How to Raise Value of Market Eggs Give the hens clean nests and plenty of them. Gather eggs twice dally during warm weather and daily during other sea sons. * Handle eggs Just as little as possi ble. Every time they are handled they deteriorate. Market eggs of the correct size, 24 to 28 ounces per dozen. Overly large or very small eggs should be culled out. Glean eggs only •will bring best prices. Huve clean nests and clean houses. Never wush the eggs as it spoils the bloom and spoils the keep ing quality. The last thing n hen does before laying an egg is to deposit a lluid about it which seals it, us it were, and acts as a protection. Produce infertile eggs. They stand shipment better than fertile eggs; they do not develop germs, withstand the heat, cost less to produce, and seldom decay from any trouble in the interior of the egg. Kill, sell or confine the mature male birds ns soon ns the hatching season is over. Keep the eggs In a cool place. A dry, cool room, or a dry, cool basement or cellar, will prevent shrinkage, mold and chick development. Don’t let eggs come In contact with bad odors such ns puints, kerosene, cabbage or decaying vegetables or meat. Held eggs deteriorate. They shrink Ignoring Each Other’s Faults Brings Happy Wedded Life What! Would you that we re-embrace— We two once more? Are these your tears that wet my face Juat aa before? It does not augur well for fu ture happiness for a bride or groom to commence finding fault with each other ere the honey moon has barely waned. Marringe is always an eye opener to the most romantic, deluded pair. It Is wisdom for both to hold the tongue concern ing what they have found out about each other. If the wife likes to set up in to the wee sma’ hours reading novels n habit the husband never dreamed she pos sessed—he will not gain in her opinion or affections by railing crossly at her. The memory of an unkind word can last for years. Wise is the man who would calmly remark: “When you have finished reading, be sure you turn the light quite out und see that the door is locked,” then turn his back and drift peacefully out into the land of dreams. Wlfey would not be half The Plaited Skirt. Plaited skirts often give trou ble with the back closing. To $ keep it from parting, do not open it In the center back seam if you have an Inverted or box plait, but have the skirt ready for the band, all seams stitched, and pin the plaits In carefully. Then slush down on the right in side crease of the center plait. This makes u closing that will not part, and needs about half the number of hooks and eyes. Allow the hand long enough to reach across to the slashed side. Plaits that swing out of place can be stitched to position at the extreme edge on the under side. This Is a good method for all cotton and other washable skirts. _ Race Origins. Herbert Bruce llnnnny, an English man, has written a book on “European and other Race Origins,” in which, taking various peoples buck to their earliest ancestors, he sets forth that the Prussians are the descendants of the Ishmjielltes, the Dutch uiul Hes sians of the Htttites, the French of the Canuunltes, the Slavs of the Modes, the non-Prusslntis and non-Hessian Germans of the Persians, and the Eng lish of the house of Judah. He Is quite certuin thut the English, not withstanding their alleged descent from the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes, tire not Teutons, but hark hack to the Hebrew race. It will be re called that a theory like unto this was advanced by a Lieutenant Totten, who proved to Ids own satisfaction that the people of England and most of the people of America were of Saxon ori gin mid that tin* word Saxons was Itself a corrupt lon of “IsuclisolillM.” that Is. sons of Isaac, the son of Abra ham.--India tinpolls News.

Market the eggs twice a week in hot weather. Keep one variety of poultry and pro duce eggs of one color. Market your eggs in clean, 30-dozen cases, or In cartons holding one dozen eggs, depending upon the demand. Don’t expose eggs to flies und dust and dirt and thus spoil their appear ance. Confine broody hens or remove them at once to the hatching department. Never expose market eggs to the di rect rays of the sun, to extreme heat or to rain. Keep the poultry houses free from vermin, clean and sanitary. Feed wholesome food and provide pure water in clean vessels. Sell your eggs only to buyers who buy 1 oss-off and who are willing to pay you for quality. How to Keep Bread Fresh. Bread may be kept a long time in a suitable oxygen-free atmosphere. In a recent American Chemical society paper, Arnold Wahl pointed out that as the bread cools, the carbon dioxide in its pores is condensed and dissolved in the free water of the bread, and the resulting vacuum causes an absorp tion of gases from the atmosphere. Cooled in ordinary air, oxidation of the protein by the absorbed gas renders the bread stale in a few hours. Mr. Wahl has found preferable an atmos phere of carbon dioxide freshly pro duced by fermentation, and when cooled in this the bread is so modified as to remain fresh several weeks. By LAURA JEAN LIBBEY. so apt to turn the pages over tanta llzingly until broad daylight. If a wife discovers her bridegroom spends half of his salary in cigars and treating friends —is actually a spendthrift, a fact she never knew be fore —instead of raising a great row Dver the missing sum from his week ly pay envelope, she should by wom anly tnct and loving kindness wean him from his fault by degrees with out giving him so much ns a hint that she had discovered his weakness and was devoting all her energies to bat tling silently against it. If she de nounced him as a spendthrift, he would lose at once his fear of her finding It out. And so on with the trifling faults of each to the greater ones. The rea son why some married couples cannot agree Is because they find singular pleasure In throwing up to each other the faults they have discovered. Married life, In the majority of cases, consists of keeping tab on each other and keeping to oneself what she or he finds out. Those who adhere to this plan have a fairly happy life of it together. The couples who taunt each other with what they know of each other’s faults or follies wrangle all through their wedded days, having a wretched existence of it. Eve could not keep n secret. She divulged what she had found out. It is natural for her daughters to fol low her example. Then trouble will catch them If they don’t watch out.

