REPETITION OF DESTINY.

Into woodlands shade and shallow,
Where queer noises often gallow,
Many times this path I've trod,
On this narrow, wcllworn sod,
Leading in and out the twining,
OF the vines that still keep climbing,
Fen the MOSES grow to meet me,
And the snakes viii often greet me,
Long before my journeys DER,
Fer reach my homestead door.
When the frightened moon entrances,
Shining thro the leafy branches,
Bids me wonder where I'm walking,
What strange voices hear talking,
And my pathway seems to utter,
That strange tale the winds did usher,
Then in the same, sad mournful strain,
Tells that story to me again.
OF bloodshed. battles and human dust
On which tracd and always must
Centuries ago this path was here,
When Indians with their courageous cheer,
Led their fierce conflicts, and victories gained,
And with their poor Victims my pathway
stained.
Here were lain down their many lives,
The Indians bow the bloody knives,
Here did the trav 'lcrs wander through,
And close behind their murdcrers too,
They too, help form your steppngstones,
And let you stumble DER their bones.
Many race here lies at rest,
Only, at times when you molest,
Their dustlilSc form and crumbled bone,
BY thy small feet, they soon will own.
o. Maiden, here, with golden hair,
'Tis only human, thou must not care,
For when tiny lifcs short years have sped,
Thou too, will lie close by the dead,
And give to ali that was given thee,
A path to tread on, that | be.

GOOD HONEY PLANTS.
Excellent for Bees, for Feed
and for Seed.

You can greatly improve your honey
flow in your locality by putting out
honey plants, those that also are use
full or ornamental, besides the honey
they produce. Perhaps the best honey
bearing plants and trees are those that
are good for other purposes as well.
The most abused and misrepresented,
and the best honey-plant that grows,
is bokhara clover. What l know
about bokhara clover is from my own
experience, having thoroughly test
ed its usefulness not only for honey,
but for food and seed. Bokhara is
an immense seeder, and will produce
ten bushels Of seed per acre under or
dinary conditions. This seed has a
ready market at wholesale seed houses
at from six to ten cents per pound,
and usually is retailed to growers at
from Is to 20 cents per pound. That
bokhara is good feed for stock l
can testify, having used it myself.
This clover, like alfalfa, stock do not
naturally take to. as they do to some
grasses, especially such grasses as
grow in the middle and eastern states,
where timothy. blue grass and red
clover abound. Stock there will usu-
ally go around it just as they will
alfalfa, if alfalfa grew there as it
does here. This being true, and from
the fact that bokhara spreads and
grows spontaneously on road sides,
has given the impression to some peo-
pie that it is only a worthless weed,
and for the want of proper investiga-
tion and thorough testing It is thus
misrepresented.
If I were planting trees for both
honey and other uses. I would plant
linden or "basswood," as it usually is
called, and also catalpa. The linden
is very valuable for its white. fine
grained wood. and, as a shade tree,
scarcely has an equal. The cataipa
is noted for its everlasting posts, and
in this regard it is said to have no
equal. 1t also is a beautiful shade
tree and both the foliage and the BIOS
SONS are very ornamental. - A. H.
Duff, in Farmers Voice.

HANDY DESSERTS.

With Fruit Juices &AA %<eA1AAAA.

Enou1e. = Form Of Jelly Made
win Fruit Juices saA Gelatin.
Among simple, wholesome summer
desserts few things are more generally
liked than those which consist princi-
pally of a mixture Of fruit juices and
gelatin, of which few examples are
here given:
Annie Sauce.-Bake five or six large
apples and pulp them through a mash
er. Dissolve an ounce Of gelatin and
three or four ounces Of sugar In III OF
water over the fire, adding to this lit
tie lemon juice to acidulate it pleasant
Iy. then stir 1t to the puree Of apples
and when 1t is all cool and nearly set
ting whisk 1t till stiff with the whites
of two eggs previously beaten to stih
froth. Mold and set as before.
Banana Sponge.-Peel and pound to
smooth pulp six or more nice ripe ba-
nanas, add to them three or four
ounces of sugar. the Juice of half lem
on. an ounce of gelatin and rather more
than III pints Of cold water. Stir over
the fire till it boils and the sugar and
gelatin are all perfectly dissolved, then
lift it off the fire and leave it till nearly
set and cold, when you whisk into it
the stifly whipped whites Of two eggs
and mold as before.
Peach Sponge.-If made with fresh
fruit, you pulp sufficient ripe peaches
to produce a pint of pulp and mix this
with rather more than pint Of strong
sugar and water sirup in which you
have dissolved an ounce of gelatin.
When this is cold or nearly so. whisk
into It the stiffiy whisked whites Of
three or more eggs and mold as before.
Sponges can be made from almost ev-
cry kind of fruit either by utilizing the
juice or the fruit pulp. Moreover, If
preferred milk or single cream may be
used to dissolve the gelatin instead OF
water. Indeed some cooks use half the
quantity of liquid given to dissolve the
gelatin, making up the required
amount with stif1y whipped fresh
cream. In such cases, however, it Is
better to lessen the quantity of gelatin
considerably, say by full third. and
then not to attempt to mold the sponge.
but to serve it piled up on glass dish
or in long fluted wineglasses, most
attractive arrangement.

