ONE CENT CAPITAL Penny Token Left by VVili Brings Great and Unexpected Min eral Riches. By MILDRED CAROLINE GOOD RIDGE. “And to niv second nephew, Ronald Blair, as a reminder of his remarkable powers of memory, I leave the munifi cent sum of one penny. As he has seen fit to Imitate my peculiarities in private, so may he copy my diligence, beginning life on one cent capital, which is more than I had at the start, and making his own way in the world.” The legatee in question listened to the slow, measured tones of Lawyer Jones like one in a dream. The read er of the last will and testament of Jepthah Blair, stern, practical man as he was. cast a mournful and sympa thetic look at the young man. Ho liked Blair immensely, as did every one else In the town, unless it was Hugh Telford, seated also in the apartment. He smiled viciously and triumphantly. He was safe ashore while Ronald was floundering in dark waters. The “Blair Plat’’ was to be given to Telford, together with stocks and bonds valued at $10,000. "1 suppose you feel like cursing 1'ncle Jepthah." insinuated this pre cious young schemer and spendthrift. Ronald was pale; disappointment and chagrin showed in his frank, sensative face. It hardened as he fixed his clear accusing eyes upon his sneering relative. "No.” he ■ replied steadily. “If I was of the cursing sort you might come in for your share, for—I under ctand. now.’’ He left the lawyer's office as he spoke and a shade of anger and fear crossed the features of Telford. Ron ald had to admit that he had expect ed a substantial legacy. He had every reason to anticipate it. It was cruel, after all his hopes and plans, and his heart sank like lead as he thought of Ruth Mason, his fiance. Where should he go for comfort save to her? It was his privilege, his “That’s the Real Stuff!” right, and half an hour later he was seated by her side on the porch of the Mason home. “It must be between you and r*e; all that I have to tell you, dear,” he said to' the pitying angel at his side. Two years ago when Hugh and I were at college there was a charac ter play. In it was a miserly old fellow, in dress and actions so fully a counterpart of Uncle Jepthah that many recognized it. This came to his ears, and that will was made. In reality Hugh had made the suggestion :>f the character to a chum, and rath er gloated over ‘showing up the old skinflint.’ as he called his uncle Then when the matter got public he became frightened and told uncle that I was the culprit.” "Rut you told me that later every thing was explained to Mr. Blair.” suggested Ruth. “That Is true, and uncle took me back into his good graces. He even calied upon Hugh In my presence to verif.v his statement that he had de stroyed the will made in anger. Then he died suddenly, intestate. N'ow this will appears. By some trickery 1 am convinced Hugh preserved it.” “But the law,” began Ruth. “T shall not appeal to It. Let Hugh go his selfish, cow-ardly way. As 'ong as 1 have you what, does the rest matter? We can wait a little while longer, can’t we. dear?” Ruth lifted her sweet, bonny face <o his. ineffable tenderness and fidel ity in Its beautiful depths. Ronald preserved the penny left to ntm. Most fellows would have cast it away with an anathema. Ronald knew his old uncle meant to do him justice. It was a rare old Scotch eoin. He had the jeweler make a hole In if and suspended it from his watch ehain. The. Blair Plat left to his cousin was a valuable property. Just before the ueath of Mr. Blair a deposit of a rare find valuable clay used in stereotyp ing and for electrical purposes had been discovered. It was known as izocerite, found elsewhere only In Austria <and Utah. If things turned, nut as they promised. Hugh would seme day become a wealthy man. Adjoining the plat was a twenty acre patch of sterile land which Jiad been left to Ronald by his mother, ft was of so little value that he made no attempt to have it cultivated, hut secured a position as an accountant In a near city. There reached him the first week the disquieting intelligence that Hugh was hanging around the Mason home a good deal. Then he received a let ter from Ruth. It read: "Be patient for a year. I am going away and you must not write to me.” There was no further word, and Ronald felt that everything he valued was fading away from him. His business went well. The peuny seemed to bring -him good luck. In a street melee the bullets severely wounded tie Innocent bystanders, but one striicng the penny glinted off and left him, unscathed. Then the penny was ob'scrved by a loyal old Scotchman | Jading to a .friendship and a lab |,hmotunt of business. It was '-jimf1 a year later when Ron ald paid a Visit to his home