Mrs. Baldwin Tells Her Story

"Yes, those people in Sekondi did
help us to leave Africa, but it was

sician, DR.. Gray, told us we would
have to leave Africa. We were not
starving. We had money enough to
live on, but not enough to make the

Doctors wife came to US, and told ne
that in accordance with the usual Gus

was a practice in the colony that,

The Farmers Course

The Agricultural college at Fort
Collins has completed arrangements for
the second annual course for the stock
men and farmers in Colorado. The
course opens January 18th and con-
tinues until the 9th. The great in
terest manifested and the large at
tendance at this course last year was
a surprise to all parties concerned and
the outlook is particularly bright for
an even larger attendance this year
Some of the brightest men in the live
stock business in the United States
have been engaged for lectures and
demonstrations during the course, and
every minute of the time spent at Fort
Collins during these two weeks will be
interesting and instructive.
Some of the leading educators along
agricultural lines will be present to
aid in the work, among them being
Prof W. J. Spillman, of the U. s
Department of Agriculture, at Wash
ington, D. c., who will lecture on
grasses for the range and for semi
arid conditions such as prevail in this
state. No man in America is per-
haps so we'll posted on this question as
is Professor Spillman, he having
spent the greater part of his life in the
study of this question and is there
fore prepared to give our people a
great deal of information that cannot
help but be valuable.
N. II. Gentry. of Sedalia, Mo. one
of the most prominent breeders of
Berkshire hogs and Shorthorn cattle,
will be present during the course as
also will Supt, George McKerrow, of
Wisconsin, an expert in all that per
tans to the breeding, feeding and
management of sheep. Prof G. F.
Curtiss. of Ames. Ia, who was SO
popular at the course last year, or
Prof. w. ] Kennedy, professor of
animal husbandry at the Iowa Agri-
cultural college, will also be present,

materials used during the course be.
ing the only expense incurred by the
students.
The College is better equipped than
ever before to give practical in.

to the telephone exchange intending
to settle with the Colorado Telephone
company for the hot air service which
they furnish. When he reached the

a MODEL NURSERY.

The House Beautiful describes a
model nursery, not a handsome
room with furniture made to order,
decorated walls, and nursery rhyme
pictures, but simply a big, sunny
room at the top of the house. "In
one corner is the girls doll house.
On a uncovered stand under the
window is a sizeable gas stove with
an oven and two burners. Here the
children make candy and bake APP
pies; here the little girls wash and
iron their dolls clothes without let
or hindrance from the rulers of the
kitchen. There is a deep closet to
this room, with drawers allotted to
each child. In the lowest drawer
are old gowns of mothers, old hats
of fathers, the loveliest old arti-
fetal flowers, ~parasols, shawls de-
lectable and everything you can
imagine for dressing up or play-act-
ing. A very small room adjoining
is fitted up as a workshop for the
oldest boy. A carpenters bench fills
most of the space, having clamps
and vises, and drills and screws, and
other mysteries requisite to the
handicraft. A shaft runs round the
room, holding models of various
things, tins of glue, stains, varnish.
A cabinet of tools hangs on the
wall"

TAKING THE BEE CURE.
Pointers on interesting Subject Given
by Life.

One of the latest cures for rheu-
matism is bees. These are applied
to the place or places most in need.
Care should be taken before APP
plying the remedy to secure good,
active bees. Some bees are naturally
timid by nature. They are under
sized and underfed and have not
the courage of their stingers. 1t
must not always be inferred, how
ever, that the size Of a bee deter
mines his power. 1t frequently hap
pens that a small bee will make up
in energy and perseverance what he
lacks in avoirdupois.
Some bees have naturally kind
dispositions. They avoid trouble. 1t
is almost unnecessary to say that
these are not the best for our pur-
pose.
With a little experience the pa
tient will be able to tell almost at a
glance the most ferocious bees, and
will learn methods Of his own to
goad them on to their task. 1t is
well, is possible, to examine them in
dividually, and see that their sting
ers are in perfect order.
A bee with a weak stinger only
does harm, for he interferes with the
best work.
1t is well known that bees are
methodical in their work, and it is
not well to hurry them too much.
When you have your swarm ready,
place yourself unadorned in an arm
chair with some good book and let
the swarm loose in your room.
1t is believed hat they will in
stinctively choose the right places
to settle, but in case they do not at
first, let them try over again. Poke
them up occasionally with a sharp
stick.
Do not doze off while they are ap-
plying the cure. The mental part
is essential. The patients attention
should be fixed on himself, even if it
requires some effort of the mind.
If you see no immediate improve
ment, don't be discouraged. Get
new bees from time to time and
keep it up.-Life.

w STOLE A PUPPY.