The market for things to read, as he remarks, has grown much wider. Tlie schools turn out more readers than ever before; every street car Invites to practice iu reading; every vacant lot bears on its uwful front a child’s first reader, aud on every wayside fence from here to the Pacific is a better first nmder than our grandfathers found in their treasured hornbooks.

BARREL OF APPLES PAID FOR HURLER NOW FAMOUS That It All Connie Mack Got for Stan ley Coveleskie, Star Pitcher of the Cleveland Team. Every once in a while the papers used to print a story about a pitcher who was with the Washington duty, and who, according to the yarn, had once been traded for a hunting dog. Whether the tale was true or not, it made good reading for the fans. But Connie Mack has that beaten. The Washington pitcher never amount- Stanley Coveleskie. eil to anything as a big leaguer. Con nie got u barrel of Oregon apples for one ol the present hurlers * of the country. Anil lie wasn’t even asked if tlie price was satisfactory. Stanley Coveleskie, who has been lin ing great work for Cleveland, got Ills first major league trial with the Ath letics a few years ago. He pitched three or four games, in one of which he shut out tlie Tigers. Connie didn’t think the Hid was quite ready. So he sent him to Portland, Ore., with it proviso that he could be repurchased. This was very necessary, Inasmuch ns the Cleveland club, for several years, bus had first call on all Portland players. While* Coveleskie was with Portland there was some change In tlie organi zation of the club, which involved the making out of new pnpers. The owner ship forgot to protect Mack’s claim to Coveleskie, mid when the deal was completed Cleveland had u grip on him. Mack naturally protested, holding that the player belonged to his club, in which he probubly was right. But lie never got any uctlon. All thut In* diil get was the barrel of Oregon ap ples, sent to him by the club owners, apparently ns u peuce offering. Connie says that a pitcher is u pret ty cheap buy ut the price of u barrel of apples, even if fruit Is away up at this time.

Pardon Board Asks that Alienist Study Mental Condition. Denver—“ Col.” James C. Bulger, who killed Lloyd F. Nlcodemus in the Savoy hotel on May 6, 1914, and has been tried twice, sentenced to die once and had execution of that sen tence delayed by the Supreme Court several times, for one legal reason and another, is to have another chance for his life. The Board of Pardons, after hear ing arguments of Bulger’s counsel for a commutation of sentence on the ground that Bulgor Is now suffering from paranoia, decided that the gov ernor should appoint a special alien ist to “study Bulger’s mental condi tion” and report to the board later. And the board further decided that, pending this report, execution of the sentence of death on Bulgar shall be postponed and no further steps will be taken by the board In the matter and no additional arguments heard until this report of the special alien ist is received by the governor and communicated to the board. Eleven other cases were heard by the board. Commutation of sentenoe was denied In eight of them and granted in one, while the hearing of the other two cases was continued until the next meeting of the board, which probably will be in November. Those denied commutations, and the charges upon which they were convicted were John Cox, three mur der charges; Mike Svilar, murder; Elberto Trljo, murder; Frank Butts, murder; Luther W. Lee, forgery; Jose Luchuga, statutory offense; Harry Newell, robbery with a gun, and A. Sorbin, burglary and larceny. Thomas Clark, who was sentenced to serve from four to seven years for cattle stealing, was given his free dom. He had only a few monthß to serve. The case of Frank Goodrich, charged with a minor offense, was continued, as was also the case of Gerltt Van ,Wyck, accused of murder. Van Wyck’s case has attracted ■ wide-spread attention. He was sen tenced to life Imprisonment In 190 G for the murder of his sister-in-law, Miss Gerrltje llaast. He had two trials. In the first he and his wife were found guilty jointly, but In the second trial his wife was acquitted. Epidemic Alarms Guardsmen. Military authorities at the state mobilization grounds are alarmed by an epidemic of glanders among the cavalry horses. All mounted drill has been suspended through fear that the disease might spread through the camp and that the soldiers might be come infected. Eight horses and one mule have been shot, and rigid exam ination by guard officers and state veterinarians is being made of all other horses on the grounds. The disease was first observed at the rifle range about two weeks ago. Stoves and Overcoats Distributed. Preparations for the winter were begun last week at the state mobil ization grounds at Golden. Many of the guardsmen had complained of the cold In the mornings and evenings and had not been provided with sweaters or overcoats. Many, however, were given both sweaters and overcoats, and those who were not so equipped will be taken care of within a few days. Nearly 300 camp stoves, one i'or each tent, were distributed among the various units. To Inspect Railroad Signals. Through the efforts of the Slate Public Utilities Commission the Den ver and Bio Grande railroad haß boon induced to appoint u signal super visor whose duty it is to inspect warn ing signals, to see they are In work ing order and In good repair.

