Farllne writes in part as follows;
Nothing illustrates the popular mis-.

than the astounding deiCsion, enter

man. Newspaper cartoons, which now
have more influence than newspaper
editorials, are largely responsible for
these strange baliefs. but they have
been fostered by uninformed editors and
politicians misled by deceptive appear
ances and malice. It is interesting to
see how ignorance alone misleads writ
ars about President Mckinley who are
friendly TO him, as when they speak Of

they have only seen his manner in pub

as Abraham Lincoln Remembering the
fate of public men who have done
otherwise. Mckinley has kept his Wit

thus. naturally enough, has been az

Trained as he was, almost from his
youth up, in the house Of representa-
tives, intimately acquainted with all the
phases of congress, and deeply imbued
with its spirit while possessed of the
friendship Il most Of its leaders Of his
time. it was very natural that h. should
consider it entitled to its full constitu-
tional powers and duties, and to the
most respectful consideration on a plane
Of absolute equality with the presiden,
of the United States. Mr.. Garfield was
the only president of our time. except
Mr. Mckinley, who came to the White
House after such an experience at the
capitol and he had precisely the same
theory of relations between the presi-
dent and congress. According 10 this
theory congress ought not to dominate

as far is practicable for the
good Of the country.
President Mckinley had the point Of |
view Of congress before he took the
point OF view Of the president. He
knows that congress, collectively. is as
wise, as patriotic and as representative
of the people as he is and that. indl-
there may b men in both
houses who would BE- able to take his
place at short notice. without detrimsnt
to the country. He remembers. too,
how h9 looked at the president when he
was a member Of the house and how
what the president said and did affected
him. It is therefore comparatively easy
for him to practice the golden rule in
dealing with congress as in dealing
with Others"

BUYING PURE BREEDS.
Fowls That Are Perfect in Every Re-
spect Command Prices That Seem
EXtortiOnate.

If you desire birds that will enable
you to compete at fairs, do not ex-
pect to buy them at a small price.
If you wish to breed frst-class eEhi-
bition stock next season, do not be
afraid of the expense. 1t costs time,
money and skill to breed up fiocks
to a high average, and the prices
usually asked are always extortion-
ate. If you are not particular about
exhibiting, and desire some strong,
vigorous birds that have no faults eX-
cept a twist of the comb or some
slight defect, for crossing on common
stock, let the breeder know it when
you write and he will try to accom-
modate you. Remember, no breeder
generally has two birds at the same
price. They are sold according to
quality. Therefore, be particular to
describe your wants, and do not eX-
pect the breeder to know your de-
sires. A fair hatch from 10 eggs is
seven-or one over half-thOugh some
are satisfied with five. No breeder
can guarantee every egg to hatch.
He knows no more about them than
the buyer, but he should endeavor to
send eggs from vigorous stock. A
customer would be fortunate if he
got a pair of frst-class standard
birds from sitting of eggs. Some
breeders do not get such pair from
a dozen sittings. The customer is
responsible for the hen that sits on
the eggs, and her management while
on the nest. Some customers do not
know good birds when they see them,
and often complain ignorantly. The
breeder must depend on any state
ment sent him. without being able
to verify or deny it. Before COM
planning ask yourself at what price
you will sell the chicks should you
receive an order for them. and make
a comparison between their value
and their cost.-Farm and Fireside.

COUNTESS Won BULOw.
Most Talented Musicians in the
German Empire.

One of the most fascinating and tai
ented women in Germany is Countess
Bulow, wife of the new chancellor of
the empire. Not only does she possess
great beauty. but she is noted as one
of the most talented musicians in Ger
many. She is no longer youthful, for
she has a daughter of 30, Countess
Eugenia Doenhoff, and a son who is
captain of horse in the imperial army.
1t is not given out how many years
Countess Bulow has to her credit; that
is left to conjecture, but she still re-
tains the graces of youth. No wrin-
kles furrow her brow and her figure
is 1.-the and erect, while her manner
is as vivaciOus as that of a woman
of 80. She rides. drives, plays and
hunts with all the enthusiasm of a
young woman just arrived at maturity,
and yet % years ago she stood for
one of the figures in Makart's great
canvas; Charles VS. Entry in Ant
werp." 1t is admitted that she is on
the shady side of so. According to the
fashion of her own country. the second
lady in the empire retains her maiden
name of Princess di Camporeale-a
great title that she can well afford
to support out of the revenues of her
marquisate of Altaville, Sicily. She
became marchioness when scarcely
five years old, upon the death of heT
father. The income is nearly 100000

WELL-MANNERED PEOPLE.
They Are Welcome Wherever They
Go and Add Much to the Real
Enjoyment of Life.

