In. Nordstrom, who has been gen.
eral manager of the government rail-
ways OF Sweden for seven years, has
been appointed governor of Orebro Ian.
Mr. Sahlin, general manager of the
telegraph system of Sweden for two
years. will succeed Nordstrom as gen.
eral manager of the railways
Sweden had 1925 (English) miles of
railway at the close of the year 1908.
Almost exactly one-third of the mile
age belonged to the government, the
rest TO private companies. The freight
carried was %, 1885,, $50 tons, for which
the receipts were SIS, 1872, s66 50. AL
though the government operates only
one-thlrd of the whole railway net,
IL received more than the private COM
panles from the passenger traffic. This
SHOWS that the passenger traffic on the
government railways is twice as large
as on the private lines

ORIGIN OF THE SCRATCHES
Not Prehistoric Glaciers, But Moving
the Westinghouse,
Said John.

The summer visitor had driven in to
the select men of the town and his wife,
relates Youths Companion. The better
half was plump, good-hearted soul, I'M
I'll recently quite contented in her rural
prosperity; but lately, stirred up by the
influence of woman's club which held
weekly readings of papers on subjects
ranging from The Contribution Of
Charles II. to Religion" to THE Married
Woman in Political Reform" she had
become ambitious for "culture." Her
last plunge had been into geology.
'John,' said she, you see that fat
ledge of rock that lies bare on the road %
i suppose you're going to tell me that
it's an extinct volcano" INTERRUPTED her
husband, who had become familiar with
his wife's latest interest. "Of course I

scratches, but if knowledge amt accept

in ignorance. sha'n't interfere"
We'll, l see the scratches on the rock
"A1I VI Gil ART tuey are footprints
OF prehistoric rattlesnake?"
There! knew you wouldn't know.
Those are glacial scratches. When the
glaciers came down over New England
they moved slowly and ground the loose
rocks across the fiat surfaces, making
those scratches and grooves. Once right
here there was a sheet of ice 200 feet
thick"
See here, Marthy," said her husband,
i cont care how much you think things
like that, but don't you go telling 'em to
the folks here. Those who happened to
believe it would be misinformed and it
would be your fault Those who had any
sense would know We never had a win
ter such as you speak of-not in thou
sand years.
His wife sat up straight in indigna-
ton. John Stubbs," said she, "you Just

you'd rather not know any education. I
want you to understand I don't speak
about thousand years-it was million

quietly. "Those scratches was made

Question That Vexes Feeders

Feeding corn wet or dry is a vexed
question, and many have not solved the
problem satisfactorily. A professor
once asked farmer, What are you
feeding those hogs, my friend?"
Corn said the old farmer. Are you
feeding it wet or d2y?" Dry" Don't
you know that if you feed it wet to the
hogs they can digest it in one-half the
timer The farmer reflected few mo-
ments and said, Nov see here, pro-
fessor, how much do you calculate
hogs time is WORTH" 1t is not so
much matter of time; it is the assimi-
lation which is the important factor of
feeding.-Midland Farmer.

"LOVE, HONOR AND OBEY"
Probably More Difficulty with Theory
of the Vow Than It's Practical
Application.

Every few years newspapers and din
ner tables buzz with discussion as to
the use of the word ':obey" in the mar
riage service. Some unfettered spirit
refuses to tolerate it, says Youths Com
panion, and when she encounters cler-
gyman who has positive ideas of his
duty to the service of his church, clash
ensues which rarely rebounds to the
credit of the woman.
Is there is not more difficulty with the
theory of the VOW than with it's actual
application to domestic life-that is,
among reasonably consiGerate and low
ing people?
In the home, the wife "orders" rather
more than the husband. To begin with,
she orders the dinners, and thus deter
mines what the man shall eat. She
orders her own clothes, and he must
look at them. whether he likes them or
not. She orders the manners of the
children, and he has little choice in
accepting them, whatever they are.
The practice of Hypnotic suggestion"
is as old as happy marriages; and the
journeys that have been taken. the
houses that have been bought. and the
gifts that have been made as the result
of the obedience of husbands are I'M
counted. The old song comes daily
true, when the woman sings:
"We'l even let them hold the reins.
But We'll show them the way to so:'
This applies to the comfortable log
trot of everyday life When the sun
shines and the pace is easy, it matters
little about the reins. But if two peo-
Dle find themselves behind a pair of
frightened runaway horses. their only
safety lies in one having the power to
drive and the other having the sense
to sit fast and keep still. If both take
hand with the reins, disaster is GER
tain. 1t may come in any case, but a
divided responsibility invites it.
It is for such an emergency that the
promise of obedience by the wife pre-
pares the married couple In a crisis.
one of them must decide how to act.
The husband may decide wrongly or
foOlishly; but some one must drive.
and in doubt or danger the wisdom
and courage of the wife are best shown
in obeying orders, not in disputing
them.

