Improvement of Corn.

"Uncle Henry" WalIace,is devoting a
good deal of space in his paper, Wal
laces' Farmer to the improvement of
Iowa Corn. He calls attention to the
fact that while the Iowa Farmer has
been improving his live stock for TWEEN.
ty years and more he has given very
little attention to the great Iowa crop,
corn. Among the many articles which
have appeared in Wallace's Farmer on
this subject has been series by Prof.
Shamel, of Illinois, the corn expert,
and these are illustrated by number
of photographs showing different va
rietles OF corn, perfect and imperfect
ears, the most profitable to raise, etc.
The average Iowa farmer thinks he
knows as much about corn as anybody
does but We miss our guess if he can
not learn a lot from these articles in
Wallaces' Farmer.
In this connection we wish to say
that Wsllaces' Farmer is one of the
best agricultural papers that comes to
this office. 1t is handsomely printed on
paper of fine quality, filled with at.
lractive illustrations, and In addition
to Its regular features, its editorials by
Uncle Henry" its departments of
Dairying, horticulture, the Hog and
Poultry, Its Home Department, for the
women; contains full reports of the
leading fairs, live stock shows, and
sales, agricultural meetings, etc. 1t is
published weekly at Des Moines, Iowa
at 81 90 year, all subscriptions pay
able in advance and the paper stops
when the time is out. We can send
Wallaces' Farmer and the Democrat
both one year for only 225 and you get
one of our nice premiums. Apply at
the Democrat office.

A distinguished aember of the Unit

he still has something to learn In the
direction of agriculture.
He bought farm as summer home
for his family and finds especial de-
light in walking about the place, COM

and in many ways showing his inter

One evening during the summer he
was strolling over the farm. The hired

it, and, calling his man, he said:

to the villa after the incident just de-
scribed, they learned that Miss Lori
mer's uncle and aunt had arrived in
Paris earlier than they had been ex-
pected and that the young lady had
gone to take up her abode with them
In one Of the big hotels. 1t was in the
nature of n flight, and not even Darrell
himself could be blind to the fact. He
suffered the pangs Of remorse-that
particularly distressing remorse which
does not permit a man to mention his
fault to his own soul, since the confess
sion must be tainted with presumption.
Indeed. gentleman cannot even plead
complete innocence, for to say to his
conscience that he has won heart
without attempt is to flatter his own
vanity and slur the lady US too willing.
The party OF four for the ball was
broken up. The Gordons attended,
upon their guests insistence, leaving
the house about 10 O'clock, and Darrell
rode with them in their carriage lit
tie way, alighting near club. which,
upon second thought. he did not visit.
Instead he spent some hours roaming
aimlessly about the city, a prey to
great discomfort and full of the best
resolutions concerning the avoidance Of
all communications with women that
should so beyond the yea, yea and nay,
nay approved in holy writ.
1t may have been about midnight
when he wandered into a dark street
which attracted him because 1t seemed
to be deserted, though the boulevard
from which he had just come was all
alive. A carriage passed him at smart
pace, and he looked after 1t with a
vague notion Of something unusual.
The Impression gradually became more
definite, and he perceived that. his at
tention had been attracted by the pc
culiar noise made by the equipage or,
to be more accurate, by the lack Of
noise. The wheels rolled silently, and
the beat Of the horses hoofs was muf-
fled. Stepping down from the sidewalk
In front Of one Of the few lamps upon
the way, Darrell discovered that the
street was paved with wooden blocks,
and then he remembered having read
that an English company was endeav-
oring to introduce new pavement and
had furnished sample gratuitossly.
AS he stood staring, with true Amer

of the nature Of an invention, span

heavy whip. The lash cleared OAR
rell's head as he lodged forward under
1t and came down with great force up
ON his back. The sharp pain and. above
all, the unexpected and unnatural act
itself inspired Darrell with purely
instructive wrath. He leaped to one
side, avoiding second blow, and then
sprang up in such way as to get a
momentary footing on the forward
wheel, whence he passed on upward
as IL upon wings. alighting against the
coachman, who, rather from surprise
perhaps than from the force Of the
shock, lost his balance and fell to the
street.
1t was lucky for Darrell that the fell
low did not carry the reins with him,
for the horses nearly jumped out Of
their harness. frightened by the whiri-
ing whip and perhaps by the volley of
curses with which the coachman had
REINFORCED the blows that he had aim
ed at Darrell's head. The team bolted
frantically. and 1t was a matter of life
or death for the man on the box. His
own safety, coupled with a fleeting
thought Of the woman whose cry he
had heard, kept Darrell busy with the
horses, and he had no time to look back
to see whether the coachman had bro
ken his neck. There was a clear infer
ence that he had not, however, for It
could hardly have been any one else
who at the moment when the fright
ened animals sprang forward, dis
charged pistol that had the resonance
Of small cannon and shook the win
dows of the narrow street.
Fortunately, the way was absolutely
clear. Moreover, Darrell was strong
and well trained master OF horses, and
he had not a particularly mettlesome
team to deal with. He had secured
something near to control of the brutes,
though he could not yet stop them.

making brief visits to the French
capital At the time of the Incl

two, Darrell and Miss Edith Lorrimer.
The young woman was cousin to Mrs.
Gordon and, like that lady herself, a
student of art. Mrs. Gordon, indeed,
was something more than a student,
having won the beginnings of name
among painters. AS to Miss Lorrimer

from within the vehicle there came a