Good manners are more important at
home than elsewhere. As they cannot
be put off and assumed, as garment,
we are able to form our opinion of a
persons home manners by his manners
in society. As a rule what are called
company manners" are as easily dis
tinguishable as the counterfeit coin
from the pure gold. \ beautiful be-
havior is better than a beautiful form;
1t gives a higher pleasure than statues
or pictures; it is the finest of the fine
arts. How well it is that no one class
has a monopoly of this finest of fine
arts" While favorable circumstances
no doubt render good manners more
common among persons moving in the
higher spheres of society, there should,
nevertheless. be no positive hindrance
to the poorest classes practicing good
manners toward each other. For what
are good manners? They are the art
of putting our associates at their ease.
Whoever makes the most people com
Portable is the best-mannered person in

ners as in conversation. WeIl-man-
nered people do not talk too much.
They are careful to bear in mind the
meaning of the first syllable of the
word conversation, con (with). that it
means talking with another; they alb
stain from lecturing, and they are as
ready to listen as to be heard. They are
neither impatient to interrupt others
nor uneasy when interrupted them
selves. Knowing tha5 their anecdotes
or sharp replies will keep, or need not
find utterance at all. they give full at
tention to their companion, and do not
by their looks show that they consider
him a bore. Another rule observed by
every goodmannered person. besides
that he should not be impatient to get
IN his word. is that few brilliant flash
es of silence should occur in converse
ton. Another rule is not to select ones
self to talk about. 1t must be borne in
mind that as rule we and our concerns
are of no more Importance to others
than they and their concerns are to us.
Why, then, should we go over the an
nails of our lives generally, and our dis
eases in particular, to comparative
strangers? Why should we review the
hardships we have suffered in money
matters, in love, or our domestic
troubles, or why should we boast of our
success? 1t is unnecessary to state
that gossip or scandal-bearing is incom-
patible with good manners. THE oc-
casions of silence" says Bishop Potter.
"are. obvious; mainly, when we have
nothing to say. or nothing but what is
better unsaid. If we must speak of our
fellow-beings let it be of good. and if we
have naught but bad to say of them,
better not speak at lis. S. Times.

CHUTE FOR LOADING HOGS.

frame of 2x4 inches, with posts of 4x4-
inch stuff. To add to the solidity of the
affair, the 2X4 and Ana should be bolted
together. The floor can be made of
plank or rough lumber of any kind.
1t is necessary to nail cleats upon the
floor to prevent the hogs from slip
ping. One end of the chute rests on
the ground, while the other is on
level with the wagon bed floor. This
chute should be made of as light ma
terial as stability will allow, for it
is often convenient to change its loca-
ton. The rest of the arrangement is
two sections of slat fencing, to be
used as wings. One end of each sec
ton is fastened to side of the chute
and unrolled. When set up the two
wings will make a large V, of which
the point is the chute. The hogs can
be easily driven inside the V; then
the two ends of the Stating can be
brought together. The hogs will thus
be confined in a small pen to be load

Fraud in a Show Ring.

A remarkable case has recently been
tried at Birmingham, England. A
farmer there showed young bull for
which he was awarded a first prize.
The bull was afterwards sold at very
high price. The second prize winner
protested the age of the bull, and on
investigation it was found that the
animal was nearly three months more
than the age given, and should have
gone in an older class. Fraud in re-
cording the age was pretty plainly
brought home to the exhibitor and the
presiding judge fined him 5000. The
English press regards this as a we'll
merited, though severe, punishment
and expects it will prove a warning to
INSCRIPTIONS competitors at stock
shows. The judge ordered the culprit
to be kept in prison till the fine is paid.

We are asked how to train <erret
to hunt rats. 1t needs no training
1t is natural for it to hunt rats. If
it is placed at the opening of a hole,
it will enter it, and when it has
driven the rat out or killed it it will
come out of the hole and can be picked
up. What is called trained ferret
will do nothing more or less. All
ferrets, however, are not alike. Some
will hunt better than others. Some
will bite, and can hardly be broken
of the habit. But practically a fer
ret is ferret, and is a fearless hunt

CONDUCTS BIG RANCH.

All by Herself.

Nadine Farmer, better known in
western Texas and Mexico as Miss
Million, is rapidly acquiring large
fortune. Only a few years ago this
remarkable young woman was teach
irs music in small village in central
Ohio. She was an orphan, with linn
tied advantages and opportunities.

Now she owns a big cattle ranch and
runs it herself.
Miss Farmer was adopted by a rich
ranch owner, who was killed by be-
ing thrown from a bronco. The ranch
was offered for sale, and she bought
it, including 700 head of cows, with
money given her by her benefactor
during the five years she was with
him.
In the course of the next four years
her herds increased until it was diff
cult for her to find pasturage in Tex
as, and she was forced to send agents
to old Mexico to rent and buy grazing
lands. In order to befriend her for
mer pupils, who were deep in distress,
she bought the famous Broad AK
brand and the ranch.
