"You won’t be lonesome,” said Mrs.
Uammerslee as she bade her husband
good bv, “for your Aunt Sally is com
ing into town for a day’s shopping,
and will pass the night at our house.
I wrote her that we’d take her to the
theater to-night and then when mother
sent for me to go up to the country
so suddenly it all went out of my
mind. But you must take her, Ches
j ter.”
"All right, May,” answered Ram
tnerslee good naturedly. He was fond
i of his Aunt Sally, who was just his
I own age and did not look a day older
than his pretty young wife.
She was unusually blooming that
night when she arrived and Rammers
lee said to himself that he had never
realized what a handsome girl she
was.
“That’s a stunning hat,” he told her.
“I'm glad you like it,” returned
Sally. “I bought it to-day, for I
wanted to do you credit.”
There was an impressive rustle of
silk when Sally appeared in the hall
after dinner in a delicate opera wrap.
He helped her into the taxicab in the
gay humor a man is apt to feel when
he has a congenial, pretty and well
dressed woman by his side.
This pleasant feeling vanished for
a moment as he and Sally walked
down the aisle of the theater and he
heard in the clear undertone of the
familiar voice of one of the men in
his affice.
“I wondeg where Rammerslee got
that baby doll?”
He was tempted to stop and crush
the fellow with an introduction to his
aunt, but Sally was sweeping onward
behind the hurrying usher, so. swal
lowing his wrath, he sedately fol
lowed. When they took their seats
and the embroidered cloak fell from
Sally’s shoulders, Rammerslee felt a
thrill of mingled astonishment and ad
miration as he beheld her white neck
gleaming above the glittering folds of
a bespangled decollete evening gown.
Rammerslee noted with discomfort
that two or three pairs of opera
glasses were turned toward his com
panion. His nerves were not quieted
by the discovery that the owners were
men of his acquaintance.
“You are glaring like a lion,” re
marked Sally. “Why are you so
fierce. Chester?”
“I was just thinking that everybody
who knows me knows that my wife is
a pronounced blonde,” he replied.
“I don’t see wdiy that should cause
you to look as if you wanted to eat
somebody." said Sally, with a laugh
that set the dark ringlets around her
face dancing bew itehingly.
Coming out of the theater Sally
said: “The play was delightful, Ches
ter. I don-' know when I have en
joyed an evening so much."
Feeling a sudden pang of conscience
at the unkindness of his thoughts,
Rammerslee remarked: “Well, the
evening isn't over yet. I'm going to
take you to supper at Martin’s.”
As they walked the short distance
to the restaurant Sally talked so
vivaciously of family affairs that Ram
merslee forgot his annoyance and he
received the welcoming bows and
knowing smiles of the head waiter
with a somewhat pleasantly flattered
feeling of importance. He followed
the waiter into the rather dimly light
ed rear room of the cafe and seated
Sally at the table to whch he led
them and which was secluded behind
a group of palms. Then as thp head
waiter assisted him to remove his
overcoat he became conscious that the
man had something to communicate
to him.
excuse me lor mentioning it, Mr.
Rammeralee,” whispered the head
waiter deferentially, “but Mrs. Jtam
merslee's lirotiier and his wife are
down in the front and I thought may
be you’d rather sit hack here."
‘'You're a wonder,” said Rammers
lee in an indescribable tone and
: something slipped from his hand into
| the head waiter's.
‘‘You have given me a lovely time,”
i said Sally, when they reached home.
I "Thank you so much, Chester. And.
Chester, did you think I looked—
nice?” she asked a little shyly.
“Nice? You are simply stunning.”
“You see. May wtote me to come
in town and get some pretty clothes
and have a good time. She rather in
timated that you feared I was getting
old maidish. So I decided to try to
brighten myself up a bit,. So you real
ly thing 1 was successful?”
“Well, rather! I tell you what, Sally
May’s coming home in the morning
and you've got to stay over and come
to my office with her and I'll take you
both to lunch at my club. We’ll show
them."
"Show them what?”
‘‘Never mind Run on to bed or
you'll lose those roses in your cheeks.
You may look just as pretty to-mor
row as you can and I won’t care—I
won't care a bit.”
So Unreasonable.
"Yes. she snapped, viciously, "you
said if t would elope and marry you
we would fly to a land of milk and
honey, and live on the fat of the land.

CENSUS WILL DEVELOP DATA
Expected to Show Many Important
i Features as to Present Status
of the American Farmer.
