Keep HenhouseS
 Free From Mites

Few farmers and poultrymen ap- preciate the value and cheapness of crude oil-crude petroleum, the same used for treating roads-as paint and insecticide for poultry houses, hog houses, coops and other places where insecticides and paint are needed. Crude oil is also germicide and can be used as n general disinfectant in some ways. It is especially good for sprinkling around troughs and other feeding and watering vessels for kill ing pests. 1t is good on poultry house or hoghouse floor to settle dust.
 There is no better lice and mite eX- terminator than crude oil. It is es- pecially good for painting perches, dropping boards, insides of coops and breeders. It is splendid wood pre- servative and a good, cheap paint where the dark color is of no objec- tion. It Is better than kerosene for painting perches and inside walls to kill insects, as it is thicker and fills small cracks better. It Is valuable used on foundation and floor boards of GOODS and house for preservation and to keep out moisture.

Baruaininq In Arabia.

A missionary was bargaining one day with an Arab stonecutter.
 Give me $1 a boatload," said the Arab.
 That is too much" replied the mis- sionary. You only charge SC to your fellow Arabs, and they make you wait for your money. pay spot cash.'
 Yes, but you ought to be glad to get 1t for seven," said the stonecutter. You do not know how much, my fel- low Arabs despise me for dealing with you at all, because you are an infidel, you know"
 The Arabs are all Mohammedans. The stronger a Christian a man is the more of an infidel they think him to be. Missionaries were unwelcome in that country. Only by their medical work did they get any foothold at all. There have perhaps been fewer con verts there than on any other mission field. But missions have been estab- lished there less than thirty years. Sometimes several generations of mis- sionaries live and work and die so that their successors may see the fruit of the labors of them all.-World Outlook.

Conflictinq Duties.

The most difficult thing in life seems to me to recognize which is the higher of two conflicting duties, and those to whom 1t is easiest must have, think, not only the most happiness, but genius. If goodness were always quite simple, what could be more delightful than to be good always? It is, however, a sad thing, when the understanding and the affections are at variance, when one has to stop and consider which of two courses is morally incumbent on one, and without always finding a solution. It is sad, because it shakes ones faith in that which ought to be the surest of guides-namely, in ones own con science. And, let one choose what he will, it leaves in his mind sting, some thing to regret.-Paul Heyse.

The Browns of St. Louis.

Fielder Jones may not win the Amer ican league pennant this year, but there is no denying the fact that just now his St. Louis Browns are the most interesting club in baseball. After wallowing around near the Athletics they have become pennant contenders There are any number of people who believe that Fielder Jones is going to win the pennant. They think that his present Browns are more powerful than his famous White Sox of hallow- cd memory in Chicago. Certainly with George SisIer. Derrill Pratt. Armando Marsans and Bert Shotten the Browns are a faster and heavier hitting aggre- gation than the old SOX.
