I'm te, melancholy exile, till her grew-some task is done; I am seated in the cowshed other refuge have I none.

Oh. the annual house-cleaning who invented such a scheme? There are soapsuds in the parlor and the hall is full of steam; there are pools of liquid water scattered over all the floors, and the womenfolk are scrubbing all the windows and the doors. When the soapfest isn't going, I've some standing in my home; I'm as bossy and important as a senator of Rome, and the women pay attention to the pregnant things I say, and I seem the fount of wisdom when my larynx is in play. In my little stucco mansion I'm the giver of the laws. I'm expounder of the statutes, just as Colonel Moses was.

But when spring again is with after winter's three-months' souse, and the women folk get busy at 'their cleaning of the house, the legal lord and master, much resemble twenty cents, and this needs no explanation to the mob of married gents. I am banished from the parlor, I am exiled from my den; till they're done with suds and waer I can't use the house again. I am seated in the cowshed, eating cold and clammy beans, and I'm sighing for 1113' slippers and my pij.e and magazines. And the cow is looking at 'me, as she chews the wholesome hay; being she cannot prattle, but her actions seeiii to say, "Oh. such language as you're using every moral critter scorns, and your pyrotc-chnic cusswords give me fantods-in my horns!" Superstitions of Japan In Japan the nursery is still protected from the inroads of measles and other infections by means of an inscription over the nursery door stating with exquisite urbanity "this child is not at home." In the Wellcome Historical Medical Museum, says the London Lancet, a most fascinating exhibition is on view, illustrative of Japanese charms, amulets, votive offerings, and objects of medical interest," among which these nursery notices occupy an important place.

Akin to these notices are the charms embodied as toys. A yellow tiger with. a. wagging head is now said to be a toy, but anciently it was a form of exorcism against palsy and numbness of the limbs. -o.

Complicated Injqries Angelina, having said something that ofTended Edwin, was pained at the look of pique' on his face. "Oh, my darling, my darling!" she cried. "I have hurt "No, my dearest," he replied gravely. "The hurt I feel is due to the fact that I know it hurts you to feel that you hurt me!" "Ah, no! Do not let that hurt you for an instant. My hurt is because I know it hurts you to feel that I have hurt myself by hurting; you." "No, iny precious! My hurt is oecause you are hurt over feeling that I am hurt, because you feel that you have hurt me, and are therefore hurt yourself, and to Cooly Answered The manager of a large engineering works was telephoning to a sub-contractor who had always resented the manager's arrogance.

"I say, Bowles!" began the manager. you aware that we want those tubes this vear, not next?" "Yes, sir." "Well, tnen, rouse up that antiquated establishment of yours, and get at them as if you meant business." "We'll try, sir." "There's no trying about it! When will they be read?" "They're ready now, sir." ''You idiot, why didn't you say "You never asked, sir!" The campaign for recuits for the Army, Navy and Marine Corps is now in full swing. The declaration of war has been the great stimulus. Tents are located in various sections of the city where men may enroll. The above picture is typical of the many improvised recruiting stations.

PEANUT ACREAGE FOR YEflB LOWER WILD GAME IS NOW BECOMING PLENTIFUL Conservation Society Reports Breeders Are Renewing Supply of Birds The raising of "wild game" is a comparatively new industry in this country, but has been making remarkable strides in the past twelve months, according to the report of the Game Conservation Society, which recently held its annual meeting in Xew York. The society's membership includes many breeders who have established game farms for the purpose of renewing the country's supply of game fowl for table consumption. This supply, according to members of the society, was rapidly diminishing until a year or so ago, and many of the most delectable forms of wild food that had formerly been plentiful in this country had become rare dishes even for epicures. Wild ducks and pheasants are among the varieties of fowl that are being raised by the breeders at the present time, and according to the society's report, the former have become so plentiful through this method in some States that they have appeared on the market at prices which place wild duck within the range of the public generally instead of the rich alone. In Minnesota, the report states, wild duck sold at $1 each this year.

It is suggested in the report that, at the present rate, wild duck and other formerly rare fowl may actually tend to lower the cost of the more commonplace meats of daily eon-sumption. "Thirty-five States now have daws permitting the breeding and sale of all or certain species of game, and many game farms have been started in other States in anticipation of laws encouraging the industry," the annual report says. "Reports coming to the society indicate that all of the States and some of the Provinces of Canada soon will permit and encourage game breeding. "Reports coming to our game census indicate that our members have over a million game birds there were fewer than 100,000 reported last year and that and Leo and and and Morris, S.th ana Guver ave.

