What's in McClure's.

The leading article in the Ap-
ril McClure's is the story of
How Mrs. Stowe Wrote Uncle
Toms Cabin, " told by her son
and her grandson. The latest
instalment of Great Cases of
Detective Burns" deals with an
onymous letters and their writ
ers. 'The Newark Factory Fire, !"
by Mary A. Hopkins, tells of the
outrageous conditions existing in
the factory that was burned last
November. The article on John
Brashear of Pittsburgh" by Ed
ward T. Brewster, gives the sto-
ry of the life of Brashear, and
tells of many of the extraordin.
arily delicate and complicated in
struments that are made in the
Brashear shop. "The New York
Cloak Makers Strike" by Edith
Wyatt, contains a complete ac-
count of the causes that resulted
in the great strike of last sum-
mer. The leading fiction feature
is 'The Last Carolan, a story
of heredity, by Kathleen Norris.

A Pleasant Occasion.

A very pleasant evening was
spent at the home of Mrs. Moses
Royer, where Elijah Keller and
Estella Michael were united in
marriage, Saturday evening a.,
March 18.
Fiftythree guests witnessed
the ceremony, at which Rev. B.
F. Sharp officiated. After con-
gratulations were extended, a
dainty and sumptuous lap supper
was served.
Many beautiful and useful gifts
were gratefully received by the
happy pair.
After supper the evening was
spent in social chats, music, etc.
Through a sly contrivance of
the bridesmaid the bride and
groom were enticed out on the
porch when an abundance of rice
was showered upon them.
At a late hour the gaests de-
parted with many pleasant men,
cries of the occasion, wishing the
newly-wed couple peace, pros
perity and happiness through
life. @**

in brick construction. 1t has proved
to be very durable. There is no rea-
son why a silo made from such ma
terial should not last for generations.
This will do away with the principal
objection of the Stave Silo-lack of
durability. Another objection to the
stave silo is that it blows down easily
when empty and also dries out badly.
None Of these objections applies to
the Iowa silo
Concrete is an excellent material for
silo building. About the only serious
difficulty is that expensive forms and
skilled labor must be used No forms
are required for the Iowa silO. ANY
mason familiar with brickwork can
put up one by following directions
Owing to the air space in the walls Of
the Iowa silO. there Is less freezing
than in Il single walled concrete silo.
A double walled concrete silo is NEST
effective in keeping out frost, but the
cost is so great as to prohibit its gen
eral use.
The material for making hollow tile
blocks is found all over the country.
They are comparatively light. so as to
require a minimum freight charge
when shipped. Many of the leading
tile manufacturers are arranging to
make these blocks especially for silo
construction. Others will do SO upon
demand
Directions for building these silos
have been put out in bulletin form and
may be obtained free by addressing
Bulletin Editor Ames, Ia, apd asking
for copy of bulletin 1T.

SOMETHING NEW IN SILoS.

Solution of Problem Found by Iowa
a Agricultural Experiment Station.
Cheaper than wood, as durable as
concrete-that is the essence of the
new Iowa sllO devised by the Iowa

the station set out to solve the siIo
problem. The result was a silo made
OF hollow tile blocks, hard burned.

ter. In no case was an unfavorable
report made. 1t was found that the
silage kept fully as well as in stave or
concrete silos. There was no more
freezing than in stave silos and less
than In single walled concrete silos.

tiles are made has been used for years

Illusions Of Life.

Life is like beautiful and winding
lane-on either side bright flowers and
beautiful butterflies and tempting
fruits. which we scarcely pause to adj
mire and to taste, so eager are we to
hasten to an opening which we mag
inc will be more beautiful still. But
by degrees as we advance the trees
grow bleak. the flowers and butterflies
fail. the fruits disappear. and we find
we have arrived-to reach desert
waste.-G. A. Sala.
