where | was born. and Samuel Adams
was there many, many times. I'm as
much of a Hancock as Edith, though
she won't admit it. Don't you like
Boston better than San Francisco,
Mr.. BlakeP"
Really. | remember very little OF
Boston" replied Blake. when | was
a small boy we moved to Quincy. and
from there to q farm near bingham.
That part of my New England life
most vivid in my memory clusters
round the old farm in Rocky Woods"
did you live in Rocky Woods?"
The dark eyes opened wide and Jes"
sic looked wonderingly into Blake'S
face.
why. yes, lived there for several
years. Do you mean to tell me that
you ever heard of that desolate patch
OF rocks, pines, stone fences, buckle
marshes?"
Certainly l have. Uncle Tom
Mr.. Bshop-lived there for a genera
ton, and spends the summers there
now l have often been there. Isn't
it strange. Mr.. Blake, that both of us
are familiar with that out-of-the-way
country? Where was your fathers

ard farm. Do you know where Peter
Burt lived-Peter Burt, the old crazy
man who used to pray at night from
the top of the big roclk?"
yes" said Jessie softly, with a lit
tie catch at her breath as the blood
mounted to her cheeks.
James Blake watched her face in
-tently. Both were thinking of John
Burt but with what different emo
tions! Since the sun had set. a gulf
had opened between John Burt and
James Blake.
And Jessie Garden? Intuitively she
felt that james Blake knew John
Burt In a fash It occurred to her
that Blake's business with her father
was a subterfuge. Was lie the bear
reer OF tidings from John Burt? Per-
haps John was dead? If alive, why
did he not come himself?
And you knew John Burt! re-
member now that he often spoke OF
YOU. He always called you Jim and
rarely mentioned your last name. And
you ran away from home. Did you
ever meet John Burt in California.
Mr. Blake?'
James Blake was not deceived by
this question. With grim Joy he re-
nected that Johns injunction for Sc
crecy was still in force. lie must
either mislead Jessie Garden or prove
false to his friend. but for the first

time the deceit was his own and not
a sacrifice for another.
"Of course knew John Burt" said
Blake refiectively. Dear old John; I
owe him thirty-five dollars. When |
ran away from home he gave me
every dollar he had, and I've not seen
him since. Did you say he had gone
to California? Is that so? No, |
never saw him there. And you knew
him? Really, Miss Garden, | almost
feel as If we were old acquaintances.
All, here comes Mr.. and Mrs. Bishop!
I had no idea it was SO late"
Mr.. Thomas Bishop was introduced,
and after a brief conversation, in
which Jessie acquainted her uncle
with the fact that their guest was
formerly from Rocky Woods, Blake
excused himself. He accepted an in
vitation to call again.
Then we will continue our recol-
lections of Rocky Woods, Miss Car
den," he said on leaving.
Instructing his coachman to drive
to his apartments, James Blake closed
his eyes and attempted to calmly re-
view what had happened He found
it impossible. One emotion held mas
terry over him-he was in love, madly
and Gefiantly in love with Jessie Car
den. He thought of Arthur Morris
and hated him. He thought of John
Burt and pitied him. Neither should
stand in his way.
Could she be engaged to Arthur
Morris? Now that he had met Jessie
Garden he found himself unconscious
ly repeating John Burt's indignant
declaration: ut is a lie; ar Infamous
lie!" If an engagement did exist, it
should be as a barrier Of mist to his
ardent progress. But she did not,
she could not love Arthur Morris.
Did John Burt love her? Did she
love John Burt?
These were the singing. burning
questions which scared his brain, but
the clamor of his conscience was

Pics in Prison,

In the older parts of the country
it has been the practice to keep the
pigs shut up from birth to maturity.
A little pen in the barn was thought
to be sufficient and sometimes there
was even no yard for the pigs to run
out in. The said pen was sometimes
only six or eight feet square. Here
the pigs were kept close prisoners.
No wonder that troubles like thumps
were common with pigs so treated.
10 some extent this practice still
remains. There is no question that
swine should be given room for exer-
else, even il no pecuniary advantage
can be figured from it. None of our
farms are so small that there is not
an abundance of room for the yard
that should be connected with every
pig pen. The larger the yard the
better, and If it is large enough to
be divided into sections in which
green stuff may be grown alternately
it will be the more profitable.

