(By pr. Clifford c. Robinsonb CHILDREN'S CONVERSIONS

To the mother who is somewhat weak or nervous from constant family cares and worries, the added burden of q child who is on the verge Of sick ness or sudden convulsions is almost the law straw before her own break down or serious Hines.
 Under certain conditions of home life the matter may not be in contact with the child during the day. or at least a large part or it, She may come home al evening and find the child in the throes of a sudden convulsion, which had she been present might have been averted by close observa- ton. Mothers must learn to keep close watch when any such symptoms begin to appear.
 II often happens that q number of children's diseases are apt to begin with convulsions. You must under stand that the convulsions of the child may be said to take the place of an initial or first chill which occurs in the adult. They really come on quite grad. ually. but on account of lack of ob- seryntion and careful attention, in lthiA tlNldHA'Ht AA'S hPpH"a t' p@ VI rather sudden occurrence,
 Teething under bad bodily eondi- tions is ono cause of conynlsions. Over-excitcment, which seems fro- quently to affect inc brain Of smaller children, is another. Acute cases Of children's indigestion will afford a basis for rather sudden convulsions. The disturbance, 10 a marked degree, of the nerve ccntcrs, by rickcts or pin worms, will often bring on conrulsions. They are not us a rule serious. Do not get excited. but keep your head and work fast.
 As a first treatment, before the ar- rival of the physician, place the pa- tient in a hot bath Temperature Of 100 to 104 degreesD just as soon as possible, with the clothes on--if the attack is severe do not wait 10 undress. Be sure to keep the head raised and 1 apply cold water or an icebag.
 Do not keep the child in the hot | bath for more than five minutes. | When taken from the bath wrap in | @ warm blanket
 An enema should be given at once l 10 obtain bowel movement. This treat i ment should insure fair degree or comfort until inc physician arrives.

Colonel Holes, soldier and adven. turer. returns to England, the land of his birth, when war is declared with Holland. He comes to lodge with Martina Quinn, wealthy hostess of the Paul's Head in Pauls Yard, London.
 It is dangerous for the colonel to secure a commission in the English army because the name of Randall Holes, father of the coonel, is on the warrant for the execution of the late king.
 His Grace of Albemarle. old friend of the colonel, promises to try to se- cure for Holes a commission. Mar tha Quinn fals victim to the charms of the colonel and proposes marriage to him. Holes refuses her offer. The dreaded plague is spreading rapidly in London and on the streets the colonel sees victim. .

 He was instantly releived. Dan vers?" he echoed. My friend Dan- vers? Why, I have no such friend I never even heard his name before.'
 "Indeed." She was terribly derisive new. And maybe you've never heard the names of his lieutenants neither-of Tucker and of Rathbone, that was in here with you no later than yesterday as I can swear. Two traitors that was arrested this morn ing, along of dozen others, for con- spring to bring back the Common wealth. Oh. a scoundrelly plot-to murder the King, seize the Tower, and burn the City, no less"
 It was like blow between the eyes. 'Arrested" he gasped. his jaw fallen, his eyes startled. Tucker and Rathbone arrested, do you say? Woman, you rave,"
 Do F" She laughed again, evilly mocking. Step out into Paul's Yard and ask the first man you meet of the arrest made in Cheapside just afore noon, and of the hunt that is going on this minute for Danvers, their leader, and for others who was mixed up in this wicked nlot. And I don't want them to come ea-hunting here. I don't want my house named for a meeting-place of traitors, as you've made it, taking advantage of

 She picked mp the empty tankard and reached the door before he could find words in his numbed brain tt answer her. On the threshold sht paused.
 "I'll bring you your score present. ly," she said. When you've set. tied that, you may pack and quit She went out, slamming the door.
 The score! It was small thing compared with that terrible menace of gaol and gallows. Let him be de. nounced for association with Tucker and Rathbone, and there would be nc mercy for the son of Handal Holles the Regicide. His parentage and an- tecedents would supply the crownine evidence againts him. And yet the score, whilst a comparatively neg ligible evil, was the more immediate and therefore gave him at the mo- ment the greater preoccupation.
 He knew that it would be heavy. and he knew that the balance of his resources was utterly inadequate to meet it. Yet unless it were met he could be assured that Mrs. Quinn would show him no mercy; and this fresh trick of Fate's, in bringing him into association with Tucker on the very eve of that conspirstor's arrest. placed him in the power Of Mrs. Quinn to an extent that did not bear considering.
 And SC you behold him presently, arrayed once more in the shabby gar ments that he had thought to have discarded forever, emerging from the Paul's Head carrying q bundle that contained his finery, and making his way back to those shops in Pater- noster Row where it had been so lately and so jubilantly acquired.
 Here he discovered that there is world Of difference between the treat ment offered to seller and to a buyer.
 Ten pounds was all that be could raise on gear for which a few hours ago he had paid close upon thirty.

Study Record Book Data
to Keep Track of Sires

one way TO stimulate interest Of
the dairyman in the value Of better
sires can be accomplished by mai ing
proper use of the data which is found
in the herd record book headings. pro.
yided that they have been filed in
completely and properly. Get the
name and number of each cows sire.
and the dams name If possible. In
many instances the sire my be gone
and forgotten" but one can usually
find out which cows are sired by a
certain bull. and In that way determine
the value of the sires formerly heading
the herd.
The ideal data on slres is arrived nt
by comparing his daughters with their
dams. Know your bull through his
daughters. The daughters should
show decided Improvement over
their dams in respect to their produc-
tion and conformation If selected for
the future herd When you have found
the rating of sire and he has proved
10 he exceptionally good, and is still
living. continue using him in the herd.
Too often a good sire goes to the
block before his value Is known,
breeders should exchange sires or
loan them to someone until their
daughters can be tested. There Is no
better way to make COW testing WORK
more effective than to promote the
use Of better sires.

More Careful Study of
Feeding Problem Needed

litter of twelve pigs, six and six,
on one SOW Is a he;ivy drain. so p. w.
Fairbanks live stock extension spe-
cialist. told western slope farmer
who showed him the pigs. which had
been sired by n pure bred Duroc of
excellent breeding. They should have
been weaned late In June, but were
still on the SOW July 10. Starting them
on grain before weaving was advised; !;
little corn, some shorts and plenty
Of buttermilk and pasture for exercise
Then after weaning feed a mixture Of
corn, 40 pounds. oats 30 pounds and
middIlngs 30 pounds. This should be
handled until the pigs get up to $50
pounds. After that a self-feeder may
he used.
Another litter Of eight, from pure
bred sire, was looked over. Here the
problem was of another sort. These
pigs had evidently been 'weaned too
early, at seven weeks. They should
have been left with the sow at least
another week. They were being fed
middlings and skim milk and they
weighed only half ton. when they
should have been well beyond that
point in order to stand any show for
ton-litter contest prize. Here the
trouble was underfeeding.
1.-The ton-litter contest emphasizes
the need for more careful study of the
feeding problem" says Mr.. Fairbanks.
