HOSTESS HAD TO OWN UP
Domestic Secret Disclosed When the
Guests Could Not Be Served
With Pie.
She was a woman of resource and
ability and when her husband arrived
for dinner with an unexpected guest
she thought she had devised a way i of concrete, and pyramidal, 1 by 2 feet
' to meet the fact that she had but one on the top, five feet apart on the
piece of pie In the house and bad In- , sides, three feet apart on ends. The
tended her husband should have that. center wall should be continuous, and
She instructed him that when she j may be of rough stone laid up rough

J more than he had eaten and then the I
r pie could be brought to her guest
without his surmising that there was
but one piece in the house.
This mlcbt have worked out all
right If the, pie had not been so ex
ceedingly good and her husband had
not known this because he had It for
dinner the day before.
When the maid cleared away the
dinner dishes the master of the house
said he had no room' for dessert.
The guest said he felt the same way.
Then, when the master thought It was
safe to do so, he changed his mind j
and said after all he guessed he would
take dessert. The pie was brought.
When It was half eaten the guest i
said it looked so good he thought he, :
too, would indulge.
"No, you won't," said the hostess,
and she told the tole of the pie.
Quaint Table Manners.
Jerome S. McWnde, the Duluth mil-
lionalre, talked at a dinner about the
delights of a backwoods vacation. :
"I go to a quaint backwoods village j
every summer," he said, "and number- j
less are the quaint people I meet
there.
"Old Boucher, for instance, the Jan- i
itor of the village church, Is most
amusing with his quaint ways. I had
old Boucher to lunch one day, and ,
the cold lobster was served with a ;
mayonnaise sauce. When my servant i
offered this sauce to Boucher, the old

GOOD ROADS ARE VALUABLE.
German Farmer Give His Views on
Question That Interests Every
Agriculturist.
By HOWARD H. GROSS.)
A sturdy clear-headed German, in
speaking of good roads, said:
"My farm is ten miles from She
boygan; if it was only five miles it
would be worth $10.09 more aa acre.
If I bad a good hard road all the way
I could go to Sheboygan whenever I
wanted to and haul twice as much. So
a good road would be Just as good for
me as If I lived five miles qut with a
bad road. So that's why I go in for
a good road. Sure it will cost money
but so does everything else worth
having."
Bad roads, and the extra cost of do
ing business over them would bank
rupt almost any country except ours
We have the worst roads on earth
and yet we are better able to have
good ones than any other people.
When we wake up and take -hold of
this question at tho right end, T?e will
get results. We need both state and
national aid and to build permanent
roads by bond Issues and let the next
generation help pay the bill. If this
is done we ean have good roads with
very little Increase in taxation.

In the center with the form of hinge

they were of a solid piece. When the

break and fold Into two parts, each
part fitting into the recess along the
side of the stiles and giving the ladder
the appearance of a couple of planks
laid side by side. The back supports
of this ladder and the side pieces con
nectlng them with the stiles are also
Jointed and can be folded into a very

malaria Is caused by a certain typo

sickness would exist.
Home-Made Water Cooler.
A good home-made water cooler
may be tnade as follows: Take a su
gar barrel and put straw In the bot
tom, on this place a large stone Jar
and pack around with straw. On the
cover of the Jar place a. wet cloth and
then cover the barrel. Nice cool wa

