A HERO GUNTER

■ "Won't you give me my answer, Daisy?” said handsome Frank Allison pleadingly, trying to take his pretty little cousin’s hand. '

“How persistent you afe, Frank!” she exclaimed In some petulance, snatching away the diminutive white member impatiently. “I have already told you I would never accept a man of the ordinary level of mankind. I’ll wait until I meet a really heroic, noble man, oue who would risk his own life to save mine. There, Frank, you have your final answer.” “But I’d do as much as that, Daisy,” he said earnestly. “I would, Indeed, if I only had the opportunity.” "Without a doubt, sir, though I must say*l am Inclined to disbelieve your statement. You are not of a heroic make, Frank, and you ought not to aspire to things you could never perform. The Idea of considering yourself a hero! Oh, Mr. Allison, I advise you to abandon the foolish thought”

"Daisy, how can you say so?” he cried reproachfully. “I know—l am convinced you are speaking but idle, empty words. Daisy, you know I hold a greater part of your heart than you care to own; eh, my pretty hero hunter?” And his speech ended in a teaßlng tone of voice.

The Impudent fellow actually enjoyed the red flush that crimsoned the pinkness of her cheeks, the angry flash of her gray blue eyes, the scornful curl of her short upper lip. Daisy Vsme was very angry indeed to all appearances, and her words confirmed her Insulted looks. “How dare you, Frank Allison?” she exclaimed. “How dare you, I say? Hero hunter, Indeed! Very complimentary, I really must acknowledge! Thank you, sir!” Mr. Allison grew Instantly penitent, or perhaps pretended to be so. His face took on a sorrowful cast of expression. “Forgive me, Daisy, dear. I was beside myself, love,” he murmured, with a languishing glance. “Your Daisy dear! Your love, forsooth!” the Indignant damsel said scornfully. “Once and for all, Mr. Allison, I decline to listen to any more of your endearing epithets. You have belled your words, sir. I’ou are anything but a hero, sir, and consequently you are unworthy of my hand.” Frank fired up under this blaze of scorn. He drew his fine figure up proudly and haughtily. He "smiled as scornfully and spoke as coolly as Miss Yane herself. “My heroism has not been proved as yet, Miss Vane, that I know of. Until you are certain of my defects in that quarter I think you would do well to reserve your opinion. But I will not detain you any longer. Allow me to wish you a very good morning,” he said, with 'inimitable politeness of manner. And off be walked in fine style after honoring Daisy with a courtly bow and haughty smile.

“I hope he is not offended,” she thought as she pursued her solitary way along the verdant path on the wide, green field. ‘‘Though he did behave nonsensically, yet I do think, after all, he is of a heroic make. I actually wish something would happen to me and Frank would display bis heroism, and then it would turn out all right. Frank was right when he said he knew he held a place in my heart. But unless something does oecur I will never let him know I care for him at all. Oh, something must happen!” she exclaimed aloud, and from the depths of her tender little heart there fluttered a sigh. And, would you believe it then and there something did happen! Did you ask what It was? Well, a deep, sonorous growl fell on the fresh country air, and Daisy looked up to behold an enormous bull only a few paces from her and looking fixedly at her. In a moment she understood the cause of this unwelcome encounter. She wore a light woolen shawl of a vivid scarlet color, the very hue that arouses all the fierceness In such an animal.

Daisy gave a wild shriek, and, turning around, she fled with wonderful fleetness back the way she had come. But quick as she ran her speed was nothing compared to the terrible rate at which the huge animal behind her came along. Her fate seemed Inevitable. She paused a second for breath and gave a long, piercing shriek. The next Instant she certainly would have been tossed mercilessly over the high wall that inclosed a part of the field, when—oh, what a blessed relief -she beheld Frank Allison close beside her. Catching the terrified girl In his arms, he first tore off the scarlet shawl and flung it back at the bull, who, now that he bad the offending color all to himself, vented his fury on the poor little shawl by tearing It to shreds, after which operation he contented himself by beginning quietly to graze on the green grass. All danger being passed, Frank silently went on until they readied a low stile, and then he released his fair burden. Their eyes met Daisy’s face flamed with crimson blushes, and her pretty Ups quivered softly. Frank put his arm around her waist and drew the yielding form to him. “Daisy, will yon give me my answer now?” he asked. "You are my hero, Frank," she whispered slowly. “And you’ll be my wife, darling?" ‘TU be anything you want Frank, for I love you and will acknowledge you to be my hero,” she said submissively. “My sweet little heoo hunter, you have found your level at last So lam your here!” And Frank sealed his words with a kiss of their betrothaL— Exchange.

The SPORTING WORLD

Datr a WeaiMtsl Rasaer. John J. Daly, who recency won In New York the five mile refhnlng championship of America, Is the champion cross country runner of Ireland. Daly, hailing from Dowras, County Galway, first attracted attention in

JOHN J. DALY, INTERNATIONAL ATHLETIC CHAMPION.

