It has struck heme, and there was too much truth In th story to attempt a denial of it. The only hope was to secure prm? sort of denial from Mrs. Davis. ThU mlsht be done by Intimidation or hy misquoting h'T own ftatemer.ts. An emissir was Krnt to her for the purpose of getting scan" rrounds upon which to j-et on foot something to counteract the effects the story. It would not do to investigate the matt.r to -lnS"ly at Anderson, for there was no hope .f discovering anything v.lil.h would in the hast deny the stit"tuciits of Mrs. Davis. It wmiM not do to att.mpt the arii.lavit denial, for wno would lluy uet to make the allldaxit? Logically the oiny man to make the af!ld.ivit would be Mr. Henry h'mself, and he coal I not weil rush into print as d -nying in that niaiin. r the charges.

I'edirree, though an imp irtant factor in the make-up of mas: cws, is by no means an infallible rule ur guide toward adding individual merit to such animals as fail to give go d results cither In milk or butter when properly cared for and fed fur that purp.ise. The foundation of any g; -l hvd depend? upon the cutting out of such animals a3 do not come up to a j-r 'per standard of excellence by sending them promptly to the shambles to be slaughtered, thereby fulfilling their mission as beef producers. While ft is not alvay3 the case that go-Kl Uams transmi: their milk and butter quail:!".-? tl their offspring, It is nearly always the case that p.xar dams leave little else but their bad qualities to their female descendant?, although one admission might be made when a llrst-class sire Is used. Kveii then the chances for improvement are ten ti one in favor of c mbininrx :ho l est of both sexes, rather than to use a goal sire on a worthless dam. Without th use of the vhurn to test the ability of individual row It is a "pie; in a poke" K-mie to po on year af.er year, getting id deiinlte results out of a dairy. Yet hundred- of farmers are d .ing this very thing and annually adding unprofitable stock to th 'ir dairies by raising heifer calves from nnproJUablo oows. Men who a few years ai- l"g.m to cull out of their herds the unproll table individuals are today In circumstances that -.nable th-.-m to operate u dairy at a k I j.ioiu and to sell their surplus stocU at prices that make the business have a silver lir.intr. It is well to eilueate one's self In the I'm ' f what is tin- ;.-vner:il appearance of a lv-if. r calf that promises well for a gool I . w wh n ktowii. Th.-re are characteristics, outlines and Individuality that are unmistakable, some of which the Rood housewife can readily distinguish. Color may n.t be considered a point, yet a slmilaiity looking toward the breed from which its blood predominates should by no means be overlook-d. A symmetry that blends largely with the outline of the best of Us breed should be the best euide throuj'h the eyes of the breeder. Tills cilf should have a bricht, prominent eye, looklii'; out to the sides, a neat, thin car, broadening from the base, well to the i:d. A heifer that Is expo ted to make n good cow does n t need the legs thit are necei-saiy to carry up an ox or beef steer, but should b" of a neat, delicate liiiish from the body to the hoof. D. ncih of body, as wa ll a.s depth, should be a noticeable feature, with a fair distance rea-hing from hip to rump. Hut little attention is paid now to the es-i-u.che-.n, but much more to the promise of udder and teat development. Personal expeii -nee has t night me that the latter 1- by n i means a matter of small importance. As a rule, ?,,, teats are the for. runners of a e,,od udder development, and dairymen who desire that a decree of j .court shall attend their chosen occupation should at least See thit their coming birds have a majority of the points mentioned. T i develop su h an Inoiviilii il requires care, j-r. -mp-nes nn.l proper nourishment, and u-ually the housewife succeeds be.-t ill making out cf these h -ifers the very bos: cows that adorn our herJ-t. Net that she should have the drudgery thrust tip-.n lnr. as a matter of adding more are to her already numerous bar-lens, but that the -calf r-hall se the p.-ni'.ility cf moraeih .d fre.