Writers Are Queer Fish.

In an article which Emerson Hough,
the grest novelist. has written for the
American Magazine, he says:
"At one time it became necessary
in our household to discharge large
blond person who had never been any,
thing but an alien enemy to our dishes
and digestlons. AS she departed, full
of wrath, Goosta turned at the door
and remarked:
"'Vell, ay hope you get better girl
as may, ma'am! Az lax yOuse veil
enough; but your hoosban, hay ess
somehow kveer.'
perhaps Goosta was right. / make
no doubt that many believe that any
writing man is somehow queer. / be"
lieve my wife--a strictly competent
human being who keeps me jumping
through hoops-is of the same belief.
It looks strange to see a strong man,
who would have made a good black
smith, sit around with no means of
support except a typewriter and q
piece Of paper.
"Yes, perhaps Goosta was right. For
instance, have two places where l
work: One my home Office and one my
downtown Office. do copy at the for
mer and transact business at the lat
ter. On the desk at each place is a
skull, which / installed years ago as a
corrective measure. Across the fore
head Of each Is written the ominous
words intended to keep me from going
fishing, Life is shortr"

TYPICAL JOAN OF ICE FOReE

for French Woman After Hus.
band Had Fallen.

I can give you no better interpreta-
ton Of the character Of French woman
hood than to attempt to visualize what
will always remain In my memory as
the most touching sight have vet
seen in the war, Isaac F. Marcosson
writes in the Saturday Evening Post.
It was In the devastated region where
the Hun had left a trail of ruined
towns, blackened forests and despoiled
land in his wake.
l was on my way back from the
front, chilled and depressed by the
horizon of waste that hemmed me in.
Suddenly / heard steady hammering
"a strange sound it was in the midst
Of such desoIatlon-and no loneliness
is quite so utter as the solitude of the
ravaged places. I stopped my car, got
out and walked toward a dilapidated
house-the only structure with four
walls that remained in what was once
a thriving hamlet. When / reached
the spot this is what I saw.
A Woman stood at an lmprovised an.
vii, beating out a horseshoe. Her hus-
band as learned, had been black
smith. He had fallen in battle and
she wore his uniform. A child played
at her feet while the sparks flew up
ward. All she had in the world, save
this mite OF humanity and the ruins
Of her home, had been wiped out by
the war. Even the roof above her
head was wrecked. Yet she kept to
the task tiIat had once sustained her.
Between the strokes Of her hammer /
could hear the boom Of the far away
guns, sounding like the doom notes in
the last act Of ''Aida." II was q thrill.
ing and unforgettable contrast.
The woman of that rude forge was
the heroic incarnation of defiant will
the symbol of her sex. Some great
artist might have painted the scene
and made 1t the companion picture OF
the great canvas that depicts Joan Of
Arc walking with her vision In the
little churchyard at Domremy. These
two daughters of France are Of the
same immortal sisterhood.

STORE VEGETABLES WELL
| so THEY WILL KEEP WELL

All root crops are stored for winter
in practically the same way. Storage
hs accomplished by excavating shall
Cow pit five inches deep, three feet
wide, and any length Roots or cab
bage are then placed in the pit, with
the top of the mound thirty inches
above the surface of the ground. A
slight covering Of straw or leaves Is
placed over the vegetables to keep
them clean. Soil is then placed over
fhe straw or leaves to thickness OF
eight to twelve inches-enough to
afford protection against the coolest
days in winter.
Beets, carrots and turnips should a.
ways have the tops removed before
they are placed In storage, as the tops
will rot and cause the roots to decay.
Care should be taken TO avoid bruisingt
the roots at the time of placing in,

wire spIints for Wounds.

A new kind Of surgical spllnt In
which galvanized wire netting takes
the place of wood has been put on the
market, says the Popular Science
Monthly. The steel entering into the
construction of this woven wire spllnt
is so tempered that it can be nodded
by hand. Being galvanized, the wire
is sterilized and at the same time weld
ed into a single piece that cannot fray
out at loose ends.
AS it is porous. it allows a certain
amout of evaporation and air circula-
ton to the dressings beneath, which
wood or plaster does not. The splint
comes rolled like a bandage and is
lighter and less bulky than wooden
splints.

TO mate with the ewes Of your
nock be sure to have a purebred ram.
Select ram from one of the medium
wooded early-maturing mutton breeds.
The Southdown, Shropshire, Hamp-
shire, and Dorset are in most popular
favor. You will do well to adopt, II
possible, the breed of sheep that Is in
favor in your community in order that
the entire lamb crop Of the commu-
nifty may be uniform. Select an &C
tive, vigorous ram from one to three
years old. See that he is symmet-
rical and evenly developed and is well
covered with firm flesh and a dense
fleece. Be sure that he is strong and
straight In his legs.
Do not permit the ram to run with
the breeding flock. Feed him enough

Marksmanship and Muscles.

Workmanship with the rife is not
so much matter of keenness of sight
as Of muscular steadiness. Arthur l.
Gates of Teachers college, New York,
describes in the Journal of Applied
Psychology some tests made by him
which prove that the most accurate
marksmen are those whose muscular
control is so perfect that slight dis
fractions, subjective anxiety and auto
suggestion do not disturb it.
