(5 The ConraK ol KlKhtinc Billy. Fighting Billy lay face to the earth in a tent. With n ffuard pacing by. The luvt of the liquor within him was spent, And what was there left but to die? He was willing for that, but not, not by the shot Of his comrades to fall, Nor his proud name erased from th rolls by 1 blot, And dishonor the sum of it all. Fig-hting -Billy lay face to the earth in a tent, With a ruard pacing by. But court martials waited, for battle had rent A rift in the clouds of his sky. He lifted his head as an officer passed. "One farr, sir, one! One favor, the first I have asked, and the last, Release for the day and a gun." The old colonel halted. "Well, Billy, my lad. You'll find old Tap Thomas Is looking for fighters to-day, good or bad. Go I die or come back ! it's a promise." Chickamauga was raging, and Billy's blood leaped Like a tigerish thing. lie filliped at death where the dying were heaped, lie offered its breast to its stlns. Cut the shell turned away, and the bullet sped wide, Till there came an advance. And a brother in arms whispered close at his side, . "Flo, Billy, my boy, here's your chance ! "Charge ahead at the word, and forget to come back. A dozen good men , Will swear you were 'captured while leading attack,' And a fig for the court martial then." For a moment the blood smothered close at his heart And deserted his face. As he fought the temptation which rose at the smart Of the thought of his waiting disgrace. Then "Forward!" and wildly he led the attack. And then? Did he lag? Did he throw down his gun? Or who was it brought back An enemy's shot-tattered flag? lie was there when the court martial's verdict was read. "Guilty!" that was the word. "On every count guilty." The hard thing was said. And a murmur of sympathy stirred. As Billy stepped out and surrendered his gun. Grained grit, through and through. "There is only one thing I regret, sir. That one Is that 'Guilty,' God help me. is true." And then came the sentence. "The prisoner mart, Till his service shall end, Be as valiant in arms and as true to his trust As to-day. For the rest, we commend "The pardon his soldierly conduct has earned. And his colonel requests."" And never was lesson more thoroughly learned. As he proved in a hundred tests. And when men would boast of the bloody affray And the daring attack. "I was brave only once In my life," he would say, "And that was the time I turned back." Youth's Companion. Glory of Qainlne. The major was a gallant officer In :he Confederate service. Indeed, he Is mentioned in the army records as having been something of an Insplrer of oicii where desperate chances were to be taken. There were a good many kinds of des peration In the Southern ranks that were little known to the boys In blue, ifter whose comfort, welfare and health a powerful government looked with such soliictude as it might. It Is Due thing to be footsore, wounded, or down with break-bone fever where n well stored commissariat, a government imply able to replenish the supplies tvhen needed and a large corps of skill pd physicians and surgeons are at hand. It Is quite another thinjf to licet with the same afflictions while fighting In the ranks where poverty's ghastly hand withholds Jior only food but medical skill and medical supplies as well. This was the condition of af fairs in the divisions of the Southern army to which the major belonged. " The men were not unusually hungry, They hnd become quite accustomed to 6hort rations. There was not an un due proportion of wounded sufferers; but break bone fever had settled like n pall over the entire camp; and the peculiar form of desperation engender ed by this fact was what might be called a quinine mania. Th?re was nothing the men would not do to get quinine. Some of them had been kuown to steal the carefully hoarded ounce, held more precious than dla mondH. by some isolated country fanil ly. Others had obtained It by dire threats fron even those whom they were protecting, and men who were known as perfectly respectable had re sorted to devices for obtaining the cov rted drug that would bring a flood of crimson to their cheeks were It record ed against them now. This was the state of affairs when the battle of which I speak took place. where the gallant major won dlstlnc tion by means of the circumstance and the particular type of genius which en abled hfcn to take advantage of and turn to account a calamitous condition of things. Just at that time they were In Ar kansas and the fever, malignant at all times, was holding high carnival. Men who were accustomed to the climate were doggedly desperate and those to whom it was comparatively a new experience were In despair. Kverj-body was sick and almost everybody was sullen. In short, It was a particularly Inopportune moment to ask for brave deeds or expect to find heroes. There was a pretty brisk skirmish going on which merged Itself Into a battle later in the day. The Confeder ates were lodging and firing or lying on their arms according to the orders given In a dogged and half-dead con dition. They obeyed orders as a ma

