Welded Glass,

Welded glass suitable for certain OPP
teal instruments and other apparatus
is novel material, that is stated to
be of great practical value as well
as much interest AS the welding proc
ess is described by Parker and Dalla-
day to the Faraday society Of London,
the glass surfaces to be Joined are
placed in good optical contact under
pressure, and are heated to carefully
predetermined temperature, which, to
avoid distortion of OFFICIALLY worked
surfaces, must not approach too near
what is defined as the "annealing
point" This point Of appreciable sof-
tening is determined for any kind Of
glass by noting the temperature at
which the internal heat stresses seen
in the glass with polarized light quite
suddenly disappears. Similar glasses
unite perfectly well below this point ;
but with very unlike kinds, the softer
becomes distorted before the harder is
hot enough to make good weld.

1t did, indeed, seem long time
coming. AS far back as 1869. speaking
primarily for the soldiers of the Con-
federacy, had proposed that the three
war amendments to the Constitution
be accepted and ratified as the treaty
of peace between the North and the
South. There followed pretty wran-

1t could be extracted, nothing was very
much worth while.
Sectionalism flourished apace on

crate brigadiers made kind of common
cause with the valants of the bloody

HOW POET QU!ETED HORSE
Incident Proved British Laureate Had Something More Than Modicum
 of Common Sense.

Tennyson once arrived at Haslemore station carrying heavy parcel of books; and as his own carriage had not arrived to meet him, he was glad to accept the offer of lift home.
 Going up the steep hills to Black. down, Tennyson, with his characterist- ic consideration for animals, suggested that they and the books were too heavy for the pony to drag.
 The two men therefore got out and walked for some distance in front of the trap, until they discovered that the books had dropped out.
 The owner of the pony asked Tenny- son to stand at the animals head while he went back for the books. These he found hundred yards or more down the hill, and on his return he found the pony had been restive, but had quickly become quiet.
 Knowing that it disliked strangers, he wondered how Tennyson had kept it quiet What was his surprise to learn that the poet had managed the affair by holding watch close to the animals ear.-London Times.

For those who cannot obtain the in gredients to mix the above mash, 1t is possible to prescribe simpler method of feeding hens for eggs that will give satisfactory results. Buy few bush els of cowpeas. Make a mixture of 40 pounds whole or cracked cowpeas and 60 pounds of whatever other whole grains you are now feeding. \ formula we have used (but others are equally good provided the cowpeas are 40 pounds) is: Cowpeas, 40 pounds; corn or cracked corn, 90 pounds; cane seed. 20 pounds, and wheat, 10 pounds. Feed this mixture liberally twice daily in litter and do not give the hens any mash at all You will need only ground oyster shells, broken plaster, or ground limestone to supply the lime for mak- ing the shell. Keep the lime product in box where the hens can eat it con Stantly. And last, but not least, keep a bucket of fresh water before the layers, as eggs contain 65 per cent of water.-Clemson College Bulletin.

 What do you know about him?"
 Well, I guess Elsie Burns knows | about him! She introduced him to me-"
 Yes, she used to know him ten years ago, when she was just d kid.n
 Well, what have you to say about him?" she retorted.
 T don't like the look in his eyes" That's lots isn't it?" And the girl turned angrily from him, and walked away.
 Earle Terry looked after her, stand ing still in his perplexity. His face was white and set with the agony l tugging at his heart For year he had loved Elizabeth with all the in- tensity of a deep, earnest nature. Six months they had been engaged, and now this cloud threatened to burst in to storm wrecking his hope of hap piness.
 l Elizabeth was only a trifle over eighteen, but her parents being in mod crate circumstances, she had felt on leaving school, she must do something to earn her living. But an indulgent father and mother. had wished her to first enjoy her release from studies, and when Earle Terry, teller in the one bank of the little town, began to pay her marked attentions, his suit was regarded with favor by Elizabeth's | father, who knew the steady, indus trious character of the young man.
 The charity benefit brought Eliza beth out in a new light. She did fair | ly well la her small role, and in- | judicious friends exaggerated her suc- cess. Her mind was made up to go on the stage, and the mild opposition of her parents was soon overcome. Fernleigh had one theater, and was town of one-night stands. Soon af- ter the benefit, as Elizabeth was walk ing down the main street with her chum, Elsie Burns, the latter suddenly halted before d well-groomed man of about thirty.
 Basil Winterl" she exclaimed And the two were soon in an animated con- versation.
 Nuy yuu were JuSl u hluule Wueu left town. How did you know me?" he asked.
 70 your picture is out in front of the theater-and you haven't changed so much"
 Come and see me tonight. Bring your mother, and" looking at Eliza beth, "your friend"
 He hastily wrote out three passes to the play, and invited the two girls into a nearby restaurant for ice cream. His dashing manner, and bright, interesting talk took Elizabeth by storm. She had never in her life met such a man. She was fascinated, :. and went home with her head in a whirl. He had asked them to be sure to wait for him, after the performance at the stage door, and Elizabeth in a fever of excitement dressed in the best of her limited wardrobe, and scarcely finished her dinner in her haste to go.
 Basil Winter, in the role of the un- happy, but noble, seif-sacrificing hero, looked much handsomer than on the street. He was really good actor, and the conquest of Eiizabeth's poor little heart was complete. After the

