Real rraaedx of the STAGE.

A beautiful actress, Fraulein Oar
mer, was killed by accident recently,
while playing at the Theater of Va
rieties at Berne, Switzerland. The last
act of the comedy, THE Pride of the
Third Company" was coming to an
end when Fraulein Darmer fell
through a defective stage trap to a
distance of six feet and fractured her
skull The actress was carried uncon-
scious to her room and a doctor was
in prompt attendance, but the case
was beyond his help, and as the cur
tain fell on the comedy on the stage
the girl died. Neither the members of
the company who took the final CALI
nor the public, who wondered why the
actress did not appear, had the slight
est idea of the tragedy that had oc-
Cured behind the scenes.

Sporting Instinct Aroused.

The street-corner orator had gath
cred around him a group of urchins.
Why they listened so attentively he
didn't understand; nor probably did
they know themselves. Simply moth
ing doing. But the orator took full
advantage Of his opportunity and de-
livered an improving lecture on the
value of kindness to dumb animals. At
the end he sought for some illustra-
tion to point the moral and adorn the
tale. 1t was there at hand. Across
the way walked a lady, leading two
little dogs in leash. The one was black
and the other white. Now" exclaimed
the tub-thumper, after what have
said, supposing those two dear little
dogs were to start fighting, what
would be the first thing you would
doe" No answer came at first; but
one little arab turned to look at the
dogs critically and thoughtfully. We'll

PARIS GREEN USED
IN SUMMER GARDEN
Much Can Be Saved by the Ju-
dicious Use of the Poison
for Killing Insects.

At this time of the year summer
garden crops are growing and much
can be saved by the judicious use of
paris green for killing noxious in
sects. Paris green is strong poison
and insects are killed with 1t. Suck.
ing insects such as the true bugs and
plant lice are not killed by poisons
but by sprays that blister their bodies
or by substances that stop up their
breathing pores.
When used as a spray the paris
green should first be made into a
thick paste by adding a little water
and then adding the proper quantity
of water. 1t is always advisable to
add also twice the weight of poison
of fresh Stacked lime in order to rem.
der insoluble any free arsenic that
may be present and so prevent burn
ing of foliage. The poison Is used
in an insoluble form, or as nearly 80
as 1t is possible to render it, hence
the water must be kept thoroughly
agitated In order that the power may
remain perfectly suspended in the
liquid. If the powder is allowed to
settle at the bottom of the vessel that
portion will be much concentrated
and likely to burn the plants, while
the top liquid will have very little
value as an insecticide.
In making the spraying mixture use
about one-half pound Of paris green
and one pound of lime to so gallons
of water In spraying potatoes, for
instance, which are frequently affect
ed with blight or fungous disease, one
pound of paris green is added to 80
gallons of Bordeaux mixture. Bor.
deaux mixture is made by dissolving
four pounds of copper sulphate and
five pounds of water. These two mix
lures work well together, killing in
sects and fungous diseases at the
same time and hence a saving Of la
Dor in spraying.
Paris green may be busted on plants
with cheesecloth bags or ordinary
powder bellows. 1t may be applied
either pure or diluted, but 1t is best
to dilute with twenty to one hundred
parts of lime, air Stacked or land plas-
ter, before applying, according to the
nature of the plants treated. Even
weaker solutions should be used
where the parts busted are to be used
for food In the treatment of cabbage
use but one ounce of the poison to
ten pounds of lime or plaster.

AWoKE THE HUNTER INSTINCT
Alert Traveller Evidently Imagined
Providence Had Thown "Game''
Within His Reach.

Gilbert Parker, the English author,
tells of an English gentleman, who re-
Gently came to this country to visit
some friends in California. "In COM
mon with most travellers he supposed
game was plentiful everywhere in that
state, so he carried with him the nee
essary guns and ammunition.
"As his train neared San Bernard
ino-just before making the noun
tain climb-there was a delay Sew
eral hours passed, and still the train
remained stationary; and our traveller
friend grew restive, and sought the
porter of the Pullman car to ascertain
the cause of the delay.
1t seems that in mounting the
grade freight train had broken apart,
the rear portion having descended the
grade and blocked the track. The por.
ter informed him of the accident to
the freight train, and said, There is a
caboose on the track
Immediately the hunter instinct
was awakened; Fastening to his berth
he procured his gun and started for
the door saying:

FURNISHED BOND OF AMITY
Discounted "Good Samaritan" the Un-
willing Means of Bringing Rival
Humorists Together.