DIDN’T WANT WARRANT Wild Trip Proves Too Much for Man’s Resisting Powers and He Meekly Surrenders—Charged With Nonsupport. Chicago.—John Peterson, 9534 Went worth avenue, is locked up at the Har rison police station on a charge of non support, preferred by his wife, Helmu Peterson. Thut is all there is to that story. If you want to know how John got there, read on. It was near the noon hour yesterday and the bar in the Postal cafe was well lined with board of trade and rullroud men. The top of the bar was coiufor tably decoruted with silver and pa per currency, as well as bourbons, rickeys and other reju vena tors. Suddenly the Van Buren street door flew open and a sturdy Swede of about fifty years came sailing in. 1 lunging on to his coattails was n woman of about the same age. They were the Petersons. As John sailed and Helnm quadroplaned through the hundred feet from the extreme south to the extreme north doors, they did not miss any thing nor anybody. Rejects Cop’s Advice. Arrived In La Salle street, John slowed up and Mrs. Peterson regained her feet. She called a policeman and related the tale of how John had run away and refused to support her. The oflleer suggested she get out a warrant for John's arrest. Mrs. Pete said she’d just take Pete to the station herself. She took a fresh grip of the family eoattails and told him to march on. As they proceeded John probably in dulged in some of the honeyed words that first led Helnm into wedlock 30 years ago. At nil events, by the time they reached Harrison and Clurk streets her grip on the coattails loos ened. John, feeling the unexpected slack, sprinted. Helmu, nit hough a belated starter, was game and sprinted also. East on Harrison street they raced, Helma Marched Him to the Station.

Into this serene and unruflled at mosphere hurst John and Helma. Ta bles were overturned, chairs were brok en, the "suds" were spilt, and the “bos" trampled. John Surrenders. Tin* passage proved too much for John's resisting powers and he surren dered meekly. Then Helma triumph antly marched him to the station, where she lodged her complaint of non support against him. When asked to sign tin* complaint Mrs. Peterson confessed some doubt as whut name she should use. "When I take him for my man," she she said, “he ban Mr. Swanson. Now fullers call him Mr. Peterson.

The war department appointed s shoe commission in 1912 to design a model embodying the best points of all the army shoes, surpassing them, If possible. The shoe which was adopted was of good materials, well mude on a rational Inst designed by the department. The Interior Is per fectly smooth, with heel broad and low and sole moderately thick. The arch Is flexible and without metal shank or other stiffening. Eyelets are used rather thun hooks. The shoe reaches but little above the ankle; It Is wide across the ball of the foot and has s high toe cap. It is confortable, nest looking, light In weight and easily re moved or put on. As soon as the soldiers wear out the shoes of the type which they are now using on the border they will be refit ted with the new type which the gov ernment has ordered, says a writer in the Outlook. The newest shoe Is hob nailed and weighs three pounds seven ounces. It has been adopted for Mexi can service because the present type has not worn well in mountain climb ing and has been readily cut up by the malpals rock in Mexico. The shoe is similar to that in use In the Italian army. Whether this model will be perma nently adopted Is open to considerable doubt. The weight of the shoes and the stiffness of the leather used de tract from the comfort of it. It lias some disadvantages, therefore, but the severe usage In Mexico made it desir able to give this type a thorough try out in regular service. Opportunity. The train was passing through t prohibition state, and the hardware drummer had forgotten to provide himself with a flask. When the train stopped at a little station he got out and asked a native on the depot plat form If there was any place in town where he could get a drink. “You're Just a day too late, stran ger,’’ he replied sadly. “The sheriff raided every place in town laßt night and confiscated all the booze They’re tryln’ the fellers that sold it up to the court lions* right now.” “Lead me to that court house," com manded tin* drummer, pressing a cola Into the native’s hand. “They might want :m expert up there to sample that stuff and tell ’em what It really Is."
