Those '"who1 have -seen Antipater
Phipps on the streets'! Betzville re
cently 'have noticed his sad mien and
the eight-inch band, of' crepe around
his hat; and nearly ailrhave'known his
loss, Imt few know how deeply Antip
ater has suffered., .About .a -year ago
Antipater teas learning ito,play the.
flute, and one evening he .was sitting
on his front jsteps, -with his legs
crossed and. fluting away for all he
-was, worth, when- he happened to
glance down and saw a sight which
surprised him. Just "before him, on
the walk. 'a fishwormras we call them
in Betzville, or an angleworm, as they
are sometimes called when spoken of
at one of Aunt Rhinocolura Bettz's
fcv. all functions, was standing on its
tail, swaying gently, to the sweet
strains of the flute, on. which Antipa
ter was playing "When Johnnie Comes
Marching Home."
I Antipater had heard of snake charm
ers, but he had never known that a
fishworm could be charmed in the
same way, and he was so interested
that he played on until the fishworm
was so exhausted with its continued
dancing that it fell panting at his feet
And even then, when Antipater went
on with the music, the worm would
hop onto its tail and wiggle a few
weak wiggles until it absolutely
couldn't wiggle any more. When Antl
later did up his flute and started into
the house the worm tried to hop up I
It Would Hop Out and Love Up to An
for Lack
the steps after him, but it did not
have enough resiliency, or spring, so
Antipater had to' lift it up the steps.
AVben Antipater went to bed the worm
-curled itself up meekly on the floor
and slept there very soundly, for it was
quite worn out, it had danced so hard.
( The next day as soon as Antipater
woke he saw the worm, and all that
day he played' the flute, to it, and so
on into the night, but about three
-o'clock in the morning a committee
of neighbors came in and told Antip
ater that if he did not stop fluting im
xpediately and forever they wouid let
im choose any one of 18 telephone
poles on which to be hung. They
told him that if he was anyone else
they would not even allow him to
choose the pole, but seeing that it was
him. he could have his choice. So
the day after that Antipater did not
flute at all.
i The fishworm hung around all that
day in a coaxing attitude, just beg
ging Antipater to start, up "When
Johnnie Comes Marching Home." but
Antipater did not dare. He repulsed
the worm coldly and told it to scoot,
as we might say. For a while the
worn: VxX.z hout, hoping against hope,
and then Antipater saw a sigh pass
from one end of it to the other, and it
started in n straight line for the creek
and crawled into the water. When
Antipater saw what the worm was do
ing he made a dash for it, but he was
too late: just as he reached the water
a big German carp dashed up and
swallowed the worm., Antipater wept
with remorse.. There- was nothing
much else that be could do. for when.
carp, swallows a worm, it is, as
might beVaid, good;by worm.
But Antipater did what he could to
make reparation. Every evening he
-would steal down to the bank of the
creek to. the spot where the worm had
disappeared. nd play "When Johnnty
Gomes Marching Home" in sweet, sad
tones. For the first- two or three eve
nings nothing happened. It took that
long for the carp to thoroughly digest
the worm and assimilate it into its be
ing, probably, but when the worm be
came really a part of the carp, the
carp felt it. - The third evening, as
Antipater Phipps was flaying his sad
requiem the old carp stuck its head
pat of "the .water,, and -rolled, its sad,
large eyes, and the tears poured out
of this. The next nigifCthe carp was
still jnore, overconift, a&d, when "Anti
pater began to play it wiggled out of
the water and went up. and sat on tht
s - x 1V M
tarp
PETER. NEWELL
log beside Antipater,, and they wept
in unison, until Antipater's tears ran
down into the flute and made it
gurgle' like a juicy, pipe.
Antipater did not know whether he
loved the carp more because it was a
soulful carp .or because it was the last
resting, place of the dancing worm
he only knew he loved it. Sometimes
he looked upon the carp as a sort of
finny gravej'ard in which the late
worm reposed, and sometimes, as the
poet says.
"The carplet on the creeklet's brim
A simple carplet was to him,"
but he loved the carp more and more
as the days went by, and made it his
constant companion. Of course there
were difficulties. The carp could not
stay out of the water long at a time.
It would hop out and love up to An
tipater until it got red in the face for
lack of breath, and then it would hop
into the croek again and breathe, and
when it had breathed It would hop
out again, and snuggle up to Anti
pater. Often it showed, by its actions,
that it would like to follow Antipater
home, but it knew better than to get
far from the water, and when Antipa
ter went it would flop a few yards
with him and then wave him a fare
well with its tail and flop, back to the
creek.
About three weeks ago Antipater
and the carp were sitting on their log.
gazing at the sunset while Antipater

