DEMON DANDY

o. URING his visit to the Hunting
iii dons he had fallen hopelessly in
love with the beautiful and I'M
& perious sister of his host. 1t was the
night before the sale that the subject
OF the ellington horse sale was
preached by Huntingdon.
II see they are going to put up that
brute Demon Dandy" he began inno-
Gently.
..Why brute?" queried Diana.
Bellairs, for her benefit, recounted
the history Of Demon Dandy's ex-
ploits
When he had finished the narrowing
recital with thrilling account of how
Demon had beseiged stableman In
the loft for space Of twelve hours.
and how he had kicked two loose boxes
into matchwood in the same space of
time, Diana Huntingdon lifted her glo-
rious dark eyes to his.
IT think should like to buy that
horse" she said.
any dear DIANA" expostulated her
brother.
..Don,t think of IT." said Mr.. Bellairs.
Diana had will of her own. This
slight but ill-tlmed opposition called it
into life.
"I'm sure should like to buy that
horse" she reiterated, with a rising
color.
More opposition followed from the
men.
Her brother1gr angry at the idea,
while Bellairs, who would himself
mount and ride anything between n
buck-jumper and zebra. grew alarm
ed and almost angry with her, whom
he worshiped in private as almost
divinity.
~ am going to buy that horse" said
Diana Huntingdon at last, with an an.
cry fash In her eyes.
Then out Of his love and fear for her
Bellairs forgot his manners. which, MS
general rule, were perfect. Worse
still, he also forgot diplomacy.
II don't think you will succeed he
said, coolly.
Then a hot flush came up from his
boots, till he blushed In agony to the
crown Of his head.
..Indeedf" replied the girl. with a
note Of scornful, Interrogation in her
voice that caused his heart to sink
within him.
IT am thinking of buying him my
SELF" said Bellairs. desperately.
.Indeed7" replied Diana, with an al
most imperceptible lift Of her eye
brows.
ITO shoot exclaimed Bellairs.
An angry flush crept across her face
as she swept from the room, gazing
angrily before her.
you're quite right, jack" said
Huntingdon, alphabetically, as his
friend returned disconsolately to the
table. But I'm afraid you've upset
d; she's bit short-tempered, you
know. Do you really mean to buy the
brute7"
II do" replied Bellairs, "and to ride
him, too"
And he did.
Diana did not appear at the sale the
next day, neither did she put in an ap-
pearance at the dinner table. Where.
fore. In the evening, Mr.. Bellairs or
dered the dogcart babe his friend
farewell, and returned to his home
with q sorrowful heart.
o
A year elapsed and found him still
sorrowful.
All his male friends declared him to
have become mysogynist, while all
his acquaintances of the softer sex,
who might have been his friends but
for this painful popularity, declared
that hs was heartless brute.

1t is refreshing to find United States
Senators refusing to participate in an
unnecessary junket at the expense OF
the government. 1t is an example that
might be profitably followed by all the
members Of both houses. The partic-
ular investigation which has been re.
jected by majority of the Senators
destgnated-that to inquire into the
financial and political conditions In
Hawaii-was wholly without warrant
of necessity. To have conducted 1t
would have had no other result than
the expenditure of $4,000 of the Fed
eral funds in furnishing number of
Senators with trip which most OF
them do not want. The financial and
political conditions In Hawaii can be
learned with equal accuracy and much
less expense In the ordinary course of
governmental administration. = Pitts

Democracy Needs a Leader.

The instincts of the masses of the
party have brought them together on
certain main issues now before the
people. 1t is possible that before the
next great contest national leader
will arise who will be free from fac
tional entanglements, with nothing to
explain and no revenge to wreak. Such
a leader will have the loyal support of
Democrats who have been wasting
their strength in party feuds. 1t is de.
sirable that there should be harmony.
but 1t Is altogether likely to be remote
until a leader arises who can compel 1t.

The head of Madam Liberty

I'm every bit as good as goldr

That tiny, thin, gold dollar

For all his airs and graces

I'm FURNISHED just as bright as he,
And half again as big!''
But when the Cent and Nickel
Went out upon their way,
Alas, the world still held them cheap,
Whatever they might say.

But what you really are."

Instead of the usual cover crops In
orchards some farmers prefer to have
the land cultivated in summer, thus
killing weeds and permitting moisture
and air to enter the soil, the stirring of
the soil protecting the roots of trees,
Late in the summer, about August or
after danger of drought is over, clover
is seeded and left until spring, the scar
let or crimson clover being preferred.
If the land is left in sod as a cover
crop 1t is claimed that the demands of
the grass crop for moisture and plant
food in summer Injuries the trees.

