only to toss on heated pillows while the _

mosquitoes did their worst.

It was 11 o’clock. Long ago the fat
barber and the head waiter had taken
their guitars and cracked voices into

too, went below to his torture. .

The Man put his chair with its back
against the guard-rail. He could see

“Please—please don’t go.” The Man
put his hand on the arm of her chair as
if to detain her. “If you’ll stay, I’ll try
to stifle my grief about the barber.
.Won’t you let me tell you about—about
my brother, for instance?”

The Girl looked away toward the Ken-

“Temptress! is this the way you tcr-

“I’ve been trying for a week not to tell
you about myself. I’ve tried to make

I would be able to smile and say ‘good-

parting would be only the shadow of an

The Girl was not laughing now.

“But—but—why must you forget ?”
She had risen, and the blue eyes were

The prettiest. story of the giving of

a chapter in the life romance of an

of an ex-senator from a state in the mid~

laughed the Girl.

“Yes, I suppose I’m an idiot to even

REMEDY FOR GAPES.

It Is Always Effective nuchun Be
Applied \Vlt-hoat Dangei': to the
Youngest. Birds. 1’

 

There are several remedies for
gapes, but the difficulty is that some;

difiiculty occurs mostly on farms upon
which fowls have been kept for years.
It is caused by acollection of small,
threadlike worms in the windpipe of
the chicken. To kill these worms and
not injure the chicken is laborious.
Take a glass tube with a small rubber
bulb (which apothecaries sell for a
“medicine-dropper”), half fill it with
camphorated oil, and inserting the tip
in the windpipe, discharge the oil. A
small oil can used for sewing machines i
may serve in place of the medicine-
drOpper. Operate as follows: Place the
chicken back down between your knees
and hold it gently; open the bill and
draw the tongue. Seize the lower man:
dible and tongue thus drawn out be-
tween the forefinger and thumbnail of
the left hand. This will bring into view
the opening into the windpipe at the
base of the tongue, into which gently
insert the tube and discharge the oil,
using about one drop. Close the bill
and hold-the head still for a few sec-
onds. Then let the chicken go, and it
will cough, spattering some of the oil
out, but enough remains to destroy the
worms, and they will, be coughed up
and swallowed. The gapes continue for
some time after the treatment, but the
remedy will be effectual in every case
if properly applied, and it may be'read-
ily repeated, if considered worth while,
as often as necessary. After a little
practice it is very easily applied and al-
ways succeeds. A breadcrumb upon
which is one or two drops of a mixture
of camphoratcd oil and oil of turpen-
tine forced down the throat is some-
times effectual, but it does not always
reach the windpipe. Pulling out the
worms with the strip of a feather is
painful to the chick. —Farm and Fire-

SITTING-HEN COOLER.

A Device That Has Worked Like a
Charm \threver It Has Been
Given a Trial.

 

When the “good will” of a sitting hen
is not wanted, she most generally be—
comes a nuisance. Hence the reason
why sitting hens receive so much abuse
at the hands of their owners when at-
tempts are made to-“break up” the sit-
ting fever. If rightly handled, the

“hottest” hen may be induced in a few
days to go to scratching and give up all
idea of sitting, without being cruel to
her, either. Get a grocery box, or some-
thing similar, and convert it into the
affair shown in out. It has no bottom,
but one end has a slopingtop to throw
off rain and also to protect the hen from
the sun. The remainder of the top is
covered with slats. .The two holes at

Oats are about the best substitute for
“bread” when refractory hens thus
have to be placed on “dungeon diet.”—
Fred 0. Sibley, in Ohio Farmer.

The Value of Warmth.

Both adults and chicks love warmth.
The hens will select the sunny spots,
especially if protected against the
winds on damp or cold days, while
even on the warmest days of July the

a heavy shower suddenly come up, and
the chicks appear dead, place them near
a stove, or in an oven of moderate heat,
and notice how quickly the apparently
dead chicks will come to life again!
Heat is the great life-giving element.
Should disease of any kind appear al-
ways provide a dry and (warm place.
There is no remedy for roup that equals
warmth, pet that warmth will cure it,
but warmth invigorates the fowl and
enables it to withstand the ordeal.—