1901. Since then he has acquired a reputation by leaps and bounds, as his records show. Ills maiden efforts In athletics were In the broad jump, but he soon discovered his abilities as a runner and confined all his attention to this branch of sports. Daly has not only beaten all the best runners in Ireland, but has held his own with England’s best men. In an eight mile race in England he finished second to Schrubb, Great Britain’s most famous distance runner, and was only beaten a few yards. 1 He has won in all four cross country championships of Ireland —the four miles fiat once, three miles once, two miles once, one mile twice, international mile and four miles once. Dnn Patch, Great Record Holder. Dan Patch, the unbeaten pacing champion, has now made his last attempts of this season to reduce the pacing figures. The brown son of Joe Patchen will go into winter quarters with till the world’s records to his credit, just as he did a year ago. By recently pacing a mile to sulky in 1:50 flat Dan Patch broke his own world’s record for such a performance and incidentally set new figures which stand today as the fastest mile ever negotiated by a horse in harness. The record, while the fastest of many held by Dan Patch, is not regarded with any more importance than is the half mile mark of 0:50 made over the local track In 1903 or any other of the wonderful flights against time which marked kls appearance each season. The three choicest records sought for by horsemen are held by Dan Patch. They were made with a pacemaker In front, but without the aid of the regulation wind shield: Mile pacing record to sulky, 1:56; mile pacing record to wagon, 1:57%; half mile record to sulky, 0:56. New Automobile Record*. Frank Croker, driving a seventy-five horsepower racing car, has made new track records at the Empire City (New York) track from one mile to twelve In a twenty mile trial against time. On his thirteenth mile one of the tires exploded, and be had to withdraw. The first mile was covered in 57 3-5 seconds, four-fifths of a second better than the previous amateur record of 58 2-5 seconds, made by Frank G. Garbutt last month in Dos Angeles, Cal. Croker’s time for the twelve miles was 11 minutes 32 1-5 seconds. His best mile was the eleventh, made In 56 3-5 seconds, which is the world’s amateur record for a mile. Frank Kulick sent a twenty horsepower car against Alfred Vanderbilt’s thirty horsepower car And W. Gould Brokaw’s sixty horsepower racer. Kulick won and made new records for two and three miles, 1 minute 64 seconds and 2 minutes 51 seconds.

HINTS FOR FARMERS

■ V Applying Maaara. The two mistakes most frequently met with In spreading manure are that the applications are too heavy and It is not pulverized finely enough, says a Kentucky farmer In American Agriculturist. I have seen many loads thrown out on the ground in large chunks, some the size of a man’s head and from three to five feet apart. I cannot Imagine a worse way. Manure should be pulverized and applied evenly. The amount to be used will depend on the kind of soil, the crop to be raised and the quality of the fertilizer. Clay soils, for instance, will retain the strength of the manure for several years, while a sandy soil will lose aIL the benefit ip one year. Therefore on sandy soils I use manure sparingly. On corn land, with the right kind of soli, there Is no danger of too heavy applications, but on small grain a heavy coating will often cause It to fall. When sowing grass seed on grain land I sow before the manure is spread, In this way I am sure of a good stand of grass.

Preserve the Wood Lot. A wood lot that will furnish plenty of fuel for home use and where there Is sufficient growing limber for the lumber that will be needed for repairs or the ereetion of new buildings Is a valu-able-part of the farm and should be highly prized and judiciously cared for by the Owner. It does not require a very large area of thrifty woodland to afford a plentiful supply for the household. By carefui management there should be a sufficient amount afforded each year without detracting from the value of the lot, as there will usually be frees that are past their maturity or dead and that should be removed to give place to a young and thrifty growth that will soon make Its appearance.—American Cultivator. _ * Ration For Pigs. A suitable ration for the growing pigs is made of two parts shorts and three parts corn, where these feeds are available. It may be found profitable to substitute tankage for the shorts In some cases. Tankage is a packing house product of high feeding value. It produces very desirable results when fed In connection with corn. As the pigs get older the proportion of corn may be Increased. The growing pigs should have sufficient protein In their food for the protection of good bone and strong frames, and It is essential that they be pushed to maturity as rapidly as possible.—lndiana Experiment Station.

Preserving Fence Posts. Hundreds of methods of preserving posts have been tried, but few of them have proved practical for the farmer because of the difficulty or expanse of treating them. One of the experiment stations has recently begun an extensive experiment with several of the most promising of these methods, most of which depend on extracting the natural juices of the wood and tilling the pores with some antiseptic preparation which prevents the’ working of wood destroying q?erms. Charring the posts seems to be about the best of the simpler methods of treatment. Hot tar is another good preservative. Beeta For Swine Fe^d. In Nebraska the use of beets for swine in place of the filthy slop usually put in barrels to ferment has made a change on some farms in the condition of the hogs. There is less disease, and but little corn Is required with the beets, except when making the animals fat for slaughter late in the year. Beets contain a large proportion of sugar and are fattening as well as juicy and are highly relished.

Care of Manure. When manure is very dry the chemical changes are slow, but changes occur rapidly where It Is moist. This fact is sufficient to show that when manure is mixed with an abundant supply of absorbent material and stored away under shelter It will undergo but little change, but when wanted for use may be soon decomposed by saturating the heap with urine.

Feeding the Dairy Cow. Grind grain for dairy cows and slice all roots. This preparation of the feed renders the assimilation by the cow less laborious. Where labor Is cheap It would appear that preparing feed In this manner Is profitable. If labor Is very high It may pay to omit the grinding of the grain and slicing of the roots.—American Agriculturist. Cello la Horse*. For home treatment of spasmodic colic in horses two ounces sweet spirits of niter and two ounces laudanum in a pint of raw linseed oil water is a good remedy. Oil may be given after. Often when a horse shows the first symptoms a tablespoonful of soda In a pint of sweet milk will do the work.

Good Calf Feed. In changing from milk to grain feeds, crushed linseed is recommended. Begin with a small quantity. Stir into the skim milk given the calves, gradually Increasing *untll a full ration Is being eaten. Alfalfa For Sheep. Alfalfa hay Is excellent for sheep of all grades. The animals relish It and when fed in connection with other feeds results in more rapid gains than when ordinary farm hays are fed. Warta oa No** of Horae. Scrape off the top of each wart and apply a little terchloride of antimony with a feather and repeat every third day until It disappears. Bolglaa Carrots. The large white Belgian carrot Is considered one of profitable varieties for feeding stock.
