One Cure for Sarcasm.

Bunsen always was sarcastic.
One evening last week when he got
home his wife had a new hat to show
him. It was some hat Anybody
could have seen that 1t was the final
phrase in female headgear.
But Bunsen started to make re-
marks. He said it looked as if it had
been trimmed by q cross-eyed milliner
on an empty stomach. An he made
lot Of other disparaging remarks
Mrs. Bunsen was almost in tears
BUnsen had to go into the other room
to have a quiet laugh at her expense.
The next day he had forgotten all
about the hat
The day after that he was reminded
Of it. Mrs. Bensen handed him a bill
for retrimming that hat-$1S-34 It
came to.
Bunsen paid it without a murmur
and said the revised edition of the hat
was just exactly right. He is not
criticizing hats any more.

A HIT
What She Gained by Trying Again.

A failure at first makes US esteem
final success.
A family in Minnesota that now en-
joys Postum would never have known
how good 1t is II the mother had been
discouraged by the failure Of her
first attempt TO prepare It Her son
tells the story:
I'VE had never used Postum till last
spring when father brought home a
package one evening Just to try it. We
had heard from our neighbors, and IN
fact every one VINO used it, how well
they liked It
well, the next morning Mother
brewed it about five minutes, just as
she had been in the habit of doing
with coffee without paying special at
tention to the directions printed on
the package. It looked weak and
didn't have a very promising color, but
nevertheless father raised his cup
with an air Of exceptancy. Il certain
~ did give him a great surprise, but
I'm afraid it wasn't a very pleasant
one, for he put down bis cup with
look Of disgust
Mother wasn't discouraged though,
and next morning gave IT another trial,
letting It stand on the stove till boil
ing began and then letting It boil for
fifteen or twenty minutes, and this
time we were all so pleased with It
that We have used It ever since
Father was & confirmed dyspeptic
and cup Of coffee was to him Ike poi
son So he never drinks It any more,
but drinks Postum regularly He isn't
troubled with dyspepsia now and Is
actually growing fst and I'm sure

to one breed in the work Of grading
up the quality of our horses.
The difference of from IS to SO in
the service fee of the grade and the
pure bred stallion will mean a differ
ence of probably 500 or more in the
value of the offspring from the grade
sire and the pure bred sire at ma
turity. Besides this, there will be q
ready demand for the good colt from
the pure bred sire, while the colt from
the average grade or scrub sire-the
misft-will sell at sacrifice.
The stallion owner is in the business
fol- the money there is in it and if
the mare owner is content to patron
ize the grade or scrub sire, and thus
enable Tie stallion owner to do $500
worth of business during the season
on a $500 investment, as is often the
case, why should he invest $1,000 to
81 600 in a good, sound, pure bred
stallion to make similar profit?
Until the stallion law went into eff
feet hundreds of grade horses stood
for public service and were advertised
as pure bred horses. Sometimes this
deception was intentional and some
times the stallion owner himself was
deceived in his purchase.
The Kansas legislature passed what
is known as the stallion law requiring
every stallion standing for public
service to stand under his true colors,
both as regards breeding and condition
of soundness. It requires every stall
lion owner to procure a state license
which shows the horses condition of
soundness and his breeding, and to
keep this license posted in a conspic-
uous place where the stallion is kept.

ster. There is a crying demand at
long prices for the high classed horse,
especially the big, sound drafter with
finish, quality and good action. Each
year sees the margin of values be-
tween the high classed horse and the
ordinary horse growing wider and
wider, and in the future this margin
will continue to grow wider. The
man who would realize the largest
profits in the business is the one who
begins at once to breed a better class
of horses.
The very first step towards the i'm
provement of the general average of
our Kansas horses is a more careful
and thoughtful selection of sires, for
no marked improvement can be made
in our horses except by the use of
good, sound, pure bred sires. At pres
ent over sixty per cent of the stations
standing for public service in this
state are grades, mongrels and scrubs.
the use of which can only lower the
average of our horses.
1t is the intensified inheritance of
the pure bred which triumphs over
the diversified inheritance of the grade
or scrub and enables us to grade up
our stock.
If the greatest success in breeding
operations is to be attained only the
best mares must be used for breeding
purposes. Too often the unsuitable,
deformed, diseased, and unsound mare,
not fit for work or market, is used
for breeding purposes. This can re-
suit only in failure. so far as the i'm
provement of horses is concerned.