Keep Buildings Well Pa. nted

Many farmers wait several years
after painting building before paint
ing it again They wait until the
building is in bad condition and it re-
quires as much or; more paint to cover
1t. as it did at first. Buildings should
be painted one coat every two or three
years. This done, not only will the
cost OF repairs be lessened, but appear
ance of the place will be much i'm
proved. Fresh paint applied often,
even though IN small quantities, keeps
wood and met.l from decay.-G. H.

Any Farmer Can Build It with Or

The cut gives frame and plan for
a building or stable generally used by
the small farmers of western Kentucky.
The low cost of building is not the only
feature that recommends it as it is quite
roomy for the amount of material used.
Any farmer with ordinary tools can
build it and save the expense of car

through door (a), to run down only as
fast as the chickens eat it from the floor
through opening at c. Nail on a strip
at the front to prevent the chickens from
working the feed out on the ground. Tho
opening should not be large enough to
permit the fowls getting in to stratch out
the feed. 1t may be fastened to the sida
of building or long strips may be nailed
upon it each side to prevent it's being up

GOSSIP FROM:
SCANDINAVIA:
DENMARK.

Copenhagen, Oct. 20.-At the open
ing OF the debate on the budget in the
lower house of the rigsdag today,
Premier Deuntzer announced that
very appreciable advance has been
made in the negotiations for an inter.
national guarantee of the permanent
neutrality of Denmark. The ministry
the premier added, desired to extend
the system of parliamentary govern
ment, which was the only means OF
assuring to the people share in the
direction of their country's affairs.
Copenhagen, Oct. 2o-The departure
of Queen Alexandra for England,
which earlier in the week was post
poned until today on account of the in
disposition of her sister, the dowager
empress Dagmar of Russia: was again
postponed, this time indefinitely.
The folketing has passed bill
granting pension of honor" of
about $1,000 a year to the widow of
the late Prof. Niels Finsen, the in
ventor of the red light chamber for
the treatment of skin diseases. The
landsting, or upper house of the rigs
dag, will no doubt vote the same
way as the folketing.
A committee has been organized at
Korsor for raising money for mon
ument to Jens Baggesen, lyric poet
who houriished in the early part of the
nineteenth century. 7
Copenhagen, Oct. 14.-Great excite
ment has been caused by the expected
passage of the Russian Baltic fleet
through Danish waters. Danish pilots
left several days ago for Reval and
Libau, their services having been re-
quested on behalf of the Russian
navy. There are rumors that Japan
csc agents have chartered neutral
vessels and are cruising in Danish
waters in order to watch the Rus
sian fleet. The Danish cruiser Helm
dial and some torpedo boats have been
ordered to put to sea.
Thirteen men belonging to Berg
thora, a fishing schooner, left the ship
in boat at Patursfjord, Iceland, and
started for the shore The boat sank,
and all were drowned The captain
and the mate of the schooner were
among the victims.
An autopsy proved that DR.. Niels
Finsen's death was caused by the cal
cification of the outer portions of the
heart.
A statue of Andreas Peter Bernstorff,
the great Danish statesman, was un-
yelled in the Bernstorff Palace park,
last month. The ceremonies were at

nent persons, including the king and

The dedicatorv address was made by

moved from the statue, Simonsen, the

Goats Help in Loading Sheep.

Some of the western masters who
make a business of shipping sheep to
market have trained goats to assist in
loading the double-deck cars. AS soon
as these Judas Iscariots start up a
chute, the sheep follow on into the car.
Just as soon as one car is filed the
goats worm their way out and slide
down the chute ready for another.
They are worth their weight in silver
for this purpose, for by their aid 1t only
requires but a few minutes to load q
whole shipment. @ ~ 49, -
