~» GETTING THE CROWD [N LINE. Showing the Methods of the Resource- ful Street Faker. Two bellizerent faced each other. “You're a liar.” “You're a yellow pup.” “Fight!” shrieked a small boy. Then a crowd of curious began to gather in front of the Grant building in upper Market street, “If you're looking for trouble I guess I can give it to you,” hissed the “lar” &etween his teeth. “You can place a bet that I intend to see things to a finish,” replied the “pup,” striking a fighting pose. “Come around the corner where a cop won’t bother us, then,” said the first, and, war thus declared, the duo hastened around to an empty lot be- hind the post office, while a crowd of bloodthirsty men- and boys dogged at their heels. Arrived, the “Har” mounted a wood- en platform newly built, while the “pup” dove into a dry goods box and extracted therefrom a bulging suit- case. “While the ‘doctor’ gets out the packages of our magical herbs, guar- antced to cure cancer, bunions, all skin diseases, ete., I will entertain you with a few sleight of hand tricks,” announced the “liar” in stentorian tones. The crowd then realized that it had been gulled. slunk away, but the majority re- mained to fall victims to the wiles of the wily medical fakers anqg their cure- 21l at "one dollar per package, and & pair of cuff buttons, warranted solid gold, thrown in.”—San Francisco Call. appearing men MAN A REAL LOVER OF BIRDS. Has Provided 3,000 Nesting Boxes on His Estate. At least one man with a big estate bas made use of it to help birds to live there instead of turning it into a sort of open air slaughterhouse. He is Baron von Berlepsch and his estate in Thuringia is a bird sanctuary. According to a writer in the Pall Mall Magazine, he has planted trees and bushes favorable to the birds he wants to cultivate and has supplied 3,000 nesting boxes in addition. Of these 3,000 box out of every 100 were occupied last spring. Tn ons thicket, g little streteh planted with low bushes, there were 100 nests built by the birds at the rate of a nest to every foot of space. A close hedge of whitehorn and wild roses protects the grounds on the village side from the children who might want to come e-birdnesting, and ingeniously con- trived traps await marauding crea- tures. f Working Nurses Needed. A New York woman says that there Is a great demand for nurses in the [amilies of ordinary people who might be able to pay from $10 to $15 a week, but would expect the nurse to not pnly help with the sick ones, but as- sist with the work that is so much greater when there is sickness in the family. The trained nurse as a gen- eral thing would scorn to do anything tlse but her work proper, and she has her rights, but it will certainly be a goad thing for the conntry when some pne establishes a kind of working purse who is not above helping those who ca ¢ d to > the trained purse and servant as well and are, ander YWn servants.

The discussions will be lead by Professor M. L. King, former- ly connected with the Agricultural Experiment Station at Ames, Iowa. Professor King has studied silos and silo conditions from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and has done a large share of the work in the development of the most popular type of clay silos in use today. Over one thousand of i these silos were built in lowa last vear. He has found in his work, old silos which invalidate the Harder patents by reason of which, many firms have been able to charge mono- ipoly prices.
