HER FORCIBLE REASONS.
gtisti Vary Ellen EMatalde and the mar-
riage .gm:onion.
'G,le41I•ire tlol,,idaY an' me's been Ingag-
t)fl t' be married off an' on fer mos' two
ears, an' 'we don't seers t' be no nearer
tit' weddin'-day 'n we was at first.
when he started t' perpose ter me In ,.
Brooklyn trolley -oar art' th' car gave
a Well an; sent him bumpin' his nose
;Whist MY bead, an' that made him so
rad't he didn't continyer th' subjict
fer a week.
We can't git married on nothin',
that's dead sure. Not In New York.
George's brother an' sister-In-lawr
got married that way over to Jersey
City, an' when she first come to New
'York she uster throw her sweepin's out
o' the winder; an's it's jest nip -an -tuck
with 'em right long—acratchln' ter
;run.
I've got three hundred dollars cumin'
t' me when I git of age, an' some quilts
an' pillers my gran'mother left me up
in Sullivan County; but George hadn't
got nothln' but an accordion an' a kit
o' tooth—an' one er th' other o' them's
in pawn most of the time.
George can't stan' flats, an' he's got
"workin'-man's country home on th'
li staiment plan" on th' brain; an' h'-
says ter me, "Mary Ellen, it' you think
't I'd ask my wife ter live in a sta-
tionary cirkis wagon an' hang her
eiashtn' out on th' tent -pole fer th'
neighbors t' count how many shirts I
wt-ar a week, an' buy her coal by th'
quart, an' fight th' janitor at long
range throi>g, an Inch bore tube, why
t In yer man. That'
ye're mist
right!"
An' I 14ays ter him, "Well, if You
think 't I'm goin' inter the suburbs, a-
v✓adin' in dust an' snow an' mud th'
year roun', an' split my own kindlin,
an' git blowed up with kerrysene, an'
block out my destiny accordin' to a
railroad timetable, why you're mia-
tt ken in your flansee. See?"
An' then we didn't speak fer a week.

An Example.
"Tommy," said the boy's father, "I
am afraid you and Willie Smlfkins
have been having a fight."
"Yes, sir. He called me names."
"My son, I am ashamed of you. You
should learn patience. Look at the
forbearance which great men have
shown under personal abuse and the
strongest provocation to give way to
wrath. Look at—well, look at Corbett
and Fitzsimmons."—Washington Star.
A Conclusive Argument.
"Hush, there are visitors in the draw-
ing room."
"How do you know?"
"Listen, papa is saying 'My dear' to
mamma."
A Pointed Jolco.
The punctuality which reigned over
the domestic regulations of Dr. Chal-
mers was something not a little incon-
venient to his guests. His aunt, while
Lying in the house, appeared one morn-
ing too late for breakfast, and well
krowing what awaited her if she did
not "take the first word o' tlytln'," thus
diverted the expected storm:
•"Oh, Dr. Chalmers!" she exclaimed,
as she entered the room, "I had such
a dream last night—I dreamt wou were
dead."
"Indeed, aunt," said the Doctor, quite
Ir.terested by an announcement which
tcre so directly upon his own future
history.
"And I dreamt," she continued, "that
the funeral day was named, and the
ftneral hour was fixed and the funeral
cards were written, and that the day
came and the folks came, and the hour
came, but what do you think har'pen-
?? Why, the clock had scarce done
ping 12, which was the hour nam-
e In the cards, when a loud knocking
was heard within the coffin, and a
voice, peremptory and ill -pleased, came
cut of it, saying, 'Twelve's chappit,
and ye're not hifttn'.' "
The Doctor was too fond of jokes not
to enjoy this one, and, in the hearty
laugh which followed. the ingenious
culprit escaped.—Pearson's Weekly.

