There is no depreciation on a chicken

them with that; but we charge every
one with the food it eats and the value

with the value of the chicks it matches.
We hope to raise turkeys, celery,
squads, etc, and sell them to you city

at the poor middleman.
"The members of the Ham School

the rural schools, will be appreciated,

WHO WAS ROBINSON CRUSOE2
Not Much Known of Alexander Sci.
kirk, Born In Largo, Scotland
Was Extraordinary Man.

One is sometimes tempted to parody
Kiplings famous words, and ask,
What do they know of Crusoe, who
only Crusoe known" For it is sad
fact that, apart from a hazy notion
that the original of this world famous
character was drawn from one Alex
ander Selkirk, little or nothing is
known of a most extraordinary man,
London Answers states.
Selkirk was born in the little Fife
shire village of Largo, in 1876, and
from almost his earliest days the I'M
conventional adventurous spirit of the
boy brought forth the wrath of his
neighbors.
When he was about eighteen he de-
cided that he would go to sea and. hay
ing refused utterly to follow his ia
theirs trade of shoemaking, he quit
his native village. Two years later
we find him (at his own request) be-
ing marooned on lonely island after
violent quarrel with the captain of
the ship on which he was making his
second voyage.
For four years and four months he
remained there, but finally turned up
again at Largo, while his parents were
at church. So to church went Alexan-
der, and seated himself directly be-
hind his father and mother. The good
lady, on turning round and recogniz-
ing her son, caused the service to be
interrupted by her cries of astonish-
ment.
While at home, Selkirk fell in love
with and married Sophie bruce. But
he did not settle down. After a very
short while they both disappeared
from Largo.
Nothing more was heard of them IN
til one day, years later, young wom-
an arrived in Largo, saying she was
Alexander Selkirks second wife, and
had come to claim his belongings.
She proved that Sophie bruce had
died some years previously and that
now Alexander himself had also
passed away on board his majesty's
ship Weymouth. ON which he was a
lieutenant.

snugly placed of war-zone cities, for it
is practically only assailable by the
airship and aeroplane. In order to
get into this city, an army would have
to ascend a narrow mountain road be-
yond the clouds, and after it got there
would find nothing in particular to do
other than to go sightseeing. There
is nothing around Cetinje to hold
on to. There are plenty of stones
fresh air and bleak fields. From the
latter fruits are won only by undis-
mayed pampering and cajolery.
Cetinje consists of a main street
and a cross street. On the cross street
is the kings palace. This is a fair
sized, whitewashed Italian villa, with
an audience room about fifteen feet
square and a red tiled roof. The
main street is well kept and it is en-
closed by two regular lines of white
washed, stone houses, of one and two
stories, many of which have stores
on the ground floor. There is fac

Toye looked disconnected and dis

puzzled. He apologized none the less
readily, with almost ingenious cour-
tesy and fullness, but he ended by ex-
planning himself in a single sentence,
and that told more than the rest of his
straightforward eloquence put to-
sether.
If man had done you down like
that. wouldn't you want to kill him the
very moment you came out, Cazalet ?"
The creature of impulse was off at
a tangent. "Id forgive him II he did

heaven and earth to save him, guilty
or not guilty. Wouldn't you in my

which was founded more than twenty
years ago by the empress of Russia.
Ivan the Black, forced about the
end Of the fourteenth century, to
abandon Jablilak, the former capital

Cetinje. The Turks have taken the
town several times, the Montenegrins
retreating to the surrounding heights
of barren limestone. from whence
they have kept up their struggle until
the Turks sickened of their dreary,
bootless conquests. Cetinje is diff.

and small reason there can be to I'M
