any doubt as to the curing of the corn,
I let the bundles lie on the ground a
day or two before setting up. No de
vice Is needed to make the shocks stand
up except a little twine.
I plant In check row«, 3 feet 8 inches
each way, and make shocks twenty
bills square, or 400 hills to the shock.
Set up four bundles, placing them well
apart at the bottom, and tie the top;
then set up the corn evenly all around.
When finished, tie again as follows:
With a rope having a ring on one end
draw the shock up tightly; then tie
above the rope with binder twine, aft
erward removing the rope. If this
work is well doue, there will be no

For Fighting Cnbbnge Worms.
Boon we will have trouble with the
cabbage worm, green and striped.
Then spraying, dusting, sprinkling and
torch burning will be in order. Kero
sene emulsion used with a sprayer will
kill the worms and is otherwise harm
less. The same may be said of Persian
insect powder, tobacco powder, etc.
Hot water, even at boiling heat, may
be sprinkled on without damage to
anything but worms, but if the water
is at or near boiling heat a sprinkling
nozzle should be used that has very
fine perforations, and the sprinkler
should be held ata distance of two and
a half to three feet. In passing In flue
streams from sprinkler to cabbage the
water Is sufficiently cooled to prevent
injury to the plants. The gasoline
torch Is probably the most effective
and expeditious method known for
killing cabbage worms, as the flame
may be brought in contact with the
underside of the leaves. This Instru
ment Is largely used by market gar
deners.

There are still occasions, however
rare, when inactivity, much as it has

Au absolutely safe list of men whom
It is allowable to kiss might be com
piled from the list given in the Book of
Common Prayer of persons whom It is
forbidden to marry. There can be no
possible Impropriety In any woman’s
belug kissed by her father, grandfather,
brother, uncles, etc., whenever occa
sion may offer. Still, public opinion Is
much less In favor of kissing than of
yore, aud affectionate greetings are
no longer considered good form in mar
ket places or what answers for them In
the present generation.
To the prayer book may be added
cousins within the degrees forbidden In
marriage by the Roman Catholic
church, but these in moderation. The
young man cousin who la greedy in the
matter of kisses from hla pretty cousin

Should be denied
And set aside and mortified.
Kisses of greeting or parting, of good
night, good moruiug and of congratu
lation are still general, although by no
means so frequent as they were for
merly. Indeed, kissing as a practice Is
much less popular than it once was.
Between doctors and the moralists it is
constantly falling more and more Into
disfavor, while, still more fatal, Fash
ion, with a big F, sets her face as a
flint against all demonstrations of feel
ing as ill bred.
All the same, the man who becomes
engaged to be married, as a usual
thing, expects a kiss from his fiancee
to seal the bargain, not for publication,
so to say, but as a guarantee of good
faith on her part. If she is willing to
promise to marry him, he reasons, she
ought to be willing to let him kiss ber.
Moreover, he desires a kiss or kisses
upon general principles as something
to which he Is entitled by the unwrit
ten law of tradition. On the other
hand, me party of the second part has
herself to consider in the matter. A
woman should be sure of her own bona
fide intentions of matrimony and dou
bly sure of those of her lover before
she sets such a sign and seal to the
contract. Engagements of marriage are
by no means lrrefragible, and she who
kisses least Is likely to have least
cause for future regret. At all events
a prudent woman will wait until the
engagement is announced before she
permits any kissing. There are men
who have serious objections to marry
ing any woman who has been engaged
to auother man, for the simple reason
that they do not choose that any man
shall be able to say of the woman
whom they take to wife that he has
kissed her as her lover. It matters lit
tle, rather more, that the kisses hav.»
been given in good faith to an affianced

No more horrid odors through the
house when cooking is in progress. A
smokeless frying pan Is the latest in
vention to come to the housekeeper’s
aid. There Is a diminutive chimney in
one side of the frying pan by which all
the odor of cooking Is sucked down in
to the stove and, presto, up the chim
ney. Tiuy perforations in the lid aid
the work.
The bole In the bottom of the pan Is
on one side, so that it in no way inter
feres with anything placed in the pan.
It Is also walled around with the ma
terial of the pan to the top, so that the
careful housewife need not fear that