Solemn requiem "0 SOUL OF ITALY D'Annunzio, Famous Poet, Eloquently Praises Entry Into War Capitol at. Rome, Through Him, Salutes the Capitol at. Washington In Liberty's Name FwCXME, April 7. Few persons in Italy "Were moved more deeply by the entrance of America into the war than Gabriele d'Annunzio, the poet, who is now serving as a captain in the aviation corps. His estimate of significance of the event is expressed in the following mes sage which he wrote to the people of America: ''For the soul of Italy today the capitol at YVasbintrton has become a beacon light.

A Roman garland wreathes the bust dedicated to the hero whom free men call the jrorious knicht of humanity. It is a pariand ptire as the branch, of lilac offered by a poet on the bier of Lincoln. It Is as sacred as the ever-flowering' bough 'with heart-shaped leaves of rich It seems as though in this April of passion and tempest there re-echoes the cry of that April, tense with joy and anguish, 'O Captain! My Captain," rise Tip; Hear the bells. Rise up, for your flag is Spiritual Token of Success "Xow, the group of stars on the ban-e of t'he great republic ha3 become a constellation of the spring, like the "Pleiades; a propitious sign to sailors, armed and unarmed alike; a spiritual token for all nations fighting a right-eons war. I give th; salute of Italy, of the Roman capitol to the capitol at Washington; a salute to the people of the union who now confirm and seal the pledge that liberty shall be preserved.

"To Italy alone of the Allied nations the possibility was open of avoiding war and remaining a passive spectator. Italy took vm arms giadly, less for the recouquest of her heritage than for the salvation of nil the things which symbolize the grandeur of freedom. She armed herself as todav the American Nation is arming herself, for the sake of an ideal. The spontaneous act con-j animated by the people of Washing ton is a glorious sacrifice on behalf of the hopes of all mankind. "America hss achieved a new birth.

Ehe has molded for herself a nevr heart. This is the miracle wrought by a righteous war, the miracle that unexpectedly today we of Italy see performed beyond an ocean dishonored by assassins and thieves. war is not destructive. It is creative. With all manner of atrocities, ail manner of shameful acts, the barbarian has striven to destroy the idea which, until this struggle began, man had of man.

The barbarian multiplied on the innocent infamous outrages inspired by hate jalternrting senile imprudence and brutal stupidity. Work of Barbarians "The barbarian ground heroism to earth, cast do-n the airy cathedrals where congregated the aspirations of the eternal soul, burned the scats of wisdom decked with the flowers of all the arts; distorted the lineaments of Chriit, tore off the garments of the Virgin. "Xow once again we begin to have hope of the nobility of man. Love's face is radiant, though its eyes are moist with tearSj for never was love so much beloved. Love overflows on all the vcorld like a bro in May.

Our hearts are not large enough to gather it and to hold it. The people of Lincoln springing to their feet to defend the eternal spirit of man, today increase immeasurably this sum of love opposed to furv. the fury of the barbarian. rt 'Ah. liberty.

Let others despair of the. I will never despair of thee, once cried your rugged poet. "In this hope your nation arises todav. in the north, south, east, west, to offer vour strength, proclaiming our cause to be the noblest cause for which men have ever fought. You were an enormous and obtuse mass of riches and power: now you are transfisrured into ardent, active spirituality.

The roll of your drums drowns out the last wail of cowardice. "April 15 is th anniversary of Lincoln's death. From his sepulchre there issue again the noble works which fell from his lips at Gettyburg, on soil sanctified by the blood of brave men. Ail your States, north, south, east, west, hear them. I say to you that "this Nation, under God, shall have a new birth cf freedom.

"GABRIELE irAXXUXZIO. SELF-COCKING UMBRELLAS Man Who Owned One Tells What They Are Like "Ttainstorms having interfered with battles," remarks a contemporary philosopher, "the next brilliant invention will be a self-cocking umbrella." Such is the fame of some of the brilliant inventions. They strike upon a etartled world, have their little heyday of novelty and popularity, and are quickly forgotten by the nest generation. Self-cocking umbrellas were quite a fad not so many years ago. Perhaps they are still on the market, but we do not remember to have seen one for eight or ten years.

