there are no children there to en-
liven the scene.
The most beautiful of the char.
tiles are those devoted to the re-
liei of sick and helpless babies.
At beautiful park near the city,
the kind ladies OF indianapolis
have established one of these

As members of the family. A
former Governor of Alaska came
from New York as a waif, and
was adopted and reared by an
Indiana farmer and achieved
success and proTinenca. Many
similar cases might be mention
ed. The farmer who thus res.
cues an unfortunate does good in
many ways and, like mercy, is
lhrlne blessed. He increases
his own happiness while conferr-
in,, happiness on others and thus
becomes the greater pa'riot by
rearing good citiz rs for he Ia

Baby on the Farm.


no place in the real scheme OF
things. Ii there are no babies
there will be no boys and girls.
Ii no boys and girls, men and
women will be impossible.
Though other things are raised
on the farm, tie real thing Tor
which they are intended is rear
ing children. These are the
most valuable crops. 1t is be-
cause of them and not indepenG-
emily OF them that the other crops
are produced. The most important
thing OH any farm is that chubby
little mass of humanity III the
house trying to eat the pattern
in the carpet or get his big toe in
his mouth. J hough the mere
embryo Of man, an ihciiieni
savage, its correct rearing, lis
gradual unfolding, its slow deve
lopment through various mental
and physical stages constitute
the most vital problem OF civil
cation. If you are SO uniortu-
nate as to have no baby in The
house, OBJ, ain one as soon as pos
sble from some orphan as! lum
or charity mission. Many good
married couples, excellent men
and women, have not been bles =
ed with children of their own.
When wise, as they usually a,e,
they never fail to adopt one or
more boys and girls whom they
rear as mem 5ers of the family.
Many of the most lasting friend
ships, most loving and lifelong
devotions have sprung from such
adoptions. The childIess cou-
pie was made happy III thou
sand ways, the intolerab!e lone
illness was driven off by childish
laughter and noise, the sorrows
and sickness nit gated by kindly
ministrations.
If you are a bachelor and want
to keep from rusting out, from
drying up with selfishness, from
becoming hated skintlint, hunt
you up a baby without delay
There are plenty of them 10 b
had in the cities, and sometimes
in the country districts; poor lit
tie waits that need a home and
kind prolection OF course, YOU
will have TO hire an elderly wo.
man TO look after he baby, to
wash, clothe and feed if, and a
first blush YOU may be appalIea
by the trouble and expense. But
it will pay you better than any
investment you ever made; bel
ter than that last bunch OF year
lings you turned on gra~s; better
than that pen of promising pigs
or flock of SOuthdown lambs that
you bought at bargain. That
baby will not be in the house
long before you have learned to
love it better than all the world
besides. Your happiest moment
will be that when it first recog-
nizes your presence, first shows
a disposition 10 go to you. When
it actually cries for you as you

The Old caifskin Shoe Lace.

The modern boot lace is anything but
a luxury. It is nearly always just too
long or little too short, and, although
made fiat, it soon becomes curled with
little wear. In the old days laces
were made Of calfskin, and nearly ey-
cry farmer was an expert. He would
cut disk of leather three or four
inches in diameter, stick the point Of
sharp knife blade in board, place
the thumb nail the thickness of match
from it and quickly draw the string
through the opening, the perimeter be-
ing reduced the thickness of match
at every measure of the circumfer-
ence. Then the square string was
rolled between the sole of the shoe
and the floor till perfectly round, after
which it was creased with tallow.
Such lace would last for months.
Round laces are now made of fiber,
but their shine soon wears off, giving
them a much worn appearance

How Dolls Are Made.

Many big things are needed to make
small doll. She has her beginning
in great trough, where workmen
knead up into dingy paste old card
board, even old gloves, old rags and
gum tragacanth. They are great
brawny fellows, these men, naked to
the waist, wearing leathern aprons.
In an adjoining room the paste is pour
ed into .molds for the busts, the arms,
the legs Of dolls innumerable. There
Is a special machine for stamping out
the hands. I should not like to con-
TESS how Ion. stood in front Of it,
fascinated by the steady stream Of
queer little hands that fell ceaselessly
from the iron monster. It was aw
full, uncanny, hypnotizing. Indeed, the
whole sight was grim and monstrous.
The low factory rooms were misty with
steam and lit by strange red glowing
fires. Always the great steel machines
pulsed and changed, and through the
mist sweaty giants of men went to and
fro with heaps Of little greenish arms
and legs until you began to think that
some new Herod had killed all the lit
lie people in the world.-Everybody's.

Plain Words.

Freeman, the historian, it was said,
was apt to grow irritable over matters
Of intellectual difference One day he
was at the Macmillans' when the con-
versation turned upon the subject Of
Ireland. Mr.. Macmillan said that, for
his part, he was in favor of granting
autonomy.
Whereupon Freeman began to growl
at the use of Greek word.
"Why can't you speak English" de-
manded he, "and say home rule in
stead of speaking Greek, which you
don't know?"
One Of the guests flushed with anger
and ventured to reprove Freeman, call
ing his attention to the respect due
their host and at the same time paying
tribute to Mr. Macmillan's remarkable
abilities. But, although Freeman did
not apologize in so many words, he
smoothed the matter over by humor-
GUS repetition of his criticism Later
some one mentioned govt. "There you
go again. exclaimed Freeman. "Why
can't we call it toe woe?"

Romance Of a Neckiaoe.

Some years ago an old Frenchwoman
died in a poor part OF Dublin, and her
little effects were put up for auction.
Among other odds and ends was a
necklace of dirty looking green stones,
which did not attract much attention.
However, a shrewd pair OF dealers
thought there might be money In it.
and decided ON purchasing, clubbing
together IS for tho purpose. On taking
it to a we'll known jeweier he prompt
~ offered 1850, which sum they re-
fused and sold the necklace Of purest
emeralds for $1,000 in London, where
Lord RoseHery on his marriage pur-
chased it for something like 100000.
The old Frenchwoman's mother had
been attac hed to the court Of France,
and the enleralds had once formed part
of the crown jewels.-London Answers.

Prey of the Sparrow Hawk.

The sparrow hawk almost invariably

striking down birds as large as the
wood pigeon, though usually going no
higher than blackbird. If it does not
exactly swoop like the larger hawks,
yet it must have conditions of chase Of
it's own choosing That is why the
small birds usually mob it with impu-
nifty Wien they are numerous enough
to bewilder 1t. Once, however, saw
a sparrow hawk that had been modest
ed for some minutes by a perfect cloud
Of green fnches dart among them and
secure victim. One day / had one Of
these birds pointed out as the one

close to the house toward dusk and

Napoleon Trusted His omens.

Napoleon always had an unlimited
trust in his presentiments. When the
news came to him that one Of the Nile
river boats, the name Of which was
L'Italie, had been wrecked and the
crew put to death he gave UP all hope
Of ever completing his conquest Of
Italy by annexation. Napoleon believ-
ed that the stars exercised an occult
influence over human destinies. When
General Rapp, at one time his aid-de-
camp, returned from the siege Of Dant-
sic he found the emperor gazing with
concentrated attention at the heavens.
"Look therer' shouted the emperor.
1T is my star! The fiery red one, al
most as large as the moon! 1t is be-
fore you now, and, ali, how brilliant!
It has never abandoned me for sin
gle instant I see it on all great oc-
casions. 1t commands me to go for
ward; 1t is my sign Of good fortune,
and where it leads I will follow"

worn at the edges. Nevertheless be

ance, which the sight Of Juliet Airing

the door, did not In the least diminish
