Intellect In Sex.

The common impression that the av.
erage man is superior to the average
woman Intellectually at least in Origi-
nality, inventiveness, reasoning power
and the like is beyond doubt due to the
common habit Of judging each sex by
its most superior representatives. This
seems fair enough and would be fair
enough, but for the difference between
the sexes in variability-that is, the
range of spreading down from and up
above the average, In intellectual traits
at least the male sex is the more varia-
bic group. The very highest and very
lowest marks in a mixed college class
will commonly be given to men; the
variability found among boys in the
numerous mental tests which have
been given by Psychological investiga-
tors is from 3 to 10 per cent greater
than that found among girls. OF the
thousand most eminent intelIects of
history 81 per cent are men, the varia-
bility which causes the monopoly Of
genius causing also the existence OF
twice as many male as female idiots!-

Equal to the Emerrenor.

Being equal to an emergency helps
one out of plights into which the best
Of US sometimes fall. A certain actor
came so belated to the theater one
evening when he was to play Othello
in the tragedy of that name that be for
got to blacken his hands and rushed on
the stage with them white and his face
sooty. OF course the audience giggled,
and poor Othello, when he realized the
cause OF the mirth, was almost unable
to proceed with his part and 30 deeply
mortified that, when he made his exit
after his first scene, he declared that
be could not finish the performance,
but a happy thought struck him. he
procured a pair Of flesh colored gloves,
blackened his hands, put the gloves on
and walked quietly on again. There
was quite little tittering as the Moor
went on with his lines, but it entirely
subsided as during a speech Of one Of
the other characters the dusky lover
carefully drew of his gloves, disclosing
hands to match his face. Then those
whose risibles had been affected felt
small and awkward.

Letter to Elihu Warren.

Milford. Del.
Dear Sir: There are several ways OF
cheating in milk. An Old-fashioDed
way is to water it. Nobody waters it
now. A better way is take out the
cream-rich milk with the cream taken
out is as as poor milk with its cream
all in.
But we needn't go into particulars.
You don't rob your milk and your
customers.
Paint is as easy as milk to cheat with.
Good paint is as rare as good milk for
human nature is much the same in
milkmen and paint men.
You are just and true with your milk;
so are we with our paint. DevOe lead
and zinc is twice as good as mixed
paints: There's twice as much butter
in it.
Mr.. J. T. Ladd, Cheraw, S e., writes: !:
"When Mr.. Evans painted his house
with DevOe, he figured on how other
paints covered and had enough left
TO paint three large rooms. He was so
pleased that he used DevOe on two
other hOuses."
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvOE & Co.,

Keep plenty Of vegetable matter in the

much commercial phosphate under the
crop, except nitrate soda, which should
be used as a top dressing on all growing
plants. Get soil in the best pulverized

There should be plenty, or much stir

weeds get through the ground. The

AS soon rs one crop is out put another

your own seed, or buy the best seed at
four times the cost, If necessary. Seed
sown in March and April should be
covered shallow. not rolled sOwn in
May and June, deeper; by rolling seed
in row and loOsening soil on top. The
most important part is to harvest your
crops and get the most money out Of
them without having consumer to tell
you that they paid too much for them.
Do not gather vegetables In the after
noon or evening, but in the early morn

o'clock this afternoon in the Tourist
house at the corner Of Occidental aud