We ourselt had one of the things in the day of them, and were rather proud of it. It vra3 a great device for a one-armed man or for a commuter with one arm full of parcels. Pressing a spring in the handle with a thumb or one finger would raise the umbrella with a precipitate violence that usually startled bystanders and made the thing an object of terror to any dog, cat or horse that 'might be within a radius of a dozen feet. The chief trouble with this patent umbrella was that, once open, it in clined to so. Closing it was a job that required both hands and considerable effort, owina to the stubborn resistance of the self-raising motive force.

Nonchalantly springing ours open one dav as we were emerging from a door way, we came within a half-inch of demolishing an eye for a respectable old lady, and oo we gave up carrying it, as it seemed to belong in the class of dangerous weapons. Providence Journal. 'Pecky" Cypress Used for Building Trim "Pecky" cypress is a grade of cypress lumber in which the wood looks decayed, because of numerous holes filled with a brown powder, but its appearance is highly deceptive, for it is in reality one of the most decay-resisting woods known in this country. After it is once cut from the tree it does not change in character, and as it resists all kinds of atmospheric and soil changes, it is much used in the South foT planking, foundation timbers, fencing, railroad ties, farm buildings, preen houses, and cold frames. Xow the architects of the North are beginning to discover its possibilities for artistic use as exterior and interior trim.

Several rooms in one of the largest residences in Michigan have recently bfen finished in peck cypress with remifrkable effect, according to the Popular Mechanics Magazine. The pecky wood appears to be fill of holes, varying in width from oneiuarter to three-quarters of an inch, these holes being found in the heart wood of the tree only, and then not until the trees have reached an age of 125 years or thereabout.

Industrial Wire At Mutul Works. lS High BOSTON LIGHT 200 YEARS OLD "Kindled" In 1716, it Is Oldest on the North Atlantic Coast The fact that the Boston Light closed 200 years of active life, in itself not aj matter of great moment, but the fact that it is the oldest lighthouse in his country is of decided interest, remarks The San Francisco Argonaut.

It is one of the most important lighthouse stations on the Xorth Atlantic coast. On the evening of Friday, September 14, 1716, the light was the first to use the expression of the chronicler of the day. For some years the shipowners and prominent merchants of Boston agitated the project of establishing a lighthouse at the entrance of the harbor. The Great and General Court took the matter up on petition of John George and others. The town officials of Boston also considered the proposition and urged the Colonial authorities to make an appropriation to build a suitable light.

At last favorable action was taken by the authorities and the building of the light on the outer Brewster began. When the light was ready to put into commission George Worthylake was appointed keeper. He and his wife and daughter were drowned two years later and were buried in Copps Hill Burying Ground, Boston. Benjamin Franklin a ballad on the drowning of the family. The salarv of the first keepers of the light was $2u0 a year.

On the death of Worthylakef Captain John Hayes, a well known shipmaster, was appointed. The early lightkeeper had many other duties to perform besides looking after the light. He had to act 'as pilot for vessels and discharge the duties of health officer of the port. In the case of a vessel being in distress it was his duty to go to its rescue. In 1720 the lighthouse was burned and rebuilt.

Auin in 1751, the lighthouse and other buildings were burned and were again rebuilt. Robert Ball, the keeper who succeeded Captain Hayes, remained until after the British fleet sailed from Boston to Halifax during the Revolutionary War. According to the stories at that time, Ball sailed away with the fleet and never returned. The British wantonly destroyed harbor property, including the Light, before they sailed away. Thus it is that the island on which Boston Light stands is the last soil in the State occupied by British armed forces.

The destruction of the light was a great loss to mariners, and the merchants and sbippin" interests induced Governor John Hancock to send a special message to the Massachusetts Legislature recommending an appropriation for the rebuilding of the light. With commendable promptitude the Legislature complied with the request of Governor Hancock, and plans were made for one of the finest and largest lie-hts on the coast. This was in 1780. The structure was of stone. Oil lamps fur nished the light.

