Telephone Poultry Culture.

After reading of the progressive
poultry raisers Iowa says it is difficult
10 understand how the population of
the old Hawkeye State came to de
crease in the ten years just closed.
One enterprising poultry man in
Des Moines feeds his chickens by
long distance telephone.
He has fixed up feed box with a
trap bottom in it, and exactly at 4
O'Clock every day he presses a button
in his Office and the bottom drops
out of the box and feeds the chickens
miles away.
1t is barely possible that many of
1owa's lost farmers moved to Chica-
go and Omaha and are running their
Iowa farms by long-distance phone.
1t is much easier.-Tennessean.

FITTED HIS CASE PERFECTLY
Reporter, in an interview With Ed
son, Dazed by Inventors Talk,
Finds Way Out Of Difficulty.

Thomas A. Edison was explaining
to a reporter the tremendous part
played by NJ. Brandy, the new
French Academician, in the discov-
cry of wireless telegraphy.
The poor reporter, little bewil-
dered by all the talk about Hertzian
waves, transmitters, volts, ohms and
so forth, ventured on a question that
made Mr.. Edison smile.
'That question:" he said, ere.
minds me of the city father who
rose and said:
"Mr. Chairman, I'd like to know
for my constituents benefit, whether
this here proposed hydraulic pump
is to be run by steam or electric
ity.'"

DRUMMER KNEW HIS CUE
Customer VINO Used Polite Way Of
Diminishing a Too Confident
Salesman.

John McF. HOWE listened care
fully to his caller, an agent with
things to sell. He had nothing to
sell but the best. Nothing was ever
so good as the things he sold. Moth
ing better could be produced for
love or money. 1t was cinch.
"Did you ever hear the story Of
Seumas and Tammas asked
HOWE, somewhat irrelevantly. The
salesman hadn't. But he would be
pleased to hear it.
"Well," said HOWE, "'tis not
much of a story. The two, friends
from childhood over in the High
lands, met again in America and
forthwith proceeded to celebrate in
the fashion which to them seemed
proper-a fashion much in vogue
the world over.

full with the memories of the past.
'And did We remember my feyther?'
he asked his friend.

HUGE CRACKER APPETITE.

Londoners have the largest appe-
tite for crackers, or, as they call
them, biscuits, of any people in the
world. They eat Is carloads every
day, while New York takes ten car
loads and Paris five. AS for the total
daily consumption of the whole
world, the Bakers Weekly says it
would fill line of freight cars ex-
tending from New York to Balti-
more.
Even the far corners of the world
are demanding crackers. Abyssinia
wants seven carloads a day; Egypt
takes IS, Liberia four, Morocco 10,
Afghanistan eight, Ceylon seven and
even Manchuria wants II carloads
every "a hours.

TURN WORK INTO PLAY
Secret Of Keeping Young In Heart
and spIrlt--WorId 10 Great
Playground.

Remember how old man used
to be at fifty. He did not play. Re
member the old-type of grandmoth-
er, who was old at forty and who
was entitled to be ranked among
the oldest inhabitants at sixtyp She
was dear old creature, without
whose gentle counsels some Of us to-
day would be much nearer worthless
than we are. But she was old too
young, she had forgotten how to
play.
That is one Of the reasons why a
house without children is so profit
less an abode. Robbed of the natural
incentive to play, parents grow old
before their time. Their hearts dry
up; they think always soberly; it's
work, work, work. They miss the
mental and spiritual uplift that go
with a romp on the nursery floor or
a childish game under the parlor
lamp.
And the best part of it is that one
need not drop work in order to play.
Turn your work into play; that's
the secret. For exercise play tennis
or golf, don't get into a treadmill.
The most prosaic Of tasks becomes
a game if one looks at it from the
right angle. Work? There is no
such thing. The world is a great
playground, the games as various as
the players and the person who can
not see the uselessness of insisting
that work is work and nothing more
deserves to grow old, wither up and
blow away before his time.

AN ANECDOTE WITH A POINT
Colonel Roosevelt Tells Story to En-
phasixe His Advice to
Students.

Mr.. Roosevelt, during a recent
visit to Harvard advised the under
graduates to take an active interest
in politics.
"Be fair" he said at luncheon to
little group of Harvard men-'be
fair even TO the politician. Have a
debit side to your account with him,
but have credit side as well.
"And don't be content to stand
outside the fight and sheer. Pitch
in. The critical, sneering, do-noth-
ing man makes me think of CARLYLE.
Carlyle, in his Chelsea house,
had a sound-proof room. 1t was
built on the roof. Lighted from
above, the place was impervious to
sound and sight alike.
Gan old Scot from Craigenput-
took, on being shown the sound
proof room, chuckled and said sar-
castically:
Ny certes, this is fine. Here
We may write and study all the rest
of your life, and nobody be one bit

HISTORY OF CHAMPAGNE.

The champagne" which elevated
good King Wenceslaus at Reims in
the fourteenth century was not
"fzz." Champagne indeed was ia
nous for its wine as early as the
sixth century, according to the dubi-
ous Testament of st. Romi." But
the vineyard bought by Henry
VIII, that owned by Pope Leo x.
and the vintage establishment owned
by Henri Nv. did not produce spark
ling wines.
The method OF manufacturing
them was discovered by a monk Of
the Abbey of Hautvillers, who died
in 1878.
