SNAPPED
WIVES
By MARY CANSEVOORT

Two family houses are very common
nowadays. They are inexpensive, and
everything inexpensive finds q ready
demand. In two family house in B.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kirby lived on the Sec
ond door and Mr.. and Mrs. Axhalter
on the f5rst door Cheap things are apt
to be expensive in the end. and it was
20 with this two family house. Mrs
Kirby became infatuated With Mr.. Ak.
halter and MIR. Kirby with Mrs. Ak
halter. Living under the same roof,
there was plenty Of chance for one Of
the men to meet the wife Of the other
clandestinely. and both couples were
playing the same game.
There wasn't any trouble about the
matter. Why should there be. since
all were satisfied to swap partners?
But the EXPENSE! Two single houses
would have cost so per rent more. but
the divorces cost 100 per cent more
Besides. there were two new trOus-
seaux. two weddings involving car
riages. wedding breakfasts aud the
parsons fees. Would II not have been
better had each couple taken a single
house?
Unfortunately the leases ran for two
years. and the new weddings occurred
within one. 1t would be pity to lose
one years rent on account Of an EN-
barassing proximity between two cou-
pies who had snapped partners. es-
pecially when there was no embarrass-
ment So the first Mrs. Kirby. having
become Mrs. Axhalter. went to live
downstairs. and the first Mrs. Axhalter.
having become Mrs. Kirby. went to
live upstairs. Everybody in the neigh
borhood said: How practical and how
sensible! All has been done pleas
antly. OF all quarrels family quarrels
are the worst"
It so happened that Mr. and Mrs.
Kirby went on journey. and while
they were gone Mr.. Kirby died
Meanwhile Mr.. AxhaIter died too The
disconsolate widows met In the ball.
That's part Of two family house

should be level and the teats evenly
placed and conveniently long to be
MIXED. The udder should be covered
with fine soft hair. should be springy,
ard the veins should be prominent.
Milk Veins and Milk Wells.
The milk veins coming from tie I'D
der and running forward under the
body should be large, tortuous and ex-
tending we'll toward the front before
entering the body through what are
called the milk wells. Sometimes these
openings in the abdominal wall are
small and press the veins. swelling
them and making them appear larger
than they really are. In buying COW
not milking it is well to feel the size
Of the milk wells. and they will be

Of the milk veins.
After the COW is MIXED out the I'D

soft and pliable. Occasionally we see
a cow with a beautiful udder. After
being MIXED she stiIl has her beautiful
udder, but has added little to the milk
pail This is known as fleshy udder
and oftsn deceives a buyer.
The escutcheon. or milk mirror. IS
considered by some dairymen as an
important indication of a cows value
as a mixer. The escutcheon is that
portion of the hind quarters at the back
and top Of the udder where the hair
points upward instead of downward.
1t is taken as good sign when the
space covered with such hair is large
and when there are several ''cores" or
'.whirlpools'' where the hair gathers
toward center.
Some judges like the terminal tail
bone to reach the hook. The tail is but
a continuation Of the backbone-the

ye:le,rae the longer the TAIL 1t should
taper toward the point and end in

First Look For Constitution.
Summing up the qualities Of good
COW, we should say first look for con-
stitution. 1t is anything but pleasant
to think of using milk which has come
from a sickly, diseased animal. Don't
you think with me there is strong
relationship between the vitality Of the
COW and the vitality Of the milk she
gives? First, then, let US emphasize
the necessity Of having healthy COW
as indicated by readiness for her
food, a full, bright eye. soft, pliable
hair and skin; steady. even breathing
and good heart and lung capacity.
Then we want good milking qualities,
as suggested by a strong nervous sys-
TEN, large middle piece and splendid
udder. She should have a quiet, con-
tented disposition, submit quietly to
being handled and should be an easy
mixer.
A COW should increase in her milk
flow during the first few lactation Pc
RODS, and frequently there is slight
increase in the percentage Of tat as
she reaches maturity.
