THE FUTURES

Dost thou behoM that sea?
It stretches out before thee, bright and
till:
No sound of tumult does the calm air fill;
All speaks serenity!
The path along the shore
Is bright with ttowers that bloom and fntte
by turns,
'And high above the grasses and green ferns
iWaves the tall sycamore.
That path thou still must tread;
'Ani though the trees grow sparser by the
walk,
And blossoms wither on the drying stalk,
By gentle showers unfed,
Still thou must tread that strand,
!And gaze on the horizon rolled in mist;
lis useless fo complain or to resist J
God holds thee by the hand.
l
And thou that flood must cross;
At some strango moment shall thy path
way bend,
Ere vet perchance its beauty is at end
Or thou has felt its loss.

( BRICKS AND HIS HONOR.

' Cyrus Blggerslake, of Montana, ;
discovered San Francisco and Miss
Sadie Van Vlnka simultaneously.
This corpulent little man with one
eye on Providence (alluded to by
Ills friends as "that horrible squint")
adopted the former without ques
tion, and was similarly adopted by
the latter. Miss Van Vlnka con
fessed there was really nothing In
him; that he had merely captured
her by an epigrammatical remark
on her favorite poet, Austin Dobson,
"that Giant In Trifles;" that she was
dying to change her name; that he
was so like a little dog of hers that
had departed In peace.
Mr. Blggerslake took to the Idea
of double harness kindly when she
proposed to him behind a potted
palm in the Palace Hotel. He was
suffering from one of his periodical
fits of somnolent boredom, and, ,
though marriage had always been
labeled in his mind as a splendid
ein he would never have the courage
to commit, when this dashiDg vision,
with courage enough It seemed for
the two of them, paused for reply,
he coyly mumbled: "As soon as you
like," and minutely inspected the
TOOf.
As his bride prospective was a
"Van" and a popular society belle,
and he himself a reputed millionaire,
the press at once took the matter
In hand, giving a generous measure
of bold black type surrounding im
pressionist portraits, and, after hav
ing raked up a few dubious scandals
In connection with Mis3 Van Vlnka,
and commented disagreeably on Big
gerslake's Montana antecedents, they
unanimously united In blessing the
happy couple, and let it go at that.
The result, however, was quite
pitiful. Cyrus Blggerslake discov
ered he was passionately in love
with his wife, while his wife dis
covered that a leading physician,
Dr. .Charles Falloon, was the only
man In 'Frisco for her. Not that
Cyrus had ever let It appear he had
etill this discovery to make, or that
Sadie let it appear her discovery was
made. Both disposed of the matter
somewhat in the manner of an ex
perienced consumer of Manhattan
cocktails disposing of the cherry.
Mrs. Biggerslake had the courage
Of Pacific Coast opinions. She was
not one of those people with the fear
of Sunday editions in their hearts.
In fact, she was rather partial to
headlines, but she was strongly
averse to any vulgar scandal as be
came a late society belle and a
"Van," having that nice discrimina
tion in her character that enables
Justice in this country to distin
guish between a "rake-off" and a
gratuity.
The doctor became her cavalier
and confidant, as Cyrus possessed
bis guide, philosopher, and friend in
the person of Silas Moran, a promi
nent lawyer and "divorce special
ist" (as advertised); and, fortified
by her girlhood's experiences in
France (where they manage these
things so much better), it must be
conceded that she handled all parties
concerned with cosummate skill.
Her husband's "unfriscan" proclivl-
ties, those very traits that had origi
nally attracted, early started the
wheel of Fate. He obstinately re
fused to "take his position" In so
ciety,
"My little Masticator," he would
eay, reaching up to dab a cautious
thrilled finger into cosmetical snowy,
Bess, "San Franciscan society al
ways reminds me of popular photo
graphs of the moon." Sadie, with
her pearliness impaired, her temper
ruffled, and her brain awhirl in
cryptic labyrinths, would have
gnashed her teeth with rage had they
not been firmly embedded in gum.
What was to be done with, a man
who had even written a book?
though in truth it had never been
published and Silas Moran was the
only reader thereof to return it to
his anxious friend with laconic criti
cism: "The er punctuation is
admirable."
- The gist of the matter was that,
In marrying a man with nothing in
him, as she thought, she had mar
ried a man with a great deal
Ki him, though the soundings sel
dom proclaimed a depth of more
than a few inches anywhere. Dr.
Falloon was no villlan
"In tragic life, God wot.
No villlan need be"
Then happy shnlt thou be
If the dun vapor on the water' rim

