BelIaerent Hospitality.

The darkey's proneness to big
words and his inability to get them in
the right place are well known. Uncle
lube was an old family servant in the
home Of Mr.. Wayne. That gentleman
was enlarging his house, and when a
passerby casually remarked upon that
fact to the old negro, he replied: Eyes,
sab, Mars Wayne's a.creasln out. He's
a-bulldin' a new condition to his house
80 dat he can entertain with more hos
tility."

A good way In which to keep plants
fresh without watering them when the
house must be closed is to take all the
plants to the cellar or some other
cold place and set them In tubs, with
an ordinary brick under each flower

water to cover the bricks. II is best

For The Times Children
Just Before It's Bedtime
DRusIELA AND THE BABY DOLL.

OR a long. time after the baby
- doll came at Christmas time
DrusiIla did not find much time
to talk to Bobby Jones. But one
night he heard his name called. and out
he came from his box wfth a bound that
almost landed him on the foor.
II thought we would never have any
more of our nice chats" said Bobby;
''aIl your time seemed to be taken up
with the care Of the baby doll.
''why. where 70 she?" he asked. see
ing that her. little bed was empty.
THAT Is what I want to tell YOU
about" said Drusilla. "she met with a
terrible accident today. and IT was all
the fault Of that nurse. too. You see.
always hold the baby doll IN one arm
when we were riding but that nurse
thought did not hold her tight enough.
SO she put pin through my hand and
pinned 1t to the dolls dress.
when my little mother saw the pin
she began to cry and said she would
not have me hurt her, and that nurse
had to take out the pin Then. instead
Of tucking the baby doll in beside me AZ
she should, she left her right on the
edge of the e1rriage, ana she Kept 7e1ld-
ing away from me until at last she fed
out and dropped on the sidewalk.
Before anyone could rescue her q
dog bounded toward US and caught the
baby doll In his mouth and ran away
shaking the baby as hard as he could.
''The nurse called to him and two
little boys ran after him, which made
the dog run faster than before
Don't cry, said that nurse to my
little mother. ~
II am not going to cry" replies my
little mother. II am just glad 1t was
not my Drusilla that fell out and that
horrid dog ran on with"
1T had better have been that old doll
than your new one said that nurse. Il
am sure your mother will scold-"
mo, she WON'T said my little moth
er, "she win be just as glad as I am
that Drusilla is safe cause she don't
like me to feel sorry. and I should II
my Drusilla had been carried OF. I
guess / will carry her. home in my arms
so to be sure she will not fall out and
dog get her."
So that nurse had to wheel the car
riage all the way home while was car
ried in the arms Of my little mother.
"But what became Of the baby doll?'

Dinner and Restaurant Scenes
With Real Food That Makes

ONT go to see THE Governors
Lady" the new Elliott-Belasco
play at the National Theater
next week, unless you fortify
yourself beforehand with good sub
stantial meal.
There is a reason.
Y4I will never get by the scene In
which the Governor and his Lady have
their lamb stew luncheon unless You
have dined well, for the odor Of the
really and truly lamb stew which Mary
Slade sets before her husband in this
scene will make you rise right out Of
your seat and HE yourself to the near
est cafe to indulge in something that
smells equally appetizing.
How would you feel il you were
forced to eat such a lamb stew every
night In the week except Sunday, and
on wednesday and Saturday after
moons? That Is what Emmett Corrf-
gan does in this new play. According
to Mr. Corrigan he doesn't tire Of 1t,
either. Anyone who doesn't believe 1t
is the real thing can prove that there is
no fake about II by getting seat down
close 10 the orchestra while this play is

aroma that arises from the big tureen,
as Mary Slade takes the cover from 1t,
and the steam arises bringing with 1t
! a delicious odor, is enough to convince
anybody.
Restaurant Scene
Truly Belasoesque.
The eats in "The Governors Lady
| are not the least important feature of
| this remarkable play. Mr.. Belasco' s
stage meals have long been famous, but
in the culinary department of the pres
ent production he has broker his own
record. This IS true not only of the
! lamb stew scene, but in the Child's res
| taurart scene, which for realism is the
| capstone of the Belasco art of produc-
| ton.
Never has an audience witnessed the
eating ard serving of such an appetiz-
| ing dinner as that cooked and dished up
by Mary Slade for her liege lord. and
Fever the proverbial route to a man s
heart more quickly traversed than is
Daniel Slade's as the result thereof. II
is such a plain dinner too, as plain and
homeEke as the little woman who serves

would put aside on that account. Moth.

Keen IN. Good Brood Sow.

It is strange that farmer will keep
the good brood mare from year to year
and at the same time put his good
brood SOW into the fattening pen and
send her OF to market as soon as she
Is fat enough to so. Thus the good
brood SOW is often sacrificed, while the
gilt, untried as brood SOW, takes her
place. This is a mistake. When q
SOW proves to be good sucker and
careful mother she should be retained.
especially If she Is prolific. With such
SOW the farmer is reasonably assur-
ed of a strong, healthy litter Of pigs
that will grow into profitable hogs. "A
gilt may prove poor sucker. overlap
her brood, while four or five is often
the number of her brood. So with the
young gilt for brood sow the pig
proposition on the farm Is very I'M
certain one. II a sow proves to be a
good breeder from the start she should
be retained, for 1t Is reasonable to ex-
pect that she will get better each year.
And It is a fact that older sOws bring
healthier, stronger pigs and q greater
number of them with less danger OF
trouble of any kind at narrowing time.
