"Oh, no-nothing like that" she
said, hastily.
He looked at her closely and she
averted her eyes. Mr.. Jeffries often
wondered if he had made mistake.
He felt that this woman to whom he
had given his name did not love him,
but his vanity as much as his pride
prevented him from acknowledging
it, even to himself After all, what
did he care? She was companion.
she graced his home and looked after
his creature comforts. Perhaps no
reasonable man should expect any

The banker noted his wife's beau

graceful lines of her neck and bosom,
glittering with precious stones. An
exquisite aroma exuding from her per-
son reached where he stood. His
eyes grew more ardent and, passing
his arm affectionately around her

Farmers on the virgin soils OF the
United States where weeds we're not
numerous were inclined to ridicule the
.dea that they could ever become seri-
ously troublesome Tie fears OF the
.cientists have been realized. how
ever, and there are now many farms

farmer has become discouraged ana

With the seriousness of the situation
There are many farms where 70 per

is a great necessity Of some con-

eradication with respect to two OF the
most widespread and serious weed
pests.
The Worst Weeds.
While there are many weeds which
are proving troublesome on farms.
there are two which are pre-eminently
noxious. particularly in Wisconsin
and the north central states, viz:
Quack grass and Canada thistles
These weeds are extremely difficult to
eradicate because. of their peculiar
nature and habits.
Wild mustard has become a serious
pest in the grain fields of many
states, and In some sections is get
ting beyond the control of farmers
using ordinary methods of eradication.
Land values have deteriorated where
the fields have become thickly seeded
to mustard. Considerable effort has
been expended by farmers in pulling
the mustard plants when in full bloom
at a time when the weed could be
easily recognized in the grain fields,
but when fields became badly infested
this was laborious task, and often
was done at the expense of one-half
or more Of the crop.
Other weeds which are especially
obnoxious are the Sow thistle, Star
thistle, English plantain. Ox-eye daisy,
Toad fax. Dodder and Velvet leaf,
and in many sections other weeds are
serious.

There is nothing in common between

"A few years ago there were many
plays before the public which could be
properly construed as Objectionable to
certain creeds or nationalities. While
absolutely NO offense was intended,
the exaggerated characters were plan
ned for Laughing purposes only and
serious objection to them was really
unnecessary presumption. It Is likely
that the nationality to which Mutt
and Jeff' belong will impose any seri-
GUS objection to the Characterization.
.'The land OF Make Believe" will not
agitate any protest. Any living man
who feels that 'sMutt and Je6" are
intended as an insult to him person

the fact that either Mutt or Jen

tract at good salary to play either

KNOX AND HIS TOUR

New York Herald: 1t really seems
to be rather small thing for the demo-
Gratis at Washington to talk of in
vestigating whether Mr.. Knox the Sec.
rotary OF State, has taken with him
on his tour a salaried employe of the
government to perform the duties of
valet. ~
Secretary Knox has probably given
to this government in one way and
another enough of time, extra service
and private funds to pay all the Wallets
ever engaged in diplomacy many
times over. - r.
But Congress may well inquire in
to the subject Of insuring our Cabinet
Ministers on their. visits, of amity and
good will to foreign countries: What
would h4ppen shknld oAesof them be
dynamited?, 1t seems that Mr.. Knox
only narrowly escaped thirteen bombs
in Nicaragua, perhaps because the
number was unlucky for the dynamit-
ers and one was 'hoist by ais own
petard." =. -;-..,j :
There should be life insurance
fund maintained by the government
for the protection of the families of
public officials who devote their time
to making peace abroad, especially
on armOred cruisers. = 80

PATRIOTIC ANCESTRAL
II SOCIETIES
"A sgood many jokes are directed by
the thoughtless or the irreverent at
those Organisations of men and
women that are based on decent from
some American who served in the col

the nation. Says the Washington
Star The Americans sense Of hu-
NOR cannot be restrained. He often
let's it run away with him. He is a
contradiction in that while his heart
is reverent his speech is rarely so.
The development of these associa-
7tions and their increase in member
ship are worthy Of remark. They are
'defensible on many grounds. Senti-
mentally, they preserve the memory
of ancestors, many of whom made
sacrifices for what they believed was
right, and for causes which have oper-
ated for the betterment of the human
race. They foster good deal Of sen
'timent. and sentiment Is a valuable
!. thing. Without sentiment there would
be no patriotism and no ciivarlry.
The world would have had no poetry
