6NINCE the accident which
- robbed him OF his arm, Har-
yey Barnes had become ex-
trerneiy sensitive and shy. His
pitiful empty sleeve had for two
years been a source of keen
humiliation.
Then his parents realized that
the loss Of his good right arm
was doing more than disfiguring
their sons body. 1t was crippling
his spirit and eating away his
self-esteem. To be regarded as q
helpless one, who could not en-
gage in the activities Of other
boys, hurt Harvey's pride too
much.
So one day Mr.. Barnes came
home with two tennis racquets
and some tennis balls. Harvey's
face lighted up and he gave
ioyous yell when he saw them.
''Son. let's make tennis cham
uion of YOU" said the father with
enthusiasm.
''Do YOU think that could be
done?' cried the boy with shin
"Surest thing you know" an
swered the father.
Then for months Harvey and
his father went about the city
from one tennis court to another,
playing in all the public places
available. Before long other boys
learned that Harvey had two
racuuets, and was rather gener-
Gus about lending one.
Gradually Harvey was drawn
into tennis matches, and because
he played with all his might and
brain he very often won.

GRADED HUES
IN HANDBAGS

GRADED handbags are the lat
" est novelty in the leather
shops. They couldn't resist the
vogue for graded hues, and like
frocks, hats and shoes, have sub
mitted to it as well.
Bags intended for shopping are
carried out in superposed bands
of leather, usually running all
the gamut of browns and tans.
The darkest tone is used for the
bottom. Some interesting ones
also come in shades of greens
and reds. The more delicate
afternoon bags come in graded
silk or MORE.
A note of special smartness is
the jeweled knob as large as any
body's door-handle and very or
nate in design. Some of these
are studded solidly with diamonds
or brilliants and contain a large
single stone like a topaz or anne.
thyst. Others have the lower half
made of enamel in a delicate
shade and the upper half bril-
liantly jeweled. An amusing new
form of the smaller purse is
completely round, the bottom
made of black crushed leather
and the upper side of plaque OF
lavender enamel with a black
leather strap.
Another new bag model is in
the form of a box. Generally de
veloped in box-calk it is quite
roomy and very smart. A large
initial either in gold or in enamel
is placed on the lid. 1t is held
by a strap at the upper side. But
many bags are the kind that
stand alone and have no straps
at all.
Purses for evening wear have
long been made of brocade, beads
or lame and are still being car
ried. New ones are made in d
fine neutral fabric, entirely be-
decked with glittering strass, in.
terrupted here and there by a pat
tern of imitation rubies or sap.
phires. A new type of bag for
formal occasions Is a loose net
work of thin gold chains, the
openings at least an inch square,
with a lining of rose-colored sat
tin forming the body Of the bag.

Old MonarchicaI Idea

The name Divine Right of Kings"
is given to a doctrine that was pro-
mulgated in England in the Seven
teenth century. 1t asserted that
kings held their authority by divine
appointment and were earthly repre-
sentatives of the Deity. This princi-
pie relieved the sovereign of all re-
sponsibility toward his subjects, and
gave him absolute claim to their ODE
dience. The chief defenders of this
dogma were Salmasius, Hobbies and
Sir Robert Filmer; while Milton, Al
gernon Sydney and Harrington were
it's uncompromising opponents. The
controversy died a natural death on
the accession of the House of Han
over. In the Bill of Rights (16S9) the
right of the people to depose the SOW
ereign, to alter the order of success
sion, and to confer the sovereignty
on whomsoever they may think prop
er is distinctly set forth.-Kansas

feeds, such as legume hay, linseed oil
meal and wheat bran.
J Two good daily rations for idle
horses, per 1000 pounds of live weight,
would be: Corn slower 9 pounds, and
clover or alfalfa hay 8 pounds; or else
oat straw pounds, clover or alfalfa
hay 10 pounds, and corn 1 pound. By
feeding these cheap roughages with a
small amount of protein feeds the
horses can be easily maintained at a
minimum expense.
When the horses go into the hard
work Of the spring they will not be
able to use as much roughage as when
they are idle because they have not
the time needed to thoroughly chew
and digest it. For this reason the
roughage should be reduced and the
grain concentrates increased as soon
as they begin to work. This should be
done gradually so as not to cause
collie or other digestive troubles.

Initiative Wins

When initiative is absent, we be-
come mechanical beings with no keen
ness for advancement and if all were
afflicted that way the world would
cease to progress; for we are here
today just because men of initiative
have acted in the past. So it is well
to be buoyant and brisk to take an
other step which will bring benefit
both to ourselves and others.
There are thousands of things in
life that are ours if we will but claim
them; but we have failed because
we have never heard their call, or
thought the call was to someone else
and not to us. We need to arouse
ourselves and go in and possess, 9TH
erwise we shall be left behind.-EX-

Spring Flowing Is
j Need of Emergency
Soil Should Be Fairly Firm
for Best Results.

Fall blowing is best for the crop,
put emergency crops often call for
spring blowing. The soil should >be
fairly firm for best results. 1t is i'm
iportant that the seed be put in as
learly in the spring as it is possible to
work the land. The peas especially
lido best in cold weather and will make
1.-THE best growth and the best quality
fof hay when early sown.
In these days Of the disk and shoe
drill the seed should be sown two to
three inches deep after the soil has
been mellowed by thorough disking.
The peas could well go deeper but the
oats do best when sown not more than
ian inch and half to two inches in
depth. And since both are usually
seeded with the same implement, peas
ican go at the shallower depth. One
Ito one and One-half bushels of peas
Ishould be sown with bushel and a
half of oats per acre.
After sowing the oats and peas no
tattention need be given the crop until
ready to cut for hay. This will be in
ten or twelve weeks after sowing. The
icrop should be cut when the oats are
in the milk and the peas just begin
ming to form in the pods. Owing to
the green, Succulent nature OF the
crops, difficulty is sometimes expert
fenced in curing the crop on low, heavy
land when large growth has been
made. In bright sunny weather the
difficulty is less than when rains are
frequent. The hay is coarse and
fluffy and does not shed rain well.

Sudan Grass Is Useful
as Good Emergency Crop

Since sudan grass is not sown I'M
til after complaining time, it will
not take the same place in any graz
ing system as rye pasture, which
furnishes good pasture in the early
spring. Sudan grass is good pasture
grass, and it is used principally as an
emergency crop, much as is millet In
the corn belt. Care must be used in
pasturing the crop after frOsts in the
fall. After the frosts, prussic acid
develops in the plant, which may
prove poisonous to stock. 1t is also
reported that in very dry seasons the
acid develops in the plant, but the
danger from this source is remote
in the corn belt. 1t should be seeded
at the rate of about 20 pounds to the
acre. 1t may be either broadcast or
drilled.

bV Liberal Use of Oil

Occasionally a busch of unthrifty,
scrubby-looking pigs are seen. Usu-
ally the pigs are margy, due to small
insects which burrow into the skin
along the hair. An irritation arises
which causes the pig to rub a great
deal.
Liberal use of crude oil or crank

this pest and also lice. In bad cases

that any mango mites in the dirt may
