A FEW QUESTIONS?
AT HAND

Why didyou throw that lamp away?
Was it because you couldn't find a
burner?
Was it because you couldn't find a
wickY
Was it because you couldn't find
chimney?
Was it because the collar came off?
If it was for any of these causes, don't
throw another lamp away, but bring
it to up and we will fix it for you. Why
we will even fix your Center Draught
lamp, SO you can burn either gas or
electricity in it.

PLAN A MODEL DAIRY.
Exhibit Which the Bufa'o Exposition Is
to Have.

Exhibit Which the Buffalo Exposition Is
to Have.
Aside and distinct from the cattle
EXHIBIT at the Pan-American EXPOSE
ton, it has been decided to conduct a
model dairy throughout the entire six
months of the exposition. The dairy is
to be comprised of four or five repre-
sentatives OF each of the breeds of
milk cows laying any claim to merit
along dairy lines. Plans are being
made to have eight or nine breeds
represented in this model dairy. Near
ly all OF the live stock associations
nave given assurance of their fullest
cooperation in this matter, and have
generously offered to place at the dis
posal of the exposition the animals
which shall form this dairy. The sta
bic in which the cattle will be kept
will be one hat is equipped with the
up%-to-date appliances, particularly
with regard to hygienic and sanitary
conditions. 1t is not the plan to force
these COWS unduly to see how much
can be produced during this time, but
to see what they will do under abso-
Iutely uniform conditions, as nearly
normal as it may be possible to make
them on the exposition grounds. The
work will be conducted by men of
much experience in feeding and handl-
ing dairy animals, under rules which
will be formulated for the govern
ment of the dairy. Only such changes
shall be made during the six months
as shall be especially calculated to
prove the superiority of some particu-
lar breed, and when these changes are
made with a view to establishing some
characteristic or some breed all other
animals in the dairy will be placed
under exactly the same conditions and
careful record kept as to their per-
Torrance under these conditions. Ac-
curate data will. be kept as to the
amount of food consumed, its cost, it's
nutritive value, and also the milk pro-
duct, as to the amount and quality.
Never in this country has such a long
test of SO many animals of different
breeds been conducted, and it would
seem that much valuable data would
be gained from an experiment of this
kind. Details of the management Of
the dairy are in charge of F. A. Con-
verse, superintendent of live stock ex-
hibits of the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Bulletin.

Poisonous Weeds ON Ranges.

The cattlemen of the Northwest have
been complaining for many years
about the growth of poisonous weeds
upon the ranges, and last summer the
secretary of agriculture sent out a
couple of botanists to make an inves-
tigation. They found six plants of a
poisonous nature growing wild in diff
ferent parts of the territory, all fatal
to cattle. Antidotes were discovered
for three Of them. but the other three
thus far have no cure.

No stranger monument ever existed
that that which was erected at the Ho-
tel de Vile by the inhabitants of Lune-
burg, in Hanover, in honor of a pig.
This, which took the form of a kind
of mausoleum, contained a large glass
case in which was Theoretically in
closed a fine ham cut from the ami
NAL, whose memory was to be handed
down to posterity. Above was a tomb
stone slab of black marble, on which,
engraved in letters of gold, was the
following inscription in Latin: Pass
ers-by contemplate here the mortal re-
mains of the pig which acquired for it
self imperishable glory by the discov-
cry of the salt springs of Luneburg."

The disconnected worries of a mo-
rose person may very likely shorten
his days and the general justice of
natures arrangement provides that
his early departure should entail no
long regrets. On the other hand, the
man who can laugh keeps his health.
To the perfectly healthy laughter
comes often. Too commonly, though,
as childhood is left behind, the habit
fails, and a half smile is the best that
visits the thought-lined mouth of a
modern man or woman People be-
come more and more burdened with
the accumulations of knowledge and
with the weighing responsibilities of
life, but they should still spare time to
laugh.

The acquisition of new territory has
stimulated American interest in travel,
both at home and abroad. Just now
the ten-thousand mile trip of the pres
idential party is having an effect in
the same direction, as will the several
congressional parties which are MAX
ing preparations to go to the Philip
pines. The steady current of informa-
ton coming from all these outlying
islands is quickening the enthusiasm
of American travellers and making us
to an extent familiar with the world"
To render the familiarity an influence
for good everywhere should be our
main concern.

