MEETING A JILTED BEAU.
"A lover forsaken
 A new love may get, But a heart that's once broken Can never be set"

But a heart that's once broken Can never be set.'
 r It is quite true that not one man out of twenty is successful in his wooing of fair woman. He either elects to win the heart of a girl to whom he does not appeal or fails to find the narrow path which crosses from friendship Ao love when he does find an impressionable maiden. Opportu- nifty does not stand idling by while he is trying to make up his mind con- corning still another of the fair sex.
 He wavers so long that she makes up her mind to accept the man who has the good judgment to speak up quickly, and then the fact dawns on him that there is another Richmond in the field.
 A man never takes being tilted phil osophically He is always very cer- tain that undue influence caused the young woman to choose 'the other fellow" Where one man Is satisfied to let it go at that others make up their minds that their hopes need not be entirely snuffed out until she turns from the altar the wife of the rival.
 Men with such notions make a prac-
 
 the girl and her fiance are likely to attend or to call at the homes of friends she visits. It is " diff cult matter for the young lad to meet the beau she has tilted. She feels that she should not embarrass him by cold ness nor yet encourage his presump- tions. if he has any, by being too cor dial He cannot be met as a stranger or mere acquaintance nor yet as a friend. Those who have once felt the lingering clasp of the others hand can never be as strangers are nor as cas- ual acquaintances-content either to meet or not to meet-nor yet as friends, for two whose hearts have warmed toward each other ever so slightly can never afterward be only friends. Friendship may glide into love, but love back to calm friend ship-never!
 If the tilted beau is courteous, stu. diously polite, if they are brought into contact, but does his utmost to keep out of the way, the average girl is duly thankful. If he persists in how ering about her, presuming upon past memories, it is embarrassing in the extreme to any one save an acknowl- edged f1irt
 Foolish is the maid who encourages the old beau. If it Is done to make the new suitor jealous, it rarely works More likely than not, he accuses her in his own mind of caring the most after all for No. 1. He will not have a heart that still yearns for love 1t once least off. The result is a lovers misunderstanding and he goes his way -she going hers.
 Sensible girls will not give an ac- cepted lover such cause for discon- tent-and therefore shun the society of the pflted beau and take pains to let him know he is not wanted when he persists in making his appearance at gatherings she attends, lowering at her side. When either man or woman is the tilted one it should suffice to know love is dead and it is impossible to bring to life again an affection en- tirely burned out.

SOAP THEIR STOCKINGS

Washington, July 1S-That United States Marines suffer little from foot troubles on long hikes in the tropics. is attributed to the fact that they in variably sprinkle soap powder into their shoes. or soap their stockings just prior to the march. according to a naval surgeon just returned to this city from Haiti.
 In the Haitien campaign the United States Marines were sometimes fore ed to march thirty or more miles a day, over rough mountainous roads. and the cases of blistering or painful swelling of the feet, were almost neg ligible.

TODAY'S POEM
A NOTE TO A GUIDE

(Arthur Gutterman. in LAfe) Dear Tom-o'-Woods. good day to you! take a pen to say to you! I'd like to run away to you
 A city is jail,
 loathe the walls that block us in, The foolish rags they frock us in, . wan to wear a moccasin
 And feel the messy trail- To watch the forest shimmeefng, The morning kettle simmering, To know the flash and glimmering
 The dripping paddles make. To taste the breath of June again. ..i. To hear the calling loon again, '' To see the mirrored moon again
 Within Q dreaming lake. A. brooks clear laugh is haunting mo, A squirrels chirr is, haunting me! know the hills are wanting me
 The hills long to roam Then fill a pack or two for me < Oh. anything will do for me And patch the old canoe for me;
 Your boy is coming Home. <

Platt's pen from, Wallingford, Pa., won the blue ribbon or first prize with a production of 254 eggs. w. E. Atkinson's pen from Wallingford, Conn.,, were second with 237 eggs, while Francis F. Lin coln's pen from Mt. Carmel, Conn. and, Harry Williams pen from Bridgeport, Conn, tied for third, each having laid 235 eggs for the month. Thus it will be noted that Connecticut breeders furnished three of the four best pens.
 In the thirty-sixth week all pens taken together laid a total of 4,062 eggs, a gain of 100 over the corres- bonding week last year. F. R. Han cocks Leghorns from Jacksonville, Vt., won first place with 57 eggs to their credit. P. G.. Platt's. pen mentioned above as winners of the blue ribbon for the month of June were second with 56 eggs, a good start for the July ribbon. A pen of Barred Rocks en- tered by Mendelay Poultry Yards. Springfield. Ohio. two pens of White Leghorns owned by Hampton Institute. Hampton, Va. and Margereta Poultry Farm. Rocky River. Ohio, all tied for third place with 53 eggs each.
 White Wyandotte hen No. PAS laid twenty eggs during June but only four of these could be credited to the pen as sixteen of them were soft shelled and therefore unmarketab1e. In the first nine days of July this hen laid eight eggs every one of which was unmarketable. In consequence she has been disqualified as unfit to con-

