What She Preferred.
Apropos of Senator Depew’s declara-
tion that in his young days in Peeks-
kill marriages were very happy and
comfortable on $1,000 or so a year,
Millicent M. Atwood in an anti-suf-
frage address in Baltimore said:
“The cost of living is higher now
than in Mr. Depew’s young days, and
it is impossible for a Bryn Mawr or
Vassar girl to live a happy married
life on $1.000 a year.
“A Vassar girl once refused a six-
teen dollar a week bank clerk. He
groaned and said: :
“ ‘You wring my heart!
“‘I’d rather wring your heart than
wring your clothes,’ the Vassar girl
calmly answered.””—New York Tribune.
Overpowered Them.
The late General E. Burd Grubb,
when minister to Spain by favor of
Secretary Blaine, created a sensation
by his court dress. When he came to
be presented at court there were mur-
murs at his plain civilian dress. Gen-
eral Grubb turned back. donned the
ornate uniform of a captain of the
Philadelphia City Troop—red jacket
with riding trousers. metal helmet with
sweeping black plume—and returned
to the palace. He then wore flowing
side whiskers, and the American min-
ister’s presence was so commanding
that he attracted more attention than
did their majesties.—Springfield Repub-
lican.
Not the Custom.
“No es costumbre” (which, being
translated, means “It is not the cus-
tom”) has been described as the na-
tional motto of Mexico. All Mexicans
are slaves of habit, and if a thing is
“not the custom’ then to them it seems
unworthy of consideration. If you ask
the cook to sweep a floor, says W. E.
Carson in his *“‘Mexico.” she politely
replies, “No es costumbre,” or if you
complain when the soup and chop or- :
dered in a restaurant arrive at inter-
vals of half an hour between and the
chop preceding the soup the waiter
will merely remark. “No es costum-
bre.” If you ask for hurry and find
dawdling you must be cheerful, for
that is ‘“‘costumbre.”—London Mail.
The Contemplative Worm.
From a series of experiments con-
ducted by Professor Yerkes of Har-
vard college the professor has become
convinced that an angleworm can
think. Knowing that an anglewcrm
will always crawl out of a lighted
place into a dark ome, the professor
put the worm which he was experi-
menting on into a glass dish in which
were two dark holes. The right hand
hole was merely a regular earth cavi-
ty. The left hand one, however, con-
tained a mildly charged electric bat-
tery, the object of which is tc give the
worm a shock in case it should enter.
The worm soon learned its lesson and
always went to the right when it was
put into the glass dish.
A Crushing Come Back.
“I started to tell my wife about a

“Well?”

« Soon Gets Over It.
“What is the honeymoon, pa?”
“Well, the honeymoon is the only
period in a man's life during which he
considers it funny to come home and
find that his dear little wife hasn't

A Human Bungalow.

Success of Operation Depends on
Proper Wrapping.

Special Care Should Be Exercised in
Wrapping to See That the Bud Is
Pressed Firmly Against Wood
of the Stock.
(By E. J. KRAUS.)
Two excellent methods for budding
walnut trees are given below: 1
The Hinge Bud—About one inch
above the surface of the soil make:
a transverse incision about half an.
inch long and a similar one about
three-fourths of an inch above this.
Connect the two with a longitudinal
incision. This forms the completed,
“I” cut on the stock. It is very de-
sirable to use extra care in making
these cuts. The ideal condition is to
merely penetrate the bark just to the
wood, but not cut into it. The bud,
which is rectangular and of exactly
the same length as the distance be-
tween the two transverse cuts on the
stock, is removed from the bud stick
by first making two transverse cuts
of the proper distance apart to give
the correct length to the bud, and then
connecting these by two longitudinal
cuts about half an inch apart. The
bud proper should be approximately
in the center of this piece. The bud
is then easily removed by gently in-
serting the back of the knife blade
under one corner of the piece of bark,
and prying up, when it will be found
that it will readily part from the bud
+

Budding. Below—The Same for
Flute Budding. Reading from Left
to Right—The Stock Cut, the Bud