Some bright reality:
Whether it be a scene
Of nature glorified by brighter skies.
Which, save in visions, greet no human
heavenly and serene
Or some city fnir,
Which opes its golden gates to thy repose.
Oh, happy they, who enter gntes like those
That shut out all despairl
But if the scene be black
Or opens but to caverns vast and cold;
Though thy tierce spirit be untamed and
bold,
Nor heed's the body's rack, , ..,
Think not to shun the view,
Nor hope to tread again thy earthly past.
Breathe forth one prayer, be it thy first or
last.
And bid this life adieu.

he was only Sadie's long felt want;
a man of little or no Individualism,
cast iron In manner, to be broken
but not bent, but with just enough,
for her purpose, of the sentiment,
peculiar to young nations, that enters
more or less Into American charac
ter. "He is totally ignorant of bridge,
thinks gambling sinful, abhors rac
ing, and is odiously polite," she con
fided with heaving bosom into her
doctor's "cold, calculating ear." "He
calls her a 'Jesuit in disguise' and
chuckles. He says he comes from
Montana, but" appalled "he must
be an Englishman!"
Grim-featured Falloon, whom she
had trained to stand on his hind
legs a la Dr. Johnson's dog, gave
her complete satisfaction. Mystery
stalked a-tlptoe. "Shade of Boccac
cio, we are burning expensive in
cense!" and so it was plotted.
In the midst of his petty hustlings
rushing In, rushing out, between
intervals of "browsing" in his lib
rary; sudden gusts of passion that
compelled him to dance attendance
up to the very doors of society, there
to hand Mrs. Biggerslake out o!
the automobile, bow, twiddle his
mustaches, and betake himself oft;
moon-struck periods during which
he gaped like the mouth of Hades,
swallowing his wife's little sins of
omission and commission .that came
flying in his face from all directions
("Caesar's wife!" he whispered to
himself) in the midst of all this,
with hints and warnings thrown
clean over his head by well-meaning
enemies, and muddy insinuations
cast by friends falling from his un
stained heart, Cyrus Biggerslake,
running out of his library one sum
mer's day, bubbling over with Im
portance, fell plump against Death
and Tragedy in a grim procession
passing through the hall.
Picture the poor little man, with
arms flung aloft and blanched face,
a wobbling note of interrogation!
Dr. Falloon, pale and bloody, tread
ing by the stretcher, gazed solemnly
at him, finger to lip. Friends and
servants held him back, to hold him
up a minute later, when the conclu
sive word, flitting on breathless
wings from tongue to tongue, flut
tered at last within his ear and
sucked his senses from him.
Judge then of the stir among the
brethren of the pen when one blaz
ing October forenoon Cyrus Biggers
lake whirled down Market street in
his automobile like a tornado, urg
ing his mahout to slay and spare not
the already outraged speed regula
tion, and with waving arms and
specimen oaths from Montana, dart
ed under the brandished police'
batons, and turned the corner into
Montgomery street on two wheels.
The fraternity resurrecting their
features from foaming schooners,
Ureal or imaginary, streaming in
frantic pursuit, found the chariot
indeed the mahout panting expla
nations to the scandalized majesty
of law but within the building,
whither he had fled, an elevator boy,
scared by his frantic appearance,
shot their object skyward like a
rocket from their upturned eyes and
lolling tongues.
"Elijah leaves us his mantle,'
quoth a brother, diving onto an en
velope addressed to Biggerslake in
a feminine hand. The pack pricked
ears and surged. But excitedly torn
apart the envelope was found to-con-
tain nothing.
Silas Moran, chewing a choice
Trinidad .over the morning's mail,
nearly bolted it whole at his friend's
cyclonic advent. Sinking Into a
Lpadded elbow chair in the lawyer's
sanctum, Cyrus could only toss his
hands and Jerk about: "My wife
my wife " puffing noisily. Moran
recovered himself, discarded the ci
gar, and waited in curious patience,
"Yes, my dear old friend," he said
at last soothingly, "the loss of your
good wife must be a terrible grief
to you, but "
"Good wife!"- shrieked Cyrus, sud
denly recovering his breath. "Good
wife indeed! She's not dead, Silas.
The whole thing was a put-up job.
