Cincinnati.--If some person were to approach live-year-old Jacques D. Rietze and maternally lisp, "1th *e 'itty boy 'appy ?** she'd probably receive some such amazing reply: "Exceedingly, madam. Playing with a miniature locomotive affords me great pleasure." If the minister should walk into the Rietse home and query of Jacques, "What was the greatest factor contributing to the defeat of the Ephraim- Ites at the Jordan?" the boy likely would reply: "They didn't know their pronunciation." Since he was four Jacques has been studying the Bible He has learned more of its contents In that time, perhaps, then the average Individual learns in a lifetime. He knows and can tarnish identities of Xebuchadnessar, Belshazsar, not to mention the more public characters of Moses, Nosh, and Abraham. He can deliver « sermon, quote scripture, and define "metaphysics,* as well as "ecclesiastic." His one handicap is speech. So aeslous is he to impart his knowledge of religious subjects to listeners that the words fairly tumble out ef his mouth. Consequently, he is rather difficult to understand In speech, as well as subject. Like normal boys of tils age, he delights with his toys, "but even at play he mumbles Biblical quotations to himself. Once a passage is read him he never forgets and can repeat it verba_ t im. & His mother first acquainted him with the Bible. A Tew preliminary readings, however, and Jacques took the initiative to learn more. Mrs. Kletse cannot explain her son's unusual* acumen and is fearful that he may become "not enough like other boys." However, when attempts are made to divert his mind to other subjects his day is spoiled, his mother declares. A month ago Jacques was ill. Noticing the distress of his mother, he calmly assured her, "Don't worry, mother. Christ will cure An Old Goat Pasture Now Colony of Wealth Toronto.--In the suburban village of Forest Hill there is perhaps a greater concentration of wealth and power than in any other place of its size in Canada. Scarcely more than half a dozen years ago a large portion of the site of the "millionaire village" was a goat pasture. Small boys used to drive cows to and from wooded fields night and morning. To make it easier <or his sons to find the right pasture field among many wooded fields, which looked more or less alike, one farmer placed a sign bearing the words, "Forest Hill," on a small hilltop. From that sign the village took its name when it was Incorporated in December, 1923i % the new Ilaag 75 makes fast work of laundering. Andf it takes just about all of the work out of it, too.

Riley ruled that an ex-wife is not entiUed to alimony if her pay check is larger than her ex-husband's--this, assuming there are no children in the wife's custody. Martin Jaten protested against paying his former wife, Violet, alimony because she earned more than he. The Judge upheld the husband's contention. STIR CREAM FOR .. UNIFORM SAMPLE Creamery Man Must Dip Into Middle of Milk Can. Have yon been dissatisfied with cream test? Did you ever imagine it might be your fault as well as the creamery's? During the cold weather your cream Is very thick and full of lumps and chunks. Every creamery receives several such cans daily. In order to give an honest test a uniform sample must be taken from each can. The only way the creamery man can get a uniform sample to make an accurate test Is to stir this cream to a smooth consistency. It would take longer to stir this cold cream than to churn it. He, therefore, dives down In the middle of the can^aati takes his sample foresting. If he took his sample out of the bottom of the can it wouldn't be fair to you, and at the top It wouldn't be fair to the creamery. Now, had you sent this cream to the creamery a smooth velvety consistency without ^pfahps, there would have been no difficulty getting an accurate sample, which means dollars In your pocket. •As soon as the cream Is cooled. It is poured into the shipping can or a vessel that holds that amount and the whole stirred, not with a spoon or ladle, as this only stirs the cream around and around in the can without mixing the first cream with the last. But stir with a regular cream stirrer, the kind that creameries use, with a broad lifting surface that will actually bring the bottom cream up and mix it with the top. Jtrtfae's Charge to Jury Sets a Brevity Record Valdosta, Chi.--Judge Bascom S. Deaver of the TTnited States court made a record for these parts In the brevity of a charge to a federal grand jury. Everybody was prepared to hear a charge dealing with the affairs of the district, with particular reference to the prohibition law. But Judge Deaver surprised all hands when his charge consisted of these 27 words: "Gentlemen, you will investigate violations of the laws of the United States, You will fix your own hours. The district attorney will assist yon. You may retire." And that was all. Prospective jurors hereabouts are hoping that a precedent has been established. Childhood Sweetheart Reunited in Old Age Oolumbus, Ohio.--Childhood sweethearts were reunited after a half-cenr tury here when John Fischer, seventyfour, and Mary Knifer, seventy-one, got a marriage license at the courthouse.

Cow SS Years OM Gothenburg, Sweden.--A cow twilr ty-eight years old, believed to be the oldest in Sweden, is living contentedly on a farm in the western province of Haliand. Considering that cows rarely reach more than twelve to fourteen years of age, this venerable "boesie" seems to have broken all Swedish records for longevity. Might Golfing on Tiny Links Is Latest Fad Syracuse, N. Y.--Night golf, made possible through floodlighting miniature courses, Is becoming a country hobliv, according to A. H.

Illumination is provided by 18 .r»<X>- watt floodlights, equipped with diffusing lenses to eliminate the glare. These tinder-sized links, Started in resort centers, grew in popularity and the demand spread rapidly to other states. Regularity in Milking Dairy Herd Is Essential Regularity has a dollars-and-cents value in handling the dairy herd. We Sometimes wonder If farmers as a Class are forgetting this. In the neighborhood with which we are best 'acquainted it was once the custom on almost all farms to st^rt milking at five In the morning in summer and six in winter. The hour was seldom varied and plans were always laid to be on hand at the proper time for chores, says a writer in the Montreal Family Herald. Now, on these same farms, the cows are milked all the way from six to eight o'clock, depending on how late the men were out the night before. If there Is something on in the evening the cows that were milked at eight may be milked again at five. This Is not a universal condition but it is a true statement of what happens on too many farms. These men are alas frank to admit that they are not getting the milk that they did years age before life became so hectic. We believe that farmers are entitled to a good time as well as any other class. Said good times, however, should not be allowed to interfere too seriously with regularity in attention to the dairy cows. Nor is It necessary. The men around who are still practicing old-time regularity seem to have their good times as well as tfieir more careless neighbors. Stdbah Build Hons* ffcnkton, 15.

Watch Cow's Diet Prior to Her Freshening Date Cows about ready to freshen should be kept handy to the barn where they may be watched and cared for. Equal parts ground oats and bran or two parts bran to one part corn meal are good grain feeds for the last two weeks. Cows should freshen in good flesh. The grain should be cut down just before calving. Cows after calving should get plenty of water and green feed with the laxative grain ration. If no pasture or green feed is available, use beet pulp soaked In three or four times its weight in water. The main grain mixture should be increased gradually, but grain should be fed sparingly until the cow is completely f r e e o f f e v e r . . . . William M. Carroll, Attorney.

Up to six months of age the calf should have milk as the principal ingredient of its ration. Supplementing the milk one may feed alfalfa or clover hay and grain mixture. This makes for normal growth and development, furnishing the necessary food in the best condition.
