Composite samples having patches
Of driea cream on the inside Of the
Eight Thousand Years Ago.

1t may be safely said, to quote Prof
essor Petrie. the famous psychologist,
that there has never been a greater
extension of the knowledge Of mans
past history in any decade than the
discoveries Of the last five years in
Egypt have unfolded. In a recent in
formal address at general meeting
of the Egypt exploration fund, Prof
essor Petrie gave brief account Of
our present knowledge of prehistoric
history" and of the latest work of
Abydos, where the tombs of the first
dynasty kings, who ruled Egypt some
where between 5000 and 5000 B. c.,
were found. He said: step by step
mysterious ages which no man ever
hoped to know again are being grad.
tally laid bare before us. The Homer
ic age stands revealed as being but
the decadence of greater glory
which dazzled us at Tiryns. at My.
cenae and still more at Knossos. And
how great mystery has always clung
to the beginnings Of old Egypt. And
now from the royal tombs of Abydos
we have seen and handled this sum-
mer the drinking bowls and furniture
of the kings of the first dynasty; even
the property of Mones himself. the
first king of united Egypt. Never be.
fore, indeed, has SO remote a period
been brought completely before us as
it has been by the work this year
at Abydos."

Changing Seed.

There is yet much to be learned
about the matter of increasing crops
By obtaining seed from other sections
than that where it is to be planted.
At the Iowa Experiment station they
obtained potatoes from Canada and
planted them By the side of seed
grown upon their own soil, from the
seventh crop Of that variety grown
there. They obtained 754 bushels per
acre from the Canada seed, and 109
bushels from the home grown seed.
Yet the results are not always that
way even with potatoes. 1t may be
said that generally home grown pota-
toes do not produce as much as seed
grown farther north, but it is not an
invariablc rule. and some successful
growers would not trust their crop to
seed which they had not grown and
saved themselves. and say that when
they have tried it home grown seed
has always produced the best crop.
The results of one experiment do not
prove a case. and we need more, with
thorough knowledge of how the
crop was grown, and seed selected In
each case. We need to know if fore
ing crop to grow and mature in
shorter time, either by a richer soil or
cooler climate. or both. will make the
seed more pYolific.-The Cultivator.

AnalytIcaf Portraiture,

The idea of combining many pic
lures in one composite photograph. so
rs to get type face, was brought
out nearly twenty years ago by Fran
els Galton, f. r. s., who has now de-
vlsed the opposite plan of analytical
portraiture in which it is sought to
record what is individual in the cX-
preston by combining different photo
graphs of the same face. Two po--
traits, for example, may show man
with normal expression and when lie
is smiling. On placing Il carefully
made positive Of one picture on neg
ative Of the other, details common to
both are obliterated. and the result is
that only the smile is left. When the
process is fully worked out, it is ex-
pected to give Psychologists and ar
lists an important means of analyzing
expression. From the portrait men,
toned, it has been learned already
that the smile is an act involving the
whole face. and not. as we have been
led to believe, simply a few muscles
around the mouth.

To Preach In Dutch cr in English

The members of the Central Re-
formed Church of Sioux Centre, Iowa,
have been engaged in a bitter legal
and social controversy rs to whether
their pastor should preach his sermons
in Dutch or in English. One faction
In the church applied recently for an
Injunction to restrain him from
pieaching in Dutch. The application
was denied, the Judge being Of opin-
ion that he lacked Jurisdiction. The
same faction then tried to gain the
dssired result by bringing n suit based
OF the theory that the pastor was re-
qfired by his contract to preach all
his sermons in English. The result of
tlis latter action is not known.

A Rgmmage Sale Incident.

II one has anything around the
house one wants to get rid Of, the
proper thing to do is to send it to a
rummage sale. There is perfect
craze just now for this form of enter.
tainment or charity, whichever it may
be, for all rummage sales are not alike.
This true story proceeds from a recent
sale held for a church fund.

Thought He Grasped the Idea.

In the fifth grade of a grammar
school not many miles from the state
house, the following story was read
by the teacher, and the class told to
write it from memory: "a farmer
planted a field Of corn and placed net
over it, as a protection from the birds.
Next morning he found a number Of
crares and a stock caught in the net.
The stork begged the farmer to re-
lease him, saying: am bird of ex-
cellent character. The farmer laughed
and said: You were caught in the COM
pany of these robbers, and with them
you must die.
Great stress was laid upon the word
character" the teacher explaining
that a boy, girl or bird found in bad
company showed great lack of charac-
ter. The following is copy of one
of the papers actually produced and
handed in by one OF the pupils, a boy
of II:
"a farmer went out in the farm one
day and he saw character and between
them was stork.
"He caught the stork and the char
acter. The stork begged the farmer to
set him free. But the farmer said you
were in there company and you must
die with them.
"The stork said he was not like
character. I am bird of freedom."-

The Bloc of Our Stock.

