PARTY LINE TELEPHONE. A Squabbie DBeiween Subscribers That Was Settled Very -Speedo ily and Amicably. - Washington has thousands of party line telephones. The best of feeling does not always prevail -between those on the party lines when both want to use the 'phone at tue same time, says the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. . A prominent politician is on a party line('with a doctor. He was in’ great haste to get a friend over the 'phone and began ringing and shouting ‘“‘hello.” The other subscriber wanted to use his telephone at the same time, with the result they were soon saying harsh things to each other. “Who are you,” demanded the politician: “I'm Dr. Blank,” was the'answer. “Oh; pardon -me, doctor, you can have the line. 1t it weren't for you I couldn’t make a living.” : oy “Well, who are you?” asked the doctor. “I'm Jones, the undertaker,” was the answer. e : 3 ——o‘—-——-..—--‘———-_ _ Not \Vlthon&lnistinctio'n. . * A note of family pride was struck in the conversation between three small Reading boys the other day. The parts played by their respective grandfathers in the civil war were being depicted by two of the boys in vivid colors. The career of each, it seemed, had been halted by confinement in southern prisons, and it was on the latter fact that the lads laid particular stress. The third youth, unable to match these recitals with any military achievement- of his own forefathers, preferved an envious silence for a while; and then, not to be outdone, said, disparagingly: “Why, that’s not so mueh. My Uncle Bill was in jail a long time, and he was never in the army at all.”’—Philadelphia Ledger.

THE BROWNLOW BILL.

It Advocates the Kind of “Paternalism” Which Will Make Our Country Prosperous. >

Some very worthy people with irreproachable intentions profess alarm at the purposes and provisions. of the Brownlow good roads bill because it savors of paternalism. To hear them expatiate on that dread evil with which the country is threatened by this bill one with humorous susceptibilities and a logical sense cannot fail to be amused. What is this awful bogie man thus invoked to frighten people into an unreasoning apprehension just as children are made tractable after dark by weird and supernatural suggestion?

Paternalism is the exercise in government of those methods which a fa-

BROWNLOW, 5 (Author of the Nationel Aid Gocd Roads Bill.) : ther with good instincts practices towards his children. In the -domestic Sphere it is always commended, because it is humane and decent and produces only happiness and good. Itisreally the measure of efficiency and perfection in free government. “Of the people, by the people, for the people.” History contains no record of any savage tribe with a geological survey, a census bu-

reau, weather bureau, department of commerce and labof, or a divicion distributing~seeds, potatoes and turnips frée.through its-post office, or even with a post office to distribute them through. Government of the people, by a tyrant, with a club, always lacks the alarming attributes of paternalism. The framers of our'national constitution, realizing that they were preparing an instrument by which the people of that and coming time were to evolve the most perfect and effective government on theearth,incorporatedintothat instrument all the paternalism feasible at that pericd of human knowledge, and provided for advance in knowledge by incorporating a provision empowering corigress to legislate for the ‘general welfare.” It is a fact that nearly all the progress we have made in that government has been inimproving and adding paternalistic features. In this'year of grace, 1904, we shall expend in the United- States and our insular possessions practically $150,000,000 for our postal service alone, and that is typical paternalism:. -

‘). The most beneficent way in which a kind father can assist his children is by helping thém to help themselves. That' is the principle of the Brownlow bill in so far as it involves any paternalism. A very interesting precedent for government assistance and stimulus, to a state, in a matter which the state could not have carried cut alone, has been afforded in California. The Fiftysixth ‘congress appropriated $400,000, to be used in. conjunction with an .equal amount appropriatéd by the legislature of California, to construct a dam across the narrows. of the Yuba river, one of the t’ributarifs of the .Sacramento. Hydraulic mining, one of the industries which had made California known. as the “golden state,” had been paralyzed by a decree of the United States eourt, enjoining all hydraulic mining on the head waters of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers. The debris washed down from the banks of gravel, which had been dissolved to get their hidden gold, had been carried down by the waters and deposited upon the lowlands. Farms had been destroyed, cities had watched the rivers flowing by gradualiy raised until their bottoms were !far above the streets and inundation prerented only by high levées. The only method by which such damage could be prevented and the industry resumed was to build-a dam and, by thus holding back the water, making a settling pond. To dq this on a sufficiently extersive scale to afford satisfactory and adequate relief required a greater expenditure than California felt that it could afford. She appealed to congress to.help her with the burden and corgress responded. The dam is being buiilt. Great benefits are anticipated. ' It is expected that the object lesson thus afforded will induce the expenditure of much state and privdte momney for a similar purpose and that the government, having thus helped the people to help themselves in this way, need not be called on further. :

