flower pots, which may be obtained in
any of the shops at cost of about 10
cents, says writer in the National

The Brooder-House

With the modern brooder house,
that is heated artificially, think quite
likely as many chicks can be raised
under artificial conditions as under
natural conditions, says a writer in
Baltimore American. My practice has
been for some years to hatch the
chicks in an incubator. and give them
to brooding hens if / happen to have
them, rather than to go to the trouble
and expense of running the brooder.

Detachable Hatpins

The solution of the problem as to
the length of the hatpin has finally
been found. An English jeweler has
devised a hatpin set, consisting of
three pins of varying lengths, and
eight heads, each of a different color
of mother-of-pearl or glass. so that all
sizes and shapes of hats can be suited.
The idea is splendid one, and one
can foresee its popularity.

posed of TO Eastern Man TO
stock Deer Park

Park Commissioner Graham yesterday
announced the sale Of twenty members Of
the Paramount park herd Of deer. fifteen
does and five bucks. The purchase was
made for the purpose OF stocking the park
at DuBOise, Pa, and by the man in whose
honor the town IL named The bunch Of
deer brought $500 net, as no cost was en-
tailed IN shipping. The separation of
twenty members OF the happy family stlll
leaves the deer park far from being ten
antless. Sixteen frisky little fawns were
added to the herd during the summer and
there are still a dozen or more of the older
members TO look after them and train
them. Two deer were sold earlier in the
season for 80 cash and one elk for $50
making an income from the animal park
Of $50 during the season, which more than
pays for all OF the cost of keeping the
whole zoo colony In food and comfort
able homes during the year.
There are still about dozen elk in the
Enclosure inhabited by them. and It is the
intention OF the park commissioners TO re-
duoe their number by more than one-half.
Il costs far more to keep the elk than it
does the deer as they eat about five times
as much, and require the strongest barriers
TO prevent them breaking out. The big
bull elk. which killed a couple OF the does
a short time ago, has been disposed Of.

Plaintiff Award of In
surance.

The hopes Of Mrs. Ida l.. Haas for a
verd ct in her $1,000 suit against the MI
tual Life Insurance company Of New York
to compel payment of policies carried by
her late husband went glimmering in
Judge Redick's division OF district court
Wednesday afternoon, when the court sus-
tained the insurance companys motion to
direct a verdict in its favor. This was the
third defeat for Mrs. Haas. Her attor,
neys said they would move for new
trial and appeal to the supreme court II
the motion was overruled
After hearing arguments for two days
Judge Redick directed the verdict on the
ground that the policies we're contracts
made In New York and under the law Of
that state policies are voided by lapses Of
payment and Haas had permitted his pol
icles to lapse.
When the case was tried the first time
in district court the insurance company 3
defense was that the policies had lapsed
a few months prior to Hass' death. A YER
dict for the company was directed. Appeal

body held the ruling an error under the
Iowa law. A new trial was ordered. This
time the company made the same defense
but relied upon the New York law, which
specifically provides that lapsed policies
are void. The arguments in the case
