WRITTEN ON NERVES.

In your brain there is a little bunch
of nerves that automatically takes note
of the names of people, places and things.
It is the center of memory, and it works

loss of memory, but that is all. If any
other part Of the brain is touched, death
is instantaneous.
An army surgeon recently related a
case that came under his own notice. A
mar in the Canadian mounted police was
shot with a Mauser bullet, which pene-
trated his skull and buried itself in the

Not that it's votes in doubt,

aud therein lies the secret of success.
There is wealth and prosperity for the
man who utilities all the waste. The
way to use straw is as feed. BY the
usual method OF stacking, it's value as
feed is very soon destroyed, however.
IL is the common practice to put the
boys on the straw pile when threshing.
Such thing as stacking the straw to
keep IL is rarely thought of. The only
idea iS TO get il away from the machine
so that the threshing may progress as
fast as possible. Well preserved,
bright straw fed TO cattle as rough
feed would prove of great value.
1t would prove of great value, also,
In the construction OF sheds. A shed
made by piling straw around and over
q framework of posts and poles is
much warmer than any shed that is
made OF lumber. A lean-to made of
straw, facing the south, where the
chickens can run and scratch on the
warm days Of winter, will more than
pay for the trouble OF making IL In
the number of eggs laid. AS bed
ding for cattle and horses, IL can have
no superior. IL readily absorbs the
liquid manure, which is the most valu-
able part, and is usually lost. IL is
thus converted into n most valuable
fertilizer IL hauled directly from the
barns to the fields. Nothing Is chen
lost. l.. Irwin, in Agricultural Epit-

did this strange accident happen to the
ticketsY The boy replied: why, papa
came home with them last night, and showed
them TO mamma, and he seemed TO be in
such a good humor somehow that mamma
thought il would be good time then TO tell
him how she owed over 800 for provisions.
She told him Of il, but he got so mad that
he said that every night now he woudn I
come home till after ~ o'clock, and he told
me for Heavens rake, when got married,
20 look out for a renslble woman. All the
time mamma laughed, and he was getting
madden, and so he said she wouldn't 60 TO
the theater with him, after that, and he tore
the tickets up, aud rushed out somewhere
alone. He amt back yet, either, but mann.
ma don't care. picked up the pieces off the
carpet and pasted them together, and il
