Bending low he whispered Into Tom
my's ear;
“ I need scareety say that your lord-
ship will be at no expense, none
whatever.”
Then he turned and gave a series
of orders In German to a subordinate
who stood near.
Tommy leaned back In his gilt chair
and looked round. He saw at once
that he had been given one of the
very best tables In the room. It stood
at the edge of a great square carpet
which covered the center of the floor.
On the carpet Itself there were no
tables. But diners at tables of var
ious sizes sat round It in parties of
two or four or six. Behind the tables
which stood on the edge of the car
pet were others. Behind these still
more and these were set on a sort
of platform a step above the floor of
the room. Farther back among pillars
and under archways In what Tommy
thought of as broad side aisles, were
other places for still more diners.
Gazing round curiously Tommy
caught sight of a woman standing up
at one of the farthest tables. She
was waving her hand and signaling
to him. At a second glance he rec
ognized her—Janet Church. In a se
vere blnck dress, the only evenmg
gown she took with her when trav
eling, she looked much out of place
In the Maseotte. Having attracted
Tommy's attention, she began to
cross the room toward him, evidently
with the Intention of sitting down at
his table. But this was not al
lowed. The head waiter caught sight
of her and gave an order to one of
his men. Janet Church was stopped,
turned round and conducted to the
obscure and distant table which she
had left.
It would Interest me, though per
haps no one else, to know what Tom
my had to eat and drink that night.

The princess' turn was evidently
the chief performance of the eve
ning. Conversation ceased. Men sal
down their glasses and leaned for
ward In their chairs. The music of
the band sank to a soft rhythmical
throbbing. A drum muttered softly.
A girl In a dress shining with se
quins stepped daintily down among
the tables, stood In the middle of the
carpet and curtsied low to Tommy.
He could have sw’orn that It was
to him alone that she curtsied, that
she took no notice of any one else in

having secured the services of a real
princess, made the most of her, and
gave her every chance of making the
most of herself. The higher lights
were extinguished all over the room.
Only the small shaded lamps on the
diners' tables still burned. A bright
beam from some hidden lamp fell on
the princess and followed her whar-
ever she moved. The twitching of
the violin strings grew faster.
Tha
players drew their bows across the
strings and the music came loud and
tempestuous. The girl on the carpet
with the light on her looked younger,
fresher, more beautiful than any of
the others who had danced before
her.
Unfortunately she could not dance.
Her performance would
scarcely
have won applause In a second-rate
theater.
Her steps and attitudes
were graceful enough but were easy
of accomplishment. There was no
kind of spirit or any delight in her
dancing.
Even Tommy, who knew
nothing about

ing that she disliked doing It and de

for. It seemed to Tommy that she
was dancing specially for him and
that she disliked and despised him
more than she did the others.
The music rose to a climax of
sound. The dance came suddenly to
an end. The lights blazed out again.
The girl sank to the ground In a low
curtsey with her skirts spread out
round her. right In front of Tommy's
table, within a couple of feet from
him. There was a burst of applause.
Men stood tip and shouted. It was
not the dancing they approved. Not
a Jewess among them, not a slant
eyed Russian lady, not a profiteer,
or even an American but knew per
fectly well that the girl could not
dance. Their applause was for them
selves, not for her. It was the new

a little motion of her hand she flicked

Snake Does N o t “ S tin g ”
The stinging snake Is a mytn. Al
though thousands of people apparently
believe there is such a thing as a
stinging snake, and many of them in
sist that they have seen such snake*
no competent scientist or observer has
ever had the privilege of seeing on«.
Rewards for stinging snakes are oc
casionally offered. but no such snakea
are ever produced. The nearest ap
proach to the supposed stinging snake
Is the “ Furancla abacura." l small,
harmless snake with a needle-llke
spine on its tail. In different parts
of the South this snake, along with
kindred specl»*. Is known variously as
the hoop snaxe, the rainbow snake,
the mud snake and the stinging snake.
But the notion that these snakes sting

