A Breach of Good Form.

There is a little east end girl, still
under six, who reaches the limit in the
matter of sensitiveness. Likewise she
has her points in respect to dead game
ness. She was taken about week ago
to spend few days with her aunt.
The little miss played around in front
of her aunt's place for awhile. Then
her aunt let playful young terrier
into the yard. saying to the child:
'9This is your little four footed cous-
In"
Five minutes later the aunt returned
to the front yard to call the kid into
the house. but she wasn't anywhere to
be seen. The fox terrier was playing
alone. There was a scrambling hunt
for the child and all kinds of alarm,
but the little girl didn't turn up. The
aunt hustled into town. The little girl
was home with her mother.
She had walked right to the car for
town as soon as the fox terrier pup
was presented to her.
"Why didn't you stay at aunty'sT'
her mother asked her in surprise.
"She introduced me to a dogr" re-
piled the naughty young person.-Cin-

Two extremes to be avoided by
woman who is furnishing a room, be
it chamber or formal reception, are
confusion of colors and monotony. If
there were any rule which might be
laid down homely houses would cease
to exist, but one can only give generaIi-
cations. Be it said, however. that
woman will find it more than worth
while to buy wall papers, upholstery
materials and the like at places where
the salesman's taste can be relied
upon. 1t is pity when spending mon
ey not to get the best results from it,
and this is possible only when one has
professional advice or unusual natural
taste.

couch and three side chairs are to be
done in silk and linen material,
striped in self colors, which vary from
brown to cream, the whole having a

So far the scheme is utterly lacking
in design or vividness and if continued
would give a most uninteresting room.
Relief and color will be introduced by
the use of printed linen, the design

very little green. The ground of the
linen is coffee color and has tiny self

the eye would be positively dazzled,
but it is to be used on a large chair
which is entirely upholstered, on a
cushion for a black oak bench and for
cushions for two wicker chairs
So is the brown furniture lightened,
and that the walls may not be somber
the linen will be employed as window
hangings, going straight to the stills,
finished at the top with short valances.
This room is an excellent example
Of combining plain effects with bold
patterns Striking as is the linen, the
coffee color ground binds" 1t to the
prevailing brown. so that all harmo-
nize and do not conflict. This is a
point to be remembered in all furnish
ing-that. while striking combinations
are desirable, there must be one color
which is dominant and to which all
others must conform.

SELECTING SEED CORN.
Better Run Risk of Frost Than Pick
the Ears Too EarIv

Better Run Risk of Frost Than Pick
the Ears Too Early.
The first step toward better seed
corn for next year must be taken in
the fall by selecting the seed ears
from the stalks in the held. The corn
should be allowed to mature well on
the stalk. By selecting the earliest
maturing ears and picking them from
the stalk as soon as the husks begin to
turn yellow, which is q common prac-
tice, earliness is secured at the expense
Of vitality. writes Professor Moore of
the University of Wisconsin in the
American Agriculturist.
A slight frost will not injure corn if
it is well matured, and it is better to
run the risk of frost than to pick the
ears too early. The latter part of the
growing season seems to improve the
vitality of the corn greatly.
Care should be taken in picking seed
to secure ears which are attached to
the stalk about three feet above the
ground. Those ears which grow either
very high or very low upon the stalk
should be rejected. as they are unde
sirable. having characteristics which
we do not desire For the same rea
son we should avoid selecting ears
with very short or long shanks or
from deformed stalks.
Go into the field after the husks on
the ears have turned yellow and Sc
lect the well formed ears from good
stalks. Put them in sacks or baskets
and bring them to the side of the field
and husk. 1t Is well to follow definite
rows in securing seed corn. otherwise
a large number of good ears are
missed After the corn is husked many
ears will be found imperfect and
should be discarded Only those ears
should be retained for curing for seed
that are of good form. Seed corn
should be put into the proper place for
curing the same day that it is taken
from the field.

The judgment of the Church in the

the perfection of which, under present

the Church's judgment is according to

be according to works. for the knowl-
edge then will be so great that faith
will no longer be at premium. The
great Mediator will accept of imper-

degradation, more and more will be
required of them until in the end they
will be perfected and absolute perfec-

Conscience Versus Art.

Shortly after Tennyson's poem "The
Vision of SIM appeared an eminent
mathematician sent the poet a letter
that ran like this:
Dear Sir-I find in a recent poem of
yours, entitled The Vision of Sin,
the following unwarranted statement:
Every moment dies a man, and every
moment one is born.' | need hardly
point out that this calculation, If cor
rect, would tend to keep the sum total
of the worlds population In a state of
perpetual equipoise, whereas it is an
established fact that the said popula-
tion is constantly on the increase. l
would therefore suggest that in the
next edition of this poem the erroneous
calculation to which | refer should be
corrected as follows: Every moment
dies man, and one and a sixteenth is
born may add that the exact fig
ures are 1.167, but something must. Of
course, be conceded to the laws of
rhythm"

be produced in fourteen weeks from
time Of sowing, winter months taking
a few weeks longer. To keep up
steady supply four small houses must
be devoted to them. These must have
adequate pipe heat to maintain the
temperature through the cold weather
and also to furnish bottom heat for
the plants. Raised benches with pipes
underneath answer both purposes well.
When sowing the seed use a good
open compost and place very lightly in
three inch pots, inserting one seed in
each pot and water in. Place the
whole in house having a temperature
of 20 to rs degrees night and cover
with paper to maintain the moisture.

four days. When seedlings are through
