No Purchase Recorded.

There was a dealer who tried to sell
a horse to- the late Senator Daniel OF
Virginia. He exhibited the merits of
the horse, and said, This horse is a
reproduction of the horse hat General
Washington rode at the battle of
Trenton. 1t has the pedigree that will
show he descended from that horse
and looks like him in every particu-

Daniel, that l am inclined 10 believe

NOT ACCORDING TO PROGRAM
Practical Joker Meant to Astonish
His Wife, and Doubtless
He Did.

When the first shipment Of frozen
eggs arrived from Australia their ex-
IRENE hardness astonished the brok-
ers.
One man, calling at a brokers' office,
was amazed to see him taking aim at
the wall with an egg.
What the dickens are 0 att he
said.
But the broker let drive, the only
result being a slight dent in the wall.
The thing being explained, the man
took a couple Of the eggs, put them
in his pocket. and left to startle his
wife. Arriving home, hi waited TIL
the family was assembled for dinner,
and then banged an egg at the new
dado.
But the smile quickly faded from
his face. The egg had thawed.-Lon-

the corn belt for there is no de-
sire to interfere with the growing OF
our greatest agricultural staple IN
that broad section of the country
where corn has long been the pr1ncl-
pal standby of the farmer. The new
plan of the department of agricul-
ture-for of course that is the branch
of ourNgovernment machinery that has
charge of this new activity-is simply
in effect to make two blades of grass
grow where only n grew before.
Although all the world has been
gasping in establishment these many
years past at the bumper crops OF
corn this country turns O each year,
the experts of the government some
time since came to the conclusion
that great as was the national corn
yield it was not as big as it ought to
be. Furthermore, they thought they
foresaw a time when, with u rapidly
growing population, the corn crop
would not be any too big for our own
American appetite and, of course, if
that came to pass, we would lose more
OF less of our foreign trade, for a vast
quantity Of Yankee corn products now
find he'll way to dinner tables over
seas.
On the theory Of a stitch in time
the agricultural sharSs proceeded to
get busy over this impending prob
lem. First they set about increasing
the yield of corn per acre ard latterly
they have entered upon the even more
significant mission Of extending the
corn growing area. AS our readers
are aware most Of the corn crop has
been grown heretofore in the middle

KILLING OFF THE MOSQUITO
Much Has Been Done With Crude
Petroleum, and the Fish Expert
rnent Works Well.

According to those who have given
much time to the question of destroy
Ing the mosquito, considerable prog
ress has been made in that direction
In the last few years. Many Of the
breeding places have been wiped out
In New Jersey and Staten Island, but
unfortunately enough still remain to
give the insects plenty of chance to
multiply. Crude petroleum has been
used with good effect in places where
the drainage is bad. but this, OF
course, can bring only a temporary
cessation Of breeding.
The fish experiment is said to have
been used successfully in the Barba-
dos. All the swamps and ponds were
stocked some years ago with a spe.
cies o. Ash that feed on the larvae
OF the mosquito. These fishes multiply
rapidly and thrive in the West In
dian waters In a short time there
were millions of them In the swamps
and pponds, and It was observed that
mosquitoes were comparatively scarce
in the islands.
The success of this experiment led
to the stocking OF standing waters in
Jamaica year or two ago. and the
health authorities of that island re-
port considerable diminution OF fe-
yer as result Of the destruction of
the mosquito larvae.

For the I4ou.ekesp.r.

An excellent way of cleaning lamp
chimneys is to hold the glass over the
spout Of kettle of boiling water un-
til it becomes well steamed. then polish
with clean dry cloth. and the glass
will be beautifully bright.
To remove grease from a stove. try
this plan: Dip a cloth in SCOT and rub
this well over the greasy parts, then
apply the blacklead and the spots will
at once disappear.
When making boiled buildings of any
kind try putting a piece Of creased
paper over the top before the cloth
is put on. This renders the cloth
much easier to wash, and keeps the
pudding nice and firm
When steel knives are not in con-
slant use always wrap them In tissue
paper and lay them away. This quite
prevents them from rusting, and so
saves the bother of cleaning them
when they are required again.
When peeling emons for cooking
purposes be sure never to cut any Of
the white skin. as II has a bitter favor

About Pears.

The acid generally found in apples
is rare In pears, but, on the other hand,
the latter invariably contain more
sugar as well as more vegetable fibre,
and are. therefore, less digestible. The
softest and most juicy pears contain,
in muscilage, which, although nourish-
ing, very easily ferments in the stom-
ach and produces fiatulency. The
Family Doctor advises that hard pears
should always be eschewed by those in
feeble health. The astringent species
are constipating, while sweet and soft
pears are laxative and may be salu-
tary TO certain temperaments.

Don't Rub Your Eyes.

Rubbing the eyes on awakening is a
destructive habit; and although heal
thy persons, whose sight is moderately
used through the day, may not be
sensible of receiving any injury, those
whose occupations demand close APP
plication Of their visual organs for any
continued space Of time, will soon be
convinced, by painful experience, Of
the truth Of this remark.
Besides the daily injury thus done to
the eyes, it sometimes also happens
that hairs and other foreign matters
are forced into them, and this may
occasion inflammation. In every case
infiamed and weak eyes are in a great
measure attributed primarily to this
habit Should difficulty be experienced
in opening the eyes let them be mois-
