for This Most Serious
Outbreak.
Vienna. Traceable to the high
price of the necessaries of life riots
broke out Sunday and many persons
were killed or wounded. Troops fired
on the mob, which had erected barri

fierce exchange of bullets and the sol
diers were pelted with all sorts of mis
siles. Following a huge socialistic demon
stration outside the Rathhaus, held
for the purpose of protesting against
the high price of food, it became nec
essary to call out troops to dispense
the rioters. In the early clashes fifty
of the rioters were wounded and 100
arrested.
Fifty thousand persons were present

es were made, demanding that the

MONOGRAMS ON CHOICE FRUIT
Clever Little Trick Performed by Past-
ing on Perforated Paper Before
Apples Color.
A story comes from Oregon to the
effect that the big fruit growers in
that section are now growing mon
ograms on their choice fruit It en
hances their value in the big markets
In the east It is claimed that a large
grower of fancy apples at Hood River
now places the mongram of a prom

tion of his crop. This is done by
pasting perforated paper labels con

Ink
The Best Grafting' Wax.
Rosin four parts (ounces . or
pounds); beeswax two parts; tallow
one part; melted slowly in an iron ves
sel, putting in the rosin five or ten
minutes before the beeswax; and all
completely mixed together by much
stirring.
In 20 minutes or so it will be thor
oughly mixed, and a convenient por
tion is to be poured into a bucket of
cold water. In a minute or less it will
be cool enough to take up with the
bands (which must be greased with
tallow) and pulled like taffy. When it
becomes light yellow in color it is
done and can be made into sticks or
balls and put into another vessel of
cold water to harden.
Other portions can be treated in the
same way until all Is used up. These
balls, or sticks, of convenient size can
be laid away until required for use.
The Brown Slug.
The little brown slug that defoliates
tbe pear, plum and cherry trees during
the summer season is one of the
easiest of pur insects to control. No
one need allow this insect to do any
serious harm to his trees, if he will
thoroughly use the remedy here given
Steep two ounces of fresh white helle
bore in one gallon of water, and use
as a spray when tbe slugs are first
seen. Stir the mixture often; or,
better yet have an agitator attach
ment on the pump. Sometimes there
Is a second brood of the slugs, neces
sitating a second spraying.
Late Cabbage.
The late cabbage will need close at
tention for tbe next month. Clear
tillage is essential and nitrate of soda
may be necessary tu secure a rapid
growth. Use about 100 pounds per
acre and apply broadcast A second
application of nitrate may be profit
able. There are probably very few ia
stances wbere It will not be profit
able to use nitrate of soda on either
early or late cabbage.
Culture of Fruit Trees.
The reason fruit trees planted In
fence corners and out of the way
places do not thrive generally may be
found In the fact that they are not
cultivated.
If a man sells fruit of which he ia
ashamed then he should throw away
his stencil and conceal all evidence
of bis ownership.
Soil for Orchards.
It the orchard has been cultivated
up to this time it may be sown broad
cast with any of the crops for gather
Ing nitrogen, such as clover, field peat
or barley.
It is a great mistake topick out the
poorest soli on tbe place"on which tc
plant the orchard. The best is none
i too good. .

GREAT TRUTH IN EPIGRAM
Few Words ef the Late Edwin A. Ab
bey Contain a Whole Sermon
to Misers.
"The late Edwin A. Abbey, the
American painter who lived in Lon
don, was only comfortably off, where
as he might have been rich."
The speaker, a Chicago art dealer,
had just returned from Europe. He
continued:
"I dined one evening with Abbey in
his house in Chelsea, and after dinner
we walked in the blue twilight on the
Chelsea embankment
"As we passed Old Gwan House anil
Clock House, and the other superb
residences that front the river, I re
proached Abbey for his extravagance.
"Why I said, pointing toward
Clock House, 'if you had saved your
money, you might be living In a pal
ace like that today.'
"But Abbey, with a laugh, rather
got the better of me. He rattled oft
this epigram and It's an epigram I'll
always remember when I'm tempted
to be parsimonious:
" "Some folks,' he said, 'are so busy
putting something by for a rainy day
that they get little or no good out of
pleasant weather."

Marlon's mother was ill, and the
aunt who took hor place at the head
of the household plied the children
with unaccustomed and sometimes dis
liked articles of diet One day. after
being compelled to eat onlofs, Marion
refused to say grace.
"Then you must sit at the table un
til you are ready to- say it!" was the
aunt's stern judgment An hour or
so later, when the brilliant sunshine
and Impatient calls of her comrades
together comprised an irrestible ap
peal, Marion capitulated thus:
"Ob, Lord, make me thankful for
having had to eat horrid old onions,
if you can do it. But I know you
can't"

A HIT
What She Gained by Trying Again.
A failure at first makes us esteem
final success.
A family In Minnesota that now en
joys Postum would never have known
how good It is If the mother had been
discouraged by the failure of her
first attempt to prepare it Her son
tells the story:
"We bad never used Postum till last
spring when father brought home a
package one evening Just to try it. Wo
had heard from our neighbors, and in
fact every one who used it how well
they liked It.
"Well, the next morning Mother
brewed it about five minutes, just as
she had' been in the habit of doing
with coffee without paying special at
tention to the directions printed on
the package. It looked weak and
didn't have a very promising color, but
nevertheless father raised bis cup
with an air of execptancy. It certain
ly did give him a great surprise, but
I'm afraid it wasn't a very pleasant
one, for he put down his cup with a
look of disgust
i Mother wasn't discouraged though,
nd next morning gave it another trial,
jetting It stand on the stove till boil
tog began and then letting it boil for

Diary of a F'y-K filer.
Monday My attention was called
last night to a statement that house
flies are bearers of disease and should
be destroyed as soon as possible. I
began my crusade against them this
morning. It was a little discouraging,
because there was on'y one fly in the
house and it was quite agile. It es
caped me. I broke two vases and a
photograph frame.
Tuesday I nearly killed three flies
this afternoon, but tne lamp got in
the way. It was a $7 lamp.
Wednesday I saw a fly on the out
side of the fly screen and raised the
screen so I could hit It. Seventeen
flies flew in. I missed it
Thursday There was a sluggish
looking fly on the window with closed
wings. I stole toward it cautiously,
but It flew up just as I let the blow
fall. Then I knew it wasn't a fly. It
was a wasp. My nose began to swell
at once.
Friday My nose is a sight. Drat
the flies. Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Practical Illustration.
To shorten a long Sunday afternoon
for Fred, aged eight, his mother told
him that he might illustrate the twenty-third
Psalm in any way he chose.
Quiet reigned for a time, as Fred,
busy with pencil and pad, drew
'shepherd" and "green pasture," "rod
and staff." Then a silence ensued,
followed by a noisy clatter which
brought his mother to the room. Fred
was busily arranging a train of cars,
a toy gun. marbles, etc., on the table.
"What are you doing, Fred?"
"Why," he answered, "these are the
presents of my enemies."
