1.-THE OLD SCRATCH"
How tho Evil Ono Came to Be Popu-
Iarly Known as "The Old Scratch"

One Of the many familiar names of
bis satanic majesty is "The Old
Scratch" 1t is undoubtedly due to the
TACT that scratching is SO disagreeable
that people thought it no worse than
the evil one. a scalp full OF dandruff
keeps one scratching all the time: not
pnly disagreeable but considered very
lnelegant in polite society-as it should
be-because one ought to keep the
scalp so clean that it would rot itch.
TO cure the scalp Of dandruff effective

1. o. MYHRE.

There should be no doubt as to
the election of L. 0. Myhre to
succeed himself as a member of
the board of county commissioners
from the third district.
His wide experience in affairs
of the county, together with
natural acumen and devotion to
the interests of the public, mark
him as a desirable servant to con-
tinue in Office.
His record as member of the
board is the highest tribute which
can be paid him and those most
familiar with his work are his
staunchest supporters.
He has earned the respect and
confidence of the voters and when
they vote to retain him in his
present Office they are not only
bestowing a just honor but are at
the same time furtheIing their
own interests and the interests of
the county in general. !:

The object of cow-testing associa-

period of at least a year, and to keep
an accurate record of the milk and

no Danish farmer would be without
the knowledge of his stock the asso-

Saved by His Wit.

'- Lord Justice Fitzgibbon. at the time
when he was one Of the justices OF ap-
peals Of Ireland. was holding assizes
in Tipperary county when man was
brought before him on Indictment for
murder. The case was proved that the
victim came to his death by being hit
with a stick in the hands of the de-
PENDANT. but the doctor testified that
he had what they called in medical
parlance paper skull"
The case looked dark for the prison
er. however, and the jury returned a
verdict of guilty. As the man was
brought before the court for sentence
1t was noticed that his lordship had his
black cap in his hand.
"Have you anything to say why SEN
tence should not be pronounced upon
you?' demanded Lord Fitzgibbon.
The man looked for a moment and
then said. NO. your lordship. l have
nothing to say. but l should like to
ask one question:

gibbon.
Il should like to know what a man
with a head like that was doing in

Payne Whitney and Miss Dorothy
Whitney at the country place of
Mrs. Thomas Hastings in Old West
bury, L. I.
Before the formal dancing, Mrs.
Harry Payne Whitney. in her fam
Gus Oriental costume, gave a more
than correct imitation of the Salome
dance. She was attired in semi
transparent trousers and was we'll
sprinkled with jewels. The dance
was we'll received, especially by the
gentlemen guests.
AT the close of the dinner, a
novelty not down on the program
was furnished, when an evergreen
tree on the lawn caught fire. The
place twinkled everywhere with
lanterns and one of these started
the trouble. The guests tried in
vain to put out the flames and one
young millionaire poured several
quarts-of champagne onto the blaz-

was conquered"

cows NEED MUCH WATER
Purity Of Supply Also an Important
Factor,

A COW, when in full flow Of milk, as
experiments show, consumes from l..
800 to 1000 pounds of water in a
month. By testing a herd of COWS, it
was shown that the average amount
drunk was 1850 pounds in one month.
An abundance of water, then, through
out the year, is of the first importance
to every dairyman. This is especially
true in hot weather. Besides abund-
ance, purity of water is important.
About lightweight parts of water are
contained in quart Of milk, and when
a cow is forced to drink quantities of
impure water, she is a menace to
health.

This record is so remarkable that it

Tho EnqIish Pheasant.

1t is claimed that the pheasant of
the English preserves can trace it's ped
igree directly to the brilliant bird of
the same species in Japan. About the
middle Of the nineteenth century a
few live pheasants were brought from
Japan and crossed with the common
species. The result of this was, it is
said. that new race of birds was in
troduced, and the beautiful pheasant,
with its iridescent plumage, was pro-
duced and naturalized as an English
bird.
