MYSTERIES IN HOLES.
What Becomes Of the Earth Rodents
Die From Their Dens7

i have found two weasels dens on
the margin of muck swamp in the
woods that presented the same insolu-
bic problem as the chipmunk's hole
what has become of the bushel or more
of earth that must have been brought
TO the surface? Both the weasel and
the chipmunk have several galleries
and one or more large chambers or
dining halls. and how each manages to
hide or obliterate all the loose soil that
must have been removed is n question
which has long puzzled me.
If we had an American Fabre or a
man who would give himself up to the
study OF the life histories OF our ro-
dents with the same patience and en-
thusiasm that the wonderful French
man has shown concerning the life his
tories of the insects he would doubt
less soon solve the mystery

Talks on Thrift
...Mary's Kitchen Sink.

Mary is the wife of country
storekeeper. She keeps the house,
takes care Of the children and helps
wait on the store. She works hard
harder than her husband, and he
works harder than he should.
Up to the present they have had
few of the conveniences of life. Water
came from nearby spring, and the
Homework was done under distress
ing conditions, owing to the greed of
the landlord. He finally agreed to
put in the improvements so necessary
to human comfort, and Mary's life
promised to become easier. The prob
lem was where to put the kitchen
sink
Now Mary had favorite rocking
chair that had mortgage on the
corner. Next came the stove, then
her kitchen cabinet. To put the sink
i'm the corner would disturb the rock
ing chair, and that would never do.
The stove and the cabinet could not
be moved; therefore it was resolved,
after much deliberation to put the
sink in an adjoining room, in a dark
corner thirty feet from the stove.
This, of course, meant miles of walk
ing every day for Mary, but she
could find no other way. But a kind
ly inclined friend, who could study
job, suggested moving the cabinet,
just one foot and putting the sink be-
tween the stove and the cabinet,
where it belonged. 1t was done, and,
behold, Mary is happy, rested wom-
an.
Now, what is the moral of it all !?
To. nm,
much on their jobs, which job consists
in getting the homework done in the
shortest time and with the least ex-
Mary-why should any woman--walk
half mile in getting dinner?. A
pan in one place, a pot in another,
flour, sugar, and salt in another. Back
and forth, to and fro, and for what ?
Wearing out shoes, carpets and ner-
yes, just because the kitchen sink has
not been put in its. place. It's a fine
art to have things handy. The
thrifty workman studies his work to
see how he can cut it down, keeping
tools in good condition, but near by.
A certain business mon in New
York cannot dictate letter. He
writes it out long hand, and has his
SIenOSTdpneT copy IL. Ilio IcicphonS
is on the wall twenty feet from his
desk, which is piled high with old
letters and papers. He has to hunt
to find things. He is wasting time,
nerve force and patience, just because
he can't get his kitchen sink ajusted
right.
The problem of all business-from
running home to running a railroad
lis to cut out waste of time and ma
terial, to get kitchen sinks where they
belong. Lost motion is costly, it
racks the machine, human as well as
inanimate. Mary would have carried
her kettle from the stove to the sink
in the dark corner a dozen times in
washing the dishes. Now she doesn't
carry it at all. She has solved her
problem.
Your problem is the same in es-
sence. Learn how to use the tele-
phone, the typewriter, the carbon
sheet. Learn where to keep your
tools as we'll as how to keep them.
Study short cuts. Eliminate false
steps. Do things the easiest (but the
best) way. Save your strength for
useful purposes. Study your job,
whatever it be, for, whether it be big
or little, it has the problem of Mary's
kitchen sink, and lucky for you if you
get it in the right place.-American

Grattan Grange

Those who attended the last meet
ing of Grattan Grange received sew
eral helpful emergency hints. The
one on auto fever by Worthy Master
Louis Emmons being especially fun
ny. He said he didn't consider it an
emergency case at all as it was long
time coming on and gave one plenty
of time to prepare for it. The cure
for the 4-cylinder disease was made
in Detroit and sold by Mr.. Ford, but
if attacked by the 6-cylinder disease
smooth agent would sell you a
Saxon. The 10 and 12-cylinder dis
ease seldom attacked the ordinary
farmer, but John d. Rockefeller had
the cure-all which would quell any
form of disease if he put gasoline to
40c gallon as was perdicted. The
chief after-effect noticeable was a
void in the pocket where you had
carried your money, but when one
was in the car a-hold of the wheel
this seldom bothered to speak Of.
The next meeting, April 20, the
fourth degree will be given followed
by feast of warm syrup and a