The son of the German emperor are
being brought up in a strict school.
While the crown prince is being initi-
lted into all the solemn rites and
practices of student life at Bonn his
three younger brothers, Ethel Fritz,
August Wilhelm, and Oscar, are hard
at work at Pleon, where they are sub
jected to a daily routine stricter even
than that to which they are accus-
toned at home. Every day they are
up at $3.50, have their cold tubs, then
their breakfast, and forthwith begin
work. The eldest of the brothers Wis
it's the first class of the cadet school,
the second attends the lower fifth, and
the third the upper third, They appear
to have made plenty of friends there
and take an active part in all the
games. The most popular game at
present moment is tennis, while the
second place is apparently by riding
and cycling.

Every year at Tunis a solemn re-
ligious service is held in memory of
the early Christian martyrs, Viva,
Perpetua and Felicia. The ceremony
was conducted this year a few weeks
ago by Mgr. Combes, archbishop of
Carthage. One of the most picturesque
incidents in the celebration was the
procession to the subterranean cham
bers attached to the ancient arena of
Carthage, the very place where, in the
third century, the two martyrs were
delivered to the wild beasts.

LET Us BE PATIENT.

Let as be patient, you and L;
Let us, like watchful guardsmen, make
Our hearts a haven for the sake
OF those that drift, they know not why.
Let us be patient. Let us keep
Our watch-fres faithful as Gods stars,
Whatever storm or shadow mars
The breadth of life's uncertain deep,
Let US be patient. Let men trace
No frown, no insincerity,
In skies of ours, that all may see
Gods presence in his child's calm face.

The Production of Raw sink.

China still easily leads the world in
the production of raw silk, Europe
ranking next with about half the pro-
duction of China, and Japan making
a close third. In 1899 the exports from
China were 16,986,443 pounds, and
from Japan 7,808,69 pounds. The en-
tire production of Europe was only 81
829,075 pounds, divided as follows:
Italy, 6,814, 070 pounds; France, 1884,
576 pounds; Austria-Hungary 6O8,4
pounds, and Spain, III, 959 pounds.

He Dimes Out-of- Doors and Attends
Open-Air Theaters.
The Athenians dine late the year
round, and, whenever the weather will
permit, in the open air. AS the heated
season advances, the dinner hour is
set later and later, until in August
$3.50 or 10 becomes the common thing.
Fancy going to the theater after that!
Yet the open air performances are lib
orally patronized, and they do not be-
gin, of course, until after dinner. The
legend curtain rises promptly at 9"
is a snare and a delusion, as many a
annoyance. The out-of-door dining
and the sky-roofed theaters are so
typically Greek that they serve as a
link between modern and classical
times. The old Greek, as everybody
knows, was an outdoor man, his house
serving as little more than a sleeping
place and store room. The Athenian
of today dimes in a garden, on his ter
race, or in a park. If he is too poor to
possess any of these accessories, he
sets his table upon the sidewalk. Many
of the cheap retaurants appropriate
the walks for dining rooms. One is
often compelled when taking an even
ing stroll, to dodge in and out among
dozens of tables covered with reason
ably clean linen and lighted by
of candles, whose flames are protected
from the wind by means of glass
globes.-Scribner's.

THAT plucky printer came burstin' in
the ROOM

recovery rustled a job with one of the
morning papers-there were two here
then-that he was boarding at the
Bacchus House, and, it seemed, de-
voting his leisure moments to Little
shock when I met her in the Office next
morning, looking pale and seedy. She
came straight to me and held out her
hand like a child. I'm in trouble she
said, with a moist sort of sound in her
voice, and I want to tell some one.
Will you listen?' I didn't need to an
swer, for she had already led the way
over by the window, and, looking
around to see that none were in ear
shot, she began talking like a cyclone,
fast and furious.
"'You see, he loves me, and I love
him-I just can't help it. Oh, it's all
right. Don't think that-and some
things goin' to happen tonight. He's
got a proposition to make to Nelson
and he's goin' to make it tonight in
our sittin'-room. Now, no telling what
will happen, and I want you to help me

went in, and we sat down without a
word near the door leading into the
next room. The two men came in i'm
mediately and it was Nelson Bacchus
who spoke the first word.
"'Well?' says he.

only right to tell you that she loves

it better-if you'd think over a

through the partition, then the scuf-
fling of feet. Little Bacchus sprang to
my side and raj pushing me toward
the door. She was about to turn the
lock, when a voice from the other side
treasured Us.

voice. Old Bacchus was cursing softly
but artistically.
