When to Shake Hands.

The question of when and how to
shake hands with guests is difficult
one. A hostess should shake hands
with every guest who comes to her
house. whether her own friend or the
friend of her friend, both on their ar
rival and departure. A young girl in
troduced to an older woman should
await the action of the elder, who, II
kindly disposed, will shake hands. Any
man presented to a woman-unless he
is decidedly elderly or distinguished
must wait for her to make move
ment toward shaking hands, and when
one woman presents to another the
man who is accompanying her 1t is
the duty of friendship, as well as hos
vitality, for the man to be met with
a cordial handshake.-New YORK
News.

liza E. Jennings, of English birth, but
fifty-four years residence in America,
who holds the worlds record for de-
voted, faithful service as church
singer.
Mrs. Jennings, who is now 70 years
old. was born in 1925. Almost as soon
as she could lisp she began singing
and always in church she sang heart
ily. When, in 1887, public funeral SER
vices for King George ". were held
in London, Mrs. Jennings, then child
of II, and taught by her father, sang
Pope's ode, 30, Vital Spark" with the
adult choir singers. And when, In
1898. the jubilee Of Queen Victoria was
celebrated, Mrs. Jennings received
special invitation from the director OF
the Chicago Apollo Club to sing with
his trained vocalists In the jubilee con-
cert. In England, as young glri'
Mrs Jennings learned and sang all the
famous oratories and much OF the
finest church music, in connecuon
with various choirs and singing so
eieties.
Mrs. Jennings voice, always deep,
full alto. still does fine service In CIV
ing body to the choir tone OF the
church of the Annunciation, where
she has worshiped and sung steadily
for over ten years.

Tramp or Dude7

Just after the theatre was out last
night, and when the theatregoers were
drifting into the cafe at the Baltimore
Hotel, one Of the most wobegone speci-
mems OF humanity Imaginable made his
appearance in the hotel lobby. His
lace was grimy with apparently the
accumulation of weeks, his hair was
dlsheyelled and his clothes of sort
which any self-respecting scarecrow
would spurn with scorn.
He stood there for moment, with
an amiable grin on his countenance
before he was espied by the house
Waterman, who Immediately made a
dive for him, and conducted him out
side. He did not speak a word to the
oflcer or any one else, and made no
resistance whatever when he was
ushered to the street His appearance
started a lively discussion as to
whether or not he was the real thing.''
Some insisted that he was a genuine
hobo who had wondered in to take a
look at the hotel. Others claimed to
have detected indications that his
rough exterior was assumed, and as
serted that he was in reality we'll
known business man of Kansas City
who was paying an election bet. IF
so, his makeup was so artistic that
he has apparently made a mistake in
not choosing the stage as his voca
tion.-Kansas City Journal.

Curing Collie in Horses.

A veterinarian writes as follows:
One Of the most fruitful cases of collie
Is the too common habit of allowing
horses to partake of large draughts Of
water Immediately after finishing a
feed Of oats. There Is no surer way or
generating an attack Of collie than this,
the reason being that, when a large
quantity of water is thus imbibed, IL
has the effect of carrying with 1t out
of the stomach and into the intest1neS
some of the freshly eaten grain. This
grain being still-in raw and und1-
gested condition, it's effect when 1t
reaches the intestines is to give rise
to the irritation and Inflammation
which are the immediate causes OF
collie. In dealing with cases Of this
kind the most obvious course to adopt
is to take precautions to prevent the
animal from drinking large quantities
of water in the circumstances just re-
ferred to. When an animal falls a
victim to an attack of collie, the best
thing to do is to administer dose
consisting of one ounce of sweet spirits
OF inter along with half pint Of
whisky in some hot water. Very often
simple cases of collie yield to the adj
ministration of couple Of ounces or
bicarbonate Of soda, diluted with wa
ter. and given as soon as the first
symptoms Of the attack are noticed
Should the administration Of the BIZ
carbonate of soda fail to give the de-
sided relief, no time should be lost In
following it up with the laudanum and
spirits of inter.

thought"
do you suppose thought then that
I'd think what think now?" she cried
Historically. do you suppose that l
imagined that you would abduct me to
a desert island to force me to marry
you? Never"
For want Of better occupation he
searched along the shore for clans,
finding a few, but deciding after one
taste that 1t would be better to look
for berries. 1t was too late for berries
apparently, and there was another
pause and reflection. He had just de-
cided that it was as well that Nan
Carroll would not marry him, when
that changeable young woman
pumped herself down upon the moss
beside him.
"Why don't you talk?" she asked
cheerfully. Its awfully lonesome
around here"
Tucker gasped, but for moment he
did not dare speak When he found
words it was of casual affairs he spoke,
not Of himself nor Of their predica-
ment, and presently they were chat
ting as merrily as though there mad
been none of the stormy scenes of the
afternoon.
They were still talking when sud
denly they heard footsteps behind
them and they sprang to their feet.
Just behind them was tall clerical
man in blue overalls and checked cal
leo jumper.
II hope don't intrude,'' he said,
quizzically.
"Are YOU Man, Friday?" demanded
Nan. '@You see we are Mr.. and Mrs.

