Farm Dwellers.

The lot of the resident on the farm
is far from being undesirable and
from the standpoint of freedom from
worry over matters financial the
dweller in the country has distinct
advantage over the city chaps, whom
no doubt, they frequently envy. 1t
is generally understood that 81 in the
country is equivalent to SO in the city
and not infrequent!y there are fami-
lies in the country whose income is
nil. They handle very lit
tie real money in the course of the
year; their wants are few and plain
and easily satisfied. A like income
in the city would mean more appeals
for charity. In the country the ques-
tion of rent, and in many communi-
ties, the question Of fuel, is eliminat-
ed. The expenditure for clothes is
less. Much of the food supplied
by the garden and orchard, and meat,
butter and eggs are produced right at
home. The expenditure for amuse-
ments is necessarily less. While too
often country life is drab and unin-
teresting, it need not necessarily be
so, and the country dweller of small
income lives far more luxuriously
than does his city cousin of equal in
come.-Lafayette Courier.

KNOW AMERICA!> y
Factors Which Are Helping in Re-
discovering Our Country.

America has been rediscovered,
says Kathleen Hills, in Leslies. The
war, the California expositions, low
railroad fares and a general wave of
prosperity, enabling many to travel
who have not done so before, have
| been the contributing factors in help
ing Americans to rediscover America.
lumbus and the early and adventur-
IS pioneers discovered America, and
he steamboats, and then the railroads
opened it to travellers. Many have
been too busy travelling abroad to
learn what a wonderland nature has
given us. 1t took the calamity OF
war to bring us to realization of
our wealth of natural scenery and
our unequalled facilities for travel.
Our architectural wonders and the
works of man are not as old or thrill
ingly reminiscent of great historical
events as many places abroad, but
our natural wonders are as ancient
as any in Egypt ana more inspiring.
How much richer this country is for
this awakened interest can better be
told in hard, cold facts. Every year,
prior to the war, between 100000
and 100000 left America to travel
abroad, taking with them between
$500, 900, 900 and s500,000,000. For
two years this vast sum has been
turned back into our own Golfers, and
unless the war ends speedily, this
wealth, for the third year, will stay
in America.

Paper for Clothing.


The Japanese have long used pa
per for clothing purposes. Why
could we not also use paper in manu-
facture Innings for garments and fill
ings for comfortables in this time of
urgent need? Papers have been used
in the dress trade for the balloon
sleeve which was pliable and did not
rustic. The Chinese have long man
ufactured paper of this nature. If
we could manufacture pliable pa
per reinforced with cotton threads
or cheesecloth so that it would not
break in the creases or tear readily
in the handling, a cheap and warm
commodity could be turned out that
would serve the same purpose as the
more expensive materials.-NeW
York Times.

Effects of Frost.

An egg expands when it is frozen
and breaks it's shell. Apples con-
tract so much that full barrel will
shrink until the top layer is a foot
below the chine. When the frost is
drawn out the apples assume their
normal size and fill up the barrel
again. Some varieties are not ap-
preciably injured by being frozen, if
the frost is drawn out gradually.
Apples will carry safely in a refrig-
orator car while the mercury is reg
istering fully 20 degrees below zero.
Potatoes, being so largely composed
of water, are easily frozen. Once
touched by frost they are ruined

Executive Ability.

"You ask for the secret of success.
Well, one secret in executive work is
putting the right man in the right
place. Like Lord Claud Hamilton,
you know" said Washington visit
or, to the Star.
Lord Claud was travelling over his
line when a brakeman-or guard, as
they say in the old country-shouted
at Action station:
"Haction! Haction!"
Lord Claud smiled. A little fur
ther on, arriving at Hanwell, another
guard shouted:
'Anwell! 'Anwell;
"Quick as a flash Lord Claud said
to his companion.
"'You see how difficult it is, Thorn
ton, to get the right man in the right
place. We must have the Action por-
ter brought here, and we'll send that

She Didn't Smile.

The young woman had spent a
busy day, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord.
She had browbeaten fourteen sales
people, bullyragged a floor walker,
argued victoriously with a milliner,
laid down the law to a modiste, nip
ped in the bud taxi chauffeur's at

street car conductor stop the car. in

Yet she did not smile that night
when young man begged:

life.''

