think too much Of the science, Instead
of being simple and natural. A hen
naturally knows how to care for her
chicks. and cares for lnem. If wo-
man does not know how to care for
children Is she normal, fully devel-
Ioped woman? IL she has had no ex-
iperience she can soon learn if she sets
about 1t.
She will find her own life broadened
and bettered II she shares 1t with chil-
ldren "
Can't love any children but your
own? shame! Learn from the old hen
again. Does she not sometimes adopt
chickens? When she has not enough
OF her own she lie willing to adopt an
other hen's ..children.''
Heredity? Are you afraid OF Inherit
ed tendencies? Let us whisper: What
do you or what do your own children
inherit? You do not want to tell?I
Perhaps you can find q child who had
a good father and mother. Not all
parents who die are bad.
You will take one? oh, no. Please,
please do not do that unless you have
several OF your own. Take two or three
or four. They will be company for
each other and will not always need to
go to the neighbors for some one to
play with" You can care for that
many. Can old hen can care for more
than dozen-all OF one size.) Let the
children help you take care Of them
selves. One with no experience has not
the least idea OF how many steps a
child can save its mother.
God has so made the home that 1t is
not complete without the child.
Do you live in a house or home?

AN EXPENSIVE DUCK.
Huntington Hawkeye.l
The duck market in Iowa varies, and
with 1T the price; tho not always ac-
icording to the law of supply and de-
mand. B. r. Ping, a young farmer liv-
ing near Iatty, paid s1615 for one little
duck recently that weighed less than a
pound.
Pins was arrested by Constable
schaefer on an information sworn to
by Deputy Game Warden Frank John
son. The specific charge against him is
given as follows:
State of Iowa VS.. B. E. Ping. The de-
PENDANT, B. u. Ping, is accused of the
crime of killing ducks from artificial,
ambush, for that the said defendant on
or about the Cd day of April. 1900 at the
township Of Huron. in Des Moines
county, Iowa, did willfully and unlaw-
fully kill a wild duck from an artificial
ambush, contrary to the statute in such
case made and provided, and against
the peace and dignity of the state OF
Iowa. F. E. JOHNSON.
Ping very promptly admitted that he
had killed the duck ard was fined ST
and costs. He pulled out his pocket
book and cheerfully handed Squire
Riepe three So gold pieces and the ball
ance in change. amounting in all to
siS1o. or this amount the game war
den gets S.. the balance goes to pay the
costs, and the fine goes to the school
fund.
Mr.. Ping was willing enough to pay
for his fun. but he rather plainly told
Mr.. Johnson that he objected to being
singled out from among so many who
were Offenders. The offense occurred
on Bradley Lake. and the defendant
said there We're scores of hunters. club
members and others who were violat-
ing the game law.
Mr.. johnson replied that he had filed
against three other men
and they would be arrested as soon as
possible. He didn't intend to show any
favoritism and would arrest every one
he caught shooting from blind or out
OF season. Ping then inquired II he
ttJehnson' wasn't on the lake Sunday
and if they had not shot a a duck. He
said he could give him the names OF
numerous others whom Johnson must
have seen Sunday and among whom
was his (Ping's) cousin.
The warrants for the arrest Of three
other game law violators have been is
sued and there will be additional ar
rests.