The Bacon Hog ‘Misjudged, When the bacon hog was first introluced many farmers were shy of him, thinking that he would be hard to feed, but éxpggimeng_s that have been made with the different breeds to ascertain if possible which breeds give the best results for food consumed, go to 'show that no one breed can claim a superiority in this, as different breeds came out ahead at different times. Experiments show’that as much depends on the individ#al as on the breed. Another wrong impression that prevailed was that by selling hogsat 160 to 180 pounds weight we were losing money, as it was thought that at that size the frame was grown and additional weight could be added at less cost per pound. Experiments time and again show that the first 50 pounds cost less than the second, the second 50 pounds less than the third, an so on.—W. 8. Fraser, in ‘Farmers' Review, S eSS

MANAGING A HEIFER.

Much of the Young Animal’s Success as a Dairy Cow Depends on a Correct Start.,

No matter how well a heifer is backed up by the milking qualities of ancestors, much of her success as a dairy cow depends on getting her rightly started. Accordingly, ,though kept in a thrifty condition, she should not be encouraged to 'fatten while growing, ‘lest when growth be attained all her surplus food goes to fat. It is advisable to have her freshen as soon as she is two' years old, if not a little before, and, generally speaking, the ealf remoyed the moment it is born—if possible 'so she will not see it, least of all touch it. Given, then, two quarts of sweetened and salted oatmeal, or linsegd gruel, including drinking waterxwit‘;h the chill taken off, she should four hours later be milked and the calf fed. That the milkirg may be nothing’'new to her, her udder and teats should have been previously handled, ard even some milk drawn every night and morning if the udder happens to be too full for a few days before the calf is_dropped. During this critical period she might be fed a moderate grain ration twice a day, composed of bran and corn meal, butif so her udder should

‘be closely ‘watched, to see if it becomes hard and hot; in that case it should be bathed in warm water and rubbed with a camphorated preparation and . the grain ration, of course, stopped. Assuming, however, that she freshens in every respect without mishap, in a week or two her food should be steadily but lightly increased, with the milking done by the same person at regular hours, The cbject should be to make her maintain a goed flow for a long time or until she calves again, if possible, and if -she seems capable of enduring this treatment, she should be'liberally fed. ‘While the practice of continuous milking from year to year is nct to be advocated, since, as a rule, cows do better work and produce stronger progeny when given a chance ‘to build up for a month or six weeks before parturition, it is policy to establish in the heifer, if one can, the habit of long milking which will go with her through life.—Agricultural Epitomist. . :

It is not true that any kind of salt will do for dairy butter. Salt hasa great deal to do with the quality and keeping properties of butter. Only the best should, therefore, be used. It may cost a trifle more to buy it, but the return will make up for that in a short time. ) Most any man can get up in the morning and throw a lot of hay into the manger for his cows. But that is not dairying. Dairying means care as well as feeding. Study, as well as getting up at four o’clock in the morning. Gentleness and patience, no less than the heavier tasks connected with a herd of cows from which one hopes to make his living.— Farm Journal., \

Dairy Work as a Sciénce. Dairy schools are now in operation in many states, and short courses of instruetion in butter and cheese making are given at some of the agricultural colleges. It was long ago demonstrated that inferior butter could not compete with oleomargarine, and that good butter of choice quality could always be sold at a good price. The fact has also been demonstrated: that there was much to learn in making good butter; and that cleanliness and the proper management of the milk were essential in producing the choice article. There has been a wenderful advance in methods of butter making, and oleomaragine is responsible for-it. Consumers will not purehase the counterfeit article if they can get the genuine, and poor butter is as much a counterfeit as any other imitation.——' Rural World. ; Elgin an Ornamental Crab.

Place.—Shore of the Sea of Galilee, near Capérnaum. : NOTES AND COMMENTS.

“The multitude:” Not mentioned in Matthew and Luke. The three accounts should be read, as they supplement each other. Jesus Wwas now a prominent figure in Judea and Galilee, and though He had just come to Capernaum, His fame lad preceded Him, and and crowds followed Him everywhere. “The word of God:” Word from God. Jesus “brought word,” good néws, a communication from God. “The lake of Gennesaret:” More commonly called the Sea of Galilee. "It is 13 miles long, and, at one point, eight miles wide. When Je~ sus, who had been driven’ from Nazareth, descended to it—it lies 680 feet below the level of the sea—it was pne of the most beautiful spots in the world. The upper hills were covered with fine oaks. and the lake was surrounded with stately palms. Now the hills are bare except for clumps of thorn bushes and thickets of oleander. Few of the palm trees have survived. 'ln .the time of Christ there were nine cities on the lake, averaging 15,000 inhabitants each. Only one remains, the misearable, feverstricken town of Tiberias.: The lake iz no longer covered with the sails of fishIng fleets, thoygh it is still full of fish. “Washing their nets:” The nets were similar to the large seines used now. Such nets always collect more or less dirt, water-logged sticks and the weeds that grow on the bottom. “Taughtthe multitude out of the boat:” The rabbis always sat down to teach. This is.one of the fascinating pictures of Christ. He did not wait for them to come to His church, but He went to them. He joined the fishermen at their work and taught them' while they worked from a boat, and it was so that Fle won His first disciples. X

