HENS IN WINTER
They Stop Layins Egsrs Because They
Acquire Too Much Fat
That hens stop laying as winter
progresses is a fact known to everv
farnier and chicken fancier; also. Indi
rectly, to every hoasewive through the
rise in the price of eggs. Tiie re-.ism is
explained by the Revue Seientiflque,
which says that the egg protlueing or-,
gans degenerate through too much fat.
• This condition is the consequence of
j too great abundance of food 'lring the
winter, coupled with lack of exercise,
due to the narrow limits of the ordi
| nary chicken run.
i The fat invades the liver and piles
up in the heart; the bload becomes slug
gish and the lungs do take up
enough oxygen to insure coiiiiius.ion of
, the fat.
"The obvious remely," says the
Scientific American, "is to give dess
ftxxl to hens which stjp laying." Mr.
Brochemin, in an article in L'Acclima
tition, advises that stArchy foods, such
as corn, rice and Iwrfey, be limited,
while an abundance of such green food
as cabbage, be'led -lover, sorrel, etc.,
be given. Also the hens must be made
to take exorcise bv giving them a large
run ami by mixing th(Mr food with
, straw, etc., so that they will have to
I work for their food.

A Precedent
It is indeed gratifying to glance over our shoulder at the past two
weeks of this Great February Furniture Sale, and note how the busi
ness thermometer has jumped, day by day, ahead of any previous rec
ords in furniture history.
The credit rightfully goes to an appreciative public; nor can we
doubt this fact, when folks are frank enough to tell us that everything
in connection with this sale is "so different, " after they have made
comparisons.
Numerous ones comment upon t he oddity of extreme Period designs;
others speak of the pleasing varieties, and on all sides are remarks
about the wonderful values.
Thank you, we say again, and wish to remind you of a standing invi
tation to come in, look around, get ideas— any time. You're always
welcome; and during the next two sale weeks, there'll be just as inter
esting things to see.

Coffee Beans
Coffee grains are only the seed of a
fruit which is very much like a cherry.
It is very sweet and has a good taste.
When the fruit is dried it shrivels up
around the coffee grains, of which there
are two in each one of the round balls,
with the flat sides together. Sometimes
in the cheaper kinds of coffee these lit
tle dried balls are found with the two
coffee grains snuglv held inside.
Cause of Hilarity

"I don't sec anything particularly

WAK HORSES IN BATTLE
Cavalry Mounts Kevel in the Dash and
Fury of the Charge
It will probably surprise jou, said a
retired colonel of hussars, to learn that
;i cavalry horse usually enjoys a battle
at least sis much as his rider and dis
plays as much courage in it. He will
chafe and stamp with impatience while
waiting for the order to charge and at
the signal will dash forward like a grey
hound released from the leash, full of
tire and fury and often neighing wildly.
At the moment of contact with the ene
my he will rear, striking and biting
savagely at the opposing horses and
trampling down Hie infantry.
When his rider falls he will dash
along with his fellows and crash as
gallantly into the foe. In the famous
charge of the Light Brigade scores ot'
riderless horses swept down the ••val
ley of death," thundering through the
smoke on to the Russian guns, and gal
loped back in safety with the shattered
remnant of the brigade. Five horses
.raced neck and neck with Lord Alfred
Paget, who rode in advance of the line,
so eager were they to get at the enemy.
And not only' is the well trained
charger as brave as his rider. He is
often as intelligent. He knows .the
Ibugle calls just as well and answers
them as promptly. In fact. I have
known many a case in which a horse
has put his rider right when he has mis
taken an order and has gone faultlessly
through a maneuver in spite of the ef
forts of his mistaken master to make
'him do the wrong thing.—London Tit-
Bits.
An Error Perpetuated
The compositor, wtoo has been ac
cused of many things, seems really to
have been resqxmsible for the fixing of
the festival of St. Albany, the first Brit
ish martyr, on June 1" in the English
calendar. All otiher saints re-cognized
by the English and Roman churches
in common are honored on the same
days in both calendars, but in tto.i
Roman calendar St. Alban's day is
June 22. In all English prayer books
also, prior to 1662, St. Alban is com
memorated on June 22. and the pres
ent discrepancy seems to have arisen
from the typesetter of the prayer book
of 1662 mistaking Hie X of XXII for
V and ren'liering the date June XVII
—an error which has been perpetuated
ever since.—London Chronicle.