HOW DOGS FIND THEIR WAY I
ETHICS 0E KISSING.
A noted "lady killer” of a past gener
ation who bad been engaged many
times and who boasted to his intimates
that no woman had ever refused an of
fer of bis band in marriage was once
asked why in that case he was still a
bachelor. “Because I am waiting until
I can find a woman who will not per-
mit me to kiss her before we are mar-
vied,” he replied.
Even though a woman be fully as
sured of the inevltablenesa in due time
of ber marriage she will be wise not to
be too liberal of her caresses. Most
things in this world are rated aa valua
ble in direct proportion to their rarity.
Were diamonds as common as pebbles
they would be worth no more commer
cially than the common stones of the
beach and highway. Moreover, one may
have too much of a good thing. King
Midas’ story is an old one. “Too much
water drowned the miller.” It Is a com
mon practice with confectioners to al
low a new apprentice all the candy
which he or she can eat, certain that in
a little while the surfeit of sweet will
destroy all taste for sugar in any form.
It is human nature essentially to tire
of what we have much of aud to prize
most the fruit which hangs highest
and Is most difficult to obtain.
Consequently the woman who Is
chary of her favors, who is niggardly
even with ber caresses, will find that
ber lover values them all the more, and
that bls respect, as well as his affec
tion, for ber becomes the greater In
proportion as he hopes rather than la

Great Sum» Oftru Hurriedly Raised

In Wall street concerns the amount of
cupltal that a large bank could raise at
un hour’s notice. That Is, bow much
accommodation could a bank extend a
customer unexpectedly confronted with
pressing need or for the purpose of
financing a big deal. A banker of in

the statement that Wall atreet's facili
ties in this regard are superior to Lon

Bald au officer of one of Wall street’s
most important bauks: "It Is no trou
ble at all nowadays to raise $5,000,000

seen it done too often to think for a
moment that it would tax seriously a
large bank's resources. Five times that
sum, say $25,000,000, can be raised at
twenty-four hours' notice. It has been
done. Of course no one bank could do
it, but the great Wall street institu

sources for the financing of any safe

Plctares and the Eye.
Sir Thomas Lawrence, an eminent
English painter and president of the
Itoyal academy, commended the pic

to him: “You have around your room
two or three rough, clever, but coarse
Flemish sketches. If I were you, I
would not allow my eye to become fa
miliarized with any but the highest
forms of art. If you cannot afford to
buy good oil paintings, buy good en
gravings of grea't pictures, or have
nothing at all upon your walls.
"You allow. In Intercourse with your
fellows, that 'evil communications cor

tures. If you allow your eye to become
familiar with what is vulgar in con
ception. however free and dashing the
handling and however excellent the
feeling for color, your taste will insen
sibly become depraved. Whereas, if
you habituate your eye to look only

become elevated.”

A Queer Relic.
In University college. London, is a
singular object that la preserved care
fully in a remote gallery inside a glass
case, which again is contained In a
huge wooden cupboard, the doors of
which are locked and the keys in safe
custody. The relic which is thus so
zealously guarded is described In some
notes on the history of the college as
the "skeleton” of Jeremy Bentham,
“clad in the garments in which he
lived,” while bls bead only Is stated to
have been "mummified." It has always
been understood that Bentham's body
was embalmed, and in that case it can
not be his mere skeleton which Is re
posing there under lock and key.

In the Monferrato It is believed that
all the cats who wander alsnit upon

If after Ills decease it Is seen upon his

to the locality to which his soul lins

that cats generally become witches be

years. A French belief concerning the
cat Is that if the animal be carried in
a cart and the wind blow from It to

1 Dlaaer Speech of Mis That Elicited
llowls Of Derialoo.
I once sat at a banquet given In Lon-
ion by Wilson Barrett to Lawrence
Barrett, says a writer in an English
magazine. Earl Lytton presided, a
curled, oiled, effeminate, supercllioua
fop. He had a Roman tragedy to sell to
Wilson Barrett. That was why be
came.
He eulogized Wilson Barrett in a
tpeech. "I believe,” he said, “that Mr.
Barrett won some success with a piece
railed (consulting his notes) 'The Lights
of Ixindon.’ I suppose it was the work
of some dramatic hack.” George 81ms
sat facing him and never said a word.
Then Ills lordship went drawling on:
“I next find on the list of Mr. Barrett’s
successes something called ‘The Silver
King.’ Here again I know nothing of
the authorship. The names of those
dramatic carpenters do not interest
me.” At which Henry Arthur Jones
glared and a flush came Into the face of
poor blind Henry Herman.
“Finally,” saiu Lord Ljttou, “Mr.
Wilson Rnrrott has placed on his
boards what lie humorously calls a Ro
man tr-<Nly. I refer to ‘Claudlan,’ at-
♦ribnt/Ml to one W. G. Wills, of whom I
have never heard.” This waa too much
for the banqueters. All of them were
personally acquainted with Irving's
pet poet, the modest Wills. So they
howled derisively.
And Earl Lytton's tragedy, produced
a month later, was a dismal failure.
