CLOSE MARSHALL FIELDS,
Building Inspectors Allege That Nee,
essary Alterations Were Refused.

Chicago.-Marshall Field G Co.'S
big retail store was closed on orders
from Building Commissioner Bart
zen. Police were stationed at the
entrances to the big State street es-
adjustment and customers were
turned away. Persons in the store
were not interfered with. The clos
ing of the establishment was ordered
by the city authorities on the ground
that the building does not comply
with the city ordinances and that the
firm has persistently refused to make
efforts to observe the law.
Sergeant Dougherty and six po-
licemen were ordered to the store,
accompanied by deputy building in
spectors. At the store the order had
been anticipated. The doors were
closed as soon as the police arrived,
and it is said that ad%mittance was
denied them. A great fight in the
courts is expected.

Doors of the Word.

To be simply a hearer of Gods
Word is not only to deceive oneself,
but to increase ones responsibility
'Inasmuch as ye did it not" is a sharp
sentence which Jesus one day passed
upon His unfaithfIl followers. 1t is
a great thing to remember that Gods
Word may be translated into Chris
tian living. If for each day We should
be guided by n single precept, in
the process of time we would ONE
to know Il Bibles as thoroughly as
we know our own names, but We
would also come to the place where
the revelation of Jesus Christ would
be very attractiyely presented to one
who might not read Gods Word, but
who would study our lives. BE ye

KILLED IN BURGLAR TRAP,
Prominent Farmers Son Found Dead
al Neighbours House.,

at House.
Richmond, Ky.-Branded by the
strongest sort of circumstantial evil
dence as a common housebreaker,
John Woods, twenty-three years old,
the son of William Woods, a promin-
ent citizen of Estill County, lies dead
in the home of his father with the
top of his head nearly blown off. The
Killing was done by Thomas Boggie.
also a prominent farmer, who lives
Just over the Estill County line from
College Hill. 1t was the direct result
OF a unique and original effort on the
part of Mr.. Boggie to bring down
the thief or thieves who have several
times recently stolen from his home
articles of value.
Boggie, who was going away to
spend the night, fastened his shot
gun Immediately in front of the door,
but on the inside of the room. He
tied a stout cord to the trigger, doub-
ling it back SO that if the door was
opened it would pull the trigger and
flre the gun. In the morning he re-
turned at an early hour and found
Woods lying dead in front of the
door The tragedy has created ire
mendous excitement on account of
the prominence of the parties. Mr..
Boggie and Woods senior are close
personal friends.

Churning Temperature.

Temperature at which butter should
be churned is Of very great import
ance IN the making of good batter
The cream should he properly ripened
and the temperature should he such
that the whole milk will be uniform
The temperature of the cream cannot
be raised suddenly. A i;erson cannot
take milk at 40 degrees out of the cell
lar. heat it up to 65 degrees and com
mence chnrnng Immediately, nor
should the temperature be raised by
pouring in hot water. In both cases
the temperature will be very uneven,
a pa: Of the nill will be warm and
part # the milk will be cold, and il
the hot water be poured in it will
coagulate part of the casein-:hat
with which it comes into immediate
contact. Previous to churning the
cream should be in a warm room for
several hours, and it should have
reached desirable temperature at
least two hours before being put into
the churn. On the farm this is easily
done by placing the cream in the
kitchen or some other warm place,
at least IN the Wlnter season. In
creamery it will be necessary to keep
The temperature of the whole building
at or above the temperature at which
1t is desired to do the churning This
problem of churning temperature is
very difficult one. on account of the
great variability o! OR season; in
the summer the temperature will nat.
high ba ir,to
it will naturally be too low. While
in the creamery the desirable temper.
ature is so to 55 degrees. in the farm
home 1t will be from 60 to 65 degrees.
The reason for this is that in the home
the churning is done by hand and In
the factory 1t is done by machinery
driven by steam. The lower the TEN.

New Bit Brace.

Electricians especially experience
considerable difficulty in boring holes
in corners and other obscure points
through which to pass wires to can
nee. with bells or incandescent lamps.
The ordinary bit and brace does lot
suffice for this purpose. as it is impcs-
sible to operate the handle OF the
brace when 1t is close to the wall. An
exceedingly simple contrivance at
tac.ied to the ordinary brace has been
patented by two Buffalo inventors
and is designed for effectively and
conveniently boring holes in hooks
and corners inaccessible to ordinary
braces. At the top of the section Of
the brace holding the bit is bevel
gearing meshing at right angles with
a shaft extending through the con-
Meeting arm. At the end of the shaft
is q small handle and the operation
will. be at once obvious. When IL is
necessary to bore hole in place
where the ordinary brace cannot be
used the auxiliary handle is brought
into action, which can be fully turned
without coming in contact with the
walls or other distractions. The
mechanism is SO arranged that the
bit and brace can be used for crdi'
nary purposes where there is ample
room and the auxiliary only brought
into use in case of emergency.