She's gone off with Falloon. Jeers
at me from Los Angeles."
His voice broke into a scream, and
he threw his limbs about like a rude
ly bandied jointed doll,
"Keep quiet! Be calm!' deto
nated Moran In the voice that has
crushed many a cock-sure witness;
into a quivering heap. "Good heav
ens, Cyrus, if every man in 'Frls
whose wife had strayed behaved ll!u
you, the city would he an inferno."
The deserted husband controlled
himself with a great effort.
"Listen, I'll read you her letter,"
he said, pulling out the crumpled
communication whose erstwhile cov
ering at that moment reposed in a
dozen fragments in the pockets 01
the press.
"Then the coffin contained
interjected the lawyer.
"Bricks," replied Biggersl
"Bricks and my honor."
The phrase caught his fancy.
"Bricks and my honor," ha f-
peated.
Already his passion was dying
from exhaustion; his future pose Il
luminated the skyline of his thought.
The picture of a grave, gray-haired
man who 'never smiled rose before
him, pacing slowly down the years
In lonely majesty. People would
hush their voices at his approach,
and whisper In compassionate re
spect, "His heart is broken!" His
feelings were materializing.
During the reading, executed in
mechanical monotone (the reader's
thoughts being engrossed In him
self), -Moran, with his palms pressed
professionally together In the atti
tude of prayer, wrinkled his brow
and pursed his lips unavalllngly.
Ha failed entirely to discover what
was required of him. The letter
afforded him no clue, being simply
the senseless verbal vitriol of a silly
woman, flushed with victory and the
spoils thereof, who, not content with
knocking her aversion down, must
needs return to inflict fresh torture
on the dazed victim. It seemed,
however, that In this case the hot
shot had gone astray. Cyrus Big
gerslake looked up at its conclusion
with an almost pleased expression
like a baby.
"It is a singular case," said Moran,
groping for light. "I believe "
"Stop!" interrupted his friend,
scratching his head. "I am trying
to think."
For nearly a quarter of an hour
Biggerslake sat bent in meditation.
Moran followed him to the regions of
thought, tracing circles in the air
with his index finger.
"And so," said Cyrus, rising on a
sudden and stringing speech onto
wordless deliberations, "I will say
good-by. Sorry to have troubled
yon.
The formula begot its stereotyped
reply in Moran, more mystified than
ever, and before his brain could con
trol the machine movements of his
tongue, Cyrus Biggerslake had gone
forth from his presence, the complete
martyr, leaving a faint odor of gaso'
line. The summoning of the auto
mobile's master was productive of
great Journalistic activity, and the
breeze of excitement even stirred the
wings of the Press Club albatroas.
Those fatal fragments:
Presently the flaring Sunday edl
tlons showed their heads. The late
Mrs. Biggerslake, the supposed vie
ttm of an automobile accident, sworn
dead by her husband, certified dead
by Dr. Falloon, burled to all ap'
pearances, was alive, and living with
the aforesaid doctor at Los Angeles!
The city rocked with laughter.
"Go East!" implored the martyr's
friends. But Urus would not
could not.
"I have lost Sadie," he said, "but
I will not lose San Francisco."
The fascination of 'Frisco held
him In thrall. The erect alert car
riage of the inhabitants, due to gaz
Ing up at the Twin Peaks from one
end of Market street, and at the
Spreckels column" and the Ferry
Building clock from the other, had
his heart.
Leave 'Frisco? Never!
"Ridiculous sentimentalist!" cried
his friends, and vanished.
It must, then, have been sent!
mentalism that took him periodically
to . the cemetery with brilliant
wreaths, and arrived at the grave:
a torn soul. A stranger, in con'
versation with one of the attendants,
observing his abandonment of griel
at a distance, Inquired the clrcuni'
stances and the relationship of the
dead.
"Ob, he's bughouse," replied the
man, contemptuously. "Should be.
Napa for his. The grave's empty"
and so on, with the whole story
embellished and enlarged.
. But Biggerslake, his fat body
shaken with sobs, hung his wreaths
on the tombstone, oblivious, as fai
as might be, to the surrounding
world.
"Bricks and my honor," he gulped,
sinking on one knee.
In fact, Cyrus waB quite happy.

