MY OLE STRAW HAT.

Tn gettin' offul anxious now
To wear my ole straw hat
What's bin hangin' in the haymow
Since the frost laid things out nat.
The sparrows built nest in 1t,
But don't keer fur that.
You may wear your royal diadems;
Gimme my ole straw hat.
Some sport in plugs that's two foot high
An think they're ris-ter-crats.
Let 'em what wants ter play the fool.
Gimme my ole straw hat.
Oh, yes. holes clear through the top,
She's got a ragged brim,
But I'll be burned If I'd swap
Fur one of stylish trim.
It occupies no leather case
Nor hangs on patent hook,
But jist remember high tone plugs
Oft kiver up crook.
Now shake the hayseed out of it,
Git rid of all the lice;
Be sure it's clear of sparrows
An bumblebees an mice.
Then take it to the waterin' trough
An douse it good an deep;
Then give it good rub an scrub
An make it clean an sweet.
You bet don't git baldhead,
With brain storms an all that.
let the air blow through my hair
Through the hole In my ole straw hat.

How to Blow Nose Scientifically.

Medical experts are calling the atten-
tion of the public to the Importance of
performing the nose blowing operation
in a scientific and hygienic manner.
First one nostril and then the other
should be blown without undue vio-
lence. Doctors state that the two ma
sal passages should never be closed at
the same time. If they are obstructed,
as in the case of cold, the back Of
the throat is filed with compressed
air, and this, together with the dis
charge and the microbes which it con-
tains, may be driven through the eu-
stachian tube into the middle ear and
lead to serious results. A great au-
thority on the subject used to forbid
his patients to blow their noses when
suffering from a cold. This course is
hardly one which will commend itself
to those In the habit of catching colds.
The best advice would seem to be that
when it is necessary to blow the nose
the blowing should be done gently.

How 10 Make Cheese straws.

To make cheese straws put two
ounces Of flour into basin, with a
good seasoning of salt and cayenne;
add to these two ounces of grated Par
mesan cheese. When these are mixed
together rub into them lightly two
ounces Of butter, then mix the whole
to stiff paste with the beaten yolk OF
an egg and little water If necessary.
Roll out the pastry till it is an eighth
Of an inch thick. Then cut it into
straws about an eighth of an inch wide
and three or four inches long. Lay
these on a baking tin (Which need not
be creased and bake them In slow
oven until they are delicate brown.
These straws require very gentle han
ding, as they break so easily.

FEATHERS AND EeesHELLs.

Certain chick feed companies do
double stunts at running in grit, corn,
dust and "leftovers." Grit bought at
So cents and sold at $2.25 is pretty
high. Corn makes yellowbacks. Dust
and s'leftovers'' kill chicks in their
tracks.
You should have a never clog spray
er for whitewashing your plant. Then
at housecleaning time when wife
says, won't you whitewash the eel
lar, John?' the job will move along
like merry bird song.
"And just think of it! I was de-
feated at the show by a woman" Say,
fool man. where were you brought up?
If this is your first defeat by fair fe-
male you must have just arrived from
the Isle of Man.
1t is stated that eagles soar to a
height Of 5000 feet, while crows make
their top notch 1000. They frequently
condescend to descend to offend by
snatching chickens off the ground
when Johnny and his gun are not
around
Mrs. Charlotte Gilman, the seciolo-
gist, declares that woman is mans
horse. We once heard of man who
married a mag" which, to say the
least, did not show very good horse
sense. That poultrymen are experts
at prize mating is shown by the fact
that they and their running mates are
not seen kicking over the traces in
divorce courts.
A York (Pa.) pullet laid as her first
egg a white globe six and quarter
inches around the middle, seven and
seyen-eighths inches around the long
way and weighing three and half
ounces, just twice the ordinary weight.
May her tribe increase.
The late poultry shows were very
popular outside the ranks of chicken
cranks, for which the public will
please accept our hearty thanks.
The best litter for chicks is clean,
dry wheat straw cut in short lengths
by the clover cutter Dusty haymow
chaff is bad scratching material.
The state legislatures have been busy
removing the fifty dollar fine for kill
ing the American eagle. It makes lit
tie difference in these parts, for eagles,
especially golden eagles, are scarce as
hens teeth.

