BUSINESS MEN FROM
over entire LAND
GATHER At DALLAS

Dallas, Tex, Jan. 22.-No more re-
preventative gathering of business
men has ever been held in the state
than that comprising the delegates to
the annual convention OF the National
Association of Retail Grocers, which
opened for a three days session to-
day. Visitors are here from the At
lantics to the Pacific. and It Is expect
ed that the total attendance during the
convention will reach 1900. Grocers
and butchers from many Texas cities
will attend In a body. those from Fort
Worth coming on a special train to-
morrow. The last day of the session
will be spent by the delegates in Fort
Worth. where they will be shown the
packing houses and other objects Of
Interest.
In addition to the regular business
sessions, several addresses will be de-
livered by prominent speakers on sub
jects of interest to grocers and mer-
chants. Numerous %luncheons,. recep-
tions and smokers and an elaborate
banquet have been arranged and The
visitors will be handsomely entertain
ed during their stay in Dallas. A pure
food show Is a feature.
II is likely that Boston will be the
winner In the contest for the next an
nual convention.

Eggs For Matching Should Be Kept Al

that it would settle 10 that side, 50 |
turn them either once day or once in
two days. Eggs have been known to
hatch well after being kept a month,
but il is best to set them while they
are fresh, rs they hatch better and the
chicks are much stronger.
Duck and goose eggs lose their Ter
tiitv sooner than hen eggs, and they
MUST be kept in a cool place, where
the temperature range rom 10 to IS
degrees: they should be- turned daily
and it is not wise l., lycp them longer

Laughter the Best Tonic.

Laughter is good. healthy, muscle.
making, lung-developing exercise, and
1t is as good for girls as boys. And
humor can be cultivated in a girls
mind without any abatement of the
dignity and modesty and charm Of
her womanhood. Not the unpleasant
and constant frivolity evidenced in
smart" speech or Cuickness of rep
artee, but the humor that looks at
the world with twinkle in the eye
and sees its abb . dities, its smallness
and its fun, says writer. 1t should
be part of every womans mental
equipment, for women are called up
on to bear so many of life's small
worries as well as its greater ones.
The bringing up Of children, the care
Of servants, and the many social du'
ties that become a burden, are all
made easy and possible to put up
with by the woman with an unfailins
sense of humor and Of the bright side
OF life.

The Change In Surgeons.

THE surgeon of the past was a
huge, coarse, redfaced brute, a very
terror" said a surgeon of the present.
"And no wonder. What type of man
but the brute type could cut off legs
or saw through the skull while the pa.
tient, perfectly conscious, howled and
wept? In the past surgery was barred
to gentle and refined men. Whatever
their interest in anatomy, in medicine
they Stunned surgery. They could not
endure to operate upon a conscious
subject. The advent of anaesthetica
caused the advent of new men into
surgery. Men of delicacy, of sympathy
of imagination-a higher type-took
the profession up. That is why surg
cry is continually advancing now
whereas in the past it stood dead
still"

When the Illuminating tests of the

servatory, observing the angle which
the bright spot made with the horizon,
had the happy thought of using II to
determine the height of the clouds.

observations cloud heights were de-

sometimes during weather that was
