After he ( passes it through the test and shells ^ it go over carefully pick out r every grain that seems to be doubt- t ful. Pick by hand, just like pick- a ing rice for diuner. ? After this is done prepare some . Boiling water and place as much as a day's or a half day's planting in au old metalic bucket that is well ? worn or if not well worn ? a punch holes in the bottom ? sufficient for the hot water to run t through. Pour the boiling water * on the corn and stir it with a stick u until the water ruus out. A surer ? plan is to follow the hot water with ti some cold water, so as not to kill I the life in the grain. to If this is a new thing with you it is better to prepare some and see if 8| it will come up. My son killed n some a few years ago. He poured II the water on it and let it stand un- d: tc til it became cold and very few grains came up. ine piau suggested aoove win not hurt and you will be surprised to ^ see how healthy the corn will more off when planted and how little of it will be destroyed by insects. ^ I have been convinced for years that we plant the insect with the jjj corn that gives us most trouble. ^ 'This is my own plan which I have tried for years and last year I had a fiue stand ot corn while my neigh- j,1 ? bors were replanting and some even planted a second time. ^ Try it and if it doesn't suit you .<-??? ^ Hill tf l^Uil (U > VUiO UUII) T E James. y? .Leo, February 24,1908.

They look for the little t ws rather than the staring ones. nlike the English and American detectives, they often do not wait to get irrefutable evidence before charging a man with crime, but first charge him with the crime and play upon him so that if he is guilty he is led to? confess. Some time ago a woman was murdered in Paris, and from her room were stolen 750 francs in money, her watch and jewelry. Two brothers, George and Paul Amot, had been seen near the house. The night of the day after the murder was committed M. Ilamard, chief of detectives of Paris, entered a wine shop where the two brothers were drinking. To the man's amazement he arrested George, charging him with the murder. ''You have changed your coat," he said to the man, a safe guess if he had committed the murder. "It < was gray this morning, and there is blood on it." "My nose was bleeding," replied the man. "From excitement, I suppose," , 6aid Barnard, "excitement caused , by your robbery of Mme.

In military music the march occupies a prominent position and has been employed not only to stimulate courage, but also from about the middle of the seventeenth century to insure- the orderly advance oi troops.

In England the military march was of somewhat later development. Sir John Hawkins m his "History of Music" tells us that its characteristic was dignity and gravity, in which respect it differed greatly from the French, which was brisk and alert. And apropos ci this subject the same author notes a witty reply of an Elizabethan soldier to the French Marshal Biron's remark that "the English march, , being beaten by the drum, was slow, j heavy and sluggish." "That may ! be true," he said, "but slow as it is J it has traversed your master's coun?- ! try from one end to the other."? ; Chambers'" Journal. Th# Old Matters.

Leonardo, who acted as his assistant, received the same wage. Correggio received less than $10 for his "Christ In the Garden," while Carracci's "Resurrection" brought its painter still less. Albert Durer was seldom paid in cash for his pen and ink portraits. A bag of flour, a pair of boots or some such equivalent satisfied him. Rembrandt, "the mightiest genius," received as his highest price under $500 for his "Night Watch." Valesquez worked chiefly for the Spanish government. He was paid on an average $35 a picture.
