to lie uncomfortably warm. At New

"We have nearly an hour to wait
in Providence," he remarked finally,
•'.-•ii we might as well have lunch
t here."
"All right, dear." said Helen, try
ing t.o force a little enthusiasm Into
lier voice, "I think it will be nicer
to do that than to eat on the train.
I wonder if the brakeman could open
this window for us. It would be so
much cooler."
"I'll see if I can open it. What
they want the windows closed for is
more than I can understand." And
Warren tugged at the window, which
remained obstinately shut.
"Can we have this window open,
conductor?" as the conductor came
thruugh and stopped to watch his
efforts.
don't believe I can manage it
for you," he said, obligingly coming
into the seat and trying to force it
open. "Hardly any of-the windows In
this train are ever opened, and they
Jet stuck."
"Looks as if we'd have to give it
up as a bad job," remarked Warren
llnally, and Helen smiled faintly at
the humor of the situation, in spite
of the fact that she had never been
so uncomfortable in her life.
Warren had brought some maga
zines on the boat, ad Helen took
one up and began to look through
It listlessly. One of the stories at
tracted her in spite of herself, and
she began to read at first mechanic

about a girl on a train, a girl who
was of course unusually attractive,
and when circumstances had forced
to travel alone. She was having a
course of thrilling adventures, one of
young man and a lost dress suit case.

The story ended in the conventional
manner, and she had not enough am
bition to begin another, so she rested
tier head against the hot red plush
and closed her eyes. She had not
•slept very well last night and the
motion of the train gradually soothed
her nerves. She had really been
sound asleep when they reached
Providence, and as she followed War
ren into the station she felt better.
"Feel hungry?" he said, turning
as they waited to check their bags.
'Not very, dear. I'd like something
cold to drink."
"Worst thing in the world for you:
you'll feel better when we've had some
lunch. ! don't think there's a restau
rant connected with the station, but
I'll find out."
In the station they found nothing
but a lunch counter.
"There surely must be a place near
the station where we could have a
table." suggested Helen, who hated
the idea of sitting up at the counter
for anything to eat.
"We'll see what we can do. I'll ask
this boy selling papers. He ought to
know of some place."
"Hey, sonny, do you know of a
place near the station where we could
get something to eat?"
"Well," he said, finally, "there's a
fine place around the corner where
they have tables, name Is Holman.

reached the end of the block the
name Holman stared at them from
a large awning.
"Mlsrht as well try it, 1 suppose;
the hotels In Providence are nowhere
near the station."
The place was filled with business
men and there was only one other
woman in the place, but Helen anrl
Warren were show.n to a clean little
table In. the corner with an electric
fan buzzing away overhead, and a
tidy waitress came tip In a few min
utes and briskly asked what they
would have to eat.
"I'm hungry," declared Warren:
"guess I'll have a steak and some
French fried potatoes."
The thought of hot food made
Helen f.lmnst faint; she didn't feel as
if she could eat a thing.
"What'll you have—a salad? All
right, that's better for you anyway;
sure that's enough?"
"A club sandwich," turning to the
waitress, "and some hot tea. I guess
that's all."
"You're not going to have any of
that iced stuff," in answer to Helen's
protests. "Drink some water if you
want it. but you're going to have
some hot tea; then you can tell me
if you didn't feel better."
Their order came and Warren be
| gan to eat heartily. No amount of
hot weather could stop him on the
1 eating question. Helen ate her club
sandwich with real enjoyment and
: began to feel better. Warren In
; sisted on the cup of hot tea, and al
though it made her very warm for
a few minutes she was glad after a
while that Warren had ordered It.
I He drank hot coffee himself and told
j Helen he felt ten per cent, cooler
l when he was through.
"Pay at the desk." said the little
I waitress, picking up Helen's gloves
which had fallen to the floor, and
IWarren left a substantial tip under
j his plate as they got up to go.
"Good service," he remarked to
| Helen as they strolled slowly up to
i the station, "and as good a little
i meal as I've had in some time for the

"I don't know as it would. Most

, moments with their hags and an
nounced that their train would be in
soon.
"We might as well go downstairs.
i I'm not sure where the New York
trains come in. and there's no need of
losing any time looking for the right
platform.
There was quite a crowd waiting
for the New York express, which
came thundering in a few minutes
later, and Helen wondered where they
had all gone, for the chair car was
nearly empty.
"A great many of them get off at
New London and don't bother to get

