WORK OF HEN ACCELERATED
Electric Food Heater Invented to
Serve Warm Meals in Chicken
Yard at All Hours.

There are all sorts of devices to &C
celerate the barnyard hen to greater
activity In the matter of her chosen
profession Of laying eggs. Nearly ev-
cry chicken raiser has some indtvid-
Ia opinion on this subject, but there
are great many who adhere to the
notion that the lens do their best
work in this direction when they are
given warm feed. The preparation of
this is a matter of ome considerable
trouble, and for the sake Of conven-
fence many owners make a compro-
mise by giving the hens a warm meal
once a day. Now, then, If a warm
meal once a day is good for the chick
ems, a warm meal all day long should
be so much the better, and, acting on
this suggestion, an inventor has made
an electric food heater by which it
will be possible to serve warm meals
at all hours in the chicken yard. Cur
rent is conveyed to the device by
means Of wires connecting with the
household circuit. and this, passing in
to a small electric heater, keeps the
chicken food at a very desirable tenn
perature at all times. The invention
Is also OF value in the winter time
when the drinking fountains OF the
poultry yard freeze up In a short time.
This heater will keep the water in
proper condition at all times. The
amount Of current consumed is said to
be very small.

A Mennonite Custom.

When a young man reaches the mar.

church hold a meeting. They decide
If he is honest and reliable to buy him
a farm, usually an eighty. Into the
farm he puts his savings. and then
members OF the congregation raise
the rest Of the funds to pay for the
land.
This amount the young man must
pay back with a small rate Of interest.
Thus by example and material assist
ance they bind him by the strongest
bonds. that Of debtor to the church.
They know full well that nothing can
be lost, for the land is always worth
what it viii cost. After the young PEG

elders assist with advice and help.

Use Of Cabieways.

The use of cableways for a large
variety Of purposes is an interesting
development of modern engineering.
Such ways are employed on the Pana-
ma canal, the steel cables being sup
ported by lofty movable towers. The
present limit of span is more than
$500 feet, and the speed of the con.
veyors may exceed 1900 feet per min
ute. Such ways span gorges, valleys,
roads, railways and Instructions of
many kinds. The system is used for
building dams, by dumping in q
stream beneath; hauling logs from
booms by means of cables stretched
above the river; running blocks out
of quarries up inclined cableways;
dredging channels; piling lumber, steel
plates and beams on cars, and various
kinds of excavatiDg.

eyes Of the last generation. We do
not now believe hat theoretical train.
Ing, which develops a mans mind, de-
prives him of his practical usefulness;

Technical departments In colleges,
trade schools of the higher order, and
the contact of the prepared worker
with the unprepared have done a mis-
sionary work in giving work. practical
work, a dignity in the eyes Of the
worker and the scholastic man as
well. The number of men with col
lege degrees who are working In
shops, blowing fields, cutting timber.

lines, and the like. is a good indica-
ton that the practical departments Of
big universities do not make men
snobbish.

cannot be superintendent. master

some women. attack the present

approval. Not a good word is to be

Hats are imprudently absurd, skirts

dities. The hysterical note is struck.
So why argue?
Whether we argue or not, certain
things must be acknowledged. The
present fashions in some directions
have reached such perfection that to
condemn them is ridiculous. to ignore
them impossible So let us forget the
fact that our too comfortable contours
refuse brazenly to confine themselves
within the slim limits Of the present

unbiased eye. If not with entirely un.

TALK THROUGH A TELEPHONE
Strained, High-Pitched Voice Abso'
luteIy Not Needed In Carrying on
Conversation over Wire.

Most men-and women-use nor
nervous force in speaking through the
telephone than would be needed to
keep them strong and healthy for
years.
Nature knows no strain. True SCI
ence knows no strain. Therefore,. q
strained, high-pitched voice does not
carry over the telephone wire as we'll
as a low one. writes Annie Payson
Call, in Nerves and Common Sense.
Impatience, rudeness, indecision and
diffusement blur communication by
telephone ever more than they do
when one is face to face with the per-
son talking.
1t is as If the wire itself resented
these inhuman phases Of humanity
and spit back at the person who In
suited it by trying to transmit over 1t
such unintelligent bosh.
To a demanding woman, who fl
strained and tired herself. a wait OF
10 seconds seems 10 minutes. I have
heard such a woman ring the tele-
phone bell almost without ceasing Tor
Is minutes. l could hear her strain
AID anger reflected in the ringing of
the bell. When finally she got her
party" the strain in her high-pitched
voice made it impossible for her to be
clearly understood. Then she got an
CRY again because central" had not
given her a better connection" and
finally came away from the telephone
nearly in a state OF nervous collapse.
and insisted that the telephone would
finally end her life. l do not think
that she nee suspected that the
whole state of fatigue which had al
most brought an illness upon her was
absolutely and entirely her own fault.