Broom Corn in Oklahoma.


An increased acreage of % per cent
of broom corn is reported from Okla
homa this year. Woods County, Okla
homa, was the banner broom corn
county last year. The growing OF
broom corn in Oklahoma is not con-
fined to Woods County by any meanss
on the contrary, the neighboring coun-.
ty of Woodward is almost as big
producer, and the crop is becoming
a main one in Garfield, Grant, Beaver,
Dewey, Comanche and Kiowa. Illinois
growers are viewing the increased.
acreage of Oklahoma with alarm, and
the acreage this year in that State, al
though extensive, is not so large as
usual, mainly because the growers can
not compete on the market with Okla
homa broom corn. In 1900 only the
States of Illinois, Missouri and Kansas,
were ahead of Oklahoma in growing
broom corn, and the Territory has sur
passed all but Illinois since that time.
The yield per acre in oklahoma is
usually from a fourth to half a ton OF
the cured product.

How to Raise Turnips.

This is q South Carolina mans way.
"The way that l make a beginning Is
first to sow in August in rye the patch
that l wish to cultivate In turnips the
next year. Then In the spring after
the rye is harvested / turn said patch
with No. IS pillow, Oliver chill If pos
sible; then run a smoothing harrow
over 1t till level. Then in two weeks
haul out lot manure and stable manure
and scatter broadcast over it. Then
pillow with ordinary pillow. / make a
rule to plow my patch over every time
1 plow my crop, up till the LIST of Au
gust I have never failed to get q
stand of turnips when ground Is pre-
pared in this way. Then when it Is
prepared in the above manner l sow
the seed the last of July or first Of Au-
gust broadcast over the ground thus
prepared. Then l harrow the seed in
thoroughly with a side-harrow. I had
one-quarter acre in last year that was
prepared in this manner, and l sold.
S12 worth and had plenty left to feed
cows and hogs on. I have half acre,
prepared in the aforesaid manner, and.
l expect to sell $50 worth this fall.
am a renter, and have lived on the
same landlords land for twelve years.
Some five years ago / sent to the seed
men for turnip seed to SOW and divided
the seed with my landlord, and he,
knowing / was successful in raising
turnips, requested me to SOW his patch
that he had prepared after his own
fashion. l. scattered the seed for him.
then / scattered the seed on my own
ON the same day. The result was that
he did not get turnip, while mine
were successful. So you can see that
to be sure of crop, the land must
be cultivated right before the seed are
sown. If any of the readers doubt this,
there is a way that I can convince
them. Readers, commence in time for
next year if you are fond of turnips.'

the use of the ordinary lime sulphur

the scale insect Professor E. P. Felt
finds that by using common washing
soda in place Of caustic soda very
efficient wash for scale can be made
without boiling. The preparation is
composed Of twenty parts Of lime, If
teen parts Of sulphur, and about ten
pounds of sal-soda to fifty gallons Of
water. Put five or six pailfuls Of hot
water in a barrel, add the lime, then
the sulphur and finally the sal-soda
and stir until slaked, adding little
cold water if necessary to keep the

of boiling. The materials are common
and easily obtained.

SHOUT REVISION.
Eastern Forces In Scheme to Throw
Dust In Eyes of Public.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Sept. %
Within two weeks there has been an
active movement in the east to create
sentiment in favor of revision of tariff
at the next session of congress. This
movement originated in the New York
Sun, and has later appeared in the
Pittsburg Gazette, Indianapolis News,
an dthe Hartford Courant The Gazette
and the Hartford Courant. The Gazette
been staunch republican organs, and
the Gazette is published in the heart
of the strongest stand pat section of
the country
Some wonder has been expressed by
eastern men at this violent outbreak
of revision talk in these newspapers.
and an effort has been made to ex-
plain it.
An explanation which seems to fit
the case has been found by Repre-
sentative Bede of Minnesota, who be-
lieves this revision talk mas back of
it desire on the part of certain inter.
ests to divert public attention from
the railroad rate issue.
