Woven Wire For Incloturo the Latsst and Boat. The matter of farm fence la one of the principal improvements of the farm. A farm without good fences never la valued very highly, even though the fields be clean and fertile, On a great many farms the fence proportion Is always a serious one with the owner. Too many farmers are Indifferent regarding the keeping of I heir fences In repair. There Is usually plenty of work to be dune on the farm fences. They are continually foiling out of repair, and uuIcmh looked after they get Into bad order and en tiro '.he live titock to cross them. The matter of farm fences bun already gone, tlimimli f-oiixldcrnble evolution In the last ten years. Very ncltlf.ui docs one ever nee the old roll fence, com niouly termed the "worm fence." The rail fence is fast becoming obsolete. even In the timber districts. They never were a thing of beauty, but their construction lent n ijualntneHs to many homesteads. Another fence that la panning rapidly la the hedgerow. A hedge fence when properly cured for Is one of the beautifylu? acquisitions of a well kept farm. When It Is not properly trimmed and cared for It Is an eyesore. Hedge has grown uipoi uhir ou account of the large amount of work required to keep It In projier con dition and nlso on account of Its draw ing the soil fertility from the ground for a considerable distance where planted. Hurlcd wire is also uuother thing that Is meeting with disfavor with th most progressive farmers. It Is a very cheap and durable fence, hut If it I.- not kept In iHTfe't condition It in tin most dangerous thing nliout the farm, eeclully where live stock Is kept. On a great many farms barbed wire fences huve coat the owner many times more than what It cost to cot!stm-t them iu the damage done to live Hto k. Many a valuable colt or horse bus been rendered practically worthies by It. The damage done to cattle has not been so great, but there are Instances where many valuable dairy cows have bad their udders practically ruined by barbed wire. The coming fence In fact It Is al ready here Is the woven wire. It has everything to commend It. It I sightly when prois-rly put op and does not permit of grassy or weedy fence comers. W Ire rent ck take up very lit tle land ntul permit a very high de gree of farming, t'rops will grow right up by the aide of It. and the keeping f the fence rows clean li little lalmr. Bad fences are often responsible fur bad feeling between neighbors. Woven wire fences are the eiotlcst of all femes to keep In repair. If they are put u; rl ht they tire nearly always In good condition. A little attention paid to them oik e In awhile Is nil that Is necessary to keep tliem iu llrst class order. The best way to malniai'i a woven wire fence Is to have a barbed wire it retched on top the posts. This ireveiils the stock, especially horses. rom throwing their heads over the fence or breaking down the wire. Soorehod Table Linen. When the three men sat down the leader of the trio began a minute in spection of the tablecloth. Presently be put his finger on several little scorched spots. "See tblsV be said to the waiter. "Yes, air." Well," said the man. "Just bear Iu mind, won't you, that these Ales were here when we came In A: w'.wu we get through don't ta k a tl II ir on to our bill to pay for burned table Hiion." "That's nil right." va'.d the waiter. "I'll look out for that." The order having leen given, the cautious diner elucidated bis remarks etlll further. "That la a trl k those fellows have," he said. "Somebody burns the tablecloth with sparks from a cigar and gets nwny before the dnm- uge Is discovered, nr.d the next comer. If he happen!! to be a smoker. Is blamed for his predecessor's sins and Is charged with the cost of the linen. I have had to pay well for other peo ple's carelessness, ko nowadays I make It a point to examine tablecloths at the beginning of a meal." New York Tress.

One day a mild mannered Itussktn came out of the railway station with a valise In his baud. He was a heavily bearded man and with shaggy hands aud arms like George Esau. He bunt ed up a cabman and Inquired modest ly, "Where Is the dime museum T" The cabman told him and then asked, Waut to ride up?" "Yea," the bearded stranger told hlra quietly, almost bashfully. "I'm to be employed up there. I'm the wild man." "The narrow escape," says the ex- clrcus man, "lay In the fact that no newspaer man heard the man's re mark and that the cabman was an Englishman, with no sense of humor, who never thought to rciieat It."
