An Ostrich Race.

In selecting ostriches for mena GER
les or geological gardens, the swiftest
are chosen; not because it will be nee
essary for them to run in their new
quarters, but because swiftness is a
good indication OF health and robust
ness.
One Of these agents visited pen Of
ostriches in Africa. At his cali, two
beautiful birds came up to him. Be-
Ing DESTROYS Of testing their speed, he
arranged with the keeper that they
should run race; so he caressed the
birds, and showed them a handful of
figs, Of which they are very fond.
The ostriches were ssld while the
visitor walked to certain distance.
At signal they were set free, and
began to run for the figs. They came
bounding ale : at a terrific rate, tax
Ing twelve or fourteen feet at a strike.
They ran neck and neck for more
than half the distance, their wings
working like arms and making a great
sound. Presently one drew ahead,
and, looking behind, as a boy in a
foot race might do, to see where his
rival was, and finding the other one
beaten, the winner slackened his pace
and gently trotted up for the prize Of

The art of short story writing has
not become widely popular accom-
plishment in this country, according
to the testimony Of the judges in the
Collier prize story contest. There were
no less than 1900 stories sent in for
competition, and William Allen White,
who was one of the judges, states that
each Of the first 80 in every 100 could
be cast aside with five minutes read
ing. Only one in hundred contained
the rddiments necessary to make a
good story even passably good
story. The work Of the amateur, says
Mr.. White, may hide itself for ten
pages, and then stick UP like a sore
thumb In trite handling of an excel
lens6ituation; but the professional writ
er, the skilled workman, shows his pres
ence in the first sentence, proves him
self in the first paragraph, and estab-
fishes himself in the readers conf

NERVOUS HEADACHE
MARRIED A YOUNG w0MAN'S HAP
PINESS FOR SEVEN YEARS.

Interfered With Her Social Duties and
Threatened to Cause Her Retire.
ment-How She Was Cured.
Every sufferer from nervous headache
knows how completely it units one for
the duties and pleasures of life. Any
little excitement, or over-exertion, or ir
regularity brings it on. Sometimes the
pain is over the whole head. Again il
is like a nail driven into the brain, or a
wedge splitting it open, or band tight
ening about it. AT one time it is all il
the top of the head, at another it is all
at the base of the skull.
Most headaches can be traced to some
faulty state of the blood. When the
blood is scanty or charged with poison,
and the nerves are imperfectly nourished
and the digestion weak, one of the COM
monest results is frequent and severe
headaches.
The important thing is to get rid of the
diseased condition of the blood that
causes the attack by the use Of a remedy
that will do the work quickly and
thoroughly. What is that remedy? The
experience of Miss Ellen McKenna fur
nishes the answer. She says:
"For more than seven years was
great sufferer from nervous headache and
dizziness. My stomach was disordered.
md became so restless that could not
sit still any length of time. Dizziness
interrupted my work greatly. At first
the attacks were not so severe, but they
gradually grew more violent, and finally
became SO acute that / was on the point
of relinquishing my membership in the
different organizations to which l be-
longed."
what saved you from that necessity
"a very simple thing; the call of
member of one of the clubs, who strongly
advised me to try DR. Williams Pink Pills
before giving up. 7 acted on her sugges-
ton at once, and after steadily using this
great blood and nerve remedy for two
months, my headaches and my dizzi-
ness entirely disappeared.
Miss McKenna is secretary CT the
Associated Ladies' Guild, and resides at
No. 48 Wait street, koxbury, Mass. DIR.
Williams Pink Pills have cureo many
hundreds of similar cases, and can be
confidently recommended TO drive all
poisons from the blood and to give needed
strength to the nerves. Every druggist
keeps them.

THE STEERS RATIONS.

The bunch of steers entering their
second winter are no doubt getting
along very well now on what pasture
is available and eight or nine pounds
daily of corn on the stalks, says Farm
Field and Fireside. Their ration is
fairly we'll balanced by the pasture,
particularly if it is clover in whole
or part; and the bulky corn fodder is
preparing the animals in the handl-
ing of large quantities of feed.
Very soon feeding in the lot will
begin in the north. Some thing must
take the place of the pasture, some
thing that will help balance a gener-
GUS corn ration. This will be clover,
alfalfa or pea hay, at the rate of about
eight pounds per day for thousand
pound animal. Another change, how
ever, must be made. The fattening
period requires concentrates; the
corn on stalk ration instead of be-
ing increased so that more corn may
be fed, is cut down gradually tc one
half and snapped or ear corn fed. The
word gradually is important; the
change to heavy feeding of concen-
trates when made suddenly only de-
ranges the steers digestive system.
Haste here, as elsewhere. makes
waste.
Easier on the steers mouth than
ear or snapped corn are crushed corn
and corn and cob meal. Crushing
is sufficient and cheaper than she'll
ing plus grinding. Corn and cob
meal has an additional advantage
over corr meal in being much more
easily digested, less likely to founder
lon the whole, much more whole
some.
Animals now a year and half old
may be put on full feed by the middle
of winter. BY June or July they will
be ready for market. At fair price,
then, profits may be expected; for
the early feeding has been in large
part inexpensive roughage, which well
balanced and bulky, prepared the AMI
mails for the proper handling OF the
heavy fattening ration. This ration;
too, has been made up in important
part Of moderately priced materials

