And what was the offense {rom which
the fairy had suffered? With regard
to this also the story is silent. Per-
haps they had omitted to coffer up
prayers to her at the baptism of the
king's daughter. However this might
be, it is certain enough that the fairy
was in a great rage.
She asked herself at first
she should devastate the
sending out the thousands «of spirits
that served her to set fire to all the
palaces and all the cottagers, or wheth-
er she should cause all the lilacs and
all the roses fo fade. or whether she
should turn all rhe young girls into
ugly old women. She could have let
loose all the four winds nupon the
streets, and laid low the and
trees., At ler command fire-spitting
mountains would have buried the en-
tire land with burning
sun would have turned fron its path
s0 as not to shine upon thie accursed
¢ity. But she did worse. Like
a thief, who leisurely chooses the most
precious jewels in a case, she removed
from the memory of men and women
the three divine words:
“I love you!”
And having brought this affliction,
she removed herself with a light smile
on her lips that would have been more
hideous than the church of the devil
if she had not had the me beautiful
rosy lips in, all creation.

Hardly! Your thoughts would turn

Capitol cost more than the National

Keeping Milk Clean.
Of all methods that have been tried
by dairymen to secure clean milk dur-
ing the operation of milking. sponging
the animal's flank and wiping with a
dry cloth have proved of most value.
A carbolic sciution bas been found
effective for sponging. but bas an of-
fensive odor, while vaseline and other
oils cost considerable and are difficult
to apply and keep tlie hands of the
milker clean.
The best treatment is to sponge off
the animal's flank and udder shortly
before milking. wiping it as dry as pos-
sible with the sponge, but.not so dry
that dust will fall again before milk-
ing is completed. If this is done but
little dirt will get into the milk and
the keeping qualities of the cream and
butter wil he very much inereased.

Farmers Live Well But Cheaply.
Mr. Collingwood, editor of the Rural
New Yorker, after having taken din-
ner in a select resfaurant and examin-
ing the prices cn the hill of ‘ure, found
that the supper be had tbe night be-
fore at his own home, cousisting of
bread and butter, pot cheese, lima
beans and baked appies (each one of
the fifteen persons partaking” of the
supper having two large dishes of lima
peas aud our good-sized apple), would,
at the same rates, figure up $18 for the
beans and applies alone, aside fron the
other things. Then he says:
“That's what rou mw.ght call high
living for a farmer. 1 will guarautee
that both beans and apples were fresh-
er and beer ‘han those served at the
public table. You see, a farmer does
not know how he takes a seat among
the mighty until his garden walks
through tue Kkitcher and jumps on the
table. Then a» can compare prices
with the mighty, and tower over them.
No use talking, a good ga: den is the
best part of the farm. We can step
into our garden at any “ime and help
ourselves to the following: S-reast corn,

Training Heifers,
A calf should be trained from birth,
gradually in the way it should go by a
constant progressive course of kind,
considerate treatment. A heifer calf
should be weaned at its birth to ob-
literate proclivities before they grow
into habits. The calf should not be
permitted to suck the dam, but be
taught to drink from a pail. It should
be handled and brushed quite fre-
quently. It will soon become used to
it and make no resistance, rather like
it. As it grows older the udder and
teats should be rubbed and pulled
gently, as if milking. This not only
makes it docile, but aids in the devel-
opment of the udder and increases its
future capacity. A heifer may be
brought to milk in this way before she
has had a calf, and instances of this
lacteal precocity are not infrequently
seen in dairies where calves are al-
lowed to suck each other. When the
well educated heifer has a calf it is
already trained, and breaking with the
discipline of a club, a boot or a milk-
ing stool should no: be necessary.
Cow ‘ Poke,*®
In the illustration below is shown a
device invented by a western man,
which is commenly called a “poke” in
vestern parlance. It is of the type
which consists primarily of a yoke of
peculiar form, by which it is secured
to the animal, and arms projecting
upward and downward, which are util
ized to retard the animal in attempts
ing to pass the fence by engagement
with the latter. The yoke consists of
curved side bars adapted to embrace
I’revents the Cow From Jumping.
the neck of the animal upon opposite
sides and to be secured in this position.
The bars are pivoted together at
their lower extremities and secured at
the top by a bolt, one of the bars
extending above the bolt, the projec-
tion engaging the fence should the
animal attempt to break througn. Con-
nected with the yoke is a ring, which
fits about the nose of the animal, and
attached by links, which rest upon op-
posite sides of the head. The links
have eyes a: each erd, the end engag-
ing with the yoke and ring. Attached
to the pivot at the end of the yoke is
a bar having a projection at one end,
and is bent to connect with the ring
over the head of the animal.
A projection on this bar also retards
the animal in any attempt to break
through the fence, as pressure exerted
upon the projection extends to the ring.

A LIFE STORY.
Fragedy Again Revealed in the Great
Metropolis of London.
An inquest was held the other day
in London on the death of a woman
seventy-three years old. Her sister,
seventy years oid, testified at the in-
guest. She said she and her sister had
lived together and supported them-
selves by making men’s neckties.
“Ihat were you paid?’ the corrner
asked.
“Pivepence and sixpence a dozen,”
(ten or twelve cents).
“How many dozen could you make
in an hour?’
“We rarely made more than two
dozen a day between us. We are not
like the young omnes. ‘They might earn
more.”
“You earned :about a shilling dwen-
ty-five cents) a day, then,” said a juror.
“How many hours a day did you
work?’ the coroner asked.
“We used to get up at six o'clock i
che morning, and work till dark in the
summer.”
“I suppose you earn. nothing this
weather. It doesn’t pay te burn gas
or oil?
“No. We have done nothing at all
ately, our eyes were so bad.”
“xX jin told you kept your sister
ome’ time,” the coroner continued.
“Yes, as well as I could till eight
weeks ago, when I broke my arm.
That was the death of her.’—Evening

The Meaning of '“ Goo-Goo’’ Eyea,
Judge Kirlicks, of Houston, Texas,
has banded down an opinion defining
the meaning of ‘“‘goo-goo” eyes, as fol-
lows: .
By the term ““g00-goo eyes” is meant
any contortion, unusual movement, or
any fixed, unusual attitude of the eyes,
providing the said contortion, unusual
movement or unusual fixed attitude is
mage with the intent of attracting. al-
luring the attention of any woman or
female. It will be noted that such
eyes, if made at an infant in arms, pro-
vided it is of the gentler sex, is un-
lawful upon the streets of the city.
The “intent” is the point upon which
the main construction must be placed.
A stare is a “goo-goo eye” if it is
committed with intent.
Judge Kirlicks further held that a
wink, accompanied by an intent, is a
“200-g0o,” likewise the cocking of an
eye. ogling, making wide eyes, all
come within the broad sweep of the
term “gog-goo,” if accompanied by in-
tent.
