A Long Island woman who is well ed
ucated along musical lines has turned
her training to good account in a finan-
cial way. She is well posted with regard
to opera music. having attended opera
performances since early childhood, and
has been we'll trained in singing. At the
beginning of the season she makes a list
of the operas scheduled for production
in New York and also rotes the famous
singers who are to take part in them.
Then she issues a circular announcing
that. she is prepared to form a class Of
women for the purpose of acquiring famil-
iarity with the plot and the music of the
respective operas. The instruction takes
the form of talk, illustrated with piano
and vocal excerpts from the opera under
discussion, rendered by the lecturer. Ope-
"a matinee or evening parties are made
up by the members Of the class, all of
whom are residents Of the suburban dis
trict and their enjoyment of the perform
ance is adequate for the time expended in
the study of the plot and music. AS for
the instructor, she derives both pleasure
and profit from her work. for music is
her special hobby and she is a born
teacher.

Madame de Terrier. She fell against me
and sank downward, so that l was oblig-
ed to hold her up in my arms. had never
seen a woman swoon. thought she was
dying. and shouted to them below to come
and help me.
The potter sat spra wiling on the ground,
and did not bestir himself to, do anything.
As soon as my hands and mind were free
I took him by the scruff Of the neck and
kicked him behind with a good will. My
rage at him for disregarding her state was
the savage rage of an Iroquois. The other
man laughed until the woods rang. Mad
anne de Terrier sat up in what seemed
70 me a miraculous manner. We bathed
her temples with brandy, and put her on
4 cushion of leaves raked up and dried
to make a seat by the fire. The other man,
who helped me carry her into the ravine.
stood with his hat off, as was her, due.
She thanked him and thanked me, half
shrouding her face with her hood, abash-
ed at finding herself lost among strangers
in the night. which was my fault. I told
him had been bad guide for a lady who
had missed her way, and he said we were
fortunate TO reach camp instead of
stumbling into some danger.
He was much older than I, at least four
teen years. 1 learned afterwards, but 1t
was like meeting Skenedonk again, or
some friend from whom had only been
parted.
The heartening warmth Of the fire made
steam go up from our clothes, and seeing
Madame de Terrier alive once more, and
the potter the other side Of his wheel
taking stock Of his hurt. I felt happy.
We could hear in the cabin behind us a
whining like that uttered by a fretful
babe.
Ny rage at the potter ending In good ma
ture / moved to make amends for INV
haste; but he backed off.
You startled us" said the other man,
standing up in the clouds like a ghost.
And your resemblance to one who has
been dead many years is very striking.

life But old birds are not easily caught
with chan. so did not send on any mon

no better or as TO ready money than be-

Otherwise. IL would have been a peniten-

term in jaiI--to their great chagrin.
IL is possible that these cherry tree
cOalitionists were not expecting or in
tending to become thieves when they
started out. but they must have under

And there was Count de Chaumont to

such a leave-tahing?
DR.. Chantry was as insensible to De
Chaumont as myself. Still he agreed to
write a note to his protector while
prepared my quill to write one to Mad
anne de Terrier. With the spirit of the
true parasite he laid all the blame on me.
and said he was constrained by duty to
follow and watch over me since it was
impossible to curb a nature like mine.
And he left a loophole open for future

old man to tear himself from his ARGUS

VHow They Secure Farm Help Out in
Kansas

Among the many speeches made in Ma
con. ca, during the farmers congress
Just adjourned, / found particular interest
in the methods used to secure farm labor
out in Kansas. Like Aesops fable, these
methods may be fun for the men, but they
will be death for the frogs, otherwise
the women on the farms. Said Mr.. Stahl'
TIE speaker: Mr.. Gerow, the state Ia
Dor agent OF Kansas. who has been unable
to furnish farm hands 10 all neighbor-
hoods that wanted them, has for two
years had no trouble to get all the help
needed by the farmers of Ellis county.
Mr.. Gerow saws the reason Is that while
harvest hands in other sections get only
three meals n day in Ellis county they
get iveCD Not only this. the Ellis
county farmers also give each hand five
drinks OF whisky a day-one before each
meal"
Five meals a day. Five hot. smoking
meals. between six and six, Five times
a day, cooking ones brains over hot
stove. and five table settingsl And FIVE
dish washings, and FIVE big drinks of whis-
ky. with the thermometer in the nineties!
Wheugh!
Bless the Lord. that / do not cook for
farm hands in Ellis county. state Of
Kansas.
I wish, they had told how they divided
the spells OF eating. and IL they consumed
n nan nOuE OF WnOle nONE Over AASA
meal out in Kansas; and II the fve
drinks OF whisky were taken from the
jug or in sweetened tumblers.
Kansas is a long step away from Geor-
gia and I am glad IL is not nearer, for
I am nearly out OF heart with our sort
OF labor that kills time" on US and eats
three big greasy meals every day. II
two more were added and five drinks of
whisky were flung in for easement, feel
pretty sure I'd run away from the farm
and leave no goodbye when 1 started.
The five meals" stagger ones imagi-
nation. unless the Kansas hired help sub
sists on cold bread and buttermilk, and
they want such condiments frequently.
With a hot breakfast and plenty of
nourishing food the average man without
he is alnlcted with a tape worm, might
contain his appetite until Il o'clock. Then
plenteous dinner of boiled meat and
vegetables with bread and pies would
stay. any common appetite until the sun
went down. and II a good plain supper
followed, the hired help would not suf-
fer from hunger. The FIVE meals and
five drinks OF whisky will keep me out Of
Kansas so long as I must farm for a
living.

Ants on Lawns.

S. y. French asks: what is the
best way to destroy black ants, when
they form colonies on the lawn and
In the door yard?"
One OF the most common ways OF
exterminating them Is TO destroy their
mounds as they build them, cutting
them on with a scythe at the ground
just before n rain. The passages will
then all with water. This has been
the practice followed by the writer
In regard TO such mounds I'm the fields.
and IL should work equally well on
lawns. A scientific writer gives the
following list OF methods: Oh Pour
carbolic acid water down their nests.
CD Boil one pound of cape aloes In a
gallon OF water and add six ounces OF
powdered camphor. Excayate the ant
hill and pour in a quart OF this. COW
erins as much space as possible. and
then fill the nest again. ., here the
nests cannot be found. dilute this
largely with water, and sprinkle over
leaves. etc, through tho nose OF n
watering can. CD Tobacco water
is efectual II poured on for n few
nights till they disappear. CD Pufing
Insect powder into their holes every
morning for a few days will usually
clear out ants. 60 Another excellent
exterminator is TO take four ounces OF
potash and one-half pound -four OF
birthstone. Set them In an iron or
earthen pan over the FIRE until dis.
solved and united; afterward beat to
powder. lnfuse some OF this In
water, and wherever sprInkled about
the house or grounds the ants will
die or leave. co Another plan Is to
punch a hole in the ant hill with a
wooden stick or iron rod: pour a
little bisulphate OF carbon into this
hole. and then ill II by pressing tho
earth around Il; the fumes will pene.
trate the hill and exterminate the
ants. AS this Is an explosive sub.
stance IL must be used with care. but
II kept away from the fire Is com.
paratively safe. II Is a volatile LIQUID
and its fumes are very destructive to
animal life.
