to have il and so did Mathew At first they
ioked about it. then they argued and finally quar-
relied Luke came home night and announced
that the girl of his choice had promised to marry
him.
''Ye maun gle me the cheer as weddin geefe,
he told Mathew
THAT wilma" answered Mathew.
The next night came Mathew with a similar
announcement and similar request The an
swer of Luke Il wilma"
Nothing could be done. The prospective brides
waited tearfully month by month. They grew at
first angry, then Indifferent and finally sought
u5Dands elsewhere
year passed and Luke and Mathew were no
nearer solution Then, after discussion in
black anger Luke declared that they would d.
vide the house and all In 1t and never speak
again Mathew agreed. The two brothers set
to work silently. They drew line across the
center of the front walk, up. the porch steps and
directly through the middle of the house. The
stove in the front room was on Luke's side of the
house, but the stove in the dining room was on
Mathews. Where the line bisected the dining
room the table was set so that each had his
just portion
mark was drawn through the center OF the
cook stove and up the stoveppe. All the chairs
were equally divided, but the grandfathers chair
remained. What to do with that was still prob
lem Finally it was decided to place it exactly
in the center of the front room 1t was agreed
that it should be used by the brothers on alter
nate days The doors were sawed in half and
hinged so that neither should touch the property
of the other. Bricks and copper divided the
cook stove, fire space, oven and all When the
grim details had been settled the brothers retired
each to his own portion of the house and COM
menced the long silence In the twenty-three
years that followed neither stepped over the
boundary line They cooked theirsown meals,
each on his part Of the cook stove, carried
the food TO their respective ends of the table and
ate without speaking. At evening when Luke
entitled to the chair, he pulled Ii over into
his part OF the house and sat down and smoked.
The next night Mathew enjoyed the same privf
lege.

will see it's accomplishment within our time is OF
course debatable but the elements Of risk are
less than most people would imagine, thanks to
the stabilizing powers of the gyroscope, improve
ments in electrical propulsion and the metallurgi-
cal advances which make 1t possible to obtain
lighter and stronger materials than could be had
a few years ago.
About year ago the engineering world was
decidedly interested in the demonstrating per
formances of small levitated railway, the
climax of years Of study on the part of its In
ventor Emile Bachelet. Certainly that small in
stallation did some remarkable things, and the
question is, can full-sized plant be made to
run as effectively and within the limits OF COM
mercial economy?
Mr.. Bachelet made novel use of the repusive
force of certain magnetic stream lines, and his
carrier or actually made to float in the
air. thus avoiding rail friction and other associate
hndrances. His purpose was to provide means
of transporting mail and some kinds Of valuable
express matter aggregatng in unit weight, with
the car, total of about 500 pounds; and from
New York to Boston he prophesed a speed in
transit of quite 800 miles an hour.

purpose Of organizing this company.
His plan was SO feasible and novel
that he surprised even nimself in the
rapidity of his success. The company
is organized with a capital of $780,
900 and Saturday afternoon saw over
100000 spot cash paid in, and consid-
cradle more subscribed, which will be
forthcoming. This is the quickest rec
ord ever known in the United States.

Lons-Lost Mine Found.

The long-iost Cinnabar mine in Ne
vada has been found after a search
lasting more than thirty years. The
discovery was made some weeks ago
by George Keough while searching for
strayed stock, seven miles from Nina.
The discovery was kept secret un-
til claims were staked and assays
made of the ore. showing it to run high
in quicksilver.
Following the announcement Of the
finding of the mine rush was started
for the district in which it is located.
Hawthorne, after finding the Gin
nabar deposit, became confused and
lost his way on the desert. He wan
dered about for several days and final
ly landed at New Boston, formerly a
thriving camp, but now extinct
He conducted expedition after expe-
dition in search of the deposit, but his
efforts were fruitless. He described
the location, stating that two petrified
trees stood near the mound.
The stone trees are to be noticed
today as described by the old pros
pector, who died thirteen years ago.

WOE BROUGHT MOTHER FOX
TRAGIC Moments for Vixen After She
Had Carried Poisoned Food to
Her Litter.

On one of the large estates in Hing
ham, few weeks ago, fox was found
to be destroying poultry. The time OF
the raids, and their boldness, were
proof enough that the fox must be a
female with young. Poisoned meat
was prepared for her, and at once the
raids ceased. A few days later one of
the workmen of the estate came upon
the den of fox, at the mouth of
which lay dead whole litter of young
ones. They had been poisoned. The
mother had not eaten the doctored
food herself, but had carried 1t home
to her family. They must have died
in the burrow. for it was evident from
the signs that she had dragged them
out into the fresh air to revive them,
and deposited them gently on the
sand by the hole. Then in her per-
plexity she had brought various It'd
bits of mouse and bird and rabbit and
placed at their noses to tempt them
to wake up out Of their strange sleep
and eat as hungry children ought to
eat. Who knows how long she watch
ed beside the still forms, and what
her emotions were? She must have
left the neighborhood soon after, how
ever, for no one has seen her since
about the estate.-Dallas Lore Sharp.

PLAN TO SAVE THE HAY CROP
Farmers Cannot Afford to Allow valu-
able Alfalfa and Glover to Be
Ruined by Showers.

Many farmers will be aggravated
BY frequent showers during alfalfa and
clover haying. What are you going to
do about it? Are you going to let hay
worth to you as feed from So to SIS
per ton be spoiled by rain?
One cannot always wait for the
weather to get settled. In many locali-
ties It does not settle till after haying
Is over. Overripe hay is very little
good. It must be cut in season, re-
CARELESS Of the weather. We suggest
that you get hundred hay caps for
the field and some stack covers II you
stack outdoors. The caps will not cost
very much and II cared for will last
many years. Then you can cover the
hay cocks and let them cure longer
than you would dare If they were left
exposed to rain.
We've got to look more carefully to
saving what we grow, as well as grow
ing larger crops, and this is . step in
that direction.
