That there are 100000 persons In
Germany whose hearing is defective
is a statement that was made at the
first convention OF the Society for the
Protection OF the Deaf, which was
organized a few weeks ago. Franz
Bronner, an architect. presided at
the convention, which was made up Of
100 delegates.
The resolutions adopted declared
that persons who are hard Of hearing
needed more consideration than IL
usually accorded to them. II was
decided to approach theater, opera
and concert managers with the re-
quest to allot particularly good seats
to those who by producing a mem
bersh!p card OF the society could
show that their hearing was defec-
tive; also that telephone apparatus
should be attached to the seats

YOUNG PRINCES OF INDIA
Extravaganza and Luxury That Sur
round the Future Rulers of
That Eastern Land.

A sketch in st. Nicholas tells Amer
lean boys and girls, under the title of
Ills Highness the Young Rajah, 80
about the lives OF some OF the future,
rulers of India.
1T is almost impossible for an
American boy or girl to imagine the
extravaganza and luxury that sur
round some of these young princes"
says Mabel Alberta Spicer, author Of
the sketch. Servants attend them
night and day, fan them, dress them
and obey their slightest wish. If a
wind stirs while they sleep, curtains
are drawn that they may not be dis.
turbed. When they drive out, a
mounted escort accompanies them
and all the people salaam as they
pass Once when taking tea with a
rajah in his garden, | was amused to
notice that, as he moved about among
his guests, servant followed carry
Ing cup which he kept always with
in reach OF his masters hand. The
rajah would take sip OF tea. and
with perfect unconcern set his cup
down in mid air. With unfailing dex-
terity the saucer was placed under it
by the servant in time to avoid aeci-
dent. One prince had, suspended
from the ceiling, silver couch which
WAS kept gently swaying while he
slept or read Another had a beauti-
full vine-coyered arbor where artificial
rain was made to fall, while the nabob
sat under marble canopy in the cen
ter cool and refreshed, with the rest
Of the world broiling about him"

THE AID" KILLER.

The man who stops his little lad"
Is not so very wise, bedad
Because his advertisements tell
The public what he has to sell.
And if his "ad' is not on deck,
The people pass him up, by heck
And none of them will hesitate
To trade with merchants up-to-date.
To stop your "ad," we would remark,
Is just like winking in the dark
You may know what it means, but gee
Nobody else can ever see.
So do not for a moment think
That when you cut out printers ink
You're saving money on the side;
tbs merely business suicide,

On every large farm where a herd

make creditable records the search
must be more far-reaching. and the
ease with which a bull suitable to

the test single listing produced
slightly more than double listing Thu
year, however. the reverse is true
1t will undoubtedly be found. as this
test is continued, that the plot double
listed will produce more grain than
the single listed plot. When single
listing is practiced. especially when
the listing is done each year in the
same direction, there is a tendenc,
for the lister to follow the old lister
track, leaving portion OF the soil

Listing is good method Of prepar
ing Seed-hed for wheat. providing the
work is properly done. Ground can
be listed more rapidly than it can be
plowcd. thus where large acreage ri
ground is to be prepared il can ne
prepared earlier in the season by list
ing than by blowing. 1t is advisable
however, when listing is the general
practice followed, to pillow the land
occasionally. The pillow pulverizeS anC
invertS the soil more thoroughly than
the lister, and thereby puts it into
better physical condition.
