Any bookseller will tell you that

anteed to make you roar with laugh
ter. The author presents to the pub

OF adventures and incidents alternat-
Ing from grave to gay; descriptive

day. The book abounds in anecdotes,
humorous and otherwise; and it af-
fords a clearer view of the inside
mysteries Of show life than any ac-
count heretofore published. Old Dan

Men Who Guard the King.

The British Honorable Corps of
Gentlemen-at-Arms, the bo~dy-guard
of the King, has just celebrated the
four h%undredth anniversary of its
founding. It Is composed of
Lieutenant-Colone H. A. Fletcher,
clerk of the cheque and adjutant of
the body-guard, and Colonies Milford
and Spragge. The corps was formed
by Henry VIII. Immediately after his
accession. In the old days one of the
duties of its members was to accom-
pany the sovereign on the battlefield,
and there to form a ring around him
and to guard him with ba~ttle-axes.
Nowadays, when it is not the custom
for the sovereign to go in person to
war, the gentlemen-at-arms are called
upon to assume less onerous work.
For instance, they are required to
attend levees at St. James Palace,
and to keep clear the ways to the
royal presence. When there is a
court at Buckingham Palace they
attend there; and they are present at
Westminster when the King opens
Parliament.

How Old is Biddy?

English authorities hold that there
Is no certain test of age in fowls.
But they admit that, in general, the
spurs both of hens and cocks will dis
tinguish a t~wo-year-old bird.
There are exceptions, however, in
which really young birds develop old
looking spurs, while really second
year birds preserve the short, rounded
spurs of a cockerel.
The texture of the legs is a guide,
to some extent, and so are the deli
cacy and freshness of the skin of the
face and comb, but still an occasional
hen will preserve her youthful ap-
p%earance to a startling degree.
The skin of the body is a better
test, as it becomes coarser and dry
er-looking with age.
Formerly the wing feathers were
considered n absolute test as be-
tween a pullet and a hen, even after
the long practice of early breeding
had made the moulting of early pull
let's quite common.
An Austrian authority says that a
pullet will show r~ose-colored veins
on the surface of the skin, under the
wings.
There will also be long silky hairs
growing there. After a veal old
these hairs disappear, as also do the
veins, and the skin grows white and
veinless.
1t is more difficult to Judge the age
of water fowls than of other poultry.
partly from the absence of spurs,
partly from greater longevity, and
partly because the water keeps their
legs soft and fresh.
Ducks waddle more heavily as they
grow older, and after two or three
years they acquire a depression down
the breast.
An abdominal pouch of consider
able size indicates great age in geese.
Turkeys up to a year old are said
to have black feet, which grow pink
up to three years of age, when they
gradually turn gray and dull.
Age in pigeons is often told by the
color of the breast. In squads, the
flesh looks whitish as seen through
The skin, but becomes more and more
purplish as the bird grows older.

Tea Table

Tea table etiquette was somewhat
complicated in the days of that "hard-
ened and shameless tea drinker," DR..
Johnson, when many people thought
nothing of drinking ten or twelve
cups at a sitting. 1t was considered
proper for the cups and saucers of a
party of tea drinkers to be all passed
up to the hostess in one batch when
replenishment was considered neces-
sary, and in order that each person
might be sure of getting back the
right cup the teaspoons were num-
bered.
When the cups were passed up
those who did not require any more
were supposed to place the spoon in
the cup. This writer remembers a
very ancient dame teaching a small
boy to place his spoon in his cup af-
ter the first cup had been emptied.
He wondered for the reason. Now
he knows that tea was once very ex-
pensive and little boys were not ex-
pected to ask again.-London Chron-
icle.

PROF. FOSTER IS EXPELLED
Baptist Conference in Chicago
INDUCES in Kissing.
Ministers Who Attempt to Defend
Him Observation-Disclosures Stand
ing in the Church Not Affected.

