Yet, in spite of all the warnings given, there are always people so desirous of getting something for nothing that they era ready. to risk their money with these tricksters. *** * It is said that all our dreams are caused hyaomeactuai occurrences in our lives. I f so, the following dream was fully justified. A matt dreamed that he had died and was applying tor admission into the pearly gates. Bt. Peter, as usual, was on guard, and to him he presented his credentials. First,.he of course, gave him his church certificate, which showed that for forty years he had been a faithful and conscientious member of an or-, thodox church. He had letters of recommendation from noted and pious men ' “down below” declaring that be had lived a moral life, had always lieen honest .with his fellow- men, and had never been guilty of defrauding any one in any way, St. Peter took these papers, looked them over, and declared thut they were ail right and told him to* pass in. He opened the door with a light heart, but was surprised to find the doorway completely blocked with old papers. I t was sofull that neither at top side nor bottom was he able to . squeeze in ,' He called to the custodian of the door, and asked him what this meant. St, Peter looked at him for a minute, and then jukedhiioifhe bad paid his subscription to the home paper. He Was obliged to answer tb it he had not. “ Well, that will keep you from entering, then,” replied the aged saint, and in spite of all his entreaties and assurances that the puper wasn't worth tiie money, that it was nothing but an advertising sheet, and that he hail never subscribed for it* he was compelled to start fora warmer clime* After he had gone, 8fc. Peter took the papers out of the doorway and io and behold it was a complete file of T hk C kdawvimjs IIrR\i,t> for the last fifteen years. A New York judge baa astabliahed a precedent in boy criminal eaam that it would be well for other judges to follow. Two boys were before him for trial on the charge of stealing applet.

There wee a knock on the door and a slight, pale, tall blonde of hurried, ner­ vous manner walked in. She was about twenty and good looking despite her pt’Ior, nnd wae fashionably dressed, in obedience to the queenly motion of Ir­ ma's hand she took * seat, and without any preliminaries rattled out this ais closure: "I don’t know but yau’ll think me silly, Kmc. Irma, for this is a very fool­ ish thing, maybe, but maybe it ain’t; snywsy. I’m afraid Joe don't cere lor me ilka he used to, and 1 want to know - you’ll think I’m a goose now—liov/ to get .him back. Ain't there some pow­ ders or charms or something? Oh, dear, me, I hope yon won’t be offended ana Won’t laugh at me, but I'm so miser­ able.’’ Here she began to sob. "It was mean of me just to caff him Mr. Dalton like a stranger when be was leaving and—and he called me Mlse Thompson, not Jennie any mare, and"-—- When the crying lit was over Irma Said: 'T don’t need to read the cards far you.

There jp but one way for you' to get hiir. back, and that is to make him jealous, Allow him to see you accept attentions front-somebody else. Go aa far in that direction as -you- prudently can.” ' Irma was lazily glancing over the tnon fhg papers .when her eye. felt on the marriage notices. Slie. started, trembled nnd the paper almost dropped from her hands, with a little cry she raised it near her face and read—read twice over—the fallow­ ing; ‘‘Dalton—Thompson.—Yesterday, at the Church of the Nativity, Joseph Dal­ ton and MisSa Jennie Thompson, by the rector, Rev. Loafs Hansbury,’’ Irma fainted, When she. recovered consciousness she was lying on. the divan. Her negro serving woman, looking greatly fright­ ened, was holding smelling salts to her nose, and—yes, there was Joe Dalton giving directions to.- the servants and saying something about going for a doctor. “So you are better now, dear Irma,” said Joe, stooping over her and speak­ ing with all the tenderness of a lover. "How dare you come here and use loving words to me?” she asked "Your place is beside Mrs, Dalton. Go home to iter. Leave the house this instant, sir.” “I must say I can’t understand what ail this Is about,” cried Dalton in as­ tonishment. "What is it, Irma? Tell me what ha* sugared yon?” She tossed the newspaper on the ta­ ble, pointed with trembling finger at the marriage notice and then walked to the door as If to leave the room. She wanted a. good cry, hut could not cry there in hlaprssence. "Why, Irma, dear, thatWCoualn Joe's wedding, What of It?" There waa a ring of sincerity’In the question that- no on* could mistake. She paused, undecided. "And will yon Introduce me to Mr, and Mrs. Dalton?” "To Mr. Dalton, ye*; but yon need no introduction to Mrs, Dalton.

