we have known very little OF the suffer-
ings of Il heated term, rs they are expe-
rienced in the cities. While thousands
OF city residents have been gasping for
breath in narrow streets or on sun-baked
roofs. few Oxford Bears have been so
situated that they could not swing In
hammock in the shade Of natures trees
or stretch upon the cooling grass after
the fiery sun had dropped below the
horizon, and the breathless night had
come down; or disport themselves in the
comforting waters of lake or stream.
Verify. after all, Oxford County, is
pretty good place TO spend the heated
term.

KcmnrknbIe Bird Story.

A sparrow few into one of the large
rooms at the Burlington shops at Bur
lington, Ia, the other day, and, getting
too near one of the wheels, was sucked
in. The workmen saw it and supposed
that it was instantly killed, as the wheel
was revolving at the rate of 100 revolu-
tions a minute. When the machinery
was shut down at noon gentle chirp
was heard from the wheel, and when one
of the workmen looked the sparrow was
there, still alive. 1t had clung to the
strengthening rod inside the wheel, and
was so dazed it could not fly. 1t was
picked up and placed on table, where
1t recovered in short time and few
away. The wheel made $1,000 revolu-
tions while the bird was clinging to it,
and the sparrow had travelled more than
T3 miles in that manner.

/ first conceived the idea of locating
the post Just outside the roadway, in
the grass, using the double swinging
IRON arm, with its snatfle, to hold the
horse off from the grass. This works
well with most horses, but some will
throw the arm completely up over the
top of the post, and so get on to the
grass with all four feet. This is OBJ
waited by using the chain, as shown in
the cut. This permits the arm to rise
just far enough to reach the bride of
the horse, with play enough SO that he
:an move his head freely, but does not
permit him to throw it over upon the
other side of the post.
This device of using an arm to keep
the horse away from the post accom-
plishes more than the preservation of
the grassy sod. 1t keeps the horse from
gnawing and disfiguring the post, and
from rubbing his bride and other parts
pf his harness against it-often to the
verious injury of the harness.-Country
Gentleman.

INDIAN CHIP CARVING.

Note that this cutting down does not
mean drawing the knife down the line,
but simply pressing it down onto tho
line, When cutting down a line which
is longer than the knife the point must
be pressed into the center and drawn
down the line. Proceed in the same way
with lines B, c and D, and so on with
all the squares.
In cutting down these lines the blade
of the knife must be pressed perfectly
straight into the wood or the point is
liable to break. Then put the point of
your knife in at E, keeping the blade
nearly fiat against the wood, and draw
it down the line F, gradually pressing
the point into the center of the square,
SO as to entirely detach the triangular
piece of wood. 1t will be seen by dia-
gram G that when all these triangular
pieces (G) have been taken line of
diamond-shaped pieces will be left,
Then with the point ofyour knife make
small straight cut in each side of the
diamond, slanting toward the center,
and small slanting cut into the
straight one diamond D), and you will
have a very pretty and effective little
border.
The depth of the pattern described
should be about one-eighth of an inch
in the deepest parts.-C Chicago News.

AMONG THE POULTRY.


Burn bones and feed them to good
fowls.
Sour food is the worst think chick.
en- can have.
AS rule the better the scratchcr the
better the layer.
Feed milk and bran for growth. and
milk and cornmeal for fat.
Fifty fowls at most is as many as
should be kept in one flock.
Dry picked poultry nearly always
sells for little the best prices.
Do not allow the fowls to get their
living by scratching over manure pile.
Separate the cocks from the hens,
They will moult better if kept separate,
Eggs may be increased in size and
richness by proper feeding of the fowls,
Give the laying hens plenty of exer-
else. An idle hen is never good layer.
In many cases too many hens that
have passed their usefulness are kept,
The best floor for a poultry house is
dry earth, if it can be kept clean and
dry.
The hen ceases to lay when improp-
erly fed, or when in a diseased condi.
tion.
In arranging the poultry quarter
provide busting and scratching place
where the fowls can have an opportun.
ity to exercise during the winter.-St,
Louis Republic.

Enrly Dnyn OF Ilentucky,

Kentucky was formerly part of vir-
ginia, and was settled by virginians,
who took with them their slaves, their
agricultural habits and their military
spirit. With the consent of Virginia,
Kentucky was separated from that state
and admitted to the union in 1899. The
people Of this country have generally
emigrated in pretty straight lines to the
westward. AS Virginians broke over the
mountains into Kentucky, so North
Carolinians crossed into the valleys OF
Tennessee. North Carolina gave up her
right to the territory west of the noun
tains soon after the constitution was
formed, and what is now Tennessee was
part of the Southwestern Territory, un-
til 1t was admitted 70 the union in 17oe

own birthday. All were asked to come
in Dutch dress.
The little maid received her guests in
a gown of old-fashioned figured red cal.
leo, which was made with round waist
and full-gathered skirt coming to the
floor. The sleeves were small elbow
puffs.
The cap of the little maid was tight
fitting to the head and finished around
the neck with white ruffle in true
Dutch girl fashion.
The feast was served upon blue Dutch
delft and the little hostess gave to each
guest delft souvenir.

