A Henpecked Husband.

Philip Starcas, of Pennsylvania,
last week applied for warrant to
arrest his mother-in-law. His COM
plant was that she was causing him
to lose his hair He said he came to
New York State several weeks ago,
then his mOther-in-law came to live
with him, and she wants to induce
his wife to return to New York State.
My wife declared she would stick
to me as long as | had a hair in nv
head. Since then my mother-in-law
has been bewitching me. Every
thine she combs her hair she takes
the combings, does some pow-wow
ing over them, then burns them and
tells the ashes to make my hair fall
out. Every since she has done it nv
mar has been coming out in punches
and I'm afraid that I'll lose my hair
and my wife as we'll"
You have my sympathy" said
the Alderman, "but there is no law
in Pennsylvania that makes a good
tonic for falling hair"

Drummers Make a Good World.

They were standing in a group on
the street talking about first one
thing then another when a school
teacher said with emphasis:
ITS u blessing from O kind PrOvi-
dence that we are not all alike in our
beliefs. I'm a Presbyterian, but it
would be a calamity to the world if
everybody was OF that faith, and it
wouldn't be any better if they were
all Methodists, Baptists, or any
other denomination"
Eyes, and the same may be said of
the professions" continued the man.
Lille wouldn't be worth living if
every man was q lawyer, doctor,
or farmer. AS to school teachers, |
would step down and out at once if
the world contained only school
teachers"
Asked what he would think of a
world made up of all "drummers,
the professor replied: 'If we had to
have only one kind 1 would take
travelling men every time. They are
broad, big hearted; they let other
peoples business alone and scatter
more sunshine than anybody. Come
to think about it, believe q world
full OF 'drummers' as you say, would
be fine place to live"

Grand Time For Old Soldiers.

Wilmington is preparing to give
the Confederate veterans a grand
time at the reunion which is propos-
ed to be held there on the 2nd and
3rd OF August. That city has long
been noted for its hospitality and in
no other city is the memory OF the
confederate soldier more tenderly
cherished. While Asheyille, Greens
borO, Winston and Charlotte have
made our State reunions grand oc-
caslons, yet We confidently predict
that Wilmington will be fully equal
to the occasion and our reunion
there will not be surpassed by any
ever yet held in this State.-Chatham

The Oldest Trees On Earth.

An enormous age is attained by
some trees-nOtably the evergreen in
England. At Fountains Abbey,
Yorkshire, the evergreens were old
when the abbey was built, eight CEN
turtles ago. This is a redwood"
which is credited with many hundred
years. Boabob trees of Africa have
been computed to be more than
5000 years old and a deciduous
cypress at Chapultepec is considered
to be of a still greater age.

TEXAS is AWAKE.
Lone Star State Is Filling Up with
Men Who Are Doing Much
10 Boom IT,

I Texas is awake, Physically the
greatest state in the Union, she is
beginning to realize her potentiali-
ties and she proposes to make the
mast OF them
Once known as the land in which
the cattle king reigned supreme,
Texas is coming into her own as
state in which farming of all kinds
on irrigated and non-irrigated lands.
is practicable and profitable. She
has been able to demonstrate to the
world that within her almost limit
less confines there can be raised
fruits, strawberries, bananas. pine
apples and all kinds Of garden
truck.
incidentally she has OH and min
eral resources as well
Neither is the fact that the state
can raise beef and mutton enough to
| feed the country to be lost sight of.
But that is but Incidental TO the
| story. The interesting point about
Texas is that she has in the past
ten years made great forward strides
ana promises IN the next ten years
to go still further forward Her
population is increasing rapidly,
thanks 10 the generous and skillful
publicity her citizens have given her,
and to the manner in which those
who go there find opportunity to
become independent
An idea of Texas size and of the
varied crops raised is shown in the
following:
In the Panhandle" general farm
ing and stockraising.
In the Red river counties, fruit
grain and hay are the products.
In the Trinity and Brazos valley
farmers, gardeners and fruit ranch
es thrive. a
In the plains below the Trinity
and Brazos country, truck gardeners
divide the profits with those who
raise rice. figs and oranges and 9th
er citrous fruits.--St. Paul Pioneer

BONANZA INCOMES ARE
REWARD Of FOX FARMING
Experts Say the Black Fox Can BE
Bred in Confinement i'll the
Northern States.

Associated Press Special
Washington, March 25.--Visions
| of "A bonanza income are suggested
by reports of the almost fabulous
prices received for single pelts by
! breeders of pure black foxes. A bree-
der in Prince Edward Island receiv-
ed the record price of $4,000 for one
medium sized skin of exceptional
beauty and luster The average pri-
ces run from 5000 to $500 per pelt.
Twenty years of experience has de-
veloped fox raising on the island as
fixed and paying industry. In a
number of instances the proceeds
of the sale of pure black fox skin
has paid off farm mortgage.
Experts say that the black fox
can be bred in confinement in the
northern range of states and turnout
Canada.
The fox reaches full growth in
from s to months. The fur is at its
best in the months of December.
January and February, when the
animal is from two to three years
old
In the spring of 1910, Carl w.
Faux, of Carcass, Yukon territory,
captured a litter of black fox puppies
and the idea occurred to him of rails
ing those foxes for breeding purpos-

increases in applications for enlist

They base this prediction upon
the small percentage of applicants
who are accepted from among the
vast number applying. During the
last fiscal year, only "A per cent of
those applying were finally enlisted
in the military service. In So main
recruiting stations, 94,121 men APP
piled for enlistment, of which 49,
777 were rejected OF the 1914 ac-
cepted at the recruiting stations, q
3S7 were later rejected a the re-
cruiting depots. These figures do not
include the vast number, probably
several hundred thousand, it is esti-
mated, WHO were rejected without
examination by the recruiting Off
GERS at all the stations. These in
clude men of obvious physical de-
fects. men plainly under or over age
and others who bear the stamp of

is kept of these reflections.