town. He. learned that the wonderful ozoc erite vein had run out. Hugh had pretty nearly dissipated all his ready money. He boasted, however, that he was engaged to Ruth and Ronald be lieved this after her inexplicable si lence. In later years he never forgot a sad and moody ramble ending at the barren twenty-acre lot. In going over it he stumbled, his watch chain caught on a bush, and the penny snapped loose and disappeared down a great bpen crack in the ground. Ronald had no thought of losing a token which he sincerely treasured He saw a man digging on an adjoin ing farm, went over to him and bar gained for a careful excavation In quest of the lost memento. It took some delicacy of treatment to manipulate the dry, crumbling dirt At a depth of four feet, the bottom of the crack, the penny was pro dueed. "Hello!” suddenly exclaimed the workman as he scraped off his spade —“say, if this should be the real vein!” “The what?” questioned Ronalc vaguely. “The vein of ozocerite. Look here— that's the real stuff," and he took up a handful of the scrapings from the spade. It was “the real stuff:” that was proven within the ensuing two days All the town was on fire over the rare good luck the old penny had brought to Ronald, for the real ozoc erite vein had been tapped. Ronald was standing on the land that promised so muc.h In the yellow dusk of the fading day a few evenings later, when a familiar figure came up over the rise In the landscape. His heart stood still as she ap proached. Then a bitter thought came into his mind—Ruth had heard of his good fortune. “The year is over." she said bright ly as she approached hifn. "Did they never tell you? It was Hugh Telford who laid his fortune at my feet, and my foolish father encouraged his suit. Finally it was agreed that I should take a year to decide, away from both of you. As if a year or a thousand could make me forget—you!” And she lifted the old penny from the hand of her lover, the lucky penny cf old Jepthah Blair, and kissed it. (Copyright, 191“, by W G. Chapman.) TEACHING CHILDREN TO SWIM Valuable Course Has Been Added to the Public Schools of the Ci^y of Pittsburgh. A course in swimming has been added to the required studies in the public schools of Pittsburgh, and Dr. Watson L. Savage is quoted as saying that he will see to it that every child in the city is taught to swim. This is a step in public education that de serves the hearty approval of every parent and every seeker of the public welfare. "To ride, to shoot and to speak the truth." was the ancient Persian ideal of education. Needless to say. this was for boys only; girls in this day fare better than when the maxim wa6 made. They are taught to exercise as well as to develop their brains nowadays. Alike boys and girls ought to learn to swim, and the public should provide means of teaching that most valuable and pleasurable accom plishment. Swimming is a splendid sport; It develops muscles rarely used in other sports aij^ its usefulness is beyond question. Yet comparatively few per sons learn to swim. There are sailors who have spent many years on the water but are unable to keep afloat when suddenly cast into the element with which they ought to be thorough ly acquainted. Drownings are far too numerous; knowledge of how to swim would greatly lessen their number. May the time soon rome when every child who passes through the public schools will have learned how’ to swim. _ i Nelson's War Stores Found. An interesting find is reported from Home. Some fishermen declare that a shepherd has found near Cape Testa, the extreme northerly point of Sar diana. a large cave, containing an enor mous quantity of powder and other war stores. It is thought probable that the stores were placed in the cave by Nelson when he was watching the French fleet at Toulon in the opera tions which ended in the battle of Trafalgar. Nelson used Sardinia as his base of supplies, and it was while he was refitting there that Yilleneuve escaped from Toulon and got clear away to Martinique, whence he re turned to European waters, where he was at last brought to bay. The Italian military authorities are investi gating the find. Had Two Points of Beauty. Tasmania's pretty girls of European lineage have never been tempted to follow the fashion of the native Tas manian women, who had all their hair removed with a flint and went bald. The last pure blooded Tasmanian woman died in 1876, aged seventy-six; the last man in 1S76, aged thirty-four. \ traveler says that the native had two fine points—eyes and teeth. The eyes were prominent and often of great beauty and brilliancy, and a dentist of wide experience knew of no teeth equal to the Tasmanian's for strength, size