"And we'll ... ..s when we
start and they v. .1. :\.a at the eight
of our steel!" said Eugene Aronson.
He and Hugo alone, not excepting Pil
fer, the butcher's eon. rpoke In their
natural voices. The others were try
ing to make their voices sound natu
ral, while Piher's voice had devel
oped a certain ferocity, and the liver
patch on his che?k twitched more fre
quently. "Why, Company B Is la
front! We have tho post of honor, and
maybe our company Tvl'.l win the moat
glory of any la the regiment!" Eu
gene added. "Oh, we'll beat them!
: The bullet is not made that will get
me!"
"Your servlco will be over In time
for you to help with tho spring plant
ing, Eugene," whispered Hugo, who
waa apparently preoccupied with many
detached thoughts.
"And you to bo at home sucking
lollipops!" Fllzcr growled to Hugo.
"That would bo better than murder
ing my fellowroan to get his property,"
Hugo answered, so robcrly that it did
not seem to his comrades that he was
joking this time. Piker's snarling ex
clamation of "White feather!" came 'n
the midst of a chorus of indignation.
Captain Fracasre, who had heard
only the disturbance without knowing
the cause, interfered In a low, sharp
tone:
"Silence! As I have told you bo
fore, silence! We don't want them to
know that we are here. Go to sleep!
You may get no rest tomorrow night!"
But little Peterkln, the question In
his mind breaking free tf his lips, un
wittingly asked:
"Shall —shall we fight In the morn
ing?"
"I don't know. Nobody knowsf" an
swered Fracasre. '"We wait on orders,
ready to do our duty. There may be
no war. Don't let me hear another
peep from you!"
Now all closed their eyes. In front
of them was vaU silence which
seemed to stretch from end to end of
the frontier, while to the rear was the
rumble of switching railway trains
and the rumble of provision trains and
artillery on tlie roads, and in the dis
tance on the plain the headlight of a
locomotive cut a strath in the black
night. But the breathing of most of
the men was not that of slumber,
though Eugene and Pllzer slept
soundly. Hours passed. Occasional
restless movements told of efforts to
force eleep by changing position.
"It's the waiting that's sickening!"
exploded the manufacturer's son un
der his breath, desperately.
"8o I say. I'd like to be at it and
done with the suspense!" said the
doctor's son.
"They say if you are shot through
the head you don't know what killed
you It's so quick. Think of that!"
exclaimed Peterkln, huddling cloeer to
Hugo and shivering.
"Yes, very merciful," Hugo whis
pered, patting Peterkin's arm.
"Sh-h-h! Silence, I tell you!" com
manded Fracasee crossly. He was
falling Into a half doze at last.
In marching; order, with cartridge
boxes full, on Saturday night, the 63d
of the Browns marched out of bar-
racks to the main pass road. One
company after another left the road at
a given point, bound for the position
mapped in Its Instructions. Dellarme'e,
however, went on until it was oppo
site the Galland house.
""We are depending on you," the
oolonel said to Dellarme, giving his
band a grip. "You are not to draw
oft till you get the flag."
"No, sir," Dellarme replied.
"Mind the signal to the batteries —
keep the men *creened--warn them
not to let their first baptism of shell
Are break their nerves!" the colonel
added in a final repetition of instruc
tions already tndellbiy '.inririxeed on
the captain's mind.
Moving oauttous!* through a cut,
Dellarme's company r.an:e, About mid
night, to a halt amonr -he stubble of
a wheat-field behind a knoll. After
he had bidden tb<> men to break ranks,
he crept, up the '.nclirii

"kept cautioning aa the men turned the
•oft earth, "ann not higher than the
«ord, and lay tho etubble side of the
jaods on the reverse so as to covet
'the fresh eau'th on the sky-line.'
When the work was done all !•©•
tarned behind tho knoll except the
•entries posted at Intervals on the
crest to watch. With the aid of a
small electric flash, screoned by his
hands, Dellarmo again examined a sec
tion of the etafT map that outlined the
contour of the knoll In relation to the
other positions. After this he wrote
In his diary the slmplo facts of the
day's events, concluding with a senti
ment of gratitude for the honor
shown his company and a prayer that
he might keep a clear head and do
his duty if war came on the morrow.
"Now, every one get all tho sleep he
can!" he advised the men.
Straneky slept with his head on his
arm, soundly; the others slept no bet
ter than the men of the 128 th. The
night passed without any alarm ex
cept that of their own thoughts, and
they welcomed dawn as a relief from
suspense. There was no hot coffee
thia morning, and they washed down
their rations with water from their
canteens. The old sergeant was lying
beside Captain Dellarme on the crest,
the sunrise In their faces. As ttie mist
cleared from the plain it revealed the
white dots of the fritter posts In the
meadow and behind them many gray
figures in skirmish order, scarcely vis
ible except through the glasses.
"It looks like business!" declared
the old sergeant.
"Yes, it begins the minute they
croes the line!" said Dellarme.
Hie glance sweeping to the rear to
scan the landscape under the light of
day, he recognized, with a sense of
pride and awe, the tactical importance
of his company's position In relation
to that of the importance of the other
companiae. Easily he made out the
regimental line by streaks of con
cealed trenches and groups of brown
uniforms; and here and there were
the oblong, cloth stretches of waiting
hospital litters. On the reverse slope
of another knoll was the farmhouse,
marked X on his map as the regimen
tal headquarters, where he was to
watch for tho signal to fall back from
his first stand In delaying the enemy's
advance. Directly to the rear was the
cut through which the company had
come from the main pass road, and be
yond that the Galland house, which
was to be the second stand.
Now Dellarme disposed his men In
line back of the ridge of fresh er.fth
that they had dug In the night, ready
to rush to their places when he blew
the whistle that hung from his neck,
but he did not allow them a glimpse
over the crest.
"I know that you are curious, but
powerful glasses are watching for you
to show yourselves; and if a battery
turned loose on us you'd
he explained.
Thus the hor.rs wore on. and the
cburch clock struck nine and ten.
"Never a movement down there!"
called the sergeant from the crest to
Dellarme. "Maybe this is just their
final bluff before they come to terms
about Bodlapoo"—that stretch of Af
rican Jungle that seemed very far
away to them all.
"Let us hope so!" said Dellarme
seriously.

