The new kind of wheat is very big

be high in starch and low in gluten,
and is extremely poor in quality. TIL

MINISTER'S AFFECTION
AL|EhATED EASILY
Probably He Looks at Money
Of Rich Widow.

Spring City, Penn, Aug. 15.-A pa
thetic domestic story was sprung up
On the public but the filing at West
chester of a $4,000 suit for the al,
legged alienation of a minister's effec,
tons. The plaintiff is Martha, the
wife of Rev. Maurice Samson, pastor
of the First Reformed Church of this
place, and she sues wealthy Mrs. Mary
E. Kelley, the sixty-twoyear-old wild
ow Of o. B. Kelley, the well-known
stove manufacturer.
Mrs. Samson alleges that the wild
ow has alienated the affections of her
husband, not for Mrs. Keeley's own
particular benefit, since there is a
great disparity between her age and
that of the young pastor, but for two
wealthy nieces, and because, as the
resentful wife AYERS, her husband
dotes on riches, and has often berated
her for not bringing to him any dowry
when they were welded without know
ing one another very well in July,
1897.
The couple have one child, Edna.

YOUR OWN FACE.
Do You Think You Would Recognize
1t on Another Person?

1t on Another Person?
How strange it is" said the philoso-
pher, that the person for whom you
care most on earth, the one you see
oftenest and who receives your most
constant attention is the one whose
countenance is least familiar to you"
who is that?" asked the visitor.
yourself" said the philosopher. at
Is fact that if people could be dupli-
Gated and could meet themselves in the
street very few would recognize them
selves. We look at ourselves many
times during the 800 days of the year.
We say our eyes are blue or whatever
color they may be, our hair brown, our
chin peaked, our forehead high. We
know every lineament of our face from
constant study and attention, yet when
we turn away from the mirror we can
not conjure up a picture of ourselves.
We know just how our friends and
even acquaintance look. In fancy we
can see them sitting so or standing so
and their varying expression under diff
ferent circumstances is clear to us,
even though we have not seen them
FOR years. But when 1t comes to our
selves we cannot even fill in the out
line Of the picture. We may laugh, we
may cry, we may frown. but we do
not know how we look while We are
doing it. Photographs do not help us.
We have never seen ourselves in the
flesh. Mirrors and pictures are poor
aids when we sit down and try to see
ourselves with the minds eye. That
is why people are so deeply interested
IN anybody who is said to resemble
them. Just say to a man, I know
somebody who looks for all the world
like YOU and he will never rest until
he sees that person. Then if the like
ness is really true he will own that up
to that time he had no conception Of
how he really looked

Where the Funds Went,

As an instance Of the happy go
lucky character Of the early darky
the following extract from the Albany
q. " city records may prove inter-
esting:
In 1926 the trustees of the African
Baptist church applied to the common
council for permission to circulate a
public subscription paper In aid of the
funds of the church. 1t was moved to
lay the petition on the table, pending
investigation, for the reason that the
principal part of the funds secured by
a previous subscription for the Afri-
can church had been used by the
trustees in treating themselves to hot
Suppers'"

WHEN FIRE BREAKS OUT.
Keep Cool and Remember and Follow
These instructions.

Keep Cool and Remember and Follow
These Instructions.
In case Of fire, If the burning
sprayed with solution of salt and
nitrate Of ammonia an incombustible
coating is formed. This is a prepara-
ton which can be made at home at a
tri6fng cost and should be kept on
hand. Dissolve twenty pounds of COM
mon salt and ten pounds of nitrate Of
ammonia in seven gallons Of water.
Pour this into quart bottles of thin
glass and FIRE grenades are at hand
ready for use. These bottles must be
tightly corked and sealed to prevent
evaporation. and in case of fire they
must be thrown near the flames, so as
to break and lberate the gas con-
tanned. At least two dozen of these
bottles should be ready for an emer-
gepcy.
In this connection it is well to re-
member that water on burning oil scat
tiers the flames, but that -four will ex-
tinguish It. Salt thrown upon a fire
if the chimney is burning will help to
deaden the blaze. II fire once gets
under Roadway and prompt exit be-
comes a necessity, a silk handkerchief
dipped in water and wrapped about
the mouth and nostrils will prevent
sufrocation from smoke; failing this, a
piece Of wet flannel will answer.
Should smoke fill the room, recall
your Rhysics-remember that smoke
goes first TO the top of the room and
last to the floor. Wrap a blanket or
wooden garment about you, with the
wet cloth over your face, drop on your
hands and knees and crawl to the wip-
dow. Bear in mind that there is no
more danger In getting down from a
three story window than from the first
floor if you keep firm hold of the
rope or ladder. Do not slide. but so
hand over hand.-New York Tribune.
