Indlscreet George.


No gentleman will wake a lady
up at 2 o'clock in the morning. and
ask her what she wants for a birth
day present.
That is what George Colburn did
and he is very sorry for It.
George and Matilda Swan have been
very good friends. They room at the
same house..
Tuesday morning at the time men,
toned, George woke up and thought
Of Matilda.
He got up. tiptoed over to her door
and called. He called several times
before she awoke.
Matilda, angered at being disturbed,
swore at George. and ordered him
back to the hay.
He stood there a minute, like a
mummy, and then he got real mad.
Forcing the door open. he dragged
Matilda from her bed in her mighty
by her hair and put his foot in her
face.
Her screams woke up everybody in
the house. George was overpowered
and arrested.
He only wanted to see what she
wanted for her birthday. he told the
court. and got a cussing for his
trouble. s -
That isn't all he got. The court
gave him thirty days.

In the Red Cross there is no high saaried bureau

Knife Superstltlons.

The various knife superstitions are
easily explained. 1t is unlucky to give
a knife to a friend, because knives
sever things, and might sever friend
ship; but if he gives you a halfpenny
in return the danger is avoided, for
his gift is a token of continued affec-
ton. 1t is unlucIzy to place ones knife
and fork Crosswise on an empty plate,
because it invites crosses and misfor-
tune, also recalling the Christian sym
Dol of suffering.

Production of Leghorns.

The average production of eggs by
hens of all kinds and ages in the
United States is 50. Unsolicited White
Leghorns, however, produce an aver
age of 130 eggs for the first year, 12O
for the second, ITO for the third 50
for the fourth, and fall off about ten
year up to the eighth. These fig
ures are from a bulletin OF the Utah
experiment station. If the first year
production be low, the second will be
high and vice versa, the total produc-
ton for three years being about the
same.
