In tho meantime there had been arevolution of feeling in the Prlnglofamily Martin had gone back to hisoffice after seeing his poor old motheron board tho train and AS it was A

cold day ho sat down before tho glowIng fire to warm his foot Tho walkfrom the station had been a long onehe seldom employed streetcars thewarm lire niado him drowsy and ItII probable that Ills days experiencewas answerable for the strange dreamthat he had The consciousness ofhaving done a supremely mean act IInot a restful pillow for a sleepingImagination and Mr Pringles playedhim a queer trick Ho thought howas at homo by his warm anthraciteflro when a stranger opened the doorand came in tall Impressive andstem Mr Prlnglo had no familiarword of greeting for Htm althoughho know Him at onto and Instinctive-ly It was tbo Savior of mankindand Ho stretched out A long majesticarm with an accusing forefingerpointed toward tho unflllal sonsheart Man where Is thy motherand tho praying one of this houseshe who has been your psssovor foryears Como find her

A cold sweat broke out on thedreamers brow AS ho stammered inshame and contrition I have senther away

Even so shall you bo sent awayThe words tell with crushing forceupon the guilty hoart apd With a lookof condemning reproach olio passedout and Mr Pringle was alone andawake tho cold sweatdrops upon hisbrow as they had been In his dreamand his limbs trembling with fright

Ho hurriedly arose whoa bo couldcommand his trembling limbs andbuttoning up his warm qorcoat hethought with a shiver that the mothers shawl was both old and thin hestarted for homo

Sarah was In tho hall to meet himSarah weve done an awful thing

said Martin his knees beginning totremble again Va hav thoughtenough about God and IbV futureand Im afraid His smiting band willbe upon us If this wrong Isnt maderightHow

can It bo made right Shesgone and whats done cant bo un ¬

I can go on tho limited and catch herbefore sho ROCS any fartherNandthen ho told her his dream

Sarahs head drooped It was fear-fully bard for her to give up her will

Well perhaps you had bettor shebald

They wore coming out of the roomwhere they had breakfasted the oldladys feeble stops supported by theyounger ones strong arm when MrPrlnglo met thorn and hot eyes rest¬

TURKEY OUR NOBLEST BIRD

Crossing with the Wild Species toImprove Market Product

Tho most notable American bird Inthe farm category Is tho turkey growIng as ho does to the great weight of30 and even 40 pounds and losingnothing In flavor and toothsomeneas

Likewise the most regal of our re-maining game girds Is his blood brothor the wild turkey from which he hasdescended

There Is perhaps no Instance wheredomestication has scored so little inImprovement as with tho turkey Infact In some respects the taming andbreeding have hurt Instead of helpedtbo species

No prize domestic gobbler Is overso beautifully marked or so resplend ¬

ent with feathers of black shaded withrich bronze and Illuminated with alustrous finish of burnished copper nsis the typical wild turkey while thovigor and vitality of the wild bird Issuch tbat to this day we strengthenthe most virile of our bronze turkeysby an Infusion of the wild blood

Rhoda Island stands for the bestin turkey production The last cen ¬

sus shows lest than 7000000 turkeysIn the United States and only about6000 produced annually In Rhoda Island yet according to a turkey ex ¬

pert It all tbo turkeys ot the coun-try

¬

were of such good quality asHhode Islands their total value wouldbe doubled

According to the department of agriculture the growing of turkeys hasgreatly Improved during the last fewyears as a result of a determined ef ¬

fort on tho part ot producers otstandard bred stock to demonstrate

that It Is much more profitable to usepure breeding stock than the smallerand less vigorous stock of timespast

The wild turkey Is also being usedto Instill further new vigorous bloodInto the bronze flocks Inbreeding Istho fatal defect among the practiceof many turkey growers

The tact tbat turkeys will from thetime that they are six weeks old until winter gain the greater part oftheir enUro living from bugs Insectsgrasshoppers and waste grain assurestheir existence during this period atlittle or no cost to tho grower whorothere Is a sufficient rango for thebirds

Goshawks Changing Plumage1 know no bird which passes

through so many changes of plumageanti color of eyes as the goshawk

A young one which I have mountedis about the size of a small lien andIs covered with white down JIlleyes aro pale blue I colored the eyesexactly from lifo When fuily growntho first plumage Is dark brown aboveand the eyes are polo yellow Noono would be likely to suspect thisbeing a goshawk who had only seenadult birds

Later It changes to the dark shadyblue of the adult and the eyes afterpassing through nil the Intermediatechanges in color Toni straw yelloworange yellow and pink finally assume the deep rich red of the adult
