WHAT HAPPENED TO JANE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water

we're not rich. II we do have to work
in one way or another, we didn't sell
ourselves for money"
Jane had little to say for some min
utes after Ruth had left her. Then
she spoke tentatively.
Augustus" she ventured, I'm
sorry you said just what you did to
Ruth. She's an old friend-and I'm
afraid her feelings were hurt by your
manner"
IT can't help it If they were," Au-
Eustus returned. she may as well
understand that a married woman
can't go galhvanting around the coun-
try and having folks running in to
see her the way she did before she
was married. You're my wife now,
and your place Is in my home and at
tending to your duties there"
But / want to keep my friends,
too" she argued, "as mother has
done"
your mother is a very easy-going
person." Augustus declared. She's a
good woman, but she's easier than I
want my wife to be. She has let you
do just about as you pleased instead of
bringing you up strict. While you're
fine girl" with a smile that was meant
to be indulgent, you've been a little
spoiled. You're not to blame-for
you've had your own way all your life.
And your fathers too eaSy-going, too.
She Defends Her Parents Vigorously
They're the best people in the
world" the girl exclaimed, a catch in
her breath. She did not want to quar-
rel here on the train. but she could
not let the censure of her dear ones
pass unchallenged. eff 1 am not all I
ought to be-and I know L am not
it's not their fault"
There, there-don't worry about
that now" Augustus soothed. He
glanced about uneasily. 1t would be a
dreadful thing If 1t was suspected that
he and his wife were having an alter
cation already. II Jane should cry,
what would people think? You
needn't worry, but you're all right"
he continued. IT picked you out of
all the girls in Miton-didn't I? And
even If you've got great deal to learn,
my house is the place that you'll learn
it well. But since you will have so
much to do. don't take TO the idea of
your having young folks coming in all
the time. And I wanted Ruth Crosby
to understand that
The train was slowing up at the Mil
ton station and Augustus began to
gather up bags and umbrellas.
Might we," Jane hesitated, might
we-that is--would it be convenient
for you to have the man stop just for
a minute on the way up and let me
see how father and mother are?"
TITS too late" her husband replied.
I'VE must get home, Jane"

that the hens must work to dig it out.
Three or even four small feelings of
this scratch grain will pay in eggs,
but care must be exercised to see the
hens are not fed too much at one
time, but just enough to keep them
slightly hungry. At the last feed,
however, they should be given all they
will clean up. If wet mashes are fed,
precaution should be taken to prevent
the hens over-eating. and then refus-
ing to work for their grain the re-
mainder of the day. IF the birds are
inclined to sit around on the roosts in
stead of being down in the litter, it is
a sign that too much feed has been
given at one time and the next feeding
should be decreased or left off entirely.
It is well to look in the litter OCCASION
ally, to make sure they are cleaning
up all the grain scattered there each
day.
Wet mash may be fed once a day
to advantage, but it should never be
sloppy, Just barely wet. Milk. either
sweet or sour, makes the best founda-
ton for mash. which should be fed in
V-shaped troughs, Ion" enough so all
the hens can eat at once, or some will
get more and others less than their
snare. InlS maSn may be fed at any
time, but no grain should he given
for an hour previous to or following
the feeding and should he fed so that
the hens will clean it up in a few
minutes. IF any is left over for
half hour. feed less each day until the
proper amount is determined. In very
cold weather. it will pay to wet the
mash with hot water or milk, and an
occasional feeding of cooked vege-
tables such as potatoes, cabbage, etc,
as a substitute for either the grain
or the mash will be much relished by
the fowls.

of shoulders, full heavily muscled
breast, long legs and neck, short tap
ering tail and general shortness and
hardness of feathers. For show pur-
poses, 1t is necessary to cut off the
comb and wattles for the males, a pro-
cess known as "dubbing."
The Black Red Male Is beautifully
colored. His head, neck, back, top of
wings and secondary flight feathers
are red, and the breast. body, tail and
wing bow a glossy greenish black.
The female is clothed in soft and mod
est shades of brown. Her neck is
golden yellow with dark stripe down
the center of each feather. Her breast
is salmon, blending into the brown
OF the thighs. The back, thighs and
body are brown, finely penciled with
a darker shade of the same color.
Black Red Games are not easily
handled. They are very pugna cious,
which prevents keeping more than one
male in the flock. They are, however,
readily confined. being heavy and hav-
ing very short wings, which prevents
them from flying easily. They make
excellent table fowl. The eggs are
brown in color and enjoy the reputa-
ton of possessing a particularly rich
flavor.

BLACK BREASTED RED GAMES
CoPYRIG HT, 1915.

Records show that Game fowls ex-
listed in India for centuries before the
Christian era. History refers to cock
fights as one of the Roman pleasures,
and cooking mains have been popular
all through English history
The original Black Breasted Red
Game was of the Pit Game or fighting
type, which is commonly known as
the old English Black Red Game.
The latter still exists as one of the
standard varieties of Pit Games. but
the exhibition type shown in our il
lustration is plainly the result of care
full selection and breeding by fanciers.
These Exhibition Games have lost
little of the fiery Game temper, and
if two of the males get together, they
will fight until one of the contestants
is dead.
The Exhibition Black Breasted Red
Game Is a variety whose utility quail
ties are very limited, and 1t is bred
chiefly by Il number of fanciers, who
admire its extreme height and beau
tiful coloring. 1t Is bred more extern
sively in England than in America,
and in the former country competi-
ton among the breeders is very keen.
Games are notable for their width