CHAPTER XXI.
unrsascnina Passion.

liz all the vast world only two per-
sons knew that such a man as John
Burt lived-James Blake and Peter
Burt.
John Burt owned stock in thou
sands of miles of railroads. He was
an investor in other great enterprises
and activities. An army of men
worked under his direction, and the
stock market rose and fell at the pres
sure of his unseen hand. For years
he had rebelled at the fate which had
made him a recluse, which denied
him the fellowship and confidence of
his peers. He felt a keen JOY over
the knowledge that the day was APP
preaching when he could assume his
true place in the world of vast affairs.
But of earth's countless millions
there was one above all others TO
whom he wished TO tell his secret.
He impatiently awaited the time when
he could look into Jessie Gardens
face and read the verdict in her eyes.
Were years Of patient waiting and
working to be rewarded or unrequit
ed?

John wcoIcv's Ideas on "Ai,ino.v

1t is pretty generally known that
John Wesley, during his unparalleled
apostolate of half a century. travelled
100000 miles and preached 10000 SER
mons, but comparatively few are
aware Of the prodigious amount OF lit
crary work he managed to accomplish.
His most curious and eccentric book
was entitled Primitive Physic or. An
Easy and Natural Method of Curing
Most Diseases" II was published in
London by Barr G Co. in the year
1743.
The preface is characteristic of tho
author. when man came first out of
the hands of the Creator there was
no place for physic or the art of heal
ing But when man rebelled against
the Sovereign of heaven and earth the
incorruptible frame put on corruption.
and the immortal put on immortality.

A Few Sheep.
J. IN. <hd TN,
Iroquois County,

In looking over some reports OF
sheep on farms we are struck with
the fact that in some of our states
not one half of the good-sized farms
carry any sheep. In the old days it
was assumed that every farmer had
at least few sheep. We believe that
to-day it would be better for the
farms and better for the whole popu-
lation of the country If every farm
had a small flock of sheep 1t APP
pears to us that a small flock of sheep
could be kept in the summer time
at least at almost no cost and with
great benefit to the arabic portions
of the farms. The husbandman works
to get the weeds out of lis JnIaDle
fields, but the whole length Of the
pasture fence is mass of weeds on
the side of the pasture and from their
tops blow millions of weed seeds
every year. The sheep would keep
most Of these weeds down and thus
destroy the source from which the
fields get their annual supply Of weed
seeds. One reason why farmers do
not keep more sheep is that dogs are
destructive to the flocks; but as these
rayages occur generally in the night
the trouble is obviated by penning the
sheep at night. The matter of fences
is another cause that deters some,
but a fence that is hog proof and
horse proof is generally sheep proof
During the last few years there has
been a steady decline in the sheep
growing industry in every state ex-
cept one east of the Mississippi. This
condition Of affairs is profitable Meth.

