two less el,ttive officers in the

The cold wave which has envelop-
ed almost the entir eUnited States
within the past week did not miss
Phoebe. The mercury went to low
ebb. eight and ten degrees below
zero having been registered by local
thermometers. In the absence of
snow, Jack Frost found easy access
to the water mains, and for several
days it was feared that the town
would suffer a complete water fam
ne. But, Notwithstanding the dill
gent efforts put for by Mr.. s. B. Eu
banks, agent for the water company,
md his men, practically all -he mains
in the city, outside of the Main street
line, fl,oze tight. Many of the fire
Ilydrants were out of commission on
account of the frost and hence the
fear of an outbreak of fire placed q
still more serious aspect to the stu
alton.
The Cedar street line froze up late
Tuesday night and since that time

nave been obliged to carry water fol

prevailed on Meadow Valley street
but the situation was relieved ther,

While on Lacour street, only two {

On the Prince Consolidated side

READERS ARE NOT CRITICAL
DlsJoInted Publication Of a Serial BY
Anatole France Didn't Arouse
Many Protests.

NJ. Anatolc France says that he
finds the public by no means critical
of form in novels: "Soon after Sur
la Pierre Blanche began to appear
in serial form | went on a long holi-
day and before leaving Paris | split
my manuscript into a number OF
portions each exactly the right
length for daily feuilleton. I bore
these to the newspaper office and saw
them carefully arranged in separate
pigeonholcs. Unfortunately the
printer who had to extract the in
stallments day by day took them in
vertical instead Of horizontal order
80 that the feuilletons appeared
without any suggestion of sequence.
Apparently, incohcrent writing
shocks few people nowadays, for only
small proportion of my readers
protested against this disjointcd
form of publication"

DOING AN UNWlSE PRACTICE
Proper Time to Rise 10 Whom sleep
Ends, but II 10 Not
Easy.

The proper time to risc-if we
could only make up our minds TO it
is when sleep properly ends. boz
ing is not admissible from any rca-
sonnble or health point Of view.
The brain falls into the state we
call sleep, and the other organs Of
the body follow it. True sleep is
the aggregate Of sleeps. In other
words, sleep, which must be natural
function, is stat" which consists in
the sleeping or rest OF all the several
parts Of the organism.
Sometimes one, and at other times
.ahothcr part Of the body as a whole
may be fatigucd, and so the last 30

feed sloppy; just moist enough to
cling together without being summy
A duck cannot eat gummy feed with
out wasting 1t.
Other vegetables. such as turnips,
beets. rutabasas, ETC., are sometimes
used instead of potatoes. Pumpkins,
when thoroughly cooked. make 4 very
good basis for the mash The seeds
should always be removed.
When no vegetables are to be had
we use equal parts of boiled oats,
corn meal, wheat bran, and middlinss
or second -four with a little powdered
charcoal added. Some people (who
ought to know better put sand and
oyster shell in their duck feed. When
this is done the ducks are often forced
to consume more grit than they 70
quire.
or course ducks must have plenty
OF grit at all time. but 1t should not
be mixed with the food. We place
shallow boxes OF grit close to the feed
troughs. Oyster shell and coal cinders
in some OF the boxes. ard clean, course
sand in others.
Ducks will eat grit after every meal
II It Is within reach.
They usually drink and rinse their
beaks while eating. therefore wnter
should be placed near the fed
troughs. Also green food Is necessary
the year round. Some sort OF green
stun should be given at least once Q
day In winter.
II cabbage is plentiful. n little may
be added to the mash each time. II
should be chopped raw. AS bulk is
one Of the important elements in q
ducks ration. It Ia good plan to
provide an abundance OF green stun
for winter use. We usually SOW q

There is usually Bome shed or build.
Ing that can be converted into a duck
house at small expense.
II the roof is good the rest ia easy.
n the weather boarding ia not sum
ciently close to keep out draughts in
cold weather cover the outside with
tarred paper or strip with lath.
A board Moor is better than an earth
floor, because the ducks often stir
up the ground in n very disngreeable
manner where there il the least sign
OF moisture.
In cold weather ducks should be
kept In the house. because their feet
are so tender that when they come in
contact with the ground they suffer
greatly. and hobble along as though
their backs were broken.
Provide plenty Of clean bedding. and
change II frequently. straw or litter
should be kept on the noors all the
time. If bedding material Ia plentiful
put It on several inches thick It will
help to keep the ducks comfortable,
and also keep tho hoors clean, thus
serving a double purpose. Never pick
ducks In cold weather, nor during tbs
laying season.
