CHAPTER II.

The advent of these unexpected honors
seemed almost as incredible to the re-
cipient of them as to Jane Warner, and
when the news was suddenly conveyed to
him that a few short hours had uuenched
the lives of both the young baronet and
his son, and bestowed on himself title,
lands, and money, he turned sick and
faint with the shock. He was only %,
though rather old and blase for his age,
as young men left to their own devices
in London are apt to be; and with one
turn of her wheel tickle goddess had
transformed him to an independent man.
1t was enough to turn a stronger head
than Wilfrid Ewells.
The morning following his letter to Jane
Warner, he walked by appointment into
the office of the solicitor, Mr.. Parftt,
and was received by that gentleman with
open arms.
MY dear Sir Wilfrid, charmed to see
you. So sorry [ was out when you called
yesterday. Come about making some ar
rangement with regard to Lambscote,
conclude? All! yes. Quite right. Had a
letter from the widow this morning-poor
young creature! Very sad, of course;
but these things are to be expected-eh,
Sir Wilfrid?'
''Well, I didn't expect it, Mr.. Parftt.
Poor Bob was always so healthy and
well, you know. I am sure, the last time
l was staying at Lambscote he remind
ed me more of Harry the Eighth than of
any one else"
.sAh! corpulent--rosy-ful habit-detcr-
mination Of blood to the head. A consti-
tuition very much to be avoided, Sir VIII
frid. am glad to observe that Jon don't

ATCHlSON GLOBE SIGHTS.

We hear great deal about philos-
ophers. 1t is our opinion that there
never was one.
Two men cannot be friends very
long who entertain opposite opinions
about baseball club.
What has become of the old-fash-
Toned What-Not, formerly the most
prominent piece of parlor furniture?
People who are young, and fat, and
prosperous, wonder why the old and
unfortunate are not more patient.
Well bet that we can spend week
in a kitchen, and cook better than half
the women who hire out as cooks.
Every man is secretly proud If his
beard is stiff, and hard to cut; he be-
lieves a stiff beard means more of a
man.
The most pitiful ease of slavery in
the world is where an old bachelor
marries a widow with a lot Of grown
children.
Lying is expected in a politician as
much as in a circus man, a hunter, or
a fisherman, and nobody pays any
more attention to II.
A woman who has the courage to 20
to dentist, and have four teeth pulled,
should have the courage to get rid of
undesirable visitors.
A policeman is about the only man
whose advice is always taken: If a
man does not take policeman's ad.
vice, he is locked up.
No man is SO worthless that he Is
not an effective gossip: people will not
take his note, but they take his word
for a scandalous story.
There is a good deal to be said in
favor of the man who goes fishing; it
is so much better to fish than it is to
loaf around busy friends.
When a man commits great crime,
there is a good deal of sympathy for
him, but let him commit a little folly,
and how the people give it to him!
Our idea of good luck is to have coun-
try people think so much of you that
they come in for you on Sunday, take
YOU out to Sunday dinner, and bring
you back again.
Dry goods deserves the credit for
much of the attractiveness Of women.
A blue sash properly used is as effect
i've as blue eyes, and white dress is
prettier than pearly teeth.
Old people are often fretful and
seemingly unreasonable because they
are sick. The young should remember
this. After a man is sixty years old,
he is simply lot Of decaying matter
waiting for burial.
Kansas products will bring more
money this year than ever before in
the history of the state.
Last year Jewell county, Kansas,
raised more corn than any other coun-
ty in the world: eleven million bushelA
This year 1t viii raise twelve million
bushels, thus breaking the worlds rec.
ord twice in succession.

Father Held for Murder.

Fred Hicken, over whose head hangs
the charge of murder of his 5-year-old son
at Fond du Lac. has been captured at Tip
ON. He professed ignorance of any CRIME,
but was taken to the Jail, where he was
forced to admit he had a quarrel with his
mother and for that reason had departed
from home. Chief Sullivan kept his man
in ignorance Of the crime which over
hangs his head.

CLEANING THE STABLE.

An Autumn Duty Which No Da1ryman
Should Neglect.
Besides keeping the COW stable clean
day by day when used, there should be
athorough annual cleaning, and there is
no time when it can be better done
than at this season of the year. In this
process the whole stable should be
emptied and all remnants of fodder,
manure and litter be carried away. The
whole. stable is then to be kept clean,
including corners, cracks and crevices
in walls and floor, and all cobwebs be
removed. The sweepings and litter
should be buried beneath the manure
heap or plowed under. If there is NOW
for coarse folders over the stable, with
cracks or holes in the ceiling above
the stalls, any remaining fodder in the
NOW should be removed and all swept
clean. After cleaning the stable scrub
all woodwork with hot water and then
whitewash it. BY whitewashing, the
stable becomes lighter and more cheer
ful, the woodwork is preserved, and the
development of heterogeneous to i'm
pure future milk, is checked. If any
contagious disease has appeared in the
stable, then it should be thoroughly dis
infected. Evil micro-organisms are so,
plentiful in filthy stable that it is i'm
possible to even get one milking fronf'
a COW within it without having themilk
we'll charged with these destructive, in
visible organisms of evil portent.-Prac-

"Why don't you give that son of yours a
chance?" asked one business veteran of an
other. fHe must inherit some of your SUI
perior business qualities and the time will
come when you must have some one to look
after your affairs. He can't manage them
without the necessary training"
Don't you suppose that have canvassed
the whole situation? have let that boy
handle small fortune, and the results have
been so unsatisfactory that have given him
formal notice to look out for himself -.
but he seems to have plenty Of money"
That's another thing I don't like. I have
cut Oft his. his he lives well and
thought would have to put up the Office
blinds for want Of ready cash. My collater-
ais were not available and creditors were
pushing me. The boy walked into the Office

spair, said: Things lookin'' blue, governor p

were stored I notified the health depart

afterward that he had patent process for

PIGS AND THEIR CARE.

Do not let your hogs bed in old filthy
sheds, nor about straw, dirt or manure
piles.
Don't waste any roots or apples. No
food does winter hogs more good than
such food, because it acts as laxitive.
A hog in the torment of itching with
out the pleasure of scratching, seems
very uncomfortable. Set up post for
him to rub upon.
All grain fed to hogs should be per.
fectly sound. Heated or moldy. corn
will cause intestinal worms and bring
on attacks of diarrhoea.
The hog, like the buckwheat berry,
fills best when the cool nights come.
When the pig points porkward, push
him along toward the barrel. - -
Keeping swine around the home and
farm buildings, as you would house
dogs, is like trying to make farm hands
Of tramps; they become unmitigated
nuisances, of no use to themselves nor
to anyone else.
Stop for hog feed at night should be
prepared in the morning, and that for
the morning feed should be prepared at
night. 1t will become softened by be-
ing kept, and the temperature of the
feed will generally be- better Rural

Too Much StOraxe Room.

One of the things which did, which
may have bad consequences, was to give
too much room for the storage of sur
plus honey. It did not seem to be too
much at the time, but storing having
ceased, or nearly so, I am likely to have
a great lot of unfinished sections. lam

now as if these will not be filled, and so
there is small chance that the sections

may turn out to be an Improbable one
