with great stars hanging In the dark
blue sky and the dank odor Of rotting
vegetation from the nearby jungle.
From his seat In d bamboo reclining
chair Wclton stared unwinkingIy ut
tho blazing consultations. The punka
boy had fallen into exhausted slumber
on the mat. and the huge fan hung
motIonIess overhead.
Weiton could bear the low murmur
OF voices from the interior OF the
bungalow. and be knew that by slight
ly turning his head he could see the
pink glow OF light from the shaded
lamp and the reflection Of two faces
In the large mirror IN the corner.
The two forms leaned over the pi.
ano, the white fingers Of Marion Les
ter drawing soft harnonies from the
instrument. while Akerslle murmurcd
tcnderly IN her pretty ear
And II was because OF these two at
the plano that Welton was very mis-
erable and stared at the stars. He
knew that Mrs. Lester was noddlng
over her embroidery in some obscure
corner OF the room, and as for him
seIf--weIl. he seemed not to be In II
at all.
Colonel Lester was quartered at
Lucknow, and when II was learned
that Welton could not obtain the de-
sired leave Of absence to visit bis
sweetheart Mrf. Lester had good na-
turedIy undertaken the journey to
Welton's isolated station al Cola Chat.
The unexpected visit OF the two wo-
men bad thrown the little station into
blssful confusion Of preparation.
The depredations Of a man eating tiger
had furnished an lnexhaustible source
OF conversation and had been the occa-
sion efor many tentative trips into the
Jungle for several weeks before the nd
vent OF the visitors, but now all was
forgotten save the fact that there would
be new faces TO break the dead mo-
notony of the days-the fresh faces and
low toned voices OF refined English
women.
And then Akerslle had stepped In
and spoiled II all He had come up to
see Welton and to try pot shots at the
man eater but he had met Marion Les
ter. and In spite of the fact that he
was Welton's guest and that he knew
the relations existing between the two
he paid assiduous court to the girl.
Thus far she had repelled his ad.
vances with dIgnihed GOODNESS that
seemed to lnname him to greater ardor.
This evening, however, the gentleness
Of her manner toward him and her
careless treatment OF her lover had
driven the latter to sulky solitude In
the yeranda.

An Interesting Experiment.

That the earth revolves on its axis
can be proved by a simple experiment.
FIJI medium sized bowl nearly full
OF water and place 1t upon the door Of
q room that is not exposed to Jarring
from the street. Upon the surface OF
the water sprinkle q coating Of lycopo-
dium powder. Then take powdered
charcoal and draw straight black
line two inches long upon the coating.
The line should be north and south.
After this Is done lay upon the door
a stick 80 that It win be exactly paral-
lei with the charcoal line. Any sta
tionary object In the room, will an
swer as we'll, provided It Is parallel
with the line. II the bowl Is left un-
disturbed for several hours 1t viii be
seen that the black mark has turned
toward the parallel object and has
moved from east to west In direc-
ton opposite to the movement of the
earth on It's axis. This proves that
the earth In revolving has carried the
water with It, but the powder on the
surface has been left n little behind.

One Dimension Didn't Suit.

Everybody in Biddeford, Me, knows Alderman Walter Lane, of ward Eight. One of York county's venerable attor- neys went into his barber shop not long ago to get his head measured for a wig. On taking the dimensions of the lawyers head the barber ex- claimed: Why, how long your head Is, sir!"
 "Yes," replied the legal gentleman, i've lawyers must have long heads"
 The barber proceeded with his voca- ton, but at length exclaimed: Why, sir, your head is as thick as it is long?"

Plan on aIIenQlnS the SCdUo Qa1Ty convention in your state. It will do you whole lot of good.
 Do your COWS like to see you come around? If so, then they like the treatment they are getting.
 Cool cream immediately after separating, no matter what disposi- tion you intend to make of it.
 Make preparations to attend the Northfield convention in January If you are Minnesota dairyman.
 Don't neglect to keep the COWS clean and to strain the milk, just be- cause it is going to the creamery.
 If our COWS were as poor COWS as their owners are dairymen the an nual production per COW would be great deal lower than it is.
 It's a great deal easier to keep the COW up to her flow of milk by prop CT feeding than to bring her back again if the flow is allowed to drop off.
 Don't feed lot of high-priced corn to COWS and expect them to return a profit. Corn is not a milk making food, and should only be used in bal ancing ration.
 If yoa have ten cows and you know five of them are scrubs, sell them good ones There's more money in run hing the business that way.
 See that the food of the live stock Is palatable, for the better the animal likes the food the greater is the amount of saliva produced to assist in the utilization of that food. It may be that a correspondingly increased se- cretion occurs of the other juices pro | duced in the stomach.
 Silage is merely roughage in its most succulent form and needs the grain ration to produce the milk. The | silo pays and it is simply impossible l to find a farmer who has given one a fair test who would want to keep COWS without it's help. Plan to put one in on your farm this next season. Plant field of fodder corn this spring and provide the silo when the time comes Get three or four of your neighbors to club with you if possible to buy the necessary machinery. The cost of the silo itself is not as great as the cost of other buildings on the farm used for storing feed. When you have once used the silo you will never be with out one.
 The following advantages are claimed for the grain drill: It saves seed; it plants evenly and it gets the seed in good depth of soil where ger imitation is most certain. Experiments at the Illinois station show that five tc seven more bushels of oats per acre can be grown with the drill thar broadcasted. We speak of this be cause our readers grow more oats than any other small grain crop. II the sowing of winter wheat expert euced growers have long considered that broadcast sowing is an invitation to failure There are some exceeding ly favorable years when good crop: are grown in this way but it is safe to say that in these same years better crops would have been grown by tht use of the drill; while in poor year! the drill makes all the difference be tween success and failure.

 Experimental farms of one acre each in every section of four of the western agricultural states is the plan which has been proposed by Congressman 1 Scott of Kansas, chairman of the house committee on agriculture. His l proposition involves the establishment 1 of 100 experimental farms of one acre i each in every county in four western agricultural states to give the farmers a practical demonstration of the best methods of growing different kinds of crops. It is proposed that the lands for this purpose be furnished by the farmers themselves and that they do the work of cultivation under the di- ! rection of the experts of the depart ment of agriculture. No additional ap- propriation from congress will be re- i quired to test MT.

Easter Services.

Easter was damp and cheerless, but
the depressing weather had but little
effect upon the attendance at the church
es, as there were large congregations at
all the churches. Aside from the wealth
or. which as we have intimated, was far
removed from that which is supposed to
characterize Easter Day, the spirit of
this Day was everywhere manifest. The
churches were beautifully decorated, the
choirs rendered special music, and the
pastors preached on themes appropriate
TO the occasion, and in each church the
services were most joyous and bright,
in marked contrast to the weather. At
Christ Church the Rev. Geo. Fl. Parker
of Lennoxville, ofiiciated and his SER
mon gave very great pleasure. The
oifertory at this church amounted to a
few cents more than $40. At the Con-
eregational Church in the evening the
