a huddled figure they had drawn from
the crumpled wagon.
The next events took place rapidly.
In the last one, the gray-headed coun-
try doctor looked down at the pale,
suffering man in the old-fashioned bed.
John, o are due to stay here a
month. Get up before that and your
walking days are overl"
The sick man TOOL the bad news with
anger, but he knew the old doctor was
to be trusted. He fretted about his
work, but Elton promised to stay and
do the work until help could be Sc
cured. Graves looked his gratitude.
Through the days of fever and de-
lirium that followed Mother Graves
was patient and serene as ever, but
Elton could see that she was gently,
but surely. failing under the shock.
Then came the evening when the
tide turned along the shore of their
lives. Elton and Mother Graves were
at supper when a carriage drove into
the yard. They thought 1t was the
Doctors, so did not go out. When the
door opened, a slim girl stood before
them; her bright hair waving away
from under a small dark hat. She
was smiling.
Hello, mother DEAR" she said gent
ly.
Mother Graves rose, her face
touched by the light that must be
some suggestion Of the light on the
faces of those who meet beyond the
doors of death then she quietly flint
ed in the strong girlish arms that were
opened to her. The silent room would
be silent no more, the little slippers
so patiently waiting would be used.
When Mr.. Graves lifted his weary
eyes to the face of the girl whose cool
hands had left soothing memories dur
ing the hazy hours of his suffering,
and he saw her for the first time with
understanding, he shrank back. FL
ton, looking on, was fearful, but the
old man was conquered at last. He
drew her hand to his cheek.
A little later he looked up with a
faint smile. Mercy, / don't care who
you marry or have married, but l
wish he was as good a chap as FL
ton"
She laughed. DADDY, you're the
victim of a plot. Ronald Is the one. l
wouldn't marry him unless you and
mother were glad; 81 he planned to
come over here and win you over, but

SELF-FEEDERS ARE POPULAR
Devices Eliminate Great Portion Of
Labor Involved and Insure
Uniform Results.

S~elf-feeders for hogs have come into
great popularity among farmers and
feeders largely because they eliminate
a great portion OF the labor involved
In feeding and insure more uniform
results and gains from the hogs.
Hogs In the wild state were settled
animals, living upon such feeds as
would satisfy their appetites, and I'M
der domestication they seem to thrive
best when fed by the same principle.
The marked success Of the self-feedlng
principle of hog raising is largely due
TO the fact that they may eat an
abundance of those feeds which will
nourish them to the best advantage.
The self-feeder should be designed
primarily TO keep ar available supply
OF grain constantly before the hogs.
and Mt the same time protect the con-
tents against waste due to wind and
rain. A self-feeder consists of a hop
per TO hold the feed and a trough be-
low II into which the grain flows as
the hogs eat II. Complete plans for
the Iowa self-feeder can be obtained
from the extension department, Iowa
State college, Ames. Iowa.

Clocks Bun Faster at Night.

Berkeley, Calif.-Here's the scien-
tific explanation of why the alarm
clock goes off so early in the morn
ing. Clocks run faster at night than
in daytime. w. W. Campbell, director
of Lick observatory of the University
of California, In his annua report to
the president of the university, an
nounced that X. II. Tucker, an obser-
vatory astronomer, has made this
startling discovery regarding time
pieces. 'The ultimate cause OF the
phenomenon is obscure" the report
states, but an exhaustive program of
observation 10 far has borne out the
hypothetical conclusion that clocks
run faster at night thai in daytime"
The discovery is of vast Importance
to astronomers who depend upon clock
corrections.

FRUIT OF AMERICAN ORIGIN
Gourd Known as h "Pantama" In
the Canary Stands Long Known
to Mexican People.

