These are rather expen?iv? articles of food and can only be used by those who sell their products for almost double the average market price. Such.feeding imparts pleasant flavor that adds value to the turkeys which are finished in this way, and these find ready sale at the highest prices for the table of those with whom cost is a minor consideration Where the scale of prices is regulated solely by quality the finest selected grades will sell from .9 to 12 cents per pound higher than will the lower grades. To grow the best is quite as easy and but little more expensive than to grow the poorer grades, and the profit gained is almost double. . ; Too Owe It To Your Mother. To manifest an interest in whatever interest or amuses her. To seek her comfort and pleasure in all things before you own. Not to forget that, though she i.* "oldand wrinkled, she still loves pretty things. To make her frequent, simple presents and to be sure that they are appropriate and tasteful.

C. b, Hnylers Candy at ^ AH HOW TO ATTAIN OLD AGE. Advice From nn Authority on the Subject of Iiongevilj-, Of the giving of recipes for longevity there is apparently no end. Every man or woman who has readied out far beyond the allotted threescore years and ten is made the subject of an entertaining argument to prove the points of this or that contender. Every abnormality in the shape of strength of arm, of back, of senernl system, is used as an illustration of the virtues of this or that system of exercise or living. It is the opinion of a good many laymen that mankind does entirely too much thinking on the subject of how to live to a .ripe old age. Less worry on this point might lead to the desired result. But there never will be less worry. Even now the list of systems for prolongation of man's days is being augmented. The very latest suggestion comes from a physician of credit and renown. He thinks that there is a very great deal of benefit or of injury in the wearing of certain kinds of clothing. According to this authority, the wearing of flannel next the skin is immensely Injurious to the general run of men and women. Cotton is king, in bis opinion. For summer wear he suggests a calico shirt, while baibriggan cotton is his idea of winter covering. The main point of his theory is the necessity of wearing always the same kind of material next the skin, whether tills be of linen, cotton or wool. Outdoor exercise is highly recommamlwl?thnf is if ovplin? hp PXCPnt ed. Wheeling: is not considered a sane performance by this judge. Hovf to Bake Tripe.

One who says an encouraging word to a disheartened neighbor, gives a look of love to a lonely one* or speaks a sentence which may become strength, guidance, and comfort to another, does something worthwhile. Jt is always worth w:hile to live nobly, victoriously, struggling to do right, showing the world even the smallest fragment of devine beauty. .. .

Tommy felt like crying out with mingled fear and surprise as he saw I Jack hop up on the table beside him, : but his voice seemed to be 6tuck somewhere down in his stomach. Jack said nothing, but pulled a big pair of spectacles from beneath his other wing and opened a large book of notes. Tommy's eyes bulged. "What are you going to do?" he ask ed timidly. "Going: to read you a few helpful rules for climbing trees. Some from my own valuable experience," said Jack, winking one eye nnd turning the pages with his claws. "If you will climb trees, you should know how to do it." "Tbis certainly is queer," thought TOMiTT FELT LIKE CBYXNO. Tommy. "The idea of a rooster teaching me!"
