POSTAGE STAMPS IN HISTORY
scrupIes That Seem Amusing Enter
tained by Royalties Whose Pic
tures Were Used.

The English post Office announce
ment invalidating all the stamps issued
in Queen Victoria's reign affected q
considerable number of varieties. From
table published not long ago in
L'Echo de Ia Timbroglogie, the French
philatelic journal, it appears that no
fewer than 3,193 different Victorian
stamp portraits had been issued up to
the end of 1909. King Edward figures
upon 1880 different stamps. Outside
the ranks of royalty Bolivar tops the
list with 213 stamps, or nearly twice
as many as Columbus, who has been
represented 119 times .
When postage stamps first came in
to use, some people urged that the
efhgy of majesty is too sacred to serve
as label for letters, the Manchester
Guardian observes. "Have you seen
the stamps yet?" wrote one ardent
loyalist in 1840. This is the greatest
insult offered the queen" King Ferdt
nand of Sicily had a special postmark
manufactured in the shape of frame,
so that stamps could be obliterated
without his portrait being struck by
the postal officials. The smaller the
monarch the more he has to worry
about his majesty.

Fact. a. to Sleep.

A recent investigation into the char
acteristics of sleep quoted by Profes'
scr Jastrow of England reveals a strik.
ing division Of sleep conditions be
tween the sexes. At the same time
it shows that people. as q whole.
vary little from the average. and that
most people sleep in about the same
way. People who are troubled sleep
ers really get as much sleep, but
they do so more jerkily.
The first quarter of nights sleep
possesses more rest than all the re.
naming three-quarters put together.
This gives a scientific reason for the
old proverb, "An hours sleep before
midnight is worth two hours after.
Not that midnight has anything to do
with it, but that the worth of sleep
does lie in the first part of it, and in
early times nearly every one was in
bed a couple hours before midnight.

A Puzzled Artist.

Achenbach, the German artist, enjoy.
ed vogue some years ago. A certain
collector had bought from an art deal
er seascape represented as genu'
inc Achenbach. Afterward it was
pronounced to be copy. The buyer
brought an action against the dealer,
who turned the tables by declaring
that his picture was genuine and the
other was copy. Achenbach himself
was summoned by the courts to tell
which was which. Amazed at the alb.
solute similarity of the two paintings,
he gazed at them for long time, In.
spected them closely, front and back,
shifted them and then frankly admitted
he could not tell which was the, orig
inal and which the copy.

PREPARE GEESE FOR MARKET
Many Farm Floeks Would Pay Hand
someiy II Proper Attention Paid
to Fattenina OF Fowls.

There are many reasons why geese
and ducks are not more popular table
fowls than they are, but the chief rea,
son is that they are 80 poorly fitted
for the market.
Many farm flock at ducks and
geese would pay moro handsome
profit If some attention was paid to
the fattening of it.
First, young duck or goose must
be had for fattening. Stock that is
too old is not sweet and tender as 1t
should be. One cannot build up a
reputation by selling It.
Old stock, II less than three or four
seasons of age, is better for breeding
purposes than for market.
Youngsters hatched from the eggs of
yea9ling and two-year-old ducks. and
geese are the most vigorous.

EXERCISE FOR LAYING HENS
When Feeding Grain Scatter It Far
and Wide and Make Fowls Hustle
70 Gather Il Up.

In the first place do not overfeed.
Bear in mind that If hen is to be
kept in laying condition, she must
have exercise. When you feed grain,
do not put it in trough where the
hens can stand and eat their fill, but
scatter It far and wide, as the hens
will find every grain. If the show 10
on the ground after the cold season
sets in, throw the grain in leaves Or
cut straw, 30 as to keep them busy.
Do not feed grain exclusively, but give
variety. Allow ground meat or
meat and bone fresh from the butch.
or, three times a week. Vary the
grain, feeding corn, wheat and oats,
and give cabbage, cooked turnips,
clover leaves or any other food that
the hens will eat. 1
