The True Mechanic.

After man has worked in shops
for ten or fifteen years there is a great
desire for change. Some want to go
out on a farm, others think that the
invention of something that can be
patented will solve the problem. while
others want to own and run a shop
themselves. The latter is really the
true mechanic. but not necessarily the
man who will get out the most or even
the best work while working for
boss. says Charles Henry in the Work
ers' Magazine On the contrary, he
will often be considered the lazy man
by the foreman when the work is OF
an ever recurring character Let how
ever some diliiculty arise In connec-
tiol with a job or have some hard
proposition 10 meet and be will always

placing of a comma" said judge.
'When first started to practice law

faulty punctuation. He had not meant
to give some innocent young women
the slightest offense when he wrote a
story about two young men who went
with their girls to attend lecture and
after they left, the girls got drunk.

out of its right place did the work, as

The Best Food to Make Hens Lay

The extremely high prices that have
prevailed for eggs during the past few
years have emphasized more than ever
the need of some food to make hens lay
in cold weather The best is none too
good, especially when it can be obtained
at a moderate price. G H. Whyland of
Vacour, N. Y, expresses his ideas on the
subject in the following letter, He says:
