"All ask" said Nan Patterson in the Tombs, els to

Men and have little stronger limbs and lit

rainbows little furher and then they too like the hitler
child must the mocking folly of it all and weary,
heartsick, cry for the refuge-home
Well Nan will soon be free to go back home.
But her innocent girhood-that is no longer there
anywhere.
The old home can again be it was for heavy

sin has thrown deeper shadow upon Nan herself.
The faithful old father long from her side in her

The verses are by that unfortunate woman Saxony's
former crown prncessLouise The translation is by Ed
ward Vance Cook the poet and lecturer.
Divorced from her husband just before he assembled the
throne the iron has entered the soul of the brilliant i'm
pulsive, er1ng princess
Her sensational elopment with the tutor of her child
ren-a French northumberland a sensation in two
hemispheres 1t the old story of the esrangement of
husband and wife, the advent of the empter fascination
and flight 1t the old story of ict love whose vision
speedily vanished in the land of dreams.' And stimuli
taneous with disllusion Punishment from Saxony
The woman crept back, do drawn by the lure
OF her children She had almost gained to the i'm
perla palace and arrested There followed naturally
reaction from unnatural relations hatred of the lover
And the old love for her husband back her heart
1t was too late.
The husband she had deserted King Frederick
Augustus Royalty had been made cuckod because of her
She had disgraced herself her lord her children And yet
she miserable for sight of hm-and for her babes
Some say the woman is insane 1t may be- She has
had cause. Anyway she writes pathetic lines what
might have been.
The lesson is for all and for those who for petty pique
turn toward witcing voice that holds the promise to the
ear but breaks it to the hope
Whoever you may be, man or woman read again the
touching lines written by unhappy and beware
the tempter of your gay.

has been eloquent with successes
This applies to all lines of athletic
endeavor, but is especially applicable
to the track teams, whose consistent
wins have been the talk of the inter-
collegiate world.
Those directly connected with ath-
letics have for years know of Keene
Fitzpatrick's ability and his constant
ly increasing success has made his
name familiar to those without the
pale.
1t is no exaggeration to say that
today Fitzpatrick stands head and
shoulders over every trainer in the
country, just as Yost outshines rival
football coaches. And without Fitz-
patrick, Yost could not produce the
winning football teams he does.
Keene Fitzpatrick was born in
Boston In 1865. He never went to
college, receiving only common
school education. He became inter
ested in athletics early and his splen-
did physique and consistent training
enabled him to earn reputation as a
first class all-around athlete. His
speciality was sprinting and this Sc
cured him a place on the great fire
brigade team of Natick. Mass, with
such teammates as Mike" Murphy,
Yales noted trainer, and e. Donovan,

Sought for as a coach, Fitzpatrick
in 1890 accepted a position at Yale
as assistant trainer. In 1892 he came
west, as director of athletics at the
Detroit Athletic club, where he
brought out many shining lights. II
1894 he became trainer of the Uni
versity of Michigan and helped turr
out a football team that won the
western championship and defeated
Cornell, 12-4, then considered Won
derful performance.

to 0.
In 1896 Fitzpatrick went to Yale
but remained only two years. return
ing to Michigan. In 1899 he was
appointed director of the gymnasium
position which gave him a perma-
nent chair on the faculty.
Fitzpatrick's work in turning out
first class teams has been consistent
The unparalleled success of Michi-
gan's football teams since 1900 Is
due as much to the skill of the
trainer in keeping his men in mag
nificent physical condition as tc
sary to remove a Michigan man from
game on account of injury or ex.
haustion.
But it is in preparing track mer
that Fitzpatrick ability stands forth
for he not only conditions the mer
but coaches them. Since 1900 Michi
gan has won every western intercol
legiate meet, and has lost but one
dual meet-that with Chicago ii
1901, In 1900 the university sent 8
team of four men to Paris to com
pete in the international games ant
won three seconds and one third. Fitz
patrick's proteges have never lost ar
indoor meet, although competing with
the best western and eastern intercol'
legiate teams.
The most brilliant Michigan vic
tories on track and field have beer
those won during the last three years
in the Philadelphia meets. In 1908
Michigan astounded the east by win
ming the four-mile relay hands dowr
from the cracks of the east, Yale
coming in a poor second. Last veal
the men from Michigan not only won
the relay but the shot-put. sprints
and hurdles as we'll The success OF
the team this year is too recent to
warrant repeating.
This consistent winning has made
Fitzpatrick famous as a trainer, and
has endeared him to Michigan men
Quiet, transformations, Fitzpatrick
never advertises himself except
through victories. He never touches
intoxicants; does not smoke In short
he is an ideal trainer, sound In body
and mind-the sort of man father
wants to intrust the care of his son
to; who by quiet example sets an
ideal for all young men with whom
he comes in contact.