-uently. With lu-rcare its life is naturally In better hands, with mueh better chances of becoming a ow me day than when left ti the U-nder care cf th- hired man r even to the owner of the dairy. Sh" will give it two quirts of new in ilk fresh from the cow when weaned from the m ither as a starter, and ineriMse the am Hint dally with rrood fr-kim milk (not separator) till the amount reaches f tur quarts. The diet is changed gradually to pure skim milk with the addition of one tablespoonful of linseed meal thoroughly cooked and well in eotp -rated with tie1 milk, which should be hcited to a few degrees above normal heat. Clean tlm ithy hay is placed before the little c w. which it soon learns to pick at and eat. A little bran and groun-1 oats are added .13 a further ln.bieemen: to it to promote prowth. I'.y all iii'-ans keep from it any ami n'.l-etass-c-5 f feeds that tend to produce fat. Sovel IIIrl-Sen rinn Devlee. S me of the farmers of the Eifel, the district that lies between the frontier of IJelRium and the lihine, adopt a novel plan for scaring the birds from the wheat. A number of poles are set up in the cornfields anil ii wire is conducted from one to the other, ju.'t like the telegraph posts that are placed along our railways. From the tap of tea eh pole there hans a bell, which H connected with a wire. Xnw, in the valley a brook runs almg, with a current strong enough to turn a small water wheel, to which the wire is fastened. As the wheel goes around i: jerks the wire, and so the bells in the different lields are set tinkling. The bells thus mysterlouply rune friijatiin the birds from the grain, and even excite the wonder of men and women until they discover the secret. This fdmple contrivance is feitnd to serve its' furpxse very well. All Aronn.l the Fiirin. A writer claims that a thin coat of axle prease applied to the apple trees In the late fall, with a salff Lrtush, will keep off mice and rabbits.

From many careful experiments It has been determined that the force necessary to draw a piven load, on a level on a frood broken stone road, is le.ss than onethird of that required to draw the same load on a common earth road. Kxporlnvnts show that a prain of wheat prcduc"s forty foil. Kvcry pound should bring forty. It therefore follows that much c.f our seed wheat is wasted when we sow one and onp-fourth bushels an acre and get from ten to twenty Excepting the golden rod. milk weed and rap-weed, all the rest of our weeds have been imported. The foreign weeds are the most troublesome and liersistent. If It was someone's duty to keep them from the highways, these pests would not travel ro fast. Keep the back barnyard as neat as the front: hive the manure pile, the olü board pile, th" rubbish pile, always under cover. Make the neatness of your place noticeable, and teach not only your own boys, but the whole neighborhood, lessons of beauty and thrift.

Fheep are delicate feeders and will reject anything that i3 not perfectly sweet. They sniff at ensilage, and if in any large quantity they will cat very little and then reject the remainder. Only a very little at first should be given to them, and after they have oaten It all change the food to clover hay. In this way a habit of likinp ensilage will be formed.

His trousers were carefully creased, his coat was long, and he held his stick In the approved fashion. With him were two charming-lo. .king young women. Their complexions were freh. their teeth white and small, and their pray eyes bright with an honest, mirthful spirkle. Th. y Ivan! d a lhoadway cable car, the girls climb;:;;; i;p with unconventional alacrity, the man .-.winging himself to the platform with an assumption of easy dignity. The girls plumped them;-rlves down on the seat and then crowded closely together, for the car was about full, to make room f..r him. "Sit here, George. There Is plenty of room." said one. patting about two Inches of .pace wi h a little hind that in a m nise-c j'.ored glove looked very prettv. "Oh! no," said George graciously. "You v-ill be more comfortable if I stand up." So the girls smiled and laughed and chatttd. while he stood straight up with a lofty, know-it-a'.l" air. Those girls were delightful to the rest of the pa.-sengers. There was something about them that showed that they ware not New York girls, though they were dressed in the prop.T New York fashion. They were wholesome-looking girls, who smiled when they were pleased and laughed when they were amused. They were full of youthful spirits, and their Innocent frankness was reflected in their pretty faces. When they laughed they made no attempt to conceal the clear ring in their veiict-s. There was not the slightest affectation in their manner; not the faintest trice of a "pose." Every movement and posture of the young man was studied to give hi,m a cold. calm, superior appearance. If he were not to the New York manner born he wtus at least carefully trained to it. It Avas -warm in the car, and he stepied forward to catch the cooling; bre-eze on the front ilatform. The door was open and he "took up a dignified position there. "No standing on the platform," said the gripinun curtly. "Oh! Is that the rule?" said the other stepping back. In two pairs of gray eyes there was a gleam of fun that "George" should have been cau transgressing a New York rule. Ot' . air of pretty lips curved suspiciously, giving warning of a little laugh. Another pair, pressed tightly together, held In check what would have been a musical peal. Swift glances were exchanged. Just then the car gave a quick twl't, and ""Jeo.