chine might If the machine was pretty nearly worn out. The ofilcer in command tried to rouse them in vain. He shoutetl to thorn of '.ory but the fever cursed men had no yearning to be glorbuis Just then. He dashed along the line and tried to Inspire them with he Idea that tue protection of the homes of the South from all sorts of dire disaster and disgrace rested upon their shoulders alone. The men, shaken with ague, fixed their thoughts not upon homes, but upon the empty drug stores of their beloved land and felt that home would be a mockery with empty quinine bottles. One officer shouted a brief speech to the reserves to the effect that this was to be the turning point of the war, and that the success or failure of the Con

federacy rented upon them und thm alone. 'The meu sat or lay suiieuly before him, and no gleam of enthuslt.sm stirred them. Only the steady, awful shake of break-bone fever occupied heir minds. The Confederacy was a dream. This was reality. The Yan kees were far off. Each man clutched to his own breast the terrible enemy. The officers were In despair. No one could win a battle with men Ro indifferent and so sullen as these. At last a happy thought struck the mnjor. He clashed along the line with fresh news from the front. He told the company ofLceTs that which put new life Into them. The word was swiftly passed along the line from man to man as tby lay in the reserve line. The effect was magical. Every man prepared with that vim and energy which means success to obey the next command. A battery had for a long time held for the Northern troops the vantage ground. Behind that ugly battery were the supply wagons of the Federal army. The major had sent out word that those wagons had Just ar rived, laden with quinine! That was enough. When the command was given to charge not a man failed him, not a man was too 111 to reach over breastworks and cannon the one thing that c.l wanted. So when the major dashed out in front with uplifted sword and shouted: "Charge! Charge, boys! Give the Yankees fits, and charge for quinine!" his ranks were full, and not a man stopped of his own free will un til he was in the enemy's rear. A good many there were who stopped short of this, It Is true; poor fellows who needed quinine no longer, and only left the more for the comrades who captured the battery and gallantly saved the day. So says history and history Is right as to facts. But as to the motive for this gallant, and desper ate charge history is Klient, and glory, not quinine, Is erroneousl supposed to have been the-inspiring stimulus with which the major in some mystcrous way infused his men at the last mo ment. Taking Ills Choice. The proffering of the Union oath of allegiance to' the people of Tennessee In the Infected districts, proved a se vere experlmentum crucis to the pro fessed patriotism of some of the ieoplc the.re. As a specimen of the amusing scenes witnessed in the provost mar shal's office, the following will illus träte the "situation": A surly planter presented himself, desiring to transfer himself or his goods to the North. "Certainly, sir," responded the mar shal, "you will be obliged to take the oath of alleglauce to the United States government." After some hesitation, and consider able Inward squirming, the applicant gruffly remarked: "Well, I'll take it." The oath was propounded. As it was read out, the applicant's face assumed an expression of mingled surprise and indignation, almost sublime in Its In tensity. "Why, sir, I can not take that oath It compels me to discountenance and discourage secession forever." "Yes, sir." "And then it binds me to maintain the national authority over that of my own State. No, sir, I can not take thai oath." "Very well, sir, there is no compul slou in the matter. But uutll you do, I shall be obliged to refuse you permls sion to leave town or to ship or receive goods by the river." Worth Heading.

The prisoners are much pleased with the work, and their employment Is nn Incentive to others to behave well in prison. Many of the Japanese porcelain fac tories, it is said, are not paying ex penses, and production has been re duced by 30 to 40 per cent. In Tsu Maki-Mura twenty-eight of the eighty porcelain factories have suspended, owing to the decrease in American and Chinese Imports. Out of forty-two blast furnaces 1e Belgium only thirty-one are at present In operation, as compared with thirtysix at this time a year ago. The output of pig iron for twenty-four hours comprises,; Four furnaces, 390 tons of forge pig; three, 200 tons of foundry pig; and twenty-four, 2,858 tons of Bessemer and basic pig.

