William the Adaptable.

An excellent story is told of the en-
peror, whose power of being enthusi-
astically interested in every function
he attends was once commented upon
by foreigner, who inquired how it
was that his majesty was able to dis
| play such unbounded enthusiasm about
such everyday occurrences as births,
marriages and deaths. "Ah," said a
friend of his, that is part of the kai-
ser's wonderful character, for when
ever he attends christening he thinks
he is the baby; whenever he honors a
wedding with his presence he imagines
he is the bride; whenever he hOnOrs a
funeral somehow or other he invaria-
bly, manages TO get hold of the idea
that he is the corpse"
The emperor once taught his barber
lesson. Very punctual himself, he
noticed that his barber was almost al
ways a few minutes late when the
time came for shaving him, and he pre-
sented him with a gold chrOnometer
and urged him to make good use Of it.
Much to his surprise, the barber con-
tinued to be a few minutes late almost
every morning, and after waiting in
vain for some signs of improvement
the emperor said to him one day:
Have you still the chronometer
which gave you?"
"Nes, your majesty; here it is" re-
piled the barber, taking it from his
pocket.
"Give 1t TO me-" said the emperor
at is evidently of no use to you, and
you can have this one instead"
With these words he placed the
handsome gold chronometer on his
dressing table and handed to the amaz.
ed barber nickel plated watch worth
about 81.
The kaiser once swore in the re.
cruits of the Potsdam garrison In a
manner to inspire the soldiers with
the spirit which swayed Cromwelrs
lronsides He said:
"You see before you an altar. On It
behold the cross, the symbol of all
Christians! As such you have taken
the oath of allegiance to the colors,
and l hope and require that you will
ever be mindful Of this pledge. ASH
stand here a memorable episode rises
before my eyes. When the Kaiser
Leopold Of Austria handed over the SUI
preme command of his army to the IA
nous Prince Eugene and gave him the
marshal's baton the prince seized the
crucifix and, holding IL aloft, cried,
This shall be our generalissimop
nd gtY
nents from you. l desire pious and
gallant soldiers in my army, not mock
trs."

FOR FEEDING TURKEYS ONLY
Small v-Shaped Trough Elevated to
Height to Allow Big Birds to
Pick From Is Useful.

Often on a farm where turkeys are
raised right along with the chickens
and other poultry, it is desirable to
feed them heavier than the other poul-
try, yet suitable means of doing so are
not available without a fenced yard
to separate them, writes p. c. Gross
Of Ohio in the Prairie Farmer. In
such cases the following contrivance
sserves admirably:
A small V-shaped trough, of imma-
terial length, is elevated by means of
supports to a height that will allow
the turkeys to stand on the floor and
pick from 1t, yet be too high to per-
NIT the chickens and small fowls do
ing likewise. Three or four inches
above the top of the trough board, as
wide as the trough, is attached fiat
wise. This prevents the chickens from
flying up and standing on the edge of
the trough. The sides of the trough

it be aIr-tlgnt. Laying hens must have
fresh air at all times of the year.
By this time you should have your
spring breeders and the cockerel with
which they are to be mated selected.
The Indian Runner duck Is not a
new variety, although it is not as old
as some Of the other varieties of
ducks.
Duck eggs are in demand by confec-
TONERS, as they impart glaze to
their icing, which cannot be had with
hen eggs.
The critical period of the turkey is
the first eight weeks of its life.
About As eggs is the average yearly
record of the hen
With many flocks, the addition Of
an ample supply Of meat to the ra-
ton will cause a marked increase in
the size Of the egg.
1t takes lots of scheming and coax
ing to get the hens to lay eggs this
cold weather, but they are worth the
price after you do get them.
Hens with plenty of exercise and
comfortable surroundings lay heavier
eggs than those in restricted quar-
ters; often eggs 10 per cent heavier.

Smallpox Notice.

Regulations for control Of the Sma J.
pox epidemic Of Cloverpott vicinity,
recommended by the State Board of
Health.
Smallpox has existed for some weeks
in Cloverport aud vicinity, and there
are now several cases Of the disease
In the City and several IN other parts
of the County.
This disease is entirely preventabe
and its continued presence IN COM
munity is plain evidence that vacci-
nation has not been done as provided
by law.
1t Is a loathsoms disease aud most
severe case may develope from the
mildest one.
Vaccination successfully and properly
done Is positive means Of preventing
the disease in an individual and when
the sore is cared for rightly and kept
clean it will cause very little inconve
nience to the person vaccinated.
To suppsess the spread Of this dis
ease it Unnecessary that the following
measures be executed.
1./Quarantine each family in which
there is person afflicted.
e. Maintain this quarantine by
peans of one or more guards.
/5. Vaecinate the remainder Of the
family whether or not they have been
previously vaccinated and any Others
who have been exposed to the disease.
4. Enforce the general vaccination
law.
The County Bard of Health is am
ply able through the cooperation Of the
City officers and Fiscal Court and peo.
pie to carry out these recommendation
and thereby prevent unnecessary sick
ness Of the people and can do so at far
less expense than would be incurred
II it becomes necessary for the State
Board of Health to take charge Of the
situation at the County's expense.
1t is recommended by the State
Board of Health that quarantine regu-
lations against the City of Cloverport
be withheld for a period OF ten days in
order that the local authorities may
control the situation through the CO.

ious that this loathsome disease be re-

DESIGNING COMMONWEALTH CAPITAL

The artistic superiority which the country at
large has habitualy adopted toward Chicago will
have to be abandoned now that a citizen of that
enterprsing center has won the prize for the best
design for the new capital of the Australian Com
monwealth. Experts in civic beauty from all over
the world competing for the $500 offered
as prize, while the glory of success weighed even
more effectually.
The task was one Of heroic proportions. Not
since our own Major LEnfant designed the Capital
of this country, perhaps, has an American had city
building put up to him so tremendous a scale.
The Australians had gone out into the very wilder
ness and selected site for their proposed capi-
tai 1t was to be built from the ground up--from
the capitol building and the departments down
to the smallest public edfce. Streets and avenues
and parks were to be laid out according to a har-
monious plan. There was no limit to the field on
which an artistic imagination might dwell, and
Walter Burley Griffin seems to have risen to the
opportunity.
Other sections of the country may open their eyes
IT, astonishment at the thought that Chicago man
has been the successful contestant, but the fact is
that what we once knew as the Windy City has on
foot now plan for municipal Identification which
stands practically unrivaled while it is generally
conceded that the Worlds Fair buildings were the
nearest approximation to fairyland that the eye o
man has ever rested upon in this Western Hemi
sphere. So it need not be so surprising after all
| OF course the new Australian capital canno
hope tc oe so beautiful the Capital of the Untec
States, unless it were to slavishly copy design
but apparently it will be worthy of great people
At all events il is flattering to our national pride
to know that an American has carried away the hon
ors in the face of competing world.
