Then Tosto broke from his companions
in the steerage and started for the up

standing with his son, Kermit.
HE has let them take away my

English. "Now he shall pay for it.
Sailors quickly mastered Tosti, car

orders put him in irons. Tosti, after

COttOn-Picking Machine.

A cotton picking machine has been
devised, on lines similar to the vacuum
process cleaning machines, by j. S.
Thurman. The vacuum-producing ap-
paratus, driven by gasoline engine,
IS mounted on a wide-wheel truck
which Is drawn about the cotton field
by mules. Each operator has 100 feet
OF hose with the picker suction-tip at
the end. 1t is claimed that each op-
orator can gather 700 pounds of seed
cotton per day Of ten hours at a total
cost OF from $2.45 to $50 per OPP
Grafton per day.

Advice to Smokers.

Here are a number Of don'ts for
smokers, some of which no doubt will
surprise a good many men: Don't
smoke directly after meal. There is
the most irresistible craving to smoke,
but it is wiser to wait half hour or
an hour. Don't smoke out Of doors In
a high wind or in cold, frosty wealth
err. In the former case 1t Is danger
GUS, and in the latter it cracks the lips
and prevents proper breathing. Don't
smoke with the cigar or pipe held at
the corner Of the mouth. This excites
the secretion of more saliva than when
the cigar or pipe is held straight in
front. And, above all, don't get In the
bad habit of expectorating frequent
ly when smoking. 1t is quite unneces-
sary and merely a habit and harmful.

In real life is due to the striking sue

who never grew up. In this instance
the arrested development attracted
much attention, dispatch to the New
York Times says.
couple Of months ago this young
woman, when the treatment began,
was to all intents and purposes a dull,
backward child hardly thirty-three
inches In height, with lanky, scanty,
dry hair, bulky forehead, broad
fiat nose and pale complexion. She
sat all day. even in summer, shivering
before an open fire. Her limbs, hands
and feet were cold and harsh to the
touch. The anterior gontalle or soft
spot on the head, which in baby be-
comes closed in the first few months of
life, could still be felt. She was I'M
interested and unobservant, and could
speak only three or four words. Her
teeth were the teeth of childhood. Her
appetite was very poor, and frequently
she took no more than half a pint Of
liquid food day. Treatment was be-
gun two months ago, twelve grains Of
thyroid extract being administered
each night
Her condition now, after two months
treatment, is as follows: In height
she has increased more than two and
one-half inches. Her skin, which was
harsh and dry, is now moist, warm
and natural. Her nose has taken on
more natural shape and her dull ex-
preston has been literally lost. Her
hair. which was scanty and dry, is
growing fast and has a more natural
appearance. She has cut several fresh
teeth, and her lack Of appetite, which
used to be a source Of worry, has been
replaced by constant hunger.
The most wonderful change, how.
ever, is her mental condition. She has
acquired most extraordinary loquac-
ity. 1t seems as If she had been lis.
tening and storing up words from
babyhood. She could not possibly have
learned her present relative vast vo
cabulary in the last few weeks. She
evidently knew the words before, but
was unable to reproduce them until the
thyroid extract stimulated her into &C
tivity and developed her hitherto latent
powers Of speech. The slight increase
in weight which has taken place in two
months shows what hunger her sys
tenn must have had for the hitherto
missing thyroid secretion.
If the ordinary individual takes thu
extract of thyroid, he rapidly losei
weight, since the slightest excess II
this peculiar substance causes a rapid
breaking down of the tissues Of thu
body. In this case, however, twelve
grains taken daily did not make al
excess, but only supplied the amount
that nature had been craving for years

Incubator Chicks.

Chicks must be kept clean either
with hens or in brooder. To clean
them every day Is not too often. The
heat from the brooder makes droppings
produce foul air, as do hens when
hrooding 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 Matching 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 1t provides the
gizzard with grit to grind food.

Care of the Young Horse,

Work with young horses intended for
next seasons work while you have time
this winter. Halter and stall them,
groom them daily and harness them
frequently, so that they become accus-
toned to your working with them. 1t
requires time for the young horse to
find out many things required of it in
regular work. If it is first taught the
feel of the halter and harness there
will be less for it to think about when
it is hitched up for work. A well brok-
en- horse is worth much more than one
poorly broken. In selling the horse
that is the first inquiry of the buyer.

Selecting a Horse,

A government horse buyer gives some
new pointers on picking out a good
roadster. He says a horse that moves
steadily and takes good, long strides
is good horse. Never buy a horse
that takes short, nervous steps or
which has mincing gait. Such horse
cannot stand hard work on the road
and is always hard on his rider or
driver. Cavalry horses In the crack
regiments are, as a rule, particularly
gated as to walking.

petrating Joke.

New Ulm, Mimi, June 13.-Held up.
beaten and robbed by three masked
bandits with drawn revolvers, and
not realizing that they were confront
ed by desperate robbers, Night Tele-
graph Operator W. H. Wilder and
Conductor E. A. Hutchinson had an
almost tragic experience early yester-
day morning.
Just before 2 o'clock three masked
men entered the depot, where the two
employees were at work, covered the
latter with revolvers and demanded
that they dig up all the money they
possessed, as well as that Of the COM
pany. The officials thought the men
were joking and paid no attention to
them at first. Finally, however, in
order to make the company employees
understand that they meant business
the bandits struck both victims over
the head with the butts of their re.
yolvers aud then went through their
pockets.
After this they pried open the safe
and secured $236.73, and, backing out
of the station, made their escape.
The police authorities and sheriff
were Immediately notified and the sur
rounding country was secured by six
officers, with the aid of automobiles
and switch engines, but no trace could
be found of the robbers.
