yearning to reform somebody or something; to

may dislike office-holders may distrust his
neighbor, or be unable to get along with him, but
he gets over it and goes to work for that COM
munity's success, which means his own individual
success. In the country the farmer generally gets
his back up, and its stays up for a good long time
and meanwhile his community is the down
grade and he wonders what in the world is the
matter
The entomologists have been telling that TO
get rid of the boil weevil the cotton stalks in
infested territory should be cut down and burned
as soon as the cotton has been picked. From the
entomologists' point of view that is good advice,
and it may be necessary, but we wish some one
would make number Of careful experiments with
cutting the stalks down and to pieces with stalk
cutter and then turning them under as deeply as
possible. We confess to dislike for burning any
thing that be put back into the soil to enrich
it. And where it is not necessary to kill out the
weevil, there should no thought of burning any
kind of vegetable matter

of pound of almonds blanched, sliced
and dried Above the almonds are
placed sliced mushrooms, and over all

MAN LIVED TO AGE OF TAT.
Married at III and Sought Second
Spouse at 1870.

Married at III and Sought Second
Spouse at 1870.
The existence of Schles wig- Hol-
steiner who lived to the age OF 147 is
recorded by documentary evidence sup
piled By the Catholic priest of a char
liable foundation in a Schleswig town.
The evidence is contained in an in
scription on the back of an oil painting
discovered in the institution and rep
resenting the half figure Of an old man
of mummylike appearance.
The man was named Christen Jacob
son Drakenberg and is stated in the
inscription to have been born in No
vember, 1896 and to have died in 0c-
tober. 1772. The son of sea captain.
he had chiefly led a sailors life. He
took part in several wars and among
other adventures passed fifteen years
as slave among the pirates of Al
geria.
In October. 1877, it is recorded that
he married the widow Of a shipnaster
She died the following year, and ORA
kenberg seems subsequently to have
looked about for another spouse. for
at the age of 1870 we find him making
further matrimonial proposals. No-wo-
man. however. being during enough to
fall in with them Drakenberg resign
ed himself to single blessedness for the
remainder Of his days and is described
as having thenceforward lied a quiet
and retired life. Inquiries made By
the priest have confirmed the state
nents of the inscription.

Society Becoming 4WiId and WooIIy."
The wild west show is the latest fad
among society people. Buekskins and
fringes are no end becoming to stun
ming girls and matrons, and, thanks to
the fad for out of door exercise, there
are plenty of these nowadays. The

which rivals the frontier mans, and
the vogue of cross saddle riding is
