HEN LAYS LITTLE
AFTER THIRD YEAR

Old LENS are the cause Of low
averages IN egg-pT oduction. The
rhllets work regularly, Chicago
farm paper says, but the old hens
lay about dozen eggs and rest the
remainder of the year.
Unless you are raising a particular
stock of chickens of which you
have only a few hens, You can not
afford to keep the Old hens as
layers.A hen is not profitable after
her third summer as a layer. Sell

best plan for the smaaI pou tryman.

kidnappers, when they found out
who was. For, of course, it was
mistake. They had meant to
kidnap a good looking youngster
Miss Man waring, in fact.
She nodded vigorous affirma-
ton of the statement. so Walter
tells me; and he ought to know.
When he found out his mistake
of course. he posted off after me,
and arrived just in time to effect
a dramatic rescue. And then he
had to confess.
THE whole business" she went
on, from beginning to end, was
just childishly simple. In fact,
ridiculous. And sickening. You're
not going, Adele?" she interrupt
ed herself as Mrs. Standish rose.
Without answer her niece NOV

Mrs. GosnOld nodded to Trego.
"Oh. yes, let her go. I'm sure
I've no more use for her. But half
minute, Adele; the ear will be
ready to take you and Walter to

There was no answer. The door
closed behind Mrs. Standish, and
her aunt calmly continued.
1T seems that Adele's motor
ious extravaganza got her into
hot water. She went to money
lenders-usurers in fact. And,

worse. Then Walter, who has
never been prescriptions, con-
ceived the brilliant notion of a
new start by swindling the burg
lar insurance people. Adele has
always carried heavy insurance on
her jewelry almost the only
sensible habit she ever contract
ed. And so they conspired, like

Abraham Ruef

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March
1s-AbrahHm Ruef, former po-
litical boss Of San Francisco, now
on parole from San Quentin pris-
on, has gone into business again.
HE is A BROKER IN IDEAS.
AS keen and alert as in the old
days when political pie hunters
trembled at his word, Ruef has,
in quiet way, shown his deter
mination to make good once
more by inventing a brand new
business. The marketing of his
own and other peoples ideas will
from now on be his chief en-
deavor.
"My commercial ideas might
involve, for instance, the effic-
lent utilization of vacant prop
erty, so as to make it a profita-
BILE asset instead of an expensive
burden They might involve the
successful financing of a bust
ness proposition for a man who
is overwhelmed with debt, or the
suggestion of a method of pub
licity to attract trade to a slug
gish business; perhaps they
might result in the promotion of

In New York. So 1t would be in
sane for him 70 come here and
get them and then take them to
Boston In this emergency Adele
went Walter one better in the
matter of stupidity. She took
Mr.. Lyttleton into her confidence
and browning blunder! took his
advice. Mr.. Lyttleton conceived
magnificently romantic scheme.
Walter waste come to New Bed
ford, secretly hire a motor-boat,
and be off the harbor here at a
certain hour of night. Mr.. Lyt-
Teton was to leave the jewels in
a designated spot at the foot of
the cliffs. At an agreed signal be-
tween the yacht and Adele's
chamber window, Walter was to
come in, at dead of night, and get
the jewels, return to the main
land, discharge his boat, go to
Boston, pawn the jewels, get the
money, and be here in good time
the next day.
walter, notified of this ar
rangement by letter to New York,
fell in with it heart and soul. The
arrangement was actually car