The Free Lunch Attracts
Municipal Attention in Chicago

omy on their part, and with the free
lunch goes the paid-for beer. Of course
he might pay for the beer and then not
drink it in order to get the lunch, but
the average young man, no matter how
he has been raised, is not long proof
against the smiles of derision on the
part of more worldly companions that
greet such actions in place of this
kind.
In all probability the saloon keepers
themselves would appreciate the
squelching CT the free lunch system.
1t is a system that has been built up
by competition to a point far in ad-
vance of what was desired, and is PROV
ing an expensive luxury. True. there
are but few places where a staff of
cooks are kept for the purpose of pre-
pairing this luncheon; it is usually pur-
chased from company that makes a
business of providing them, and they
are merely kept warm in the place
where they are served, but even this
is more expensive than the receipts will
always warrant. There are saloons in
Chicago where the expense of the free
lunch will run as high as $500 weekly,
and these places would be glad to stop
the system If they could.
By all means, DR.. Gehrmann, con-
tinue your investigation.

TALK ABOUT coWBELLs.
They Are Made To-day Exactly as
They Were a Hundred
Years Ago.

"One of the comparatively few
things that the hand of improvement
has not touched is the cowbeIl.
which is made now just as it was q
hundred or more years ago. and has
now just the same peculiar clanking
sound as ever" said a bell manufac-
turer to a Washington Star writer
recently. "Cowbells are made some
OF copper and some of composition
metal; but most of them are made of
iron and finished with a coating of
bronze. The cowbell is not cast; it is
cut from sheet of metal, which is
folded into shape and riveted. The,
metal cap at the top, through which
the strap is passed, is riveted into
the bell. Cowbells are made of ten
sizes, whose sounds range through an
octave. Sometimes musical enter
tainers who play upon bells of one
sort and another come to us and by
selection among bells of various sizes.
find eight bells that are accurate in
scale.
There are only four factories in
the United States in which cowbells
are made. and in each case the cow
bell is only an item of production
among other things. Cowbells are
sold all over the country, just the
same as ever. but much the greater
number is sold in the south, the south
west and the west, where farms are
larger, less likely to be under fence
and cattle are more apt to stray.
American cowbells are exported quite
largely to the various countries of
South America and also to Australia"

build air castles of the profits he will
realize on his investment, profits that
through the winter season are eaten up
in the purchase of fuel. But his dreams
are short-lived, for the tenants have a
way of figuring out things for them
selves, and when fire is no longer ne
cessity-when there are no more SHOWS
to be shoveled from the sidewalks
the beauties of life in a suburban cot
tage strike them forcib.y, and they
move.
And what a joy life is, to be sure,
through the hot summer months far
out on the Chicago prairies. The sub
urban landlord feels unusually gener-
Gus after having his house stand empty
all through the winter months, and Of
fers great inducements to good ten
ant-one who intends to stay. And they
all intend to stay, though the tenants
have learned from experience that it
is better to make lease for not over
six months, and the six months just
takes them along to the days when fire
is again necessary, and back they go to
the comforts of the apartment house
and the steam radiator, while the sub
urban landlord weeps and walls at the
unfaithfulness of humanity in general
and his late tenant in particular.

FOR A DOZEN FOWLS.
Handy Coop Designed Along ModeFn
Lines and Suitable for All Parts
of the Country.

When the farm poultry consists Of
only a hundred or SO fowls, it will
pay to keep breeding pen of some
dozen fowls of the best stock from
which to get eggs for Matching. A
fine lot of chickens can thus be sep
cured. Where this is done it will be
necessary to keep the breeding fowls
from the rest of the flock. Our coop
is 6x5 feet, 5A feet high in front, and
AZ behind.
In the front side Is door two feet
wide, and window. This window is
hinged at the top to provide for VEN
tilation in summer. A screen placed
over the window opening on the in
side will prevent the fowls from
breaking the glass and will keep out
night providers when the window is
raised. There is an opening a foot
wide extending across the back Of the
coop. This opening is closed by a one
foot board hinged at the top. This
opening, too, Is covered with screen
wire. Beneath the window or beside
the large door we have a small open
ing large enough to let fowl pass in
and out. This is closed with a slide

and stormy weather. as by leaving
the door open rain and snow would
blow in. A board hoor we find most
satisfactory al 1t is easier cleaned
and keeps out all animals.
We find that lean-to shed at one
end of the door of the coop facing
the south will furnish a warm, sunny
place for the fowls to scratch and ex-
ercise in on the coolest days of win
ter. In this shed we keep sand,
gravel and straw. In this straw we
throw grain in order to keep the
chickens active.
Z Our scratching shed is made of
poles and old straw or hay. In the
winter we Sset posts, and put up a
frame to hold straw packing and
make a wall of the straw around the
two sides and back of the coop. This
will make the coop warm. Over the
front we tack building paper, as .
window protection, instead of put
ting in straw. L. Irwin, In Ohio

iscoming through
the columns of the public press.
These three theaters are being
fitted up as a business venture of d
peculiar kind, and one that is abso-
lutely new. They are for the amuse-
lnent of the customers of the whole
sale merchants who are building
them.
Practically every wholesale mer-
chant in Chicago, and for that mat
ter every large city, has for years
had to employ men to entertain their
customers; to take them to the thea
ters. to the parks, for rides about
the city in carriages and automobiles,
dine them and wine them, all in an
effort to secure their business.
Some time ago one of the wholesal-
ers had a half dozen automobiles
built for the use of his customers, and
found them a profitable investment.
Now others are taking another step
in the same line, and providing their
own theaters.
All of them are of the vaudeville va
riety, and will be run only during the
times the city is well filled with buy
ers. The merchants figure that it
will be cheaper to employ their own
talent and entertain from 20 to 80 or
more customers at one time than to
send each of them to regular thea
ter.
Such a scheme is made possible by
the number of vaudeville artists in
the country who are seeking engage
ments at any price, and it is safe to
say that the country customer who
is entertained in this way will not see
the best of the stage novelties.
