Faith Airless stood over the minia-
ture gas stove behind the screen in
her studio. She hummed to herself
as she turned over the fast-browning
mushrooms In the pan before her, and
kept a watchful eye on the steak
broiling so evenly beneath the fame
on the other side.
Suddenly her song stopped and the
gentle sizzling Of the juices and the
bubbling of the butter stopped with
1t. The gas had gone. She turned in
dismay to her little purse hanging on
a chair nearby. II was as she thought
there was not a quarter there for
the gas meter. She had nothing hut a
fve-dollar bill-nothing larger nor
smaller.
She looked about ~helplessly. and
then her yes fell on the half-cooked
food on the tiny table SO crowdedly

left her home back In the country
town her father and mother were
coming to visit her In her studio.

ALI at once an idea flashed through
her mind. She caught up the dainty
dotted swiss apron with its dainty
blue bows and ran across the hall,
holding 1t to one side. She felt con.
sious in this sort of domestic apron
whereas she was entirely at home in
the big enveloping apron in which
she worked at her easel all day.
Tmidly she shook the antique brass
knocker on the door across the hall.
Come in," called a deep masculine
voice.
Faith opened the door and looked

I do not make IA practise OF hatch

set one Just to humor her, says a
writer in the Poultry Monthly. The
last experience I had with a hen that
wanted to set in the breeding pen. Not
wanting her there l removed her to
another place and l penned her up,
but she got out and l gave her a chase
for about an hour . Finally l got her
fixed again, and after setting two days
found her running about the yards

the nest and found three eggs broken.
l washed the remaining ones and re-

her back to business. At the same

USELESS STONES FOR WALKS
Saves Lots Of Muddy Walking n
Rlds Farm Of Many Unslghtly
Rocks-Easy to Build.
Hy JOHN w. ANDREws.)

By JOHN ". ANDREWS)
We made a walk recently entirely
out Of rough stones. These rocks were
gathered out Of the field where they
were in the way. and thus two pur-
poses were served by their utiliza-
ton.
The method of building was as
simple as the material used. A trench
was dug along each side Of the walk
and stones put into 1t 80 that they
projected about an inch above the
surface Of the ground.
The earth was packed back around
them to keep them firm. Then the
space between was covered with
smaller stones, the middle Of the walk
being made higher. a very little. than
the edges.
These stones were beaten down with
a sledge SO that one could walk over
them without too much injury to shoe
leather, and the whole then covered
with sawdust and cinders.
This fills up the crevices. holds the
rocks steady until they settle into
place and makes the walk smooth
and even.
There Is almost always a need fol
more walks on a farm. Sometimes
this Is a very pressing need. A few
hours work may save a wonderful!
amount of mud wading.
Material for walks Is not hard tC
find. Beside the standard brick ant
concrete there are shells. rough stones
of all kinds. gravel from creek beds
cinders, sawdust and tanbark.
All these make good walks, al
though the latter ones require fire
Quent renewing.
Neither Is construction a hard Job
The main essentials are good sid
lines that will not be torn loose o
heaved out and that are straight ant
smooth. and some provision for drain
age.
The center of q walk should b
made higher In practically all cases
and where water Is likely to stand Of
one side means should be provided t
carry 1t of.
In the matter of. design. curves ar
recommended by the landscape gal
deners; but these curves should neve
be abrupt and eve without an al
parent reason.
In a barnyard and other place
where a walk could not be very wei

New York, Dec. 3.-The happiest

Rose Muller, 5 years old, who arrived
on the steamship Carpathia a week
ago. She travelled more than 1000
miles on a bed, suffering from rheu-
matism She can not walk.
The girl came here with her mother
and three small brothers. She was
promptly excluded by the Ellis Island
authorities, but her father who lives
in Chicago, hurried here and pleaded
against deportation. Finally, after he
had deposited a band of $1,000 as
guarantee that she would not become
a public charge, the inspectors relent-
ed and announced that she would be
released as soon as the papers in the
case were approved. process which
has taken several days.

Chicago Police Chief Orders Against
Patrolmen and Others.

Chicago, Dec. S.-Drastic action was
taken last night by Chief of Police
Steward against 81 patrolmen, one
lieutenant and one sergeant, whose
designations were asked for some time
ago. An order was issued by the chief
suspending the 80 men, the same to
take effect at once.
All the men have been on the force
more than 20 years, and are entitled
to a pension. Several of them are
crowding the sixty years mark.
Among them are Haymarket riot
heroes and other veterans of many
battles, and rich In "reminiscences.
The order of suspension was issued
as a result of the failure of some of
the men to take a physical examina-
ton, and the failure of those who did
take it to pass satisfactorily.
This action of Chief Steward has
been expected for some time. Antfci-
pating an order of suspension. several
policemen resigned within the last
month. Among them was Patro1man
Anton Klingen, who retired to look
after his real estate holdings, valued at
100000.

SANTA CLAUS VALUES.
st. Nicholas VIII Garry Bigger Pack
This Year Than Before.

Washington. Dec. s.-When Santa
Claus starts on his rounds Christmas
eve he will carry with him toys Of
greater value than he has heretofore.
This is indicated in report from uni
ted States Consul George. Nicholas lift.
in Nuremburg, Germany. who says that
purchases for this year are consider
ably larger than last.
In the first nine months of this year,
toys valued at $1,S54, 319 were shipped
from this district to the United States.
This is $246,1S6 greater than the ship
ments for the corresponding period last
year and only $50,058 less than the ship
ments for the entire year 1909. Toy
exports to America for the present
quarter probably will reach $3.50, 900,
making the total for the year some
thing over s., ,0o0 an increase Of more
than 15 per cent over 1909.
Mexicans are manifesting an increas-
ed interest in United States manufac-
tured toys, especially mechanical ones
according to Consul General Arnold
Shanklin in Mexico City. Until recent
ly mechanical toys were not seen in
Latin-America but now they are the
main feature of window displays and
attract great attention.
