Sympathetic Inks.

CUES. Please tell me how to make
ink that will remain invisible until
the paper on which it is written is
exposed to heat or lght.-Ans. Char
acters written with weak solution of
nitrate of copper remain invisible I'M
til paper is heated when they come
out in red color. Writing in ink
consisting of slightly alcoholic solu-
ton of bromide of copper cannot be
seen until paper is heated gently. 1t
disappears when paper cools. Plain
lemon juice may also be used. Char
acters, il is said, do not show up until
moderately hot smoothing iron is APP
piled to paper when they appear in
brown color. Write with solution of
one part nitrate of silver in 1000
parts distilled water if you wish
characters to remain invisible until
paper is exposed to light.

AT LAST.

Washington, May-It was learned
here to-day that ex-senator James
Hamilton Lewis, Illinois, Democratic
whip in the Sixty-fifth Congress, who
has been making a tour of the West
as representative of the Administra-
tion to sound out sentiment of the
people on the League of Nations, has
notified Democratic National Com
mitteemen and officials here in Wash,
ington that one prevailing sentiment
is for ousting Postmaster General
Burleson.
Because Lewis has learned first
hand of this feeling; because he has
been persona grata with the White
House, and because he was selected
as the Administration agent to cir
culate through the West, members of
the Democratic National Committee
feel that he is an ideal man to adj
wise the President upon his return
that party interests, as well as eff
cheney of Government service, de-
mand official decapiation of Mr..
Burleson.

THE OTHER FELLOW.
(Anonymous.)
BY NJ. +. Chumley.


Here is a toast i want to drink to a
fellow I'll never know
TO the fellow who's going to take my
place when it's time for me to go.
I've wondered what kind of chap
he'll be, and I've wished l could
take his hand.
Just to whisper, II wish you well, old
man." in q way that he'd under
stand
I'd like to give him the cheering word
that I've longed at times to hear;
I'd like to give him the warm hand
clasp. when never friend seems
near.
I've learned my knowledge by sheer
hard work, and wish l could
pass it on,
To the fellow who'll come to take M
place, some day when | am gone
viii he see all the sad mistakes I've
made and note all the battles
lost?
Will he ever guess of the tears they
caused or the heartaches which
they cost?
Will he gaze through the failures and
fruitless toll to the underlying
plan,
And catch a glimpse of the real in
tent and the heart of the van
pushed man?
/ dare to hope he will pause some day
as he tolls, as have wrought,
And gain some strength for his weary
task from the battles which
have fought.
But I've only the task itself to leave
with the cares for him TO face,
And never a cheering word may speak
to the fellow who'll take my
place.
Then here's to your health old
chap; / drink as a groom to his
bride;
i leave an unfinished task for you,
but God knows how I've tried.
i've dreamed my dreams as all men
DO. but never one came true,
And my prayer today is that all the
dreams may be realized by you.
And Wen meet some day in the
great unknown-out In the
realms of space;
Ycr u know my clasp as | take your
hand and gaze an your tired face.
Then an your failures viii be success,
in The light Of the new found
dawn
50 I'm drinking your health OLD chap,
who'll take my place when I'm
gone.

KILL THE Ours.

The new dog law is good one.
It's strict enforcement would en-
courage many farmers to keep a few
sheep The Springfield Sun of Apr,
10th, published the following account
of damage by dogs.
"A $500 loss in one night means
nights of unrest but this is the ex-
perience of Mr.. Il. j. Wheatley, who
lives below town on the Bardstown
pike. Last week a number of fox
hounds ran wild on his farm, pass
ing through his sheep pasture where
he had a very fine buch of young
ewes, many with lambe at side,
which were killed outright in the
flight of the mother ewes. Since the
scare a number of ewes have given
birth to lambs, but only one or two
have lived. Aside from the heavy
loss in the death of the lambs, the
frightened ewes will do absolutely no
good during the remainder of the sea-
son. Mr.. Wheatley places his loss at
$500, which is not too high. This
may furnish food for thought to the
sheep raisers throughout the coun-
ty."

Horsehairs Don't Become Snakes.

CUES. Is it true that the hair
from a horses tail will turn into a
snake if kept immersed in water?
Ans. No. 1t is popularity suppos-
ed that so-called horse-hair snakes
are produced in this manner but they
are really hairworms which are par
asitic in the bodies of grasshOppers
and other insects when young but
which inhabit running water in adult
stage. Fact that they resemble horse
hair and are found in water natur-
ally leads to supposition that they
are metamorphosed horse hairs.