LEGISLATORS, coMpENsATION.
(From Jersey city Journal.)

(From Jersey City Journal)
One of the propositions to be sub
mitted to popular vote at the special
election next September is a Consti-
tutional amendment providing for an
increase in the compensation of Sena-
tors and Assemblymen from $500 a
year to $1,000 with an added 1898 for
the President of the Senate and the
Speaker of theHouse.
In the old times, when the legisla-
tors went to Trenton on Mondays and
remained in session four or five days
having rooms at the hotels and Incl
dental expenses, it was evident that
$500 was insufficient. In addition to
this the Assemblymen had to run ev-
cry year and their necessary cleo
tion expenses made a large hole in
the $500, if they did not wipe it out.
Custom has abolished the long
weekly sessions and it is rarely that
Senators or Assemblymen need
room in hotel.
The Constitutional amendments to
be voted on include another that will
eliminate the annual election for As
semblymen. 1t provides that they
shall hold office two years and that
Senators shall hold office four years.
This will cut down the election expen
ses at least one-half for Assembly
men and one-third for the Senators.
Thus it is evident that if $500 was
enough in the past it is enough now.
There remains the question wheth-
er higher compensation will attract
more competent men, and that can be
decided only by experiment. 1t seems
doubtful if it will. The law now Sc
cures a fairly representative body of
legislators and a change in the
amount paid will be more than likly
to cause competition amoung those
to whom 81 LOCO will be the object in
seeking election.
In considering what should be
paid to legislators it may help to
know what is paid by other States.
Most of the States pay a per diem
salary, some being limited to GER
tain number of days and longer ses-
sions produce no increase in compen
sation. Some allow for extra ses-
sions, others do not, therefore in pre-
senting a list of the States it is ne
cessary for some of them to compute
the pay for an average session. The
population of the State bears no re-
1ation to the amount paid to legisla
tors, but it gives an idea of the abil-
ity of the State to meet the various
scales of prices. The following table
shows the population and compensa
ton for each State.

COAL AS FUEL.
II Was In Use as Far Back as the
Time of King Solomon.

in1e OF King Solomon.
The first mention Of coal in the an
mails of mankind occurs in the Bible,
Proverbs XVI, 81, as follows: "As
Goals are to burning Goals and wood to
fire, SO is contentious man to kindle
strife" This was written about 1915
B. c., at the time King Solomon came
into power. Part of his dominion was
Syria, and ancient coal mines are
worked in that country today. There
are several other references to coal in
the Bible, all of later date Tools
and cinders have been found near the
Roman wall, indicating that the Brit
ons were familiar with the use of coal
prior to the Roman invasion in "a B. G.
The first actual record Of coal
transaction is the receipt for twelve
cart loads of coal written by the good
abbot Of Peterborough, A. D. S52.
Years before the Christian era coal
was in common use in China. Anthra-
cite coal is powdered, mixed with wet
clay and rolled into balls These are
dried in the sun, and the poor use this
fuel in little hand furnaces precisely
as they did centuries ago. Marco Polo
speaks of seeing in 1875 "a kind of
black stone in Cathay that is used to
burn better than wood" Marco Polo's
countrymen refused to believe the.
travellers tale.
The earliest historic mention of coal
in the United States is by the French
Jesuit missionary father Hennepin,
who in his journal In 1879 speaks Of
traces of coal appearing on the banks
of the illinois river and makes the site
of "cole mine" on the James river,
near Richmond, the first mine opened
for the market. In 1866 anthracite
was discovered in the Wyoming valley
and a sample of the coal sent to Thorn
as and William Penn in London.-Car-
rington Phelps in Metropolitan Maga-
zine.

How Germany Deals With the waster

Germany has law that provides
that If it can be proved that man is
earning sufficient wage to support
those dependent on him, but that he is
dissipating that wage by vicious hab-
its, he can be declared a minor, and he
is then treated as a child. His en-
ployer is told that the wage must be
paid not to the man, but to guardian
appointed by the magistrate of the
district in which he lives, who uses it
for the support of the wife and chill
dren. In England man who could
not get his wage might refuse to work.
In Germany the police would see that
he did his work.-Progress.
