Now it is charged that Hon. John
j. Ingalls, of Kansas plagiarized his
short poem, Opportunity" Just what
anyone would want to plagiarize it for
is hard to understand as almost any
poetaster might do as well. All that
ever gave it vogue was the fact that it
was a poem written by man who
was not a poet. Mrs. Ingalls, declares
that it is original and that her hus-
band worked on it for years. He GER
tainly wasted his time. No man
could write better prose. He should
have remembered the adage about the
shoemaker sticking to his last.
The ancient right of sanctuary, but
adapted to new conditions, has been
vindicated by Magistrate Crane of the
Jefferson Market Court, New York.
A man was found asleep in st. JOS

the sexton hauled him into court. The
proceedings were as follows:
"This man was asleep in the church
last night"

the magistrate.
But" the sexton added, d" he was
snoring very loudly"
"That is God given privilege, sir,

Do you know how much money it
requires to make change for quarter?
Probably you will say twenty-five
CENTS" Immediately. You are way
out. To change a quarter in the var
ious ways it can be done requires a
capital OF 70 cents. If a fellow want
ed plenty of coin for his quarter he'd
tax you for twenty-five pennies. On
the other hand, the man who wanted
the least loose change for his quarter
would come at you for two dimes and
nickel. The chap who wanted a
diversity OF coin in his change would
get into you for two five-cent pieces,
one dime and five pennies, which
would allow him to jingle copper,
silver and nickel in his jeans. Others
might ask you to produce four nickels
and five pennies, three nickels and
ten pennies, two nickels and fifteen
pennies. Ii you escaped these de.
mands you might be requested to come
up with five nickels, three nickels and
one dime, one nickel, one dime and
ten pennies, one dime and fifteen pen.

There are just twelve ways of "treat.

HUNGRY HEARTS

Some hearts go hungry through the
world,
And never find the love they seek;
Some lips with pride and scorn are
curled
To hide the pain they may not speak ;
The eyes may flash, the mouth may
smile,
The voice in giddy mirth may thrill,
Yet underneath the hardened mask,
The famished heart is hungering still.
Some know their doom; they walk their
ways
With level steps and steadfast eyes,
Nor strive with fate, nor weep, nor
pray;
While there are others not so wise,
Are mocked by phantoms evermore,
And, lured by seemings of delight,
Go blindly on, but in their hands
They hold but bitter dust and blight.
We see them gaze with wislful eyes,
We mark the signs on fading cheek;
We hear the smothered sob OF signs,
And note the griefs they do not speak.
For them, no might redresses wrong,
No eye with pity is impearled;
" uCu anu
o hearts that hunger through the
world!
For such life s arid desert holds
No fountain shade, no date grove fair,
No gush of waters, clear and cold
But sandy reaches, wide and bare.
The foot may fail, the soul may faint,
And weight to earth the weary frame,
Yet still they make no weak complaint,
They speak no word of griefor blame.
o eager eyes that gaze afar-
o arms that clasp but empty air,
Not all unmarked your sorrows pass
Not all unpitied your despair!
Smile, patient lips SO proudly dumb
When life's frail tent at last is furled,
Yonr glorious recompense shall come
o! hearts That hunger through the
worldl Selected.

To Prevent Indigestion.

When poultry is fed for large egg
production upon every manner and
kind of food that is likely to increase
the egg yield it is absolutely necessary
that they should have sharp grit, some
broken charcoal and a plentiful supply
of water and green food, says the
Feather. If all of these are provided
there is not so much likelihood Of the
poultry suffering from Indigestion. A
full supply Of grit enables them to
handle more quickly al that goes into
the gizzard and reduce it to pulp
and pass it along into the intestines
for final assimilation and distribution.

A Famous Rosarian Gone.

The Very Rev $. Reynolds Hale,

foi. his book on roses and his enthHsi-
assn for gardening. died recently il his
eighty-ffth year. Dean Hale was one
of the foremost promoters and from
the time OF lis formation until his
death the president Of the National
Rose Society Of England. He has been
called probably the most noted anna
tour rose grower i'll the world and was
a regular exhibitor at rose shows and Il
writer for the horticultural journals.
Besides the classic on the rose Dean
Hale published Il number of Other
works on gardening and some volumes
of "reminiscences. The charming per-
sonality and genial wit of Dean Hale
pervaded his writings and endeared
him to many readers.

ed feeds altogether and rely ON those

The high price of concentrated feeds

English breeders claim their focks
lay 220 eggs each per year. Eighty to
1870 eggs per duck, however, was the
average of our flock the past season.
This is a most phenomenal record and
is not equaled by that Of any other
fowl that wears feathers.
Indian runners mature very rapidly,
reaching four pounds in about twelve
weeks The standard weight for ma
ture brakes is four and one-half
pounds; for mature ducks, four pounds.
Their small size when first introduced
into this country was much against
them. but this, by careful selection,
has been speedily removed. We have
many runners weighing six to seven
pounds.

The damp, wet season is more in
furious to the fowls than is the cold,
dry weather of winter. Dampness is
the source of one-half the diseases 1t
is not so much the amount Of water
they come n actual contact with as
the constant humidity of the air
and dampness of their surroundings.
Damp weather means an accumulation
of mud and filth in the yards and coops
which is always in state of decom-
position and source of annoyance.
To avoid this difficulty the coops should
be cleaned daily and the floors sprin-
kled with fine. dry land plaster or dry
earth The cards should be drained
and every precaution used to turn the
water away.

New Blood For Turkey F1ocxs.

One can scarcely realize the great
necessity of building up the vitality of
our turkey fiocks throughout the
country, says The Feather. Inbreed-
ing and carelessness and neglect has
so reduced the vitality Of the turkeys
in many localities as to make it almost
impossible to raise the poults. The
only way to overcome and fight this
is to be absolutely certain that you
have sent away from home far enough
to secure your new blood SO as TO be
absolutely certain of its strength and
value.

The eggs of these cutworms are laid

In the spring they awaken with very
