An important experiment viii shortly
be made in England. with the object of
forming settlements of women in differ
ent parts of the country for the cultlva-
ton of the land. and thus enabling them
to add to their incomes by the sale of

Countess of Warwick. and an institution
will be opened in connection with Read
ing college in October. where they may
be trained specially for the work. 1t
Will be founded for the definite purpose
of enabling women over the age of III to

and PRACTICAL in the lighter branches of
agriculture, viz: Flower and fruit grow
ing. and packing for market. especially

bee and poultry keeping and dairy work.
The council of Reading college has con
scented to provide the necessary courses
of instruction. and to recognize the
Countess of Warwick's hostel as Il place
of residence for women students. The
full course of instruction will extend over
two years. but those who wish to do So
may join the short courses and special
classes. 1t is hoped that the inclusive

Every wheelman knows the boon that
this track Is 10 the wheeling interests Of
the city. 1t was built and is kept up by
popular subscription. The track is now
in need of money. It is well recognized
that the wheelmen are a generous-spirited
fraternity, and that each is DESTROYS Of
doing his Guty. The officers of the league
feel that in most. If not every. instance.
lack Of information as to where to sub
scribe is ali that deters those who nave
not heretofore done so; that it is only
necessary that they should know that the
money is needed and just where TO con-
tribute Subscriptions should be sent or

10 improve the track to the extent Of the

tary. 1t is no great sacrifice TO make,
and the league feels that every wheelman
should regard it as his privilege as well
as duty not to stand back waiting until
later to assist, but 10 come forward
promptly, and let it be seen that the
wheelmen, at least. are not lacking IN
that public spirit, liberalty and co-opera-
ton which is too often imputed TO our
citizens by those who would endeavor TO
abuse without assisting. Immediate sub
sCriptiOns are solicited.

The editor says fashionable folk always

manner which will prove an eternal boon
20 humanity The great invention, which
people have for so many ages needed. Is
built pretty much on plan or lady

knob on IT, You stick the metal part
through the cob, piercing the husk length
wise and then. grabbing the knob, yon
proceed TO dispose Of the grain. OF course
IL you have so much money that ii is a
burden 10 yOu-a chronic complaint now
a-days-you can buy the handsomest kinds
of corn-holders. Frequently the spear
part Of the appliance is made Of silver,
while the knob is jewelled or wrought in
ivory While you are not supposed to eat
the invention. II adds greatly TO the flavor
Of the corn. l have bought a gross OF

is 10 CnshrOud yourself In table cloths

and then defy the trickling butter and
adhesive salt. with which you have sea-
soned the food What matters it If lit
tie grease lubricates your features or the
salt encircles your mouth. You are happy
and not a grain Of the corn
escapes you. When You get through with
the husk the prodigal son wouldn't stand
tho ghost of a chance with it, That's my
idea about eating corn. I'm willing TO
wash my face IN cream and lemon juice
