1t II generally believed that the
soft-shelled egg occasionally laid by
the hen is due to deficiency of lime In
the food. Some experiments carried
out at the experiment station in Kan
sas, however, seem to indicate that
this Is not the right explanation. It
rather appears to be case Of arrest
ed development due to nervous shock,
and to be analogous to abortion In
mammals. Soft-shelled eggs were laid
at the experiment station by hens sub
jected to nervous excitement. And 1t
was shown that on an ordinary diet
a hens normal system contains
enough lime for the shells of i've or
six eggs. II lime Is withheld, then.
after laying these 1ive or ak eggs the
hen will cease lay ing. But II lime In
limited quantity, be given the hen lays
eggs in proportion to the amount
given. though the shells. on investi-
cation. are found to. be somewhat thin
ner than normal.

Corsicans are mourning the death
OF the brigand chief 'Bellacoscia. Of
whom they are almost as proud as Of
Napoleon. His real name was An
tonia Bonelli. In consequences Of 4
vendetta he and his brother Jacob
were compelled to seek safety In the
mountains. For 4S years they terror
lied the country, going. from province
to province, and all efforts OF tho
government to capture them we're un-
availing. In 1892, aged and broken
down. Bellacoscia voluntarily deliv-
cred himself into the hands of JUS
tice. So great was the national adj
miration of his bold EXPLOITS that the
courts at Ajaccio acquitted him, but
the police expelled hin and he sought
a home In MarseilIes. He could not
endure his exile more than few
months and secretly returned to end
his days in the wilds of Corsica.

The girl looks at him In bewilder-
ment, but he continues:
THE cannon ball would reach there
in 100000 years."
She begins to tremble, thinking his
mind is wandering. He goes on:
And the sodnd of the explosion
would not be heard there for 1000 900
years after the ball had struck. Isn't

MANY DON'Ts THAT DEMAND ATTENTION
BY Lizette.

Never demand attention from man.
If you do he will Immediately find five
but If he sees that you are not likely to
pine away If his attentions cease he will In
all probability continue them assiduOusly.
That's because he likes to imagine he con-
trolls the situation.
So he does to outward seeming, but very
often there's "a man behind the gum in the
person of a wise young woman that the world
wots not Of
he is quite likely to offer magnanimously to
let you have yours.
Then is the time to be tactful and accept
the offer In a becoming spirit.
You can't compel man to be attentive to
YOU against his WILL but you can make him
think he wants to be attentive to you.
So many girls make the mistake of insist
ing that man should be unfailing in his de-
votion.
They let him see that they expect great
deal from him.
Just because it is expected he loses the de-
sire for 1t.
Love will not stand coercion; it must be
given spontaneously.
At least that is the case on the mans side.
With a woman 1t is different.
She likes to have demands made on her
love-
You rarely hear of a woman being bored
But man after the first novelty wears
off is always bored by woman's jealousy.
Do not imagine for one moment that ! am
advising women to meekly sit down and re-
ceive with thankfulness any meager atten-
lions "A man may be inclined to fling to them.
l consider that woman cheapens herself
quite as much when she demands too much
as when she Is satisfied with too little.
If mans interest in woman Is on the
wane she can never revive 1t through de-
mands.
She can only revive it through making
herself very charming and somewhat mac
cessible.
When she demands his attention she irri-
tates him and widens the breach between
them.
The woman he loves may lead him by a
silken thread, but If she be wise she will
never draw the thread taut
When a man says must" to a woman she
may outwardly rebel, but in nine out of ten
cases she inwPrdiy rejoices. Always pro-
in the man.
But no matter how much man loves a
woman he does not relish the word must"
from her lips.
A woman may lead man, but she never
can drive him.

A corn wheat" story which was promul-
weeks ago has awakened widespread In
quiry, In this country and abroad.
It has been announced by the Depart

caused these newspaper statements Is known
correctly as Polish wheat. The heads. ears
and grains are very large. the grains In
many cases being twice as large as ordi-

The experiments made by the Depart

lions in few places show that the yield
is rather Disappointing The wheat has
been grown only experimentally in this
country. except in few places.

It's gotten to be no trick at all to raise
thirty thousand dollar "pinks' or fifty-thOu-
sand-dolar horses, or bilion-dollar-trusts-
but it still is the toughest proposition in the
world to raise anything better than thirty:

learn to feed hogs cabbages or puppies,
but they don't care a darn how they feed
their offspring, and still less themselves.
