THE TACE THAT KILLS.
A woman who has delighted thouraiids
of audiences?an actress?is dying
in an eastern city because of?
The pace that kills.
The woman wants to die. There is
nothing to live for. Possibly she would
commit suicide, only she is intelligent
enough to know that to hasten her
going would not straighten out tho
tangle of her life?only complicate it.
The pace that kills.
There Is no denying It has Its allurements.
Tread the primrose path of
dalliance. Chase the) winged butterfly.
Platen to the patter of the fountains.
Watch the dryads dance. Eat, drink
and be merry, llo, for the short life
?? n I%r\?r f
211 lli I in: IIUl'l'J
The pace that kills.
There's pleasure In the pace. Oh,
yes! Lift high tho cup of life and
drain it to the dregs. On with the Joy
rides! What is life but a thing to conjure
with? Give us that which brightens
the eye and brings tho Hush to
tho cheek and livens the feet and stirs
the blood of passion.
Go the pace!
Aye, but there's the rub. It kills!
By and by tho eyes that shone with
pleasure will bo bleary; by and by the
glow of cheek will turn to pallor; the
hand that, without a tremor save of
joj\ raised the cup will tremble In
Its palsy, and tho feet that gayly
tripped the measure of the dance will
shuttle 011 the lloor.
It kills!
Some day tho rivers of fancy will
lose their runnels in tho desert sands
of life; some day the mirage that lures
will rise and fade away. Disillusionment
will come. And some day ambition
and hope and heart and peace
will go. Some day the money will go
and there will bo tho added pinch of
poverty.
Tho paco docs not kill Its victim in a
day. Would it might!
Slowly, insidiously, gross habits will
build a prison house around tho soul
and life will bo narrowed down. The
senses will fail to please. In satiety
and bondage goes the last quarter of
the homo stretch.
Tho paco that kills.
It is inexorable. If you dance 3*011
must pa3' the tiddler. And the pay is
wrung most cruelly?by piecemeal!
It is written in the good old book:
1 4 - a ? At. li ? 1 II .1t? ft
j ne soui i iiiit suiiuhii it snun uiu.
Tho word is truo not because it is in
the book, but it is in the book because
it is true! It states the unvarying law
of things?as unvarying ns the law of
mathematics. If you go tho pace you
die.
Tho pace kills.
HOW MANY COURTSHIPS?
Every man ought to have two courtships
in Ills existence, the first, of course,
when lie Is winning: his wife. Then should
come the years of struggle In making
money to support her and their children.
Then he ought to go back to courting his
wife again and showing Ills children how
good a father can be.
That is tho advice of James A. Patron.
i tie* bi? onim?trn grain speculator,
given In an interview rvnu we tho
reasons why he quit tho board of
trade.
We bog to amend.
Instead of having two courtships, a
man should have hut one and that one
continuous.
Why should a man bury his affection
in the grave of big business and resurrect
it only after he has been successful
In his chase after dollars?
Suppose that In the interim while he
Is Immersed In business the wife
whom he has neglected should die?
Wives do that sometimes.
Dejected, lonely, yearning f >r affection,
many a heartsick wife has gone
to an early grave, and there is no more
courting of her save at the coflin side,
where the ears are dumb to the message
of love and the lips can no longer
smile response.
Suppose the wife, neglected and
practically forsaken, left without husbandly
attention, should turn in her
despair for consolation to another.
That may mean disgrace or a divorce
court scandal, and there are no more
courtships coming.
For Dirtlier particulars read the
newspapers.
Or suppose the children should die,
Mr. Fatten, awaiting the time when
you can show them "how good a father
you can be."
No. The man Is wrong, oven though
he Is frank in saying what so many
business men are doing nowadays to
their oft time sorrow and regret.
Better advice would be: Never cease
courting the girl you have married,
even if you must let go some of the
paltry dollars.
Which shall it ho:
More money and less love?
Or more love and less money?
Why. sir, all the gold of the Yukon
and all the diamonds of the Transvaal
can never repay you for the lost opportunity
to love and bo loved.
HE KILLED HER.
A young woman of Peoria, 111., committed
suicide in her room at a hotel
by shooting herself.
She had been taken to the hotel by
her lover, to whom she had surrendered
her honor und all that a woman
holds dear, on a promiso of marriage.
He took her to the room to tell her
that he was to bo married to another
young woman and that their intimacy
must cense. Then he left her.
The shock killed her.