EGGSHELLS OF WILD
BIS ARE MED
Domestic Fowls Do Not Need to
Hide Theirs Behind Mot
tled Colors
Considering both wild and domes
tic birds of all sorts, eggshell ranges
from white to deep colors through a
variety of tints and mottllngs. The
eggs of domestic fowls are not highly
colored. Those of hens vary from
white to a light or deep brownish
tint, the eggs from a particular breed
being very similar as regards their
color. The eggs of ducks are bluish
white; those of geese are commonly
white. The eggs of guinea fowls are
white or dark brown, more or less,
mottled with a deeper shade, and the
eggs of turkeys are usually speckled
with a yellowish brown.
Any special coloring of eggs of wild
birds Is commonly explained as a pro
tective measure which has been de
veloped to render teh eggs Incon
spicuous In their normal suroundings,
and therefore less easily found by their
enemies.
There is no relation between the
color of the shell and the composition
of the egg, notwithstanding the pop
ular belief that the dark shelled eggs
are "richer." Extended investigations
in which many analyses were made of
eggs from different kinds of hens,
showed plainly that there are no uni
form variations in the physical prop
erties and chemical composition of
brown-shelled and white-shelled eggs.
DON'T MARKET EGGS
FROMIIDDENIEST
Only the Freshly Laid Ones Should
Be Taken Out For
Sales
Great difference in eggs are com
mon. They must, first of all, be
newly laid, that is to say. not over one
week old. If the poultry house and
nests are kept clean and the eggs
gathered regularly each day and
placed in a cool, dry, clean room,
they should suit the requirements of
the most delicate taste. Eggs gath
ered from the "hidden nest" should
be used at home and never marketed
for there is bound to be uncertainty
as to their age. Daily or at least
twice a week deliveries are necessary
with a private family trade.
On the whole "eggs is eggs" when
they go to or leave the average coun
try store. It is a downright injustice
to the hens that laid the eggs, to the
man who grew the grain to produce
them, and to the one who gathers
them thus, to sell eggs for the lowest
possible price. The element of un
certainty as to just what is covered by
the egg shell exaggerates the real dif
ference in quality and magnifies the
premium paid for guaranteed fresh
eggs. In other words, people are will
ing to pay an extra price rather than
take any chances. While the general
quality of market eggs has consider
ably increased in some respects of late
years, due to the more systematic
method In handling of eggs by large
dealers, the feature of age, which has
much to do with quality, remains the
same.
Leaders in the Big
International Laying
Contests at Storrs
Ten leading pens to date in the third
international laying contest at Storrs,
Conn., are as follows: White leg
horns. Connecticut, 1,864 eggs; White
Wyandottes, England, 1,835 eggs;
White Leghorns, England, 1.775;
White Wandottes, Connecticut, 1,681;
White Wyandottes. Rhode Island, 1,-
671; Rhode Island Heds, Connecticut,
1,592; White Leghorns, Pennsylvania,
1,588; White Leghorns, New York,
1,567; White Leghorns, New York.
1.556; White Leghorns, Pennsylvania,
1,545.
It will lie noticed that Leghorns and
Wyandottes are monopolizing interest
in this competition. In the forty
seventh week, just closed, honors were
almost evenly divided between the
heavier breeds and Leghorns. Rhode
Island Reds and Leghorns tied for
first place with forty-seven eggs each.
The total yield for all pens amount
ed to 2.33S eggs, or 528 less than the
preceding week. This is an average
of 334 eggs a day from the 820 hens,
or a yield of about 41 per cent. This.
In spite of the loss as compared with
the preceding week, is considered
good laying when it is remembered
that the hens are nearing the end of
their year's work and that the molt
ing season is now well under way.
During the past week a total of 91
birds were marked up as molting. In
one pen of Plymouth Rocks alone six
birds had started the business of shed
ding their old feathers and growing
new ones and it is of course and ex
ceptionally good hen that can grow
feathers and lay eggs at the same
time.
Here Are Some Tips
About Handling Males
in Nonbreeding Time
Three ways of handling males dur
ing the nonbreeding season are pos
sible. The first is to keep them con
fined to small separate coops by them
selves. This is expensive as to labor
and equipment and does not permit of
