London and Manchester are still dis puting as to which is the greater Eu ropean cenrer ot poptimuuu. avi ple would suppose that London owns the title beyond peradventure. Even If one draws a circle with a radius of thirty miles about Charing Cross sta tion one gets a population of more than 6,000,0u0, as against 5,500,000 within a similar distance from the Manchester exchange. But protract ing a circle w-ith a forty-mile radius one gets a greater Manchester that bows a population of more than 6,000,000, as against a greater London of only about 7,000,000. ord. thought or lir. plication, ia dan-! gerous and anything bu,t moral.

Hs ruck New York hoping to get work on the subway, and found that men were being discharged by the hun dreds as that great project netrvea completion, 80 he walked the strv-ets and slept in the park aud thought about suicide and was a derera!e man. Finally be stole a package out of an express wagon, and the law im mediately took notice, and John ocn found himself behind the bars. So fur this t-eems very commonplace. Miles, away In Philadelphia a loving wife read of her husband's arrest. Tbero were two babies la the Kennedy h ine, and no money. Mr. Kenn.dy trted lor New York on foot carry!; g a baby on each arm. he didn't know what the could do in that great city. She simply realized that the father of ler hliuren was In trouble, and was sur-i that bli wife should be at his side. So she trudgen! along the railroad track. Sometime she sat under a tree and hushed Jhe cries of n child. Most of the time she was walking. Hhe found kind people along the route who gave her food and wished her god.-peed on her mission. Once she had a ride of several miles, and finally, footsore but undismayed, she found the court Where her husband was on trial and entered the room, still carrying ber babies. She told her story to the Judge and pleaded for her husband. "He was starving and Just couldn't help," she said. "I r-antrd to save him, so I took the babies and walked." "Garver, said the Judge to the court constable, "i.as the hat" and the trial ended with a tine contribution to Mrs. John Kennedy. That was a mis carriage of Justice, if the law Is to be administered Impartially there should have been a conviction, for John Kennedy was thief. But let's le thankful that there Is a hnmaniry and a sense of appreciation even great er than mere statutes; that men 1 hearts are so molded that love and de votion and self sacrifice touch the ten der spot In their breasts and make them kind. wide as the world and as deep as the ocean.

The disc a a form of soil cultivatoi is becoming constantly more popular; but it must be used right to be ef fective.

Not all oils are adapted for Its use exceedingly stony la Ml Is ill fitted for Its ue, nor perhaps the heavy, sticky clays. Hut upon loamy soils that are loos and upon which nod quickly forms after seeding there is no tool to compare to the heavy disc. It seems a waste of money to buy the small light machines. Farm ers often say. "My team I light, I can not draw those big -ti!ch discs. weighted.'' Ail right then you won't di much business. Tb small teams always mean ifoor cultivation upon these heavy soils there must be giver tile draft of three or four horses of good weight not less than poiinibt. I'pou the machine besides the driver may be added an extra load of stone to put the discs down at least five Inches, and If the sod Is not torn up go diiper. The field may look un even when finished, but. a spring tootll or smoothing harrow will do the level ing and the will will have been thor oughly mixed and the cultivation If prolonged for two weeks will approxi mate the old fashioned summer fallow.

A WONDER WORKER of C. P. Hteinmetz. a Great Electrical Worker. In the World's Work Arthur Good rich tells some Interesting stories about Charles P. SteiumeU, one of the great est electrical Inventors. Ktelumets "Leprosy Is as curable as typhoid or yellow fever," says Dr. Isadore Dyer, the physician in charge of the lexers' borne in Louisiana, and one of the moat distinguished leprosy experts In the world. Before the last Berlin con ference on leprosy, which Dr. Dyer attended, a few cases of the disease were known to have been cored. That there were no more is due, In the "opinion Of the Louisiana expert, to the. lack . of proper treatment whicb consists in taking the case early and following it persistently and unremit ting for years. During the last two years every case In the Louisiana home, except those In the last stages, bas been improved, and three patients will soon be discharged as cured.

Some years ago Steinmetz went into the Adirondacks with a bunting party 01 ineuas. roi caring 10 uuni, un 1 was often left alone at a little lodge that was made the party's headquart ers. One night before the camp-fire a mathematical question came into his head. To settle It, he needed a table of logarithms, which could Dot hav been found within miles of the camp. He remembered a few figures, and In a short time had worked out an en tire table of logarithms for himself, and from It solved the problem.

" After two months I decided to try what a change would do for me, and as Lydia I'm Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was strongly recommended to me I decided to try it.

Corn silk has received eontiiderabh attention from our corn scientists. It is a somewhat unusual manifestation ot nature, the cavity to be fertilized by the pollen sending out this long, silky mesaenger to guide the pollen grain to Its goal. The growth and develop ment of the silk hears an Important re lationship to the crop of corn that U to be harvested. The silk at the butt of the ear appears first and is the long est, as It must grow the whole length of the cob to get to the light at all. Yet it does this and Is waving In the air catching the pollen before the tip silks have appeared. The butt cavities or ovaries are therefore the first to be fertilized. It is generally believed that the shorter tbe ear the more likery it is to be covered with kernels, as the longer the ear the later will the tip silks be in getting out to the light where they can be of service. For thi reason the tips of long ears are fre nopntiv found with no kernels , on them. The silks did not get out till after the stalks had ceased shedding pollen. If an ear of corn that Is send lug out silk be covered with a long paper funnel, the silk will aontluue to grow in length till It has attained a length of 20 Inches or more. At th lowa station an ear of corn treated in this way seemed to despair of getting pollen and sent out two new ears neai Its base; and these two new ears de velopcd a good mass of silk. The fall Ing of the pollen on the silk Is followed by the grn being conveyed to th ovaries, after the completion of whlct work the silk dies . $5000 Lrdl k. rtiikh&m Mod.
