MISSED HIS GUEST

Some years ago an attorney was
called in bya large company and
handed lease.
Give us your opinion" said the
president. I'VE have a great deal of
this sort of legal business and it is
only fair to say that your opinion
may mean much to us and to your
self"
The lawyer went through the docu~
ment with some care, but quickly,
and on the spot.
"Um-will you tell me what firm
drew up this instrument he ask
ed, at length.
"No firm at ALL" was the reply.
For five years we have drawn ev-
cry lease made by our company
right in this office. My subordinate
here, Mr.. Johns, is the only man we
nave ever found who thoroughly un-
derStand the complications and con
ditions of such transactions as we en-
ter into"
The attorneys face frightened.
This is one of the best drawn
leases have ever examined" he
said heartily. You are wise to han
die such matters inside your own or
ganzation. | commend your business
judgment"
Can you suggest any improve
ments?"
None whatever" declared the
lawyer.
Can you discern any faws?"
'No-emphaticaily! Mr.. Johns"
continued the attorney, turning to
the presidents assistant, 81 want to
congratulate you, as a lawyer, upon
your thorough grasp of this most
difficult branch. In my opinion this
instrument is unassailable. 1t will
hold in the highest court of the
State"
THAT is what we want-your hon
est opinion" said the president. 1--WE
are much obliged to you, and shall
be pleased to have bill for your ser
vice. My dear sir,-the highest court
in the State declared his lease null
and void last week, and we have lost
a dollar suit upon !" 4"

A JOB FOR HARDING

dent Harding was newspaper man
before he became our President, but
it is not SO generally known that he
was a painter before he was news
paper publisher and editor He pain
ted Baptist Church in his town of
Marion, Ohio, and it is said that
once in Washington he saw man
painting on the White House, where
he went to him and said: "Here, you
don't know how to paint" and took
the brush away from the man and
showed him how he thought paint
should be applied.

"VAMPS" WHO
MADE HISTORY
THE VAMPIRE WHO TRAINED A
TYRANT.
BY JAMES C. YOUNG.

~ NE Of the most dangerous women
" I'm the ancient world was Pop
paea Sablna, wife Of Nero. Under her
tutelage he emerged from youth as a
profligate and tyrant. History shows
that before their meeting no other
Roman emperor ever had better
chance Of making good on his imperial
Job, and none ever failed so miserably.
When Nero came into power at the
age of seventeen Rome was just be-
coming acquainted with the luxury of
Greece and the Orient. But he had
been raised like Spartan by his
mother Agrlppina, who made him en-
peror almost single handed. The rig
orous discipline of his mother pre-
sumably should have made Nero
brave simple-living man. like the Ro-
mans Of old. Instead, he quickly
turned to luxurious ways Of life. Then
he met and loved Acte, an Asiatic
woman. Agrippina forbade him to
carry on the affair. Nero baked He
was emperor and not q mere boy any
more.
The love affair with Acte estranged
Nero and his wife, Octavia. whom he
had married as a matter Of statecraft.
Then he fell under the sway Of Pop
paea Sabina and quickly abandoned
Acte. Poppaea also was married. but
as mistress to Nero she chided him
for subjection to his mother. Nero
lost his head and set about doing
whatever Poppaea bid. She was older
than he, but beautiful and seductive
vampire in very truth. And she meant
to make herself empress. Agrippina
stood In the way, and POppaea lost no
chance to rub salt upon the wounds
In Nero's pride. Her promptings led
him to his first and perhaps his great
est crime, the murder of his own moth
er. When this deed had been done,
Octavia still remained. But not for
long. She was banished, then mur-
dered. Poppaea became empress.
Nero, prey to eXcesses of every
Kind, began to verge upon madness.

men executed, including even Seneca,
the philosopher and tutor of his child
hood. Then Rome was burned and
the whole of the ancient world whis.
pered that Nero had fired It, The en-
peror began reconstruction on q grand
scale and actually accomplished much
In that way. But his race was run.
His last supporters fell away. and
one night the praetorian guard de-
serted It's post, leaving the palace un-
guarded. Nero crept away in the
darkness. alone. The senate met and
forfeited his life, when he committed
suicide, at the age Of thirty-one.
1t was not Poppaea who laid him
at rest, but the gentle Acte, who alone
claimed his body.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN NOTES