sufficient exercise. The second is to
allow the males to run with the flock
all the year. Except for the very
great disadvantage of producing fer
tile eggs during the hot weather, this
is the most economical and best meth
od so far as the welfare and well be
ing of the hens and males are con
cerned. The third practice is to re
move all males from the flocks dur
ing the summer and keep them In
a flock by themselves, far removed
from the hens to prevent lighting. If
a large range with numerous feeding
and watering places is provided and if
the males are watched at first to pre
v< nt serious Injury from lighting, the
plan works well.
There is more to curing for a male
bird than most breeders suppose and
110 matter what plan is followed the
bird should never be frightened. By
becoming nervous and wild his value
in the breeding pen will have been
much impaired. His feed must be
wholesome and vnried and his sur
roundings sanitary or the bird's vital
>Uy wUi cicUM bfi lowered. (
GET YOUR LAYING
QUARTERS IN SHAPE
Birds Should Be Matured in Houses
in Which They Spend
Winter
One of the important things for
the flock raiser to have in mind now
is the importance of getting the lay
ing quarters Into shape. Very often
this is delayed by the pressure of
other work or by the failure of the
keeper to realize that the season is
fast advancing. All else being equal,
a flock that is put into winter laying
quarters by September 1 will outdis
tance a similar flock not quartered so
early.
The ideal way is to mature the
birds in the house in which they will
pass their winter, but If this is not
possible the,early housing of the flock
is most flesiVable. It is not amiss to
say that the average flock will take
nearly a month to get thoroughly ac
customed to new quarters. The aim
of every commercial poultryman
should be to have his flock laying by
October 1. This cannot always be done
but It should always be attempted.
Much of the success of commercial
poultry farming depends upon the
number of eggs obtained during Oc
tober, November and December—
months during which the poorly kept
and unsuccessful flock does not lay,
and during which even the wholesale
price of eggs reaches and pusses the
tlve-cents-each mark.
DON'T LET YOUR
HENS CATCH COLD
Cool Nights and Frosty Mornings
Are Conducive to Ancient
Complaint
Cool nights and frosty mornings
are conducive to what poultrymcn call
"Fall colds." Perhaps one of the
prime causes of this trouble with the
growing stock is poor ventilation in
the sleeping quarters. This matter of
fresh air is not Infrequently over
looked because of the fact that as
chicks are weaned from the brooder
and put out 011 range quarters they
doubtless have lots of room and lots
of air. Meanwhile, It is forgotten
that they are arriving at maturity
and that they are more than twice
as crowded as they were formerly even
though there are the same number
of chicks in the same house. Thus
the birds crowd in at night, sweat
more or less, go out early in the
morning and become chilled, as a re
sult of which there is a discharge
from the nose and presently a rat
tling in the throat. If considerable
care is not exercised at this point roup
will follow.
Fn discussing this matter at the an
nual convention of Connecticut poul
trymen, a breeder of wide experience
suggested the following remedy and
said that he had used it' with much
success for many years: Magnesia
(oxide) 4.G parts; magnesium sul
phate, 52.0 parts; sulphate of iron
(copperas) 8.0 parts; sulphur, 14.01
parts; ground ginger, 8:5 parts; oxide
of iron (rouge), 1.0 parts. This makes
a roup powder and the method of ad
ministering is to give one tablespoon
ful for each ten or twelve birds daily
in the wet mash and continue this for
a week or two, or longer if necessary.
Trenton Inter-state
Fair to Award Egg
and Poultry Prizes
The poultry department of the
Trenton inter-state fair, which is now
under the management of Harvey 10.
Kodgers, will add several dis
tinctly new features to this year's
show. The utility feature of the show
I will comprise a class for four to six
j pound cockerels suitable for roasters;
! a class for pullets; a class for four
I hens and a male suitable for breeding
purposes in meat production and a
similar class suitable for breeders in
egg production. A big capon class 1
is also Included. I.iberal cash prem
iums will be awarded.
The egg show includes a class of one
dozen each of white or brown-shelled
