Knaxv She Was ICIY

The Duchess of Orleans, mother Of
the regent who governed France dur
Ing the monarchy Of Louis XIV, was
notorious for her ugliness. She wrote:
"From early youth knew how ugly
I was and hated to have people look
sharply at me. | never cared for dress,
as I knew that diamonds and orna-
ments would only attract attention to
me. Once Countess scissors asked me
why | never turned to look at mirror
in passing, as every other woman did.
I told her could not endure the sight
Of my own face.
GAS a girl [ must have been very
ugly. I had little, blinking eyes, a pug
nose and big mouth with thick lips.
My face was broad and fat and my
figure short and stumpy. Nobody would
have tolerated me except for my good
disposition.
K don't suppose that there was in
the whole world another pair of hands
as ugly as mine. The king often told
me so, and laughed, for l was resolv
ed always to laugh at my hideousness.
I must confess that l had to laugh very
often.
what surprised me most was that
any one could fall in love with me. I
was VIGOROUSLY the ugliest woman at
court, yet was married at 10.
II often asked my husband if the
sight of me were not repulsive and
what he had seen in me that induced
him to fall in love with me. / never
got a satisfactory answer, but L think
that L must have had some other at
fractions which outweighed my ugli-
ness"

He thought he was having a high old

then give $4,000 to an orphan asylum

how he ended. He was still prancing

the law seized him and he was hung
by the neck. He figured it all out be-
fore he went his way, and he came to
the conclusion that he hadn't been in

his goodness. He came to be known
far and wide as a man who always
shoveled the snow off his sidewalk
clear up to the line, and if he had a
lawsuit about a line fence he didn't
drag in the whole country. When he
went up to Jerusalem, he was honored
and respected of all men, and his daily
life was without a blot. No one has
tried to explain why Judas suddenly
made up his mind to change and give
things away. He was rewarded with
"A pieces of silver, but he had no note
coming due and was not hard up for
cash. But change he did, and he no
doubt expected to have high old times

Cow Comfort.

The man who at this season Of the
year provides some kind of shelter
from the sun for his cows is going to
receive a big interest on his invest
ment, says Hoard's Dairyman. A COW
to return a profit from the feed she
consumes must be comfortable, and
comfort is not found where the animal
is required to stand under q blazing
sun or hunting for few mouthfuls of
dried grass over a drought stricken 40
acre pasture. Butter is slippery ar
ticle, and it slips away easily and
quickly when its factory is required to
spend three-fourths of the time fight
Ing flies. A COW will appreciate shelter
on hot day as much as. if not more
than, a man. Cool water and corner
sheltered from the sun. together with
a breeze to keep the flies away, will go
as far toward filling the milk pail as
heat flies. poor water and dried up
pasture will produce the opposite.
Costly shelter is not necessary, but
some old boards and straw. together
with a few hours work. will go far in
producing cow comfort.

these may be excluded altogether by

So far as concerns the milkman, bac

is by cleanliness, carefully washing

second means is by regulation of tenn

1t is necessary, however, to empha-

Half an hour or an hour after milking

this half hour the bacteria have al

times happens that nights milk keeps

Milk from a healthy cow contains no

germs to the cubic inch, sometimes
more. These are obtained chiefly from

his clothing, the milk pail, the cow.
They are always floating in the air,
especially if hay is fed during milking.
They are likely to be on the hands Of
the mixer to some extent, and his
clothes are teeming with them. Milk
pals not completely clean contain
large number, but the greatest source
of milk bacteria is the COW. The germs
get into the teats through the milk
duets and between one milking and the
next multiply rapidly. The first milk
taken from the gland washes these
bacteria into the milk pail.