Blake arrived at his Office at an un-
usually early hour on the morning
following his introduction to Jessie
Garden. He had spent a miserable
night. No sleep came to his blood
shot eyes, and for hours he restlessly
paced the floor.
Il love her; my God, how ! love
her, but / also love joint" he eX-
claimed again and again, as the night
hours crawled slowly away. What
shall I do; what can / do? cannot
give her up. BY God, I'll not give her
up for any man; not even for John
Burt. Would John surrender the
woman he loved for me? What am
to do? I must decide before l see
him. If l tell John she is in New
York he will see her inside of twenty
four hours. That will be the end of
my hopes. She shall love me! She
must love me! / cannot live without
her. Oh, why did | ever see her.
In this unequal contest between
loyalty and passion in weak and
self-indulgent nature, passion won the
battle, but at a frightful sacrifice.
His judgment warned him that he
was doomed to defeat, but with the
frenzied desperation of a gambler he
staked erything-honor, friendship,
loyalty, his business career-all on
the turn of a card, and dared to meet
John Burt with treachery in his heart
and lie on his lips.
Blake knew that John Burt was in
his private Office, but for the first
time in his life he hesitated to enter
it. Prosperity had erected no wall
of formality between these two.
From the day they fought their boy
ish battle, on the edge OF the fishing
pool, they had called each other
John" and Jim" In tacitly accept
ing John Burt's leadership, Blake rec
ognized in his companion those traits
which attract allegiance, and which
hold it by unseen but powerful bands.
By a display of tact which amounted
to genius, John Burt had aided James
blake without patroniZing him, and
had forgiven his repeated mistakes
without offending him.
Blake strolled slowly through the
connecting offices and entered the
large room reserved for customers.
Those who knew the famous oper-
ator bowed respectfully. Blake gazed
absent-mindedly at a bulletin board
containing the early London and Paris
quotations. He read them, but they
had no meaning. He was thoroughly,

Twenty millions in five years is his
record? And it hasn't enlarged his

Packing and Shipping Eggs in Den
mark.


The work of grading and testing is
done mostly by women, who become
very expert. The eggs are graded ac-
cording to weight. There are six rec
ognized classes. ranging from 61s to
8 Kilograms per 120 eggs Q.43 to 2
pounds per dozen eggs). The expert
graders work, behind a long table,
upon which they have six wooden egg
racks, or frames, each frame with ten
dozen holes in which the eggs are
placed. The graders can tell at a
glance to which grade an egg belongs,
and they distribute them very deftly.
When frame is filled with ten dozen
eggs (Which are taken directly from
tho boxes received from the circles)
the frames are taken by a man and
weighed. IL the 120 eggs weigh too
much or too little for the grade for
which they are intended, eggs sre
taken out and substituted with larger
or smaller ones, as the case may be.
The frame of 120 eggs is taken into a
small, tightly closed room and set on
top of a hopper-shaped box, which is
about two feet deep, the sides of
which are lined with looking-glaSs.
The bottom of this hopper-shaped box
is about eight by thirty inches. -Four
sixteen-candlepower electric lights
stand up from the bottom, equal dis
tsnces apart. The eggs, as above in
Dictated, are placed over these lights
and looking-glasses, thick ends ap.
The tester looks carefully at ard
through each egg, and if any DO un-
sound they are rejected.
The eggs are then carefully and
snugly packed, side by side, with
nothing between them, in four layers.
in pine boxes % by ~ inches, nine
riches deep. Between each two lay
ets of eggs is a substantial layer of
straight, clean rye straw; on thu top
layer of eggs another layer of straw.
The thin boards are securely nailed
on, the boxes are properly marked
with the company's trademark, the
number of eggs and the grade sndi.
Gated, and they are sent to the ship.
All eggs are sold by the pound. The
cooperative company pays all ex-
penses from the time the eggs leave
the circles until they arc placed on
board ship. The average expense is
about ona cent per dozen. The cost

To Get Winter Eqqs.

I have been in the poultry business
for a long time. and my experience
has convinced me that the first thing
to do TO secure winter eggs is TO have
warm place for the hens. The tenn
perature should not be lower than
about 40 degrees above zero. feed
all kinds of grain | can get, but not
too much corn, as in that case the
birds will get too fat. The houses and
yards should be kept very clean, and
the fowls should not be allowed 70
eat foul stuff. They should have
good deal of exercise, and this may be
induced by throwing grain into litter
The nests should be kept clean and
the nest litter changed quite often.
Green cut bone is the best thing to
stimulate egg production that ] have
ever used.
