Ruskin as a Grocer.

Ruskin was once a grocer. In 1874 he opened shop in Paddington street, Noting Hill, in order, as he announced, "to supply the poor with pure tea in packets as small as they chose to buy, without making a profit on the subdivision, large orders being, of course, equally acceptable from anybody who cares to promote honest dealing" The shop did not attract. Ruskin complained in Tors Clavigera that "the poor only like to buy their tea where it is brilliantly lighted and eloquently ticketed, and as resolute- ly refuse to compete with my neigh boring tradesmen either in gas or rhet- oric, the patient subdivision of my parcels passes little recognized as an advantage by my uncalculating pub lic." The shop soon closed down and the grocery trade lost the most dis tinguished representative it is ever likely to possess.-London Chronicle.

sILo HAS MANY ADVANTAGES
EnsiIage Is Nearest and Most Eeon- omlcaI Substitute for Pasture
 Grass, Ideal of Ratlons.

An Ohio farmer, who has used en- silage for a number of years, sums up the advantages which he gains, as follows:
 "I would say that every stock far mer should have a silo for the fol- lowing reasons:
 "First-Because corn ensilage is the nearest and most economical sub stitute for pasture grass, which Is the most ideal of all our rations.
 "Second-That an acre of corn en- silage yields from 500 to 2,O00 pounds more nutrients per acre than any oth- CT of the farm crops.
 ''Fourth-That it's use makes 1t more pleasant to feed stock and also saves a great deal of time and labor.
 "Fifth-Because with its use in the winter ration, larger gains and milk flow are the result.
 "Sixth-With it's use, practically the entire food value of the corn crop is saved.
 "Seventh-That the silo enables the farmer to keep double the number of head of stock on the same farm
 'Eighth-That our fields are cleared and ready for fall wheat or rye, as all our corn stalks are safely stored in our silo instead of going to waste in the field.
 ''Ninth-And lastly and probably the most convincing of all, Is the fact that practically every farmer now us- ing the silo would not do without 1t. When we can grow and store away for winter use a food that takes the place of our pasture and that food can be raised on our farms at less cost than any of our present feeds, the equipment for the storing of such feed should be installed on every stock and dairy farm"

Wood-Eatera.

Wood in certain form is a com mon and constant article of food in all sections of Siberia where the Yakut lives.
 North of Verchoyansk. except in a few sheltered valleys. there is little food, aside from that afforded by fish, than that furnished by the larch. The natives eat it. however. because they like 1t. Even in sections where fish may be had wood usually forms part of the natives evening meal, as the many cleanly stripped larch logs near every hut testify
 The natives strip of the thick lay CTS immediately under the bark of a larch log. and. chopping 1t fine. mix 1t with snow. It is then boiled in a kettle. Sometimes a bit of fish roe is added, and in the southern sections cows milk or butter.-Harper's Week lv

JAPANESE FROG IS AMUSING
Made Out of Stiff Piece of Cardboard With Thread Attached, It Jumps
 About Gayly.

If you have a little Japanese boy or girl you would know all about the green paper toy frog, and you would probably think 1t one of the liyeliest and most entertaining of all your toys. One of the most pleasing things about this quaint little creature is that you can make it yourself. To do this cut a piece of tough paper into the form of square, a good deal larger than you expect the frog to be. Draw lines from corner to corner of the square, and from side to side at the middle Now fold the paper along the diagonal lines. then turn it over and fold along the lines from the sides. This will give you a sort of box, which yc break in the center along the folds. thus making a triangular figure, with the folds sticking up like pyramids. Next grasp the paper below the end of the pyramids and fold it backward so as to make two regular and equal points, When this Is done to each of the eight pyramids the result will be a diamond, with a smaller diamond in the center. Fold each one of the pyra- mids again so as to get all the points

Johnny petnes a Good Roy.

