rency Thomas P. Kane expresses the
opinion that the opposition 10 the CEN
trail bank idea is growing less. Mr..
Kane in speaking Of the central bank
said he had no doubt that eventually

~ from the national bankers He thinks
part of the opposition viii proceed from
those who fear the idea of Govern

time of Jackson. Mr.. Kane says it Is
not the idea TO establish such a bank.
Some opposition will also proceed from
those who do not want TO depart from

Recalls Scandal in British
Naval Circles.

LONDON. Sept. Examinations were
made today by the closest friends OF
Lord Tweedmouth. who died last night.
that the former power in English poll
tics suffered a partial mental eclipse
during the last few months of his life.
His death. at the age of sixty. is de-
clared to have resulted from this mental
railing, due TO political reverses and
worry over his impaired finances.
Less than two years ago Lord Tweed
mouth then first lord OF the admiralty,
was one Of the powerful figures in Eng
ana. AT that time, however. the pub
nc became aware Of correspondence be-
tween bin and Emperor William of
Germany regarding the British naval
program. which so incensed the people
mat he was deposed and made lord
fee.
IN this correspondence Lord Tweed
mouth is supposed to have cast refec-
tions on Sir John Fisher. then seslord of
he admiralty, whose enmity to Ger
many was well known
Lord Tweedmouth never recovered
from his loss Of public favor.

Woman in Chicken Yard.

September Is a good month to look
ready settled upon particular varie-
ty hint in that direction may be OF
some use. Unless a woman can afford
to keep plenty of help she should not
keep over fifty fowls. feel that I am
writing for the woman who takes care
Of her chickens herself, and to her
would say that if she has the room 1t
Is good plan to keep small flock of
two varieties-one for broilers or
fricassees and one for laying eggs, and
when 1t comes to the genuine bust
ness, then give me the Black Minor
cas-. The eggs are large and pure
white. The hens are almost perpetual
layers and do not make good moth
ers. The eggs will command the high
est fancy prices, and If your stock Is
pure you can sell the eggs for sittings
at prices according to the stock you
keep.
The Plymouth Rocks or the Wyan-
dottes are suitable breeds for broil-
ers or for home use. l think there is
more money in the selling of eggs to
private customers, or even in the mar
kets, than in broilers. There Is less
work and less worry. The latter fowl
is a good layer If she does not get too
fat, but when this occurs make a pot
pie Of her.

relative sense in that 1t indicates the

by the issuing company; or the use

while on other parts 1t may have but

fore obvious that the mere presence
Of this term in title does not neces-
sarily make the bond an absolutely

Hints on Hog Raising.

Salt buried few inches in the
ground in certain spots will attract
the hogs and confine them pretty close
ly to such places.
1t is natural for a hog to root, but
If you want to prevent him from do
Ing so a simple ring in the snout will
answer the purpose.
1t Is great mistake to mark hog
by mutilating his ears. Better use a
metal tag
Successful hog raisers will always
have clover or alfalfa pastures for
their animals.
Every hog pasture ought to have an
open shed on a high point Of ground
for shelter from the hot sun. Leave
all sides open SO the air can pass over
them.
Keep the pigs growing from the day
they are born until they go to the
slaughterlng pen.
The man who imaglnes that he can
produce fat and lean bacon in streaks
by feeding one week and starving the
next will be disappointed.

and weigh about IA ounces each, or
II ounces to the dozen. Goose eggs
weigh about 55 to CT ounces each, or
about pounds to the dozen-that Is,
more than three times as much as
hens eggs. The eggs Of wild birds are
said to be smaller than those Of the

ducks eggs are said to be, on an av-
erage, LOT to 2.17 inches In diameter;
domestic ducks eggs, 2.36 to 2.56
inches.

To Keep Shoes from Slipping.

