The turquoise. the birthstones for De

This, turquoise WIS a familiar md, IA
vc1;te gem aneng the ancient Mexi-
cans and Indians of tile west.
The turquoise fades when its owner
is i'll, and dies when the wehrer is at
tucked by an incurable maladyAso they
say.
The Germans claim that by its vary
ing shades tlreeturquoise turns telltale
on the caprices apd moods of its
wearer.
Shakespeare ;laslle gives these words. to
Shylock: He would not have lost his
turquoise ring for q whole wilderness
of monkeys" j.
The turquoise derives its. name from
a word. meaning Turkish and is SO
called because the first turquoises were
found in Turkey,
II your birthday comes in DECEMBER
and, you wear turquoise, you need
never be: afraid Of falling of a high
place. One Of the powers of the azure
hued. gem is TO-: preserve its. wearer
from this catastrophe.
1t is also said that it has the power
Of protecting its wearer against con-
tagion. A turquoise would certainly
be an ornamental substitute for Yacci-
nation. Its efficiency would probably
depend upon the faith" of the wearer.

The large and increasing circulation
of The Iowa Homestead In this county
is q matter for c0ngratulation to the
publishers and to good farming, for, of
all the papers of its class in the coun-
try, 1t is easily the best and most help
full. Its Special Farmers Institute
editions, issued with the regular edition
the first week in each month, have been
for years the admiration of all practi-
cal farmers. Written wholly by farm
ets, they are full of actual experience,
and smell of the soil. We have been
fortunate enough this season to secure
terms for The Homestead and its Spec
ial Farmers Institute Editions, together
with The Poultry Farmer and The
Farmers Mutual Insurance Journal,
four of the most valuable farm publi-
cations in the country, that enable US to
offer the four in connection with our
own paper for $3.50 for the entire five,
one year. This is emphstically good
thing, and no farmer in this county
should fail to take advantage of this
offer. For large line of thoroughly
practical farm reading nothing has ever
been offered before that equals it. A.
county paper, y farm paper, poultry
paper, farm insurance paper and the
Special Farmers Isntitute, all for S1.9O

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Kid gloves will not mold If you pack
them away carefully in dry place.
The appearance of crate may be
improved by rubbing it over with a
piece of old velvet after it has been
polished in the usual way.
Metal teapots should have a lump of
sugar put inside them before they are
put away. otherwise they are apt to re-,
main damp and acquire a musty flavor.
Loops for hanging up garments are
continually breaking. a serviceable
loop is made by cutting strip of kid
from an old glove, rolling in it q piece
of coarse string and sewing the edges
of the kid neatly together.
Gilt frames may be revived by beat
ing up the whites Of eggs with an
ounce of soda and then, after. blowing
the dust from the r"ames with the bel
lows, rubbing them over with a soft
brush dipped in the, mixture.
Experts in cut glass advocate. the fol-
lowing as the best means Of cleaning:
Wash the glass thoroughly with warm
soapsuds and cover with sawdust. As
soon as the sawdust is dry brush the
article very carefully with soft brush,
reaching all the creyices. 1t will come
out as clear and sparkling as bubble
fresh from the pipe.
Use pancake litter to place cookies
on the baking tin and to remove them.
To clarity fat after frying throw in n
few slices of raw potato and simmer
all for few minutes.
Grease spots that have become hard
and burned in on ranges may be re-
moved by rubbing with few drops OF
Kerosene on a cloth.
Sometimes the fishy smell will cling
to knives and forks after oily fish like
salmon or mackerel has been served.
Cut u lemon, rub them with 1t, and the
disagreeable odor will vanish.
Sometimes large roasting pan, be-
Ing infrequently used, gets rusty. To
prevent wash it well after. using, dry
1t in the oven, then while warm rub
It over with creased cloth and hang
1t away.
Old newspapers save work in the
kitchen. When you have any 'messy"
task on hand, like dressing o. chicken,
pickling over fruit. etc., lay apaper on
the table, gather the litter up with it
and burn all together. This saves
securing the table.