Brief suggestions on shearing sheep
are given below by the animal hus
bandry division for the benefit o f
those farmers who are growing sheep
for the first time and are inexperi
enced in the method of shearing.
The first mistake commonly made
in shearing sheep Is the method of
catching and holding.
There are
three ways by which the sheep may
be satisfactorily caught.
The first
is to throw the bund in front of the
neck, the second is to grasp them in
the rear Hank, and the third is to
catch the left hind leg just above the
hock in the right hand and then grad
ually pull the sheep backward and
throw the left hand around under the
chin. The next tiling to do is to lift
the sheep entirely clear of its feet
and place it on its rump, Inclining it
back somewhat so that the hind legs
cannot get a foothold.
Sheep placed
in such a position will struggle very
little— the beginner, however, will
have considerable difficulty In prevent
ing the sheep from struggling vio
lently.
In shearing, the wool should be cut
smoothly and close to the body.
A
very common mistake is to clip them
the first time not very close to the
body and then go over the surface
again and reclip.
This method re
sults in a lot of short fibers which are
practically worthless, so far as the
manufacturer is concerned.
The
fleece should be kept intact and
should not be taken off in hunches
or patclies.
After it is taken from
the body It should be carefully rolled
with the inside (side which was next
to the body) out. When thus rolled it
gives the fleece a splendid appearance
and it will sell better on the market.
Probably the worst mistake made
in shearing sheep is that all sorts of
twine are used in tying the fleeces.
One should select twine which has
a very hard finish and which will
not shed its fibers in the wool. Good
three-ply No. 4*6 twine is very satis
factory.
There is a so-called wool
twine on the market which is very
soft and sheds its fillers readily, which
is very objectionable.
Ordinary bind
er twine, which is used in harvesting
small grain is also objectionable.
There is a paper wool for the pur
pose of tying fleeces and which is
thoroughly satisfactory.
After tying, the fleeces should be
stored in a clean, dry place where
they will not accumulate moisture or
dust. When placed in bags for ship
ment or storage care should be taken
to select bags which are closely
woven, so that they will not shed
their fibers on the fleeces.
When
placed in ordinary burlap sacks the
fibers from these sacks will gtt In
the fleeces, and when woven into cloth
or blankets they will not dye readily
and consequently the buyer cannot
afford to pay as much for fleeces
stored and shipped in such bags as
he could if the proper type of bag
were used.
Better Demand for Pure-
Bred Horses in Kansas
Unusually large numbers of licenses
Issued to owners of stallions, and the
good demand for breeding stock of the
Kansas State Agricultural college herd
Indicate an Increased interest over
Kansas In pure-bred horses In the
opinion of Prof. D. L. Mackintosh of
the department of animal husbandry.
Licenses Issued so far this year to
stallion owners number 150 mure than
those given out at the same time In
1924.
Within the past ten months the col
lege has sold 17 stallions and mares
to Kansas breeders. The outstanding
Individuals sold from the college herd
were the Belgian stallions Colgar and

Lad. winner at the free fair, and re

Prices for pure bred stock are fair,
and the demand Is fairly steady over

Market for Clean Hogs
Hogs fed on properly pasteurized
whey, skim milk, or buttermilk are

cattle herds supplying milk to the
factory are badly Infected. Every

O dd Fishing
Several hundred Indians, including
women and children, assembled at
Fisher Bay, at the mouth of the Naas
rlvqr, In eurly spring, awaiting the ar
rival of the oolielmns, aceorillng to
word from Prince Rupert, British Co
lumbia. The annual run of the fish
usually lasts a month. The Indians
come from great distances to fish for
them through the Ice, and out of the
catch they make oollchan grease,
which they use In place of butter. In
previous years as many as 1,000 of the
Indians have assembled at the moutli
of the river, but this year there were
not more than 300.
