A WOMAN WHO SWORE.
And Her Oath Proved of Much Ma
■terial Value to Her Husband. |
A party of married men were talk
ing about their wives, and It Is worthy
of note that every man was glad he
had a wife, and was anxious to tell of
her good points. I
"I never heard my wife swear but
•nee," said one of them when there
teemed to be a lull In the praise meet
Ing. I
All the others looked shocked. If any
of them had ever heard their wives
■wear, they were not telling It, and
they resented the frankness of the one
man who was apparently betraying
too
the
at
to
... .
family secrets. But the man did not
regard the bad Impression he bad ers
ated.
"And that," he continued. In the same
tone, "was away back yonder, thirty
years or more ago, when the oil excite
ment in Pennsylvania agitated the
whole country. I owned a farm up
there that I had taken for à debt of a

thousand dollars, not because it was
worth that much, but- because it was of
all I could get My business was very '

resented the bulk of my capital. I had (
been married five years, and my wife 4y
was the very best Investment I had
ever made. One day I received word
that oil had been struck on the farm
sdjolning mine, and right away I pro- i
ceeded to go crazy, Just as everybody
else did when oil showed up anywhere
In their neighborhood. My wife show- j
sd signs, too, but she kept her wits
about her. Inside of a week I began to
get offers for my farm, and I got era

higher than the one before It. It went

" 'But I'll make a good deal more

of water and let it steep for two hours,
' Then remove the bag and let It drain
\ thoroughly into the kettle. When the
( flaxseed tea is about as warm as fresh

gasoline for each sheep of 60 to 80

Keep More 8toclc,
Not one-half of our farmers keep as
much stock as they should or as they
might keep lf they would make a little
effort. Their pastures are perhap*
stocked up to or a little above the sum
her that can be fed well at that part of
! summer or fall when the pasture Is at
Its poorest, but not half up to the num

Thumps in Young PI*».
Now is the season of the year that the
young pigs begin to get so nice and fat
and lay around the pen with tbeir
mother In the nest until they begin to
get their breath bard and finally their ell
sides begin to heave and thump, and If
you don't watch out they begin to die,
says Whinnery's Swine Advocate. This
disease Is usually the fault of the owner
in allowing the pigs too little exercise,
A sow that Is a good suckter of rich .
milk Is the one that is generally so un
fortunate. The best plan that I ever
have tried was to place one or two pigs
at a time in a pen away from the sow
and let them run around the pen trying
to get out This gives them plenty of
the exercise, and lf repeated often will
have the desired effect. If the case Is
a severe one it Is well at the beginning
of the treatment to give a small dose
of castor oil to the sow or pigs. |
New Churns.
When It becomes necessary to pro
cure a new chum for the dairy, get one
with a marked capacity at least one- )
half larger than the quantity of cïeam
that Is expected to be churned. We
never saw a churn of any pattem that
did not do its work better when from
one-half to two-thirds full than when
tnore was put in It. We have some
prejudice against those chums which
have paddles or other arrangements in-1
side, though the best one we ever used
was built so, and we made good butter
and salted It and worked It In the
chum. But that was before we ever
saw an oscillating churn or swing
chum, and when we saw one of those
we quickly decided that they were on
the right principle, easier to handle,
easier to keep clean and sweet and less
liable to Injure the butter.—American
Cultivator.

Farmers who raise a few hogs to sell
around home'should keep the pig ready
for market until the market is ready
for the pig. Kept In good condition on
green pasture supplemented with a lit
tie com every day, the cost of feeding
for a few weeks longer ls very slight.
Try to so arrange matters as not to be
compelled to sell anything until every
thing ls favorable. There ls profit la
so doing.—Texas Farm and Ranch.

Detective Telle How One of Them Fig
ured In Hio Prisoner's Escape.
"I never had but one prisoner escape
from me," said an old railroad detect
ive to a New Orleans Times-Democrat
reporter, "and that was under very pe
culiar circumstances. In 1882, when
was working for the Atchison, Topeka
aud Santa Fe road, I captured a fellow
named Jim Lake, who was wanted for to
robbing freight cars. I got him near their
Trinidad, Colo., and after securing the and
requisition papers started East with
him for Kansas City. Lake was a lit
tle, consumptive chap, as frail as
woman, and I didn't consider It neces
sary to even put the handcuffs on hint,
With one twist I could have broken
him In two. Besides, I didn't care
cause btm needless humiliation by ex
hibitiug him before the other passe
gers in the role of a prisoner, so we aim
ply sat side by side, like two fellow
tourists, aud nobody lu the cars hud
any Idea he was under arrest.
"Naturally we did a good deal of
talking, and at about dusk of the first
evening out Lake turned the conversa
tion to curious mechanical contrivances
aud described several remarkable ma
chines be had seen. He had been a
skilled engineer earlier in life, and, be
ing a good talker, soon got me deeply
Interested. Among other things lie told
me about an air pump with a singular
ball valve. "The ball lies In a socket,
'and the greater the air pressure behind
It the tighter It stlckB.' To Illustrate,
he twisted an old envelope Into a cona
and dropped a paper wad Into the
mouth. 'Now, when I blow,' he con
tinued, 'you'll see that the wad stays
right where It Is.' Like a fool, I stared
at the thing, end he blew violently Into
the little end! At the same Instant
felt as If a raging furnace had sudden
ly belched Its flames right Into my face.
I couldn't see, I couldn't breathe; for a
moment or two I couldn't even move.
My throat and nostrils were on fire,
and I felt sure my eyes had been burn
ed literally out of their sockets.
"What had happened was simplythls:
The envelope was full of red pepper
and X had received the charge, point
blank, at about a six-inch range. While
I was gasping the scoutltirel ran to the
other end of the car. 'My friend has a
fit!' he shouted; 'I'm going after water! 1
Of course, he Jumped off, and that was
the last of him. He was never caught.
The other day a man tried to sell me a
lawn sprinkler. Tt has a patent ball
valve,' he said. T don't want It,' I re
plied."
