As Roger Wayne passed along the
hotel corridor on his way down to
dinner a door on his right opened. A
girl Of 20 stepped into the corridor
and advanced straight to Rogers
side, holding out to him a black
box, six inches square and two inches
high.
VIII you do me a great favor?"
she asked In a clear. musical voice.
please throw this into the bay to-
night. And you are not to open It,
Will you do it-for me?"
There was slight pause before the
last two words. Roger took the box.
staring blankly at the girl. She was
we'll dressed. petite, with frank gray
eyes and masses Of dead-black hair.
But l do not understand"
DO you need to understand? Tell
me that you will do what ask"
"Of course l will do 1t, and
Thank you! Thank you'll"
She turned and re-entered the room
from which she had emerged.
Roger thrust the box into his
pocket and went slowly down the
stairs. He had arrived at Pine Bay
a summer resort on one of the great
lakes. but two hours before. Thus far
he had met no one at the hotel whom
he knew. What was the meaning of
the girls strange errand?
He had hardly finished his dinner
when she entered the dining room
With her was pretty blonde maiden
OF about her own age, a hatchet-faced
chaperon and a genial, middle-aged
man whom Roger was positive he
had seen before. From the greeting
that the girls received 1t was evident
that they were we'll known and social
favOrites.
When Roger had finished eating ne
left the house and sauntered leisurely
down to the shore. A wharf ran far
out into the bay, affording stopping
place for the steamers that touched
at the tiny village. The young man
stopped down and gathered his hands
full OF fiat stones that covered the
beach. AS he walked along the dock

Mares are bred In this pen or stall,
those for the trotter always being hop
pied, but rarely for the draft horse.
The dimensions given may be varied
and the part of stall back of wing
hinged if desired. However, the hinges
are not much of an advantage; the
stall Is. wide enough so a mares heels,
by sharp turn of her head, may be
turned into the wall.
Often boys, or timid people, bring
mares and the safe harbor of refuge
behind the wing is much appreciated.
1t will help stations patronage
where competition is sharp.
The floor of the entire space should
be covered with short stuff and chaff
and kept scrupulously clean, wet straw
and droppings being wheeled out after
each visit. This arrangement is ad-
mirable also for handling a bull with
safety. Up to this date this year
August 22-74 mares have been bred
to the brother, SO to the draft horse
and 62 cows to Red Poll bull without
injury to man or beast

chinch bug disease but It's appearance
on infected insects is not nearly as
conspicuous as the latter. To an or
binary observer 1t appears to be no
more than the mold which is common
ly present on damp bread a few days
old. 1t will live and propagate on
bread and is apparently just as harm
less to the higher animal life, but the
microscopic examination of an infect.
ed San Jose Scale reveals 1t to be fatal
to the latter.
Our experiments have been so con-
elusive In regard to the practicability
of checking the San Jose Scale with
this disease that we are now propagat-
ing it to an extent sufficient to enable
us to supply gratis all interested citi.
zens OF this state who may request 1t.
The conditions under which we shall
send it out are that the party request
Ing it shall first submit specimens Of
scale to us for Identification. If the
submitted specimens prove to be the
San Jose Scale we will send a small
package by mail No directions for
application other than those following
will be given unless especially re-
quested.
Directions-The fungus is grown on
a jelly-like material which is of amber
color in appearance. The color of the
fungus or disease Is white. This ma
terial may become more or less disar-
ranged in transit through the mail,
but its vitality will not be lessened.
Upon it's receipt the applicant should
paste small portions of 1t to his in.
tested trees. The jelly-like substance
will adhere nicely. The fungus will
gradually scatter from one tree to an.
other of its own accord, but will &C
complish better results If artificially
we'll scattered when first applied.

Might Call Later.

Ghosts and weird apparitions were
said to appear in the empty house,
and they were not an inducement to
possible tenants, so the agent had 1t
deliberately done up and decorated,
and by way of a tempting bait he had
some expensive gas fittings put up In
all the rooms.
The next week he heard that some
bold man had been after the house.
His heart leaped with hope and ex-
pectation, and he rushed of in frantic
excitement to the housekeeper OF the
haunted mansion.
This is splendid!" he gasped.
Someone has taken the house, hasn't
he?"
II don't know. sir, I'm sure. Per.
haps he'll come back for the house
He's taken all the gas fittings"

Bladder Trouble.
Mr.. c. B. Newhof, 10 Delaware

"Since my advanced age find that
I have been frequently troubled with
urinary ailments. The bladder seemed
irritated, and my physician said that
It was catarrh caused by \ protracted
cold which would be difficult to over
come on account Of my advanced years
I took Peruna, hardly daring to believe
that 1 would be helped. but found to
my relief that I soon began to mend.
The irritation gradually subsidized, and
the urinary difficulties passed away. I