There is too much of a dis­ position to throw around the subject the halo of "the olden golden glory of the days gone by." As a matter of fact a now element baa now to be reckoned with, and the wan who re- fuses to take it Into account is not wise. Cold storage has come to Stay and tho result of its coming has been fo level prices by raising the summer price and lowering the extravagant figures which were formerly obtained In winter. It is practically Impossible for eggs now to reach ruinously low prices In summer because of the con- stant cold storage buying which be­ gins ns soon as they reach twelve cents a dozen, while the unloading of stock which sets in when the price reaches eighteen cents keeps the win­ ter price so low that the winter egg man hardly gets a sufficient advance to pay for his cayenne popper and dlp- lomac.v,1—National Truckman. Poultry Notes. Examine carefully roofs and Win-, flows, and make necessary repairs. Whitewash Irtslde of coops thor­ oughly, adding an ounce of carbolic acid to each pall of wash. Kerosene roosts, upper and under,, sides. Gather road-dust or dry sand; fill dust boxes, and put a layer of sand In the bottom of each nest box. House a quantity of dust or sand for winter, sufficient tO last until spring. This is of far greater Importance than most people have any Idea of. Health, com­ fort and profit are greatly Increased by it.. - ' , - j - If early batched pullets are fully matured, coop them as you intend them, to remain for the winter. It Is not'safe to. move them after they -start laying, as. it will interfere with the egg yield. Weed opt the poor specimens and keep only the hest, both-male and female. If an abundance of good sharp grit be kept constantly with range, of fowl 3 , then many ailments that spring from indigestion would he prevented The Clean Poultry House. Nothing does so much harm and causes such loss as the parasites that abound in many poultry houses. Re­ move all perches and nests and burn the fillings of the nests. Give tho roosts and nests a thorough'good coat­ ing of coal oil, and If desired bum It off. Clean out the hen house, then give It a good coating of whitewash with carbolic add In i t This will make the walls light and destroy pests. The floor and ceiling should be white-washed as well ac tho walls.’ If there are many cracks and crevices in the walls It shoidd be advisable to fumigate the place by burning sulphur. If the walls ftere whitewashed only recently, it might do now to wash the, walls with a strong carbolic wash and then a few days later fumigate the place. When thoroughly clean re­ turn roosts and nests and put new fill­ ing In tho neat boxes. Keep a supply of nice dry earth for a dust batli, and tlie hens will keep themselves pretty, tree of lice during the winter, HOW to Fumigate a Poultry H qum . Remove a lln e s ts , perches, and everything that is portable. Put a pound of sulphur In an lien pan with somo burning coals,In the middle of the house. Then close up the doors, windows, and all other openings, and let them remain so for two or three hours. Afterward paint tho roosts and nest boxes thoroughly with coal tar, and whitewash tho house both in­ side and out With lime. A spraying pump is very useful to get the lime- wash Into the crevices in the roosts and walls, and It la beneficial to add norne carbolic acid to the lime-wash. Once a hous? Is thoroughly freed from vermin It i# easy to keep it so by at­ tending to it regularly and taking tbe precautionary measure of frequent lime-flashing. ObjtCt In Poultry Keeping. Poultry raising llko everything else, nsnst be conducted with an object In view, says the Mirror and Fanner, If one desires to keep hens that will pro­ duce tho largest number of eggs in a year ho must select the breed that is adapted to his conditions and climate, depending upon hardiness rather than prolificacy.' It may not bo profitable to keep tho “best breed” unless it can endure the climate, where the winter season is very cold, for no breed will lay that is unable to bravo tho cold. If eggs arc the main object the poultry- man or farmer must feed with that purpose In view. Everyone who feeds for egg# should keep In view the fact that a laying hen is not intended for tho market, and that making such hens fat Is no part of tho management *t .>rgg production, gait for Poultry# in ju ry breeders differ radically about the effect of salt on poultry, some ascribing it to wonderful proper­ ties for promoting health and vigor, while others hold to the apparently more sensible view that nature has provided all the chlorine and ali the sodium that fowls need In their ordi­ nary diet of insects, grass and grain, The use of salt In food Is an acquired habit, and consequently to us food de­ ficient In salt is insipid; but whole races of people have lived and enjoyed health, vigor and longevity without any addition of salt to their food, OffiSCGATED EGGS- Afiathtr Dae far ths ftraduet of tha Man, W.

Poultry'commission merchants say that one reason why a great many shippers are disappointed in the prices they receive on good pov’i -y is that they persist In shipping s /o k of sixes which are not In demand.

There are at least throe things nec, essary for winter eggs—right kind of fowl, comfortable accommodations and proper food and water- Hens two yeans old the. coming spring, providing they are through moulting by the first of November, are reliable winter layers.

A man need not be very old to re­ member when a 1,400 to T,600 pound horse was a heavy draft horse, or a three-minute trotter a speedy roadster. TImea have changed, however, and the heavy draft horse must weigh 300 to 600 pounds more and the roadster go a good many seconds faster to be classed as good ones of their kind. It takes a better horse to be a good one nowadays than it did ten or twenty or uiirty year* ago. The ideal* of those days will not serve. The breed­ er must aim to get the kind that ranks high to-day, and this is the only kind that Is going to pay for his Oats here­ after. . ' rnwraf (Buff Leghorn*.) R.