United States Census Director Du
rand states that the new inquiries in
‘•"S general agricultural schedule for
the census of 1910 are expected to de
velop important data on the question*
whether or not the native American
| farmer is holding his own against
the foreign homemaker in this coun
try; the age period when the "hired
farm hand” becomes an independent
farmer himself; the age when the ten
ant farmer ceases to be a "renter"
and becomes an owner; and also con
cerning other vital facts relat've to
the social and industrial tendencies
among the millions of tillers of the
soil in the first decade of the twen
tieth century.
The new questions were added to
the farm schedule by authority of the
act of congress providing for the thir
teenth and subsequent decennial cen
sus, but United States Census Di
rector Durand was instructed to de
termine the form and subdivision of
inquiries—in other words, to frame
the main questions and the sub-inquir
ies concerning the 58 groups of topics
embraced in the schedule.
As approximate accuracy in the re
turns from the enumeration depends
not only upon the supervision and
enumerators, but largely also upon
the form of the schedule, Census Di
rector Durand called into consulta
tion with himself and his administra
tive staff this summer a number of
farm economists and farfu-manage
ment experts who assisted in the pre
paration of the questions with a view
to simplicity and clarity of language
and the avoidance of technical terms
not in common use. A comparison of
the new schedule with the one used
in the census of 1900 shows that great
progress has been made in this di
rection. It is believed the enumera
tors will have less difficulty in under
standing what information the 1910
schedule is trying to bring out and
that the farmers will be able to give
fuller and more accurate replies. The
new schedule will also facilitate the I
use of a more thorough system of
office checking whereby inaccuracies
may be discovered.
The new inquiries fall into three
classes: First, those seeking infor
mation not obtained by former cen
suses; second, those calling for more
extensive data on previous census !
topics; and, finally, those concerning
conditions or industries which have
arisen since the last census
In the first class are those inquiries
concerning the age of the farmer and
the country of his birth; mortgage in- i
debtedness; acreage to be planted to j
crops in the year 1910; breed of pure
bred animals, and acreage of mixed
timothy and clover hay.
In the second class are the inquiries
relative to the amount of feed pur
chased for livestock and the amount j
and value of livestock purchased; the
value of eggs sold; value of wax sold,
separate from honey, and amount of
pasture land under irrigation,
In the third class the new questions
provide for the separation of wheat j
into its various varieties—common
spring, common winter, Durum or !
macaroni, Kmmer, and spelt; for the
increase of the number of the varie
ties of vegetables from 7 to 12; for
the addition of guinea fowls and pig- '
eons to the poultry list; for the state
ment of the amount received for
standing timber; for the amount ot
woodland on the farm; and for the
amount received for pasturing domes
tic animals.
The farmers’ answers concerning (
their ages should throw much light on j
social conditions in agriculture. From
these it will be possible to calculate
with reasonable accuracy the age
when a young man passes out of the
ranks of the “hired farm hand” and I
becomes either a tenant or owner of a
farm, possessing his own implements,
machinery, livestock and property.
The answers will help fix the age at
which a farmer may expect to stop
being a “renter” and arrive at the dig
nity of ownership of the soil. Whether
or not it is becoming more and more
difficult for an American farmer to
rise from the "tenant” class to that
of farm ownership will be pretty .
clearly indicated by the classification
of mortgaged farms by age periods. If
formers under 35 have relatively, the
greatest mortgage indebtedness, it '
will oe tair tor stausticans to assume
that the indebtedness has been in
curred in the purchase of the farm.
Poultry Tonics
With the growth of the poultry in- !
dustry comes all kinds of schemes to
deplete the grower's pocket. Foods ;
and medicines of all kinds are offered. \
The praises of this tonic and that are '
loudly sung. You will hear how Mr. j
Smith had 150 hens and not an egg ■
until he fed the wonderful egg pro
ducer. and then 150 eggs per day.
The simple fact is that* good healthy
hens properly fed, do not need tonics |
any more than any healthy animals j
or human beings.
If the tonic contains some needed
food ingredient that you are not sup
plying. it may do good, not otherwise.
Hen Production
The .Amcricen hen produces annu- i
ally a crop equal in value to that of |
the winter ar.d spring wheat, and j
three times more valuable than the
woo! clip of the country. It is equal
to 2!£ times the value of the potato
crop, and largely iu excess of the
iarm value of all the oats raised in j
tbe laud- 1
