Venice wtthout Water

Venice without water would hardly
be Venice at all, but we are assured
there is possibility that the pictur-
esIue Venice Of to-day may become a
city Of the past, and eventually Venice
may be waterless.
According to Prof. Marinelli, the reg
ular increase in the Gelta of the river
PO is such that in process of time the
northern Adriatic will be dry, and Ven
ice will no more be upon the sea. A
comparison of the Austrian map Of 1923
with the record of the surveys of 1898
shows that the mean annual increase of
the delta during these seventy years has
been three-tenths of square mile.
An encroachment upon the sea of
three-tenths of a mile in year means
large increase in a century. 1t ap-
pears that the total increase IL six cen
turies has been about one hundred and
ninety-eight square miles. The increase
is continuing. and the Gulf Of Venice is
doomed to disappear.
No immediate alarm need be felt, and
1t will not be necessary to hurry off to
Venice to take a farewell look at the
city in its present picturesqueness. Prof.
Marinelli calculates that between hun
dred and hundred and twenty centu-
ries will elapse before the entire north
ern Adriatic will have become dry land.

THE GOLDEN TEMPER.
This Is the Philosophers Stone OF q
WOman's Domestic Life.

This Is the Philosophers Stone OF
woman's Domestic Life.
"The art of being companionable is a
secret worth finding out, even if it
takes time and patience to learn it,"
affirms Mary Stuart Mckinney in the
Woman's Home Companion. "SOme
people are born with the happy knack.
There is Il spontaneous gaiety that you
expect women to have, just as you ex-
pect the birds to sing and the sun to
shine. Many very bad quarter of an
hour has been averted in the domestic
circle by a bright laugh or gay re-
joinder. The laugh may be saucy and
the rejoinder a bit of verbal buffet, but
If it is only done goOd-naturedly it will
be all the more effective. 1t used base
ly to be said of men that the only way
to make them happy was to feed them
well. That could only have applied TO
Il small and commonplace minority. OF
course, no one wants an uninterrupted
round of even the most brilliant smiles
any more than he would wish to make
three meals a day off meringueS and
biscuits glaces, but it is safe to say that
countless numbers of willing and de-
lighted masculine captives may be led
ty the lighteSt chains that gaiety and
good-humor can forge. One result of a
great deal of the imperfect education
that is dealt out by the handful nowa-
days is that some women are apt to set
undue value on mere book learning and
the gift of controversy. This kind of
n person looks upon your little poke as
beneath her dignity. and she treats you
10 Il somber harangue on the necessity
of having serious views of life at the
moment when You are striving to look
at things cheerfully i'll an effort To for
get cares and anXieties. 1t is Il wom-
ans privilege to tighten the shadows
and be all that is gracious and bright
on the ornamental side of life. 1t is
good plan to let much learning sit rs
lightly as possible and to get into the
hi BIT of making little troubles pass like
little ripples in sunny river.

Spelling o Husband.

We often bear, says writer in the
Chicago Democrat, of the wife that is
spoiled by an Over-indulgent husband,
still more frequently of the spoiled
child, who Is nuisance to every one.
but the husband who is spoiled is not
so much in evidence.
He exists, nevertheless, and is in his
way as utterly Objectionable as either
of the other two.
\ husband can be spoiled by various
methods. He can be SO overwhelmed
by a thousand and one attentions of
love and kindness on the part of his
wife that he accepts this role of divin-
ity as 4 matter of course, and becomes
the incarnation of seliishness; or he
can be made to become nonenity by
the overbearing conduct of dictatorial
wife, who keep the reins of govern
ment in her own hands and drives all
vestiges of manhood out Of her hus-
hand

sOvereigns for the man who first bids
$4,000" Nobody bids. A pause, and
then: Fifty golden sovereigns for the
man who first bids f4,9OO." This is
kept up until bid is secured. But it
by no means follows that the house is
sold to this bidder. No, the auctioneer
is then at it again. Say that "a, 400 Is
the first bid. The auctioneer cries:
'.II'here are twenty-five golden SOW
ereigns for the first man who has the
courage to bid f4.6OO." Perhaps no
one has it. Then f25 pounds Is offered
for f4,550 bid. If there is eventually
no bid above the 81, 400 the man who

A succre.ru, Farmer.