Hens that do not lay when eggs are selling at the present high prices and then take delight in trying to beat the record when their eggs are only worth 15 or 20 cents a dozen, are like a good many other things that cannot be de- pended on at the time of greatest need. However. the hens should not always receive the blame, because, in many instances, they do not receive the food products from which they can manu facture eggs.
 The extension division of Clemson college has been recommending an egg mash containing one-third by weight of prime, bright cottonseed meal and the remaining two-thirds to consist of equal parts of cOrnmeal, wheat shorts and ground oats. This mash is a sat isfactOry food to make eggs, and it is kept dry before the hens in hopper or box constantly. Then d mixture of whole grains is scattered in litter twice daily to force the hens to exer- else.

smart sports clothes, and there is every reason to predict success for it. In the three-piece matched sets-para- sol, hat and bag-it ought to be par ticularly effective.
 There are those who insist that the greatest and most interesting of all fashion parades is that which comes to pass annually at Palm Beach. Their basis of comparison may not include all the worlds fashion centers, but no one will dispute the supremacy of Palm Beach in America-unless some loyal New Yorker makes so bold. This display of the best of everything in ap- parel is interesting to everyone who wants to know what the coming spring has in store for us. There are many visitors who go there expressly to see which way the wind blows--in fash ions.

 '"Tm sick of your nagging and jeal- ousy !'
 Elizabeth Farley gave a defiant look at the young man, whose pleading, honest eyes sought to have convinced her of the reason and sincerity of his argument.
 Dear, it's not meant to be nag gfng. It's only that 1 want to keep you from trouble and unhappiness. Maybe I don't put 1t just as you'd like it-but I mean right"
 "But you can't understand" she cried. "I'm determined to make some thing of my life. Whats the use of having a talent if you don't use it. You said yourself I could act"
 "Yes, did. I think you were some actress in that play we gave for the Belgian sufferers-but that's different"
 70 yes, it's different if you work like a slave, and give your services for charity. But I want to make my living"
 You know you don't have to. IT want to make the living for you"
 "Yes, Earle-I know-but I can make more than you're earning. Why lots of actresses get a hundred dol lars a week"
 "Yes, and lots don't get more than twenty-five"

REGULARITY IS RIGHT PLAN
Farm Stock, Once Accustomed to Rou- tine of Living, Show Unrest at
 Any Change in Program.

Farm animals are creatures of habit, and once accustomed to a routine of living show unrest at any change. The feed stable or lot, therefore, should be free from disturbance and the pro- viding of feed and water should be uniform in time and manner.
 Animals soon learn when these are to occur, and as feeding time ap- breaches the secretions begin pouring from the various digestive glands in anticipation of the coming meal.
 The system of feeding and watering and the character of the rations should be changed gradually, and only for good cause. In feeding operations 4 changing period is usually a losing period.

 The logical choice in sweater coats to be worn with this skirt will be in oyster-White. either in silk jersey or in the same material as the skirt. In nearly all the new suits, sweater-eoats in plain colors accompany skirts in the same color, but striped or figured, like that in tfAe picture.
 The blouse shown is of fine white batiste, covered with narrow tucks. A frill about the wrists and at the edges of the fichu make the right kind of fin ish for it. The skirt has very narrow frill at the top. Ill lieu of a girdle, a heavy silk cord in black and white is happy thought.

The island Is nearly a rectangle 35 miles wide and 100 miles long, of great fertility, great beauty and healthful and almost per feet climate. Although the population is 320 to the square mile nearly all are engaged in horticulture. The chief crops are citrous fruits, coffee, coco nuts, pineapples, bananas and many other tropical fruits.

Millions Spent on Music.

If expenditure of money is any test, America can certainly claim the credit of being a musical country. Accord ing to an estimate compiled some time ago by an expert, the United States spends no less than $120000,000 on music every year. This is three times as much as the same country spends on its army and navy; while musical Germany" 1t is pointed out, spends ten times as much on it's army and navy as on it's music.
 In the American total, church music accounts for $10,000,000 a year. Tl.e sale of pianos reaches $27, 100000, of organs $2,000,000 of gramophones and records S13,000000, and of sheet music and music books g, 2,100,000.

TO PREVENT TOOLS BUSTING
Paste Made of TalIow or Lard and Graphite Will Prove Efficacious-
 Have Surface Dry.

No matter if tools are kept out of the wet, even the dampness of the air will cause them to rust A paste made of tallow or lard and graphite, with a little eamphor gum will prevent rust when applied and afterwards rubbed dry. Mix two parts grease to one of graphite. Add about one-fourth as much camphor gum as there is of the graphite.
 Get the tools quite clean and dry apply the paste and allow it to remain on all metal parts for 24 hours or longer, then rub dry. Tools treated in this way will not rust for several months, though exposed to damp air. Treat in this way every two or three months, not only tools, but any steel or iron surface

 The hat at the center of the group has noticeable crown, wider at the top and bottom than at the center. In passing. it is worth mentioning that crowns tend to height. This shape is covered with eornf1ower blue silk hav- ing stripes or gay colors. There is a fitted collar of black satin about the crown and cockade of narrow black ribbon at the front.
 The hat at the right is a similar model made of grass-green braid and 10 San silk, which it almost goes with out saying is gay1y colored. There is a bow of narrow green ribbon at the front.

The all-absorbing item in millinery interest for the past month has been the hats worn at Palm Beach. These include wide variety in straw or fab rics, or both combined. In the fabric hats there are many plain and figured silks, including jersey, natural pom gees, plain and figured crepe, and nov city weaves. Cotton crepes and wool jerseys appear also among sports mod els, and satin holds first place for tail- ored hats.
 In the three hats for sports wear pictured here the trend of taste toward brilliant color combinations is very
