Humble Insect Said to Have Aided

1t appears that no source is so hum
BILE that the true-and trained
musician cannot gather inspiration
from 1t. 1t is told of Mendelssohn that
his beautiful midsummer Nights
Dream" music is indebted for at least
one Of its effects to the buzzing Of a
fly.
One summer day in the year 1925
Mendelssohn lay on the grass In the
Schonhauser gardens in Berlin, plan
ming the overture. A friend was with
him, and as they lay there fly buzzed
busily about their heads.
Mendelssohn said "Hush!" and lis
tened intently for time. Afterward,
when the overture was finished, the
composer pointed to the meditation Of
the cellos from B minor to + sharp
minor In the middle section and said

No. 3.-Three pounds Of wheat bran,
three pounds of middlings, three
pounds of cornmeal, one pound Of
crushed oats and one and one-half
pounds of beef scraps.
Charcoal, grit and oyster shells
should be provided so that the chicks
can help themselves whenever they
want to.
II a continued supply Of sour milk
can be obtained 1t may be fed sep
arately in a pan provided for the pur-
pose and the beef scrap In the above
rations reduced one-half. Sour and
sweet milk should not be fed alternate
ly, as such practice is likely to cause
bowel trouble. Whenever It is possible
growing chicks should be allowed free
range so they may obtain as much
natural green feed as they need in ad-
dition to bugs and worms. When
green feed cannot be obtained on range
such feed as sprouted oats, cut clover,
mangel wurzel beets. etc, should be
fed daily.
The importance of clean fresh water
: for chicks cannot be overemphasized.
In very hot weather fresh water should
be given to them twice a day. When
ever possible the pan Of water should
be placed In the shade to keep cool.
, The water pan should be cleaned every
day before fresh water Is added.
Plenty Of shade should be provided
for growing chicks. When allowed to
range In an orchard or cornfeld they
will not only find ample shade and
green feed, but will benefit the trees
or corn as well as themselves by de-
stroying bugs and worms. Sometimes
sunfiowers are grown for shade: Arti-

may be obtained by supporting frames
covered with burlap few feet above

CHICKS IN SUMMER.

Special Care Needed to Keep Them
Thrifty In Hot Weather.
Prepared by United States department of
agricultural
Chicks Matched just before the be-
ginning of hot weather must receive
especially good care II they are to be
raised successfully. In fact, the care
of growing chicks during the summer is
one Of the most important factors In
poultry raising. The chicks may have
been carefully brooded, but unless the
proper attention is given them during
the warm months their growth may be
seriously retarded.
Growing chicks should be provided
with a house that will give them n
place to stay in bad weather and at
night. No particular style of house is
recommended, but 1t should be so built
that 1t will provide the chicks with am
pie ventilation, dryness, sunlight, free
dom from drafts and be so arranged
that It can be cleaned easily and fire.
quently.
The lumber from piano and dry goods
boxes can be used in building such a
house and when covered with ordinary
roofing paper so as to keep out the
rain will make desirable quarters. 1t
Is suggested that such houses be built
on the colony plan so that they can be
moved from place to place, thus pro-
viding the chicks with fresh ground to
range over. Elevating such a house
six inches above the ground will assist
In keeping the floor dry by means Of
the circulation Of air, and such space
will also provide shade for the chicks.
Feed for growing chicks may be d.
vided into three classes-grain feed
dry mash and green feed.
In addition to the grain feed that the
chicks are likely to find when on free
range grain mixture should be given
them morning and evening. The fol-
lowing rations should produce good re.
suits:
Equal parts of cracked corn and
wheat. AS the chicks increase in size
oats may be added. To cheaper this
ration it may be changed to two parts
cracked corn and one part wheat.
When one part of oats is added to this
mixture, as the chicks increase in size,
the ration may be changed to three
parts cracked corn, one part wheat and
one part oats.
In addition to the above feed dry
mash should be fed in a hopper to
which the chicks have access at all
times. The following mixtures are
suggested:
No. 1.-Two pounds of cornmeal, one
pound of middlings, four pounds Of
oatmeal, two pounds Of wheat bran
and two and one-half pounds of beef
scraps.

