ton to the Second Georgia regiment to
participate in the celebration of the
Democratic victory in Macon tomor-

ers was the most interesting of all,
many experts discussing the best prac-
teal methods of financing needy farm
ers before the crops are produced and
the most profitable ways TO sell crops
after they are gathered.
G. A. Gigault of Quebec, Canada, re-
viewed the work of cooperative asso-
Citations in Europe and America and
then urged cooperation in SO grading
objects of agricultural value that they
may be standardized He showed the
difficulties to be overcome. but de-
cared that the great convenience in
selection of goods would bring many
thousands of dollars to the farmers
H. G. Price, of Columbus, Ohio,
showed that while the agricultural pro-
duction of this country is the best the
form of the credit is the worst. He
told of his investigation of Germanys
system and recommended that America
adopt one similar. J. Aldus Herr and
John Hamilton also spoke on this SUBJ
ject.

Block Houses and
Cannon Shield Turks.

Trenches and redoubts with cannon
mounted upon them lie between the
fortresses and block houses for the
protection of the Turkish infantry and

A stream Of water runs through the

sion in half.
Across this stream artillery thun-

stoffens' Story Is Questioned.

Los Angeles. Cal. July 20.-But for the fact that 1t would preclude him from participating in arguments to the jury, District Attorney Fredericks would take the stand on rebuttal in the bribery trial of Clarence s. Oar row, and tell of his part in the nego- tiations which preceded the abrupt termination of the McNamara trial. That reason only would bar him from testifying, said Capt. Fredericks, if it should prove that the testimony of Lincoln Steffens, magazine writer, concerning the negotiations, did not coincide with what he knew to be the facts in the matter

Hibernation of Mosquitoes.

Dr. Howard of the department of agriCultEe. who probably knows as much of the mosquito and It's habits as any other man in the world, con- tends that this cosmopolitan pest does not necessarily perish with the coming of winter. On the contrary, mosquitoes have been observed to hibernate, adult specimens living from November until the succeeding April or May with all their powers of torment unimpaired, although their activity is suspended in winter. The mosquito needs but little food, and it is the female that thirsts for blood, the males cOntenting themselves with water and vegetable fluids.
 The fact that mosquitoes are often found upon dry prairies many miles from water is ascribed to the long, evity of the adults Of certain species which enables them to survive sea sons of drought Railroads have been responsible for the transmission of mosquitoes into regions where they were previously rare.-Harper's Week. iy

 But the reason he gave himself as he knotted his tie carefully before the mirror on the Hateful morning of con- fession was that he must play the game"
 T hardly know how to tell you, dear" he began awkwardly, standing tall and perfectly groomed on the hearthrug that afternoon. It's so diff cult to speak to women-pure wom- en, like you-about certain things, but the fact of the matter Is, I've been an awful rotter, Evelyn, and feel it's up to me to own 1t.

 He moved uncomfortably. But it's just what you don't know" he told her, that I'm worrying about. I'm not thinking of cards and racing, and things like that. It's about women l want to speak to you. Especially one woman" He paused, and bit his lip nervously.

He was the inventor of the i'm

meals, which were placed on a tray
outside the locked door. More than
once his wife, alarmed by the pro

the most profound silence reigned, un-

WENT AWAY WITH THE BOOTY
Elderly Irish Lady Proved She Was
Quite Capable of Rising to
the Occasion.

Lord Spencer when viceroy of Ire
land, used to keep open house, and all
ladies and gentlemen who had attend
ed drawing-rOoms or levees had an I'M
written right to attend the ST. Pat
ricks day ball. Some very queer PEG.
pie used to present themselves.
Not contented with eating and drink
ing all they could, many persons used
to make predatory raids on the tables
and carry off eatables of all sorts. On
one occasion the comptroller saw a
stout, elderly lady take a whole fowl
and stuff it with considerable deftness
into a somewhat capacious silk and
embroidered bag. He at once went
up to her and, pointing with his finger
at the bag, said:
Madam, won't you take some ham
with that?"
The good lady was not in the least
abashed, but replied:

Charge That American Wives Pay
Too Little Attention TO Smaller
Form of Economies.

American wives have yet to learn
that housekeeping is a business In
which they can earn money by saving
it. Many wives are today seeking
desperately for some occupation
which will pay them few dollars
each week, when in their own re-
frigerators and pantries food is going
to waste, milk is growing sour and
wasteful cooks are using eggs and
butter and sugar in prodigious guam
titles because their mistresses would
consider themselves 'stingy" to speak
a word Of warning or give direct su-
pervision of the culinary department.
The French people are far ahead
of us in their observance Of the pen
ny saved, penny earned" theory. They
use for their salads the parts Of the
vegetables which we throw away.
They toast the leftover slices OF
bread which we let mold.
They prepare from the common and
healthful vegetables which we scorE
dishes fit for epicures. And they do
these things because they believe that
thrift Is imperative, and as result
they have bank accounts and finan-
cial stability which is rare among the
plain people of other nations.
In housekeeping woman has five or
six professions. She must know some
thing of dressmaking, of cooking, of
serving, of finance, Of household hy-
giene. And these things are interest
ing only when they are given their
true value in the world Of endeavor
The woman who holds cOmpetently
her place as manager Of her house
hold ranks high above women in
other professions, for she has learned
to do not one thing, but many and
her executive ability must be Of the
most perfect order if she is to realize
the ideal in the working out OF her
domestic big business. "-Exchange.
