Is il not strange that in every

least one farmer known az a corn

there is found the man "whn

his smoke house on his own farm.
This peculiar man is some times a
successful truck grower or fruit
raiser. He may assume one of
several forms, but we may safely
call him "Nr. Know How" The

him as somewhat of a coniurer, but
at bottom we find his success due

Black and White.

Every crow is said to think its own
nesting the whitest, but a white cat
that had four kittens, of which three
were white and the fourth was black,
gave the first place in her affections
to Sooty. Once they were all brought
into the drawing room to be Shown
off," Besides the humans the room
contained a great Newfoundland dog.
Hitherto cat and dog had been on
friendly terms, but now pussy showed
much anxiety lest the dog might harm
her black pet especially. At last she
seized it by the neck and bore 1t be-
meath the lowest piece of furniture.
where the dog could not possibly crawl,
but she merely mewed to the others to
follow her as best they could. The
black kitten owed all this care to its
color, more happy in this respect than
the black sheep which is said to be In
every fock.-Exchange.

A Model Surveyor.

The Kingman Leader Courier tells of
an early day county surveyor in King
man county, Kan, who neither pos
sessed any instruments nor could have
used them II he had. His method of
measuring land was to tie his ankles
together with a cord that was just
long enough to allow him to step one
fifth of a rod each time, and thus hob
bled he would strike out, counting his
steps until he had made a sufficient
number to cover the desired distance.
The cord or string used by him in
fastening his legs together. says the
Leader-Courier, was made of raw
hide, so that when he was travelling
through the grass Of a morning when
the dew was on 1t would become wet
and stretch nearly a foot. and SO his
steps were much longer of a morning
than they were Of an evening after the
sun had dried the whang leather and
shortened 1t. Consequently the man
having his land surveyed In the morn
ing would have much more in his
quarter section than his neighbor who
had his work done In the afternoon.
These old surveys and corners then es-
tablished cause annoyance even to this
day

Thrifty sQuanderers.

When Napoleon entered Genoa In
1905, the rich patricians of the city
exerted themselves to gain the favor
of the conqueror by all sorts Of fat
te-,ng attentions. The most elaborate
of these was banquet patterned after
the famous one offered by Antony to
Cleopatra.
The tables were set In an artificial
garden. floating on pontoons, which
were lowed out to sea during the prog
ress of the feast. At the conclusion Of
the banquet-again I'm imitation Of An
tony and Cleopatra-all the costly gold
and silver plate was flung into the sea.
This little tribute of honor to the en-
peror was not so expensive as 1t SEEM
ed, for the floating garden was sur
rounded with nets, and the plate was
subsequently recovered.

Character at a Glance.

An insignificant nose means an In
significant man. An open mouth is a
sure sign of an empty head (keep yours
closed. A projecting upper lip shows
malignity and avarice. Pointed noses
generally belong to meddlesome peo-
pie. Large eyes In a small face betok-

A retreating chin is always bad; 1t
shows lack Of resolution. A projecting
under lip indicates ostentation, self
conceit and folly. Fine hair generally
betokens native good taste and intelli-
gence.
A dimple In the chin is pretty, but
indicates weak mental organization.
High cheek bones always indicate
great force of character In some direc-
ton. Fullness of the temples Is sup
posed to show powers Of mathematical
calculation.
A small mouth, with nose and nostril
also small. shows indecision and cow
ardice. Half shut eyes show natural
shrewdness. together with lack of sim

found in the heads of persons Of pru-
dence and ability.-London Answers.

Bleeding by Bowshot.