Cucumbers for pickles should be

Cut them but never pull them off, as

Why do so few farmers raise
asparagus for family use? It is very

Indefinitely and never falls to bring a

'BONNIE A WISE DOG
INTUITION TELLS HER MAN
WANTED TO WASH HER.
Exciting Day's Work Provided for
Man by Wife and Setter After
the Bath Bonnie Seeks the
Ash Heap.
"What are you going to do, dear?"
the lady asked. The mnn was emerg
ing from the bath room with a towel
and a cako of soap.
I'm going to wash tho dog," said
tho man sturdily. The lady peered ut
him keenly.
"Not with my Boap!" she said. "The
Idea of such a thing. With my gild
rose soap!"
"Well, hang It," observed the man:
"gimme Bonie soap. This was all
there was In the bath room."
"And one of my best towels a new
one!" cried the lady despairingly. The
man threw the towel and soap far
from him.
."Heavens and earth!" he snld; "this
Is a fuss over nothing, sure. Gimme
some soap and a rag a blanket ony
old thing that you can dry a setter dog
with."
' When these things had been
brought him or to be exact, a piece
of worn yellow kitchen soap and a
torn skirt the man went Into the
back yard, calling merrily:
"Here Bonnie! Here Bonnie!" But
Bonnie was wise. Some under-the-skin
intuition told her that the man
desired to wash her, and sho prudent
ly crawled under the house. Tills
made the man Indignant.
1 "Oomo out o' there!" he yelled.
Then he crawled under and emerged
backward, grating his teeth and rub
bing bis spine, like the teeth of a saw,
upon the floor beams. In one hand
he hold tho elastic skin of the dog's
neck and the dog fought bitterly each
step of the way.
Once outsldo the man tied a rope
about the neck of the dog and pro
cured a washtub. It was the one the
washerwoman used on Mondays, but
wits Just as good as any for his pur
poses. He dragged Bonnie to this tub nnd
thrust her forefeet In it, while her
hind feet struggled frantically out
side. When he got tho hind feet In
the forefeet were pawing tho dirt out
side desperately. But Bonnie was at
last wot and soaped. Then the man
stepped back to throw a bucket of
water over her; but Bonnie sl"Hk
herself briskly and in misery an l a
shower bath of soapy water dehied
the man.
"Blame the dog!" he said, rubl lng
his eyes with hands that smelled of
yellow soap and ' had dog hairs on
them.
Then he blindly liberated the 'log
and commanded her to roll upon the
grass.
But Bonnie, refreshed and Joyous,
preferred the ash heap on which a
stovepipe had been newly beaten.
"Do you mean to tell me," said the
lady later, "that you washed that
dogr
"Sure I did," said the man, growing
red; "that's clean dirt It'll shake
off soon as It gets dry."
Some Parsnips.
In a railway carriage the other day
the conversation turned upon garden
ing. "I guess," said the American, "none
of you ever saw such parsnips as I
grew out in the states last year;
why, I had to hire a steam derrick to
get them out of the ground."
"Talking about parsnips," said Per
kins, meekly, "reminds me of some I
once grew in Lancashire to try the
effect of a patent fertilizer my broth
er had Invented. The result was as
tonishing. Those parsnips for size
easily beat all records, and Just how
far tho roots penetrated Into the
earth we could not guess at. But to
our disappointment the plants sud
denly sickened and died."
"I guess that was a tarnation pity,"
said the American, sarcastically.
"What was the matter with 'em?
Outgrew their strength, I suppose."
"Well," said Perkins, calmly, "we
found out afterward It was because
the ends of the roots had been eaten
off by rabbits In Australia." Ideas.

A Bernhardt Trick.
Mme. Sarah Bernhardt, who is sup
posed to be something of an artist as
well as an actress, was recently called
upou in one of. her marvelous -creations
to enact the role of a sculptor,
and to model a certain bust In view of
the audience. This fairly electrified
the critics, but when going Into rhap
sodies over the technical skill in han
dling the clay which Mme. Bernhardt
exhibited they showed that they knew
little of the artistic tricks of actors
and actresses; as a matter of fact, she
does nothing of the kind. The bust
Is modeled and baked, and over It Is
placed damp clay of the same color.
This the talented actress merely pulls
off, exposing the beautifully modeled
head underneath.
Keeping It Dry.
An old woman of a wealthy New
Jersey family was going visiting. The
coachman, who had not been In this
country long, had Just been equipped
with a new uniform and a new silk
hat. Before they had gone far it be
gan to sprinkle, and the old woman
told the coachman to fasten down the
side curtains of the wagonette.
He drove up to a hitching post be
side the road and, dismounting, hung
hia new bat on the post, and began to
fasten the curtains.
The old woman noticed his bare head
and asked him where his hat was.
"Oi took it off me bead, mum, so as
It wouldn't get wet," the coachman re
plied. ,
