In the
