WAS AN AUTOCRAT.
COUNTRY DOCTOR RULED WITH
ROD or IRON.
oIsobedience 10 His Orders Met with
Sharp and Decisive Action
Had Curative Methods All
His Own.


A party Of men we're discussing the
passing Of the old-time country doc
tor before the advance OF modern sci
ence, and one of them told some sto
ries Of a practitioner OF this type who
was the terror Of his boyhood days.
He was a curious old aut0crat,
with curative methods all his own, +"
said the gentleman. Il remember
once a boy chum OF mine became af,
hlcted with large swelling or abscess
In his throat, which was growing rap
idly and threatening to make breath
ing impossible.
"Dr. x was called In. After ex-
amining the patient, he turned to the
mother with the command to bring
him a red-hot poker. AS he was never
questioned or dlsobeyed, the woman
hastened to heat one in the kitchen
fire.
When she brought It to the sick
room the doctor grabbed It and ad-
vanced TO the bedside with the gleam-
Ing point leveled at the boys head.
"Open your mouth. sir he com
manded
"The boy did open his mouth TO
emit a terrified shriek-which broke
the abscess and saved his life.
Il have said that DR.. K waa never
disobeyed, but l recollect now one oc-
casion on which a family attempted
to set his orders at defiance. You see,
he was really more intelligent than
the run of way out country doctors
OF those days. He went to Holland
for year OF study when he was
young and brought back some ad
yanced ideas. one OF which was the
efficacy of fresh air.
"You know how country people
close the windows OF sick room
tight. On the occasion In question the
patient was down with fever. Enter
Ing the room DR.. x raised both win
dows. ordering that they be left so.
"The women who were nursing
made no objection at the time. but
no sooner had the doctor departed
than they hastened to close the win
dows. Some distance away DIR. x
happened to look around and beheld
what they had done.
He turned his horse, drove back to
the house, entered the front door
neither knocking nor ringing, mounted
the stairs. walked into the sick room
lifted the thick knobbed cane which
he always carried. and deliberately
smashed one pane OF glass after an
other, until all were demolished
Then, without a word. or so much as
a look to right or left, he STROBE from
the room and drove away.

street Cars Fatal to Cats.

The street car bumped cheerily
along on the uneven tenor OF its way.
The one passenger groaned in unison
with the jolts and clung to the side OF
his seat with the stolid endurance OF
an Indian at the torture stake. The
conductor and driver were exchanging
"reminiscences.
I'VE ran over a dog this morning,
quoth the former.
You don't say!" responded the
driver. That was going some"

right out after cat, and bin! 1t was

what 1t is.
Just then another passenger board

A striking case Of forgiveness ex-
tended to a murderer to the extent OF
shielding him from justice occurred
recently IA Paris. A handsomely
dressed young woman. Mdlle. NJ Gou-
vier. was found in the street dying
from the effect of a stab in the breast,
and later in the day she expired in a
hospital. But not a word could be ex-
tracted from her as to the identity Of
her murderer. He did II in a fit of
jealousy" she said. "and because he
loved me-" The last words to pass
from her lips we're: Il pardon him"
She gave up her life, but not her
murderers name.

young woman named Louise

into a cab. and was driving on when

SEED SOWING.
Preparing, Planting and Caring For
Seed Boxes In the House.

Preparing, Planting and Caring For
Seed Boxes In the House.
With the sowing of seed is where the
beginner IN flower culture may make
most sorrowful mistakes. Here are
some little hints: The boxes in which
seeds are to be sowed should have
holes for drainage in the bottom, but
should not be so open as to keep the
soil dry. Ordinary garden soil may be
used in the bottom, but at the top
there should be a lighter soil, well
mixed. The small seed should be SOW
ed on the surface, then fine soil spread
over and pressed down, but not so hard
as to cause the soil to bake Coarse
seed can best be planted in little drills
or each seed pressed down into the
soil and the whole covered with thin
layer of earth, as with the small seed.
The soil should be gently sprinkled
with water Immediately after the
planting. Only the quantity of water
which the soil can absorb without be-
coming soggy should be given. The
box should be watered subsequently
whenever the soil becomes dry little
below the surface.
1t is a good practice to SOW the seed
in rows, as this enables the soil to be
stirred to prevent it from baking. The
box should be set by the window and
given plenty of light, but at the same
time shielded from the hot sun. When
the plants have grown to fair size 1t
will be warm enough outdoors to set
them out in the garden. Ageratums,
sweet alyssum. snapdragons. hello
tropes, Iobelias, nasturtiums and YER
benas can be treated successfully this
way.

Fourth of July and the Williams Red.
The Early Transparent can be picked
when three-quarters matured and put
upon the market, and that is where we
get our money They have brought
more money in our shipping to London
than any others.
The Fourth Of July is superior to the
Astrakhan and is better tree. One
can pick the crop in three pickings,
whereas the Astrakhan will take thirty
days, for, when the Astrakhan is near
" ripe, about the time we try to catch
hold of it it falls to the ground. The
union of the stem to the branch is very
poor, and the fruit drops. The only
objection we have to the Williams

GRANGE NATIONAL BANKS.
Pennsylvania Is Taking the Lead In
Establishing Such Institutions.

Pennsylvania Is Taking the Lead In
Establishing Such Institutions.
A strong effort is being made in
Pennsylvania to organize grange ma
tional bank in every county In the
state where the grange has a large
membership. This effort, like most eff
forts for the public good which have
heretofore been favored by this or
ganization, has met with criticism, and
some are wondering If the farmers are
wealthy enough to become bankers or
are going crazy in their attempts to
run the finances of the country.
The movement in Pennsylvania was
instigated by a member Of the Order
who is at the head of the national
bank and who advises the grange to
undertake the work of organizing such
banks. The majority Of the stock in
these banks is held by grangers,. but.
as we understand 1t, they do not nee
essarily hold all.
The first grange national bank ever
organized was that in Tioga county, Of
which Edward B. Dorsett, master Of
Tioga Pomona grange, is cashier and
of which State Master Hill Is the vice
president. a Pennsylvania paper says,
with grange bank stock In every
granger's family and their savings in
vested through 1t, will it not be an in
centive to start factories, build good
roads and have more and better
schools and churches In our country?'