-Re" wen; forward with a lurch. To save himself, he caught the handle of one of the doors. The weight of hi? body drew it toward him. Uroadway cars, as those who ride on them know, have double doors. When on'e opens its half brc'ther does the same. When one closes the other comes half way to meet It. Poor George worked his own destruction. His body ke't the doors from closing entirely, but they crushed his splendid, hat and they skinned his well-shaped nose, sending his stick to the lloor with a most unconventional clatter. There was alarm In the faces of the two young women then, but when he gathered up his hat and stick, and, with a bore, uninterested look on his face, resumed as easy a position as circumstances would permit, the countenances of the girls changed. "A man-trap," h? said", with calm scorn, and at that it came two bursts of ringing laughter. They tried to stop, but they could not. He did look like a fool, standing there with a haughty look on his face, but a battered hat on his head, a passionless, steely eye, but a skinned nose. Peal after peal came, not louJ and vulgar, but musical and mirth-stirring. There was no stopping" that merriment- They laughed and they smiled, and, it must be confessed, they giggled. Every time their eyes met they either began with a glgg'.e and ended with a laugh, or, starting with a laugh, ran it on into giggle. And all the white he stood In his end' of the car like a statue which seme Irreverent man bad decorated with a smashed silk hat. The passengers, too, were Joining In the chorus. That merriment was irresistibly Infeetious. and, however mueh one could admire the unflinching courage of the young man, sympathy was with those girls, who did not take life so seriously as the maa. Finally the got up. Hefore they reached the rear platform the young man began to administer a severe reproof in a low tone. "Isn't' it enough," he said, "to have a grlpman show his insolence, and to have a lot of stupid passengers snicker at a man's unavoidable mishaps, without having his own sisters humiliate him?" "Hut. George," said one In a whisper, "you did look so funny." They were filing off the platform Into the street now. "It may be funny," said the young man. with lofty scorn, "but I call it very unbecoming. My own sisters" but the rest was lost In. the merry peals which again burst from the girls. N. Y. Tribune.

Stories have been to'.d about the to-s-ing of a copper, but th greatest amount of money tha: was ever involved in the turning of a copper cent was whin W. C. Cup and his partner, Henry Kelche, flipped a capper to see who would b? the owner of the New York aequarium. Eich man had $3.,0O0 invested in the aequarium and the copper was thrown Into the air to see who would take the whole thing. It was the large-: wager ever made under similar circumstances. Unique as wagering one-third of a million dollars ujKin the turn of a copp'-r may be, It Is but a small cireums-'.ance In the varied life of the veteran showman. W. C. Coup, who had charge of the horse curriculum at the state fair a few weeks ago. He has mule and lost many fori unes and has hid experiences that Would have driven many a man into the grave f.r 'the asylum. W. C. C nip is the oldest living shownnn with th; single exception of lan Kiee, the veteran c lo wn who use l t rule in the ring an.l split the sides of a generation now prown old. He entered the bu.-aness in 1?."3. when there were but four other shows in the country. Tlv-se ware Spudding & ltogi-rs's, E. F. & J. May bo's. Van Amburg'.s and John K abinson's. Mr. Coup Is almost a native of Indiana. He was born in Pennsylvania, but hi parents moved to Washington. Ind., when h" was one year old, and h re he lived until he was fifteen, wnn he went to Texas and bought a ranch with the intention of gjing Int the sheep business. Hut dr night. Il.nds. f.