An encyclical issued to the church de- plores the anti-religious attempts of the Portuguese republic-namely, the violent expulsion of the religious orders, the suppression or church festivals, the reli- sious oath, and of religious instruction of divorce. the arhitary dismissal of bishops and Inc whole law of sepera- tion.
 The Pope revlews the material and moral expressions contained in the law Which denies even common liberty to the church and to Catholic citizens. Such law does not mean separation, but spoi- ation of property and despotsm in spir- itual matters. The church has not only been despoiled of all the means which are indispensable for the maintenance of the clergy and other religions actile ties, but it has been forbidden even to possess such means in. future. for the law interferes with the freedom of siis- posing of property by testament.
 For those reasons the Pope condemns the lew of separation, declaring 1t void and invalid against the inviolable rights of the churci. He warmly praises the bishops and clergy of Portugal who have condemned the law and have declared their readiness to suffer for the church.

LEGAL SYSTEM OF
 ITALY IS QUEER
But Punishment Is Punish ment When It Is
 Meted Out

Rome. June 24-(SpecialD-Itsly has q peculiar legal system, but punishment is punishment in this land and a life sen tence is very close to one. Here Is case in point:
 After having served 4a years in prison several brigands have been released from convict settlement. Among them is Calabrian brigand chief, Antonio Gatto, who entered the profession when 1s because he had deserted from the army and wished to avoid arrest. Gatto sub sequently headed a famous band of ban dits who had their headquarters in the Monte Gargane mountains, 3465 feet in height Tear Foggia, and the seat of a historic pilgrimage to a sanctuary in memory of the apprition of St Michael to Archbishop Lawrence, in 491. Gatto's men subsided mainly by despoiling pill grims. For years they held out against all armed expeditions, but finally sur rendered to Major Bixio, who deceived them with the promise that they would suffer no further penalty than the full filment of military service. Gatto was sentenced to hard labor for life. Now, on the score of exceptionally good con- duct, he Is liberated and given slo0 to start life anew.

BEST BREED OF BABY CHICKS
Much Depends on What They Are In
tended Plymouth Rocks
Lead In United States.

In answer to query as to the best
breed of day-old incubator chickens
for the market, the Kansas Farmer
makes the following reply:
There is no data at hand whereby
one could determine which breed of
baby chicks sell the best. It would
all depend upon what the customer
wanted to do with the chicks; to raise
them for broilers or to keep them for
breeding purposes. If for broilers, the
the Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Or
pingtons and Rhode Island Reds are
all coed. Il wanted for breeding pur-
poses, the demand would call for a
great variety of breeds, according to
the individual preference of the pur-
chaser. In order to find out which
was the most popular fowl in the Unit
ed States, the American Poultry asso-
citation, some six years ago, promised
to publish an exclusive standard for
such breed. 1t sent to the secretaries
of all the principal poultry shows for
the number of fowls of each breed
that were exhibited at their shows.
From the reports received, the
Plymouth Rocks were decidedly
in the majority, and won their stand
ard. Similar reports were called for
the next year, eliminating the Ply
mouth Rocks, and the Wyandottes
were found to be the next popular
fowl to the Plymouth Rocks. The
next year the Leghorns won, and this
year tho Orpingtons came in ahead.
Therefore we find that the Plymouth
Rocks, Wyandottes. Leghorns and Or
pingtons in the order named, are the
most popular fowls in the United
States as determined by the greatest
number exhibited at poultry shows.
This might guide one as to which
breed Of baby chicks are most pop
ular, as naturally the preference for
the young chicks would be in about
the same proportion as the liking fol
the adult fowls.

IT is CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles mental be-
cause Of disfguration, physical be-
cause of pain. Think Of the pleasure
of a clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, so essen
tial to happiness and even success In
life, are often only a matter of little
thoughtful care in the selection Of
effective remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do SO much for
poor compilations, red, rough hands,
and dry, thin and falling hair, and cost
SO little, that it is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold everywhere, a
postal to "Cuticura," Dept. 81 L. Bos-
ton, will secure a liberal sample Of
each, with 32-page booklet on skin
and scalp treatment.

Probably no subject in poultry lore

To a fattening hog that is receiv-
ing plenty of buttermilk it is impos-
sible to feed too much corn.
The poultry must be brought in from

quainted with roosts and houses.
When the turkeys first begin to run
at the nostrils a treatment with
coal oil will often stop the disease.
The dishonest poultryman may palm
a dozen bad eggs of on the lady Of

the dishonest practice.
Turkeys need an open shed well
protected for roosting at night. It is
mistaken notion to think that tur-
keys are better of in the trees.
The meat Of yarded poultry is al
ways more tender than that of fowls
having free range, due to the extreme
muscular development Of the latter.

TRAP NEST IS ADVANTAGEOUS
Enables Poultryman TO Find Out Just
What Hens Are Profftable--Drones
Should Be Weeded Out.

For a number of years have been
in favor of trap nests in order to find
out what hens are the profitable ones
to keep, says a writer in Green's Fruit
Grower. On every farm where one
hundred hens are kept the probabili-
ties are that fifty of them will not
average more than thirty eggs each
year. Some Of the fifty will lay more,
but there are few that will not lay
at all, SO I have made this general
average on such basis.
The average cost Of feeding ten
for one year is 81. This means that
the drone should be weeded out. The
trap nest will do it. Here is a trap
nest that any farmer or farmers wife

SONS OF THE SANDS
Cruel and ImpIacable Tuaregs Of
TripoIi.
Native Desert Tribes Who Would Aid
Turks to Resist italian Conquest
Believed Descendants Of
Crusaders.

TripcN.-Should Italy seriously at
tempt the conquest of the interior Of
Tripoli an interesting situation will
arise in the event, as appears prob
able, Of the native Tuareg tribes COM
ing to the assistance Of the Turks.
They are believed to be descendants
Of the Crusaders, and although Mos
lens, their favorite ornament is the
cross, while many of their customs
and some words of their language.
such as angelus for angel and mesi
for God, are undoubtedly OF Christian
origin. Many are of the opinion, how
sver that they belong to the Berber
tribes, once inhabiting the whole coast
line OF North Africa, and that they
took possession Of the desert regions
in the hinterland of Tripoli when the
main body Of this people were driven
back to the Atlas mountains by the
immigrating Arabs, who swarmed over
the whole of North Africa in the
eleventh century.
The Berbers are of Semitic origin
and formerly professed the Christian
religion, but since the Arab conquest
they have refrigerated in every way.
and are now among the most bigoted
adherents Of Mohammedanism.
It is not improbable that many Of
the Crusaders may have remained in
Africa and made common cause with
the Christian tribes against the invad-
ing Arab, as some Of the expeditions