One often wonders how some girls
walk, even climb mountains, in pumps
and silk stockings. 1t is not sensible
think to do, but where ankles are strong
1t may not be particularly harmful if one
can keep the pumps from slipping. One
girl, who is proud of her small feet and
never omits an opportunity to display
them, has told her secret FOR keeping
her pumps from slipping. She pastes
piece of black velvet at the back of each
pump. This must be smoothly done that
there is no wrinkle. Only narrow
strip need be used, though the girl i'll
question lined the entire back part of
her shoe. The same girl sews narrow
strips of soft silk the color of her stock
Ing inside the heel of her stockings just
at the line where the pump rests against
them. This makes the stockings last
twice as long, as low shoes and pumps
rub holes even though carefully worn.

A FLOATING SCHOOL,
Miss Harriman's Kindness to Consump-
tive School Children.

Through the philanthropy of Miss
Mary Hartman, eldest daughter of the
late r. IL. Hartman, the poor children
of Brooklyn who are afflicted with tu-
berculosis are able to keep up with their
classes In the public schools and be cured
at the same time. The ferry boa> Sus-
quehanna, which Miss Hartman loaned
TO the Brooklyn committee on the pre-
yention of tuberculosis during the sum-
mer as Il day camp, will be used as a
public school during the winter for the
little consumptives who are not allowed
by law to attend the regular schools.
The boat is moored at the foot of Column
bia street, Brooklyn, in the Erie basin.
The school board has fitted the SusQue
hanna with desks, blackboards, and all
the paraphernalia of a modern school.
In order to have a teacher who will be
sympathetic and not push the children
too hard when they are tired, the school
has been put in charge of man who has
had consumption, John Birdsell. Wealthy
Brooklyn women are providing milk and
eggs for the children during school hours.

Tho Apple Barrel.

It stood in the cellar low and dim,
Where the cobwebs swept and sway
Holding the store from bough and
limb
At the feet of autumn laid.
And oft, when the days were short
and drear
And the north wind shrieked and
roared,
We children sought In the corner here,
And drew on the toothsome hoard.
For thus through the long. long win
time
1t answered our every call
With wine of the summers golden
prime
Sealed by the hand Of fall.
The best there was of the earth and
air,
OF rain and sun and breeze,
Changed to a pippin sweet and rare
BY the art of the faithful trees.
A wonderful barrel was this, had we
It's message but rightly heard,
Filled with the tales Of wind and bee,
OF cricket and moth and bird;
Rife with the bliss of the fragrant
June
When skies were soft and blue;
Thronged with the dreams of a har-
vest moon
Ger fields drenched deep with dew.
Oh, homely barrel, I'd fain essay
Your marvellous skill again;
Take me back to the past, I pray,
AS willingly now as then
Back to the tender morns and ewes,
The noontides warm and still,
The f1eecy clouds and the spangled
leaves

Preserving Hints.

The first consideration is preserv-
ing kettle Of brass polished until lus-
trous and with no stain Of fruit.
This is the sort of vessel used by
the old-fashioned housewife and the
jellIes OF our grandmothers have never
been eQualed.
Porcelain kettles should be dis
carded as soon as they commence to
crack and tin, iron or pewter should
never be used.
The best jelly bag is a long one
made OF flannel, which Is made in a
point at the bottom.
This should never be squeezed
order to hasten the dropping or
discoloration Of the fruit will result.
In selecting fruit the greatest care
should be taken to see that 1t Is not
overripe.
Berries that have been picked more
than "a hours are too old to make
good Jelly and preserves.
A cheesecloth bag will be found
useful in straining the fruit through
the colander.

Hired Man and the Boss,

An exchange presents each Of the
two sides of the farm labor question
In this somewhat homely but forcible
manner:
He felt that ne was working too
hard for the pay received; he knew
better than the boss how the work
should be laid out: he caroused on
Sunday and was dead to the world
Monday he was jealous of the other
hired men-he got fired!
He had no regular hours; he
shifted teams from one man to anoth
er; he spent his time In town; he had
plenty Of spare room in his house. but
gave the hired man The best In the
hay loft; he grumbled about triHes-
his hired man quit"

threshing machines, the numerous

can be followed In June by rye, tur-

are secured and the SOW thistle
fought at the same time.