A distinguished visitor was making a short address to the Sunday school
 T am glad to see so many nice boys and girls assembled here today" he began. You are the kind of boys I like. You know there are several kinds of boys. There are boys that are always punctual at school, always have their faces and hands washed, always know their lessons and never play hockey. We call they good boys.
 "Then there are the boys that like to torture cats and rob birds nests and bully boys that are smaller than themselves and steal apples from the grocery stands and smoke cigarettes and all that sort of thing. These we call bad boys. Yes, there are several kinds of boys. Now perhaps you can tell me what kind of boys go to heaven?"
 Up went Johnny's hand like a flash.
 'Well, my little man, said the visitor, smiling complacently and nod ding his head at Johnny, what kind of boys go to heaven?"
 Dead onesl" shouted Johnny at the top of his voice.

ASK YOURSELF THESE
TEST OF "WHAT's THE USE" FOB
 THE sELF-sATIsFIED.
Hero Are a Few Pertinent Suggestions for Daily Living That Will Help to Make You and Your
 Friends Happier.

That old cry of "cui bono" is sup. posed to be the hallmark of the pes. simist, but many a self-satisfied one you'd do well to put the test oi Whats the use" to her daily living.
 Whats the use of stinting so hard for rainy day that you get no fun out of the passing sunny ones? This was the motto of the late Edwin Alb bey, and the woman who brides her self on her thrift and reviles the spendthrift habits of her friend will do well to ponder it.
 Whats the use of a charitable purse and an uncharitable tongue? Kind words are infinitely more than cor. onets-or donations on subscrip. tion list.
 Whats the use of playing the ami. able role in society and a snapdragon in the family circle? Walls have ears, also neighbors have tongues and the real you is not unknown.
 Whats the use of posing as ped. ant with dime novel taste? Mental ity does not need labelling, and you'll never convince the person with brains that you prefer Darwin to the Duchess.
 Whats the use of being a eat to your best girl friend because of a man? The girl will get even and the man sees through you
 Whats the use of ruining your health to gratify your ambition? The quicker a woman learns the unhappi- ness of life when half i'll the bigger chance she stands of success.
 Whats the use of spending money on skin specialists and digestive tab lets while dallying with the things you shouldn't eat?
 Whats the use of playing young when the years have you in their grip? Age is not so unlovely that the aging should treat it as a disgrace. Far better a charming old woman than pitiable mimicry of youth.
 Whats the use of getting down on your luck? There is nothing like a smile to boost you out of the mire.
 Whats the use of kicking? It does. n't make life any sweeter to think yourself victim-nor does it increase your popularity.
 Whats the use of cultivating auto mobile tastes on a walking income? There's joy and health in good walk if you once fight the speed craze.
 Whats the use of striving for the big puddle when you would be so much happier in the small one. Learn ing ones limitations saves heartache.
 Whats the use of leading reams on the thinning process with taste for candy and potatoes fully gratified? Equally, what's the use of a fortune in stays and uncurbed appetite and lazi ness?
 Whats the use of slipshod work? This is an age that demands our best; if we give counterfeit we pay a counterfeiter's penalty.
 Whats the use of sham of any kind One need not be brutally rude to be sincere. It is the untrained taste that prefers ormolu to the gold nugget.

Inqratitude.

 Madam, I have been requested by a number of persons to call here and show you our new patent doorbeIl Everybody says the only reason you haven't a bell Is because you've never thought of it. They say they knock and knock and spoil your paint and their own knuckles and then have to go away disappointed"

OLD TOM STILL IS FAvoRITE
Small Boy Felt Exceedingly Sorry for Little Rooster, but Latter Took
 Care of Himself.

He was a very big white rooster, and, as he belonged only to Willie, why, of course, there never was quite such a wonderful rooster in the world before. At least Willie thought so. One day Willie's papa brought home 8 new rooster. and when Willie saw him he really felt sorry for him, be- cause he was such very little roost- CT by the side of old Tom that Willie felt quite sure Tom would not let him stay in the barnyard.
 But the new rooster did not feel the least bit afraid of Tom, even if he was big, and walked right up to him. looking very much as if he would like to fight And then what do you sup pose old Tom did?
 Well, he just turned and ran as fast as he could across the barnyard, with the new rooster close behind him.
 You may be sure Willie's face look ed very serious for moment, but 1t suddenly frightened up as he ex- claimed:
 Well. papa. old Tom can run the fastest, anyway"
 And so old Tom is still a wonderful rooster, Willie thought; but papa only laughed very hard.-Youth's Compan- ion.

