EATING ON THE ROAD.
A Platter of Scrambled Eggs and a
Choice of Hotels.

Dick Mitchell went out ahead OF
show some weeks ago, and tnat show
seems to have been routed by some
one whose passion was for discovery
rather than for gate receipts. Accord
ing to Mr.. Mitchell'S friends, the music
in most of the theaterS was furnished
by a man with harmonica. Once Mr..
Mitchell told the local manager that he
wanted an augmented orchestra that
night. Il got yuh, bo," said that otfi~
cial. The stage hand is swell player
on the jewsharp."
But the worst of it. from Mr.. Mitch
ellis point of view. has been the food
that he has encountered in the one
horse hotels On one occasion he or
dered scrambled eggs. When the wait
er brought them on he slammed the
plate down proudly in front of the suf-
ferer. There you are, mister" said
be. Tell me if them eggs amt all
right
Mr.. Mitchell glanced at the plate.
"The eggs" said he, look all right.
But when did your cook first notice
that she was losing her hair?"
One morning Mr.. Mitchell met a
friend at breakfast The friend was
frightfully irritated by the quality OF
the service at the hotel. This is aw.
full. Dick" said he Il wonder if there
is another hotel in town."
Yep" said Mitchell. I've just left

Money to Be Made in
Butternuts.

Much attention has been given
in recent years to the raising of
nuts for profit. Orchards of Pc
cans, chestnuts, English walnuts
and filberts have been planted,
and fabulous stories are told by
nurserymen of the quick growth,
early bearing and great yield of
the stock they advertise. At
tempts have been made to grow
these nuts in climates not alto
gether adapted to them, not al
ways with the best of results.
Occasionally appears the destruc-
tive chestnut-bark disease to de-
stroy the work of years, but scat
tered over the Northern States
are nut-trees growing wild, per
fectly hardy and untouched by
disease, bearing, in their un.
cared for condition, good crops
of nuts.
One of the best of these wild.
ings is the butternut, or white
walnut. By roadsides, in fence
corners. in barren pastures, this
hardy nut-tree grows thriftily.
Rarely are butternuts gathered
except, perhaps, a few bushels
to be cracked by the home fire in
the winter evenings, yet the lar.
gest daily n the State of Yer
mont carried an advertisement
all last fall asking for 1000 bush
els. The few who have gatheret
them for sale in past years have
; received from seventy-five cent
to one dollar a bushel for them
There is a market for them in al
large places. The white walnu

James Mark had the misfortune to
lose a fine horse last week. We had
a horse that was not doing well, so
one day last week we were at the
store and told Jim Mark about it, and
he said, Here, take this package OF
condition powders back with you, and
that will fix him all right" So we
gave it to the horse, and then we nx-
ed him a bed of straw.
When we went to see the horse next
morning he was acting awful queer.
So we went up to the store and told
Jim about it, and when we went to
leave Jim said: Hold on. am going
with you. and maybe l can tell what

him and then said, Say, where is
