The editor sat in his easy chair,
lighting his pipe on his auburn
hair. A halo shown over his
face so fair, but his knees were
out and his feet were bare. And
he sang a song both sad and
sweet, while the flies died all
around his feet, for he had no
grub in his shop to eat, and the
ground was covered with sleet.
Now, what in the world was the
cuss to do? He had eaten the
paste and swallowed the glue; he
hadn't a chew, and while he
stared his whiskers grew. And
the band played on.-Western

Caught the Egg Thief.

a Long Island doctor who has been
missing eggs from his poultry yard
for some time is happy at last, for he
has discovered the thief For months
every effort and every device to detect
the culprit failed, but, finally, the doc
tor hit upon scheme that was worthy
of Sherlock Holmes.
He took a dozen or more eggs and
bored the tiniest of holes in the she'll
of each. Then through these holes he
introduced into the eggs a piece of
very fine wire. The holes were then
filed with white wax and the eggs
returned to the nest.
A few days afterward the doctor
was called in to see the child of a
woman in the village near him. After
attending to the child he talked about
one thing and another until the lady
told him of such Il strange thing that
had happened to her. A few days
before she had bought half dozen
eggs from the village grocer, and in
four of them she had found short
pieces of wire.
These were produced and shown to
the doctor. who took possession of
them and told the lady how they had
had come to be in the eggs. He then
interviewed the grocer. who finally
admitted that he had been buying eggs
for some time from a man employed
by the doctor. The man is now work
ing elsewhere and the doctor no longer
patronizes that particular grocer-New

Lisbon has recently been subjected

Of the bacillus was invoked. and the
municipal doctors were commissioned
to inOculate some rats with an infec-
tiOus disease. a suitable virus, harm
less to man, was found. a few rats
captured and inocuated, and then let
loose. The bacillus triumphed. The
rats sickened and died with wonderful
rapidty, and to-day Lisbon is cele-

FURNISHED wholesome support For Trad.
ers and Hunters Years Ago.


In the early days the extension of
the fur trade in territory unsur-
passed for richness i'm pelts was actu-
ally made practicable by the wild rice.
which furnished Il wholesome support
for the traders and hunters. Pike. the
explorer, i'm 1915, described the fort of
the Northwest company at Leech Lake
ms stored with large quantities of the
grain, 900 bushels Of which were put
away in loft over the trading room.
Employees of the company depended
on IL chiefly for food buying it from
the savageS at the average price of
about $3.50 Il buShel
At the present time white people in
the ncighborhood of all the reserva-
lions in Wisconsin and Minnesota are
very fond of wild rice, which is COM
monty offered for sale in the towns.
Charles G. Opel. produce dealer of
Duluth, states that he handles from
one to two tons of it every season.
Most Of the cruisers, explorers and
homesteaders take it into the woods
with them" he says, land they claim
that 1t is better than tame rice. be-
cause it does not take so long to pre-
pare" 1t is largely consumed in lum-
Der camps in the region where 1t
grows.
The wild rice that comes to market
in this way is all of it gathered by the
Indians. the work of harvesting and
preparing the grain performed almost
entirely by the women.
Wild rice is more nutritious than
any of our common cereals, such as
wheat, rye, corn, barley, oats and or
binary rice. 1t is richer in starch and
sugar than any of these. and contains
more of the stuff that makes muscle
and blood. The freshly gathered seeds
may be cooked by simply pouring
water over them, but the parched
grain requires half an hours cooking
and the fire-cured n full hour. 1t
swells like the Southern rice. a single
coffee cupful of the dry kernels fur
nishing an ample meal for two In
dams, or sufficient breakfast food for
eight or ten persons. 1t is especially
wholesome for breakfast, served with
sugar and cream.
If it could be cultivated with any
certainty, wild rice would long have
become a staple for the white popula-
ton. Unfortunately. however, no
method has been found whereby reg
ular and satisfactory crops can be in
sured.-Pearson's Magazine.
