She feared lest harsh reproof should
fall on her boy. But the father only
said:
"Ask one yourself, Charlie, if you
want to-"
The little fellow did not stop or STAN
mer. He said quite simply, but rever-
emily,
''Dear Lord Jesus, please let all things
work together for good to us, and make
us all to love thee. Amen"
From that hour great change came
over the Thornes. Father and mother
had been wandering from the fold OF
God. The one had been full of bust
ness and the other full of care, and they
had lost the habit of going to the
Throne of divine grace. But Charles
words brought them to better mind.
The business had to be given up, and
Mr.. ThOrne became poor clerk. They
moved out of the big, beautiful house,
into little narrow one, in an obscure
street. The girls could not have new
dresses, and the boys had to leave the
academy. But, somehow, they did not
mind it. God took away these outside
things, but he gave them something SC
very much better that they were happy
and peaceful once more The father
came home at night with a smile. The
mother was gay and merry. The sister
was sweeter than ever. The love oil
the Lord was in the house, and it made
every meal feast. Night and morning
they met together to pray and praise
and, though trials and troubles were
sent, they all felt that He who ordered
them was wise, and would bring them
through, and receive them to himself
at last. Charities puzzle was made
clear as daylight, for he saw that wher
things were seeming most wrong, they
were really all right and working to
gether for good, since they had learned
the dear lesson of love and trust.

TSDrRDEA1N1NG-The underdrain
inc of wet lands is practiced eXten
sively in all agricultural con tries
and some farmers claim tat 1t pays
to underdran any field that has fall
enough to carry off the water IN the
drains. They claim that IN conSe'
quence the ground that is thNs
drained becomes quickly free from al
excess Of moisture, that crops grow
better, and produce better than they
would if the lands were not drained,
This is true, but it is debatabiv
question whether the crops are
enough better to warrant the expense
of the drains. Our opinion Is dat
farmers Of ordinary pocunlary meals
should never uuderlrain any lands
but those that are decidedly too wet,
in seasons Of much rain, to produce
good crops. TO dig out the bitches
bv hand is slow and expensive work
and ditchint machines are costly

COLTS IN WINTER.

Colts require considerable care in
winter, if it is expected that they will
grow 10 to be perfect and valuable
horses, rs it is not possible to have a
fine, weIl-developed animal at three
or four years Ole, if the colt in his
Younger years is badly care for, In
the winter season especially. 10 keep
colts right, they must be so provide"
for that they will grow right straight
along. If they get set back IN the
winter, it is fatal to their proper de-
velopment, and if a colt Is obhSed to
lean against the fence in the spr'ng'
with his lousy coat turned toward his
head, it is an affidavit Of bad keeping
that will out.swear any protestatlons
OF "p|enty to eat and well cared for
that any mistaken farmer can urge
in paliation of his neglect. In WIN

is we'll enough to handle the colts IN
day time, aud keep the hair straight

will during the nights, AMI not be
hitched up in narrow stall. For
feed, the colts should have what hay
they will eat up clean, and the hay
should be of good quality-none OF
your rain-roakel and now burnt
stuff, not fit for bedding. They should
also be fed on a little grain, meal
bran, or carrots daily, with a little
salt once in week.

Russian ProNerb..

The following translations of current
Russian proverbs are published in
French by Paris paper. Some of them
very strongly resemble our own; Others
show the peculiarities of the Russian
people, and all will, at the present june
ture, be read with interest:
When sovereignty is divided it is very
soon destroyed.
Make presents to your judges, you
will gain all you ask.
To God glory: TO the priest the candle.
When the patriarch is starved he
steals like any other man.
The trainer remains sound while the
horse dies.
His right arm is often mans worst
enemy.
Misfortune engenders misfortune.
and you escape the wolf only to be-
devoured by the bear.
The robber does not always steal. but
it is as well to be on the lookout for him
The rich man in battle shields his
face, but the poor man takes care of his
clothes.
The old man repents of that which
the young man boasts.
If you give a shirt TO a bcggar, he
Will complain that the linen is too
coarse.
Measure ten times and cut once.
The smallest needles are the sharpest
prickers.
Do not eat cherries with your supe-
riors. They will blind you with stones.
The anger of the car is death 10 the

Our girls are the boldest of all, part
being the boldness of innocence and
part the boldness of impudicity; but
from whatever it comes, it does not sit
well on young woman. She is often
under the impression that her fast ways,
her slang, and her freedom with the
man is what he admires; and this is
her mistake, for even the rake feels the
charm of modest woman. and when
he selects his life partner she is his
choice; in a word, the man passes his
time with the fast person for his amuse-
ment, but when il comes TO the serious
business of life, such As marriage, c'est
me Gutre pdire de mdRches.
The Be what you seem or seem what
you be, of the foreigner, addressed to
the forward Miss by way of explanation
for natural mistake which he made in
regard to her moral status, ought TO be
taken as lesson by all young women
like her.
For the mother TO remain in an upper
room yawning and talking with other
chaperons, while her daughter, with a
ldisSeT-dller manner of three or four
o'clock in the morning, is whirling
around in the Boston with a Young
man heated with with wine, can hardly
be called serious chaperoning, for if
there is any time at which the mother
should be with her daughter, it is at
that time-it is then that she assuredly
needs her. Ordinarily the mother who
chaperones, as she calls it, separates
from her charge at the ballroom, and
does not see her again until the twain
depart from the house.
In France there are two rows Of chairs
around the sides of the dancing room,
the daughters sitting on the front and
their respective mothers behind them
on the back row. The daughter goes
forth to the saltation with the maternal
approval, and at its conclusion she is
Immediately conducted back to her
place before the mother. 1t would
perhaps be too much to expect Ameri-
can mothers and daughters to comply
with such rigid rule in their dancing
entertainments, bur they might at least
remain in the same room, where the
young would be under the eye of the
