Dsrino BETTING.

During the close of the eighteenth
century the craze for gambling In Eng
land rose to an extreme. At certain
notorious clubs every incident was
made the subject of a wager, and thou
sands changed hands over the veriest
trife. A certain Mr.. Blake made him
self notorious by betting 1880 that a
man could live twelve hours under
water. He hired a daring fellow, and,
purchasing an old ship, they were
sunk together by way of settling the
bet. Neither ship nor man reappeared,
so Mr.. Blake had to pay up. The ia
nous Earl Of Carlisle once staked
$4,000 on a single card at faro. On
one occasion at Brooks, another noted
gambling club, kord Robert Spencer
lost the last shilling Of the fortune
which he had obtained from his broth
er, the Duke of Marlborough, and
General Fitzpatrick was in the same
condition. The twain combined, and,
borrowing a sum Of money, they open
ed a faro bank. They had run Of
luck, and Lord Spencer's share Of the
proceeds came to 100000. He pock-
eted this cash and never gambled
again.-London Taller.

FIG. III-ACCUMUhATION OF MANURE.
to the land as fast as formed When
it is allowed to decay In the barnyard
much of the nitrogen is lost and rains
FILLING upon It also wash out other ele
ments. The manure spreader is all
implement that should be found in
every barnyard The manure can be
loaded direct from the stables to the
spreader at almost all seasons of the
year and spread In an even layer upon
the field With a spreader the manure
can be made to cover twice as much
ground, so that the whole farm can be
gone over oftener.
While barnyard manure is undoubt-
eddy one Of the best means Of main
tanning fertility. 1t cannot always be
had. Many farmers, because of their
location near markets which demand
certain crops, find 1t more profitable to
supply those crops than to raise live
stock. Others prefer grain farming
because it is less combining. Such farm
ers must have some method Of main
tanning fertility which does not depend
primarily upon manure.
The Value Of Clover.
The best substitute for manure Is
clover. Glover supplies an abundance
of nitrogen the most rapidly used OF
The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1909-06-22

the three essential elements. Three
fourths of the air is made up Of nj
trogen. Glover and other leguminous
crops are able to get nitrogen from
this source by means Of bacteria which
live on their roots. These bacteria
change the nitrogen Of the air into nj
trates, a form in which 1t can be used
by the plants. Fully one-third Of the
nitrogen collected by the clover plant
is left in the soil in the roots and stub
BILE. One crop Of clover In four year
rotation will furnish nearly enough nj
trogen for the remaining three crops
In the rotation.
This is a much cheaper form Of OBJ
tanning nitrogen than by purchasing It
In commercial fertilizers at 10 to 10
cents pound 1t is much more profit
able to keep the nitrogen supply fairly
constant by the continued use of a ro-
tation with legumes than to add a
large amount at one time. Nitrogen In
the form of nitrates Is readily soluble,
and every rain washes some Of it out
of the soil. This is not true Of the
other essential elements to any marked
extent Too liberal supply of nitro
gen at one time tends also to promote
too rapid leaf growth at the expense
of fruit or grain.
The stubble and roots Of the clover,
together with the cornstalks and other
rubbish, will do great deal to keep
up the humus supply. In addition to

MAIDS OF HONOR.
Their Position In the Royal Household


Their Position In the Royal Household
of England.
Maids Of honor are chosen By the
queen herself from among the daugh-
tiers of peers, who If not themselves
connected with the royal household
are personal friends of her majesty.
A letter is always sent to the parents
of the young lady requesting that as
personal favor to the queen she may
be permitted to attend at court. AS
the position is undeniable and the sal
airy is f900 a year, the request is inva-
riably accepted, and then the newly
chosen maid receives from the lord
chamberlain the command for her first
wait"
The first thing. brought to the maid
Of honor is her badge. which is min
iature picture of the queen set In bril-
liants and suspended to ribbon. Just
before the dinner hour the maid Of
honor in waiting has to stand in the
corridor outside the queens private
apartments. She carries bouquet,
which on entering the dining room
she lays at the right hand Of the
queens plate.
The maid of honor sits at dinner
next to the gentleman on the queens
right This rule is relaxed when royal
guests are present. After dinner, I'M
less otherwise commanded, the maid
of honor retires to her own room,
whence, however, she is frequently
fetched to read, sing, play the piano or
take a hand at cards.-Cassers Satur-
day Journal.

c.I,.d his bluff.

A young woman of smart wit and
striking beauty presided at one OF thu
stalls at Paris charity bazaar
Among the small crowd which pressed
round the fair vender was young
man of much assurance, who gaze6
upon the girl with freedom and affect
ed to admire the various fancy arti
cles exposed for sale, but bought moth
ing.
what will you please to buyY ask
ed mademoiselle, with an exquisite
smile.
"Oh," replied the young dandy, with
languishing look, what most wish
to buy is unhappily not for SALE"
"Tell me what you wish?'' she re
sponded.
"Oh, no; dare not declare my wish
es."
Nevertheless let me know what you
wish to buy" persisted the fair sales
woman.
4Well, then, since you demand it,
should like a ringlet of your glossy
black hair
She manifested no embarrassment al
the bold request, but with pair OF
scissors Immediately clipped OF one OF
her beautiful locks and handed 1t to
the astonished youth, remarking that
the price was only 500 francs.
Her audacious admirer was thunder
struck with the demand, but dared not
demur, as by this time group had
collected and were listening to the
conversation. So he took the hair
paid over the money and left the hall
