GLAD SHE DIDN'T YELL.

uniting Suicide.

A certain East end man delights in doing
odd jobs about his home. He cuts his grass
and trims the walks, and handles a paint
brush like an old master. Carpenter tools
come handy to him, too, and the sound of his
merry saw makes pleasant music for the
neighbors, who have no objection to being
awakened early. In short, he is clever all
round workman, and decidedly handy to
have about the house.
One day not long ago the woman of the
house next door happened to come out on her
back porch. There she casually looked over
the low fence into the handy mans yard.
What she saw scared her so that she couldn t
move hand CT foot The handy man was ly-
ng prone on his back, his body concealed
beneath his porch, but with his face in strong
relief. lie was very pale, his hair was dis
ordered, and his eyes were rolled up and
fixed in CHASTITY intentness. Against his
weapon that glistened as ray of light
touched it,
The woman on the porch tried to scream,
and couldn't. She knew the handy man was
committing suicide.
He painted, his face grew red, and his form
seemed convulsed.
The woman on the porch caught her agon-
horse power yell when she heard the sup.
posed suicide anXiOus)y ask
Isn't it through YETI
Eyes" said a voice from above, "it been
yoost through
About this time the woman on the porch
understood that the handy man was boring
an auger hole through the floor of his porch
that the deadly weapon was an auger, and
that the hired girl was on hand to watch
the operation.
Then the woman on the porch was glad she
didn't yell.-Cleveland Plain Dealer

If b;liousness isn't the bully Of the body
then what is? When once biliousness gets
the upper hand you don't dare say your
stomach is your own. Don't you dare eat

what I'll do.'' You take the dare and you
do see or rather feel, the weight of the
bully's revenge. The head aches, not a
regular ache, but an open and Shut ache.
The eyes ache. not with dull, tired ache,
but with an aggressive ache, as il they were
being bored by a gimlet. The stomach

CrON Statisties.

This country has little to boast of in
respect to the reliability of it's crop
statistics. We make progress along
many lines, but errors in estimate of
harvested crops remain as glaring as
they were 20 years ago. When the
farmer has his wheat in the granarv,
and should know the amount of this
grain in the country available for
home consumption and export, there
are no statistics at hand that he NAV
depend upon with a degree of conf
dence. Our government estimates may
be in error fifty or seventy five millions
OF bushels, as total movement of wheat
before the next harvest has shown
them to be in the past. This looseness
OF estimate leaves one wholly at sea in
such season as this one, when the
crop on hand is possibly inadequate to
the needs of the market, and the future
price hinges upon the pres ence or ab-
scnce of d very limited quantity of
grain. If our statistics were sufficient
~ reliable to enable us to know
within d few millions of bushels how
much wheat was now in this country,
we would have data that might be
worth great sum to those of us that
have our old crops ON hand. But past
experience proves that government es-
Inmates of stored grain are only huge
guesses, as indeed they must be when
there is no paid machinery for getting
at the facts Cheap work is naturally
poor work, and all the money that goes
into this work of crop-estimates is paid
to few men who draw high salaries
and work over the gucsses of men who
receive no pay and can not afford to
gather the actual facts. 1t is a loose
piece of business, and the farmers are
ceasing TO trust it. We do not want to
be left dependent upon the reports is
sued ny grain-dealers, and some more
accurate plan for getting the data
should be devised. This plan should
include sworn returns from all thresh
ermen, in the case of threshed grains,
which would be nearly invaluable, and
the rapid gathering of other data by
paid expets.-Farm and Fireside.

he should enjoy. Workshops and tools
for wood and iron and leather should
be as distinctive feature of every
farm as land and fences, barns and
stocks, vehicles and implements. Be-
cause no farm can be run without
mechanical labor, farmer should, as
far as possible, have practical training
founded upon scientific principles. Ali
our agricultural and mechanical col
leg es give to the students of agricul
tural science preliminary course in
mechanical and civil engineering. We
believe that even more attention should
be given to mechanical science in the
agricultural course. Some alleged sci
entific farmers cant make a hoe handle
or an AK helvc. Their education is in
complete: these simple auxiliaries are
as necessary as any principle involved
in crop or stock growing. Agricul-
tural chemistry and animal pathology
are not all there is in farming. The
farmer, above all men, should have a
broad training as foundation for a
complete agricultural education. All
science and all art are tributary to sue
cessful farming. Crop growing is
merely an incident of the business.