That all diseases can be cured by
bleeding is still firmly believed by sew
eral savage tribes, and especially by
the Papuan negroes.
When one of their physicians be-
comes convinced that 1t is necessary
to bleed a patient, he goes several feet
in front of him and then, drawing his
bow. he fits a sharp pointed arrow to
it and after a careful aim fires the ar
row into the vein which he desires to
open. The arrow. it is said, invariably
goes straight to the mark, and the
thorn or splinter of glass with which
1t is tipped does the work as success
fully as lancet.
Moreover, the patients never show
the slightest fear, since they are con-
v1nced that from the moment the ar
rows pierce their veins they will begin
to recover

BYRON WAS BARRED.
peaa of Westminster Refused to Ac-
cept Statue of Poet


Many years ago some admirers of
Lord Byron raised a subscription for a
monument to the poet, to be placed in
Westminster abbey. Chantrey was re-
quested to execute 1t, but on account
of the smallness of the sum subscribed
he declined, and Thorwaldsen was
then applied to and cheerfully under
took the work.
In about 1893 the finished statue ar
rived at the custom house In London,
but, to the establishment of the sub
scribers. the dean of Westminster. DIR.
Ireland, declined to give permission to
have 1t set up i'm the abbey, and, owing
to this difficulty, which proved insur-
mountable, for DIR. Ireland's successor
was OF the same opinion, it remained
for upward of twelve years in the Gus
tom house, when QS40 1t was re-
moved to the library of Trinity col
lege, Cambridge.
The poet is represented in the statue
of the size of life, seated on a ruin.
with his left foot resting on the frag-
ment of a column. In his right hand
he holds style up to his mouth; in his
left book, inscribed "Childe Harold"
He is dressed In q frock coat and cloak.
Beside him on the left is a skull, above
which is the Athenian owl. The likeness

time he told her that he would stop

send 1t home, and with this she was to
clean the windows.
After he had gone his rounds he re-
turned to his office. CHANGING at the
windows, he found them thickly
streaked with grease. He called Bridg-
ct, and the following colloquy took
place:

"And didn't tell you to use the new
chamoisT

"well. did you use it?"
Sure, did sor."
"Let me see the chamois," said the
doctor, and Bridget promptly brought
it. Then for the first time he learned
that his wife had left the house half
hour before him and had sent home

ALIASES OF THE PEANUT.
There Are Many Names For the
Toothsome Palate Ticker.

Considering its universal popularity
and excellent standing in agricultural
circles, IL is remarkable how many
aliases there are under which the pea
nut travels. Whenever it is introduced
TO d new community the tUOthsOme
Offering of the sod adopts a new name
and comes forth with an additional
sobriquet which makes it almost un-
recognizable to its old acquaintance.
II the "edible fruit"-as the dictiona-
ries call it-had ever done anything to
be ashamed of. the public might under
stand, but as things are the eccentrici-
ties of peanut nomenclature are abso-
lutely astonishing.
Here in Virginia we designate our
little friend principally as the peanut.
but quite often we likewise allude to
him as a ground pea" and occasionally
as a "goober." Over in England they
call the same fruit ground nut, while
it is variously known elsewhere as
"earth nut" Manila nut" 'jurnut"
and "pindar." The scientific patro-
nymic, as we understand 1t, is Arachis
pypog@a, and the family belongs to the
genus of leguminous plants.
But, be its name what 1t may, a pea
nut is a peanut the world over, so far
as its virtues go, and few are the hui
man palates which decline to receive
an introduction to it.-Richmond Dis

pointed to a collection Of candlesticks,

were big and little. ornamental and
plain, practical and impractical ones.
Some had broad trays. and others had
none at all, and some had devices for
lifting the candle, while others were
made with deep necks. There still re-
main people who cling to the traditions
of their ancestors and will have none
of the modern lighting inventions for

prefer a light In their bedrooms until

European Arithmetic.

At the custom house we were obliged
to make a deposit of francs 40 cen
times on each wheel before entering
Switzerland. Since that day faith in
the advantages of higher education has
wavered. There were nine bicycles,
and the government official found the
entire amount of our indebtedness by
putting down $40 nine times and then
adding up. Why should one vex ones
self with the multiplication table when
limited time reaches the same result?
