The Hired Man.

The skilled workman, whose moral
character is faultlcss, forms one of the
noblcst types ofour American civilization
Such workmcn can be found, not only in
tho machine shops but on tho farm
Such men have not dreamed themselves
into position, but have formed for them
selves characters that are of value and
worth, and their services are always in
demand The model hired man is one
who is an early riser; one who looks af
ter the most trivial matters about tho
farm. Ifhc sees anything that ought to
be done he does it as soon as an oppor,
tunity occurs. Let it only re fence
rail, a plank tEat is wanting, it is re.
placed in its proper position. y great
many little things are being constantly
70 handed of the hired man; but prompt
attention to them is 4 matter of very
great Importance to his employers,
The working man on the farm should
cndcavrr to take MS much interest in
seeing that everything is done at thc
right time, aud III the best possible way
az the employer himself In this way

Oiling Harness.

The Gllowing recipe is sent US by 4.
Tait, of Howard county, Kansas. He
thinks it is the best he has ever used,
and it is Sc simple that any one may
easily try the experiment:
Take about half gallen of oil, aud
put in shallow pan or basip, aud dip
the harness in, one piece or moro at
time; then strip the oil of of the strap
with your tinSors, letting it run back
into the basin; hang up to dry repeat
the dipping Of the harness two or three
times uutil it will take no more oil. A
little lamp black added helps the looks
very much. Aftsr the oiliug take rag
and rub off the haruess, and you viii find
the hardest lelther and the stiffest tuy
have become very pliable and will re-
main so from one to three years. You
may leave them out ip the rain . dozen
times; and you cannot see but thoy are
us pliable as before the water touched
them. And not only that, but the rats
and mice will never touch them. If
they are dirty, it is not Uecessary to clean
before oiling. hh

B0asting,

Ann Strong was a sad little boaster.
Though she ment to speak the truth,
she was so vain and thoughtless that nc
one would believe her.
She always wanted long lesson,
She would say, 81 can learn it all, it is +,
it is not too har1 for me- though when,
her class was called out to be examined,
she was often sent back to hor seat to.

If anything was to be done at homo
or at school, Ann would always say, II
know how, please let me do it,"
even if it was thing she could NJ do al
all.
AIMS teacher wished some one TO
point to the name of the cities on largo
map, so that all the girls in the class
might knew where to find them.
Oh, let me do it," said Aun, Il kaoW
how as we'll as can be- 7tf -
Yes, you may do it," said Miss Ea-s

a bright eyed little girl, raising her 4
right hand, 'Oh, please tell US all about
the pigeon,
'The story replied Miss Eaton, is
that when the pigeon first came integ
the world, all the other birds came and
offered to shoTn her how to buihA
nest"
The cat bird showed her its nest, all
made Of sticks and bark; and the spar,
row showed her theirs, which we're woven
with moss aud hair. Bus the pigeon,
walking about in very vain why,
and turning her head from side to side,
said: i know how; I know how to
build my nest as we'll as toe. best Of
you?
Then tho black bird showed his neat,

dove said hers was easier to build thar
all, for it was quite aat and nade only

s,n turned her pretty head as before and
said; Il know how ss5 $500
at last all the birds left her. Then
the pigeon found that she did not kaoU
how at all: and she went withoutsa
nest uuiil man took pity on hcr, and
built pigeon house and put some hay
into it. f1@
Now, children, though the story Of
the pigeon is emily fable, aud net tfae,
yet you may loarn a very useful lss-
son.
Little hops and girls who are vain
boastors, are laughed at by others, and
deceive themselves Like the silly pig.

often find to their sorrow, when lis too
late, that they do not. . go
Remember, my dear children, that
whom you once learn to do anything wall
you will not need to boast of it.

night, his wife went to The store and found him
sitting in cl,air with Ills skull fractured aud.
the brain exposed. His pockot-book was in the.

although ho was known to haye considerable
sum Of money the dav before. Although 30 tor.
