FASCINATING STRANGERS
 WHO DUpE VAIN WOMEN

Where lives the man who has not
 tried
 How n1irth can into folly glide
 And folly into sin 2.
 If all men were honorable and wo- men wise, there would be mo folly to bitterly repent Of The majority of women are good, Kome-Ioving crea- tures. This goes without saying But now and then we find a woman who does not lay aside her habits Of CO., quetry as she dons her wedding clothes. Even having a husband all her own to admire and ddoIize her does not satisfy her craving for the devotion of other men.
 Wherever she goes she casts an eager eye about to see if there are other women who look as we'll and at tract as much attention as she. Usual ly she finds more than one pair of eyes focused upon the picture of fem mine lovelinees she presents.
 Very few women enter deliberately into folly. They are most always drawn into it by slow degrees. It isn't every woman who feels bitter re- sentiment if she finds the eyes of a handsome stranger bent upon her with admiration. If she turns quickly away, that's the end of it. If she casts a peep again. and yet again to note IT pn6 1aASc1I7sl11S sserS1dlG Sr tS AS- gardinS her dntent1y, tF1e misc1nief has begun to brew. Should she see a.

EGG-LAYING CONTEST.
Remarkable Average Of More Ix Than 200 Eggs a Bird.

Although there are but three re- maining weeks of the third laying contest at Storrs. it is as yet impos- sible to predict the final winner. In the forty-second week IAncolnss Leg horns succeeded in passing the Eng fish Wyandoftes and led them by four eggs. This margin was steadily tn- creased so that in the forty third horns was leading by hfty-three eggs. Since that time however, the Eng fish birds have proved their ability to 'scone back, so that in this forty ninth week they ara only twenty-five eggs behind. Thus it can be seen, that with twenty-two days to go and twenty-five eggs to gain. it is only g. question as to whether they can out lay the Leghorns by a trifie more than an egg a day.
 Three pens, namely the two just mentioned together with the Storrs Experiment Stations sour milk pen have now passed the 2.0o0 egg marx or the remarkable average of more than 200 eggs for each individual in the pen. MerrythougIt Farms White Wyandotte hen number 152 continues to head the list of best in dividual scores. Her record is 24s which is four eggs ahead of any intii- viduaI in the contest
 The English Wyandottes proved to be the best pen for the week with a ScQIS O1 LOIIy-OA3 6S8S e1I1Q 4AA<As9~ sachusetts pen of Buff Wyandottes belonging to pr. N W. Sanborn of Holden, won second place with a yield of thirty-hve eggs while these were followed closely by A. B. Brun- dage's Rhode Island Reds from Dan bury, with thirty-four eggs to their credit. Thus it will be noted that the heavier breeds seem to be working a little harder in the home stretch. The best that the Leghorns have been able to do for the past three weeks was to tie for third place two weeks ago.
 The awards for the month of Sep tember have been announced as fol- lows Blue ribbon for first prize won by A. B. Brundage whose pen of Rhode Island Reds yielded an even 200 eggs for the month. Tom Bar ron's White Leghorns won second l place with a yield of 169 eggs and Merrythought Farms White Wyan- dottes from Columbia, won third with 166 eggs for the same period. The birds for the next contest which opens November first should be selected now. They ought to be ready Ito lay but they also should be pre-
 vented from doing this by being nov l ed to new quarters and thus have them in complete readiness to begir

TO-DAY's POEM
A DEEp AND A WORD.

A little stream had lost it's way Amid the grass and fern; A passing stranger scooped a well, Where weary men might turn; He walled it in, and hung with care A Iad1e at the brink; He thought not of the deed he did, But judged that all might drink, He passed again, and Io! the well, By summer never dried, Had cooled ten thousand parching
 tongues,
 And saved a life beside. A, nameIess man, amid a crowd That thronged the daily mart, Let fall a word of hope and love, Unstudfed, from the heart; A whisper on the tumu1t thrown, A transitory breath It raised brother from the dust, It saved a soul from death, O germi O founti o word of lovel O thought at random cast! Ye were but little at the first, But mighty at the last.
 CharIes Mackay.

Please enumerate the various times a man should lift his hat ?" ask ed John, who had just arrived at the age of eighteen and felt the respon- sibility of courteous manhood serious fly.
 "A man must raise his hat under the foIIowing circumstances: When he acknowledges woman's, bow; when recognizing c1ergynnen or dis tingushed or elderly gentlemen of his acquaintance; when walking with a woman and he salutes his friends or she salutes her friends whether they are known to him or not; when he passes a man friend who is accom- panied by a woman; when offering his seat to a woman in a public convey ance; when drawing to one side in a narrow way to allow her free pas sage; when giving any information she may ask; when restoring any thing she may have dropped; when doing her some slight service, and when a woman under his escort re- ceives some courtesy from a stran- ger," replied his father.

CHAPTER xi.
The Last RebsI KIna.


 NEAHE king was in feverish, ir.
 ritable mood all that evening,
 but he made his plans never
 theIess with infinite cunning They must get the bombs away. There must be couple of atomic hay loEries; the bombs could be hidden under the hay. Peetovitch went and came in- structing trusty servants planning and replanniag. The king and the ex king dined together; and the iexazIns talked very pleasantly of a number of subjects. All the while at the back of King Ferdinand Charles mind retted the mystery of his vanished aeroplane. There came no news Of its capture and no news Of it's success. At any moment all that power at the back ol his visitor might crurnbie sygny and vanish.
 It was past midnight when tho a<lne ! in a cloak and slouch hat that nlt equally have served 2 small farmer oE any respectable middle class man, EIip- ped out from an fnconspicuoua service gate on the eastward side of his pal= ace into the thickIy wooded garden that sIoped in a series Of terraces down to the town.

THOUSANDS ARE NOW
LEAVING CANADA,

Mnot, N. d., Sept. Walter
Bond has returned from a visit
to Edmonton and other points
in Alberta. Mr.. Bond says that
conditions are very critical in
southern Alberta from the drouth.
Thousands Of farmers are gett-
ing out Of the country the best
way they can. Some are shi hipp-
ing their effects and others are
leaving with covered wagons.
Most Of them are coming back to
the states, having learned very
dear lesson. They did not raise
enough feed for their stock and
have gotten, rid of it at sacri-
flee.
Mr.. Bond says the Canadians
are excited over the war. At Ed
monton bulletins are posted and
they are always favorable to the
allied forces. If a German opens
his mouth, half a dozen husky
Englishemn "ounce upon him,
beat him, and he usually winds
up in the calaboose Many Ger
mans are leaving Canada and
others remaining have learned to
keep very quiet.
