SPEAKER TILCON'C STORY.
Speaker Tileon tells a good story
about a friend of his who has re
cently taken to the raising of poultry,
The price of meal was somewhat high
and the man mixed some sawdust with
the meal with which the chickens were
fed. As the chickens seemed to take
to the diet, he gradually increased the
dose until pure sawdust alone was eat,
on. But the chickens got back with a
vengeance after they grew up. for. so
the story goes. when a recent lot of
eggs were hatched, half of the chicks
were womlpockers.
THE SECRET OF THE NEAT GIRL.
We all have among our acquain-
tances the girl who. without being in
the ’lisiet good-looking. always man-
ages to look‘ neat and well dressed.
Perhaps she has only a small dress
allowance. and whenever you meet her
she looks expert. and attractive. while
other girls with twice the money at
their command too often look shabby
and dowdy.
What is the neat girl's secret?
Nolhing more or less than taking care
of her clothes; she has a place for
everything. and everything is kept In
its place, her ribbons, gloves. hand-
kerchiefs, veils, etc. are not all hud-
died together in one drawer, neither
do they lie about on the tables and
