EXCELLENT SHEEP RUN.
Suggestion for shed Tint VIII Af- ford Protection to n small
 Sized Flock.

Sheep are naturally rather timid. tender, inoffensive animals, and for the safety and thrift of small flock q covered yard is valuable. 1t is not necessary for it to be costly, but it should be we'll protected from the weather and have dry floor. If it can be conveniently built as an addition to the barn, and have door opening into it directly from the barn floor, so much the better; in which case it should be made high enough so that grain and the like can be stored in the loft above, as

suggested in the accompanying cut.
 A shed 20 feet square will afford room sufficient for a flock of 40 sheep: it will give 50 feet of feeding room or a foot and half of rack for each sheep, and that is perfect ly ample. Occasionally the upper part, if occupied with nothing else, can be utilized to gaod advantage as a lambing shed, in which the ewes about to bring lambs may be safely accommodated. If employed for this purpose gradually sloping passage with bars across every nine inches to give foothold, should be used.
 The front of the shed, as can be seen, is half open, thing most de- sirabIe for sheep, in that they rEea fresh air and are able to withstand much cold if only kept dry. The manure, too, may be left in such a shed the whole winter, and if suffi- cient litter is furnished, the sheep will trample it so hard that there will be no disagreeable odors from it.
 The shed, of course, will need feed racks all around, on three sides, and there may be short racks on each side of the doorway, which will add something to the rack room. It is desirable to have the open part. if possible, face to the south.-Fred o. Sibley, in Ohio Farmer.

CHINESE MOTHER AND CHILD

teresting indeed to see these little yellow people in their own homes.
 I fancy that this little Chinese boy and his mother are out for day, for they evidently have on their ''best things" and they look as if they had some pleasure in store for them. think that many of our American mothers might envy this Chinese mother her neat and comfortable style of dress, although l am sure that none of them would envy her tiny feet, the smallness of which must represent many years of suf- fering.
 Nothing in the history of the Chi nese people represents more physical suffering than their foolish and wicked custom of binding the feet of the little girls to make them small
 1t is pleasant to think that this smiling little Chinese boy, who will probably be reared in America, will have happier and perhaps better life in our country than he would be likely to know in the land of his fa- thers.-Detroit Free Press.

LAUGHTER AS STOMACH CURE,
dominaI Organs md Increases Blood Circulati0n.

Worry is but one of the many forms of fear, so that worry tends tC the production of indigestion. 1ndiges- tion tends to put the body of the sub- ject in a condition that favors worry There is thus established vicious cir cle which tends to perpetuate itself, each element augmenting the other. It is necessary to secure cheerful wholesome atmosphere for the dys- peptic He should eat his meals at table where there is good fellowship, and where funny stories are told. He should himself make a great effort to contribute his share of this at the table, even if it be necessary, as it was in one case. under my care, for him to solemnly and seriously collect funny paragraphs from the press, and at first interject them spasmodically during lulls in the conversation at the table. The very efforts and determination of the man to correct his own silent hab- it's at table to correct his feelings of Encouragement and worry, were in themselves a promise of success. The effort made was adequate to the ob- stacles to be overcome. He succeeded, and the spectacle of that man trying to be funny at table when he felt thor oughly discouraged and blue is one we shall never forget, says the London Family Doctor.
 Laughing is in itself also useful exercise from the standpoint of di- gestion. It stirs up all the abdominal organs, it increases the circulation of the blood, it increases peristalsis, it increases the secretion of gastric juices. Five minutes deliberate laugh ing after each meal would be an excel- lent prescription for some people.

USE MANY WORDS EACH DAY.
Many Thousands of Phrases in Twenty-Four Hours.

II have been trying to figure out how many words the average man utters in every "A hours,v said gentleman who has penchant for peculiar things, according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat but 1 have been unable to reach any satisfac- tory conclusion on account of the different rates of speed at which diff ferenS persons talk. Of course, l have no reference to the different kinds of words which may be found in the daily vocabulary of the aver age man, but l am talking about the total number of words uttered, counting repetitions and all, during every 24 hours. There is the quiet, melancholy gentleman, who will not speak on an average of 500 words day, and there are many who for one reason and another would not utter anything like this number. On the other hand there is the converse tional Gatling gun, not always woman either, who will roll off words at fearful rate of speed, and whose aggregate for one day would run up to dizzy heights. Then there is the normal talker, who will strike good, decent averaget the man who will neither bore you with his indif- ferent silence nor tire you with his meaningless verbosity.
 But suppose we figure that the average person will utter an average of 40 words every minute, or about 57, 500 words for every 24 hours. Of course, no person will talk this much, as the windiest of men and women would probably break down before they had talked as much as 57 col umns in the average daily newspa- per. The only question is as to how much time each person puts in talk ing during each day. Some men and women are situated so that they can- not talk during the day, except at meal time, on account of the charac- ter of work they have to do. There are others, such as travelling men, for instance, who depend upon talk for their living. I have figured that the high man, probably the travelling man, will talk five hours out of every 24, which would give him total of 12,o00 words every day. I have fig ured that most any sort of a man will talk as much as ten minutes out of every 24 hours, and this would give him a total of 600 words for the day.
 sThese are the two extremes. am satisfied that the normal man the man who strikes decent average between indifferent silence and dis gusting verbosity will talk probably one hour, all told, each day, which would allow him 2,400 words. And this, by the way, is considerable talk, for it will fill two columns in news paper and whole lot of wisdom can be crowded into two columns"

Letfuce Friftern.

Lettuce fritters while almost un- necessary, may still serve the purpose of variety at breakfast and luncheon. Select crisp, rather small leaves of young lettuce and tear apart pieces about an inch square, and stir into a batter made from one egg, a table spoonful of sweet cream, salt, and flour enough to make it moderately stiff. Drop by the spoonful in hot lard or fry in olive oil inst enough to keep the skillet from b"rning. Serve them on folded napkin, with slices of lemon Detroit Free PrsSs.

publican convention by Congressman
Stevens. plank that alleged that It fa-
vored reciprocity with Cuba.

The Minneapolis Journal has been troubled
with spasms ever since the republican, state
convention owing to the fortunate fact that
the convention didn't see fit to sit down on
the Minnesota delegation in congress. The
fact that the platform indorsed President
Roosevelt shows that the papers thus bent
on hndings fault. and kicking up dissension
IN the ranks are not sincere.-Hokah Chief.
Who is kicking up dissension? The
people who fimf1ammed the convention, or
those who object to that sort of treat
ment? And as for sincerity, where is
sincerity to be found? Th g Journ nal
did not favor sitting down on the del
egation, as It's columns will show, but it.
does object to permitting the delegation
to write the platform in Washington in
such way as it might seem at first to be
an Endorsement Of the president when it
was really intended to be an apology for
the delegation. The manly, square thing
to do was, to fndorse the delegation and
say nothing about the president, or to
indorse the. president on Cuban reci-
procity and say nothing aboutthe 'opposi-
tion of the delegation. Everybody knows
that both could not be Endorsed and an
attempt to do it has made the repub-
lican party of the state ridiculous before
the people and the press OF the country.
