Ego.

An ego IS a I.atiniZed l. All men
are created egos and endowed by their
Creator with certain inalienable some
things Of which neither statute, ukase,
edict, injunction. beggar, magnate
book agent nor promoter can deprive
them. He who steals my purse steals
trash. but ne who tilches from me my
ego takes that Of which he already
has enough and makes me not at all.
Women without votes have egos
and, strangely enough, would still
have them if they secured the votes:
hence egos are not a political issue.
An ego is what man IS when he
has nothing and is nothing else: that
Is to say. he is then first person Singh
lar and no particular gender.
An ego Is neither soul. lody, shirt

Halle speaks In his Notes of
Painters Life"
"A friend of mine. says Mr.. Halle,
tod me that be was in the studio Of
an artist when 1t was visited by a de-
tachment Of soldiers. The usual ques-
ton about the possession of arms was
asked and answered in the negative.
but one of the soldiers found a gun in
the corner Of the studio, and on his
evidence the owner was told that ha
must come out and be shot. My friend
was very fond Of him. SO he asked to
be allowed to see the gun. 1t was
given to him. and with the help Of a
pencil he passed his handkerchief a
few inches down the barrel and
brought 1t out brown with rust. He
pointed out that if the gun had been
used the inside Of the barrel must
have been black with powder and not
/ brown with rust, so the artist was
let off.
"My friend asked the artist WHY he
had not himself suggested this simple
test, and all the answer he got was:
oh. they bored me. l would rather
any day be shot than bored"

BLACKBERRY IS NEXT CROP
Affords Welcome Change After Appe-
lite Has Been Satisfied With
Other Small Fruits.

Toward the close of summer, when
the appetite has been satisfied with
Strawberries, raspberries, currants and
gooseberries, the blackberry affords
a welcome change. 1t fits in perfectly
between the other small fruits and the
early fall fruits. Whether served with
cream and powdered sugar. or stewed,
1t Is equally delicious. No farm gar
den should be without its clump Of
bushes Any out-of-the-way corner or
along the fences will serve If space
and cultivation cannot be given else

when cultivated, but they will do
much better than wild plants along
the fence rows. The Ward variety.

Rifle for Under Water Use.

When he is working in water infest-
ed by sharks and other sea monsters
likely to do him harm, the diver has
at present to rely for his safety on the
use of the knife or, failing that, ON q
quick return to the surface. Now
comes the invention of Captain Grobl,
q German diving Instructor, who has
constructed a rifle which can be fired
under water. and is designed for the
better arming of the diver. The most
remarkable thing about this is that 1t
fires, not bullets, but water, which is
propelled with such farce that it has
an extraordinary power Of penetration.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

There has been much said about the
lost flavor Of grape juice after 1t has
been boiled and bottled. The agricul-
tural bulletins tell us that it is unnec-
essary to boil grape juice In order to
preserve It. Heat to 1855 or to l76
Fahrenheit and the juice will not lose
its delicate flavor and aroma, but win
keep indefinitely. The bottles into
which the juice is put should be care
fully sterilized and as carefully scald-
ed. If cotton batting is tied over the
corks mold cannot enter. Another
thing to remember Is that the bottles
should be filled to oyerfiowing.
Rinse all dishes that have contained

water has tendency to cook the sub

FALSE HUNGER

There is, with some forms of stom-

meadows is considered the best ma
terial to use; this is put on about six
inches In thickness. The grass soon
packs down, keeping the soil cool and

been found better than mulching at
the New Jersey experiment station.
The plots that were irrigated bore
heavily. the fruit being large and OF

always found growing in fence cor.

seventy-one Years In a Shoe Shop.
Charles H. Wilson of Troy, N. Y,
occupies the unique position of having
been in business in one building for II
years; at least he will have completed
II years in the shoe business at 242-
S44 River street August IL next. This
record, 1t is believed, can be equaled
BY few If any shoe retailers in this
country. Mr. Wilson has also been in
business for himself for more than so
years Mr. Wilson is today just as
much in active business as he was al
most three-quarters of century ago,
when as a thirteen-year-old lad he en-
tered the employ of John Leonard
Williams of Troy To be exact, that
was August IL, 1910. Mr.. Williams
kept shoe store at 242-244 River
street in building which had been
erected in 1903. and so the building
now occupied by Mr.. Wilson for his
retail shoe business is one of the old