FEED RACK FOR SHEEP.
A Convenient Devloe That Duns Away
With Many Dlsadvautagea.
The usual method of feedlt,g sheep
has a number of disadvantages. When
fed from the floor adjacent to their
pen, the lambs are quite sure to be
found all over the hay and grain, and
a-aktng themselvks generally at home
In the uttermost parts of the barn. The
sheep, moreover, wear off the wool
from their necks and disfigure them-
selves when feeding through' opening
'he side of the pen. Where the fodder
is thrown down from the floor above
tht pen an arrangement such as is
ehc,wn In the illustration may be found
strvlceable. L. is a hanging rack
with elate all around It, and made nar-
n w at the bottom so that the flock
can reach even the last spear of hay.
There is more than sentiment in the
saying of Sir Walter Raleigh to his ex-
ecutioner, "What matters it about
the head if the heart is right?" The
trouble is that in this high pressure age
heart is seldom kept right. By care-
ful estimate it is calculated that one
weak or diseased heart. Think for a
moment the important work that the
persons out of every four or five hits a
heart; has to perforin, and it is not dif-
ficult to realize what a derangement
even to a slight Octant, of this organ
means. Dr. Agnew's cure for the heart
is a cult, ter heart troubles, and noth-
ing ergot is a mistake to suppose
that,rettiedtes that. are given out a
panaceas for. all the ills that flesh is
heir to eiin effectively cure heart dis-
• ease.• Within 80 minutes after taking
the first dose of Dr. Agnew's Cure for
the heart relief is secured, and event-
ually complete restoration is effected.
1IASi;INI; F'F'Ftl) 11 A(K.
There will be no crowding with such
an arrangement. The feed will not be
scaled, and the peat can be kept closest
so that the lambs cannot escape from
it. Even when the fodder is not thrown
down from the floor above such a rack
may be. hunt; near the side of the pen,
and the hay thrown over into It from
the feeding floor, giving much more
feeding space to the flock than would a
rack nailed against the side of the pen.
Tr.•asoo in the .1 .r.ey Camp.
The Swiss and Normandy cattle 're-
cently imported by Mr. Havemeyer of
New York, for the avowed pur ems of
crossing on his Jersey herd to improve
the milking qualities and their consti
tution, are giving our Jersey friends
much concern. They seem to regard
this action on the part of Mr. Have-
meyer as rank treason, especially his
idea of combining milk and beef. Mr.
T. L. Haecker, writing In Hoard's
Dairyman, proves to his own satisfac-
tion that it can't be done. He says;
Much is claimed for these cattle,
that they are great milkers, good beef
cattle, good work cattle, and above all
that they have strong constitutions.
People will forget that it requires food
to accomplish any one of these things,
That is, if a cow converts her feed
Into flesh, she does it at the expense
of her rnilk flow.
It is certainly true that a giverelreelan-
tlty of feed cannot be used to make
milk, and at the same time be stored
in the system as fat or flesh; and I
never heard of any one who contended
that it could. But what Is to prevent
the food being used by the same ani-
mal for making milk at one time and
flesh at another? This may be con-
trary to Mr. Haecker's notions of the
eternal fitness of things; but that It
fs so used by all breeds to some ek-
tent, and by some breeds to a very
marked extent, is a fact; and facts are
very stubborn things. Jersey 'breed-
ers of Mr. Haecker's build may not
like It; but what are they going to do
about it?

A Dakota Shepluertl„an.
It Is surprising to see how many wo-
men all over the Dakotas, take an in-
terest in and thoroughly understand
the management of sheep.
Not long ago we stopped at a promi-
nent South Dakota shepherd's for din-
ner, and was surprised to find that his
wife and daughter knew much more
about the flock, the lambs, their moth-
ers and their history and management
than their widely -known father.
At noon the daughter and only child,
came trooping In with four or five
hundred sheep In the state, with a
good strong Iamb alongside of nearly
every ewe. The introduction did not
jar her a bit, and springing llghtty off
hr horse she skillfully yarded the
sheep, pointed out to the writer all the
more noted animals in the flock, com-
mended some things he hart written,
and criticised others. Then showed us
one of the prettiest pet lambs we ever
saw. This lamb, she said, had iota
of pretty little ways which were "so
cute." As we went up to the house
the Iamb followed us to the "best
room" door, and seeing it standing
there with Its feet on the sill loon.ng
in "so cute," its mistress dropped ?town
to the organ and played and sang
"Our laby Beats Them All" as few
city girls could render it.
Good trend..
Bulletin 30 of the New Hampshire
Station is devoted to "An Experiment
in Road Making." It finds four finedr-
tent points to be considered in road
making—grade, drainage, foundation,
and surfacing. These are Important,
In the order named. In Eurore, it Is
stated that no expense is spared, even
among mountains, to reduce the graae
to at least one -twentieth, or one foot
rise in twenty. This it is thought 1s
not practicable here at present, In all
cases; but 1t should be the aim, a.nd
ultimately the end. A c;fain la only
as strong as its weakest link; and a
load on any road is limited to what
can be drawn up the steepest hill, or
over the worst place.
The need of a dry bottom for a dur-
able road Is recognized by all. If the
land cannot be drained the road bed
should be, must be, elevated enough to
keep it dry.
In this immediate section, for ordin-
ary roads, a stone foundation is not
necessary. The soil, if dry, is Solid
enough to support the road bed. Where
a foundation of stone is used it should
be laid so as to prevent 'water aceum-
muleting or standing on it. '
The surface coat should be fins, or
rolled down. If it is ,composed or
broken lime stone, or lime !stone gravel
It elsould contain a .conetderable per-
centage of nand, to make it pack welt
and render It hand. ..
