! I'VE STOCK ST
CARELESS POISONING COSTLY
Gaining Access to Paint Boxes and Other Containers.

The danger of animals becoming poisoned through the careless use of poison material when spraying or bait Ing for Insects. Is pointed out by ofti- cials at the Ohio Experimental sta ton. Wooster.
 Every year reports are sent in of animals suddenly dying from securing access to paint boxes and poison con- tainers.
 Sometimes paris green boxes, white lead or arsenate of lead containers are thrown into the trash pile or dump and animals get the poison from these.
 Paint boxes. even though thinly coated, are licked by cattle because of the swedish taste of the lead com pounds.
 Such boxes should be thoroughly cleaned with gasoline before using for farm pails, 1t is stated.
 Materials most dangerous to live stock are paris green, london purple. arsenate of lead, calcium arsenate. and any compounds of arsenic or zinc.

For the moment forgetful of herself. the girl glanced about and up at his erect figure. "Oh. but I never could do that" she exclaimed
 The words were ambiguous, but not the tone in which they were uttered. He sprang nearer to her. Instantly all her shame and confusion swept back in full flood. The scarlet famed to the tip of her pretty ears as she hid her averted face in her hands. He bent forward, with arms outstretched to clasp her; but checked himself, and in place of the ardent declaration that trembed on his lips he substituted an appeal to her sympathy:
 Il am all alone in the world, Amy utterly alone. Until I came to Denver l did not fully comprehend what that means. Women entered little into my life l was absorbed in my work-my career. I have my old home in Cali fornia, but 1t is empty. l was going back 10 it for visit. thinking that the empty shell would mean to me what a home should mean. Now I know better. A home without the soul of home is a dead home."
 Soul of home?" wonderingly whis- pered the girl.
 Who makes the home?" he asked. Who is its soul? Need l tell you that? Amy will you be the soul of my home? Will you be my wife dear"
 "O-o-o!" she tremulously sighed.
 "Amy-Sweetheart." he appealed: you cannot be my little sister any longer. Must then go away alone to that empty place I thought was my home? Alone, dear. without even little sister to tease and love me! You will go with me. won't you. dearest little wife-to-be? There's no need for you to say word nor even to whisper. only-you know l cannot do anything until you Dear, deat Miss LOwrie. =, you not realize that you can hide your little nose just as well under my lapel?'
 "Will you-will you promise not to iook?" asked tiny voice.

 He obeyed so promptly that he caught glimpse of the loveliest, roslest face and the tenderest, softest brown eyes in all the world before they were eclipsed by his lapel.
 Contemplating certain thick crown of glossy hair, he inquired: Then am I to understand, Miss Lowrie, that you positively refuse to remain sis ter to me?"
 The answer was indirect. It came in scarcely audible whisper: Don't you remember that evening? I said that if you insisted upon going to California. would-would go, too, "