1t was warm night at Asbury Park.
Mrs. Morris seemed to find the piazza
Of the hotel much more comfortable
than the crowded ballroom. She was
also quite well aware that she made q
more striking picture with the Opales-
cent crystals of her stunning evening
gown shimmering In the moonlight
than she would In the glare and crowd
within. Then too the powder did not

Dulcie Morris was not having as
good time as she had expected. To
have been three days at the seashore
without even SO much as the beginning
of filtration was certainly some waste
Of time and material In the way of
handsome frocks. Mrs. Morris was
thinking over these things with some
disappointment, when a lady she had
met at the hotel came toward her with
a strange man. He was prepossessing,
well dressed, and in the early thirties.
Mrs. Mears asked Mrs. Morris If she
might present the gentleman, and in
troduced him as Mr.. Locke from New
York.
II do hope Mrs. Morris, you will
take pity on Mr.. Locke. He is quite
strange here, knows no one, and didn't
care to meet the girls in there, because
he says he is not a dancing man." And
Mrs. Mears waved good night, and
sought the dancers.
II think you will be taking pity on
me-" said Dulcie Morris to the man.
And smiling, she graciously waved him
to chair which he lost no time In
taking. He murmured something about
her being very good and how fortunate
he was, which Dulcie interrupted by
saying she could not see the pleasure
In being grilled in that crowd on such
warm night trying to dance, even If

course Mr.. Locke agreed with her, and
hey soon found themselves getting on
inely toward better acquaintance.
81 was just wondering why I chose

we're going to Atlantic City, Newport,
,r the mountains; and was just max
ng up my mind to leave here and join

n bored look.
"Oh please don't make up your mind
to go Just yet" pleaded Locke In an
appealing tone which penetrated the
cold exterior of Dulcie. She caught
herself In the beginning of a smile,
and looked more bored than ever.
"Oh 1 don't know" she said. "a
pretty villa with a delightful house
party would be rather more exciting
than this"
"No doubt" he answered. "But 1
suppose I am selfish, like most men,
and had begun to hope you might
oblige Mrs. Mears, and take pity on
me-"
'Tm not sure you need It," she
laughed. "How long do you think OF

"Perhaps not more than two weeks"
he answered. 81 ought not to stay

that. OF course might leave 1t In

Before the evening was over Locke

pretty well fixed as to comfortable
income; and Dulcie had been Informed

Folly To Let Man Drink,
Says Druggist Brown of Cleveland
Who Gives Secret Home Remedy

remedy, the formula of an old German
chemist. To save other families from
the curse of drink and to help other
victims out of the murk and mire he
now makes the formula public. Any
druggist can help you If you long to
save loved one. Just ask your drug
gist for prepared tescum powders
and drop a powder twice day in tea,
coffee, milk or any other drink. Liq-
uOr soon ceases to taste the same,
the craving for it vanishes and 10,
one more drunkard is saved without
knowing why he lost the taste for
strong drink.
NOTE-Powdered tescum referred
to above should not be given except
where it is desirable to destroy all
taste for alcoholic drinks. Women
who approve of moderate drinking
and believe moderate drinkers safe
should not give tescum only when
they see, as most do in time, that
the danger line is plainly near Since
this formula has been published,
Thistlethwaite and other druggists
have filled it repeatedly.-Adv.

OUT THE CONSENT OR kNOWL-
EDGE OF THE DRlNkER

Cleveland, Ohio. A woman who
lets man drink is foolish, says Drug
gist Brown, for no man who drinks
even little bit is safe. A woman can
break the drink habit in few weeks
for half what man spends on liquor
in the same time, and tie drinker
need never know she did it, For the
sake and safety of both stop the
drink habit in its beginning. Let the
first Whit Of liquor on his breath be
your danger signal, but even if he
is rum-soaked through and through do
not despair; he can be saved and it
is your duty to save him. Druggist
Brown knows the awful curse of
strong drink because he himself has
been victim. A loving sister res
cued him from the brink of a drunk
ards grave and kept her secret ten
years. then she told him how she did
it. She saved him from the demon
drink, rescued him from his own de-
PRAYED self by means of secret
