Shortest Prison Sentence.

The shortest recorded sentence is
that to which a woman was sentenced
at the Cookstown (Ulster) sessions.
The woman pleaded guilty to stealing
a quantity of horse hair from her EN-
plOyer, who said she was good work
er, but addicted to the drinking of
ether, which was the cause of her
lapse. He did not wish her to be pros
ecuted. A previous record of six
weeks Imprisonment for false pre-
tences in 1913 barred her from being
dealt with as a first offender. She was
ordered imprisoned until the rising of
the court and as hers was the last
case on the list, the length of her SEN
tence was exactly two minutes and a
half.-London Mail.

THE DEAD DOOR

There is hardly a house in the land
that does not possess its dead door
door that. hardly ever used and
which stands as an ever-present re-
minder that something might be done
to relieve its bare monotony. There
are so many ways that a deft hand
can take the curse off Of an unused
door that there is small excuse. for
having one remain a problem.
To begin with, the panels may be
decorated by hanging them with
prints. The frames are put on fiat
and the effect rs at once pleasing. It
is sure to attract attention. Delicate
latticlng may be built over the panels
and ivy used to give a novel touch
to the door. Panels of cretonne or
chintz can be used with marked effect
by the very simple process of fasten-
ing them in place with light molding.

CTO BE CoNTINUEDJ
SUPREME IN HIS EGoTISM
Man So Sure Of Himself That He Suf-
fers Little From the Desire
to Possess.

Men do not, as rule, suffer very
much from the desire to possess, be
cause they are so sure that they do
possess, because they find it so diff
cult to conceive that their wife can
find any other man attractive, writes
w. L. George in the Atlantic Monthly.
They are too well accustomed to be-
ing courted, even If they are old and
repulsive, because they have power
and money; only they think it is be-
cause they are men. Beyond a jealous
care for their wives fidelity, which I
suspect arises mainly from the feeling
that an unfaithful wife is a criticism,
they do not ask very much. But wom-
en- suffer more deeply because they
know that man has lavished on them
for centuries a condescending admira-
ton; that the king who lays his crown
mt their feet knows that his is the
crown to give. While men possess by
right of possession women possess
only by right of precariOus conquest.
They feel it very bitterly this fugitive
empire, and their greatest tragedy is
to find themselves growing little
older, uncertain of their power, for
they are afraid, as age comes, of los
ing their man, while I have never
heard of a husband afraid of losing
his wife, or able to repress his sur
prise If she fOrsook him.

"cOws Have Such Funny Backs"

upon. She shook her head violently
and twitched the rope from Larks
hand, gave n scornful toss Of her
dainty head, and struck out madly for
home. With great presence of mind,
Carol fell fiat upon the cows neck, and
hung on for dear life, while Lark, In
terror. started out in pursuit.
"Help! Helpw she cried loudly.
Papa Papa Papa"
In this way they turned in at the
parsonage gate, which happily stood
open. AS luck would have it, Mr.. Starr
was standing at the door with two men
who had been calling on him, and hear
ing Larks frantic cries, they rushed to
meet the wild procession, and had the
unique experience of seeing a parson-
age girl riding fiat on her stomach on
the neck Of galloping Jersey, with
another parsonage girl in mad pursuit.
Blinkie stopped beside the barn, and
turned her head about inqulringly
Carol slid to the ground, and buried
her face in her hands at sight of the
two men with her father. Then, with
never word, she lit out for the house
at top speed. The three men sat down
on the ground and burst into hearty
laughter.
Lark came upon them as they sat
thus, and Lark was angry. She
stamped her foot with a violence that
must have hurt her.
II don't see anything to laugh at"
she cried passionately, ut was awful,
it was just awful Carrie might have
been killed lit"
"Tell us all about 1t, Lark" gasped
her father. And Lark did so, smiling
a little herself, now that her fears
were relieved. poor Carol" she said,
"sheIl never live down the humilia-
ton. / must go and console her"
In little while Carol felt much bet
ter. But she talked it over with Pru-
dence very seriously.
II hope you understand, Prudence,
that shall never have anything more
to do with Bllnkle She can die of
for all care. I'll never
take her to and from the pasture again.

DO AWAY WITH ROSE PESTS

To do away with rose pests mix by
rapid stirring tablespoonful of coal
oil with a pint Of very hot, strong
soap suds, and when well mixed add
this to enough hot suds to make a gal
Ion.
Mix pint of unslaked lime with a
quart of water and when settled pour
the clear lime water into the coal
oil emulsion, adding to this a tea
spoonful of paris green, stirring it all
rapidly and thoroughly.
Keep this mixture well stirred when
using and spray or syringe the leaves,
under the upper side with plenty of
the mixture.
1t will be good for the bush, If not
healthy for the bugs and slugs.

Niles Floods Above Normal.

The River Nile reached an abnor.
mally high level this year, though the
annual floods form part and parcel OF
the national life of Egyptians, who are
never taken by surprise when such
events occur. The condition of affairs
however, proved sufficiently alarming
to warrant the government in putting
into effect the decree of 1887, which
obliges all able-bOdied men to assist
in the protection of threatened regions
under pain of Imprisonment or fine
whenever the stream of the ancient
Pharaohs gets beyond control.