Once upon time two humorists
dwelt in the same small town and both
contributed to the Sunday Star AS
was but natural, they became wildly
jealous of each other, and when one
would win a little more prominence
than his fellow the other would have
seven kinds of fits. Your Pleasant
Valley Items give me pain!" quoth
one. Your prose rhymes make me
ILL" retorted the other. AS they we're
about to come to blows there ap-
peared on the scene Good Samaritan
and to him they appealed. Which Of
us is the funnier?" they asked. Meth
erl" was the prompt reply. You are
both as unfunny as wart hogs, and as
tiresome as trip across the Sahara"
Thereat they both set upon the gen.
tleman from Samaria and beat him
full sore, and dwelt together in amity
forever after.
Moral: From this we should learn
that while humorists delight in quar-
reling among themselves, they fire.

acre will yield In fact all acre of
land worth IS per acre will furnish
enough hay to feed at least 10 head
of sheep. Cost per head so cents.
If we allow one-half of oats daily
during the months of February.
March and April, before the ewes are
on pasture, while sucking lambs, the
cost will be 45 cents at the price of
oats at present. In conclusion 1t may
be safely said that the cost of main
tanning herding eve in the corn-belt
farm would be about s2.25, exclusive
of the labor involved, which the good
farmer is glad to give in exchange for
the manure he secures.
If the flock gives a 1O-pound clip,
which any well-managed flock should
do, it is readily apparent that the
fleece will pay for the Sleeps keep.
In good Shropshire flocks the ewes
raise an average of from one and one
quarter to one and one-half lamb per
eve. Place 1t conservatively at one
lamb per eve, worth at weaving time
from Sc to $S, which may be said to
be the profit for one eve. OF course,
there are losses in the eve flock, that
will cut down the profits, ewes die and
must be replaced by younger ewes.
Some age and lambs must be supplied
in their place, but even then the good
shepherd can count on profit of from
$4 to S. for every eve kept.
Since 1t requires two acres of land
for eight sheep, the income per acre
from the sheep would be about $40
net. A very fair income compared
with that even to be made from the
cultivation of corn.
Sheep raising has the additional ad
vantage of involving less labor than
does the cultivation Of soil. Then, too
the land used for the sheep becomes
daily more productive, while that Civ
en- over to corn growing becomes
poorer and poorer each year.

EXCELLENT HINTS
DURING HAY TIME
Make All Necessary Preparations
Before Work Actually Starts
Take Care of Tools.
fBy M. covERDELLo

Don't begin haying and make prepa-
rations afterward.
See that every hay tool is In prime
working order and good repair.
Fill every oil cup and bearing and
wipe OF before attempting to turn a
wheel. :,
It is only fair that the household
help be as plentiful and efficient as is
the help in the fields.
A sunshade for the driver while
moving may cause some unkind' re-
marks, but 1t was never known to
cause a sunstroke.
Lay In full supply Of repairs now;
don't wait until the breakage occurs
and stops a dollar-a-minute haying
crew while you drive to town for re-
pairs.
Don't buy repair rake-teeth already
shaped up when you can saw out two
of them yourself from 2 by 6, and
save at least one-half what you would
be charged for the shaped teeth.
Good, keen sickles leave smooth
mown meadow; save all the grass;
wear the machine out less than dull
sickles, and greatly tighten the load
of the teams.
A water Jug with the Juice of a
lemon or two squeezed into 1t, beats
rany of the so-called stimulants many
farmers are coming to make use of
every year during the hay harvest.
The lemon juice diminishes the
thirst, while the stimulants increase 1t.
A damp handkerchief worn in the
crown of the hat adds to ones COM
fort and guards against sunstroke.
Rushing the team and the men is a
most successful plan for running up
a big repair bill or a dangerous sun
stroke
Make a clean finish of the business
while you are about it, See that all
the stacks are well topped and stand
Ing up straight when the work is done,
then run three good wires around
every stack-yard and save doing it
when you turn in on the meadow for
fall pasturage.
This is also the best time you'll ever
have for putting away the hay tools.
The intense hot weather following the
hay harvest knocks out as much ma
chinery as the work just finished;
then the damp fall weather puts a
rusty coat on it which about ruins it.

HOW HE TURNED THE TRICK
After This, Mr.. Mordecai Hammerfest
Must Be Credited With Knowing
Thing or Two.

Mrs. Mordecai Hammerfest turned
pale as her husband entered the din

"Mordy!" she gasped. do you
don't you feel well?"
Perfectly" he replied in seeming
surprise.
"But-but, you are in your-your
underduds!"
Tell me something / don't know.

She passed the butter, remarking
nervously, But, Mordy, dear, as you

We'll, what Of It, Your hair is in
curl papers, isn't it?"
"Why-y-yes.
And you have on q wrapper,
haven't your"
Yes"
Very well, then"
And he went on eating his break
fast in silence except when he asked
her to pass the butter. Then he went
upstairs and finished dressing, and the
next morning and on succeeding morn
ings she reported for breakfast in reg
ular clothes.