Fortunes in Little Things.

One does not have to live in a
large town to find an opportunity to
make a fortune. The opportunities
are everywhere. 1t is only the man
with his eyes open who sees them.
Druggist Lommitt, of Rochester, Mo-,
who remembered the demand for
quinine during the civil war, had his
eyes open, for he bought 10000
ounces of quinine little more than
a year ago at fourteen cents an
ounce. His judgment proved cor
rect, for the quinine that cost him
s1.4O0 is now worth $4,000, and 1t
may go higher,
He has had nothing to do with in
creasing the price. 1t is the demand
that is putting it up. A philanthrop-
ist might argue that it is crime to
make money out of the necessities of
the sick; but philanthropists who re-
fuse to turn an honest penny When
the opportunity offers are few and
far between. Some Of them do not
indulge in philanthropy as a recrea-
ton until they have accumulated a
large surplus by squeezing the last
cent of profit from every transaction.
In the meantime the Dimmitts of big
towns and little ones are doing their
best to qualify themselves for be-
nevolence by making hay while death
wields the scythe.-Philadelphia Led

Grips Dos and Don't's.

Keep away from crowded places of
assembly when grip is prevalent.
Have plenty of fresh air at home
and where you work.
Wear clothes according to the out
side temperature, but avoi1 too heavy
clothes indoors to prevent unhealthy
skin coddling, which will make you
more liable to attack by the grip
germ.
Keep in open air as much as pos
sible.
Keep the body functions regulated,
so that waste matter may be elm
mated.
Be temperate in eating and drink
Ing.
Keep your teeth well brushed.
Many evil minded germs lurk in the
mouth.
Think of the other fellow if you
yourself already have grip.
Don't sit around with wet feet.
Don't be promiscuous in your kiss
ing. The grip germ may be readily
passed from lip to lip.
Don't sneeze or cough in your
friends or neighbors' faces.
Don't ride in crowded street car
where all the windows are closed.
Don't be afraid of fresh air. Even
drafts will not hurt you unless you
are fatigued and overheated.
Don't fail to remember that grip
is very contagious. Keep away from
it if you can. The next best thing is
to keep physically fit, so you can re-
sist attack.

BYRNES MAKING IMPRESSION.
Pushing Fight to Secure Additional
Defenses for South Carolina.

Washington, Feb. ,25.-The efforts
Of Congressman Byrnes, of South
Carolina, to see that the South Caro-
lima coast is properly defended
against an enemy are being serious
ly considered here.
In the plans for general defense
of the Atlantic coast are preparations
for the heaviest class of Notifications
at the mouth of the Chesapeake bay,
it has become known through testi-
mony given before the Sherley sub
committee of the appropriations COM
mittee of the house. Gen William
Crozier, chief of ordnance of the
army, appeared before that commit
tee yesterday and gave considerabl BILE
testimony on the necessity for pro-
tecting that waterway He described
it as one of several places where ia
cilities for land operations are so
good that it is worth while to fortify
them, especially to prevent that op-
eration," Notwithstanding they are
not places where great damage can
be done by the guns of a fleet.:''
The general said further, in dis
cussing Chesapeake bay:
1--WE have Norfolk, defended at
Fort Monroe, Washington very much
over-defended and Baltimore defend
ed. But they (the enemy could
come into Chesapeake bay and es-
tablish a base along that shore, then
send an army in any direction. There
are few such points as that" Char
lesion and New Orleans might be
damaged by long range fleet fire, he
said, and 12-inch guns with high an
gle fire, giving them range beyond
any guns afoat or contemplated for
navy ships, would answer the de-
fense purposes at such points. At
lantic City and Gloucester, Mass,
similarly might be victims Of fleet
fire, he said, but their bombardment
would not injure the nations ability
to continue the war, and it is not
proposed to fortify them.
''It would be deplorable and very
unfortunate for the citizens" he add
ed, "but it is impracticable to defend
the whole coast against damage.
"Certain points are selected for
Notifications where the damage
would be so important as to affect the
fighting ability of the United States.
They are still not protected against
damage which could be done by
bodies of troops landed and marched
over land to one of these cities.
''The theory is that we have plenty
of people and plenty of resources to
take care of that condition, if we will
use them. If we will not use them,
there is no way to take care Of it, -~.