Valao of Trap XeMs. To become convinced of the amount of good there is In trap nests, one must use them. ' He will then find out for a certainty which of his hens are laying well and which are not. Terhaps he will be surprised to learn that some of the best egg producers he has tire apparently his poorest specimens. This Is quite likely to happen, for not by any means Is It always the finestlooking hens the hens which would score highest in the 6how pen that will lay the most eggs. Needless to say, the best layers only should be kept. If a flock Is disgraced by egg-eaters, the trap nest will pick the guilty ones out, likewise the drone, so that the flock may be culled until only profitable stock Is left. As but one hen can be present at a time to lay, It also does away with crowding and quarreling. whereby the danger of breaking the eggs in the nest is lessened. It Indicates, too, which hens are the winter layers, the layers of the most fertile eggs, the most symmetrical ones and the brown, the white aud the speckled ones. At the same time It necessi tates frequent handling by taking the hens off the nest, so that even the wildest birds become more tame, and are less likely to scare. Summed up briefly, it enables the breeder to get lu touch with the individual hen, ascer tain her good and bad qualities, and satisfy himself of her general condition. The only objection that can be lalsed against it, any 'ray, is that It requires a lot of attent on. The nests want visiting every other hour, at least, and every hour would be better, through the day.. For the shiftless poultryman, therefore, they are ha idly to be recommended. Agricultural Epltomist. night of (he Hired Sinn. A little thought and a little "put yourself in his place" would do wonflers in solving the problem of "How to keep the hired man on the farm." Of course there are many worthless fel lows strolling r.bout the country looking for Jobs as farm hands, and any employer is liable to got one of thorn. On the other hand, th"re nre many employers who treat their men in such a manner that no self-respecting young man would remain in their service. As a rule the hand who goes at his work cheerfully and docs not complnln If a. little extra Job eouics his way. Is the man who can always find a place at the best wages going, while the one wo grumbles at his regular work and flatly refuses to do an extra task is always moving from place to place. The employer who is considerate to his men, who does not impose upon them by word or deed, Is the one who can al ways get good men, and he seldom has ;o hunt them up. The hired man Is entitled to a good bed and comfortable room, with a place for his clothing. lie is entitled to good, wholesome food, and, above all, he Is entitled to decent treatment and kind words.

American Farm World. Frolt AVrapplntf Machine. A fruit wrapping machine has been jut in operation in California. It requires practically no attention and entirely automatically wraps the fruit, says Country Gentleman. The fruit rolls down a slight incline to the oper ator, turning slowly over as It np ;roaches him and giving him an oppor hmlty to remove defective specimens. The fruit Is lifted and placed stem up in rubber cups, which carry It to a me chanism operating much as the human hands. It Is carried to the paper being ?ut ami printed from the roll. Tho rwist of the paper Is made over the stem pnd, thus cushioning the stem and pre venting puncture Injury. If the ma chine becomes clogged, It is stopped by t clutch operated by electricity. A counting attachment registers the num ber wrapped. The capacity of the ma hlne Is said to equal six good wrappers. EffK Cans n Fend. In a town in northwestern Missouri a factional flght has been started over a dozen eggs that promises to end In & killing or two. Already there have been a dozen fights over the matter Last winter when eggs were worth 24 cents a dozen a woman borrowed that number from a neighbor. Last week ehe returned the eggs, but the price had dropied to 12 cents. The nelghlwr demanded an extra dozen to make up the difference In price. The borrower re fused and the feud was on. Meanwhile tLcro is a lively demand for firearms at the hardware store. Robber from Skim Milk. A wonderful discovery has been made by George W. Frye, of Lexington, Ohio, by which a solid substance hav ing th qualities of rubber can be pro duced from skim milk. While passing electric currents through milk to sterilize It Mr. Frye found a soft, white, elastic substance, rrobably the casein which has resulted In a product that he calls omsite. Sixteen pounds of omsite can be produced from 100

iKuinds of skim milk, the latter having a market value of 8 cents for lw) pounds. Omsite Is said to be impervious to acids, unaffected by heat 01 cold, an absolute nonconductor of electricity, fireproof and practically indestructible. Field and Farm.

