DIDN'T KNOW WAS
 COMING ID WE'D
And Mrs. Johanna Hendwiil Found It Was So Confusing Not to Have Ileen Told, She Admits on
 Learning the Truth.
lBy Interna.lOnal News servIce }


 New York. Aug. 16.--Nobody told Mrs. Johanna Hendwill. a comedy young widow, when she left her home in the tulip fields of Holland that she was coming to America to become the wife of Jacobus Noens, prosperous citizen of Mishawaka. Ind, and that was the beginning of this comedy of errors made tragic by the detention of the widow for fortnight on Ellis Island.
 When the young widow arrived on the steamship Noordam in August, bringing with her little child by her former marriage, she was detained as liable to become a public charge. She gave testimony before board of special inquiry that she had come to America to join her sister, who lives in Mishawaka.
 Do you know a man by the name of Jacobus Noens ?" asked one of the inspectors.
 Yes; he is my sisters husband,v said the widow.
 The inspectors were amazed at this for they had affidavits from Jacobus Noens, forwarded from Mishawaka, that he intended to marry Mrs. Hend- will When this was explained to her, Mrs. Hendwill was more amazed than the immigration inspectors.
 Why, haven't come here to marry anybody" she said, "The only man of the name of Noens l ever knew of is my sisters husband out there in Ina diana. There's some terrible mis- take.v
 But "out there in Indiana" Jacobus Noens wasn't aware of any mistake. and he sent notary public and law yer all the way to New York to get his bride released. Immigration off, ficials don't release brides to vicarial .bridegrooms, and particularly did they balk at the lawyers proposition, for Mrs. Hendwill still said she knew of no bridegroom waiting for her in this "home of the brave" The lawyer was sent back to Indiana with instructions to send the bridegroom in person, or the woman must be deported back to Holland.
 Finally Jacobus Noens arrived at Ellis Island and all was explained.
 'I am the brother of Paul Noens, and Paul is the one who is married to this woman's sister," he said. q have heard my brother and his wife tell for long time of the unhappy life of Mrs. Hendwill in Holland. I conferred with them about bringing Mrs. Hend- will over here. and offered to marry her, because l know her sister we'll and know she is making my broth CTS life happy as his wife. be- sieved Mrs. Hendwill would make me happy, too. am more convinced of it now that l have seen her than I was before"
 "I wonder they didn't tell me this before" said the blushing bride-to-be, apologizing for the trouble she had caused the immigration authorities. 1t was all so confusing, but I won't repine over my detention here now that it is all over with. 1t will be a happy household, brothers and sisters all married up. But, why didn't some- body tell me I was coming over to be married. 2"

D HINTS

Breeders raising pure bred livestock
will do we'll to begin to prepare their
sales stock early, suggests J.. G.
Holmes, livestock specialist in the ex-
tension division at State college. A
smoother cOat Of flesh can be put on
an animal with less feed during q
long term of feeding than with the
same feed during a short feeding
period. Breeders are now and have
been preparing their cattle for the
state sale in January, as they antici
pate a very high class of offerings.
The fall of the year is the best time
to fatten animals, as the feed is more
s%ucculent at that period than it Is
late in the winter. The animal to sell
well should be trained TO stand prop
erly and act well in an auction ring
Many fine animals have been sold be
low value because they did not show
their merit in the auction ring.

AND GARDEN

Prickly ash berries picked when ripe
and placed in clothing boxes give off
a pleasant odor.
Plant hyacinths. daffodils and mar
cissi in the house O for next
springs flowers.
Put carrots, beets and other root
crops in dry sand in a cool cellar if
you would have them keep well into
the winter.
Cattails, rushes, cornfodder, lath or
brush placed on the southwest side of
a tree protect it from sunscald.
Remove all weeds and grass from
about trees now. Mice find a nest in
the material and eat the green bark
of trees and shrubs.
Gladioli. dahlias, cosmos and other
tender bulbs should be lifted before
the ground freezes and stored in the
house basement where they will not
freeze. They should not get too dry
or be kept moist.