ODD BITS OF FURNITURE

The big shops are showing more
than ever odd pieces of furniture for
gift purposes. More and more people
are coming to appreciate the value Of
the occasional furniture. 1t finds ex-
preston this winter in pottery vases,
single chairs, stands for flowers,
candle sticks, handy tables, fireside
stools in walnut and oak, and in drop
leaf tables that can be made to do
duty for all manner of purposes. In.
dividual bits of crystal are also much
sought, in many cases the selection be-
ing made from such stock as will per-
nit other pieces to be added from
time to time as the occasion may
present.

FOR AN ATTRACTIVE, HALL

One Of the most striking halls that
have been designed recently shows q
background Of natural wood. In the
instance in question the wood is gum.
When treated with stain and wax it
takes on an antique, dusty, brown tone
that makes it perfect background for
decorative purposes. An antique rug,
in low tones, with a like design for
the stair carpet, gives a rich appear
ance. The hangings are deep mul.
berry-colored velvet, trimmed with
galloons Of dull gold. Dark walnut
furniture is used.

And the girls bowed their heads.
Iiev. Mr.. Morgan cleared his thront,
and began: "Our Father we thank thee
for this table"
There was more OF the blessing but
the parsonage girls heard not one ad.
dltlOnal phrnse-eXcept Connie, who
followed him cOnsclentiOusly through
every word, Carol burst into merry
laughter, close upon his reyerent
"Amen''-and after one awful glare
at her sister, Prudence Joined In, and
soon II was a rollickIng group around
the parsonage table. Mr.. Morgan him
self smiled uncertainty. He was puz-
zled. More, he was embarrassed, But
as soon as Carol could get her breath,
she gasped out an explanation.
"Y0u were just-right, Mr.. Morgan
to give thanks-for the table There's
nOthlng-on Ito be thankful forW
And the whole family went off once
more into pe0ls of laughter.
Mr., Morgan had very little appetite
that day. lie did not seem 10 be so
fond Of sweet corn as he had assured
Prudence. He talked very little, too.
And ms soon as possible he took his
hat and walked hurriedly away. He
never called nc the parsonage again.
A few weeks after this Carol dlstin-
gulshed herself again, and to her last
ing modification. A man living only
six blocks from the parsonage had gen
erously offered Mr.. Starr free pastur-
age for his pretty little Jersey in his
broad meadow, and the offer was CRATE
fully accepted. This meant that every
evening the twins must walk after the
COW, and every morning must take her
back for the days grazing.
One evening, as they were starting
out from the meadow homeward with
the dOclle animal Carol stopped and
gazed at Blinkie rehectively.
Lark" she said, ~ just believe TO
my soul that l could ride this COW.
She's so gentle, and I'm such a good
hand at sticking on"
"Carol" calculated Lark. "Think
how 1t would look for a parsonage girl
to go down the street riding a cow"
"But there's no one TO see" protest
ed Carol. And this was true. For the
parsonage was near the edge Of town,
and the girls passed only five houses
on their way home from the meadow
and all of them were well back from !
the road.
Lark argued and pleaded, but Carol |
was firm. 81 must try IT," she insist
ed, "and II 1t doesn't go well can
slide Off. You can lead her Lark"
The obllging Lark boosted her sister ]
up, and Carol nimbly scrambled into |
place. riding astride.
I've got to ride this way" she said. |
Cows have such funny backs l |
couldn't keep on any other way. If
see anyone coming, I'll slide for it,"
For a while all went well. Lark led |
Blinkie carefully, gazing about anx-
ously to see that no one approached.
So they advanced to within two blocks
IF the parsonage. BY this time Blinkie
concluded that she was being imposed

ART IN GARDEN MAKING
By ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYsEF

Oy GLlGNbE ~ VAN DEN ElO SEi'
One may take the most expensive
garden decoration that money can buy,
as is shown in the picture which ac-
companies this little story, and get
from 1t an idea that does not have to
depend upon the purse for its develop
ment. In the picture is shown one of
the prettiest bits of decorative garden
| art in America. Aside from the bit of
statuary in the center, nature and
small expense supplied the rest of the
setting. Note the grouping of the bulb
/ plants in the foreground and the con-
summate art with which the gardener
worked in the background
1t will be seen that he has worked
in masses in both directions. He has
made his effect in the curved row of
bulb plants merely by massing; the
profuse background has been grouped
much as florist or a country boy pre-
pairing a bouquet for his sweetheart
from the wild flowers of the wood,
would assemble cut flowers to get a
loose and graceful arrangement. There

studied effect. But the study is there
just the same. 1t is given to the task
Of getting away from the stiff arrange
ment indicated by the Mother Goose
jingle:
How does your garden grow?
With fairy bells and cookie shells.
And pretty maids all in a row.
Real art is always the nearest pos
sible approach to nature. Nobody ever
saw nature set out a lot of plants in
regular form. The gardener who de-
signed this garden worked to have his
massing background take as nearly as
possible the direction that nature
would give them.
One may substitute a very modest
center decoration for the statuary and
still keep intact the design. l am glad
to be able to give this wonderful de-
sign by so famous an artist for the
use of the many readers who constantly
try to make garden something more
than mere place to plant things.