Fall planting of fruit trees is
strongly recommended in the South
Order trees early so as 20 lave them
on hand in ample time for planting
before the middle Of December.
The grape is one of our most reli-
able fruits, it is not fully appreciated
in the South. Such varieties as Con
cord, Niagara and Delaware can be
grown to perfection in this state.
Plant some for home use and for
local market. Ask your county agent
for advice in regard to planting,
etc.
Plant one or two of the muscadinc
type of grape. The Scuppernong,
James Eden and Thomas are excel
lent varieties.
Sow lettuce seed in frames about
October l for home use. Transplant
as soon as the plant has formed the
fourth or fifth leaf; place in frames,
IL inches apart each way, and protect
the plants with light weight canvas in
freezing weather. The Big Boston is
one of the best varieties. When pro-
tected in frames the lettuce should
be ready for use throughout Decem-
ber, January and February.
Sow onion seed in a well prepared
bed in rows IL inches apart and
thickly in the row. Transplant the
seedlings in Mrach as you would
onion sets. White Pearl, Prizetaker,
and Southport Globe are good varie-
ties for home use and local market
Onions require very fertile land and
liberal applications of fertilizer.
Sow crimson clover in your orchard
as cover crop about October /. On
very poor land, use hairy vetch and
rye instead of clover. Turn the
cover crop under in April and sow the
land to peas in late May or June.
Set strawberry plants in early Oc-
tober 18 inches apart on rows 3 feet
wide. Lady Thompson and Klondyke
are excellent varieties. Plow, ferti-
lize, and mulch your old strawberry
bed in early October.
Consult your county agent in re-
gard to buying fruit trees. Do not
be misled by travelling tree agents.
The county agent can save you money
on the first cost of your trees and
very much more by aiding you in
the selection Of varieties suited to
your locality.

HOW CODY GOT NICKNAME OF
BUFFALO BILL"

When the Kansas Pacific railroad
was being built through Kansas In
lS67-6S II was necessary to provide
food for an army of more than 1000
track-layers. A source of supply was
near at hand-vast herds of buffalo
and men were hired to do nothing else
but XIII these animals for food. One
OF the best-known of the hunters was
William Frederick Cody, young from
tierSman who mad been pony express
rider and guide for General Custer.
The work was dangerous, for the In
dians did all they could to stop prog
ress on the railroad. They especially
hated these hunters who killed more
buffalo In one day than they destroyed
I'm week, and Cody took his life in
his hands every time he went out. He
soon became such an expert hunter
that the railroad men gave him the
nickname of Buffalo Bill"
During Cody's career as buffalo
hunter. a period of 18 months, he
killed total of 4,2S0 bison. His
greatest exploit was his victory over
Billy ComstOck, a scout and rival
hunter The match was arranged by
officers of Fort Wallace to decide
which OF the two men was the great
est slayer Of bison. They were to
hunt one day of eight hours, and the
man who killed the greatest number
of the animals was to be declared the
champion buffalo hunter.
herd was found and separated
into two punches. Cody Immediately
began riding at the head of his bunch
shooting the leaders and crowdinR the
followers in toward the center of an
ever-narrowing circle. In a short time
he had killed 3S, all OF whom lay dead
over small area. Comstock had be-
gun shooting at the rear of his herd
and, although he killed %, they were
scattered over a distance of three
miles. Two more herds were found.
ana when the final count was made.
Cody had GO and Comstock 46.
Later Cody became famous scout
and guide. lie served with General
Custer In Kansas and General Carr i'm
Colorado Cody was known as "Pa.
haska-Long Hair" by the Sioux, who
had great respect for his prowess.
After the Indian wars ended Buffalo
Bill organized his Wild West show
which added to his fame not only I'm
America, but in Europe as well. After
seventy-two years OF life crowded with
adventure, he died January 10, 1917.

HERE is A NEW DISCOVERY

Did YOU Know that the much abus-
ed Depaltr,elt oe Agriculture mas
found that there are wonderful pos
sibilities in ihe humble and lowly
corn cob? The chemists of the de-
parrment have discove,e that ti.erc
is high grade of furfural in the corn
cob. Perhaps you don'r know, as we
didn't know, until very lately that
furfural is an oily liquid of a pleas
ant odor and can be used in the
manufacture of coal tar products, for
making dye stutfs and Photographic
material.
Flrfural made from other sources
was before the war controlled by Ger
many and was sold at $4,000 per
pound.
The chemists of the Department
of Agriculture that through the corn
cob as source, the American chem
ical industry will be able to manufac-
ture it at price that will make it
readily available to the dye trade and
other users.
Our farmer friends will find a sale
for their corn cobs in the not distant
future perhaps. They can learn a
lesson in economy from the Chicago
pork packers, who it is said have been
utilizing every portion of the slaugh-
tered hog, the offal as fertilizer, the
hair for bristles and the squeal they
run into the phoncgraph.
