COLLAPSE
OF BILLIE
BUTTONS
By MARY M. RAYNAL
() r Short Slery Puk. Ce.)
Wi
II.MAM BURTON, to his In
timates Ililll Burton, or
oftener Ulllle Button, waa
the adored aon of hi moth
er. It waa she who had created th
myth of hi feeble health, thus with
holding him from the practice of law;
though there were those of hi friend
who held that HUM had becom a bar
rtster merely by way of pasalng two
mere plestsnt yesr at the university.
Us was a good boy, hit mother
would aay, with the Innocent convic
tion that Dlllle't goodness glided hi
Ineffectuuliiesa. But with It all be
waa no fool, when he was not giving a
representation of Bouts' band on a
mouth-harp, Dllll could discuss, wltb
enthusiasm, some dry-es-bone essay
in a British review.
Being a good boy, ha did not pine
for rlotout compuuloni, but all of the
force of hit tweet, shallow nature
apent Itself In adoration of whatever
girl bsppened to be at hand. Hhe need
not necessarily be a pretty girl, Blllle
Button wa an Idealist who could
read besuty Into anything of the femi
nine ahape. How he had escaped cap
tivity wa a mystery, for Blllle waa
lovable a well a loving; but by a
sort of guileless gullefulnes b al-
wsy managed to elude matrimony.
With their modeat Income, the main
tenance of a third party would have
been an Inconvenience to both Blllle
and hla mother. ,
I first met the pair, mother and aon,
at the beach, where, to the murmur of
moon kissed waves, Blllle wa war
bling love songs to a winsome debu
tante. It was unethical In Blllle'a eye
to make love to two girl at once, but
be continually felt the need of another
girt to whom he might chant the
praise of hi lady when the lady her
self wa unattainable; hence his repu
tation aa a flirt. It being difficult for
the public to differentiate between
what Blllle termed a 'rare friendship"
and a love affair. But t who have
played second fiddle to Blllle through
many summers, can testify to bis sin-gte-heertednea.
Last June, a I traveled toward a
secluded vatley of the Blue Itldge, I
thought, with a lonely pang, of Blllle,
hla ardor had ao become a part of my
vacation. I'pon arriving at the little
mountain Inn, however, I wat rejoiced
by the eight of a pair of (overt loung
ing la the shadow of a patrlachal fir.
The devoted pose was unmistakable.
Blllle Buttons sgaln held th center of
my stage.
The leading lady thlt time wit t
fascinating little Creole, who had fled
from the heat of her Louisiana plan
tatloo.
"Rhe baa aa unpronounceable little
French name, ao I call her Mollle
my Mollle Bawn," ssld Blllle. when It
waa time for me to be confided In.
Tv made a Utile vera about her:
la the goldea summertime,
Mullle atole any heart from me
Maw ehe flurlea la the crime,
Calla It petty larceny.
"Oh, Blllle. Blllle I what a fib artlat
you are. You cribbed that out of an
old magaslna. I know th womsn who
wrote It"
"Really, you are unkind," protested
Blllle. "If I resd It, It wa longer
age than I can remember. I thought
rd written It myself."
"But, a for your Mollle Bawa, why
doa't you marry herT 8k I Irresist
ible." "And she ha a sugar plsntatlon,"
supplemented Blllle, contentedly.
"It's time you were settling down;
you sr almost forty, aren't you, Bll
lier "Almost forty, and a worse spoiled
boy than I wa at twenty," hla tone
wa bitter, "I've gray hairs and I've
crow't feet, and still I sin nothing but
Blllle Buttons."
"Soon to be Mr. William Burton, the
sugar king."
Blllle, grinning foolishly, dropped
the aore subject of bit InelTectualnesa.
To one who had followed the In
tricacies of Blllle' love-makings
through th tessons, the difference In
this case was significant. He wat
bumblod, unaure of himself. The lit
tle heiress plantation mad marriage
with her possible, yet It was not for
her money that Blllle would marry
her, be waa genuinely and seriously
In love, Aa hla devotion Increased to
did bit telf-deprerlatlon, until his
chivalrous notion that he should pro
tect her against himself made It doubt
ful whether be would ever ask her to
marry him.
Despite hit qualms be wat deliri
ously happy. But Just at the lid lead
lug on to fortune wet at Itt flow, It
received a terrific check.
The rural dellveryman had handed
out hit lettert, for Blllle a tingle let
ter In a determined hand. At sight of
the writing be paled, after reading It
he waa white to the Hps, with a look
of fright In hla round childlike eyes.
rretently he disappeared down th
rhododendron walk.
"I'm afrnld Mr. Burton has hsd bad
newt," murmured the little Creole,
troubled, wistful to thire bl sorrow
with him.
Night had fallen before Bllll re
appeared to beckon me out to the
shadow of the fir; "l'trtner, I'm In
the deuce of a fix."
Explanation wu long In coming,
finally: "You remember my mother
wa ao 111 In th spring? We bad a
trained nurse for her, a Mis Mallnda
Evan." 8li wu capable, and ar
strong-minded. She looked Ilka a
horse."
"But horse ar benutlful, Bllll."
"Not when they ere gaunt and raw-
boned," miserably.
"Then bow did you happen
"She saved my mother's life," wltb
despairing finality. "Poor little
mother had nervous prostration, and
wa to get on dying that I wat out of
my wltt with anxiety. Then Mis
Evsn cam to boss her Into getting
well."
"Stilt, I don't quite understand your
obligation."
"I waa ao eternally grateful, I told
ber she wa an angel. I held her
hand oftener than waa prudent. I wa
so upset, seeT
"But that wat weekt tgo."
"I told ber If she wat ever near to
tend for me. She's tent."
"Where 1 the?"
"Over lo Ashevllle nursing a bug."
"Nurtlng what?"
"A tubercular patient She will be
whiter and starchier than ever, and
smell of antiseptic." Every fiber In
bl being cringed.
"Blllle, the I a designing old maid.
ah shan't have you I" I cried, In paa
slonat protest. "You've wiggled out
of worse scrapes than tills. Surely
you aren't going?"
'I waa never up against a Mlsa
Evans before. I'm afraid I am going."
There waa a deadly suffocating qual
ity In bl misery, before which argu
ment shriveled la despair. The wom
an must have hypnotised him.
The next morning Blllle wat gone
without a word o farewell
A few weeks later a suspiciously
heavy white envelope came to me.
From Ita atel-clad contents, I learned
of tli marriage at the Battery Park
of Mlaa Mallnda Event and Mr. Wil
liam Burton.

