THE PRICE OF TRUTH


Great truths are dearly bought. The common truth,
Such as men give and take from day to day,
Comes in the common walks of daily life,
Blown by the careless wind across our way.
Bought In the market at the current price,
Bred of the smile, the jest, perchanee the bowl;
1t tells no tales Of daring or of WORTH
Nor perceives cen the surface Of the soul.
Great truths greatly won-not formed by chanc c
Nor waited on the breath of a summer dream,
But grasped i'll the great struggles of the soul,
Hard buffcting with adverse wind and stream.
Not in the general mart, mid corn and wine
Not in the merchandise of gold and gems;
Not in the worlds gay hall of midnight milth;
Nor mid the blaze of regal diadcmS,
But in the day of conflict, fear and grief,
When the strong han of God put forth in Nigh
Plows up the sub-oil Of the stasnant heart,
And brings the pIlsoned truth seeds to the light
Wrung from the troubled spirit in hard hours
OF weakness solitude, perchance of pain:
Truth spring like harvest from the wclpowed field
And the soul feels 1t has not went in vain.

i brought to Il boiling heat. the wheel is
placed on Il stic>. so IS 70 hang in the oil,
each fclloe an hour The timber should
be dry. rs green timber will not take the

THE BEST WAY OF PRUNING STANDARD

HE DESI WAY OF RUNING oIANDAhD
RosEs.-A very successful rose culturist
says that in pruning standard roses every
shoot of last years wood should be short
ened to three or four buds. If not pruned
in this secure manner the head will be-
come struggling. the shoots weakly, and
the flowers small. Only as many shorten
ed shoots should be left for blooming. us
well keep the head properly supplied
without crowding; hearing in mind that
each of the three or four buds left. will
produce 4 shoot. Attention must also be
paid to have the head properly balanced.
Nhe the head of Il standard has been
improperly treated, and. in consequence,
the shoots of several years, now old wood
are too extended, then cut the shoots of
old wood back to within Il few inches of
their origin, and SO form new head. The
portion of old wood retains, will push
shoots, which generally bloom the follow
ne season; and if they should not. they
will not fail to do so every subsequent one
if properly treated. Severe but judicious
pruning, i essential to secure success in
blooming the rose An annual dressing of
manure on the surface of the bed should
he given to be washed in by the rains and
thaws of winter and spring.
HINTS To FAKMELs.-A good pullct,
costing sevcntv-livc cents, with proper
care ami feeding, and kept in comfortable
quarters. will lay II dozen eggs in a year,
worth 81 cents "a doz-n-S3 60: cost of

and they will give You better returns for

A reporter of the Paris Figaro relates
this story: "At the recent fire in the
Poirier establishment, l saw Vicar of St.
Denis, man of very high rank, rushing
about in the most dangerous part of the
fire in order to save some of the victims.
MAY ask your name = said to this hero.
SIS it for a newspaper 2 yes, for the Fig
aro.' Then put only "a priest am only
doing my duty This heroic man saved
several lives by carrying wounded men out
of the fire on his shoulders and was more
over cruelty burned about the hands, feet
and face. We know his name, but at his
express desire, will not disclose it. He is
only q priest, but worthy of his Master"
The gifted editor Of the Paris Figaro is
not above copying good idea when one is
presented to him, and he has now taken a
leaf from the book of the New York Herald
He announced the other day that the Fig.
arc would be published as usual on Sunday,
but out of respect for the day he would
exclude from it's columns the ordinary per.
siRaJe which on the other days enlivens it's
pages, and devote them to grave subjects.
So, on that dav, the Figaro contained ad-
mirable biographical and descriptive sket-
ches of the archbishops and bishops of
France, interspersed with sparkling anec-
dotes of their wit and goodness, of which
the following is a sample-Monsignor Don
net, Archbishop of Bordeaux, dining one
day with q cure, had his attention called to
the fact that the eau -de-vie served with
the coffee was twenty years old. "In that
case" said the venerable Archbishop, "let