The island and the light' were formally ceded to the United States Government in 1790. It has been improved and enlarged from time to time and the accommodations for the keepers and their families are all that could be desired. Its light may be seen on clear nights for over twenty miles at eea Roaring Mountain Torrent Graveyard of Motor Cars Xo story in contemporary history is more replete with rramatic incidents than that of the passage of King Peter and his countrymen into exile, when Serbia'6 little army gave away before the overwhelming onslaughts of the Germanic hordes. One of the many apecta-cnlar tnis odes that marked this tragic flight across the mountains is narrated by a correspondent who reacnea tne scene of its enactment, in company with the Bulgarian forces, a fortnight later. It is the account of the last ot the Serbian war autoe; a description of their abandonment and destruction at the end of a road where many refugees began their exhausting climb along the hazardous trails leading into Albania.

Leaving the last city in the line of icvicai, umiiiifc; Lais, iiiuvuomci Li and ambulances were driven along a road, that, hugs the brink of a precipice as it follows the course of a roaring torrent through the mountain recesses. The opposite side of this road is sealed by almost perpendicular walls of rock. For several miles it proceeds thus, a splendid, picturesque highway. Then abruptly it stops at the foot of a narrow, eteep path that wends up the cliff. When the motor cars reached the end of this road they were no longer of use to the Serbs.

Obviously there was but one thing to be done, and that was to destroy the machines so that they would not fall into the hands of the "enemy. So, one by one, their wheels spinning and their unbridled engines roaring as they leaped through the air, the cars were shot over the edge of the rocky bank to dash themselves against the bowlders far below. In all some 800 vehicles made this death plunge, Popular Mechanics Magazine. Feeder for Motherless Litter of Pigs The rather difficult problem of feeding a litter of little pigs whose mother has died has been largely solved by an Oregon man who has devised an ingenious feeder consisting, of a strong wooden rack which holds nine long-neck bottles in a row a few inches above the ground, with the mouth of each pointing downward at a slight angle. Each bottle is provided with a substantial rubber nipple held eecurely in place by a clamp so that a too eager little pig cannot pull it off.

When the bottles are to be filled they are set upright by turning the rack over on ita side. Popular Mechanics Magazine. If "This world would be a pleasanter place if there were not so many fools in "Yes: but it would be mora difficult to Slight and Decrease in Both Virginia Spanish Varieties Quality Above Average There is nn apparent reduction of acreage in Virginia devoted to Virginia peanuts of about two per cent, accord ing to the 1916 annual estimate of the crop prepared for the Virginian-Pilot by Holmes Dawson. A slight decrease in the acreage devoted to Spanish pea nuts is also noted. The report, which was delayed this vear because harvesting and picking has been unusually slow, is as lollows: In securing our information inquiries were sent to our correspondents throughout the entire peanut belt in Virginia and Xorth Carolina as ell as the States farther South, which produce this crop The acreage reported planted in Vir ginia peanuts is as follows: Twenty-seven per cent, of replies give an average increase of ten per cent.

Forty per cent, give the acreage the same as last year. Thirty-three per cent, give an average decrease oi sixteen per cent. The replies as to acreage in Spanish peanuts show: Nine per cent, give an average in crease of eight per cent. Thirty-seven per cent, give an acreage the same as previous year. Iifty-tour per cent, give an average reduction of eleven per cent.

The reduction in acreage in Spanish peanuts is attributed to the low prices of last season and the increasing production of this variety in the South, notably in Texas. The Texas crop of last year was placed on the market in competition with our local supply and caused a serious decline in prices. As to the quality of the present crop the result of our inquiries show as fol lows: Seventeen per cent, say that the aualitv is very good to fine. Sixty per cent. 6ay that the quality is good.

Twenty-three per cent, say that the quality is lair. It is evident from this that the quality of this season's crop is considerably above the average. Our reports respecting the yield give an average yield of forty bushels of Virginia peanuts and twenty-three of Spanish to the acre. The figures relative to acreage and yield are gathered from results of inquiries solely lrginia and Carolina. Our reports from Tennessee giye the usual production, while Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana and South Carolina say that their acreage was materially reduced.

It seems, however, that Texas went into the cultivation of the Spanish variety on a large scale, the crops there being reported to be about thirty-three and one-third per cent, larger than last year. These figures in their entirety cover the entire supply of peanuts in this country for all purposes, the only pther source being those which are imported, a small quantity having been brought from foreign countries since the war. Farms Give Way to Mines During the past year the promising lead ana zinc-mining town of Picher has risen out of the grain and hay fields, in the northeastern corner of Oklahoma BOmo ten miles nearer the border than Miami. Already the place boasts a railway, a hundred or more one-story frame dwellings and store buildings, a population of about 500 persons, and a hard-surfaced motor road most of the way to Joplin, making communication with that oity a matter of an hour's drive. In addition, there is a large concentrating plant equipped with thoroughly modern machinery Plans are also being made by a Missouri traction company to extend its interurban lines to the point, while a second railroad is said to have purcbased a right of way to Picher.