CHANGE IN COLOR OF EYES By No Means Uncommon. and Easily Accounted For, According
 to Surgeon.

The possibility of a mans eyes changing as the result of mental shock or physical i'll treatment was the subject of an interesting discus sion by a number of surgeons In the eye ward of one of the great London hospitals.
 One of the surgeons stated: 'It is common knowledge that great phys ical hardships may suddenly turn the hair white. The loss of color here follows on certain chemical changes. due to disturbances of nutrition. talk. ing place in the tiny particles of coloring matter which give the hair its color
 "All infants at birth have blue eyes. In some babies. immediately after birth. pigment granules begin to develop in the iris Thus they be- come brown or black eyed. In others. however, no such pigment formation takes place. and the eyes remain blue or gray throughout life.
 If this at present blue-eyed ex-con- vict Is really the missing brown eyed banker. reasonable explana- ton of the discrepancy ID the eye colorings would be that ,1nder the stress of physical and mental shock the coloring matter which had in early life developed In each iris had atrophied or disappeared. leaving the eyes the original blue coloring pres ent at birth"

INJURIOUS FLAVoRs IN MILK
One Kind Due to Feed Eaten by Coz and Second Largely Caused by
 Contamination.

By B. F. KAUPP. Pathologist, Colo
 rado Agricultural College.)
 The abnormal or injurious fiavors In milk are of two kinds; first, those due to feed eaten by the COW; second, those due to contamination.
 The first kind Is scientifically spok- en of as feed fiavors and is due to the COW eating large quantities of turnips, onions, ensilage. beets, ragweed, etc.
 This i'll flavor is due to volatile oils contained in the strongly favored feeds. Such fiavors leave the animal through the different secretions and excretions of the body.
 When feeding is done immediately after milking, these feed flavors largely pass of through other chan nels, or secretions, than the milk and are not noticeable. It is also main tained that if some rough forage be fed along with such feeds that pro duce i'll tastes in milk, 1t assists in obviating such flavors.
 It is within the power of the dairy man to obviate the second, flavor of contamination. This class of i'll flavor Is largely due to contaminating bac- teria. Of these there are mary, each giving its peculiar flavor. Another contaminating flavor is due to the ab- sorption of certain strong odors.
 The cause Of the contamination of milk is largely due to lack of perfect cleanliness with the milking utensils, surroundings, methods of delivery and narcona1 oIaau1inosa
 The udder and adjacent parts should be washed with clean water and wiped dry with clean, dry towel. The hands and the clothing of the milkman should be clean. Bottles, buckets. etc, should be sterilized with live steam and turned upside down so as to prevent the collection of dust, which always contains germs and mold spores. Small top pails should be compulsory by law.

French Youth to Learn Chess.

A quaint petition has just been pre- sented to the French Minister of Pub lie Instruction. At the famous cafe de la Regence there meet daily and nightly groups of chess players who have formed themselves into an as- sociation known as the Chess Fedora ton of the Cafe de la Regence- Here the most important class champion ships in Paris are decided. The com mittee of the association have just approached the minister with the re- quest that a series of chess manuals, which they themselves have select ed, shall be distributed with other books as prizes at the end of the school term to the pupils of the va- rious lycees. The chess players are anxious that a knowledge of their fa- yorite game should penetrate among the younger generation. conscious as they are of the importance of chess in building up character and forming the mind The minister has grant ed the request, and France may ex- pect to see grow up among them generation of chess devotees, just as it is now nurturing a generation of football players.-Paris Correspond ent London Globe.