and enamel. But the nose was bridgeiess, the chin "ran off’ and the upper jaw protruded. Twisted Title. When the baby became tired of hei candy and placed nearly a whole stick on the table Sister Marjorie took up the sweet and began to eat it. This made the baby cry lustily. "You don't want it, and still yon *a’t want me to have It.” said Mar jarie; "goodness, baby, you're just like the ‘dog in the stall' I read about in my,story book." I SHEEP ARE EXCELLENT WEED ERADiCATQRS Western Sheep Ranch. There are many reasons why farm- | ers should keep more sheep, writes Prof. Thorhas Shaw in The Home- j stead. The relatively small number that is kept on the average farm is one of the remarkable things about ihe live stock industry in the United States. The totals of this class of stock are not much more than they were 50 years ago. This is all the more remarkable in view of the tre mendous expansion that has been go ing on in almost every line of agri culture. Sheep should be kept on the average farm to aid in keeping down weed - life. When weeds are young and sappy the sheep are in a sense insati able devourers of the same. There are but few kinds of weeds that they will not trim down and consume and turn into good mutton if they have access to the same at a comparatively early stage in the growth of the weeds. When other pasture is not overabundant this cropping down of weeds will be more complete than under other conditions. They will even keep down, at least in a consid erable degree, the growth of Canada thistles when thus managed. They are equally ravenous also for the seeds of the weeds. When these have been formed and even when mature, and when weed seeds have been de voured by them, they are so finely ground that they do not grow again when dropped upon the ground. 1 have watched sheep when first turned into a grain pasture to see what was their first choice. When such weeds as lambsquarter ‘were present and quite young and succulent, they would take these first in preference to the grain. They should be kept to consume the waste products. On every farm these abound more or less. .They abound not only in the form of weeds, but in the form of grasses of various Jtinds. These are found numerously in the grain fields after the grain has been reaped. They are found in the high ways, beside the farms, and they are found along fence borders whatsoever may be the build of these. The sheep that are given access to these will virtually clean up everything and in good form. The food thus eaten would otherwise be wasted, at least It would in large measure. They should be kept to supply meat for the household. The farmer is much prone to confine hi3 meat diet lo salt pork, and largely for the rea son that in this form meat is most easily kept. Where sheep are kept upon the farm the farmer may have fresh meat and of a delicious char acter by killing and dressing occa sionally a mutton from his Hock. With a good place to keep such meat, as an apartment in au ice house, he may enjoy such meat in warm weather. I!ut even in the absence ol such a place he may partake of such food during much of the year—that is, during all portions of the same when the weather is cool enough to enable him to keep such meat in a good condition. In this way much of the meat may be grown to meet the needs of tjte farm from products that would otherwise be wasted. Sheep ought to be kept because ol the influence which they exert upon fertility. No ciass of animals kept upon the farm will equal them in the favorable influences thus exerted. - This arises first, from the readily available condition in which the drop pings reach the soil; second, from the scattered condition in which they reach the land, and, third, from the general distribution of the dropping over the land. In this way sheep leave the land richer in available fer tility when they graze upon it than it was when the grazing began. Thus it is that the proverb has arisen that the sheep has a golden hoof. And It is founded on the truth. INJURY DONE IN REMOVING WEEDS Most Beneficial Method Is to Burn Them Where They Are and Scatter Ashes. The usual thing is \ghen the weeds have been loosened to remove them bodily. Now, in doing this it is al most impossible to avoid removing a part of the upper surface of the gar den. It may be only an inch or two. but that inch is just the best of the ground. This is the height of folly. One reads of the thrifty F'rench gardeners removing so many inches of their soil when they have to quit out. There is an agreement to that effect. The soil that they have im proved with years of labor and care is a “tenant's fixture," so to speak, and they take it with them. What goes on in