Rare Animal Specimen
Added to London "Zoo"
A vary rare animal has recently ar
rived at the Loudon Zoological gar
dens In tb form of a pangolin, or
scaly anteater.
With the exception of a solltsry
specimen which survived only two or
three days, this extraordlnsry beaat
baa not been represented In th cot'
lecton for belt a century.
It la difficult to believe that the pan
golin la really a mammal, for, save on
th underparts. It I covered with over
lapping bony scales, arranged fir-cone
fashion, and look more like a rep
tile or a miniature of soine prehis
toric monster.
The animal Is destitute of teeth, and
la In th habit of licking up ant and
termite wltb long and worm-like
tongue.
Owing to the enormous number of
these Insect required to satisfy the
appetite of a pangolin, the too apet-
Imen. which comes from Hongkong,
will here to content Itself wltb mock
meals, composed of meshed meat and
milk flavored with the dried pdpse
of ante familiarly known a "ants'
eggs."
Burke Given Credit
for "Fourth Ettate"
In this country there I really but
one "estate." Legally, at leaat, no on
cltlsen has a greater voice than an
other In public affair. In Great Brit
ain the "estate of the realm" ar
three In number the lords spiritual.
or the churchmen, the lords temporal,
or the nobility, and the commons. The
term "fourth eetste," ss applied to
the newspsper prese In reference to
Its political Influence, Is ssld to have
originated with Edmund Burke, while
peaking In the houae of commons. Or
at least Csrlyle credited It to blm,
though It doee not appear In Burke's
published works.
"Burke aald there were three estatea
In parliament," wrot Carlyle In
"Hero Worship," lecture five, "but In
th reporters' gallery yonder there
sat a fourth estate, more Important
far than they all."
Tata'f Opinion of Women
Women will coon be the dominant
sex, with men relegated to the orna
mental but useful position of drones,
predicts Nikola Tenia, famous Inven
tor. Beelng a trim, efficient young

WarningB Mad Vivid
A gruesome poster has been Issued
by the Johsnneeburg department of
health, warning the people against
plague, "Death," armed with a sickle
and surrounded by rsys of the dying
tun, la printed on a sheet of white
psper, and underneath, In English and
Dutch, la the warning to kill rata and
mice. Instructions are given how to
deal with dead rats found In the veld.
how to lay poison, and how to make

finding of a dead rat to the police or

Appriciativi
The rumor iprend about that
woman of uncertain oge, whose
chances of matrimony were rather re
mote, waa going to be married. Meet

"Well, not exactly,' she replied.