Chicago, Ill.-Professor George
Burman Foster, of the University Of
Chicago, whose denial of the divinity
of Christ in a recent book has stirred
up much resentment, was dropped
from the Baptist Ministers Confer
ence of Chicago.
Kisses, yells and general confusion
made the meeting one of the storm
lest ave- held by churchmen in Chi
cago, and it was referred to by one
preacher as resembling a political
meeting in a rowdy ward. Preachers
who had been howled or Missed down
sat with flushed faces while the
chairman pounded for order.
The young son of Professor Foster
was present. "It's a shame and I'M
fart" he shouted, as he left the hall.
The insistincS of the Rev. DR.. A. G..
Professor Foster be dropped for a
time brought the fight around to HIM
self. The Rev. DR.. D. D. McLaurin
asked for a committee to investigate
DR.. Dixon's right to membership in
the conference. This motion was
Kissed down, and DIR. Dixon explained
that he had joined the Baptist Church
in New York City.
DR.. M. P. Boynton came In for a
Kissing when he said:
I'VE are not going at this matter
right. Foster is as good as Myers or
any one here and"
The Myers he referred to is the
Rev. DR.. Johnston Myers, one of the
chief assailants of Professor Foster.
Some of the ministers tried to check
the kissing, but DR.. Myers shouted:
ut is no worse to hiss than to have
those present denounced as DR.. Boyn-
ton is doing. The Kisses should not
be stopped unless DR.. Boynton is
stopped"
DR.. Myers attempted to introduce a
resolution to drop Professor Foster,
whereat he was assailed by the Rev.
DR.. A. H. Harnley.
This matter vas decided for good
and all last week." he shouted. "Dr.
Myers promised on his honor that If
he didn't get his resolution through
then he would not bring it up again.
Now he is doing exactly contrary to
his promise"
II deny the statement" responded
DR.. Myers coolly. II promised not to
reintroduce that particular motion be-
cause my motives had been ques-
toned. Specific charges were wanted,
and that is what 1 have here" :
Motions, counter-motions and a
parliamentary mix-up generally fol-
lowed. After four hours, however,
worn out by their exertions and emo
lions, the preachers adopted the reso-
luton dropping Professor Foster
from the conference. The conference
had not the power to expel him from
the church.

Soap Tree in Florida.

Side by side grow the Dap tree
and the tallow tree. The soap tree
yields a product from which is manu-
featured the purest article of soap
that is possible to be made. Indeed,
the pulp of the berry is a natural soap
and will make a lather almost like the
manufactured article. The soap berry
tree is now creating widespread inter-
est and the berries are being i'm
ported from Algiers and China.
1t will pay to plant the trees and
look after their cultivation. The
product of the tallow tree also enters
into the product of soap and the two
together make a nice combination,
and their cultivation should be looked
after by those interested in new in
dustries. Besides soap, the soap ber-
ries make a very fine oil, and when
the virtues of the tallow tree are fully
known it may also yield a fine and
profitable oil. The young man who
To- plants out a ten or twenty-acre
orchard of these trees may drop into

Incubator Chicks.

Chicks must be kept clean either
with hens or in a brooder. To clean
them every day is not too often. The
heat from the brooder makes drop
pings produce foul air, as do hens
when brooding chicks. Give no feed
until the clutch is at least thirty-six
hours old. They do not need it for
the yolk absorbed just before hatch
ing provides them until that age.
Leave them in the incubator or under
hens until ready to give the first feed,
which should be fine gravel or sand
on the bottom of the coop or brooder.
They will eat quite a lot of it, and it
provides the gizzard with grit to
grind food.

Lone Bandits Feat.

Fort Worth, Tex.-In true frontier
style a highwayman, described as
g~entlemanly in appearance, robbed
the branch banking house of the
Waggoner Bank and Trust Company.
in the heart of Fort Worth, of $500.
and, some assert, escaped in an auto
mobile.
The robbery was the most daring
attempted in Texas in years. Walter
e. King, the cashier, was alone in the
bank after closing time, finishing the
business of the day, when a man
walked in. AS the man approached
the window of the cashiers desk King
looked into the barrel of a revolver.
Make a move or a noise of any
kind and I'll kill you," vas the greet
ing Mr.. King received.
Selling a roll of bills, the man
backed out Of the door, covering King
with the revolver. King ran to the
telephone as he saw the man walking
down the street and mingling with
the crowds with an air of unconcern.
The police reached the scene five
minutes later, but the robber had dis
appeared.

dts entered the night office of the

1t PAYS to Caponize.


A capon bears the same relation tc
a rooster as a steer to a bull. and as
bull meat is not equal to steer meat.
SO are roosters not equal to capons.
When cockerels become capons
they to grow combs and wat
ties, do not crow and fight, grow
much faster and finer flesh and bring
nor money than ordinary chickens.
If a cock weighs ten pounds, a
capon will weigh fifteen, and bring
three to four times the price, one
hundred and twenty-five dollars often
being paid for 100 capons.
1t certainly pays to caponize sur
plus cockerels. A set of tools, with
full instructions for using, costs
$3.50, and only ordinary skill is re-
CURED.
For caponizing, cockerels must be
less than six weeks old and weigh a
pound or more.

Charged With EmbezzIement.
New York City.-Paul Endemanh,
the young teller of the Houston street
branch of the Jefferson Bank, whose
sudden disappearance oon after the
president of the bank, Herman Broe-
sci, had appointed him, as a reward
for years of apparently faithful serv-
ice, to head the new branch at Fifth
avenue and Fifteenth street, led to
the discovery that his accounts were
between $4,000 and $4,000 short,
was arrested in Brooklyn. He was
Immediately held for examination by
Magistrate Crane under $4,000 bail.
and, since he could not furnish 1t,
was locked up in the Tombs.
According to Detectives McConville
and Nelson, who made the arrest, and
the banks lawyer, Emanuel Esch-
wege, Endemann himself admitted
that he had appropriated $4,000.
and a hasty examination of his books
shows that the actual amount may
reach $4,000.