Social EQUALITY in Cambridge.

Before Longfellow bought the house

Some one once tried to persuade hel
to have her trees tarred to protect
them from caterpillars, which also in
vaded her neighbours trees.
She refused to be so cruel to the
caterpillars.

said.

The warmer the milk whent set,
the more complete will be the separa-

any given lower temperature; and
the more rapidly the temperature
falls, the more rapid will be the sep

Cream rises best when the tempera-
ture is falling; very slowly when the
temperature is stationary; and little
or not at all when the temperature is

CLEAN THE HORSE.

To keep horse in good healthy
condition constant care needs to be
exercised in keeping the skin clear
and free from scurf and dust. If the
pores of the skin are closed, large
quantity of waste matter is retained,
which in effect is as unhealthful as if
the bowels were closed and the
wastes of the system in this way
were retained and absorbed.

SALT Fol. SHEEP.

The effect of salt on the health OF
the sheep is not generally under
stood. It's effect is to give tone to
the organism. The ash of the blood
of a healthy sheep contains about
sixty per cent salt, and the ash Of
urine thirty-three per cent. The
scarcity of such an important consti-
tuent in the blood means relaxation
of vital energy.

Commissioners GARFieLD'S RE-
PORT.
1t Ii Found to Be Favorable to the
Great Packers.

IL IL round TO be Favorable TO the
Great Packers.
The report of Commissioner of Cor
Oorations Garfield on the beef indus
try, after about eight months investi-
cation in Chicago and elsewhere,
shows that there has been an enormous.
amount of exaggeration in the state
ments that have appeared for some
time past in regard TO the beef bust
ness. This investigation was set or
foot by resolution of the House Of
Representatives adopted March Z, 1904,
and the ascertained facts after a most
rigid examination Of the methods and
general conduct of the business are
contained in a report covering sos
pages. Its figures and tables conclu
sively show that the popular belief in
enormous profits made by the large
packers, such as Armour & Co., Swift
& Co. and Nelson Morris & Co., and
In the exclusive control of the busi-
ness which many think they enjoy, Is
really without foundation.
The report made to President Roose-
Welt by Commissioner Garfield is real
ly the first official statement Of the ac-
tual conditions Of the beef business
that has been made. and as all the con-
clusions arrived at are based. as shown
by him. upon data officially obtained,
there seems to be no reason why they
should not be regarded as reliable and
in all respects trustworthy.
This report shows why the price OF
both cattle and beef advanced to the
highest level ever known after the
short corn crop of 1901, and states that
because of the decrease in number or
cattle and also in decreased weight,
''the high prices of beef which caused
so much complaint among consumers
at this time were attributable wholly
to these abnormal cattle prices"
ALI the figures of the live weight
and live cost of all dressed beef cattle
were obtained from actual killing rec
ords and all information of every kind
obtained by the Commissioners was
voluntarily and freely offered by the
packers, all books of record and pspers
connected with the business having
placed at his disposal.
To make certain that the results OF
the investigation should be absolutely
accurate, the Commissioners states that
a double method of ascertaining profits.

is the only woman who has ever been
admitted to membership in the Speed
way Association of New York and the
only one having permit to drive three
horses abreast on the speedway. MISS
Morosini's fad is odd and costly turn
outs, all designed by herself and made
by special order. There are seven We
hicles in her stable, a set OF harness
for each vehicle and whip with a
solid gold handle to match each set or
harness. The turnouts cost from $4,000
to $4,000 each and each whip cost $500
Miss Morosini has her harness dyed
specially to match her gowns and when
driving she is robed in colors that har-
monize with her costly turnouts and
surroundings. She owns twelve horses,
all chestnut in color, which match per-
fectly and which cost $4,000 apiece
Aside from her fame as whip, Miss