In Spain and the Canary Islands has
long been grown a kind of gourd, the
size of a small watermelon, green
blotched with white, which is very
good to eat. 1t Is called "pantama,"
and until recently botanists have sup
posed that 1t came from the Far East.
1t turns out, however. that this
gourd is Of American origin, and was
eaten by the people of Mexico long be-
fore the days of Cortez and Monte
yuma. being known to them as "chila-
cayote." the Detroit News states.
A curious thing about 1t is that its
white flesh, when the gourd is cooked,
resolves Itself into long flaments re-
sembling vermlcelli. Cut In quarters
and boiled, the vegetable is then trans
ferred to cold water, w~hereupon with
a little stirring. the pulp detaches It.
self from the rind and takes the form
Of slender threads, which may be
served with soup, with milk, Eau
gratln' with cheese, or In various 9TH
er ways.
In the Canary islands the vermicelli-
like flaments are converted into a de-
liclous candy by putting them into boil
ing strip and cooking until the strip
cracks in cold water. The candy thus
made is pretty. transparent, light yell
low In color. and is called angels

Have No Sixth Sense.

It is well known that any OF our
domestic animals can find their way
home from a distance OF many miles,
ven after the lapse OF some time.
This faculty is perhaps oftenest seen
In the dog. the horse and the cat, but
is known to be almost or quite as
fully developed in the OK. The faculty
has been supposed by some naturalists
to depend upon a sixth sense. indie
pendent of sight or smell. Such a
theory Involves IN organ OF sense by
which the needed observations may be
carried to the brain; an organ which
must be distinct from the eye, ear
and nostrils. Psychologists have not,
as yet, found any such organ In the
constitution OF any animal nor have
they found any nerves different from
those which belong to our own nervous
system. This Is almost conclusive evil
dence that animals possess no sense
different from ours. New York

The Room of
Silence
By A. w. PEACH

" Se - HNNSAeAt
Ronald Elton had not been at the
quaint and comfortable Graves farm
house a day before he stumbled on
the mystery. He had noticed that
there vas one pleasant room facing
the broad meadows that was closed
and never opened, so far as he knew,
during the daylight hours.
He hau peeked into the room once
when going around the house. 1t was
a bedroom, spick and span, with one
appealing object in tia small pair
of slippers near the foot of the bed.
laid in neat order, waiting for some
one whom he did not see.
Little Mrs. Graves, white-headed, Sc
rene of face, said nothing about it, nor
did Mr.. Graves; but Elton knew that
the room held a secret. So, n after
noon he mentioned the room in a cas-
ual way, remarking upon it's pleasant
view. He saw Mrs. Graves face
change; a look of sadness overspread
it, a sadness so u~nspeakably deep
that he quickly caught the old farm
er's sharp signal across the table,
warning him not to bring the subject
up I'm Mrs. Graves presence.
In the evening, in the barn, Mr..
Graves turned to him, and Ronald
was startled at the savage expression
Oh the farmers face as he said frank
ly: "Never mention hat room, Mr..
Elton. Mother Graves is foolish about
it." He thought a moment. 81 might
as well tell We. That was my girl,
Mercy's, room. She was allus kinda
headstrong an high-tempered; an
three years ago she was bound to go
visitin' to a summer resort. She met
a city Teller there, and fell in love
with him. / didn't want her to go to
that place, an when her aunt, who
went with her, wrote us about the
kind of chap he was. l swore she
wouldn't marry him an 1 told her to
give him up an come straight home.
She wrote she wouldn't do either. An
she hain't, an never will IL 1 have my
say"
The tanned face was harsh and cold
as he went on: "She writes now and
then, but 1 never open the letters. !

Pasture Is Essential to the Profitable
Production of Beef.

1910 pounds, the gain amounting to
2S4 pounds in a period of TIA days.
The average quantity of feed consumed
for 100 pounds of gain was $50 pounds
of grain. 81 pounds of commercial con-
centrates, 391 pounds of dry ~roughage
such as hay and corn fodder. s63
pounds of silage, and the equivalent of
20 days of %pasturage.
In addition to these cooperative
feeding trials with cattlemen in Indi-
ana, Illinois. Iowa, Nebraska. and Mis-
souri,. the United States Department
of Agriculture is conducting investiga-
tons In southwestern Wisconsin to de-
termine the costs and amount of feed
required TO fatten cattle on grass, with
and without a supplement. and of the
feed required to maintain a breeding
herd of beef cattle for one year, and
to raise calves from weaving time to

adapted for use In making beef. Feed
Ing mixtures OF silage. dry velvet
beans and cotton seed were compared
with combinations OF silage and dry

and soaked velvet beans resulted In
the most economical and profitable
