Stories Less Than a Cent Apiece.

In the fifty-two issues of years vol
ume The Youths Companion prints
fully two hundred and fifty stories.
The subscription price of the paper is
but 81. rs, so that the stories cost less
than cent apiece, without reckoning
in all the rest of the contents anec-
dotes, humorous sketches, the doctors
weekly article, papers on popular topics
by famous men and women.
Although the two hundred and fifty
stories cost so little, they are not cheap
stories. In variety of scene, diversity
of incident, skill and truth in character
depicting, they cannot be excelled.
The announcement for 1911, beauti-
fully illustrated, giving more detailed
particulars of these stories and other
new features which greatly enlarge
the paper, will be sent to any address
free with sample copies of current
issues.

To an exceptional degree hog raisers
of the country have sustained fewer
losses from hog cholera or plague the

The situation is doubtless due to the

That the Plymouth Rock breed still
ranks as the most popular fowl in the
United States is shown in the report
of the secretary Of the American Poul-

states that in the poultry shows Of
that year there were 1900 entries Of
Plymouth Rocks. 10000 Wyandottes
and 5000 Leghorns, with Rhode Is
land Reds and Orpingtons ranking
next in order. 1t is likely that these
exhibit entries are fairly representa-
tive of the total number of these sew
eral varieties kept in the country.

The health Of the home during the
winter months does not depend half
so much on having competent physi-
clan engaged as 1t does in making the
house sweet and clean from cellar to
garret-particularly cellar-and letting
in just as much of the health giving
outside sunshine and fresh air as pos
sible. They are the worst competitors
the medical fraternity have yet. and
mighty few folks are awake to the
fact. There should be abundance Of
fresh air in all the sleeping rooms at
night and thorough airing out Of the
living rooms at least once a day.

with a seeming boldness and hardihood
which in reality were but the result
of the most extreme embarrassment,

marry Rose"
The proverbial bombshell, exploding
at Henry Carleton's feet, could hardly
have made the same havoc with his body
that Vaughan's few words managed
to create In his mind. And yet. to his
credit be 1t said, his habitual self-con-
troll now stood him in such stead that
after the one first uncomfortable glance
OF sheer surprise, he at once contrived
to conceal not only his am1azement, but
as well any other feeling that might
have been agitating his soul And in
another moment, indeed, he had even
successfully achieved q very fair in1i-
tation of a jocular smile Rose" he
echoed: my daughter Rose. Why.
you're joking with me. my dear fellow.
She's not 1S yet. She's child"
Vaughan, now that the worst was
over, did not seem to be properly dis
concerted at the reply. "Oh, know
she's quite young" he answered read
lily enough. "but that doesn't seem to
make any particular difference. We're
both prepared for a long engagement
I'm not well off, in the least it's
bound to be some time before could
dream of providing for her In any
proper way at all. But love her, Mr..
Carleton-as much, think, as any
man could-and she loves me, and We
think, after all, that's the main thing

how, / guess"
Henry Carleton had now perfectly
regained his self-possession. He gazed
at the young man with benevolence in
his eye Yes. yes." he assented, a
little dreamily love. of course; that's
the great essential. With that l thor
oughly agree And yet, while with me
Roses wishes are the first considera-

