GOOD RULES FOR CHILDREN
Think Three Times Before You Speak and Pronounce All Words Clearly
 and Distinctly.

These rules, handed down by some body's grandmother, are good ones for our boys and girls to remember;
 Always look at the person to whom you speak When you are addressed, look straight at the person who speaks to you. Do not forget this.
 Speak your words plainly; do not mutter or humble. If words are worth saying, they are worth pronouneing distinctly and clearly
 Do not say disagreeable things If you have nothing pleasant to say. keep silent.
 A fourth is-and oh. children, re- member it all your lives-think three times before you speak once.
 Have you something to do that you find hard and would prefer not to do? Then listen to wise old grandmother. Do the hard thing first and get 1t over with. If you have done wrong. go and confess it. If your lesson is tough, master 1t. If the garden is to be weeded, weed 1t first and play after ward. Do first the things you don't like to do. and then, with a clear con science, try the rest

Why the story told by this simple country girl in the Pullman brought deaTs to Miss Agnes Dare's syes the latter could not imagine. It was only after she knew how deeply she was moved that sheldiscovered the reason. lt was her girihoud story over again.
 It Is because Miss Dare is so. we'll Known that T.have called her by this nom de plume. Her married life has been presented to the attention of .scandalloving readers on the front pages of the most popular journals not once or twice. but at,Aeast ten times- And if Miss Dare has been more sfnned against than sinning, at any rate she has paid ins reputation the price of her immense success.
 For when an actress overahadows her company and eats into the box of flee receipts moro than any other item of expense, it is success, as people use the term.
 Just now she travelling alone across the continent to. open in Los Angeles, thankful enough for 1he brief respite from popularity which enabled her to assume sher real naxne. But flor us she is still Miss Dare
 And this simple country girl had got ion with somerman whose faoe Miss Dare had not seen at Fort Tysm, and she was travelling to Denver Miss Dare, seeing thatsshe was distre essed, had sat beside her and the girl had lit. ftle by little told her the who3e story.
 She was raneheEs daughter. and 1t was the old tale of a monotonoustfarm life with no distraction, and the brill liant actor whose fancy she had caught while his troupe played two nights at the county capital.

desperate lloxe to her, fand the country girl was wholly eenthrailed and thought Clarence the most wonderful man in the world. And they were to be mar Tied at Denwer. Wasn't it a wonderful romaneei AnE her old father aand mother still believed that she war vis- iting the friend at Fort Tyson, and she would be married long before they knew anything about it.
 Only-well, Clarence had met some cronies on the train, members of the company from which he had resigned in order to be married. Miss Dare could not help smiling 6 little at that, for the idea of an actor throwing up his position In the middle of tour to be married suddenly was quaintly amusing to her. Hut when she looked at the girls face she laughed no longer.
 Yes, Clarence had met these friends of his, and he had told her to sit still and not to speak to anyone, and she knew that she was doing very wrong to disobey him and talk as she was talking now. Bnt Clarence had some important business affairs to settle in the end car. he said And when. after an hours obedience. the girl had gone timidly back to the end car to look 1or Clarence she found him drinking.
 Yes. that was why she was laughing and crying alternately Clarence haa not seen her, but she had seen him drinking, and-well. he was acting like drunken tramp that had once come to the ranch house and frightened ;her during ser fathers absence.
 Then Miss Dare found that there were tears in her eyes too Her mind went back fox nearly twenty years to a little farm house in Iowa. and an old father and mother. and travelling troupe, and a man. We'll, ste had discovered about his marriage long afterward. And 1t was years since he had crossed her life. He must be forty now. She would know him If they were to meet, but thank heaven. that had been spared her. If she had met him she could not imagine what she would have done.
 She took the girls hand between her own and began talking to her Was she sure that she loved him and that Clarence loved her? And was she sure thst he was a worthy man? Then, if that were really SC, why had he not gone Go see her fabner and mother?
 But my fathes- would never set me marry an actor" exclaimed the girl You know, we folks have strange ideas out on the ranches" And Clarence had been the first to explain to her the impossibility of that.
 Then Miss Dare began explaining her, views until she saw the scared look that came in the girls face; then she tried to console her. And just then. happening to look ap, she saw somebody at the end of the car, walk ing rather indirectly. and hastily she excused herself and hurried toward him.
 She knew him at once, and she knew now that their meeting had been mercifully postponed until she could see him under just such conditions as should lend her strength to face him She took him by the arm and swung him around. The end of the car was empty and nobody noticed.

THE SELECTION OF A CREAM
 SEPARATOR
By T. F. 'wlLLoueHBy of the I HG Service
 Bureau

By T. F. 'WILLoueBBY of the | HG Service
 The selection of a separator is not a difficult matter if the farmer will bear in mind few simple facts.
 Cream and skim milk are separated in abe cream separator by the action of centrifugal force. Centrifugal force is a farce ,exerted outward from the center of the separator bowl and is produced by revolving the bowl at a high rate of speed. Just what the action of centrifugal force is can be best explained by a simple and often used illustration.
 When a ball attached to the end of a string is swung around in a circle, the ball. because of it's weight, will exert an outward pull. The forcs exerted on the ball, which makes it try to get away from the central point around which il is whiTling, Is centri- fugal force. When whole milk enters the separator bowl ii is acted upon by centrifugal force and the heavy milk solids are thrown te the outer wall of the bowl. The butter fat, which is the lightest part of milk, is not so strongly affected, and gathers near the center of the bowl where 1t mixes with small amount of skim .nth.k and forms cream.
Putnam patriot., 1913-03-07

The amount of centrifugal force exerted outward from the center on the milk in a separator bowl is deter mined by the speed and diameter of the bowl As the diameter of the bowl is decreased the speed at which it is reyolved must be increased or there will be loss of centrifugal force
 This can also be illustrated by swinging ball attached to the end of a string in a circle. The greater the length of the string, the greater the pull exerted AS the string is short ened, it will be noticed that the pull it exerts decreases unless the speed at which it is whirled is increased. Therefore. in a bowl, which has com ,paratively large diameter, the maxi mum centrifugal force is secured without running the bowl at an ex- aessively high rate of speed ThiI means greater durability because it reduces the strain upon the operating mechanism.
 Centrifugal force is what causes separation in all cream separatoi bow ls but there are several conditions which affect the thoroughness of its work. The first separator bowls made were iallow and centrifugal force was required 10 act upon the milk e1 masse. It was necessary that these bowls be fevolyed al an excessively nigh rate ssi sf;s-,-al u insure sufficient centrifugal force being developed 10 force the milk solids. other than but ter fat. through the thick wall Of milk to the outer edge of the bowl Fur thermore, Lle results were uncertains
