New York, June 19-Dan Cupid is
playing to a double header almost
every day since the inaugural of the
bridal month. The usual assortment
of brides is on hand. Tall ones,
short ones, thin ones. and fat ones,
each grasping tightly the hand Of
her choice for life companion,
smiling brightly out of the long
line. The seven clerks in the mar
riage bureau Office are writing their
heads off to keep up with the profess
sion, which has been increasing
each day since June was ushered in.
Garlic Aids Pickpockets
When you are here look out for
the man who has the smell of garlic
on his breath. According to the
gum shoe" men, the dips" have
suddenly become fond of the Italian
favorite vegetable which they have
discovered is great aid in plying
their trade. Crowded subway trains
are the working places for pick
pockets. With the aroma of garlic
on their breath they stand in front
of a man with unbuttoned coat and
breathe in his face. The passenger
makes an ugly face and is sure to put
IN his hand to cover his probosius.
Just as soon as he does the dip gets
busy and when the victim RECEIVERS
himself he is either shy his watch
or roll. It is a new trick. But the
detectives are trailing all garlic
eaters

to be real estate broker. In reality
he was dependent upon his uncle and
his principal occupation was waiting
for that benevolent old relative to
turn up his toes"

first Of May and the first of November,
on his way to stock farm further
west which he owned, Mr.. Ashe

about two weeks. Hitherto he had

forward to as . very pleasant occa-
sion.
Laura looked serious and sad when,
the first of May, just after their mar
riage, BARLEY saw his uncle pass by
his little home In an automobile with
out even looking at him. Stiff and
prim the old man sat up In the rear
seat of the machine, his stern angry
eyes fixed persistently straight ahead
of him. BARLEY sighed He had heard
Of the ill-timed boasts of Guy that "he
had got on the soft side of the old
money maker" and BARLEY knew that
Guy, with his covert sneers to grace
less companions concerning his bene-
factor and his general dissolute
career. made him unworthy of the
favors Mr. Ashe bestowed upon him.
Now the second visit of Mr.. Ashe
was anticipated along the last days of
October. Always when the time came
around Laura looked sad and wor-
ried.

At that same moment Guy Wadham
was seated in his room at the town
hotel. He looked bleareyed and
anxious as he bent over a heap of
documents and account books. Guy
was recovering from one Of his period

uncle had checked him up short Mr..
Ashe had written from q place called
Beacon. saying that he would leave
there Tuesday evening and after Q
brief stop at his home would come on
to Linden. Therefore he might pop
in on Guy at any moment.
What worried Guy was that he
might not have time to doctor up his
accounts, 50 A. to present the usual
plausible showing Of profits with
which he usually succeeded in pull
ing the wool over the eyes Of the
credulous old fellow"

Guy wired to the hotel at Beacon

up making the inquiry: HAS William

Thine was when every tire manufac-

The simplest form OF a practical
poultry house is built on the shed
roof plan. 1t faces the south and has
windows rather high up in front to sd-
NIT sunshine clear back to the roosts.
The design shown in the perspec-
tive and coor plan was worked out by
the president of the Poultry associa-
ton of New York state some twelve
or fifteen years ago. He wanted q
poultry house sixteen feet from front
to back. He was particular to have
the ends and back of the building
made alright by the use of building
paper or felt roofing and matched CELL
ing inside of good quality put on with
thick paint in the groove. He did not
care much about the outside of the
building, so long as the material was
good and well put together, but the
inside occupied his attention until he
got a practical house that gave uni
yersal satisfaction.
Along with the shed roof design and
scratching shed practice came the So
called curtain front. The size of the
curtain front area must be regulated
to suit the climate. Usually the front
sash are hung from the top of the

opening. They are hinged to swing
back and button up against the cell
ing. In extreme cold weather, some
of these glazed sash are made to close
part of the curtain front opening, but
the weather is never cold enough in
New York state to close the opening
entirely.
Other systems of ventilation were
tried and discarded one after another,
but experiments by using only thin
cotton cloth over the window OPEN
ings finally won out as being not only
the best. but the only plan whereby
the poultry house could be properly
ventilated in winter.
The scientific principles of this lit
tie poultry house are recognized as be-
ing the nearest approach to perfec-
ton of anything in the shape of a
poultry house.
The roof is low ct the back, some
of these poultry houses being not
more than three feet high at the north
side and about seven feet in front.
Old-fashioned poultry houses were
built for the convenience of the atten-
dant. Modern poultrymen have an
idea that a poultry house should be
built to accommodate the fowls and as
they are not especially high headed,
a low ceiling will keep them warm
and work out better in practice than
when the building is constructed with
more headroom. Poultry do not need
great amount of cubic air space but
they do need frequent change of air.
1t was in New York state that the
lime floor was tried out, and is still
in use in just such poultry houses as
this. The whole ground space is Gov
cred with Stacked lime instead of con
crete. because lime is softer and wears
tie claws less, at the same time sani-
tary conditions are just as good. In
wcll-regulated poultry house straw
is spread all over the floor &c a denth

Generally speaking, thrift is not

the maximum of effective accomplish

it makes a change from the oyster
shell, which is the common lime sup
ply used in the eastern states.
Every good poultry house has con-
crete foundation wall extending all
the way around. Concrete is the only
satisfactory underpinning for poul-
try house for the reasons that it is
permanent and it is positive prctec-
ton against rodents and vermin. Elk

should be whitewashed to fill all the
little cracks and crevices. The whole
interior of the house needs whitewash-
