Blow at Suicides.

most unusual mission for a monkey"
said an animal dealer.
"He was bought by woman who
runs furnished room house in which
three persons have killed themselves
with gas recently. Those suicides have
upset her nerves. Now she is going
to try the same preventive means
adopted by three of her friends.
"They too, keep roomers. Also
they keep monkeys. There have been
several attempts at suicide in their
houses. but they have always been
frustrated by the monkeys. who have
smelled gas and set up such a chat
tering that they woke everybody up.
Monkeys are extremely sensitive
to the odor of gas. This customer Of
mine hopes to utilize hers as q new
kind of life preserver. "-Philadelphia

Clever Fat Men.

It is frequently averred that fat Is
deadening to the brain. and conse-
Quently a foe to intellectual activity.
But is this SO? Some of the greatest
men the world has ever known were
plump even to obesity.
Napoleon was decidedly embonpoint.
DR.. Johnson was aeshy even to flabbi-
ness. So was his biographical shad-
ow, Boswell. Balzac, the great French
novelist, was so stout that it was a
days exercise to walk around him,
and he was encircled with bandages
as if he were a hogshead. Rossini, the
composer, was a regular Jumbo, since
for six years he never saw his knees.
Jules Janin, the prince of critics,
broke every sofa he ever sat down
upon. Lablanche, the great singer,
was charged three fares when he trav-
eled. Dumas pere was stout, and
Sainte-Beuve carried the stomach of a
Falstaff. Eugene Sue had such aver
sion to his growing corpulency that
he drank vinegar to keep 1t down, and
yet he wrote THE Wandering Jew"
A man is not necessarily fat-witted
because he has a boundless stomach.

woman hired her on the spot. asked
the manager If it was the custom for

sUNFL0WER SEED FOR HENS
Russian Variety 10 Most Prolific for
Furnishing Good Quality OF
Rich OIL Feed.

For poultry the Russian sunflower Is
the most prolific variety. Sow seed
early in June. The sunf1ower Is a
profitable crop to grow for furnishing
a good quality Of rich oil feed to take
the place Of cottonseed or flaxseed
meal. Sunfiower seed is used in all
the poultry mixtures now sold in the
markets.
The sunflower is a hardy plant. a
vigorous and rapid grower. and a
good plant to grow not only for it's
seeds, but also for its bright. beauti-
full yellow blossoms. The plant, when
in full bloom. makes a good food for
honey bees. Have the ground deeply
plowed and thoroughly mellowed. The
ground should be rich to grow large
heads full Of seed. Mark the rows on
three feet apart and three inches deep.
Drop two seeds to the running foot.
When plants are up thin out the stand

port, Ark. I was bugler of Company
A, and was at that time a beardless
boy of twenty. On the evening OF
March . We camped on Alder creek.
II had been raining steadily all day,
and the creek bottom on which we
camped was quite wet and covered
with pools Of water, writes @. M. Kel.
Ter Of Brookdale, Cal, in the National
Tribune. The camp was pitched with
all due regard to military regulations;
each company's tents we're in perfect
alignment regardless Of waterpools.
The tent occupied by Corporal 8.
D. Cleland, George Webster. John
Eberhart and myself happened to be
directly over one Of these pools. and
~ II was impossible to make our beds
CORPORAL Cleland went to Captain
Bargh for permission to move the
tent o few feet back on higher
ground, but the request met with
prompt refusal. Military rules at that
stage OF the game had to be observed.
Night fell early, and after q supper
Of bacon, bareback and coffee we
wrapped ourselves in our blankets and
sat on our saddles.
BY eight o'clock we all decided we
had had enough Of 1t, and moved on
the other side Of the creek, deciding
that military regulations might go
hang" We found a dry spot under
large oak tree. 1t was hollow. and
We soon had enough dry wood to
start q roaring fire, before which We
made our bed and were soon asleep.
About IL o'clock Cleland woke us
mp in no gentle way, and to our sur
prise and CONSERVATION we saw the
trunk Of the tree was a roaring fur
mace. with sparks and fire spouting
out Of a hole 20 feet from the ground.
That chimney certainly had good
draft.
Some of US were Of the opinion that
the tree could not possibly burn down
before morning, and were going to
sleep again, but after a heated discus
sion we gathered our traps and went
back to our tent, where, seated on our
saddles, we dozed till morning. About
three o'clock the whole camp was
awakened by a loud crash. and when
daylight came we found the tree ly-
