of those neighborhoods where WIFE
beating is the king of indoor sports,
and, with many apt quotations OF
poetry, had essayed to cheer the
weeping wife, whose countenance, be-
fitting one who engages in such royal
sport, was rapidly becoming purple.
There were half dozen children in
the room. ranging from six weeks to
ten years, and the sight was one that
made Daysey Mayme contented with
spinsterhood.
The husband, the woman explained
as she wept, beat her every day, and
never earned cent. The story
aroused Daysey Mayme's indignation
Il wouldn't let man treat me that
way" she said In burst o. wrath.
The woman paused in her weeping.
Pushing the struggling locks from
eyes that we're fast swelling shut, she
asked.
Have you a husband ?"--to which

Poultry Pointers

Mild, spring-like weather condi-
tions invariably effect a marked diff
ference in egg production. The hen
Is very much like a plant; she re-
spends to warmth, starting to lay at
the first signs of climatic geniality.
The great thing then is to keep her
moving in that direction. A generous
diet naturally goes long way, and
a little epice of an innocuous nature
In the soft food helps matters consid-
erably. 1t must be Of kind. how
ever, that while stimulating, does
not irritate. Spices containing irri-
tants, such as cayenne, capsicum
and other super heating ingredients,
are best left alone.
Greenstuff, which in some form is
most essential to laying fowls, is
now somewhat scarce. There are
plenty Of roots. however, such as
swedes, mangolds and turnips, that
may be used. The birds will appre-
ciate them split in halves and given
raw, or, better still, cooked and in
corporated with meal and middlings
in the form Of a mash. Another ex-
cellent makeshift Is sprouted grain
preferably oats.

subjected to heat, such as that of a
garden frame, having been previously
covered with sacking to conserve the
shoots, which are greatly relished by
the fowls, and which constitute a
food well calculated to increase tho
output of eggs.
One tendency Of spices that contain
pungent ingredients is to irritate the
egg-producing organs, so that the eggs
can not be retained sufficiently long TO
enable perfect shells to be formed,
Hence the soft-shelled egg. which so
frequently puzzles poultry keepers. who
are at some pains to provide their fowls
with shell-forming materials.
The approach OF mllder weather
should see the total exclusion OF maize
from the daily menu. In cold weather
this grain, given in moderation, is good
but Il Is much too heating and fatten-
ing TO use at other periods Wheat al

Lieutenant General Sir R. S, 8. Ba-

grewsome, relic Of the Ashanti expe-
dition Of 1896 1t is the brass bowl
used to receive the heads Of the I'M

The bowl. which resembles an ordi-
nary bathtub in appearance and size,
is about FIVE feet in diameter On the
rim are four small lions, rather clev-
erly modelled and a number Of KNOBS,
evidently intended as an ornamental
ton. There is. a gap in the continul-

space to the victim to insert his neck

mother has prepared, has retired to
her room that she may not be an

mothers broom, nor have her nerves
racked by the clatter Of pans and
dishes, and there has given way to
moods of deep depression.
1t is then when she feels her USE

she dreams that life must mean more

absorbed in listening to a cry from
the wilderness for help that she grows
deaf to the cry for help from the
