or little herself, she wanted a big
puddle. She was quite satisfied in her
own mind that no puddle would be SO
big that she couldn't become a frog
of considerable size in it.
Now, as her restless brain and soul
CamOred for higher goals and a wider
field, the thought of SHADES millions,
SHADES dominating, f0rceful personal
ity, SHADES reputation for sweeping
everything before him, SHADES prob
able goVernorship flashed through her
mind like a burning streak of electric
lire. With him, with his weapons,
what career lay before a woman!
Just as suddenly she found herself
wondering what sort of a woman had
been a mate to this man for so many
years. She was conscious of poign-
ant pang of envy-jealousy almost
against this woman who had the OPP
portunity which was denied her.
well, what do you think of your
own country, now you're back?" she
heard SHADES voice saying. Seem
big to you?"
ooh, I like Washington" she said,
bringing herself back to the CONVEX
sation with difficulty.
Her father, noticing her abstrac-
ton, remarked indulgently: She likes
Washington, Slade. She likes the
East, but she doesn't tell it to every
body on account of fathers votes.

this is fathers Waterloo. He's been
a great disappointment to me. That's
the worst of parents. We children
never know how they're going to turn
out. If father had only listened to
me it would have been Washington
for him-Washingto for me. But he
wouldn't cross the Delaware. He
wouldn't leave the West. If there'd
only been a drop of Napoleon in ia
ther," she concluded with a sudden
burst of vehemence.
"Napoleon!" repeated the senator
yes, Napoleon. He got what he
wanted, and nothing ever stood in his
path. l just love the way he rode

But he was right" she continued ]
earnestly, as if she were making a
plea for something that lay very close .
to her own heart why should we
let anyone hold us back? l wouldn't .
But mother didn't want to leave the .
West so father stuck to his town and .
his friends and his state. Now he
stands in the background and boosts
other men politically.
He wants to boost you" she added,
suddenly.
Letting out secrets" her father &C
cused, playfully.
But Katherine was never more Sc
rious. You're his dark horse" she
persisted.
You're a lucky man, senator"
Slade broke in, as he watched Kath-
crime admiringly. You're a lucky
man to have a charming young woman

behind some man and watching him

Why, child alive, you do things

CLEAN EGGS.

When eggs are being produced for
market purposes, it is well to make a
point of keeping the nests clean. Dirty
eggs are in class by themselves, and
do not command as large price as the
clean ones. Where straw is. used for
nesting material, see that it is clean
and bright. The nests should be cleaned
out now and then and sprayed with
some dsinfectant. The nests should be
so covered that the hens cannot stand
on the sides and dirty the straw in the
nests.
If a slanting cover is placed over the
nests it will do away with all roosting
on the edges of the nest boxes. The
eggs should also be graded according
to size. The pullet eggs which will be
Forthcoming at this time of year should
not be placed in with the regulars. Put
them in class by themselves and sell,
as pullet eggs. You will probably have
to take little less for the first crate
or so, but after time they will be large
enough to go in with the regular eggs.
When sending to private customers,
have the egg boxes clean, and the eggs
packed so as that they will present
good appearance when the box is
opened. There are many little quirks
to the selling of fresh eggs. that will
either mean more or less money accord
ing to the way they are handled.

been unjust and detrimental to them.
My many years of experience has
proven that the mating of all breeds
should be governed by one of the same
rules, to-wit: Standard males should
be mated to standard females. Then, if
properly ine-bred, so to IS per cent at
six months old should score 81 or more,
and no specimen should be mated that
falls below an honest 80 points. Males
should be as near standard shape as
possible, in color, a distinct blush gray
in fluff and ground color, this gray
color being combination of blue and
white, the web Of the feather should
be barred with five distinct lines of
dark blue stone color free from positive
black
This should be the color of the female
also, but if seen in the yard the male
will appear to be lighter shade, to
have more of silver gray general
plumage. While we demand this blush
gray in underfluff, we do not admit
white or "cotton black" but dis
tinct bars. The bars in the web should
result in giving us parallel lines upon
the breast and thighs. Absolute white
or positive black is defect wherever.
found in Barred Plymouth Rock
All judges should be held up to the
law. The day of black barred winners
has gone if the grand old breed is to be
kept in the front rank.
Perfect Single Mating.
I have endeavored to describe a per
feet single mating We must mate three
fourths of our stock, and if it is prop
erly done the progeny from all of them
when penned together will look even
colored and alike. At six months old
take out all that score 81, and better
sort them into four lots, the lightest in
the first lot, he second lightest in the
second lot, the practically perfect in
the third lot, and in lot four put the
darkest birds. Mate a perfect eolored
male bird with lot 2, and trifle light
er male with pen 3, and dark male
with pen l, and one of the lighter males
with pen 4, and there will be no per
eeptible difference in the best of the
progeny of each pen. All black barred
specimens, if any, should be sent to the
market or kept for table use.
If all breeders would follow this plan
the Barred Plymouth flocks throughout
the country would look very much alike.
When few generations of such mat
ings have been used we must see uni
form focks the rule Most of our breed
ers have been obliged to use the few
best birds for show purposes and then
fall back on their second best and re-
sort to extreme matings. Many have
become disgusted and discarded the
Barred Rocks. ("Breeders, let us put
the Barred Plymouth Rock where it be-
longs)" by demanding such standard
for male and female that we can show
birds from a single mating and pro
test when judges ignore the standard,
as many of them do today, and demand
that his standard Of color shall be blu
ish gray barred in five or more of dark
er blue.

bein wired to every city east of Denver,
Tubby Tobin. with his knees still shakin' in
his baggy old trousers, and the brown velvet
vest once more incasin' his manly pod,
walks down Mulberry-st. with me, free but
scared stiff.

Nor Alice! Think of it,"