Th Farmers' Irosperlr No better evidence of the prosperity of those engaged in agricultural pur suits is needed than to witness the showing of wealth at the various Stat fairs this season. Chicagoans who at tended the annual shows at Iowa. Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky have returned with the most cheering reports of prosperity in the farming districts as was well shown iy the increased attendance at each of the State fairs R3 compared with recent years. Practically all of the State shows this year had greater numbers of rural visitors trfan hava ever attended before. Were the farmers a little pinched for money doubtless many of them would have remained away from their State fairs, viewing a few days' study and pleasure as a luxury which they could not afford. This ye.ir, however, the farmers turned out In record numbers, and spent more money than in former years. Goodall's Farmer. Valuable In th Ice House. This Is a storehouse, 4 to G feet square, in the ice house, or of any con venient size for the milk and butter. The room should be provided with a ventilator at the top. The doors lead ing to the room should each have a sash at the top. The sketch shows only the inside door. The house proper COXVErSlEJiT STOREHOUSE. is built with walls, the space being filled with sawdust. The dotted lines show the outline of the Ice when the house is filled. If sawdust is piled upon and around the storeroom it :nakes a fine place to store vegetables or fruits. Sheep Are Not Stupid. The sheep Is usually set down for a model of stupidity, but a gentleman who has Just returned from a three years' trip in the West tells the fol lowing story: "I was on horseback a great part of the time and often visit ed large sheep ranches. One day, while riding a'ong, a mother sheep trotted up toward my horse, bleating pitifully, At last I made out that there was something wrong off toward the left I followed the sheep in that direction and soon round tue cause or her dis tress. Her lamb had fallen Into i shallow pit and could not get out. lifted the little thing up, and the grutl tude of the mother sheep's eyes wi'l always be a source of consolation tc me." Hilly Orchard Land, A certain rough section in Penn syivania tLat nas nitnerto been re garded as of little value, for any purpose, has been found to be well suited to the production of apples, and the farmers there have been induced to engage In orchard planting In a wholesale way, being assured that the business will pay largely. We have much rouch ly, hilly land In several of our south era counties that ought to be used In the same way. Indiana Farmer. Town aud Country Kickers. The kickers on the farm are not so hard to get along with as the kickers In town. On the farm there is the kicking cow, and our long-eared friend the mule, while In town there Is the old mossback who wants all the municipal improvements without paying for them. The cow may be sold for beef, the mule may be traded for a shotgun, but nothing but a funeral will get rid of the town kicker. Farmersvllle (Tex.) Times. AVha Slerlllted 9111k Is. What is sterilized milk and what fire its advantages? V. W. II. W., Virginia. The milk is sterilized by steam, which heats it to about 150 degrees and after that it Is cooled down with a cooler. This is called pasteurizing. It Is heated to a point that kills all germ life and then cooled. It sometimes gives the milk a cooked flavor. The Useful Sunflower. Sunflower seeds are 6ald to give an extra fine flavor to eggs and are much used by the French people for that purpose. Remember this when you plant your garden and drop in some seeds around the edges and in the odd corners. A few planted near the sink drain will help to keep away miasma and give you heads of seed that will be mammoth in size. Practical Farm Note. Don't fail to cut out and burn any canes Infested by Insects and diseases. Cabbage club foot may be prevented by a liberal application of lime to tbe soil around the plant A four year rotation, grain, clover, corn and corn, works very satisfactory on small fields for hogs, as II gives twice as much corn as pasture which Is about the proportion used. It Is a mistake to plow under soy beans or cow peas for fertilizer. They are too expensive. Better use barnyard manure as far as possible, grow a crop of clover and then turn under the sod. Have you ever noticed that men who are the most successful farmers stick to the crops they know most about, making a specialty of them? The man who experiments with every new thing that comes along will find It expensive business. Measure hay In the stack this way: Measure the stack in length, width and over. Multiply the width In feet by the over and divide by four. Then multiply the result by length. To reduce to ton of hay in stack less than twenty days, divide the cubical contents by 512. For more than twenty and less than sixty days divide bj 422, and for more than sixty days divide by m

