Ani,ssai Circus.

!, The home of Miss Emma
Green on Erie street was the
scene of much merriment Sat-
urday evening when she enter
tanned twenty-five guests at a
very unique animal Circus
party" The rooms were artis-
tically decorated in Japanese
Lanterns, and as each guest
entered, the name of some wild
animal was pinned onto their
back. The names had to be
guessed from conversation with
each other and after they were
guessed, a description of the
animal had to be written. After
every one had guessed every
animal imaginable the hostess
invited the guests into the din
ming room which resembled q
menagerie. Fourteen cages &C.
cupied prominent places in the
room and each cage, contained
an article which represented
some wild animal. In one cage
was a large hunk of bologna
which proved to be Ground
Hog" Miss Sayde Briggs was
the best versed in animals and
she received the prize for be-
ing the best guesser. Another
amusement for the evenin g
was the writing of the nam es
of words with the word "bear"
in them. Miss Bess Bisbee.
succeeded in writing the most
words, and she also received a
prize. Pictures of animals were
used in finding partners for
supper, which was served in.
true circus style. Individual
trays were used and a two
delicious course supper was SER
we'd by the hostess assisted by
Mrs. Greene. 1t was a very late
hour when the merry crowd
dispersed after all had congrat-
ulated Miss Emma on the
originality of her party.

By far the larger part of the
apples grown in Iowa are of the
fall varieties. These do not
keep we'll in ordinary storage.
AS a result the market is glut-
ted during the fall, while when
winter comes apples must be
shipped in at high prices. For
several years the Horticultural
Section of the Iowa Expert
ment Station has been experi-
menting with different methods
of handling apples in cold stor-
age. These experiments have
shown that 1all apples when
handled properly can be kept
all winter in cold storage. TIE
cost of cold storage is not very
high, and by this means the
season for home grown apples
may be extended until we'll
along toward spring. The re-
suits {, fynariments along
this j 3: her with full d.
rectio'.s' for handling apples in
cold storage, are given in Bulle-
tin No. 1O8 of the Iowa Expert
ment Station. Copies may be
obtained by addressing Prof. C.
r. Curtiss, Director, Ames,
Iowa.

him toward the door. Again and agah he set his teeth.
 It was uncertainty that gnawed at him so. Was she i'll? Could she need him? Was she sorry for having left him? Would she be glad if he went for her and brought her back with him? He recalled the hysterical note in her behavior the day that she went away-how she had pleaded. only few moments before Jim came, never to be separated from him. Had she really cared for Jim and for the old life? Why had she never written? Was she ashamed? Was she sorry for what she had done? What could 1t mean? He threw his hands above his head with gesture of despair. A mo- ment later he passed out into the night.

 He was tinkering absentmindedly 1 with one of the wagons in the back lot, and the men were standing about idly | waiting for orders when Barker came | out of the main tent and called to him sharply:
 Hey. there, Jim! Whats your cx- cuse tonight?"
 Excuse for whatT Jim crossed slowly to Barker. ''The cock tent was started half an hour late. and the sideshow top ain't loaded yet''
 Your wagons is on the bum; that's what! No. 3S carries the cook tent. an the blacksmith has been tinkerin' with it all day. Ask him what shape it's in"
 "Y0u're always stallln'," was Bar ker's sullen complaint. "ITs the wag- ons or the blacksmlths or anything but the truth. know whats the matter, all right"
 What do you mean by that?' asked Jim sharply.
 T mean that all your times took up a-carryin' and a-fetchln' for that girl what calls you 'Muvver Jlm.'"
 What have you got to say about herr" Jim eyed him with a threaten ing look.
 "I got a-plenty." said Barker as he turned to snap his whip at the small boys who had stolen into the back lot to peek under the rear edge of the big top. She's been about as much good as . sick cat since she come back. You saw her act last night"
 "Yes," answered Jim doggedly.
 Wasn't it punk? She didn't show at all this afternoon; said she was sick. And me with all them people inside what knowed her waitin' to see herw
 Give her little time" Jim pleaded. ''SAe ain't rode for year."
 ''Tlmer' shouted Barker. How much does she want? She's been back a month. and Instead of bracin' up she's settin' worse. There's only one thing for me to do."
 1 whats that" asked Jim uneasily.
 I'm goil' to call her, and call her narl.''
 Look here, Barker and Jim squared bis shoulders as he looked steadily at the other man, ''you're boss here. and I takes orders from you, but If catches you abusln' Toll your beln' boss won't make no difference"
 You can't bluff mel" shouted Barker "I ain't bluiftn'. I'm only tellin' you" said Jim very quietly.
 Well, you tell her to get on to her job. If she don't, she quits: that's all." He hurried into the ring.
 Jim took one step to follow him, then stopped and gazed ct the ground with thoughtful eyes. He, too. had seen the change in Polly. He had tried to rouse her. It was no use. She had looked at him blankly. If she would only complain" he said to himself; If she would only get mad, anything. anything to wake her" But she did not complain. She went through Der daily routine very humbly and quietly. She sometimes wondered how Jim could talk so much about her work, but before she could answer the ques- ton her mind drifted back to ether days. 10 a garden and flowers. and Jim stole away unmissed and left her with folded hand and wide, staring eyes, gazing into the distance.
 The memory of these times made Jim helpless tonight. He had gone on hoping from day to day that Barker might not notice the ''let down" in her work, ard now the blow had fallen. Tow could he tell her?

No twe critics agree about the effect Of the
changes made in the Payne tariff bill by the
Senate Finance Committee, The committees
amendments are described by some as revision
UPWARD and by others rs revision downward. y"
The changes which some applaud are dismissed
by others as inconsequentiaL Discussion has
been confined TO Individual increases and re
ductions and no one is prepared 10 say def
nitely whether or not the Senate measure prom
ises more rational readiustment Of the Ding
lev schedules than does the House meas sure.
The reason for this confusion is evident The
report made by the Finance Committee is in
complete II lesves unsettled most of the ques-
rions which caused dispute in the House. II
develops no clear policy Of revision, and in the
absence Of any policy Il is impossible 10 tell
whether the Senate's aims are on the whole
progressive or reactionary The House leaders
had an intelligible programme. They made a
beginning nv taking of the duties on certain
classes of raw materials. In so doing they fol
lowed the line Of least resistance. If iron ore
hides oil coal. lumber and other raw products
were 10 be transferred TO the free list it would
be practicable 50 reduce the duties on manu-
factures into which these raw materials en-
tered. In that respect the Payne bill marked .
distinct development Of the protective policy. II
opened the way for gradual lowering of the
protective level as American industries should
outgrow the necessity of high protection The
imperfections cf the House bill were in its de
tails. II was essentially sound and progressive
iB theory.
The Senate Finance Committee has not vet
disclosed its fun programme, but the restora-
lion Of iron eTe to the dutiable list suggests
dissemination to accept the plans of the House

made dutiable again. there can he no reduction
