Curing Leprosy.

Some weeks ago the Courant men, tioned that q Cuban had asserted that he had discovered cure for leprosy and had so far impressed the Havana authorities that commission of phy- sicians had been appointed to investi- gate the matter. It now appears a leper no further away than Pennsyl- vania is so much improved in health that he has been released from quaran- tine. It is asserted that while bacilli are found in nodules on his face, his blood shows no trace of them or of the disease, and the authorities of Wilkesbarre, which have been keeping him and his family in quarantine at an expense of 5000 q year. have put an end to the outlay by removing the quarantine. It may be supposed that the man, Joseph Norman, will not be altogether popular at social gatherings for some time to come, but it is signiti- cant that his condition has so far i'm proved that he is permitted to be al large.-Hartford Courant.

Truth and Evaslon-

The cruelest lies are often told in silence. A man may have sat in a room for hours and not opened his teeth and yet come out of that room disloyal friend or a vile calumniator. And how many loves have perished be- cause. from pride, or spite, or diff dence, or that unmanly shame which withholds q man from daring to be- tray emotion, a lover, at the critical point of relaxation has but hung his head or held his tongue? And again, lie may be told by truth, or truth conveyed through lie. Truth to facts is not always truth to sentiment; and part of the truth, as often happens in answer to question, may be the foul est calumny. A fact may be an ex- ception; but the feeling is the law, and 1t is that you must neither garble, nor belle to tell the truth, rightly un- derStood, is not to state the true facts, but convey true impression truth in spirit. not truth to letter, is the true veracity.--Robert Louis Ste- venSOn.

WHY POULTRY WILL PAY
 BETTER

The importance of the poultry in- dustry in this country is scarcely ap- preciated. There is hardly farmer that does not keep some kind of fowls and many have large flocks of various kinds. Even where no fowls are sold and no records kept poultry furnishes food and saves the farmer much ex- pense in nutritious foods that, without poultry and eggs, must be bought.
 The domestic fowls are producing annually in the United States over $600,000,000 worth of eggs and poul- try and the combined value of all poultry products in the world must be a billion dollars.
 Poultry raising is a modern side line on the farm. Only in recent years has much attention been given to poultry as profitable sidelne or even for the family table. When we think of the magnitude of the industry and remember that modern poultry raising Is recent we are impressed with it's possibilities for the future.
 That the demand is increasing for poultry and eggs there can be no doubt. Our cities and towns are in- creasing in population and this means a larger consumption of poultry pro- ducts. There is also greater demand for lighter but more nutritious diet than where more people lived by mus cular toll. Where there is greater wealth and higher compensation the demand for these products seems to be greater.
 It does not seem that the increase m the prices of meat has caused eggs to advance, for when eggs were sell Ing at from six to eight cents dozen fewer were consumed than now, when dozen eggs costs more than a pound of steak. Probably a better knowledge of the nutritive value of eggs, their palatability and the difficulty with which they mad be adulterated has had much to do with the greater de- mand for them When the cook takes lresh eggs, breaks them and prepares them quickly as she pleases, she knows she has pure, wholesome and nutritious foods. And they may be prepared Tn many ways. Besides this, the use of eggs in cooking is now al- most lndisrensable.-Farm and Ranch.

Finding the shop closed, he inquired as to the whereabouts of the proprie- tor, and, ascertained that he was at tending the fete, about mile out of town, set out after him. When he ar- rived there balloon was on the point of ascending, and he saw his man step- ping into the car.

\ TIP ON FABRICATION OIL

In the December Farm and Preside this appears:
 I have been told,' writes South pakota reader, that I should use a medium lubricating oil for my car in summer and light oil in winter. Now
 cannot understand why it should 'naNe any difference, because the en- s"e runs very nearly as hot in winter as It does in summer
 Without knowing the make of car ana the kind of bling system used. a ueilhlte recommendation cannot be made in this case, but the advice to use a lighter cil in winter is correct in n'oSt cases. Cylinders receive their 4uorlcatlon chiefly from some form oe

 An Indiana man recently conceived the idea of keeping a swarm of bees in hive in his downtown office. The hive is placed close to a radiator and window, so that in the summer the bees will have no trouble in flying out in search of honey, and in the winter they are kept warm by the heat from the radiator. In the spring, when the flowers begin to bloom, the bees are tempted from their hive by a row of chocolate creams, and from the win dow sill where the candy is set, it is but "step" to the fields where the flowers of the spring are blooming in abundance. The yield of honey last year amounted to slightly over 50 pounds, and this year an even greater supply is eXpected.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.
