of selecting names for the streets of the british empire exhlbi- uonbeing held at wembly devising names is never quite so easy as it sounds and the promoters of the ex hibition display a very proper and very british unwillingness to des cend to the american ignominy of numbering the streets in fact the only way to have a street properly named is either to glvo the national spirit a chance to work through a couple ot centuries or else to hand the job over to a genius not having the centuries to spare the directors of tho exhibition picked out tho most available genius tho choice of mr kipling

bubbles then ho twists and shapes them into figures much as a gla6s blower fashions objects from bubbles of hot glass flowers fruits animals and fishes the candyman blows and when he has completed a figure he hangs it on a nail in the edge ot his stand all the while the candyman is- work ing he entertains the children with humorous remarks or with wild tales of adventure in which the successful hero is usually a man who eats quan tities of candy ono droll old candy man who always kept his head neatly wrapped in a towel while ho worked would say now little mastors my candy is tho best candy for tho hair if you eat my candy you will never lose a hair from your heads i have not lost a hair for ten years with that he would pull off the towel and show his bald head oh some seriousminded young ster would cry how did you lose your hair if you ate candy little master the funny old fel low would reply if i had always eaten candy i should still have my beautiful hair but one day i stopped and ate cake instead my hairs were so angry at the change that they all pulled themselves out by the roots and ras down my back tickling me all the way they crawled off in the grass and never came

pasture land a flock of sheep is one of the most profitable side lines n farmer can carry a great many more farmers would keep sheep if the dog menace could be reduced or eliminated some ten years ago we surrounded our farm with a wovenwire fence with several fields cross fenced with the same kind of fencing sinco then straydog intrusion on our farm has been reduced almost to zero on neigh boring farms here with poor outside fences sheep losses from dogs have been heavy financially disastrous in cases we also see to it that our sheep come homo at ieast every night to accomplish this we keep a box of salt for them continually at the barn and we offor tho older sheep a little grain every night and morning even when pastures are good this brings the flock home tho older sheep leading and it

tables bureaus and chairs usually of old style and honesty workmanship perhaps the fin ish has been marred perhaps some other trifling defect has caused them to be put aside in favor of newer articles when these bits of furniture wero cast aside or stored away they were worth but little it is unnecessary to point out the advance in the cost of furniture or the scarcity of the woods which were used so freely in the old days you may reason that they will go still higher if they are rare pieces maybe they will it is human nature to prefer neat and attractive articles over dusty and marred ones any auctioneer will verify this so it may be profitable to have the worn articles refinished and repaired before offering themfor sale they will bring more than enbujjn to pay for this expense you may sell them privately or some reliable furniture dealer would probably sell them on commission there may be articles too damaged to sell perhaps they are made of black walnut or other woods now in