played the flute, when a black and
white form burst from the bushes. It
was a dog. and Antipater saw it was
foaming at the mouth. It would have
been an easy matter for the carp to
have plunged into the creek, but when
it saw the dog making for Antipater
the faithful creature sprang lightly
between Antipater and the dog. By
the time Antipater could seize a rock
and kill the dog the faithful carp was
severely bitten, but it made light of it
and wagged its tail cheerfully.
Last Monday when Antipater went,
down to' tne 'creek with his flute he
saw a sad sight. The carp, with glar
ing eyes and foaming mouth, was try
ing to flops far as possible from the
water, having the hydrophobic fear of
it, and Antipater saw there was noth
ing he could do. If the carp was put
into the water it would have a
paroxysm and die, and if it stayed
away from the water it would die for
lack of breath. So Antipater drew out
his flute and played "When Johnnie
Comes Marching Home," and the carp
arose on its tail and danced one or
two wiggles and dropped dead. That
same afternoon Antipater Phipps took
his flute to the-plumber's and. had the
touch holes plugged up. He says he
will never play again.

A MYSTERY. ,""
Belinda lias a gentle face
And spiritual style.
She moves about with languid grace
Andiviears a plaintive smile.
And yet she'll eat a box or two
Of candy ere each day la through.
And sections vast of pic and cake
And everything they broil or bake
And all the while her glance will gleam
With delicate, disdain
As if her life was but a dream.
Beyond this earthly' plane.
Our rugged ways we all lament
With genuine distress. -
She seems a chiding vision sent
Of fleeting loveliness.
But half the salad she devours
Would keep a man awake for hours.

There is nothing in this universe
that will continually give big profits

and cared for.
The grains are harvested and the
barns filled with hay, clover and other
roughage. It is now left for the care

Chief among these is the brood sow.
Ker value is too often under-estimated
and considering the present short
age of hogs it will pay us to give her
mere attention.
A box of salt and ashes should be

The ideal plan of handling the brood

not mean corn alone, but a mixture of
com and oats, wlth-poesibly an addi

As soon as the bare wood on a wa

When the hedge has attained a

If you have had an incubator this
past season, and did not obtain satis
factory results with it, carefully re
view your whole season's work and
experience with it, and by so doing
learn the cause of your several fail
ures. Although the present bright outlook
for grain growing and comparatively
high prices paid for it has "doubtless
given the stock business a percept
able' setback in some of our newer
stock sections, we do not believe the
reversion is nearly so great as some
seem to think it is.
It is impossible for the mind to
comprehend the benefit that would
be derived from the practice of pas
turing a few sheep on every farm in
the corn belt. If this could be done
we would have a country without
weeds and from my standpoint that
would be the millennium.
If scours trouble the pigs give
strong lime water to the sow and add
it to the feeds. Sulphur likewise is
very beneficial given in feeds or wa
ter. If pigs can drink give skim milk
with lime water and wheat flour
added. If tod small to drink give four
or five drops paregoric occasionally.
Hogs that have had access to plenty
of green pasture are less liable to
be disturbed by green or new corn
than those previously- kept in dry lots.
Where they have been pastured on
rape or green, succulent food of that
character, the risk is greatly dimin
ished. Pumpkins are excellent feed
for hogs about to be put on green corn.
'They supply succulence, and their
seeds serve well as a vermifuge.