* FUNGOUS POTATOES.
Old Diieaa* That la Cauaad by Too
Much Wot Weather.
Last July and early in August we
bad considerable wet weather. The
potato tops suffered badly from a
| blight However, the vino recovered
sufficiently to mature n fair crop. All
through the winter the query wus.
"What makes the cooked potato have
such a sweet taste?" And again on
cutting the tuber a brownish streak
or blotch appears all through the tuber,
resembliug a marble cake. This
Is sented mostly beneath where the
eyes are and about one-eighth of an
inch from ttie surface. The potato
shows no outward sign of disease except
that the eyes do uot push as rapidly
on a diseased potato as they do
on one free from it. These streaks are
about ono inch long ana one-rourui
inch wide.
The query was, "What caused ttint
peculiar streaking in the tuberV" In
looking over a history of fungoids and
fungous disease of tlie potato we find
that a very similar condition existed
in Ireland in 184ft, resulting in a great
potato famine there. That year was
a very wet year, and the natural moist
climate of Ireland gave a great im
petus to this disease. It has not reappeared
to any great extent till last
year. It bears no resemblance to the
potato scab either on the tuber or the
foliage. In this disease the leaves turn
a brownish black color and drop off.
while the stalk or stem may retain
some vitality even to sending out du
plicate leaves, though much smaller
The disenso is. however, carried down
to the tuber and is seen there as described.
In dry seasons or in dry sections
no alarm need be felt as to the
disense spreading, but in low moist
sections care should be exercised.
Affected tubers should by no means
bo planted. Varieties resisting blights
In general are safer for planting so
as to bo sure that this peculiar blight
gets no hold. In some parts of Europe
It is bad. and no doubt but that
it has been introduced into tills country
from there. A few years ago we
received from England some varieties,
but nothing wrong was noticed at that
time. Should the disense appear on
the foliage sprayings of bordeaux
should be given every ten or twelve
days through the season.?Natioual

GROWING ENGLISH WALNUTS.

however, who have ever seen Eng
llsh walnuts growing. A Boston Globe
correspondent sent in two photographs
of walnut trees of the English variety
raised in this country, with a note
from the raiser of the nuts, Norman
Poineroy of Lock port. N. Y.
"Few people realize," wrote Mr.
Pomeroy, "that English walnuts can

be grown extensively in the eastern
part of the United States, and only by
the merest accident was it found that
they could be. My father, Norman
Poineroy, visited the Centennial exposition
and, noticing a tree in the yard ,
where lie boarded at Philadelphia
bearing nuts, gathered about a pock
of them and brought them borne with
him. Some children found a small
hole In the corner of the valise and
got out all the nuts but seven. Those
he planted, and they sent up shoots !
that grew into fine large trees, which ;
bore well. Some more trees were
raised from this acclimated stock, and
we now have a tine young orchard, j
Quite a number of our neighbors also
raise walnuts from this stock."
Purpose of Stirring Soil.
A newly stirred soil admits the airto
the roots, conserves moisture and
prevents the growth of weeds. Every
shower tends to seal up tho surface
and exclude the air. So aim to stir
up the soli after every rain.
Little More Than a Bushel.
A box 10 by 18 by 7^ Inches Inside
measurement holds a little over a
bushel of fruit. It has a cubical content
of 2,100 cubic inches, whereas
a standard bushel requires but 2,150.42
cubic Inches.
A Good Investment.
Beautiful home grounds are an investment,
just as good fences, drain
age, etc., are. They add to the value
of the farm and to the happiness of
tho family.
