Yes. Isn't it q romRnic story.
And he was so poor, and yet 50
brave and hopeful. And now he
is the most famous of them all
With honors and money just pour

The man laughed.
/ told you / knew him q little
although this isn't the Office that
first appreciated his genius.
Would you be surprised to learn
that he has quite written him
self out-that he is tired and
faded. and harassed by the claims
upon him-by the importunate
demands upon his pen, and that
he is torn with fear lest his next
drama should show the effect of
his mental exhaustion and prove
a failure
The girl shook her head.
That doesn't seem possible, she
said. No doubt he has been
feted and fattered too much. It

Yes.
He looked at his watch again
and glanced at the volume in limp

the table.

Oh, yes.

Very well, indeed. I've never

laughed. This makes me trem-
BILE for the play itself. Dramatic
authors are proverbially untidy.
She looked across at him and
smiled.
That doesn't hold good with
managers. does it?

She had pleasant voice and
she read well.
Presently he checked her.

you go along ?
Of course.
Freely and frankly9
Yes.
Then / don't like your cast of
characters. You have too many

to nine. Those hackneyed lay
figures should be on the ash
heap.
Very well, said the, girl but
her voice trembled. I thought
they were necessary to develop
the comedy.
Never mind the comedy. But
if you insist upon it let it be
merely suggested. Now for the
scenes.
The girl read on, and the man
found her very pleasant to look
at.
Then she began upon the seem
cry. Presently he shook his
head.
You attempt LOO much in your
first act. Let the plot work it,
self out. Too many people are
trying to develop it. And ! can
see that the first act is short in
action. You'll have to change
all that.
The girl looked up.
II wanted to make it seem

MISCELLANEOUS
The First Lady of the Land

Washington, D. c., March 10
With the installation of Mrs. William
H. Taft as mistress of the White
House. Washington sees the be-
ginning of a social regime in which
the military will have the prestige
and the pretty girl will reign in SUI
preme glory
Mrs. Taft, distinguished in Cincin-
natl and Washington society as a
perfect hostess, is a woman of I'M
usual attachments. Her tastes are
literary and intellectual. She has
been an ideal companion for her big
Drained husband.
Mrs. Taft is a charming mother,
and loves pretty and talented girls.
Helen Taft, her only daughter, is
still at Bryn Mawr. and Washington
is already specializing on the date of
her coming-out party. Both Henry
Taft and Charles P. Taft have daugh-
ters named Louise, who will be seen
much at the White House. All are
we'll bred, clever wholesome girls.
Mrs. Taft has a number of charming
nieces, too.
Nor will the capital lose Alice
Roosevelt Longworth. Helen Taft
u nd Mrc Il nrfh C11 fron
chums. 1t was on the trip around
the world, headed by Secretary Taft,
that the presidents daughter and the
Cincinnati congressman came to an
agreement. Mrs. Longworth will be
seen much at the White House under
the new administration.
Military men and their wives see
return of gold lace and epaulets
and the music of the army and
Navy Forever" in the new admins
tration. During his service as sec
rotary of war and as civil governor
of the Philippines, the new presi-
dent won many warm personal
friends among the army contingent.
President Taft also has a wide
circle of personal friends running
through every branch of government
administration. The White House
entertainments will embrace a large
circle
Mrs. Taft, as mistress of the White
House, is eminently satisfactory to
Washington society. You may not
thinks so, but this is important.
Washington ladies are exacting, and
could make life disagreeable to
"first lady" who did not measure to
requirements. Invitations to Mrs.
Taft's functions have always been
priced, long before there was any
hint of her elevation to mistress OF
the White House.

heavy because of its thickness and
combination of length and fineness. It
is bright and lustrous and In good
specimen is Of even quality.
AS compared with the Spanish Merine,
the Rambouillet is considered better
mutton form, with more weight and
quality Of fleece and greater hardness.
Many of the American flocks were
started from German sources, some Of
the best types of the breed having
been developed in the northern part
of that country. The first importa-
lions were known as the French Meri-
nos, but the present name has been
generally adopted during the past
twenty years.
AS a mutton producer the breed
ranks fairly well, although not matur-
ing 50 quickly as some breeds and
producing a coarser mutton than some
others. Yet it natures fairly early and
produces a salable class of mutton.
probably superior to any other Of tho
Merino breeds. At the international
stock show the Rambouillet mutton
was priced at S. per hundred, live
weight, compared with $5.75 for the
Southdown.

Feeding the Calf.

The aim in calf feeding should al
ways be to prevent scours, and this
is one Of the things which should be
watched closely. This ailment In skim
milk calves is the result Of indigestion
brought on, as a rule, by overfeeding,
hut also by feeding skimmilk in poor
condition and from dirty pals. Every
feeder Of skimmilk to calves must SOON
er or later learn this lesson. He must
learn that II the calf has scours the
feeder is not doing his work right. In
the case Of scours reform your system
Of feeding instead Of purchasing the
many remedies advertised, and in
dairy farming one Of the important
qualifications is the learning not only
OF making but Of saving money.
There are numerous and most excel
lent home remedies for scours, and l
do not venture a recommendation. In
our experience of rearing several hum
dred pure bred calves we have not had
TO exceed a dozen cases Of scours and
these were in our early experience
One or two raw eggs broken into a
calf's mouth have cured such cases.

1t goes without saying that she was
well born, but none Of her immediate
ancestors was especially renowned,
Ida of st. Lambert being her great
great-grandam. Indeed, so far as can
be learned, the others left no records
from. which one could predicate the
wonderful producing ability she has
demonstrated. About all that can be
said is that her dam, Pogis Irene H.,
was less than twenty-three months old
when Jacoba was born, that her
grandam, Pogis Irene, was three years
old when Pogis. Irene II. was born and
that this grandam was heifer's first
calf. 1t would seem, therefore, that the
more or less widely disseminated opin.
ion that heifer's first calf is of in
feror quality has no foundation in fact
and that early breeding does not neces-
ariiy result in diminished size or i'm
paired constitution.

Points For the Standard

Oats, wheat bran, linseed meal, clio
yer hay and roots are the best foods
for breeding ewes.
No young animal will attain to as
good results Us the one literally fed.
This applies to lambs as we'll as other
animals
Sheep are dainty feeders. They will
not eat hay that other creatures have
mussed over. They refuse grain taken
from ratty crib.
An excellent plan tn handling sheep
is to provide well protected yards into
which they may be turned on fine
days and have a shed for the stormy,
blustery weather.
Put the unthrifty appearing ewes by
themselves and give a little extra feed
Perhaps they are suffering from the
greed Of the bosses in the flock and
are not getting a full ration.