A Man Of Many Friends.

1t was characteristic of the late Sir
Henry Irving to make friends with
Americans whom he met in London,
and 10 show his appreciation of the
esteem and admiration in which he
was held in the United States. But
it would have been asking too much
to expect him to be familiar with each
persons claim to his recognition. A
contributor to the New York Sun says
that 1t was often case of "goins it
blind on the part of the actor.
A certain New Yorker arriving In.
London found an invitation from Sir
Henry to one of the famous suppers
in the Beefsteak Room of the Lyceum
Theater. He accepted the invitation
with delight, had as good time as
the guests at these gatherings in
variably did, and ultimately became a
close friend Of the actor
But neither at that first supper nor
at any time later did his host say a
word to explain how he happened to
invite man he had never met be-
fore. So at last his American friend
decided to question him on the sub.
ject.
Tell me, Irving" he said, chow did
you happen to ask me to take supper
with you ten years ago in London? ?
I've often wondered why you did it. r
so have l." answered the actor,
blandly, "and to save my life I was
never able to recall what the reason
was. But I'm sure 1t was a good one.

were: 1880, s1,576,OO00OO; 1890, So
S0S,00oo00; 1900. s2,9S1 900, 900 The
average values of live stock on each
farm in the United States are reported
by the last six censuses were: 1850,
1916; 1860. $533; 1870, $462; 1880,
1893; 1890. $5o6; 1900, 1886. The
value of live stock in 1900 was great.

minican revolutions are opera-bouffe
affairs. AS a rule, the slaughter is
great. Except that the leaders are
much given to promulgating constitu.
tons and appointing cabinets, cam
paigns on the island are much like
raids of wild Indians Zulus or Kaffirs
upon other tribes. They are poor shots
and fire as often from the hip as from
the shoulder, but they are fierce and
terrible fighters, filled in battle with
the blood lust of savages, and from
time to time captains of no little mill.
tary genius rise among them.
War in the island has horrors of its
own. Every Dominican can pound with
his terrible cocoa macaque and hack
with his matchete, whose wounds heal
slowly. Rifles are universally distrib-
uted and machine guns are plenty.
But. though they possess all the dead.
!y engines of modern warfare, the
blacks know nothing of the appliances
for relieving the sufferings and saving
the lives of the wounded. There are no
surgeons, no medicines. Fallen with a
broken leg or faint with loss of blood,
the soldier is left to succumb to hun
ger or thirst, or more likely to be de-
vonred by the wild hogs that infest the
forests.

Determining Sex.

Many attempts have been made to
determine the sex before birth, but as
yet nothing definite has been accom-.
pllshed. However, have made some
observations that I wish to record
here. The weaker part is the most
certain to reproduce. Fer three sub.
sequent years We had a one-ynarold
bull at the head of the herd, and.
much to our dislike, the old COWS, and
some OF the large heifcrs, had male
offspring, while few young heifers
that were less in size and weight tLan
The hull by which they We're served
had female offspring. When we dur
ing two years used an old bull for serv.
ice the order was reversed, some OF
the largest and best cows gladdencd
our hearts (for we wanted to rear
calves from best stock only with fe-
male offspring.
Some may smile ut the foregoing,
so will say that my observations
have been verified By experiments and
observations made in Europe; further
more, there are no rules without ex.
ccptions.
In Germany it has been found that
the o;terer a stallion had served in
one day, the larger was the percent.
age of male offspring. Tie stallion
became physically weaker after hay
ing served several times consequently
reproduced his like BY careful otser-
vations the Prussian government ex-
peralcnters have found that if n stall
lion served one mare day the result
was 91.6 males 10 every 100 females: il
ne served two mares 4 day, 1923
males to 100 females; when serving
three it was 1i2.43 10 100.
Others may have noticed that on
farms whcre only one O.. two males
are kept for flock of fifty to 100 hens
males will predominant in the brood
of chicks. Why? Because the males
by serving SO many hens were physi-
cally weaker. and thus reproduced
their like. On the other hand, when
one male is kept for every ten or
dozen hens. the result will be more
females than males.

Puzzle Of Silver and Lead,

The contemporary chemist consid
ers not only what things are but what
they may have been. Every lead mine
is silver mine and every silver mine
is lead mine all the world over, says
Donald Murray. 1t is curious. too, that
these methods come together in the
order tons Of lead, ounces of silver.
Why should this be? 1t is suggested
that the silver is dsintegration prod
uct of lead. Once on time the silver
particles broke away and experiments
might show that they are still break
ing away and leaving the lead. In the
same way copper and gold often occur
clriously together. Who will take the
trouble to free by the usual crystalliz-
ing process ten tons of lead from all
traces of silver, then put it aside for
ten years and test again for silver by
the same process?