too many of our gardens is just the reverse. Instead of going away and bringing the soil with us—that is the wealth of our gardens —we stay and the soil goes, thrown out on the rubbish heap to form part of an eyesore and nuisance to the rest of the establishment. These things should not be so. In the Utopia of weil-managed farms and gardens, of which we now and then have an inkling, there will be no rubbish at all, for what is rubbish? Burning is wasteful when it is weeds not yet gone to seed that are consumed. It Is another matter in dealing with such things a:, old stumps, roots and bad weeds that preserve their vitality over the win ter. For them there must be the cleansing fires. But why make them away to a rubbish heap? Why not rather burn them where they lie. at once and scatter the ashes there. This plan acts beneficially in more ways than one. It saves twe cartings and it is always easier to do a job of this sort at qnce. Beside, rubbish, even if left for but a few weeks, will be found to have afforded free quar ters to an appalling, if interesting ex tent, to slugs and other garden pests. These rubbish heaps! What trou blesome, unlovely things they are. At a certain old homestead that I have in my mind's eye. the practice Is in full swing. All ashes and con ditions of things find their way, not alone from the garden, but from the dwelling, to a hollow jus^ out of sight of the house and garden. Here are "pegged out” any amount of extraor dinary things—broken pottery, papers, sardine tins, tin meat cans, probably In their virgin state, and old hat's, and there they lie until someone finds time to set fire to the heap, a blot of unsightliness amid so much natural charm. Hog Sheds. Hog sheds need not be expensive, but they should be dry, tight enouglf to exclude rains and snow3, and also capable of being well ventilated in summer when the weather is hot and shade is needed. Beet Farmer. If one farmer raises 40 bushels of corn per acre and another raises 80, what chance has the 40-bushel farmer af competing with the 80-bushel farm er? It is barely possible that the 80 busbel farmer is the 40-acre farmer. BIRDS EXCEL AS WEED DESTROYERS Some Songsters Depend Almost Exclusively on Weed Seeds —Crow Kills Mice. Weeds, as well as insects, are ene- | mies o? the farmer. Most weeds are short-lived and depend for their con tinuance on a prolific seed production, i There is a class of birds that, in maturity, feeds almost exclusively on weed seeds, among which the gros i beaks, goldfinches, native sparrows, j quail and doves are the more im- I portant. Probably the greediest seed eating birds, according to Mr. Pratt, are the native American tree sparrow and the chipping sparrow. Their i cousins, the English sparrows, how | ever, can by no means be included in the liet. Rats, mice and snakes are the prey of a numerous class of birds, many of which are often hunted and branded as great destroyers of property. If it were not for owls and hawks the country would be overrun with ro dents, according to Mr. Pratt. The crow has his place for good as a de stroyer of field mice and the farm owl j is the night watchman who hunts gophers, mice and 6nakes. Not all hawks are useful. Those that circle around in the sky and swoop down with stealthy movement on their prey are great boons, but the darter, those that take their prey on the wing, are ruthless destroyers. Early Spring Pigs. \ After being weaned, early spring pigs may be run on alfalfa, rape, clover or grain pastures with a sup plemental feed of grain until some crop is ready to hog off. During the summer, mature crops of barley, wheat and peas, with alfalfa or rape pasture, will carry them until the main crops are harvested. They then glean the stubble fields and feed on standing corn In the field, roots, pumpkins, etc., until late in the fall. They may be sold direct ly from the cornfield cr may be fed for a few weeks before being mar keted. Feed for Dairy Cows. Dairy farmers are seeking a more economical and dependable source of feed for their cows, and gradually ex perience is directing them to a more liberal production of silage and af falfa hay. Plant in Spring. Peaches, plums, cherries and all stone fruits are to be planted in spring. Pen for Little Chicks. A feeding pen for little chicks should be centrally located where the chicks can be run to it at any time, and the older birds can not get at it. As soon as a hen calls her chicks to get a choice morsel, every hen in hear ing runs to rob them of it. Cost of Heifer. In Connecticut the average net cost to grow a heifer to two years is $66, while in Michigan to grow steers to one year of age and to a weight of 800 pound* costs $27.60.
