MANS FRIEND, THE DOG.

TlIE brain of dog is more like that
of a man than that of any other
animal, says DR.. S. X. Johnson,
head of the New York Veterinary Col
lege, and the more he learns about dogs
the more he says he is impressed with
the belief that we are just beginning ~
understand them. He even goes so far
as to infer that the dogs may have
souls. When one considers the remark
able intelligence of the dog the ques-
tion naturally arises as to why we
should deny that they do have a soul.
He is the best friend man can have.
He never finds fault with his master and
will suffer all the privations of his male
companion, and, no matter how badly
treated, will welcome his master when
the latter returns to his home.

strated can. be made palatable when
mixed with corn meal or wheat flour.
Thus prepared, the combination contains
twice as much digestible protein as beef
flank. three times as much as eggs and
twice as much as mutton,
Cottonseed meal is also very rich in
fat. having twice the fuel value of eggs
and one half more than beef loin or
mutton. 1t is thus an excellent meat
substitute, as pound Of protein in cot
tonseed form costs only 5 cents, while
in steak form it costs 73 cents, and as
eggs $l.06 The time will come when
cottonseed compounds will be retailed in
the grocery stores as much as some OF
the present breakfast foods, and per-
haps to greater extent because OF its
greater food value.

Inventions and Appliances

while the other is designed to oppose u
definite and uniform resistance to the
action of the muscles. In the first ma
chine the flywheel is connected with a
small dynamo, so that the user, while
getting good exercise out of it, is at the
same time storing up electrical energy
in a storage battery, which can be used
for lighting or other domestic purposes.
This machine comes in two types, one
having a battery of 12 volts and 12 am
peres, and the other, designed for
stronger persons, having battery of l2
volts and 25 amperes. 1t takes about
an hour to charge the battery, which is
capable of operating small metallic
filament lamps. By means of dyna
mometer connected to the second ma
chine. the exact resistance that is ad-
visable in view of the condition of the
muscles and state of health of the user,
may be determined, and this machine is
to be used for graduated exercise under
the instructions of physician. This
machine is also supplied with measuring
instruments which record the rate of re
volution of the pedals and give full data
as to the amount of energy expended by
the user.

MANY MODERN FARM HOMES.

FRT 1TH present day inventions it is
VIZ quite possible and at compare
lively small cost for the Farm
Home to be made completely modern.
Many of the up-to-date farmers are do
ing this very thing. They are installing
water pressure system, which fur
nishes water under sufficient pressure
to not only supply it to any part OF
the house or barn where needed, but
to be of inestmable service in case OF
fire.
The air tight tank in which the pres
sure is stored can be placed anywhere
about the premises. A small gasoline
engine to furnish the air pressure is all
that is needed Water can be forced
from the source of supply fresh and

CLEANLINESS IN sICKRooM.

M EVER leave food in the room, and
IL in serving meals place small por-

diet with the patient. If frequently
changed traycloths are not convenient,
use crepe paper napkins. Cleanliness
is an inviolable sickroom rule. Keep the
bedding smoothed and the pillows
turned without annoying the patient
There is danger line between restful
attention and solicitude. Fresh all

ideal condition, and keep as close tc
that as circumstances permit.

SAFE HEATER FOR GARAGES.

THE advent of cold weather brings
with it grief for the owner of an
auto who has not yet brought him
self to see the economy of heating his
garage. There has been put on the mar
ket recently safety garage heater
which is built on the principle of the
miners lamp, and cannot explode even
when gasoline fumes are heavy in the
garage. Either artificial or natural gas
may be used in this heater, which is
only in. wide, SO in. high and 40 in.
long. 1t is mounted against the wall
on brackets, warm air is discharged at
the top and the sides do not get hot at
all. An auto may be placed right next
to it without danger Of blistering. A
pilot light which never goes out takes
care of the heater, and all the garage
owner has to do is to turn the gas valve
for more heat. 1t is economical in oper
alton and affords protection from win
ter troubles, such as frozen radiators
and water jackets, gummy oil and start
ing difficulties.