PASSING OF THE ATTIC
The Modern House Usually Does Not
 Provide It.
(Kansas City Starl


 A very modern indictment against the architects and builders of this town has been returned by a young married couple who have spent con- siderable time looking for a home. They report the incredible fact that there are no attics in the newer class of houses, or very few. Where the attic ought to be there are fin ished rooms. papered walls, and light ing fixtures.
 To the philosophic mind this is a state of affairs of the gravest moment for in the swift-moving, tide of Amer ican life that has swept away so many of the moorings of the home and fam fly the attic was about all was left to tie to. Not everybody can have an- cestors, portraits, family skeletons and the other things that go with lineage; but everybody can have an attic if they will maket a stand for it and not allow mere style in houses to de- prive them of their rights. An attic is the nearest substitute for family tree that hs been discovered. It takes only @ few generations to furnish it with mementoS- that constitute a complete genealogical history of the occupants of the house. And these are the things-like portraits and skeletons go to preserve family pride.
 No man can go into the atticsand see the first copper-toed boots he wore as boy hanging to the rafters with out feeling some sort of stir with in him. He cannot see the remains of his grandmother's hoopskirts with out feeling somehow that there is a connecting link between his and the history of his country. As for the padded silk brocaded vest his grand father wore on his wedding day, it is a patent of responsibility equal to a suit of armor-besides looking a good deal like one.

IF SHE'S PLEASANT.

E. G. writes: T am past IS and am considered attractive. I love and am beloved by young man pay senior. We attend academy in our town. Girls certainly like him. Show their feelings cheekily. Seems he cares for none. I am cute and too proud to show my af- lection. Can I receive photo of his in future, not asking for it, taken in class? Will he correspond of his own accord to keep up our interest?'
 Girls not forward, waiting for him to be wooer, best succeed with him. Class photo may be given, later. If better acquainted may correspond, finding you pleasant but not forward.

CANADA'S PLANS
FOR WAR REVENUE
So Wisely Distributed That Tax
alton Will Affect Farmers to
a Degree Practically
Unnoticeable.

So many rumors have been clrcu'
lated regarding war taxation In
Canada that the statement made by
Sir Thomas White, Canadian Minister
of Finance. OF the Government plans
for raising war revenue should be CIV
en- the widest circulation. Sir Thomas
made 1t clear that the revenue Will be
raised by taxing the profits of incor-
porated companies whenever those
profits exceed seven per cent. and the
profits of unincorporated firms or part
nerships when the profits exceed ten
per cent On all such excess profits
these companies or firms will have to
contribute one-quarter to the Govern.
ment. Transportation companies.
banks. mining. milling. and other COM
panies will be subject to this taxation.
but life Insurance companies, and com
panies with less than fifty thousand
dollars capitalization. and companies,
firms, or individuals engaged In asrl
culture or stock raising, are exempt.
and pay no part Of this taxation. The
only other additional taxation pro-
posed is an increase of fifty cents q
barrel In the customs duty on apples.
and one-half cent a gallon In customs
duty on certain kinds of oils.
1t will be noticed that this taxation
is being applied in such way that 1t
does not affect farmers In the slight,
est degree. except. perhaps. through a
small increase in cost Of apples and
oil. The war revenue Is to be paid out
Of the profits of the big firms and com.
panies with capital of over fifty thou
sand dollars. and even these are al.
lowed seven per cent in some cases.
and ten per cent in others. OF clear
profits before they have to pay any
part OF this taxation. 1t will be seen
that the whole policy is to place the
war expenditure taxation on those who
have been making big profits and are
able to pay It. and to encourage farm.
ing and stockraising by exempting
farmers and stock-raisers from the tax
alton. This ought to set at rest every
rumor that the farmer or the farmers
land Is being taxed to pay the cost Of
the war.-Advertisemen