The final appeal of Jesus to thesa sturdy fishermen was a strong oné It was not high logic, nor did it seek to win. them through their emotions. He simply entered their sphere of life and made Himself one of them. Forthe moment He was a fisherman and a master fisherman, and under His quiet direction these men who had followed the sea ail their lives ‘accomplished what they had not been able to.d6 in a whole nigh¥'s toil. They were amazed, impressed, ‘won. Nothing wins its way into the heart of the able andhonest workingman likesthe discovery that one who is distinctly above him, as men commonly rate things, one who he himself sees is far above him intellectually and spiritually, does not consider himself made of a better kind of ¢lay, but knows like a master the work in which he is himself engaged. Jesus showed the fishermen a mastety of the sea which no man had ever before approached, and this, in additlon to the marvelous Gospel of the Father which He preached. They were His; heart and soul, from that day forth. “Master, we toiled all night:” etc. Peter seems 'to have made the attempt more in deference to Jesus than because of great hope of success. At the same time he had seen enough of Jesus to have confidence in Him even when He spoke of things not spiritual. It was real faith. : ‘ ek

“Simon Peter, when he saw it:” “His full name is here ‘given, for this is the turning-point in his life; he enters now on a new career, in which the new name is better known.”—Prof. Riddle. “Depart from me,” ete.: “St. Peter did not mean the ‘Depart from me;’ he only meant—and this was known to the Searcher of hearts=—‘l am utterly unworthy to.be near Thee, yet let me stay.” ”—Farrar. “James and Johu:" The elder would probably be named first. James was the first of the disciples to be martyred. John we knowlas the “beloved disciple” and author of the Gospel of John. Andrew, who was probably with Peter, is net mentioned by Luke. ‘“Partnerm: with Simon:” The first men Jesus took to work with Him were men who bzd learned to work together. |2

“Fron henceforth thou shalt . catch men:"” The a‘nupuncement to Peter that he had a mission—that men, not fishes, were to interest bim from that time on. And Peter belicved Jesus. He had seen too much of Him to dcubt. “They left all and followed Him:” Andrew, James and John were called as well as Peter. They were completely won and cast in their lots with Rim for life. 'Now it was unbounded personal devotion. later there was added to it devotion.to the cause. It was a serious time for them. They coula not look far into the future, and it is a mercy they could not. In less than three years their Master was”to go to the gallows or its oriental equivalent, and few of them were to die natural deaths, but for all that no men in the world’s history ever had a more blessed life than they, and their nanfes to-day are among these held sacred in every Christian land. :

TERSE THOUGHTS ON LIFE.

-Man laughs at woman’s leve of candy In an attempt to divert her attention from the number of cigars he smokes.

Choose your friends as a doctor would prescribe medicine, to give what you lack. Some people -act as a sedative, others as a stimulant. 3 :

The rooms in our houses are like our relatives and clothes; they do not all suit our every mood, nor can one style take the place of another. ;

Some men feel that they -may mar their lives with all forms of discord and sin and still make it presentable by covering the last few years with a thin veneer of religious fervor, -

Some men keep their show of good breeding as an accessory for their frock or dinner coat, just as though they were ‘afraid of exhausting the supply by use during business hours.—N. Y. Herald.

How weary we all are of the person who finds “nothing as good as it used to be,” forgetting that the mellow moonlight of old age beautifies everything as it becomes a part of the background of life. ; ;

SURGERY FOR PET DOGS.

Veterinary Hospital Operated with as Much Care as If It Harbored Human Patients.