Within three miles rof the tcwn. go-
| ing eastward. is the farm of Mr.. w.
Creamer one of the municipalities
largest and most prosperous mixed
farmers. Mr.. Creamer came TO this
country in 1850 and settled on por-
ton of the land which comprises his
present enormous farm of l.2SO acres.
In common With many others OF Il
similar period he experienced all the
hardships and difficulties common TO rhe
absence of railway and market facili-
lies. In nowise daunted. by energy.
industry and indomitable will he has
been able Ia sGrmount all obstacles
and has achieved an unparalleled sue
cess. and is known throughout the dis
trict as one of lis pre-eminent farmers.
His operations extend over 1,2S0 acres.
two sections tthe thought alone of so
much land makes the Eastern farmer
dizzy: S00 acres of this is broken and
the remainder is excellent pasture land
and wood. This harvest he took off a
crop of 500 acres of wheat and 200 of
other grains. -Four hundred acres are
plowed and ready for wheat next
spring Mr.. Creamer is. rs has been
stated. a mixed farmer Of no mean pro
portions, having at the present time
40 horses 60 head of cattle and 81 pigs.
The most modern farm buildings are
found on his premises. the main build
ing being barn - feet square on n
stone foundation. containing stabling
for IL horses and large number of
cattle. The loft is stored with 29 loads
of sheaf oats for feed and tons of hay;
there is also a cutting box. Another
building of large dimensions is the
granary. in which. after teaming large
quantities TO market, he still has stored
5000 bushels of wheat. A crushing ma
c.tine is in the building. There are a
number of lesser buildings containing
chicken house, pig pens and cattle
sheds. The farm residence is a hand
some frame structure of ample pro-
portions, in connection with it is 4
wood shed. The water supply is uneX-
celled; besides house supply there is 4
well in the stables and never failing
spring situated in bluff. which never
freezes. Surrounded by thick bluff
of poplarS, extending in Il semi-circle
to the west. north and east, the win
ter storms are broken and accumula-
tion OF snow unknown. Added 10 his
farming operations. Mr.. Creamer con-
duets threShing outfit for the season.
His success is an instance of what can

FEEDING THE WOLF.
Avarice Ruined Their Home Life and
Killed Their Mofher

HA'"a hNS ANuahS0 AstIC anu
Killed Their Mother.
There stood on the kitchen shelf in
the old farmhouse where | was born"
said New York business man. in the
Youths Companion, "A stone wolf with
slot in its back. Into this slot went
the savings of the family, cent by cent.
Once Il month my father unscrewed
the VOLTS back and took out the mon
ey. 1t all went to buy land to add to
our farm. He had an ambition to be
known as large landholder, and
everything was sacrificed to that.
The milk. the vegetables and the
beef which the farm produced We're
sold. and we children We're fed upon
the refuse. We grew up pale. weak
and sickly. and the money saved went
into the VOLTS stomach.
my father had good income. but
my mother did all the work without
help. At 40 she was an old woman.
Once or twice she asked for n weeks
holiday or little trip to the city.
Father would consent, and then he
would convince her Of the extrava-
gance of the plan. She begged that we
might be sent to college. but father
talked SO much about the expense that
she dropped the matter. She used to
long for 4 magazine or book to read.
for Il chance TO hear music. for some
escape from the deadly barrenness of
our life, but it was never given to her.
The cost always had to be reckoned
first. and the wolf got the money.
The home life, which might have
been wholesome and attractive, was
hard, greedy and cruel. My mother
died, worn out with working to feed
that hungry wolf. BY and by rail-
road was built which helped otherparts
of the country at the expense of our
own neighborhood. The value of the
farm decreased, and father was left
with a lot of worthless land on his
hands. We had sacrificed all that was
best in life for it and we got no re-
turn"
There are few American families in
which petty avarice is a marked char
acteristic, but there are many in which
thrift is misdirected. and what should
be only n means is allowed TO become
an end. The frugality which looks to-
ward Il realization of nobler aims and
the attainment of a broader and richer
life is worth every effort and selfsac-
rifice, but the boarding which starves
body and soul merely to add acre to
acre. or to pile one useless dollar upon
another, is pinnacle of folly to which
no creature but man has ever arisen.
