Lonesorne Job Is That of Lighthouse Keeper
Ours is considered to be a good station; a coneshaped rock separnted from our ‘wives ashore by just one m/ue of turbulent sea, ' e Every man has two homes: there are excellent houses on the island with plenty of accom'modation for wives and familles. But some years ago the wisdom of Irish Lights decided that we were Detter apart, and provided ‘“‘shore” houses for our families. We go there in the relief spells, wind and weather permitting. It is better 8o for the childrem, who can go to school, and better for the wives, who sre ne louger cut off from the world. : : We three lonesome men on the rock are thoroughly sick of the sight of each other’s faces. We bave.far too much of our own c¢ompany. There is not a surprise ‘posslgble among us. fi‘or long periods we (exchange never a word. L {
In every way a woman as constant companion {s infinitely to be preferred. At any rate I have never grown used to. my wife or ‘tired of her in this way; perhaps because in 13 years I have never had a chance.
We are handy men; for our wives we can do almost anything‘—mend clocks, make or mend clothes, dhairs and -tables, toys and mats. Any one of us can cook and serve up the'joint of meat passably, after the manger of men, The rest of our cooking is done mainly with & can opener. . One of the reasons why this is a de sirable station, i because we can get a weekly joint of meat and post, and regular relief. At the Skelligs, off the coast of Kerry, rightly selected by the monks of old as a- safe refuge from women, we sometimes lived for weeks and months,on rabbits and sea fowl. We had, luckily, a cocker spaniel who would catch a rabbit on.request. - . By the aid of a glass we can see plainly from this rock the front doors of our homes across the water. - The whitewash is rubbed off our landward wall, and there i 3 a groove on the top of it. There are ne dilapldations on the seaward wall. o - .
Only once have I know& a man who Joined ' the lights to -get away from women. Soon, by marriage, he did his best to return to one of them.—Light Keeper, in London Mall, Unstinct of Bees Bees are remarkable for the possession of instinetive qualities that fit them for almost every emergency of their lives, but in some circumstances their instinet falls to protect them. A writer in an agricultural paper says that in northern MaSsgchusetts there is more loss of bees from flying 'in " chilly weather than from any other cause. Bees that fly in freezing temperature, or when it is too cold for them to fly except for a short distance, seldom survive to get back to the hive, he says. His remedy to discourage the bees from going out when the weather Is cold or snow is on the ground is to shade the hive from the direct rays of the sun. Unless this is done they apparently think summer Is coming and it is time for them to be on the wing.—Outlook Magazine, > : : '~ Electricity on Farms - Fourteen Minnesota farms have been provided with every known electrically operated household or laborsaving - device, without cost to the farmer, in a three-year test supervised by professors .of the agricultural college of the University. of Minnesota to determine whether it is practical to use electricity on farms. The farms are in the Mississippi river wvalley, near Red Wing, Minn., and about twenty miles south of Twin Cities. They. are situated along a trial power line which measures 6.2 miles. The farm homes are being equipped wlith electric ranges, washing machines, manglers,. toasters and other devices, The farmyard is to be equipped with electrically operated cream separators, milking machines, feed grinders, conveyors, thrashing machines -and wood-sawing machines. - '
* Natural Thought He wore a long-tailed coat, a frock tie and a stiff hat that marked him as a small-town aristoerat of the old school. At the hotel he strolled around the lobby with an air of ownership that was very impressive. But in a three days’ stay not a nickel had been scattered among the help and the word has spread fast that the colonel was not all that he seemed to be. e He had just had his “boots” shined, and as the boy brushed him off, he remarked: : “George, what would you think if 1 gave you 50 cents for this shine?” George answered right up: : “Ah would think you wanted fo'ty cents change, suh.”—Kansas City Star. i - History of Candy : It is impossible to say when candy as such was first used. The word “candy” was orignally derived from Sanskrit “khanda,” meaning ‘“break.” In one sense candy is as old as the use of extracted sugar. Sugar was probably first manufactured in India, whence it was introduced into Arabia, and through the Moors spread to Spain and the rest of Europe. But the manufacture of candy in the modern sense is comparatively new. Candy was used in England in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth centuries when it wasg prescribed by apothecaries and physiclans to disguise the taste of medicine and drugs. It was over a century later that it became wlidely used as a sweetmeat and confection. :