As you enter a veterinary hospital you will see against the wall a case of shining instruments, in no perceptible way different from those used in all forms of operations on human beings, | and certainly:n no way inferior, says | Outing. Are they for show? Back in the operating room a small group of earnest men bend over the table. There l on his back lies a little fuzzy dog, keptj quiet in his unconsciousness by ether’ administered through a cone of towel and paper, exactly like the one used When your little girl’s arm was straightened. This dog’s left hind leg had sustained an injury that stiffened the tendons over the knee and in the femur, drawing the foot up, like the curve in the figure six, and turning it inward. The member was useless. A rapid incision lays bare the tendons; both are slit lengthwise and the four halves cut literally, but not at opposite points. ‘ “More ether, Doc, he's feeling this.” Skilfully the two long ends in each tendon are fastened together, thus lengthening it; there is a quick snapat the stiffened joint. . “Wait, doctor, his pulse is a little shy; there, now, he’s all right.” The leg is straightened at full length, the skin closed over and sewed, the member bound th antiseptic dressings, the cone removed, a weak“,little cur barks, “Where am 1?”” and presently some steels are returned to that case, shining from their disinfecting bath. !

of metal now commonly used in larger guns is about 50,000 pounds per square inch, and in the smaller guns it-runs as high as 75,000 pounds per square inch. This, however, is used only as an addi‘tional margin of safety, largely because the recoil of guns when fired is so great now, and the reaction thereby set up in the carriage is so severe that nothing would be gained by lightening the gun. Lightening the gun, says the Scientific American, would only mean putting additional weight, and perhaps a weight greater than that saved, in the guncarriage and foundation. Many are of the opinion that the advance in the strength of gun steel should be pushed further, but it would be hard to do this without lowering to some extent the elongation asked for in the metal at rupture. This now runs in the neighborhood of 18 to 25 per cent., and it could wisely be lowered for the sake of gaining a harder and stronger metal, because the entire operation of the gun is within its elastic limit. When it moves outside of this and becomes permanently enlarged, a comparatively slight enlargement would give warning, and the gun would be laid aside and not used any more. o ;

Fusan is the principal port of southern Corea, and should war be declared hetween Russia and Japan, it would be the principal harbor of thye Japanese navy. The Russians now occupy the port of Masanpho, located Just 20 miles from Fusan. Japan’s advance military base is on fhe island of Tsu-Shima, within easy striking distance of Fusan. One of Japan's -most important demands .upon Russia is the speedy evacuation of Masanpho, but it is hardly likely that this request will be granted, Japan’s ultimate hope, to gain possession of the empire of Corea, will remain greatly menaced as long as Russia holds a Corean port,

Poison Is Extracted from the Wasle Product of Strawboard Mills by Recent Invention.

For several years past there has been a bitter fight between the farmers who reside along the banks of the Sanuusky river below, Tiffin and the American ‘Strawboard company in Tiffin; O. The farmers. claim that the refuse matter from the strawboard mill in Tiffin pollutes the water of the stream, rendering it unfit for use and dangerous for their stock. The strawhoard company has been repeatedly indicted and a number of times convicted and fined for maintaining a nuisance. > | “Necessity is the mother of invention,” and Superintendent Arthur C Van Kirk, ‘of the local plant, believes he has inkvented a device which will make the refuse matter from the mill harmless and save his company many dollars expended in litigation. He has for several years past been working on a machine on which he only a few days ago se’jeured a patent. The machine is similar to the ordinary cream separator, and itakes the poisonous or vegetable matter ‘out of the refuse by means of centrifugal force, thus rendering the refuse matter ‘perfectly’ harmless, so that it can be %éturne_zd into, the stream. The poisonous lor vegetable sxal.ter can be used for fer‘tilizer. 2

SUFFER FROM THIRST

Most Boxers When Training t;or-a Match' Go Through a Painful ; “Drying-out” Process.

During the final days of the period of preparation which Corbett and Hanlon made. for their remarkable battle on the Pacific coast continual reference was made to the ‘““drying-out” prdcess which both men were ‘said to be ufidergoing: There are few patrons of the game, says the , Louisville . Courier-Journal, who realize just what this means, but there

is‘hardl}? a boxer of prominence, aside from those in the simon-pure\?he.@vy-weight class, who has not suffered all the torments of the damned while the “drying-out” is going-on. @

.~ “Drying out! ;ij,s occasioned by the necessity for the fighter to make the weight determined on for the bout, total abstinence from liquids of all sorts being the prime essential in the process. Happy is the fighter who can battle at the standard mark of his class without the Spartan quality in the training, for to him is given a tremendous advantage from the outset. Unfortunately for most boxers, however, men areé not built to weigh in at 112, 122 or 133 pounds and the final two pounds of reduction that is often necessary furnishes a sad feature of the training of at least one fighter in almost every bout. T , _ That Altered the Case.. Dr. Samuel Johnson, one time on a visit to Oxford, and after breakfast he and his host were walking in the garden when the latter stooped down and, pulling up a handful of weeds, ‘threw them -over into a neighbor’s garden. “That, sir,” said the doctor, “is a very unneighborly action,” to which the host replied: “My neighbor’ doctor, 1s a ‘dissenter.” “In that case I have no objection to offer, sir,” returned the doctor. . ?