A Connecticut paper, mentioning
the purchase Of a fine Gordon puppy
by a gentleman named Haas, added
"On Thursday he went away to
work, leaving the puppy shut up in
the barn. He did not get back till
eight o'clock in the evening, and
while he was putting out his horses
the puppy a out in the barnyard.
"In a. few minutes Haas heard it
yelping piteously. Thinking that
one of the cattle had either hooked
it or stepped on it, he ran out just
in time to see a huge horned owl
flying off with the puppy in his
claws. He ran after him hallooing,
but the owl swooped on through an
orchard, and this was the last he
has since seer of his Gordon puppy"

Thoughts From The Editorial Pen
TO HUSBANDS.

Always complain OF being tired,
and remember that nobody else
gets tired.
Your wife should have every
thing in readiness for you, but
You should NOT do anything for
her.
When your wife asks for money
give her a nickle; ask her what
she wants with it, aud when she
tells you, ask her if she can't do
without it. Then go down town
and spend ten times the amount
for cigars, for they are a neces-
sity.
Go down in town for an even
ing, stand around on the street
and talk politics; it's
more interesting than to stay at
home with your family.
Charge your wife not to gossip,
but you can spin all the yarn you
wish.
Have your wife get up and build
the fires, but don't get up your
self until the rest of the family
are eating breakfast, as you might
catch cold.
Wear old clothes and make
yourself as untidy as possible,
until your wife's health begins to
fail; then it would be best for you
to fix up some, for in all probabi-
lily you will want another when
she is gone.
Have a smile for everybody you
meet, but get a frown on before
you go home.
Don't be ashamed or afraid tc
say kind things. There are som
people who look as though they
had been caught stealing sheer
after they give way to an impulse
to be pleasant. Kindness is not
weakness. There is no danger o
over production along this line
There is a marketf for all the brigh
looks and good wholesome pleas

word. Men and women are lai'

er have had a few t%houghtfr

At this season of the year when
wedding bells are sounding in the
air and young husbands and
brides are preparing for house,
keeping, our kindest thoughts
turn to them. A happy home is a
crying need for everyone. The
world may abuse and wrong you,
but if you have a home where vir-
tue, peace and plenty reign, you
can defy the world. Let it rage
and howl abroad rs it may in the
sunny home circle you can sing
"Let the Storms Come Down"
This delightful anchorage must be
of your own construction. Other
people can erect guide posts
showing the road that leads that
way, but you yourself must travel
the road and furnish the equip
ments for the journey. Work is
the great venue all must take.
Look around and e if you can
find any substantial, c%ontented
household but somebody is peg
ging away and striking hard licks
to make it so. Idleness produces
! mischief and crime in man, and
i'll health and bad temper in wo-
man. We cannot think Of any
feature of the home life so likely
to wreck as a lazy, pe'er-do well
man moving around, or a nervous
idle, fretful woma on the look
out for something to make her
unhappy. This sort of people can
never be contented unless they
are miserable. and they should be
yoked together to ave spelling SO
many homes. 1t takes two to
complete a home and either OF
the above mentioned will insure
sorrow and trouble in any family
where their lot is cast.

Many a discouraged mother
folds her tired hands at
night and feels, as if she had, af-
t er all, done nothing, although
she hadsnot spent one idle mo-
ment since she arose. Is it Moth
ing that her little helpless chill
dren have had someone to save
them from harm, and to listen to
their little childish griefs and joys;
that her husband feels "safe"
when he is away at his work, be-
cause her careful hand directs
everything at home and makes it
a safe refuge and place of rest for
him when his days labors and
perplexities are over? Weary and
faithful mother, be encouraged
when you know you have done
all you could.

to select a husband to match her