The train by which Augustus Reeves
and his bride returned to Milton left
New York between and o'clock.
AS Jane saw her husband return the
greetings of several commuters she
thought she understood why he had
insisted that she travel back home in
her new suit and hat. Reeves wanted
men who were his neighbors to note
how we'll he was dressing his wife.
She glanced eagerly around the car
and smiled as her eyes fell on the face
of girl who lived not far from the
Hardys. Ruth Crosby smiled in re-
turn. then. leaving her seat, crossed
the aisle to speak to her friend.
How do you do, Mr.. Reeves!" she
said lightly. Hello, Jane! I'm glad
to see you coming back home. You
stole such a march on us all that we
didn't even know you were married
before you were off on your wedding
trip. I suppose you've had a lovely
timer"
The speakers interest was centered
in the bride and she bestowed scarcely
more than glance upon Augustus.
Thank YOU" Jane said shyly. I'VE
were in New York-and of course It's
pretty lively there at this time of year.
But I'm glad to be getting back to
That's good. I'm coming to SEQ
You soon-and so are all the other
girls, guess"
Before Jane could reply her hus-
band spoke. Jane will he very busy
for a good while" he remarked POM
pously. She has a great deal to at
tend to in her new home-for my
house is large. She'll have little leis-
ure for company for some time"
The Girls Get n False Impression of
Jane
Ruth flushed hotly and looked at
Jane. She could not know that the
young wife's heart cried out in protest,
nor how she longed to beg her friend
TO come to see her often. to take pity
on her loneliness. Nor could she sus-
pect that Jane resented her husbands S
rude speech and that embarrassment,
chagrin and shame held her dumb.
Very well" Ruth Crosby retoined.
I will remember, Jane, and not in
trllde. Good-by"
"Good-by," Jane murmured as the
girl nodded stif1y and went back to
her seat.
She's getting stuok-up already"
Ruth announced later to her chums.
Just because she's married to old
Reeves and his money she thinks she
can snub us girls. Well I. for one,

flock thoughtful attention and care.
The hens are usually willing to meet
YOU half way in the matter of returns.
The following article suggests some
ways of encouraging them.
UTINTER eggs are the goal of the
wv poultry raiser. no matter
whether he is an amateur or a
professional, for it is the winter eggs
that bring the high prices and mean
profit to the man who makes his liv-
ing raising poultry and economy to the
one who raises chickens for eggs for
his own use. 1t is a common saying
that everybody's hens lay eggs in the
Spring when eggs are plentiful and low
in price, but winter eggs are only for
the few wise ones who give their hens
proper care.
The first step toward procuring them
is to consider the history of the hen
herself. Her own record for health
must be good, preferably with never a
sick day against her from the time
she was hatched She should have
that she has finished her growth and
is fully matured before the cold
weather of Fall sets in. Pullets that
were Matched in the summer and Fall
never grow to full size and seldom
do much, if any, winter laying the
flrSt year of their lives. Even if they
lay the first winter, the eggs will be
small The hen must be we'll cared
for all her life. 1t is useless to expect
that even the best of last minute care
to a lot of fowls that have had little or
no attention all Spring, summer and
Fall will produce a good winter egg
yield. Better dispose of all sickly and
dwarfed stock and keep only those
that show vigor and are fully matured.
Proper Housing a Paying Investment
Hens that must live in damp sheds
or roost in the trees cannot be made
even to pay for their feed in winter,
simply because their entire energy will
be required to keep warm in such
quarters. They will wait to do their
laying until Spring comes. But do not
infer that warmth alone will make
them lay, or that there is any virtue in
keeping hens in an artiflcially heated
house. The ideal henhouse should be
well ventilated and we'll protected
from drafts, and above all things dry:
especially over the roosting quarters.
The best way to ventilate a house is
to alternate cloth or burlap curtains
and glass windows; the latter will pro-
vide light on stormy days when the
cloth ones must be closed The cloth
windows should be left open on sunny
days, and If the house seems stuffy
some of them should also be opened
at night, preferably those in the CEN
ter of the house, rather than at the

Mothers know that Cascarets act

COPYRIGHT, 1916.

OF the many items contributing to
the poultryman's profits, winter eggs
are among the most important, and
sometimes the most elusive. There
should be no difficulty in obtaining
them, however, if you will give your
flock thoughtful attention and care.
The hens are usually willing to meet
YOU half way in the matter of returns.
The following article suggests some
ways of encouraging them.

Some of the prettiest models
shown, built of lace and silk or
satin, have the more substantial
fabric disposed in long panels,
like wide stripes over the lace
petticoat, while the waist trim
ming carries out the same effect.
This type of dress becomes the
woman who can not wear fam
boyant hip draperies and lends
itself admirablyto refurbishing
a partly worn dress, or to con-
structing>a pretty gown of a
short length of silk or velvet.
Never have | seen so many op-
portunities for using remnants
for modish fancy froclss as later
models offer. Hardly any dress
is built Of less than three mater.
ials and often more are used with
excellent results.
Materials and Trimmings.
Taffeta silk is still leading for
fussy frocks of all sorts, and
spangled trimmings are extreme
ly modish. At the opera a few

geous oriental hues shot through
with threads of gold or silver,
make gorgeous wraps that are a
most striking color note of fash
ionable audiences. and a most
necessary protection when waists
as fimsy as those now worn ex-
pose their wearers to the slight
est chill or draft. Even the scarfs
that cover the neck are of tulle,
which, while undoubtedly becom-
ing. afford even less protection
than the former chiffon throws.
Voluminous as to cut, most of the
evening wraps enc sees can be
readily copied at home with the
aid of a good pattern and clever
seamstress, and a well selected
coat of this sort lasts several sea-
sons and pays for itself many
times over in comfort and ap-
pearance.