The Rhodes Scholarships,

While thera is a great ado over the
fact that in his will Cecil Rhodes pro-
vided almost one hundred scholarships
for Americans, the motive of the act
should have more attention than the act
itself. The shallow commentators of
England seem to believe that this is the
first free taste of education that the
Americans have been allowed and that
they will call Rhodes great for the be-
nevolence. If it had been in his mind to
promote education for the sake of edu.
cation he would have been great indeed,
for one hundred free scholarships are no
small thing, although there are thou.
sands of them In the United States, and
the one hundred at Oxford are but
scattering addition to the list. Cecil
Rhodes hoped through this to draw the
Americans closer to the imperial form
of government, to cause them to ac-
knowledge the first place belonged to
E0gland, and to educate them to have
less respect for their own institutions
and more for the institutions repudiated
by the reyolutionists. In short, his aim
was wholly selfish and q part of the one
grand dream that sought to have Africa
colored red on the map of the world.
His will is moreover being used at this
time by the British for the purpose of
currying favor with the Americans, a
favor that Rhodes and others like him
lost through assault on two republics
whose people sought to plant and
maintain liberty in the interior of the
dark continent.
But such an act will have little effect
in America. 1t is not said how the
scholarships are to be disposed, but
when the British papers express the be-
lief that Oxford will through this means
secure the cream of the collegiates of
America they are lily Informed. The
best and most sturdy of the Americans,
the class who rule, who have weight
and influence, adhere most strictly to all
things American and make themselves
part Of the world about them, not
seeking to implant dead and buried
ideals Of government In the minds OF
their fellows. There will be no imperi.
alism in which the Americans will have
part. There will be no union of the
English colonies of which Washington
will not be the capital city and of which
the constitution will not be the organic
law. Americans could not turn back i,
they would. The law of the world. {
statute higher than their own law, for
bids the action. Our country may ex.
tend, star after star may be added t,
the flag, but the constellation will neye
be dimmed by the luster of q centrs
crown. Federation is possible when al
men have equal rights. 1t is impossibl,
where there are different classes. Th
British empire can form no lasting fed
GRAFTON and the logic of the times com
pels the rulers to federate or fall. Iti
for them and not for the Americans i
seek new conditions Cedar Rapid

POULTRY POINTERS.

A safe rule in feeding is to give
enough to satisfy and no more.
Droppings should not be, allowed to
accumulate In the poultry house longer
than week.
Bone dust supplies an abundance OF
bonemaking material and counteracts
any tendency to diarrhea.
When possible, give the'poultry house
a southern exposure and furnish that
side with an abundance of light.
While wheat is one Of the best grains
to feed to fowls, 1t should not'be fed to
excess or II may cause diarrhca. Feed
1t with other grains.
Loss Of feathers is generally caused
by want of green food or want Of n
dust bath. Supply both. and, as local
application. use mercurial ointment.
Breed the best flesh formers for mar
ket; then feed them up to as great n
weight as possible. Well fattened, we'll
dressed poultry bring the best prices.

Senator courtright withdraws.

Senator Courtright of Waterloo an
nounced to his friends at Des Moines
Tuesday his withdrawal from the con-
test for Speaker Henderson's seat in
congress.
This fulfills earlier than expected the
prediction made to representatives of
this paper on the occasion of their re-
cent visit TO Blackhawk county to
investigate the report that the sena.
tor could and would command the sup
port OF his county against Col. Hender-
son. Friends of the speaker did not hes
itate to declare their belief that Black
hawk county would send a delegation
to the congressional convention united
in his support. Senator Courtright's
candidacy was announced with great
blare of trumpets In the press of Water
loo and was heralded abroad industri-
ously, but when the press and the party
leaders of the Third district generally
had been heard from it became appar-
ent that neither he nor any other man
In the district could carry single coun-
ty against its present distinguished rep.
resentatiye at Washington. Senator
