Derwent Lord Derwent is the
head Of a younger branch Of the
ancient and historic house OF John
stone of westerhall. The chief Of
the Johnstone clan was in Edtn-
burEh some six centuries aEo when
he heard Of the plotting by King
Edward Of England and Baliol to
capture Robert Bruce. Johnstone
could only send TO the Scotch patriot
an emblematical warning, namely,
a spur with a feather attached 10
it. The quick-witted Bruce read
the message Alright, and at once
sought safety in a mountain last
ness. When he asceEded the throne
as King Robert, he granted TO John 70
stone a winged spur as crest IN
memory Of the timely hint to which
he owed his life. The winged spur
remains to this day the crest OF

Why Cattle Are Mavericks"

Sam Maverick migrated from Mas
sachusetts to Texas in the early days
Of the great West and entered upon
the business Of raising cattle. He pur-
chased several herds and put them
out to roam the range. Whether from
ignorance or from implicit faith I'm the
honesty OF the neighbors. It never &C.
CURED to Mr.. Maverick that it might
be wise to put his brand upon his
stock.
At roundup time, whenever a cow
boy found an unbranded animal, he
would cry: There's a Maverick"
And, generally being Of the unre-
generate type, he would use his own
brand on his find. The name Maver-
ick soon began to be generally applied
and to acquire a distinct metaphOrical
meaning; and when men had opinions
which were vague and undecided, they
were declared by Westerners Of the
old days to hold Maverick views"

Rene Navarro French actor and

of beautiful French women and girls,

says che only thing to do is to start

CHEERFULNESS AS AN ASSET
Why Mirth Has Been Called "Godss
Medicine" by Those Capable of
Approaching II.

Mirth has been called Gods medi-
cine. There are few persons who can
not testify to the saving value Of a
smile. There is story told Of a man
who received a wire while on a bust
ness trip that his business had been
wiped out by fire. The depression
which followed this news threatened
for time his mental balance, and he
even gave serious thought to taking
his own life.
While In this dangerous mood he
received letter from his daughter, a
girl Of nine, which read: "Dear Dad
dy-I went down to see your store that
was burned and 1t looked awfully
pretty all covered with Ice. Love and
kisses from Helen"
The man laughed and the day was
saved. That CLINT of humor was like
n ray Of sunshine In dark cell. The
spirit of the man was released from
the prison Of his gloom.
Lincoln on the day that he read to
his cabinet the emancipation proclama-
ton opened that important meeting
by reading from Artemus Ward. When
rebuked by one of his serious minded
cabinet officers for having called them
into an important session to hear such
nonsense, Lincoln replied: "Why don't

ment of Agriculture.)
Harvest season for berries, as with
any other market crop, Is a critical
period, because upon proper methods
depends the entire success Of the
years work. No matter II the vines
or bushes have been carefully chosen,
properly set, thoroughly cultivated,
and scientifically pruned or trained,
the grower will not be able to get the
full extent of financial returns unless
the berries are carefully picked and
carefully handled.
Berry harvest once meant taking
tin pail into the woods or fields, filling
It from the wild bushes and carrying
the Ferries to the house, where they
were prepared for the table or canned
Ii they were green or overripe, or II
there were sticks, leaves or hulls In
the pals, 1t meant no more than lit
tie sorting. In commercial culture ber-
ries must be picked so they will stand
shipping, possibly hundreds Of miles,
and appear on the market with the
boxes reasonably filed and the berries
In an attractive and edible condition
If they are ,overripe when picked they
are likely to break down and spoil
before getting to market, and If they
are picked green they are likely to
be worthless. Bruising makes them
settle down In the basket and also
lays them open to mold and heating.
II the field is small the members Of
the family may be able to handle the
crop, but If II Is large 1t involves en-

number Of pickers to harvest the ber-
ries as fast as they ripen. II sorted
out, the overripe berries are usually

Local men, women and children are
preferable to transient labor. Usually
