An Open Civer,

Harold's father was in the habit of
giving 81 Sunday to the church.
This was put in a numbered envelope
in the collection plate and the amount
credited to him on the church books.
Mr. L. was away for the summer and
on his return Enclosed his arrears in
the envelope and intrusted it to Har-
old to put on the plate When the lit
tie boy came home from church he
said proudly. ~ put an awful lot of
money on the plate this morning

You got the envelope there all

Harold had been almost afraid to car
~ so much money.
"Oh. yes" he said. but took the
envelope off when l got there and just
put the money on the plate in my
hand. Nobody d have known how
much gave if I'd left it in the en-

MODERN BUSINESS.
The Big Jobs Demand Hustlers Who
Are Gentlemen.

A notable change has taken place In
American business methods within
the last decade. Increasingly men OF
large affairs are asking when young
man is recommended for big job, lis
he a gentleman?' This Is significant
In two ways. 1t means that the big
business men are themselves gentle
men and like to deal with men who
speak their own language and that
American business methods have
grown to be such that the gentleman
has an advantage.
There was time when man who
was q hustler could be a cad If he liked
and it did not hurt his chances much.
But that time has passed. The big
business men of today want young
men who are tactful, intelligent, indie
pendent. yet unassuming; who would
know how to talk to diplomat and
be at home in good club: who could
be trusted to behave kindly. honorably
and discreetly in any situation of life;
who. in short. have as their ideal the
old. never changing ideal Of the gen.
tleman. Not everybody can define 1t.
but everybody knowSxit at sight.
The gentleman. ilfs.short. can work
along the line of least resistance. and
that is why he is wanted ookkeeper.

EXPERIMENTING TICKS.
Cattle Pest May Be Eradicated by
Chance of Pasture.

ChanQc OF aStui
THE month of August lends itself
we'll TO the eradication of cattle fever
ticks where a pasture rotation plan is
used BY vacating pasture during
this month and keeping 1t vacant until
July / of next year it may be freed of
ticks and if no tick infested animals
are allowed to enter after July 1 the
nost,1re will remain free. The United
States department of agriculture ad-
yises farmers in the tick region to
fake advantage of this favorable time
so far as practicable.
Pastures from which live stock is
removed for sufficient time become
free of ticks by a process of starva-
tion. as the ticks cannot live to matu-
rity if they are unable to get upon ami
mails. The time required for all ticks
TO die after the stock has been re-
moved from infested fields and pas
lures varies considerably, depending on
climate. season and weather condi-
lions. Experience has shown, how
ever, that the period from Sept. to
July / is sufficient. and this appears to
be the most convenient time.
The advantage of vacating pasture
for the period named is twofold. Not
only is the pasture freed from ticks.
but it's disuse during that time will
probably cause less Inconvenience and
expense than at any other season, and
it will be benefited by the rest and
will have better growth of grass the
following summer. In some sections
where pastures are utilized throughout
the winter to vacate would probably
necessitate feeding the stock unless
the farmer is situated so that he can
keep his stock on one pasture while
another pasture is kept vacant. But it
Is also true that beginning with Sep
TENDER there will be a more abundant
supply of rough feed about a farm
which can be utilized. August is
most favorable month for making Il
start toward freeing premises of ticks
by the method suggested.
The animals should, of course. be
free of ticks when they are again
turned on the pasture in July. Where
the owner has small number of cat
tie greasing or spraying them with
Beaumont crude petroleum L.; a good
way to rid them of ticks. When the
number of cattle is large or when u
dipping vat is convenient it may be
more practicable to dip them.-Bulle-

MAN IN M0TORB0AT
RIDES N|GARA RAPIDS
Dimjnutive Craft Successfully
Shoots the Dangerous
Whirlpool.

Niagara Falls, N. Y.-Captain Klaus
Larsen. in his little motorboat, the
Eerro. Sunday afternoon made sue
cessful trip from the foot OF the cat
aract through the WHIRLPOOL Rapids
to within a mile of Lewiston, dis
lance of Az miles.
Despite the buffeting of the Whirl-
Pool Rapids, he went through safely,
but his boat was leaking badly at the
finish and throughout the trip.
Larsen had intended to start at $3.50
o'clock, but he was delayed by engine
trouble Besides the police threaten
ed TO interfere on the ground of at
tempted suicide. The Ferro swung
under the cantilever bridge, the en-
ejne running at top speed, and was
caught in the swift drift where the
river begins it's rush down to the
WHIRLPOOL Rapids. Larsen held to the
middle of the channel and in less
than three minutes had made the
great pool.
In the trip through the rapids the
little boat was lost from sight most
of the time, but at Great Wave 1t was
shot 20 feet out of the water. The
boat landed right and continued to
the pool.
Except the old Maid of the Mist,
sent through in 1864 to avoid seizure
f,arsens is the only engine propelled
craft to have gone through the rapids.
Peer Nissen, of Chicago, 1900, and
L. A. Percy, 1887 and 1901, went
through the rapids safely in barrels.
