q short time ago,
A big church ceremony, or large re-

White messaline, silk wolfe and silk

Put every spare acre in COW peas
without delay The pea vines will
shade the lands and will enrich it. and
furnish several tons Of the best Of hay.
Sow peas and sofa beans on poor spots
where nothing else viii grow and they
will prove a benefit to such soils.
These are soil makers and animal fat
toner's. Wonderful plants. why do
not the farmers have eyes to see them
as their laborers and frlercs!

1t has long been a problem that has
been widely discussed. How can the
boys be kept on the farmsT In the
Progressive Farmer DR.. Freeman
gives some very good advice as fol.
lows:
| wish to say worl about the boys
on the farm, for from my cwn exper-
fence l think it far-reachlng and OF
much importance.
When was boy m. father did
many things which | thought 1 could
have suggested. some Improvement.
This think is general with boys on
the farm, and they feel like they have
been ignored when not consulted about
the work they are doing
| think it worth the fathers while
to talk to the boys about the work in
which they are engaged, Get the boys
ideas about the work, ask them how
they think such work should be done
to the best advantage and ,alk it over
with them, md when it 81 possible,
take the suggestions OF the boys and
show them that you have regard for
their opinions. This is one very good
way to get them interested IN the work
and make them feel and realize their
worth to the place.
Always explain to the 5o-s why you
do things, and why you think your
way is the best, and Away conslter
their suggestions and give your rea-
sons for not adopting them ii you
think best not to do so. All this goes
a long way toward satisfying and
contenting he boys as they go about
their work.
Don't fail to introduce the boys to
all corners high or low. DO this IN n
very polite manner just Gs IL all were
strangers and all were on a visit to
your house.
Nothing makes boy feel better
than WHEEL, in very polite manner,
you introduce them to your visitor out
in the field where he is at work, A
word of commeLdatlon in the boys
hearing does much good,
70 fail or any occasion to introduce
the members Of the family, from the
smallest up. 10 all visitors, makes 1t
very unpleasant often-tlmej TO the
family and also to the visitor. When
60 into a home and the man of the
home fails to introduce me to his wife
and others of the family as they stand
about, feel badly and generally
pressed to ask who he is, and thus
try to make 1t as pleasant for myself
and the family as possible.
Give the boys an interest in the farm
so they will get some money out Of it
each year as their own. A young fell
low feels badly without a cent in his
pocket when on Saturday evenings he
goes sporting his best girl
Help the boys and girls in all their
trials and little troubles and suggest
the best ways for them 10 succeed and
you will make light and jolly many
heavy hearts.

A sIsTERHooD OF WOMEN.

Women" says Mrs. L. Fl. Harris, In
the Independent, "have less faculty
for converting or forgiving one another
than any other class Of people in the
world" This is a sweeping Statements
but as there is really only one other
class Of people in the world-men--it Is
not so severe as it seems; many men
would be apt to admit it. 1t is really
only saying in another form what
Lecky said in his History of Euro
pean Morals" that men are magnani-
msus and callous, like the Romans, and
women tender and vindictive, like the
Greeks. TO get along just as well with

Heels Half a Yard High.

The streets of the old city Of Venice
were often extremely thick in mud, in
spite of the great sewers which dated
from the tenth century. Even now
the thoroughfares between the Piazza
and Rialto are sometimes sufficiently
bad. We are writing of the time
when the population was nearly FIVE
times what it now is, and when Vene-
tian trade was at its zenith. Well, to
combat this mud the ladies took to
high heeled shoes.
AS the mud grew worse the heels
became taller and taller until at
length they were half a yard high and
as difficult to control as a pair Of
stills without handles. The conse-
quence was that a lady IN full dress,
obliged to walk but a few yards, had
to be supported on both sides. This
was task for the black pages or for
the lovers, who had at that time be-
come very conventional part of We
netian society.

A Friday Ship.
ed

A true story is told Of skeptical
Massachusetts captain who, way back
in the early years of the Republic, de-
termined to exhibit the fallacY Of the
Friday superstition. He contracted
on certain Friday for the building
of certain ship, and it was arranged
that the keel of this vessel was laid on
Friday, that she was launched on Fri
bay, named Friday, commenced load
ing on Friday and hauled into the
stream on the same day of the week.
To add to the possibilities of disas-
ter, negro cook named Friday was
engaged, and, thus fully freighted
with the sinister name, the Friday
sailed on a Friday, bound to a port
in the West Indies. From that day
day to this no tidings Of the i'll con-
ditioned craft have been received.

A Terrible Crime.

At the coming April term Of the
CRIMINAL court at Bluefeld, one OF the
most remarkable murder trials in the
history of the whole State of Virginia
will be heard. 1t is the case of Harry
Taylor, charged with the killing of an
unknown man and hiding his body
under the floor Of deserted shack In
the mountains near Athens. Taylor,
it will be remembered, was arrested
on information furnished by his sister,
to whom he had boasted Of the crime
To her he made the statement and her
husband, thinking there was nothing
in it, would not investigate. Another
sister came soon to pay visit and to-
gether the two went to the deserted
house and found the body.
According to the confession or one
of the confessions, the killing occurred
while they were playing cards and
while the victim was in the act OF
drinking from a bottle, having his
head thrown back and not noticing
the actions of Taylor. Taylor shot
the man, emptying his revolver in him
aud then seizlng the pistol belonging
to the unknown man emptied every
barrel CT that weapon into his body
also. He then reloaded his pistol
time and again and continued to shoot
into the body of his victim, shooting
his eyes out, and otherwise disfguring
him. The dead man had used knife
to draw the cork from the bottle of
whiskey and Taylor. seized this and
disemboweled the already mutilated
body. He then hid the body, remov-
ing some boards from the floor fol
that purpose. This we learn is in eff
feet the confession of Taylor, who
claims he was afraid the man would
kill him. He is said to have stated
that the reason he shot him so many
times was by reason of the great fright
that came over him when he saw the
lusterless eyes of the dead man staring
at him in the little hut on the mou1'
tain side. The loneliness and horror
of the situation caused frenzy that
found its only surcease in the attempt
to utterly annihilate the man he fear

You seldom will find brainy man
with a round head. The head that
contains lots of brains either is very
long from front to back or else iTreg'
uiar. You can learn something Of a
mans mental ability by the hat he
wears. If his head is so bunny that
it seems as if he never could get hat
to fit him be probably is genius or
an eccentric in some particular line.
If his head IS long from front to
back he is clear thinker and keen as
a razor. So if your hat costs more
money than your friends hat does and
you are harder to fit be consoled by
considering that your brain is worth
more.
