But listen to me. Listen to me, my angel.
All, don't know where l am or what to
say. My brain is no mere than a flahby
balloon punctured with pins. with little
hofes OF hat-pins. Tell me about the hat
pins. Right off! No, at first. what Is 1t
that makes you believe-good God!-that
someone will return by that door? How
can you see that, all that, in a poor little
hat-pin?"
Madame, it is not a single hat-pin hole;
there are two of them"
"Two hat-pin holes?'
Yes, two. An old one and a new one.
One quite new. Why this second hole? Be-
cause the old one was judged a little too
narrow and they wished to enlarge it, and
in charging it they broke off the point Of
a hat-pin in 1t. Madame. the point is there
yet, filling up the little old hole and the
piece of metal is very sharp and very
bright"
"Ah, now 1 understand the examination
Of the hat-pins. Then it is so easy as that
to get through a door with a ~hat-pin?n
Nothing easier, especially If the panel Is
Of pine. Sometimes one happens to break
the point Of a pin in the first hole. Then
Of necessity one makes a second. In order
to the second hole. the point Of
the pin being broken, they have used the
point of a penknife, that have finished the
hole with the hat-pin. The second hole is
still nearer the bolt than the first one.
= Don't move like that, madame"
But they are going to come! They are
going to GOMEZ"
Il believe So"
But l can't understand how you can re-
main so quiet with such a certainty. Great
heavens! what proof have you that they
have not been there alreadyT'
lust an ordinary pin, madame, not a
hat-pin this time. Don't confuse the pins.
1 will show you in a little while"
He win drive me distracted with his
pins, dear light of my eyes! Bounty Of
Heaven! Gods envoy! Dear little happi-
ness-bearere
In her transport she tried to take him in
her trembling arms, but he waved her back.
She caught her breath and resumed:
did the examination of all the hat pins
tell you anythingT'
"Yes. The fifth hat-pin of Mademoiselle
Nataeha's, the one in the toaue out in the
veranda, has the tip newly broken off"
20 misery cried Matrena, crumpling In
her chair.
Rouletabille raised her.
What would you have? I have exan-
ined your own hat-pins. Do you think I
would have suspected you if L had found
one of them broken7 ] would simply have
thought that someone had used your prop
erty for an abOminable purpose. that is
all"
ooh, that is true, that Is true. Pardon
me. Mother of Christ. this boy erazes me!
He consoles me and he horrifies me. He
makes me think of such dreadful things.
and then he treasures ME. He does what
he wishes with me. What should / be-
come without him?'
And this time she succeeded in taking his
head in her two hands and kissing him
passionately. Rouletabille pushed her back
roughly.
"You keep me from seeing" he said.
She was in tears over his rebuff. She
understood now. Rouletabille during all
this conversation had not ceased to watch
through the open doors of Matrena's room
and the dr~essing-room the farther fatal door
whose brass bolt shone in the yellow light
Of the night lamp. :

clean up in one to two hours The
cost of feeding pair of pigeons
varies from 81 to $1.50 year at the
present price of grains (1914). Re-
ports from number of pigeon farms
give an average cost of $1.32.
Clear drinking water, grit, broken
oyster shell, and charcoal should be
kept before the pigeons all the time.
Salt is fed to pigeons in various
forms, and supply of this material
is generally considered essential
salt are apt to eat too much if given
Il large quantity at one time, although
fine salt is used with good success by
many careful feeders. Salt may be
fed in lump form, such as rock salt
or as fine salt moistened apd baked
into hard lump, without danger of
the pigeons eating too much. Salt
may also be fed mixed with grit,
charcoal, and oyster shell.
Pans of water should be provided
daily except during the winter and
placed in the yards of fyways. These
bath pans are usually filled in the
morning and emptied about noon
They should be used only about twice
week during the winter, but should
then be kept on the floor of the house
AS squads are reared and fed by
both of the parent birds on thick,
creamy mixture called pigeon milk,
produced in the crop of the pigeons,
it is essential that pigeons rearing
squads have a plentiful supply of
grain to insure rapid growth of the
young. Pigeons usually feed the
squads shortly after they themselves
are fed and should not be disturbed
at that time, thus making it advisable
to water them before they are fed
Care should always be taken not to
frighten or disturb pigeons or squads
any more than is absolutely nee
essary.
Information in detail concerning
SQUAD raising is given in the bulletin,
which may be had upon application
to the Editor in Chief, Division of
Publications.

