NOT THE SAME SWEET ALICE
Probably Ben Bolt Would Find It Hard
to Recognize His Sweetheart
In Modern Maid.

Oh, don't you remember sweet Alice,
Ben Bolt, when her hair was beau
tiful brown? You never in the world
would know her as she looks today
with a cane and a trouserette gown.
Her Pars-made curls are the new pur-
pie tint; when l called could scarce
trust my eyes, for she wore little
nightcap, the fastest Paris hint, with
rosebuds and pink ribbon ties.
Sweet Alice Is now on the stage,
Ben Bolt she began at the end of the
row. She smiled with delight at the
public each night. and now she's the
hit Of the show. She dances a tango
that sets them a-whirl, with dip and
a kick and a glide. You'd never be-
lieve twas the same little girl that the
song wrongly stated had died.
She's a cigarette case on the end Of
a chain, where the old fashioned one
wore fan; has fiat and maid and
Pomeranian pup; her motor is olive
and tan. And down at the theater
place where she plays, her pictures
are hung by the score, and they've
fitted slab with about thousand
electric lights and sweet Alice's name
up over the door.-Kate Masterson, In

MORE AIR NEEDED HERE.
ROY II. WAITE.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Many poultry raisers are too much
afraid their chickens will not be warm
enough. When the air gets bit
chilly they close all the doors and
pull down the windows to keep the
heat In. It's all well enough to keep
the house as warm as possible. but
when you attempt to get 1t warm by
closing it up, you introduce a factor
which is many times more detrimen-
tai to the birds. Fowls can't stand
dampness any more tnan you can, and
when you bottle up" lot OF them
in a close room the moisture they
breathe out soon fills the air and
causes damp, disagreeable house;
one that induces colds, roup. rheuma'
tism and other ailments.
If your house is like the one In the
above picture, get out your saw or
axe or maui and make a good gener'
Gus opening; one at least taking up
half the front Then cover 1t with
wire netting and hinge up muslin
curtain to let down on the .oidest
nights, If you wish. The ventilation
will then be good and the moisture
will have a chance to get out.

Scotch Not to Blame.

The harp was the Highlander's In
strument before the bagpipe. That
point was insisted upon by Scotch
man Of fifty years ago. the lord ad-
vocate of the time, who was anxious
to disclaim his country's responsible
ity for the bagpipes, and to show that
they were English, essentially Eng
lish." He appealed to Shakespeare,
who often mentions the pipes, but not
once in Macbeth" his only Scottish
drama; 1t is in Lincolnshire and York
shire that he localizes the instrument.
James Tvs accounts contain an item
for "Inglis pyparis," while our Edward
had his court pipers, and from his
time on to Elizabeth's mention Of such
officials constantly recurs. Most Eng
lishmen are thankful to have given
the pipes safe conduct across the bor-
der.-London Chronicle.

Cuttings of currants and gooseber-

would for grapes. The main point
to be looked out for Is to press the

Root cuttings of blackberries and
raspberries may be made this month

roots into pieces two or three inches
long, pack In boxes between layers OF