The community has changed rapidly from a quiet agricultural one to a busy, excited mining district. Where smoke but a short while ago curled from the stacks of threshing engines, drilling rigs probably 150 ot them now pull away constantly. Popular Mechanics Magazine. New Type of Heating Pad There has been recently developed a new form of electric heating pad in which the heating element is wound on India mica with asbestos paper firmly cemented over it, and then incased in a metal covering. It is claimed that there is no stress or strain in the heating element wire, as all pulling, twisting and bending comes on a braided copper cable composed of 72 Xo.

36 gage wires. Another i novel feature is a saiety link placed inside the pad in circuit with the thermostat. This device keeps the circuit closed through a little spring held in place by a fusible aHoy which melts and allows the circuit to open in case the temperature of the pad rises to an unsafe degree. Unnelghborly Little faith was possessed of a most friendly disposition. To satisfy her need for companionship she demanded speech affectionate and often.

One night her brother was studying his arithmetic lesson assiduously. After calling to him several times without receiving a reply, she appealed to her tatner to stir him up. "George is busy," her father said. "I know." replied Faith, "but he miarht at least have said, 'Shut Epsom Salts for Burns A saturated solution of Epsom salts is a good remedy for burns.

Irene Kahler. 1 ji i -o they have several times as many deer and ellt as they had last year. the membership of the society has doubled during the year, and our list shows a very rapid increase. "The breeding of quail and grouse has been started in the Western States, and there is much interest in quail breeding in the Southern States, which are well adapted to the production oi quail in big numbers." Despite the fact that hundreds of thousands of pheasants have been raised by breeders, the report says, the prices have continued to rise because importers have been prevented from bringing these birds from foreign coun tries, lhe report also states that the breeding of game fish is beginning to attract widespread attention and to prove highly profitable.

"It is evident that comparatively little of our vast territory will be needed to make America the biggest game pro ducinsr country in the world, since game overflows from the many breeding grounds and restocks large areas where it has become extinct, the sports' men in all localities find they are bene fited and all prejudice against the industry seems to have dissrppeared. "It is highly important that as game becomes plentiful much of it should be eaten, and the sale and eating ot game must be relied on to keep up the industry, especially when it is undertaken hv popular clubs with Rmall dues, which should sell some of their game and eggs to help pay the cost of production. The Game Conservation Society is especially interested in clubs of this character and is constantly at work to help these or ganize: "A notable example of the benefits of game breeding has occurred on Long Island. The clubs report that mallards are plentnul not only on club grounus, but also on public waters where hundreds of birds have been shot recently. Before game breeding was undertaken the mallard was seldom seen on Long Island.

A single bird in a bag attracted attention. The ornithologists referred to the mallard as an occasional visitant. "Quail shooting has been kept open on the island tor all hands without fear of extinction, and in whole States where there are no quail clubs it has been found necessary toprohibit quail shooting at all times. When there is as much breeding proportionately other parts of the country as there is on Long Island there will never be the necessity for prohibiting all shooting, as is now the case in many of the quail States." Carelessness at Grade Crossings Shown Tn view nf T1 the agitation which has marked the safety-first movement in recent years it is rather surprising, to say the least, to find that oi tnose prisons who pass over grade railroad crossings probably one-half or more, fail to look to the right or left before moving across the tracks. This estimate is based on thn reported findings of in vestigators for the California Railway Commission.

In observing the drivers of 17 000 motor -vehicles it was found that over sixty-nine per cent, looked neither way before crossing railway tracks. Something over two per cent, looked in one direction only, while the remainder, less than 28 per cent, looked both to the. right and left. Of Ooi'O pedestrians forty-nine per cent, looked neither way, and fifteen per cent, looked only one way. It is believed that these figures may be taken as fairly typical of the country as a whole.

They indicate both the menace of the grade crossing and the need of educating both drivers and pedestrians to greater caution. Popular Mechanics Magazine. o. Dear Me "Horrors! While mother was sleeping the baby licked all the paint a tov?" mass (Thurch ot Assumption. 10 A.
