DOG FANClERS FACING RUIN
Dealers in England See Disaster in
High Taxes Placed on Animals
to Conserve Food Supply.

Dog fanciers in England, especially
the women, say that the new dog
taxes are going to kill the business
they have been carefully building up
for years. They do not object to the
suggested increase on old licenses, but
they fear the big tax on new dogs Is
going to brighten away all their Gus
toners.
There are many British women with
small incomes living in the country
who have invested most of their money
in dogs as a business. They were
willing to mark time till the end Of
the war looking forward to a revival
in their business afterward. Trade is
of course slack just now, but with no
money coming in at all they will be
unable to retain their kennels.
One fancier spoke bitterly of the
sensational stories told in certain-quar-
tiers about pampered dogs and the inn
possible amount of food they were ac-
cused of eating.

Insurance Policy and MARRIAGE.

"The important thing is that the in
surance pOlicy-big or little-should
come into every home with the mar
riage license. 1t should precede the
savings bank account, the home, yes,
even new clothes, or butter on the
table. No man has a right to take a
girl out of her fathers home without
protecting her from starvation in case
of the accident of death.
"There comes the unhappy word
again-death. Yet the shadow of it
need not rest heavily upon us. The I'M
fortunate thing about a will is that it
is associated in the average mans
life only with death. 1t should be
associated with life. The time for man
TO make a will is today, while he can
do it with a smile on his lips, and the
jests and good wishes Of his witnesses
ringing cheerily in his ears. Such a
man cannot cheat death of it's ulti-
mate victory; but he robs it of it's
sting, for he has made death powerless
to bring poverty and distress to those
who are left behind. Home
Companion.

Hedges VS.. Fences.

In many parts of the country hedges
are taking the place Of fences, and the
change is certainly a desirable one
from the standpoint of beauty. They
require little, if any, more care than
a fence, and are equally as servieeable.
OF course, we don't mean that hedges
are more desirable for fields than
fences, but as a surrounding for the
house and yard they are preferable.
There are two general kinds of hardy
hedges, the deciduOus and evergreen,
but the former is more common in this
country and seems to meet with the
most favor. In planting deciduous
shrubs, a trench 4 feet wide and q
inches deep should be dug the length
of the row. A drainage should then
be provided of broken stone and the
bed filed with the best soil it is posi-
bic to obtain. In planting, care should
be taken to follow the direction given
by the nurseryman, so that when the
shrubs mature they will be close
enough together-Exchange

WAS FILLED WITH CURIOSITY
He Was Just Waiting to See Whether
Wife Would Carry Out Threat
to Go Back to Mothers.

The man was standing behind tree
in front of an apartment house in
cross street when the cop on that beat
came pounding along on the sidewalk.
1t was close to midnight and naturally
the cop stopped and looked at the man
standing behind the tree.
"Howdy." says the cop, by way Of
opening conversation.
You're another" replied the man
good-naturedly.
"Whuchuh doia'-waitin' for some
body?" inquired the brave policeman.
Nope"
"Just standin' there, hey?"
you've hit it."
Live near here, do your"
fright in there" says the citizen,
jerking his thumb in the direction of
the apartment house he was standing
in front of.
The cop looked at him thoughtfully
for a minute.

says, "and then again mebby it is. /

"Well?" says the cop.

just about midnight now, and I'm like

The cops curiosity ceased at that
point, and he walked on down the
street, whistling, without waiting to
see the thing out-Cleveland Plain

Kissinu the Black Stone.

AS well die Jew or a Christian as
not make the pilgrimage to Mecca, said
Mahomet and no obligation of Islam Is
more piously discharged. 1t is believed
that the ritual connected with the visit
to the Ka'aba-the square building
and the kissing of the black stone go
back to days of idolatry, the "time of
ignorance" before the new faith
bloomed, says the London Chronicle.
The black stone, which measures
about six inches by eight, is believed
to have fallen from Paradise, to have
been guarded during the deluge and
handed TO Abraham by Gabriel when
the Ka'aba was built. Certain parts
of the ceremonial-the throwing Of
stones at the devil, and the imitation
of Hagar's distracted wanderings in
the desert, are supposed to have had
significance for the pre-Mohammedan
times as well as for Islam.

An AII-around Surprise.

When the first shipment of frozen
eggs had arrived, their extreme hard
ness astonished the brokers, and gen.
tleman calling at a brokers' office was
amazed TO See him taking aim at the
wall with an egg.
what the dickens are you dOingT"
he asked.
But the man let drive, the only re-
suit being a slight dent in the wall.
The thing being explained to him,
he took a couple of eggs and put them
in his trousers pocket, intending TO
startle his wife with them. Arriving
home, he waited till the family were
seated at dinner and then banged one
of the eggs at the new wallpaper.
But the smile quickly faded from his
face. The egg had thawed.

Meaning of "America.n

What does the word America"
mean? Few know. 1t is derived from
the word Amabric, proper name
which represented the old Germanic
ideal of heroism and leadership. Then
the Norman French softened it to
Amaury. Then in Italy they changed
it to Amelrigo. But the juxtaposition
of the 81" and the ~ bothered the
Italians, and it became Amerrigo, and
finally with one 'r." Thus it became
the name of Amerigo Vespucci, Flor
entine merchant and explorer. And 1t
is in honor of his voyages of explora-
ton to the new world that a German
geographer, Martin Waldseemuller by
name, gave the name America to the
continent-Ladies' Home Journal.
