The Two Enemies.

There was once a little boy who had every
thing his heart could desire a large house,
q beautiful garden, pony and a dog, and
many playthings lie had an indulgent
mother and two nurses, and they all tried to
please him. If he asked for sweetmeats,
they were given him, if he wished for coffee
and cake for breakfast, instead of bread and
milk, he had them. IN the winter he did
not walk out when it was too cold, nor in the
summer when it was too hot and yet in
tine evening he would look as tired as If he
had broken stones all day.
When he was twelve years OH his mother
grow alarmed, for every day he seemed TO
have q new form of illness. She tool, him
to the cleverest doctors, but the medicines
were of no use, for he threw them into the
corner, as he had his lesson books and his
slate.
At length his mother took him to a very
clever physician in aueighboring town. The
physician quickly found out what allied the
little boy and he promised to send a pre-
scription that would cure him. The next
morning this letter came:
Dear Sir,-You have two poisonous serpent.
within YOU, that are consuming your vital powcn
daily and hourly cannot cure YOU unless YOU
come and live an hours distance from my house
y
my house, and then | will give you powder
which with lotion in the afternoon will kill the
serpents. But the powder will be of no value I'M
less you go 10 school two hours after it, and th,
lotion will require long walk before taking IT,
II You do not take my medicine you will not heai
the birds sing next spring.
The mother of the little boy, and the
nurses, We're very angry, but the physician
said that If they would not follow the pre-
scription, they might go to another doctor
| Then the mother took her sick little boy &c
some lodgings, an hours distance from the
physicians house.
The first morning the little fellow could
scarcely creep along. The mother and the
two nurses drove in a carriage behind him
TO pick him up il he Should grow tired.
The cruel physician r. said the nurses.
The next morning the boy was very tired
but the third and fourth day he could moi
help listening to the cuckoo, and thinking
the air very sweet and balmy and the fifth
day he even relished the bread and milk in
which the powder was mixed.
Thus for six weeks he walked, and went
to school every day his checks grew rosy
and his eyes bright, and he no longer pushed
his bread and milk away, and he slept
soundly all through the night. His mother
was going to take him home, hut the physi
clan said
The serpents may be killed, but they may
have left young ones. Unless You give him
bread and milk for breakfast, and send him
to school, and give him no sweetmeats, they
will grow within him and kill him."
The mother gave the physician large
fee, and took her little boy home But
when he was grown up and had become a
tall, strong man, he called on the physician
to thank him for his prescription, for be had

Feeding Grain 10 Cows.

Al the recent Dairy Convention in Illinois,
the President, Mr.. Fayille, said "The
question of feed for the dairy COW is so i'm
portant that trust you viii pardon me for
taking time to urge it upon your attention.
Breed is important, but feed much more So
Persons about engaging in dairying look
over the reports from this association, or
read the report of some dairy in the agricul-
tural papers. They see 80 many COWS kept,
and from them so much money made, and
they seem to forget all the rest They go
on and get the required plumber of COWS,
and when the end Of the year comes they
are obliged to divide the profits by two, for
the reason that they have not well consid.
cred the business in all its details Many
men q will not say dairymen) seem 10 think
anything is good enough for a cow the warm
side Of rail fence good enough shelter, and
a chance 10 feed at the straw-rack, with ali
occasional dressing of marsh hay and
chance 90 run in the standing corn-stalks,
good enough care and feed for the cow
They seem 10 feel that grain fed TO cows is
almost thrown away. The horses and hogs
must have all the grain and leave the cows
10 take care of themselves. These are, in
my opinion, very mistaken notions, for il
costs only little more 10 keep COW well
than in the manner have described. Indeed,
il costs only little more 10 keep COW
upon grain than upon hay. Example 1t
will take one acre Of good grass TO furnish
winter fodder for a COW. The same acre, il
planted to corn and properly cultivated, will
not only furnish winter fodder, but will fur
nish grain enough if fed with the stalks in
winter and the pasturage in summer, TO give
us good flow of milk during the entire
milking season, while the hay would have
done little more than sustain the animal
life. The difference Of cost, then, in the
two methods Of feeding, is the difference of
expense in raising an acre Of grass and an
acre of corn. We have the same investment
for land, and II is only the difference in la
Dor, and when We strike the balance between
the cost and profit, we shall find large
balance In favor Of the grain"

Scripture. II you feel, feel all the time, you

not talk about feeling would you The
question for you to consider is DO YOU

you? II you do, come along, and your feel

have heard Il said by people who were con.
yerted that they felt great Joy and peace.
Well will talk TO you about that after You
are converted The trouble is, You want to
feel that you have Christ, and that you have
accepted salvation first. Christ must come
first. Let Him come, and let the rejoicing
take care Of itself. You will not be talking
about feeling all the time when you are con
yerted. You will be occupied with Christ
and feelings will come in their own place.

Llfe's Wesiering Sun.

10 man Of middle life, existence Is un
longer dream. but n reality. lie has not
much more new To look forward to, for the
character Of his life is generally fixed by
that time Ills profession, his home, his
occupations. will be for the most part what
they are now. lie will make few new ac'
quaintanccs no now friends 1t is the
solemn thought connected with middle age,
that liie's last business is begun in earnest;
and it is then, midway between the cradle
and the grave, that q man begins 10 look
back and marvel with q kind OF remorsciul
feeling that he let the days Of youth 60 by
so half enjoyed, II is the pensiye autumn
feeling ii is the sensation Of half sadness
that we experience when the longest day of
the year is past. and every day that follows
is shorter, and the lights fainter, and the
ieehler shadows tell that nature IS fastening
with gigantic footsteps TO her winter grave.
SO does man look back upon his youth.
When the first grey hairs become visible
when the unwelcome truth fastens itself
upon the mind that man is no longer going
up the hill but down, and the sun is already
westerng, he looks back on things behind.
Now this is a natural feeling but is 1t the
high Christian tone oi feeling We may
assuredly answer, No We who have an in
heritance incouuptible and mdefled, and
that fadeth not away, what have we To- do
with things past
When we were children, we thought as
children. But now there lies before us man
hood with its earnest work and then old
age, and then the grave, and then home.
And so manhood in the Christian life is o
better thing than boyhood, because 10 is a
ripper thing; and oldage ought TO be a brighter
and calmer and more serene thing than
manhood. There is a second youth for man,
better and holier than his first. il he will
look on aud not back. There is a peculiar
simplicity of heart and a touching singleness
of purpose in Christian old age, which ha,
ripened gradually and not ttiully II j,
then that to the wisdom Of the serpent i.
added the harmlessness OF the dove 10 is
I then that to the iirmuess Of manhood i,
joined almost the gentleness OF womanhood
/ it is then that the somewhat austere and soui
character Of growing strength, moral and in
tellcctual, mellows into rich ripcness Of an
old age made sweet and tolerant by expe.
rience; it Is then that man returns to first
| principles. There comes % love more pure
and deep than the boy could ever feel there
comes a conviction, with strength beyond
that which the boy could never know, that
the earliest lesson OF life is infinite Christ
I is all.
/ Is spite of the hard times, the va.f, OF
sin ARE still mp TO the old standard.
/ I.Ef man restore order within himself
! and chaos without ceases.