PROTEINS NEEDED
FOR DAIRY COWS
Many dairymen overlook th fact
that summer pastures supply an In-
sufficient amount of protelna to enable
dairy cow to give ber beat produc
tion, according to the National Dairy
council In advocating that torn grain
ration be used at all times to supple
ment grasses, even If alfalfa, clover,
aoy beans or other legum crop are
being pastured.
Prof. W. J. rraser of the' University
of Illinois baa made an Interesting
statement to empbsslte this fact to
dairymen. He referred to a pasture
experiment made during twelve week
of mid-summer by the Illinois experi
ment station, and summarise th re
sults thus:
It would have required 80 acres of
pasture to support an ordinary cow.
If th cow la to graza over this area
very week, she would bav to travel
80 mile a day and have a niuxxle two
feet wide."
Prof. J. J. Hooper of the Kentucky
experiment station mad a similar ob
servation, to determine bow. much
grass a dairy cow required. He
clipped aom grass with a pair of
sheers and waa surprised at the area
required to yield 100 pounds, the
amount needed by a 1,000-pound cow
giving 26 pounds of milk a day.
"I bad to clip 800 square feet of
blue grasa," state Professor Hooper,
"the beads of wblcb stood 15 Inches
high. All tb bladea were not this
high, but the aeed bead were. I
clipped aa cloae aa a eow would grate,
and th grass waa good and thick."
By cramming the grass into gunny
sacks, Professor Hooper used three
eacks, showing bow much grasa a cow
must eat each day to produce even
minimum amount of milk.
Dairymen should not overlook the
value of feeding their cheaper grain
for Increased efficiency, according to
the National Dairy council. A sur
plus of corn during the winter baa
mad this a desirable feed for dairy
cows If supplemented by protein feeds,
whO tb price paid for dairy prod
uct bav been maintained by an In
creasing demand for milk, butter, Ice
cream and cheese. Not only doea the
dairy farmer make a profit by thus
marketing corn products, but ha la
paid regularly throughout the year,
and In addition still haa valuable fer
tiliser with which to maintain the fer
tility of bis land.
Type and Equipment of
Model Farm Milk House
Year of study bare resulted la the
development of a type of farm milk
houae and equipment for the produc
tion of clean and wholeeeme milk on
the farm. Thla building, with Its
cooler, storage tank, wasb sink, and
ateaiuer, 1 on of tb essentials In
th production of a wholesome food
product through the "milk route." At
tb request of the Smithsonian Insti
tution In Washington, D. C a minia
ture of a model farm milk house wilt
be placed on exhibition there, where
It will form a part of th mammoth
display of vsrlous other factors af
fecting tbe food and the health of the
nation. Preliminary plana for the
model have been drawn by the bureau
of dairying of the United States De
partment of Agriculture. It will be
constructed and put In place by th
department' office of exhibit.
Feeding Grain to Cows
Is Profitable Practice
Doe It pay to feed grain to my
cowar la a question which many
farmera will be asking themselves.
Results have been obtained In Kansas
cow test association work clearly prov
ing that It doea, even In a season
of high feed prices, t'nder favorable
conditions It la possible to produce
an average of 100 pounds of fat year
ly on a ration of good roughage such
aa alfalfa, bay and atlnge. But with
cow capable of producing more than
thla It la vary questionable If It Is
economical to limit the feed. Like a
manufacturing plant, the dairy cow
la only operating on th moat economl
cal bastawhsn being run to her normal
capacity.
Remove Horns From Cattle
Unless dairy animate are to be need
for show purposes their horns should
be removed. Oows with born endan
ger each other and even their attend
ante. Many a good udder haa been
partially or totally apolled by a gouge
from a sharp' horn. Bulla are much
more easily and safely bandied when
dehorned. The easiest way to remove
horn I with caustic potash on th
week-old call Clip th hair around
th horn button and rub the apot about
the else of a penny with the stick of
caustic untiUL blood. aD Dears.
Regularity With Cows
Feeding, watering, milking and turn
ing the cows out for exercise should
be done ss regularly aa possible every
day. Th time between feeding and
milking morning and night should be
divided aa evenly aa possible. Milking
should be done as rapidly aa possible
without being rough, and It la impor
tant that the cows should be milked
dry, becsuse milk remaining In the
udder after the cows have been milked
acta as a positive check upon future
secretion. .

Drop Gather Weight.
The weather bureau aaya that the'
chief reason why froxen raindrops are
of so many different shapes Is the
fact that partially froxen drops often
collide and stick together, giving
shapea that vary with the number
and alze of the adhering drops, and;
the extent to which they were frozen
when they collided. Entirely liquid
drops on collision form. If they nnlte,