Success Depends upon Special EX-
perience, Business Ability, and n
Good Steady Market

The raising of squads both as a
regular business and as side line on
farms has become so general that the
department, to meet the needs of
practical advice on this subject, has
assigned one of it's poultry special
lists to a study of this subject, and
also has obtained accurate data as to
methods from % large breeders and
from a large number of those who
keep less than 800 pigeons. The
questions to which practical replies
were received covered all phases of
the subject, from breeds that produce
the best squads to the housing, feed
ing, and general care of the pigeons.
The results of Investigations and the
information supplied by breeders are
published in Farmers Bulletin. No.
6S4, SQUAD Raising, The bulletin on
its first page, however, contains a
strong caution which in substance is
that while an annual profit of $1.50
for pair of breeders is considered
good, success in raising squads
calls for special experience, business
ability, and good steady market. 1t
points out that many successful
pigeon farms make business of SELL
ing breeding stock and are not pri-
marily interested in producing squads
for market. To quote the author,
"there have been many failures on
SQUAD plants, as the profits in this
business have frequently been greatly
overestimated and the care of stock
regarded as something very easy in
which anyone could succeed"
"Many people," the writer con-
tinues, "can keep pigeons successfully
as side issue, although this requires
constant oversight and careful atten-
ton to details. The greatest difficult

RAISING OF SQUADS

ties confronting the successful raiser
of pigeons seem to be in securing
good breeding stock and finding q
good market for the produce of a
small flock Pigeons are a profitable
source of income on general farms
where they may secure much of their
feed from the fields, provided they
are not nuisance and the loss By
shooting and by hawks, owls, and cats
is not large. They can also be raised
successfully on farms where they are
closely confined, provided the squads
can be marketed to good advantage v
Then it is pointed out that prolific
pigeons producing large squads are
commonly kept confined in pens,
which involves proper housing and a
fiyaway, or outside yard, covered
with wire. Common pigeons, allowed
their freedom, are less prolific and
produce smaller squads. A study of
New York SQUAD quotations shows
that the price per dozen for dressed
squads falls rapidly as the weight
goes down and the color departs from
white. While Prime White weighing
10 pounds to the dozen brought $3.75
per dozen in March, 1915, in New
York, 6-pound squads were not
quoted above 50 per dozen, while
$1.50 was the high price per dozen
for dark squads, and culls brought
only or 6 cents apiece. Squads
weighing s pounds to the dozen, a
fair average weight from good plants,
bring various prices about as follows
Throughout the year, according to the
wholesale quotations in New York:
February, $4; March and April,
$3.25; May and June, $2.75; August,
$3.50; December, $3.50. A summary
of reports from % large-scale SQUAD
farms showed an average weight of 8
pounds to the dozen and an average
price of $3.43 for the year. 1t must
be remembered, however, that the
squads were produced definitely to
meet the exact demands of the

GUNS ARE SHORT LIVED.
Their Incessant Firing Would Soon
Destroy Them.

In lecture on modern artillery at
the Royal institution recently Lieut..
Col. Radcock of Elswick, contrasted
the life of big guns with that of a
butterfly.
In the case of the latter, he sup
posed that twenty-four hours would
be old age. The big gun, on the other
hand, looked everlasting, but it only
lived when it was being fired, and il
an incessant stream of projectiles
could be poured out from it it's active
life in that sense would be only
twelve seconds.-London Times.