| consideration-still, as 1 understand
you to say yourself, 1t must equally be

If these be faults, is perhaps all the
mere likable for possessing them.
He came quickly forward I'm aw-
fully sorry, Mr.. Carleton" he began,
II know I'm late; but really 1 couldn't
help it."
There may have been something a
little LEES cordial than usual in the
manner in which Henry Carleton shook
the young mans proffered hand. Yet
his voice, when he answered, was po-
liteness itself. Early in life he had
made it his invariable rule to treat
every man who had once crossed the
TIN eshold of his office with complete
and unvarying courtesy, until he had
found out exactly what the visitors
business might be After that there
was, Of course, room for wider discre-
tion. And so now, Don't mention it"
he said; "a trife late, perhaps, but
never mind. And what may be able
to do for you, Mr.. Vaughan"
Once seated, Vaughan appeared to be
even more ill at ease than before. His
eyes were fixed on the floor. His hat
revolved aimlessly and sheepishly
enough between his nervous fingers.
why" he began, why, the fact is,
Mr.. Carleton-you see what l wanted
to tell you about-you see" and then
he came to a full and embarrassed
stop.
Henry Carleton, through a long and
varied experience, was nothing If not
a shrewd reader Off men. The same
awkward hesitation, the same nervous
ness, the same half-cringing express
sion; he had seen them all displayed
many times before by men who had
sat there in the inner office In the self
same seat which Vaughan was occu-
pying now. And nine times out of ten
it all meant but one thing. In the
brief pause analysis and deduction in
his mind were practically one. Vaug-
hans manner showed embarrassment.
Vaughan was would-be literary man.
All would be literary men, in greater
or less degree, were poor. Vaughan,
presuming on rather slight acquaint-
anceship, had come to borrow money.
The whole matter was painfully plain.
And then, even at the very instant
when Henry Carleton had sorrowfully,
but with philosophy, arrived at this
inevitable conclusion, Vaughan, draw

s749 Girls Boomers, 6 to 70 Years.

Boomers are exceedingly practical
garments, for they often can be made
to take the place of petticoats and they
allow freedom of action while they are
thoroughly comfortable. These can be
either plated or gathered at their up
per edges and they can be made from
variety of materials. They are ex-
cellent for wear beneath the short
skirts for outing occasions and great
many girls like them for bad weather
at all seasons of the year. while with
the coming of cold days they will be
found exceedingly comfortable and
satisfactory made from flannel or other
similar material. Just now 7pongee is
liked and silk Is much used, while for
the outing costume the bloomers are
usually made to match the skirt. The
leg portion are just full enough fer
comfort. without being over bulky, and
there are two bands that are closed at
the sides.

lips and the keen and scrutinizing eyes.
A noticeable man, in almost any COM
pany, he would have been, and Justly
so as well. Doing many things, he did
them all with skill. And still, in spite
of the activities in which he was ac-
tually engaged, his friends were won't
to talk of the many other things he
might have done-living his life over
for him In retrospect, as people will
and 1t was, significant of his many
sidedness to note the different views
which different people held of him.
Some said that the bar had been
robbed of a great lawyer, others that
the universities had lost a great
teacher and instructor of youth, others
still. like Mr.. Van Socum, that the
church alone should rightfully have
claimed his great talents No one, per-
haps, had ever suggested that the
stage had lost a great actor
And now, not satisfied with the active
benevolence that he had just displayed,
Henry Carleton was passively showing
the same praiseworthy spirit which
actuated his every deed and word.
His days work was done. 1t was ten
minutes after 5, and there seemed to
be no possible reason why he should
longer wait for the young man with
whom he had made en- appointment ut
5 o'clock sharp. Adding to the fact
that the young man was late, the

Henry Carleton snapped his watch
with a click, and had one hand already
outstretched to close the top of his
desk, when the clerk knocked and
opened the door far enough to an
nounce Mr.. Vaughan. Henry Carleton
nodded, sighed, again leaned back in
his chair. and relnquished the idea of
getting the five-thirty home.
A moment later Arthur Vaughan en-
tered the office with the rather breath

ly aware that to keep great financier
waiting for a quarter of an hour is an
offense not lightly to be condoned. In

of his thirty years, there was still

Her Head Itches.

Dear Miss Doom:
My head itches lately all the time.
1t worries me to death, because it
never itched before. I shampoo 1t once
a month with liquid green soap. Please
tell me what to do. WORRIED.
Procure a fine-tooth comb and comb
every lock of your hair thoroughly.
I imagine that very shortly the cause,
one might say few of the causes, OF
the itching will appear. Then apply to
the scalp a goodly portion of tincture
of larkspur seed, rubbing it in well.
Apply more the following night, and
the third day shampoo the hair thor
oughly.
Perhaps there is something the mat
ter with your scalp. In that case I
would advise you to consult a physi-
clan or a hair specialist.