Rust i'll Wheat.

Rust in wheat may be prevented by
destroying the spores in the seed. One
plan is to soak the seed in solution
made by dissolving pound of sulphatc
of copper in ten gallons of hot water,
allowing the seed to remain in the solu-
ton twenty-four hours, then drying the
seed with fine land plaster and sowing
or drilling as soon as dry. Wheat that
showed Indications of rust last year
should be avoided, however, and new
seed procured. 1t should also be plant
ed on different field from that OH
which wheat was grown last year.

The Trusts Are in Com mand.

The trusts command the situation
and there is no chance for effective re-
lief from the Republican President or
Republican Congress. All the trusts
have to do is to threaten to shut off the
supplies for political purposes in the
next Presidential campaign, a matter
which the President has very much at
heart. No doubt there will be Wig
orous beating of tam-tams and "stren-
uous" words from the President, but
there 1t VIII end. 1t is a game of de-
ception and humbug. The President

In the summer of 1857 Mr.. Lincoln

crease the size of his crops even after
harvesting. He had given, on this par.

Nations Honor Sacrificed.

Inc late session Of Congress, acting
for the Republican party, made every
sacrifice demanded by the protected
interests"
Cuba and the national honor were
offered up to them.
And for the sake of the protected in
terests the people Of the United States
are to have no protection from the
shoddy swindlers. Touch one protect
ed interest and all the protected inter.
ests make Its cause their own,
SO the Grosvenor bill was smothered
In committee. Out of Difference to the
policy of protection the rogues who sell
shredded rags for wool are to be per.
mltted to continue their cheating trade.
All the Grosveror bill demanded was
that cloth made of shoddy should be
labeled and sold for what tits and not
as something else. But the counter
feiters declared that they would be
ruined IL compelled to be honest, and
they threw the usual threat to the
other protected interests: IF we are
meddled with we shall turn upon you
and see to 1t that you are also stripped
Of protection" The threat was sue
cessful. 1t always is. The Republican
party Is in the grip of private interests
Millions are invested in the shoddy
business. 1t has corrupted nearly the
whole cloth-making trade. Behind the
tariff fence it is found more profitable
to manufacture counterfeit than real
cloth. Hence the proposal to Interfere
with shoddy alarmed one of the most
highly protected interests in the coun-
try. Though there was no attempt to
touch the thrift on materials from
which shoddy is manufactured, the
fight In shoddy's behalf was waged by
tariff-sheltered cloth-makers.
No open argument could be offered
against the Grosvenor bill. 1t was OBJ
viously simple measure to put stop
to fraud which has for its victims
the masses who cannot afford to buy
clothing made of imported cloth. Com
mon honesty has been given up to the
protected interests" along with the
national honor. Such are the inevita-
BILE fruits Of Protection, us fostered
and developed by the Republican party.

Waste Products ON the Farm.


The work done ON the farm Just be.
fore the busy spring planting begins
is very important, If proper considera-
tion is given the matter of saving that
which is usually lost by inattention to
details. The great waste of unstable
farm products amounts to millions of
dollars annually, for farmers do not
seem to understand that it is not al.
ways necessary to send produce away
from the farms In order to find mar
kets. The farm is the best market, in
fact, that farmer can have, for If
he keeps live stock he will be able to
sell his raw products by converting
them into the forms of meat, milk,
butter and wool. The difficulty is that
the waste products on the farms are
not properly utilized. One product,
that OF corn fodder, has been wasted
for years, though now 1t is being
put to use with the aid of the shred.

Belated Rooseveltian Thunder.

Now that Congress, the only power
that can deal with the trusts, has ad-
journed, President Roosevelt is awfully
mad at the big combines and he is 60
ing to do terrible things. The simple
method of dealing with the trusts was
pointed out not alone by Democratic
statesmen and newspapers, but by
many Of the ablest Republicans and
Republican newspapers in the country,
but President Roosevelt was SO busy
not listening that he failed to hear of
it, and so Congress escaped before the
proposed remedy could be forced be-
fore 1t for consideration. The remedy
proposed was to put all articles manu-
featured or produced by the trusts on
the free list If Congress had taken
that step it would have smashed the
trusts ut once; and there's the secret of
Congress not taking that step and
there's the secret of Teddy's failure to
thunder in this direction while Con.
gress was in session.-Johnstown (Pa.)
