comes back" remarkably and is de-
cidedly high in nutritive value.
Alsike grown for seed is profitable in
Wisconsin, provided the land on which
it is placed is reasonably free from
weeds. This point is highly impor-
tant, as many seedmen have learned
that alsike clover may contain large
quantities of noxious plant seeds, par
ticularly those of Canada thistle. In
fact, the situation has become so serit
Gus that dealers feel dubious about
handling alsike from many sections.
Alsike is frequently paired with
timothy in pastures. When this is de-
sired for a period of two or three
years, under the self-seeding PLAN it
gives excellent results. But as alsike
and timothy seed are almost impos-
sible TO separate in mixtures, neither
can be grown in this manner and sold
as pure seed.

Theatrical Production.

With reference to fine discrimina-
ton in the use Of the .well-known Eng
lish language, it is possible to overdo
the thing.
Diving into the trunk of recollections
for the suitable illustration to adorn
this remark and point the moral, we
find 1t in Richard Mansfield's occu-
pancy of the Garrick theater in New
York days Of hilarity on that stage.
To Mansfield this theater was tenn
pie. He tolerated no lightly spoken
references to it. One day, when an
attache reported, Mansfield gave in
structions and started for his dressing
room.
"I'll see you after the Show" said
the business lieutenant in parting.
":After the show?'" repeated the
actor-manager, with dignity. Are we
acrobats?'
after the performance" replied his
associate, humbly.
""The performance exclaimed
Mansfield. Are we ants?
"Im very sorry" mumbled the
crushed manager; "Tll see you after
the play, SIR"
II shall be pleased to see you then." "

Between 5000 and 1000 men were
made prisoner. The Germans apparent

GAVE HIS WIFE A SURPRISE
Indiana Man, Dressed for Festive oc-
easion, Was Taken by Spouse
for Bold Burglar.

A member of the degree team of the
Columbus lodge Of Eagles was getting
himself ready to go to Greensburg,
where the Columbus team was to give
the work to class of candidates, re-
lates the Indianapolis News. Each
member of the Columbus team was to
wear dress suit. This member did
not have any evening clothes, so he
borrowed an outfit, including boiled
shirt, high collar and white tie. He
got home rather late and found his
wife in bed, asleep. He wished to try
the thing on to see just how he looked.
So, after dint Of much nervous expen-
dfture, he had everything in shape and
rather admired himself in the mirror.
He felt 1t was shame for his wife
to miss the great sight, so he went into
the bedroom, shook her gently and
waited for her to awaken. The woman
opened her eyes and looked into the
face of strange man attored in fash
ionable evening clothes. She gave one
scream and ducked under the cover.
"Go away, 60 away" she begged the
supposed gentleman burglar, 1--WE
haven't any money"
Nobody knows that any better than
I do" her husband retorted, "but that's
no reason why you should carry on
like this"
Then she recognized his voice, came
from under the covers and admired
him to his hearts content.