Cleaning and Taking Apart Machines
When one has to take apart l
machine for the purpose of cleaning
it and of making any repairs that
may be found on inspection neces
sary, the proper way Is not to tak
the whole thing apart, then to put
It together and next to test It to sec
it anything is broken or out of place;
but to test the machine before taking
it apart, then to inspect each plec
and mend or straighten it, and after
that to clean the whole thing and
assemble.
If, on the contrary, cleaning it
done before repairing, all the re
paired parts will have to be cleaned
again, thus not only Increasing the
cost of the job, but prolonging the
time of delivery which latter Is a
very Important element when we
are dealing with typewriting ma
chines. Scientific ..American.

"nig Ilccoids" Cost.
With an average cow it is possible
to get a production of TOOO or 8000
pounds of milk in a year at a mode
rate cost, but when you get beyond
this and try to make a "big record"
It adds materially to the cost. Prof.
Dean, of Ontario.
Keeping Cnttlo From Choking.
To keep a cow from choking when
eating potatoes and apples, which
you wish to feed, tie a rope around
the horns and to the foot to keep
her from raising her head above a
level; or, If in stable, fasten a block
cross the stanchion for the same
purpose.
Importance of Pedigree.
The importance of pedigree Is
highly appreciated by breeders. A
sire of relatively low personal stand
ard, but of good ancestry, is more to
be desirsd than one of inferior pedi
gree, though of individual excellence.
It requires, however, a wide ac
quaintance with the breed to read
the pedigree intelligently ond know
from it what may be expected in the
offspring.
Utilizing All Food.
AH nnimnhi on the farm prefer
foods that may not be relished by
some others. The farmer should
take advantage of this fact and util
ize a.il the materials that might be
wasted if there were some animals
that would accept them. A judicious
use of the feed cutter, mixing a little
bran or meal with the food, and
tempting the animal with a variety,
will render serviceable even such
foods as wheat straw and corn fod
der. There are several modes of
Berving corn fodder that will make it
acceptable to dainty animals.
Alkaline Soil Condition!).
Lime can alBo do harm if used In
judiciously. It may induce the soil
to give up plant foods by drawing too
heavily upon the resources of the
land. The mechanical effect of lime,
in changing the texture of tho soil,
is also' an important result of its use.
Lime gives excellent results when
used in connection with green crops
that are plowed under. It is the
manure, or crop, th-t provides tho
plant food, and not the lime, but
lime induces hasty action, and en
ables the materials added to the soil
to assume the forms available for the
plants. When the land is sour, and
grown over with sorrel (which con
tains oxalic acid), lime is said then
to "sweeten the boII" by removing
the sourness, but what it really does
is to assist in changing the acids of
the soil into carbonate of lime and
oxalate . of lime, through chemical
combinations, the sour soil becoming
alkaline because the lime has taken
up the acids which existed before Its
presence. With the changes thus
made follow others, but they may
bo rapid or slow according to circum
stances, sometimes the benefits of
lime not being apparent until the sec
ond year, but upon soils upon which
lime has not been applied for years
It never fails to give excellent results.
In proportion to the benefits derived
it costs but little, is plentiful, and
should be used extensively. Lime
may be said to be tho foundation of
the clover crop, wood ashes also be
ing excellent. Philadelphia Record.
Don't Side-Lino Your Pigs.
I know a farmer who formerly re
garded his hogs as a side line to his
business of grain growing. He
raised a number every j-ear, but they
were very scrubby stock; yet he al
ways looked to his hog money for
taxes, insurance, fence repairs, etc..
Bays Farm and Fireside. An old
schoolmate called on him one day,
and in one of their chats lie pointed
out to hln how he was losing money
In raising such a poor quality of
hogs. He told him he would not
have a meat animal on his farm that
was not of the best quality. They
looked well and sold well when
young, and Invariably topped the
market when matured. He advised
him to sell off all his scrub stock
and buy three or four first-class
young sows and raise pigs he would
be proud of. He said: "Don't side
line your pigs any more, but make
them a leading product of the highest
quality, arftl they will make you a
greater profit than the best crops of
grain you grow." This farmer dates
the beginning of his prosperity from