Xo Store Run-Down Heela. Tol icemen, actors and other pedestrians should drink a toast to a man In Australia, for he has come forward with a device that will lengthen the life of a shoe many months. This device is an Interchangeable heel which locks to a heel pad by means of pins attached to the iatter. Probably the chief cause of a shoe 5EW II EEU losing its shape and wearing out in the uppers Is the running down of the heel, which throws the foot to one side and brings a strain on a part of the shoe not prepared for It. Run-down heels. too, are responsible for many cases of sore feet and have aided largely in making the business of chiropody a lucrative one. "With this new device It will be possible to take off an old heel and rut on a new one whenever the first Is so worn as to be uncomfortable or unsightly. If people only realize the Importance of a flat heel there would be few limps in the world of walkers. Mint Jellr. Many persons like anything of a food variety containing gelatine, and the usual meat Jellies contain such, but a splendid jelly to serve with cold or warm meat Is a mint Jelly, the bulk made with apples. Cook the apples the same as for apple Jelly, strain the Jviee and add a handful of crushed mint Boll until the flavor Is extracted, strain twice and add the same amount of sugar and boil until a thick Jelly Is formed. Grape Juice can be flavored In the same manner, and also cranberry Juice, which is really delicious when Qavored with fresh mint Corn Salad. Eight large ears of sweet corn, three large onions, one small head, of cabbage, me bunch of celery, three red peppers (the seeds taken out without touching the walls of the peppers), one-fourth of a cup of salt, a quart and a pint of cider vinegar, two heaping teaspoonfuls of mustard, dissolved and stirred in last. Chop all the Ingredients except the corn, boil together twenty minutes, add the mustard and can boiling hot. Canned corn might be used if one could not get the green. French Panned Oysters. Drain twenty-five good sized oysters, rub an ounce of butter to a smooth paste with a teaspoonful flour and a teaspoonful minced parsley. Place in a stew pan or chafing dish with the oysters, add a pinch of cayenne and seasoning salt and stir and cook until the gills begin to curl; then add the yolk of an egg and, still stirring, pour the oysters over some nicely toasted squares of bread and serve at once. Grape Catsup. N Wash and stem tart grapes, cook until tender and rub through a colander. To every three pints of pulp allow one pound of brown sugar, one cupful of vinegar, a heaping teaspoonful each of ground cinnamon, mace, allspice, salt and pepper and a half teaspoonful of ground cloves. Cook steadily, stirring "frequently until the catsup is reduced to half its original quantity and is thick. Bottle and cork when cold. Oliva Oil Tickles. . One gallon of peeled and sliced cucumbers, mixed with a cup of salt Stand for three hours, then drain and mix with three onions, peeled and chopIed, and 1 ounce each of white mustard seed, black peppers and celery seed, and pack the mixture into glass Jars, pressing It down firmly. Pour Into the Jars (dividing it equally) a half pint of the best olive oih Cover with cold cider vinegar and seal. Variety Tickle. One gallon cabbage, half pint green peppers, half gallon green tomatoes, one quart onions, all chopped. Three tablespoons ground mustard, 2 tablesioons ginger, 1 ounce tumeric, 1 ounce celery seed, 2 pounds 6iigar, half gallon vinegar, a little salt, half pint lima beans cooked well. Mix and cook thirty minutes. Vanilla Crabapple Jelly. When putting up crabapple Jelly get 10 cents' worth of vanilla beans from any drug store. When the Juice Is strained and measured throw in the piece of vanilla bean and let It boil until jelly Is made. It gives apple Jelly a fine and delicious flavor. Toppers Stuffed With Cheese. Take, "green pepiers, seed and boll ten minutes In water In which has been put a pinch of soda. Fill with grated cheese, dtp in water and fry In hot lard. Short Sue&estloits. Cold cereals can be fried the same as mush; serve with gravy or 6lrup. Nickel may be kept bright by being rubbed with wool saturated in ammonia. Alcohol and whiting make a good silver polish excellent for polishing plate glass mirrors. Black lead mixed with vinegar will be found to give a specially good polJsh to the kitchen stove. To raise the pile on plush, sponge it with a little chloroform and It will look fresh and new again. A piece of flannel dampened with spirits of camphor will remove stains from mirrors or window glass. Nails used in bathrooms and kitchens on which damp cloths and towels may be hung, should be dipped In enamel, so that they may not leave rusty marks. To cover the pan in which fish is cooking will make the flesh soft Honey should be kept in the dark. If exposed ( light it will quickly granulate. To clean sliver, mix sweet oil and whiting to the thickness of a cream, put on with a soft cloth, wash in hot soap suds and polish with a chamois skin or a piece, of old soft linen. A cheap floor stain, which will probably be In demand during house cleaning, Is made by dissolving a teaspoonful of permanganate of rotash in ona quart of boiling water. A darker or lighter aaln may be had by Increasing or decreasing the amount of potash.