i. Entertainments .for charity, both
'elaborate and simple, are engrossing

A most attractive .booth at one' of
these affairs is worthy of description;
it may be carried out with very little
expense, which: is an -item to be con
sidered. It. was called t"TheMornlng
Glory Fair." Thespace occupied was'
triangular, and the foundation of sides
and front Was constructed of bamboo
poles. Interlaced over this was a. be
wildering tangle of morning glories in
delicate lavender, pink, blue and
white. The attendants wore thin
gowns of these same colors with lin
gerie bats trimmed with wreaths of
morning glories.
Under a large umbrella, which was
completely covered with "glories," tea
and wafers were served. Each guest
was presented with a morning glory
clipped from the trellis. These blos
soms pinned to coat lapel and gown
served to advertise "morning glory"
tea. They were made of crepe tissue
paper of various hues.
For serving cocoa there was a booth
representing Holland. Delft blue, yel
low, tulips, wooden shoes holding
ferns, and- the attendants garbed ex
actly like the maiden on the cocoa
cans so familiar to all of us.
Quaint mugs of blue were used to
serve this piping' hot beverageT . A

toasted graham crackers accompanied
each order.
Novel Handkerchief Shower.
X most enjoyable, shower was given
recently to a January bride, which in
cluded the bridegroom and. other men.
The girls brought one "mouchoir" for
the bride and the men one for the
bridegroom. They were accompanied
by sentiments written on heart-shaped
cards. After the merry presentation
there was an informal little dance.
There were Just 20 guests, all inti
mate friends.
Authors Guessing Contest.
The requests for contests come in
with a regularity that would put the
"little brook" of Tennyson fame in

ever. The correspondent who asks
for a contest for her club may find
this suited to her needs. It is not
new, butso old that with the resur
rection of all old things it may be
strange; at any rate, I give it with
the hope that every one who may
need it in the future will cut it out:

SILHOUETTES OF
WESTERN CANADA
.
The mas from Iowa began to talk
land before the train was well out of
the C. N. R, depot in Winnipeg. The
talk began In rather wide circles. The
rush to the land, the bumper crop, the
system of summer fallowing pursued
in the semi-arid districts, were all
discussed, and then, with a sort of
apologetic smile, the Iowa man said:
"I'm a bit Interested In this country
myself. Some of the men down home,
got a few sections up here along this
line, and I'm going to have a look at
them. Never been up in Canada be
fore" (it Is curious how these mid
western Americans pronounce the
name of the Dominion as if it was
"Can'dy") "but if it looks good we
will be up to stay next fall."
"You see. It's like this," said the
man"f rom, Iowa quite manifestly con
tinuing an argument that had been go
ing on in his mind for some time.
"Back in our State land has become
dear. Anybody wanting to sell can
get 70 or 80 an acre for it, and
every farm that's offered Is snapped
up. In Saskatchewan we have just as
good land that cost us $11. and $12, so
that a man can ''ake up five or six
times as much there as in Iowa on the
same investment of money.
"It isn't the money, though, that
brings most of us up from Iowa. I'm
not sure that money would be enougk.
The 'Invasion' is a family affair. We
have no chance of- keeping our sons
around us back home. They have
to leave the farm and go Into the big
cities of the neighboring States to get
work. To keep them on the farm and
In touch with us. we come up here
and make little colonies with the chil
dren around us, on homesteads or
bought land. This makes it easier for
the farmers back there in Iowa to get
land for the stay-at-homes. The fam
ilies that come to Canada are kept
together and the families that buy
the farms they leave are kept to
gether, too. There won't be any slack
ening of the rush, either, for they still
raise big families back in Iowa."
One could almost see the mental
process of this typical American farm
er in defending a step that meant a.
new flag, a new allegiance, a new
land, and new associates. To aban
don Old Glory of the Declaration of
Independence for a good thing in
cheap land would hardly be playing
the game, but to go out into Sas
katchewan to "keep the family togeth
er," was another and a quite higher
motive.
Why seek too closely to analyze the
reasons for the greatest land trek in
the history of America? It is enough
