II must have been a very funny

lady who was reading 1t doubled up
in fits Of stihed laughter every few
minutes. The young man in the seat
with her could not help stealing q
glance At the pages Of the book which
was evidently 10 funny. but whose
cover was carefully doubled back out
Of sight. and soon he began to laugh
As he unblushingly followed the story
page after page. shaking with sup
pressed merriment.
The woman in the seat at right an.
giles became interested and looked
over the girls shoulder. Presently
her face broadened into q grin and
soon she was convulsively shaking.
The man In the seat across smiled At
the scene. A boy few seats down
the aisle grinned sympatheticaIly. A
darky still further down showed all
his white teeth. The contagion spread
until the chr was nearly on the verge

up to leave the train. yet no one but
the girl herself had any idea as to

GOOD SOIL FOR crops.
Some Comments BY J. r. Volta. Of
Gustavus AdoIphus College.

An ideal soil for the growth OF
crops should be one containing the
property OF being friable. loose and
porous: one that retains a reasonable
amount OF moisture and heat. one
that will allow itself to be worked over
easily and Of which drainage il good !:
one whose acration or ventilation 10
good. To get such a soil We would
recommend the following composition:
I. A certain amount of clay. enough
to regulate the capacity Of the soil for
water and heat as well as mineral
matter.
g. A certain amount Of humus to
supply nutrition and regulate capacity
for moisture. heat and chemical &C.

J. A certain amount OF sand to In.
crease capacity for drainage and till.

This would. In brief. furnish n good
mixture of the various soils for such

CARING FOR LAMPS
SOME POINTERS WELL WORTH
Remembering.
Daily Cleaning One Of the Most I'm.
pertant - Necessity for Boiling
Both Wieks and chImnsys-
Treating Metal Portions.

Two Of the greatest family evils are
a scolding wife and a smoking lamp.
The first must sometimes be endured,
but the second may be remedied by q
little care.
Daily cleansing of every lamp in
use should be as much q part Of the
housewives duties as making the
beds. and the boiling Of the burners
at least once in a fortnight is as i'm
portant ~ the weekly sweeping.
Wicks should not be trimmed wits
shears. but wiped on with soft cloth.
for In the former case there are al.
ways jagged or uneven portions left.
which cause the Fame to fare and
the lamp to smoke. BY careful wip.
ing Oh the charred portions Of the
wick each day steady. symmetrical
light will be obtained.
Another precaution to take to pre-
vent wicks from smoking is to boil
them. Buy them In punches. place in
porcelain kettle. cover with strong
vinegar. bring the latter to q boil
and set where the kettle will keep
warm for three hours.
Drain out the wicks. dry thoroughly
and keep away from dust. Wicks
thus soaked almost never smoke.
II chimneys are bought In quantity
and boiled. they also may be prevent
ed In 4 great measure from breaking
Lay some shavings In the bottom OF a
wash boiler. pack in the chimneys.
throw handful Of salt over them and
NIL with cold water. Allow to come to
boil slowly. simmer for two hours.
then take from the nre: cover thick
ly SO that they will be at least three
hours In cooling. When cold wash
the chimneys In hot water in which a
little soda has been dissolved. Rinse
In hot water. dry and store In a
closet.
Boil all the metal portions OF lamp
burners In strong soda water for ten
minutes. rinse and dry IN sun or on
the stove. Chimneys should also be
washed In hot soda water. rinsed well
and dried with crumpied newspaper.
Never leave the wicks turned up
when the lamps are not in use. for
the oil will Ooxe out and run down
the base. creating not only an un-
pleasant odor. but being disaGreeable
to handle. In carrying . lamp from
one room to another. turn down the
wick In transit. but never allow the
wick to remain turned down. for It is
sure TO smoke and smell disagrees.
