tent merely to secure the best species,
but wherever possible he will go care
fully over the seed and pick out only
the largest specimens to be placed in
the ground. In this manner the pro-
duct is generally of a much higher
standard. 1t is difficult to carry out
this selective' scheme i'll the case of
corn and similar seeds which are made
use of In great quantities. In the case
of corn, however, the small kernels are
generally at the tip of the ears. and in
order to get rid OF these undesirable
pieces a corn-tipper has been invented.
The device seems to have been sug-
gested by the familiar pencil-sharpener.

cut off, leaving only the full-sized kerr

Utilizing Waste Timber.

The wood chemistry section of the
Forestry Bureau has been giving some
attention to the subject of production
of turpentine from yellow pine waste.
1t is stated that for the recovery Of
turpentine from waste wood the steam
distillation process is far superior to
destructive distillation, making a more
uniform crude turpentine. and usually a
higher grade refined product. The
wastage from the yellow pine cut each
year would yield as much turpentine as
the entire present annual output in
this country, with value of $4,000
600. At the present rate of cutting the
supply of long-leaf yellow pine in the
South will be practically exhausted in
twenty years, but that the methods of
exploitation now in use convert only
about half the tree into market pro
duct.

pleased the woman to come to me. She
waved me to chair, after seating her
self, without giving me her hand, for
which 1 was grateful, though hitherto she
had allowed me to take the tips of her
clammy fingers. Her lofty air and pat
ronizing smile showed that she partici-
pated in her precious sons belief with
regard to the heritage.

Now the 10Th was the very day he had
left Coneyford for London. Was London
not gay enough for him, that he MIST
go on to Monaco for amusement? One
thing was certain: Mrs. Yeames, to have
received telegram from him, must have
known his whereabouts, and could not
give me his address in London simply be-
cause he was at the other end OF Europe.
Why had she told me that lie? Because
she did not wish it to be known that
her son had gone to Monaco, lest it might
be inferred that he had gone there for

came to.
1t never entered my head that he had
got out of the country for prudential
reasons, and that the cause Of his preoip-
itate flight was that little paper pellet
which was lying quietly in my handy
drawer. There are things which escape
even the suspicion of a lawyer some
times.

Cotton Petticoats.

There is an unusual abundance of
embroidered petticoats in linens and
cottons this spring. A well-made, pref
tily embroidered cotton petticoat, hav-
ing its embroidery or chief color
matching it's costume with which it is
worn, is in far better taste than the
cheap silk skirt, and is much daintier
as it can be tubbed after every wear
ing or two, and be as fresh and at
tractive as ever.
Some of these come in stripes, some
in plaids. For example, charming
Scotch Bingham is in blue and white
and the dover ruffle, set on an umbrel
la fiounce of the plaid, is embroidered
in white.
Another is in pale pink and white
striped madras, with the ruffle EN-
bFoidered in pink.

took him to doctor, but his face
kept ON getting worse until it got so
bad that no one could look at him.
His whole face was one crust and
must have been very painful. He
scratched day and night until his face
was raw. Then I took him to all the
best specialists in skin diseases but
they could not do much for him. The
eczema got on his arms and legs and
we could not get nights sleep in
months. got set of Cuticura Rene
dies and he felt relieved the first time

Remedies a good trial and gradually
the eczema healed all up. He is now

1t was a mellow day for such a SER
mon. The year was fulfilling all of
the promises made in early spring. In
the woods there was blaze of red, the
ripe juices of autumn, and in the air
there was that melancholy sweetness
that makes a man think, that makes
him look upon his neighbor as his
brother. On bench not far from the
pulpit old Linn Jucklin sat, determined
to surrender himself to the influences
Of the sermon. During the week just
ended human nature had not been
overstrong in him He bad told one
was the truth that he was a liar, had
snapped horses with chicken ped
der and was glad now that he had
not succeeded In overtaking him aft
terward; he had trapped a few quails
out of season, but had sent the most
Of them to the sick-had done a few 9TH
er things not strictly in line, such as
hating for few moments at livery
stable to see two dogs fight; but now
as he sat ready to listen to the word
he knew that down in his heart he
hated no man.
The old minister arose and gave out
the hymn, militant verses written by
some ancient fighter, and then looked
with a scowl at the empty benches at
the rear end of the room. Old Dock
Hency cleared his throat and settled
himself down and Sister Buckwortf1,

this was to be an occasion for what
the rude sIangists called hot stuff. -
And it was. The preacher tiptoed in
his wrath against the world. Never
before had that broad boulevard lead.
Ing to destruction been so frightfully
crowded. 1t did not seem that there
was a possible show for anyone to be
saved. And it was not a figurative
hell that the preacher painted, hut a
great pit roaring with flames. Into
the house he so strongly brought the
smell of sulphur that a boy sneezed
and little girl, shuddering in fright
crept closer to her mother. Old Peter
Balch, shaver of notes and holder Of
mortgages on the homes of widows
cried out Amen and mule that hat

GOES FAR TO SOLVE PROBLEM.
Suitable and Pretty Costume for the
Very Young Lady.

Dresses for the younger members Of
the family are always rather prob
lem, for although their wearers are
quite as much alive to any fault in
taste as are their parents, yet these
garments have to bear the strain Of
tremendous wear and tear.
The new ball dress of the grown-up
sister has nothing to face but two
step. 1t would soon cease to be made
of tulle and chiffon If it had to under
go the excitements of hide-and-seek,
cat and mouse or blind mans buff. In
the same way the house dress that is
worn during domestic occupations,
such as arranging flowers, is not near
ly so liable to be spoilt as the school
frock whose owner is just at the age
when a single drop of ink is sufficient
to smudge the face, hands and gar
ments, and is also at the time of life
which, above all things, detests
aprons.
A very useful style for these diff
cult ages is the pinafore, now varied
by the kimono. 1t consists of loose
blouse with a low, sQuare-cut yoke
and loose sleeves. The square top, the
skirt and the sleeves are all edged
with pretty band of silk or velvet il
a darker shade of the material match
ing the waist band, and it is worn ovel
a blouse of white or some lighte
color. This gives an appearance o
brightness and smartness, and allow
the dress to be of dark and durable
color and material.
1t also has the advantage that oil
blouses which have worn under tn
arms can be worn with it. The pre-
test mode for the skirt is to have
arranged in fat pleats, stitched for
few inches below the waist. The full
ness on the top of the arms can
drawn into tucks arranged in just tn
same way.