Il SHOESTRING that can be laced
~ with one hand and does not need

an ingenious French inventor. At the
lower end this string has small eyelet
which permits the making of a loop
through the first eyelet of the shoe.
After lacing the shoe to the top and
pulling it tight, the upper end is adjust
ed to the right length by means of a
diminutive buckle to which is attached
a spring having ring on the end. The
string is fastened by slipping the ring
over the topmost hook.

Sleger Crook received by express last week a fine registered Duroc hog. It cost him $36. He had one that he got premium at the fair, but he wanted better one for next year.

SAYS STORY WAS INCORRECT

Local Manager G. w. San1mons of the Southwestern Telegraph and Tele- phone Company stated today that the story printed in the Log Cabin Dem- oc-at to the effect that the telephones had been removed from the freight and passenger stations was incorrect. The phones have not been taken out, he states, and connections with them will te given to any local subscriber, but on account of the railroad being delinquent in settling its bills, calls made from the station are not answered. The rule of the telephone company, MT, Sammons says, is to give five days ''inwa~d service to de- linquent telephones, after notice of continuance of service has been given.

Browns only hope is to be named
as a compromise candidate, and Of
this there is little probability. John
NJ. Hart of Roanoke is to be nomlna-
ted for this position either today or
very shortly. It is rumored that the
opposition to him by the senator's is
slowly diminishing, and that there
may not be as strong opposition to his
confirmation as was expected. This is
chiefly due to the fact that the Presl-
dent is going to give senator's the
other FIVE of the six appointments.

LEGISLATURE END
Following Usual Formal
ties Legislature of 1914
Adjourns.
ALL BILLS ENROLLED.
Governor Signs Many Bills, One for
Civil and Police Justice for the City
OF Alexandria.

Richmond, March 21.-With none
of the enthusiasm and tumult that
marked the actual end of the 1914
General Assembly last Saturday
night, the Legislature was formal
ly dissolved yesterday afternoon
with two Senator's, the Lieutenant
Governor, four Delegates and the
Speaker of the House present. Since
Saturday the General Assembly has
officially been in session under res
olution extending the sixty-day ses-
sion six days. There has never
been more than a bare handful Of
legislator on hand and, of course, no
legislation has been attempted, but
the Assembly in that way complied
with the requirements of the Con-
stitution.
The Constitution requires that
bills passed by the General Assem-
bly, shall be enrolled and signed by
the Lieutenant Governor and the
Speaker of the House during the
session" Before they can be signed
the bills must be enrolled, which re-
quires time and labor. Some 200
bills were rushed through the Leg
:islature in the last three days of the
active session, and in order that they
might be signed during the ses-
sion," the session was .nominallv ex-
tcnded.
Only Senator Earman and Senator
Cannon occupied seats in the Senate
chamber yesterday afternoon at 6
o'clock when the Lieutenant-Gover-
nor called the last session of the
Senate to order. Senate Librarian
Jeter acted the part of clerk and
read the titles Of the bills enrolled
and ready for signature, while the
sergeant-at-arms raped for quiet,
and hungry reporter, commissioned
to be in at the death, formed the
audience.
3 There was no roll cali in the House
when Speaker Cox called its last
session to order, and only Delegates
Hobson, Gurn and Toney, of, Rich
mond, and Oliver, Of Fairfax, were
there to make up the formal session.
As soon as Speaker Cox signed all
the enrolled bills a committee was
sent to notify the Senate that the
House had completed its labors. Inc
session of 1914 was thereupon ad-
iourned, and the General Assem-
.blv" dissolved itself into commit
tee to wait upon Governor Stuart.
A number of bills received the
SIGNATURE of Governor Stuart yester-
day, among them one providing
civil and police justice for Newport
News and Alexandria.
