I'm resting on my way home from

times while she was speaking.
"Ho. no. hot" laughed Jimmy
Skunk. do you call that resting?
That's a joke. Jenny Wren. Resting!
Why, you couldn't sit still and rest if

II could so! I'm resting right now,

a saucy f1irt Of her funny little tail.
"There's great news in the old Briar

Jimmy pricked up his ears. News

something TO do with Peter Rabbit"

"I'll never tell! I'll never tell" cried
Jenny Wren, growing so excited that
It seemed to Jimmy as if there was
danger that she would turn herself
inside out. II promised not to and 1
never will" Then for fear that she
would in spite of herself she flew on
her way home.
Jimmy watched her out Of sight
with a puzzled frown. III I didn't
know that she gets. so terribly excited
over nothing I'd think that there re-
ally was some news i'm the old Briar
way. 1 haven't anything better to do.
SO 1 believe Til drop around that way
and make Peter Rabbit a call"
He found Peter in a sweet clover
patch just outside the old Briar Patch.
and it struck Jimmy that Peter looked
uncommonly happy. He said as much.

thought. Then he added hastily:
E"You see I've been uncommonly hap.

But ! hear there's great news over
here in the old Briar Patch.'' persisted

The Mountains os Life

The Mountains of Life.
There's . land far away, mid the stars
VI are told,
Where they know not the SORROWS of
time
Where the pure waters wander
through valleys Of gold,
IT'S the land of III God, tits the home
Of the soul.
Where the ages Of splendor eternally
roll
Where the way-weary traveller reach
es his goal.
lOn the evergreen Mountains of Life.
sOur gaze cannot soar to the beautiful
land,
But, our visions have told us its bliss;
And our souls by the gale from it's
gardens ar famed,
When we faint In the desert OF this;
And we sometimes have longed for its
holy repose,
When our spirits were torn with temp
tations and woes,
And we've drunk from the tide Of the
river that flows
From the evergreen Mountains Of Life.
Oh, the stars never tread the blue
heavens at night,
+, have trod;
And the day v smiles from his
palace Of light.
hRut we feel the bright smile Of our
God.
we are travelling homeward, through
changes and gloom.
To a kingdom where pleasures un-
ceasingly bloom,
And our guide is the glory that shines
through the tomb,
From the evergreen Mountains Of Life.

POULTRY
FATS
TO DISCOURAGE BROODY HENS
There Are Many Ways of Breaking
Up Broodiness-Coop With Stat
ted Bottom Is Excellent.

The end of the breeding season
seems to be the appointed time for
hens to get broody. Earlier in the
year when their services would have
been most welcome great difficulty
was experienced in finding sufficient
to sit on the desired number OF eggs.
August is too late for the utilizing Of
their broodiness, unless a few duck
eggs be set under some Of them. At
this time, too, the scarcity of eggs
makes it the desire of all poultry
keepers to break up their ''broodies"
and have them laying again as soon as
possible.
There are many ways of breaking
hens of broodiness, and the more bar
barous ones such as tying the hen up
by one leg, throwing cold water over
her, or making her stand in water
should be forgotten and practiced no
longer. The same and better results
can be obtained by more human meth
DDS.

with Slated bottom, and suspending
the coop from the ceiling OF the

Pneumonia Is Fatal to Jurist Who
Was Long on Bench of Rock

Janesville.-John Wesley Sale, for
twenty-seven years judge of the Rock

MAY ARREST PEA GAMERS
Are Charged With Failure to Obey
Labor Law Rules Governing
Hours Of Employees.

Madison 1t is reported here that
several pea Gamers are to be arrest
ed on the charge of violating state
labor laws.
When the Wisconsin Industrial
commission granted an order permit
ting the Gamers to employ women
for longer time than ten hours a
day for period of two weeks, they
laid down stringent rules as to the
way in which the Wisconsin Gamer
les should be operated. A careful
watch was kept on every cannery in
the state.
1t is understood that where a sub
stantial compliance with the laws
was attempted by canneries there
will be no arrests, but where there
was little heed paid to the laws ar
rests will follow.

MARRIAGE LAWS
CAUSE INQUIRIES
ATTORNEY GENERAL is REcIPl-

NoN-REsiDENTS OF STATE.
ACT is EXPLAINED BY OWEN
Head ef Wisconsin's Legal Depart
menx Says Thirty Day Residence Pc
Rod Required Only Where Appiica-
ton Is Made for Waving Delay.

Madison. Persons desiring to gee
married in Wisconsin do not have to
be residents of the state for thirty
days. as has been generally reported
IN the newspapers, said Attorney
General w. G. Owen.
Some one" he said, started a
story to the effect that The legislature
had recently passed law requiring
parties to be residents Of the state
for a period of thirty days before
they could be married legally here.
No such law was passed The law
probably referred to provides that a
person who applies to court of rec
ord for an order authorizing marri-
agc without the delay of five days az
ter the issuing of a license for the
marriage must be resident of the
state for at least thirty days. Either
party to a marriage or the parent or
guardian of the female concerned
may apply for such an order"
During the last two weeks the at
torney general has received maE"let-
tiers from nonresidents desiring to
marry nonregtdents in Wisconsin, in
curing about the new law and ask
ing IL it prohibited all persons who
were not residents of the state from
marrying here.
The Richards law requiring all
men applying for marriage licenses
to show certificate of good health
from a practicilg physician appointed
by the state bnard Of health has also
caused many letters of inquiry to
come to the attorney general. This
law, he replies, does not go into eff
feet until jan 1, next. After that
date men who desire to get married
must secure such certificates before
they can get a marriage license.

Madison Suit has been started
in circuit court Of Dane county by
the Kar Piluette Mining Co., Platte
vile, against the state to contest the
income tax law as applied to income
from mines, levied and collected for
the year 1912.
The question to be brought to is
sue in the suit is that of depreciation,
the company claiming that the value
of the ore mined should be figured
as depreciation of the mining proper
ty. The state tax commission, while
it holds that a certain percentage of
depreciation should be allowed for
the ore taken out, does not agree
with the company entirely.