Bud Wrapped with Waxed Cloth,
the Bud Waxed and Completed.
stick. No wood should be removed
‘with the bud, and care should be taken
when the bud proper is extra large to
avoid pulling the soft wood or core
out of it. It may be necessary in
such a case to first loosen the bark
containing the bud, on one side up
to the bud proper, then carefully cut
this soft core with a knife and the
rest of the bud piece may be easily
removed. As soon as the bud is re-
moved from the bud stick is should
be inserted into the stock. This is
readily accomplished by first carefully
turning back the upper corners of the
“I” shaped cut, slightly prying them
away from the wood, then inserting
the base of the bud into the opening,
pushing it down until the top and bot-
tom of the bud are flush with the
transverse cuts on the stock, and the
bud lies smoothly and snugly against
the latter. By making the bud force
its own passage under the bark after
this manner there is much less ex-
posure to the air than if the sides of
' the cut are first turned back and the
bud then laid in place. The bud is
now ready for tying.
. The Flute Bud—In this method of
budding it is best to first shape the
bud and then cut the stock to fit it
‘The bud, which is rectangular, about
three-fourths of an inch long, and five-
.eighths of an inch wide is made and
removed from the bud stick exactly
i las in the Hinge Bud. When the cion
{bud is in place, care must be taken
| [that the sides of the bud fit up snugly
‘all around.
In either case, after the bud is in
place the two are snugly wrapped.
{Special care should be exercised in
‘the wrapping to see that the bud is
pressed firmly against the wood of
ithe stock. Much of the success of the
joperation depends on proper wrapping.
In many cases there is a prominent
elevation where the leak stalk has
jbecome detached, and unless care is
lused in pressing this down firmly in
‘the tying it will draw away and no
union will result. When properly
‘tied, wrap the entire bud with waxed
‘cloth to keep out moisture and air,
and wax all over. The following wax
is recommended: Rosin, 5 pounds;
beeswax, 1 pound; finely pulverized
‘wood charcoal, 1% pound; raw linseed
oil, 1 gil. First melt the beeswax
and rosin, add the charcoal, stirring |’
constantly, and then add the oil.
Mould into cakes by pouring into
greased pans. When desiring to use
break off a few lumps, melt and apply
in a liquid state with a brush or swab.
A Simple Remedy.
When the fowl “rattles in the
throat” there is evidence that there is
some bronchial affection. This “rat-
tling” will be more plainly noticed at
night when the fowls are roosting.
Give a teaspoonful every other morn-
ing of a mixture composed of equal
parts of vinegar and water. If this
is not effective, treat with a mixture
of one part of turpentine with four
parts of sweet oil, giving ten drops
daily.
Mark Your Eggs.
If you have more than 50 hens it
will be a source of satisfaction to
know from which group your eggs
came and this can usually be told by
marking the birds with leg bands and
by the use of the trap nesta.
By JOSIE ROYSE.
“Baby games!” whispered the girl
with the high collar, disdainfully, as
she glanced at the table of puzzles
laid out for the entertainment of the
guests. “What bright ideas some peo-
ple do have! I wouldn't waste my
time over them!” Then she settled
back in an arm chair.
“No, thank you. I don’t believe I'll
try tonight,” she replied to her hos-
tess, who asked her to choose a puz
gle. “I passed the age for those
things ten years ago.” With that she
smiled so superciliously that the hos-
tess flushed, but passed on to the
next guest without comment.
“Here!” remonstrated the young
man with a white carnation in his
coat. “I get another choice! This
one is a mistake. It never was in-
tended to come apart, and so it isn't
fair! Give me that heart thing—it
looks easy!”
“You foolish boy!” exclaimed the
girl with the high collar. “Getting ex-
cited about a puzzle! Why, I could
work them all when I was twelve
years old!”
“Maybe 80,” replied the man with
the carnation. “It'll take some dem-
onstration to prove it, however. Here
take-this jigger and see if you can get
the inside out, without untying the
string!” He handed her a puzzle.
“Thank you!” laughed the girl with
the high collar, laying down the puz-
zle. “I think I'll gain more by just
thinking than by doing anything so
perfectly useless!”
“Well, then, here's something to sit
and think about,” exclaimed the girl
with the violets. “Just mediate on
the fact that they say it’s gospel truth
that you can get this dingus off this
other dingus without breaking the wire
—that it just slips off like a ring! I'd
deny it, but Sally turned her back on
me just a tenth of a second and then
“Just Attend to Your Own Knitting.”
‘showed it to me all apart. Another
tenth of a second put it all together
again! I'm swamped!” She sat
tdown in grim earnest to pore over
her individual problem.
“Oh, I've got mine!” cried the girl
{who had been silently working. “I've
‘got it, and it’s just as easy! Watch!”
'She took apart her puzzle and put it
together before the others with the
air of a magician.
“Huh! You chose the easiest thing
‘in the lot!” retorted the young man
‘with the carnation. “Here, I'll ex-
change, and then see who’s the smart.
ier!”
i “Look here,” said the meditative
man, coming up from his cornor and
‘speaking slowly. “If any of you can
give me an inkling how to do this, I'll
give a prize myself! They say’—he
‘placed skeptical emphasis on the
square. I'll give five cents to the
person who can—"
“Oh, do your own sums!” advised
the young man with the carnation.
“We've got our own reputation to live
up to, and if I get this one thing
isolved before morning I shall be ever-
ilastingly proud of myself!”
+ “Let's see it,” said the girl with the
thigh collar, laughingly. The medita-
itive man handed his puzzle to her ang
then stood watching.
' “I think you must turn this thing
‘around the end,” murmured the girl
with the high collar, as she worked
iconcentratedly at the puzzle. But
{nothing came apart. :
“Turn it the other way,” suggested
Some on, pausing to watch.
“Now, you just attend to your own
knitting!” flashed the girl with the
‘high collar. “I’m going to earn that
nickel!”
She worked silently some minutes.
“Oh, I can’t do this ome,” she ex-
'claimed. “The idea of asking me to
‘solve a puzzle that a grown man had
to give up!” She picked out another
from the box. “This one looks eas-
ier.” :
“Ask your baby brother how,” sar-
-castically advised the girl with the
violets. “They're so easy, he’ll show
you!”
. But the girl with the high collar
was too absorbed to notice the re-
mark.
“My dear,” she whispered to her
hostess upon leaving, “may I take
this one home? I think I've got an
idea and I want to try to work it out.
How did you ever think up such a
‘clever plan as to have puzzles? I've
had the most exciting time. I hate
to leave without trying them all!”
The hostess opened her lips and
then closed them discreetly, without
speaking.—Chicago Daily News.
