TAKING CARE OF HARNESS.
Do Not Let It Get Dirty and Dry as II
viii Be Sure to Break.

There Is nothing like leather"
But there is nothing like knowing how
to keep your leather goods in fine con-
dition, too. Leather Is composed of a
mass of fine tendrils. intimately inter-
locked and entwined. When in good
pliable' condition, each tendril is ca.
'pable of much stretching.
II allowed to become dry and hard,
when the leather is subjected to a
severe pull, the tendrils break instead
of stretching. But this does not mean
that leather boots or harness should
be kept soaked with oil or dressing
Elbow grease applied in quantity is
better.
"All dressings should be applied
sparingly," is the sound advice of a
saddlery concern. Black oil should
always be used on black harness and
not neatsfoot oil, as the latter will
draw out the black dye and leave the
harness brown. The black harness
fats now on the market make excellent
farm harness dressing. They contain
the "nourishment" necessary for keep
ing the harness in good order.
But first, all dirt should be washed
off with luke warm water and ordinary
soap. The black fat should then be
applied with a cloth, given a short
time to penetrate the leather and then
rubbed dry with another cloth.
Some make the mistake of oiling
without unbuckling the harness. The
parts that need punishment most are
under the buckles where the metal
causes hardness and brittleness. IT.
people would vary the holes of the
harness occasionally it would last
much longer.
An objection to neAsfoot oil is that
1t inclines to wash off the beeswax
from the stitches. leaving the bare
thread, which then soon breaks.

Young Woman, Breaking Down. Tells
Story to Pastor When About to
Tie Knot, Who overpowers
Escort,

Asbury Park, N. J.-Through an ap.
peal to the police for protection. Miss
Belle Grouse, Of Stanhope. N. j., made
public a story OF an alleged attempt
by Perry G. Bissell, of the same town.
to make her become his bride prac-
tically at the muzzle OF a revolver.
Her narrative astonished persons who
knew the young man favorably as a
student In the State Normal school In
Trenton and as Sunday school teach
er and choir singer In the First Pres.
byterian church of Stanhope. Miss
Crouse's father, Rev. N. p. Grouse, ia
pastor of that church, and Bisselrs
parents are among its leading men,
bers. Nevertheless, ardent wooing of
the girl by the singer was discouraged
resolutely by both her father and
mother. and the other day the young
woman, after conference with her
parents. wrote to Bissell that she did
not wish to receive his attentions any
further.
Bissell. her story goes. evidently
was made frantic by receipt of the
letter. He hurried from Trenton to
Stanhope, and went directly to the
parsonage. but In the meantime the
Crouses had gone to Ocean Grove, for
brief stay. Bissell learned their
whereabouts. and followed them to
the resort. He did not obtain their
Ocean Grove address, but he walked
the streets in the hope of meeting a
member OF the family. To his mani
fest delight. he encountered the girl
herself In front Of drug store. He
excitedly demanded that she consent
to an immediate marriage. She de-
clined to do so. and urged him to
leave the town. He refused, and for
two hours they stood or strolled in
the street, the young man alternately
imploring and commanding the young
woman to become his wife, Miss
Grouse repeating her request that he
go away from Ocean Grove.
The pastors daughter suspected no
danger, though she saw her sutton was

Different Names For Waves.

They have curiously different names for waves about the coast of Great Britain. The Peterhead folk call the large breakers that fall with crash on the beach by the grim name of "Norrawa (Norway) carpenters On the low Lincolnshire coast, as on the southwestern Atlantic fronting shore of these islands. the grandly long un- broken waves are known as ''rollers. Among east Anglians a heavy surf, tumbling in with an offshore wind or In calm, is called by the expressive name of "slog," while a we'll marked swell. rolling in independently of any blowing, is called "home." There is no wind," a Suffolk fisherman will say. "but nasty home on the beach, Suf- folk men also speak of the bark of the surf, and a sea covered with foam is spoken of as Heather white" The foam itself is known as spoon drift" So, in the vernacuar, we have it, "The sea was all a feather white with spoon drift"

Lonq Hair a Mark of Honor.

Tn olden times excessively long hail was considered a mark of honor and rank. For many centuries long haiY was in France the distinctive mark of kings. The ancient Persians and Par thians of high caste wore long, flowing hair. while the poorer classes were obliged to cut theirs short. Home, speaks of the long haired Greeks by way of distinction.
 The Gauls considered long hair a mark of honor, but Caesar obliged them to cut it off in token of submis. sion. Long hair was thought by the Franks to denote high birth, and ths Goths looked upon 1t as a distinctive mark of culture and honor. Short hair was considered by nearly all the ol,i nations to denote thraldom, and even now criminals have their heads shaved. Denver Times.