the visit of that old schoolmate.
When he obtained fine stock 'he im
mediately set about'providlng it with
the most comfortable quarters and
giving it the best care, and the re
sults can easily be guessed. As I
have said before: Cne who has a
small sum lying idle usually can find
a place on the farm where it can be
employed to good advantage where
It will earn much more than three to
five per cent, interest.'
Poultry Manure Valuable.
One of the best and most avail
able manures Is that which our poul
try supplies. It costs no ready money
and is an article of value to any farm
er who will utilize it. How to save,
mix and Use this manure has been a
study with scores of farmers during
. AND ' Wkk0h
the past few years. In nearly every
farmer's yard there are to be seen
from 100 to 200 fowls, and very
often they have no proper shelter
and the droppings are lost. Often
no thought is given to gathering the
manure for fertilizing purposes, and
in the spring the owner will pay from
$50 to $75 per ton for guano, while
the poultry manure that goes to
waste on his own farm Is almost
equally rich in plant food and even
belter than some brands of so-called
pure guano.
Poultry manure has the most value
when kept In the dry; Its value Is
also largely dependent on the kind
of food which the fowls consumed
while making the deposit. As a rule,
the poultry are given richer food
than any other farm stock. Wheat,
rye, corn, also scraps from the table
add to their rations, hence their drop
pings must possess considerable fer
tilizing value.
The poultry should be kept to
gether as much 83 possible. The
floor should be kept dry and covered
weekly with ashes. Regularly every
week It should be removed and stored
In a dry place, shoveled over and
enough absorbent added to keep- it
from heating. It is astonishing now
much accumulates. If it is to be
drilled, the manure should be sifted,
otherwise it may be applied directly
from the wagon. If farmers who
keep poultry and let the manure go
to waste would try this plan they
would save enough the first year in
fertilizer .bills to build a poultry
house and fence a yard for their
private fertilizer factory.
Pniry Cleanliness.
It is gratifying to notice that some
dairymen wash tho udders and teats
of the cows at every milking time,
wiping with clean towels, avoiding
every chance of filth entering the
milk, but such dairymen get good
prices, ' which are secured by their
reputation for skillful management
of their cows and their products. The
importance of putting upon the mar
ket milk that is clean and of good
quality should be a special effort on
the part of dairymen, for the reason
than the consumer is willing to pay
more for it if convinced of the fact
of the superiority of the product.
Milk passes through so many hands
from the cow to the consumer as to
render the matter of obtaining pure
and clean milk a difficult one. The
dairyman consoles himself with the
fact that he strained the milk before
selling It, but the strainer does not
remove soluble filth. Any substance
that is dissolved by the milk will re
main in the milk.
Dairymen are aware of the fact
that it is not unusual for a cow to
get down on the floor of her stall
to rest, without regard to whether
the floor Is clean or covered with
manure and her udder and teats may
have rested during the night on a
heap of tresh manure. The cow. is
not as clean as the hog, so far as se
lecting a suitable place for resting
is concerned and where the dairyman
himself is careless and does not keep
the stalls clean, as well as brush the
cows and wash the teats and udders,
it is almost impossible to have clean
milk. That cleanliness adds to the
profits has been demonstrated by
many leading dairymen, who find it
profitable to sell only the best and
cleanest milk they can offer, the best
price being secured when the fanner
can sell his product himself or when
the dealer handles milk only from
well regulated farms. The Epito

Farm Notes.
What do you think of the high
class, high-priced thoroughbreds thai
follow the fairs like the lawyers used
to follow the courts? Fine, surely;
but it is the high-class grades that
fill the butchers' stalls.
Clover bloat or hoven Is more com
mon among cattle in wet seasoni
than in dryi The cow that has had
some dry hay and salt immediately
before being turned on the clovei
is not likely to have bloat.
The orchard is a good place tc
feed hogs In. Tho hogs may get an
extra mouthful that is clear gain,
and they will prepare for the trees
many a good meal for next spring
and summer.
Don't let the months pass without
a thorough cleaning up of the stables,
barn and barnyard. Every shovel

get It. to the right place garden,