-orts and grassh ppei. came In rapid su eccsslon and the she-p business ceased to be attractive or profitable. Young Coup decide i to abandon the prairie and hie himself to m ire densely-populated regions. He was getting loiiesom". He started f r Chicago, then a small t wn that was attracllng some attentl n through the West. On bin way to the North he ran across a poster about eight Inches square which advertised that VanAtnberg's circus would be 'ilong in two months and would pass within one hundred miles ?f where the bill was posted. Two months later young Cup rode Into Chicago, hitched bis horse 'n fr nt :f a tavern and looked about him. He was full of the Idea of launching a ihov on the road and as he bad a little money l.c- was hunting for some attractions. Puked by energy and perseverance, two traits tlm t were aw ays ha.xicterlstle of the man. n ? the f-am" year had succeedM in getting a few attractions together and stnrtcd out. His partner was a man named Hntler, and th" Fhow was what was called a made-up nggre-ratlon. It was much of a circus and of c uro such a thing as a menagerie was out of the question in tho-sv days. They trav-led west and within two months were m Missouri, where they found the feeling against the northerners so bitter ti.at 3; nearly every town there was an effort made to break up the show. In ihose days every western town contained a gang of tough.- who prided themselves u; 11 their brute force and bullying powiis and who took pride in "cleaning e.ut any stranger that came around their pans." Circus hands were a new thin,; and afforded opportun!) y for a light. This was all that was wanted. A lliitlle In .'llnonrI. At the very first Missouri town the show (struck a gang came around before noon and tried to start a row. A negro had joined the show as teat hand In Iowa and wh.-n the Mlssourlans saw the "nigger" they used him as a pretext to start a right. The showmen were accused of stealing him and he was demanded. The demand was refused and a fight started In which all Joined and one man was killed. The gang was at liagth driven off and the negro was left with a knife sticking in his back. T.ie entire tent was not as large as the difsing tent of tho last circus Mr. Coup owned, but It was considered very large in thoe days. In Arkansas the same experience was met two weeks later an.l so de.-'perate was this battle that the showmen were compelled to make a barricade of their wagons and fight for their lives with their rifles. Mr. Coup had two men killed and twenty wounded and the tight wr.i so stull-orn that he was compelled to leave In the night while the gang was reorganizing to renew the attack the next day. A start of fifteen miles was secured iKfore daylight, but there was a hot pursuit and the same evening the pang came up with them. A running fight was mahuai.ied for 100 miles and the gang did not pull off until the showmen had reached the protection of the French settlements of Louisiana. There had never been a show In Mexico at that time, and it was determined, after repairs had been made and the wounded had recovered, to make a tour of -Mexico. Going f r mi Matamoras to Monterey 'bandits attacked the wagons and everything was stolen. This ended the expedition. The next year Mr. Coup started for Cuba and the West Indies with the first circus that hj.d ever visited the Inland?. A new outfit had been secured and the new venture seemed destined to be prosperous. A heavy ftorm. however, overtook them during the passage, and as the ship was in momentary danger of going to the bottom every horse belonging to the show was thrown overboard. In Hayti they couldn't make the people understand when they asked for food and they had t) take it by force or starve. This brought on another 'bush fight anl several men were killed on both sides. The expedition proved a3 disastrous as the first. Dun Illee'n Wonderful Powers. "The next year," said Mr. Coup, as he lighted a fresh cigar, "I rjot Dan Rice to travel with me. He was then a green hand at the -business, ibut had such powerful personal magnetism and such a wonderful command of language that the people went wild over him. and his success was assured. His first successful season was made witn me. I never saw a man who had the same gift of language and the same has been said of him by some of the greatest orators th? country has produced. We hid added a menagerie by this time, which consisted of a came!, three monkeys and a wildcat. "Put I got tired of the show -tusiness, in which everything was Ions and danger, and married, removed to Wisconsin and quit the business entirely In 1SC0. I started a fbank, a hardware store and a cheese factory. I was soon the father of twins, but the little ones died, and after that I wanted the excitement of the show business to divert my attention from my aniiction. There had never been a circus around the lakes and I started one for thl3 purpose, opening at St. Jo, with $1 as the price of admission. With eight horses and fifty people I made $30,000 that season and then made up my mind to 'branch out. I learned that IJarnum had eight camels, which was a grand aggregation of animal3 In those days, and I wanted to form a junction with him. Partner of 1. T. Il.-t rn urn. "P. T.
