BEGINNER iN THE COUNTRY.
He Is Advised to Go Slow at First
TO Avoid a. Failure.

He Is Advised to Go Slow at First
TO Avoid Failure.
There is no better motto for the be.
ginner in amateur farming or poultry
raising than Go SLOW" says American
Homes and Gardens. The beginner in
these very engrossing pursuits is apt to
proceed with a speed that sometimes
approaches that of a railroad express
train. He begins by purchasing a farm.
This means that in most cases he pays
more for his land than it is worth to
its preceding owner. 1t means, prac-
tically, permanently locating himself In
new and untried region, to remove
from which would entail considerable
expense, and which may be an opera
ton he will have great difficulty in &C.
ccnplishing, especially if he must sell
his property before removing from it.
The next step will be the purchase OF
q quantity OF tools and material and
then, if he fancies poultry raising, a
start on as large a scale as his means
permit.
Then the troubles begin. The min
ute directions of the various books and
periodicals he has so eagerly studied
are found to be difficult of practical
application. Unforeseen circumstances
arise with disheartening rapidity. The
season is bad, his stock sickens and
dies, he has no idea what to do and no
place where, he can obtain the neces-
sary information. Like the gentleman
of scripture, his second state Is worse
than his first, and there is no health
In 1t. If he can he withdraws from
the operation, a ehastened and money
less man. II he can't, his soul becomes
consumed with hate, hate for his land.
his house, his fowls, his trees, his gar
den, his fruits, his vegetables. Too
late, he realizes that the more haste
the less speed.
The newcomer to the country must
be prepared to find everything different
from what one has been accustomed to
In the city. 1t would not be the coun-
try were Ii otherwise. One moves into
the country not only for greater space,
but for the complete change of life
which Is one of the inseparable charms
of country living. Yet the difference
between the two modes of life are apt
to he very great.

A Court of Reconciliation,

Roland ID. Molineux, the well-known
New Yorker who was acquitted of the
charge of murder in the first degree after
having occupied the death house at Sing
Sing, has written for Charities and the
Commons an article advocating new
kind of court, to be Known as the court
of rehabilitation. Mr.. Molineux asserts
that no human being, whatsoever his
crime, should be sentenced to a definite
term in prison. He points out that we
spend $1,000000,O0O a year in a fruit
less and farcical asntest with crime, or
twice as much as we spend on our works
of religion, charity and education. He
contends that this is due solely to the fact
that we sentence criminals to defin tie
punishment. Such Imprisonment, he ar
CUES, is worse than useless and itself a
crime, for the criminal in almost every
case is released more dangerous menace
than before his incarceration. 1t is adj
mitted that the criminal law aims to ben
eft society. Mr.. Molineux declares that
it fails in this. He adds that it should
aim to benefit the criminal, and in this il
could succeed.
His first proposition, then, is this That
a criminal court should determine but one
thing. the guilt or innocence of the de
PENDANT, and that If guilty, whether Of
murder or disorderly conduct, the one
and unvarying sentence should be Danish
ment from society. He should be COM
PEELED to remain apart from his fellow
men forever, or until restored TO citizen
ship by a court of rehabilitation. He
argues that since it required a judge and
jury to deprive man of liberty, only by
a judge and jury should he be restored

may wear it with the sure comfort
that a host of persons counted among
the best In the land are with her. Long
sleeves, wrinkled their entire length
and coming over the back of the hand,
are here, as it was predicted away
back last summer that they would be
this fall. They are, as rule, OF
gauze or lace, and match the yoke Of
the gown, while an upper sleeve more

bodice or its trimming. There are no

of such sleeves are so many as to defy

sleeves being mere caps or bands.

MAY SOLVE MURDER MYSTERY.
Discovery Made mt Buffalo Throws
Light on Indiana Crimes.

Through a mistake made at Buffalo.
y. y, in switching on to the wrong track
a car of horses bound for New York the
police made a discovery that may solve
three murder mysteries that have per-
picked northern Indiana. The attendant
was missing. the mattress ON which he
had slept was soaked with blood and
there were other evidences that murder
had been committed. The car had been
in charge of A. W. Murphy. whose body
was found few days ago near the Lake
Shore crossing in South Bend. 1t is now
believed that Murphy was killed by q
gang of robbers who had boarded the car.
There is evidence to show that Ralph
Kyle and Henry Ronk, whose bodies were
found at other points along the Lake
Shore track, were decoyed into the car
and murdered.