Jack Was Making Money in Ways of
His Own Choosing.


"Why don't you give that son of yours
chance" asked one business veteran of an
other "He 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. Sie can't manage them
without the necessary training"
Don't you suppose that l have canvassed
the whole situation? l 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 don't like. Ihave
cut off his allowance, yet he lives well and
never enters a complaint. Last spring
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
one afternoon when Twas in the throes of de-
spair, said: Things lookin' blue, GOVERNOR
laid down a certified check for $4,000 and
walked out. | owe him that yet, but am
holding it back till | can see that he needs
it. When gave him money to buy wheat
and told him how the market was liable to
go, he ignored my advice and bought mil
lions of eggs; right in the midst Of hot
weather, mind you. On learning where they
were stored | notified the health depart
ment and requested some of those in the vi.
cinity to bring proceedings when the nuis-
sance asserted itself. / learned incidentally
afterward that he had patent process for
preserving eggs and cleared up big pot of
money. Wheat hadn't gone the way pre-.
dicted, but it was his business to do as |
told him. Recently he made $500 at some
shooting game. | don't know just what it
was, but one of his friends said that Jack

There is danger in many apparently
harmless articles, and fly paper seems
to be one of these. A family, having
been greatly troubled with flies, dis.
tributed lot of sticky fly papers around
the house. The next day, little boy
just learning to walk, while at play,
tripped and fell, his face sticking on a
piece of the fly paper. The parents
were out of the room, and the little one,
in trying to remove the paper, only
succeeded in getting it tightly sealed
around his mouth and nostrils, thus
shutting off his breath. BY the merest
chance the mother happened in and
saved the child from suffocation. Even
then it was necessary to cut holes in the
paper hurriedly to allow breathing until
the paper could be soaked off.

FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.
If 4 WE'RE YOU.

fl little girl could be,
Well-just like you,
With lips as rosy, cheeks as fair.
Such eyes of blue, and shining hair,
What do you think I'd do?
I'd wear so bright and sweet smile,
I'd be so loving all the while,
I'd be so helpful with my hand,
So quick and gentle to command,
You soon would see
That everyone would turn to say:
"'Tis good to meet that child to-day"
Yes, yes, my bird, that's what I'd do
If were you.
Or, If / CHANGED to be q boy,
Like some / know;
With crisp curls sparkling in the sun,
And eyes all beaming bright with fun
All, If could be so,
I'd strive and strive with all my might
TO be so true, so brave, polite,
That in me each one might behold
"A hero-as In the days Of old.
'Twould be Joy
To hear one, looking at me, say:
my cheer and comfort all the day"
Yes, If were boy know
would be so.
But now, perhaps, you'd ask of me:
When 1t was you
Who had the young and merry face,
With smiles and roses all in place,
Tell us, what did you do%"
iAh, dearies! If ever fell
Far short Of doing wisely, we'll

HER scoLDING LOCKS.
She Tried to Oblige n Friend But She
Got Angry About 1t,

Some people are absolutely devoid of tact,
One of these is youthful matron who,
wishing to make her very dearest friend
another young matron-a birthday present,
decided on the purchase of a handsome pair
of shell side combs.
Nothing could have been more appropri-
ate for the blonde tresses Of her friend, and
the giver felt much pleased with her selec-
tion when she went to call on her and give
her the pretty ornaments.
Il thought you would like them" she
said, when her friend had admired them and
thanked her rapturously, you will find them
80 handy to fasten up your scolding locks"
What do you mean!" asked her friend, in
a surprised tone.
"Did you never hear of scolding locks?
They are the short ends of your hair that
are always flying loose. They bother one
SO much, but side combs keep them in or
der, besides being very becoming orna-
ments."
$50 you think have scolding locks-then
l must be a scold Thanks, awfully, dear,
but don't believe | need any combs Keep
them for your own scolding outfit" and the
face of the dearest friend" clouded with
anger.
VERY well, just as you like. Good-by,
DEAR" and the donor of the combs snatched
them up and carried them home, where she
had, a fit of Mysteries. And all because she
needed a little tact.-Chicago Times-Herald.