There is common saying that we
live by our blood and on it, and if the
blood is impure our systems starve! If
too rich we break out in disease and
suffer, but if just right at all times
we enjoy perfect health. This is so
true that physicians try to get at the
root of all diseases by purifying and
feeding the blood. If this is kept in
good condition and in healthy circu-
lation most diseases will be thrown
off and the system thereby will be
saved many sufferings.
A good deal if not all this practical
wisdom is applicable to the live stock
which we raise on our farms-the
COWS, pigs. sheep and poultry. The
blood is the all essential constituent
that makes good or bad animals. Let
that get out of order and then the
door is thrown open for all sorts Of
physical disorders. There is hardly
a disease that cannot be traced back
directly or indirectly to the blood.
Even the colds which the animals suf-
fer with would never have been con-
tracted had the blood been all right.
If the blood had been pure, rich and
in good circulation the animals would
have been able to throw the cold off,
or never to have taken it at all.
Consequently, we need to pay lit
tie attention in the winter time to
feeding for blood. and for seeing that
it is all right. Richness of blood
sometimes means impurity, and that
is not to be desired any more than
impoverished blood. Animals that are
shut uD in close winter quarters and
fed heavily on rich foods will inva-
riably have thick. sluggish blood
which may cause fevers and other
troubles. Swine cholera owes its ori-
gin to feverish.. thick and sluggish
blood When turned out in the clover
lot, they keep their blood cooled off.
and they rarely suffer from cholera.
We cannot afford to feed our stock
with too highly concentrated food in

winter unless we can give then daily
exercise sufficient to counteract the
effect Of this and feed tn RI also with
roots, vegetables and cher green
things. If we do, trouble will follow
sooner or later. and then the mischief
is done. 1t is much easier to upset
the system of an animal than to cor
rect it and bring it back to state Of
good health. The danger confront.
ing us now at this season is that of
heavy feeding with not sufficient va
riety either of food or exercise.
Neither can be neglected, and good
stock of roots is an excellent thing
to begin the winter with for daily
feeding.-William Conway, in Ameri.

pota and rrel,lses for House Plants.


We often see a blooming house
plant with beauty marred if not ruined
by the old tin can in which it grew,
or the dirty rag or twine string which
ties it fast to splinter or piece Of
stick which serves as trellis. Many
plant enthusiasts declare that they
have better results with the tin cans
than with the regular clay pots. This
may be true. and the cans can be
transformed into ornamental vessels,
combining cheapness with beauty.
Jardineres are too much of a luxury
for the average housewife to own
more than pair BY getting a supply
of crepe paper the cans can all be
transformed into dainty jardineres.
Cut the paper in strips with enough
to extend from the top of the can, and
around it. Then tie some bright COL
ored cord about the can, one piece an
inch from the top. BY running the
bottom uf the paper between the
thumb and finger and stretching it,
it will flare out. BY pulling out the
paper midway between the cords,
stretching it, and creasing it, the full
ness in the middle will be made. The
top is finished like the bottom. This
is not expensive and is certainly an
Improvement over the old rusty cans.
Where a plant is Of such nature that
it requires support of some kind,
get someone to make ladder of
smooth wood and paint it white,
brown or green. Fasten the plant to
it with some colored twine. in har-
mony with the color of the plant, pot
or frame. This is much better than
picking up broken branch and tying
up the plant with carpet rag. For
me, the prettiest flower loses its
charm if treated in this way.-Maud
Steinway, in Agricultural Epitomist.

A dull, throbbing pain, accompanied
by sense of tenderness and heat low
down in the side, with an occasional
shooting pain, indicates inflammation.
On examination it will be found that

inflammation of the ovary. If the roof

Kale as Food for Stock.

The thousand-headed kale is a va
riety that is highly esteemed in Eng
land as food for stock. 1t forces
lambs as rapidly as does rape. and it
is claimed that it never causes gases
in the stomach of an animal. The
seeds are planted early, or the plants
may be started in a hotbed for an
early supply, being transplanted as
soon as the season opens. 1t is termed
thousand-headcd kale because the
stalk supports a large number of small
heads. In this country the Essex rape
is preferred, and it has been tested in
all sections. especially as food for
sheep.
