THE CAPTAINS REMEDY.
oN~NN%O~O~

A young woman who recently made
a trip to Europe decided to consult the
captain of the ship as to the best pre-
ventive for seasickness. Having armed
herself with a letter Of introduction to
the officer, she waited until the ship
had cleared Sandy Hook, says a writer
in the Bohemian, and then approached
him. She described her fears, and beg
ged for a remedy.
'My dear lady," replied the captain,
with an amused smile, "you will not be
troubled with any illness if you will do
what I tell you. Most ladies confine
themselves to their staterooms, and
thereby incur the very thing they fear.
Now If you will stay on deck, get all
the fresh air you can, walk up and
down, take good physical care of your
self, and try not to think of trouble,
you will never be seasick."
The lady thanked him. She followed
the directions faithfully, and when the
ship ran into the tail end of a heavy
northwest gale, she never felt qualm.
She appeared regularly at meals, and
enjoyed herself thoroughly
AS the gale was abating, she be-
thought her that it was due the cap
tain that she should thank him for
his good advice, and approaching the
deck steward, entrusted him with a
message asking for an interview. In
. 4 or r6
that the captain was unable to grant
her an interview.
"Why not?" she questioned. "Why
won't he see me?"

the steward, ''but he's suffering with a
bit of seasickness, which as lasted
two days now, an he amt in shape to

DURUM WHEAT.
Grows Where Other Kinds Won't
Makes Lots Of Muscle.

There is a steadily increasing produc-
ton OF durum wheat in northern Mime
sofa and North Dakota and in the arid
or semi-arid sections of other states.
The big Touring mills have not as yet
adapted their machinery to it's proper
grinding, says the Minneapolis Tribune
They find it too rich in gluten and too
hard for their present instalment of
rollers The elevator men don't handle
it freely because it necessitates special
bins. But the exporters take is eagerly.
1t is sometimes called macaroni wheat
because It's main use up to this time
has been for the manufacture of maca-
roni. The French, however, who are
accounted the best cooks in the world,
have employed it quite extensively i'll
bread making, and it is asserted that
the bread made from it is most nutritious
as we'll as light and appetizing.
There is no reason why it should not
be. Gluten is muscle former. In 100
ounces of lean beefsteak there are eight
ounces of ordinary bread there are to
s ounces of muscle formers. in 100
ounces of potatoes 2 ounces, in 10 ounces
of milk 4, but in 100 ounces of maca-
roni or bread made from durum wheat
there are said to be from 10 to 20
ounces Of muscle forming material.
Admitting the food value of this va
riety, the temptation to the farmer whose
land is adapted to it to plant it is al
most irresistible. 1t is a plant that
stands drought much better than other
wheat plants. 1t is so hard and thrifty
that it is usually exempt from rust and
smut and bugs.
The average yield is high-often from,
50 to 100 per cent. greater than that nj
the old varieties of wheat grown in the
same district. 1t seems certain that
durum is destined to prove a blessing to
the farmers in sections where the rain
fall is deficient or unreliable. 1t makes
most nutritious feed for domestic ami
mails, upon which they will thrive and
attain a degree of health that will make
them command high prices either from
butchers or stock fanciers.

But when he wOoed she tossed her head

'Twould take me all my time.
He sat him down once more to think
How he had best begin;
Oh. happy thought! with pen and ink

On wings of love he quickly flew,
And gained his Minnie's side;
