the summer supply of chicks. The
first setting Of eggs was placed in the

ing to the directions that came with
the incubator. At the expiration of
the y days, Mrs. MaanCrS was some
what surprised to discover that out of
the large number Of eggs, not 4 single
chick had been Matched. The follow
ing day, she went to the incubator for
the second inspection, but there were
no eggs in the act Of Matching She
then gathered Up a few bits Of hen
fruit and placed them in cold water,
knowing that an egg ready to hatch
would turn over when thrust into cold
water. But the eggs remained as
quiet as the pTOvcrbial fishing cork.
She thsn broke one open and to her
establishment, found it had been
cooked. She examined the whole set
ting and found they had been boiled.
A new selection of eggs were placed
in the incubator and the fire was
turned low. Mrs. Mcancrs is wonder
ing now whether she will have TO go
back to the old hen or do without the
spring chicken.

To sleep at night and dream of thee,

The foregoing lines may be remark
ably expressive of the general atti-
tude OF = majority CT the population

which everyone is holding on to that
winter coat and shivering. However.
there are 4 few persons who would in

are the farmers. After observing very
carefully their activities during the
past few days, we may safely ccnjec-
ture that they have pinned their faith

lation passed and bills now pending in
Congress concerning the Daughters.
He told the audience that with the
stress of the present national and in
ternational situation too much could
not be Immediately expected.
He reported the virtual success of
the movement to renew the patent on
the insignia of the Daughters, the pat
ent on which, obtained in 1890, has ex-
pired. Congress has the authority to
renew the patent. he explained. He as
sured the Daughters that they had the
favorable support of the national legis-
lators in asserting their moral right to
protect the insignia. and that though
measure had been lately passed to
extend the patent on their pITi Tor sew
eral years to come. it would end in a
permanent protection.
Exemption from taxation for the
property of the Daughters in the Dis
trict is provided for in a bill. the pas

clared. would be reported out and IA

He also assured the Daughters that a
book would be published at cost rea-
sonably low. containing the records of
all the men who fought in the revolu-
tionary war. The volume will be put
on sale. and the burden of cost will fall
neither on Congress nor on the ID. A. r..
but on the individual purchasers.
Legislation is pending with favorable
prospects of passage to make The
Star Spangled Banner the national air,
said Representative Davis. The only
issue in connection with the bill at
which Congress was at odds. he said, is
a question concerning the authorship of
the words and music. it not being def
nitely established to the satisfaction of
Congress whether Francis Scott Key
wrote the words or the music. This
question can be eliminated by striking
out the names of authors in the bill, he
said. and passing the measure without
reference to it.
Representative Davis finally express
ed the hope that national legislation
would be enacted at this Congress pro-
testing against the dissertation of the
American flag.