We have been importing several
million pounds of the celebrated Com
bebert cheese each year. paying rs
to 80 cents a pound for it at whole
sale. The United States dairy ex-
perts have just concluded experiments
in it's manufacture at the Storrs
Comm experiment station, and have
been able to make cheeses that ex-
perienced dealers pronounce superior
to the imported article, The value
of these Investigations is that the
farmer with four or five cows can,
by following the instructions that
will be published shortly, make cheese
equal to the imported article. and
realize three times as much from his
milk as he does if it is made into
ordinary cheese.
Cheese curing depends on the ac-
ton of certain vegetable molds. These
molds cause a breaking down of some
of the chemical constituents Of the
green cheese, rendering 1t more easily
digested by the human stomach. An
interesting thing discovered In regard
to curing Combehcrt cheese is that
only two different molds are required

M B. Waite, in charge of investiga-
says: Peach yellows cause a large
and entirely needless loss in many
sections. All that is needed to get
entirely rid of this disease is for the
orchardist to go through his orchard
three times each season, notice every
tree, and take out and burn root and
branch all showing any sign of yell
lows. This must be done at the first
appearance of the disease to prevent
it's spread. Inspection should be in
June, August and October"

wherever there is an annual rain
fall of 10 inches, durum wheat will
yield paying crops" says Professor
A. F. Woods of the bureau of plant
industry. "The Introduction of this
plant has extended the wheat growing
area to hundreds of thousands of
acres that heretofore have been
thought unsuited to grain growing.
Another important feature of dur
UNI wheat is it's rust resisting pow
ers; where ordinary wheat was almost
ruined last year by rust, durum was
hardly touched.
THE millers are learning how to
handle this wheat, and the quality of
bread made from it is excellent. 1t
yields several more bushels per acre
than the ordinary spring wheat, and
we expect to see it grown all over
the spring wheat section very ex-
tensively."

WASHINGTON, May S.-Bitter rot
costs the apple growers Of the coun-
try millions of dollars annually. Its
ravages have been worst in the OZARK
apple region of Missouri and the AL
bemarle pippin section of Virginia,
but all sections are more or less
troubled with it. In 1903 Ozark grow
ers lost half their crop, while In Vir-
ginia the loss was greater, reaching
as much as $4,000 in single orchards
This rot is caused by fungus
that grows in the wood of the tree,
sends microscopic threads to the sur
face, and upon them produces spores
The latter ripen and are spread in
midsummer. Warm, moist weather In
August and September Is most favor
able to development of the rot.
The bureau of plant industry rec
ommends spraying with Bordeaux
mixture at the proper times will hold
the disease in check, If not entirely
destroy the fungus causing 1t. Large
orchards in Virginia have been select
ed, and the effects of spraying at
different times noted during the pres
ent season. Just now 1t Is advised to
give a thorough spraying early. and
then again every few weeks through
July and August.

JIM BLUDSo OF THE PRAIRIE
BELLE.
BY John Hay.

BY John Hay.
Wall, no! l can't tell whar he lives,
Because he don't live, you see;
Leastways, he's got out of the habit
OF Twin like you and me.
Whar have you been for the last
three year,
That o haven't heard folk tell
How Jimmy Bludso passed in his
checks
The night of the Prairie Belle?
He wern't no saint-them en-
gineers
Is all pretty much alike
One wife in Natchez-underthe-Hill,
And another one here, in Pike;
A keerless man in his talk was Jim,
And an awkward hand in a row,
But he never funked, and he never
lied
I reckon he never knowed how.
And this was all the religion he
had
To treat his engine we'll;
Never to be passed on the river;
To mind the pilots bell;
And II ever the Prairie Belle took
fire.
A thousand times he swore,
He'd hold her nozzle agin the bank
Till the last soul got ashore.
All boats has their day on the
Mississip.
And her day come at last
The Movastar was a better boat,
But the Belle she WOULDN'T be
passed.