THE ROAD TO WEALTH.

It la h First Thousand That Counts and la Hardest to Get. "The thing that counts," said a man of independently large means accumulated by hard work, saving and wise investments, "is the first thousand Dollars. When you've got that amount together you are beginning to get some- J where, and with that start yon will want to keep on. The red ink interest ertries that you see put down in your savings bank book twice a year will strike you very pleasantly Indeed. As Interest on your thousand dollars you'll get $35 or $40 In a year; your m-ney has begun earning money for you. "You've got an income now and you'll want to add to It You will leave that interest in the bank to be added to jour principal, and now your Interest rill begin to draw Interest, and to be eure you will keep right on adding to jour principal, too, and every six months you'll see those red figures growing bigger and bigger, pretty figures to contemplate, and you'll keep right along saving.

The latest device in telegraph is a telegraphing tyiewrlter. It can be at tached to and placed under any ordin ary typewriter, 6ays the Electrical World. When po connected It becomes a complete sending and receiving tele graph instrument, and both sendln and receiving instruments record the message. The only experience required Is that of an operator working a typewriter. The message is sent In the same man ner In which you would proceed to write a letter on an ordinary type writer. This same message will be re ceived on the receiving typewriter ex actly as it appears on the sending ona In some respects It resembles the familiar stock ticker and other printing telegraph Instruments, but unlike these it makes possible the use of capital and small letters as in ordinary letter writing. The receiving machine records the message Just as written and gives what corresponds to a carbon copy made on the original machine. There is said to be no chance for mistakes. The machine takes down the message Just as sent. There Is no human receiver to make a mistake by faulty hearingorcarelessness or neglect, as is the case with the present Morse system of dots and dashes in use all over the world.

NOT A MIRACLE Jost Plain Cans and Effeet. There are seme quite remarkable things happening every day, which seem almost miraculous. Some persons would not believe that a man could suffer from coffee, drinking so severely as to cause spells of unconsciousness. And to find complete relief in changing from coffee to Postum Is well worth recording. "I used to be a great coffee drinker, so much so that it was killing me by inches. My heart became so weak I would fall and He unconscious for an hour at a time. The spells caught me sometimes two or three times a day. "My friends, and even the doctor, told me it was drinking coffee that caused the trouble. I would Dot believe it, and still drank coffee until I could not leave my room. "Then my doctor, who drinks Postum himself, persuaded me to stop co.Tce and try Postum. After much hesitation I concluded to try it. That wrs eight months ago. Since then I have- had but few of those spells, none for mre than four months. "I feel better, sleep better and am better every way. I now drink nothing but Postum and touch no coffee, aud aa I am seventy years of age all my friends think the improvement quite remarkable." "There's a Reason."
