IT would be lamentable if Nation which
had just proved its readiness to fight and suf>

of common honesty; fail to keep its word in a

that, of gaining or saving certain dollars in a

Careless Farmers.

1t is almost impossible for a careless
farmer to be prosperous. How often
do we hear Of some unexpected failure
in the commercial world. We look for
the cause of this disaster, and find that
the merchant was engaged in umprofita-
BILE trade, or perhaps some faithless
clerk has robbed his master. The fail.
ure is due 10 any one Of the dozen
canses which proper oversight might
have corrected. When the merchant
has realized the ambitious dream. of
his earlier mercantile career, he neg
lects those habits of business which in.
sured his success, and failure is the re-
suit. And il is the same in any BUSH
ness. But with an unsuccessful farmer,
lack of success is still more directly
trsceable to carelessness of the man
himself. Carelessness in farming is
manifested in many different WAYS,
each seemingly unimportant.
The careless farmer is careless of his
own personal appearance, Indifferent
to the wants of his family, and negli-
gent Of his stock. Personality, he is de-
ficient in spirit and enterprise. As 10
his family, 1t satisfies him if his wife
does all his hard drudgery, and asks a
few fayOrs. His children must not care
for education, for society, to leave the
farm, or for anything except to wait
upon his pleasure. His crops are plant
ed, cultivated and harvested in slipshod
sort of manner, thar leaves only q small
margin for profit. His stock is inferior,
and he loses few from disease every
spring. His tools Qf he has improved
tools) soon decay from exposure to the
elements and negiigentures. He has less
stock. lighter ciops, aud more debts
than his more careful neighb or. Such

contracting debts and liabilities until

A Parrots Practical Joke.

In his new volume on the voyage
of the Challenger, Sir G. Wyvllle
Thompson relates an incident which
may be cited in proof that animals
are not destitute of the sense of hu-
NOR. The vessel stopped at the
port of Bahaia, Brazil, and some of
the voyagers went to Santo Amaro,
a town about twenty miles distant.
There a new line of tramway had
recently been laid, with a sharp in
cline to steamboat wharf. DIR.
Thompson's party arrived in season
to take the trial trip on the new
tramway. AS the truck that carried
the party went down the incline, the
agonized cries of a child, followed
- y %s,yo lA'sard aprmtentRy
from beneath the wheels. INSTANTLY
the brakes were applied, and the
truck stopped with a jerk. The
scientific party jumped out and
looked around and under the truck
in vain. A lot of swarthy native
children stood near the rails, looking
on vaguely and curiously, but not
as If anything had happened to any
OF their number. When the passen-
gers, mystifed, returned to their
seats, parrot, hanging in cage on
the truck, burst into a loud, hooking
laugh, and was at once recognized as
the performer in the previous scream.
ing and moaning. Although DR..
thompson is not familiar with the
Balkan Patois, he is convinced that
the observations thereupon addressed
ny the truck drivers to the parrot
included some vigorous language.

bale of wood, and signing blank
check, put it into the squire's hand.
The tewest words in such cases are
best. With the tact of a true gen.
1leman he turned the conversation to
Josiah's son, and finally hesitating a
little. said:
"There was some bit of youthful
love making between Richard and
my Agnes thou didst not know it
belize, Josiah"
Yes, that for what he were sent
away mainly; but he's as fond as w.
err about her. Thou mustn't strive
wi him, squire-love is beyond our
ordering"
Il had no thought OF it now.
Richard has proved his metal. You
may tell him If Agnes says Yes still,
I'll never be the one to say Mo-"
Thank you, Squire, it's great
honor; and if SO be you'd niver name
the money to the young un's, I'd take
it kind. That's between us, Squire !;
can't draw sword tor you as Ru-
fns Broadbent did for the first Squire
of Saurham, but can draw a check
for you, and I'm proud and glad to
do it,"
AS Richard had secured Agnes
!" Yes" the future arrangements were
easily settled, and within year love-
ly Agnes Saurham became Richard
Boadbent's wife, and the squire has
had good cause to be proud OF the
alliance. Old Josiah also, lived to
see his son not only one of Her Maj
esty's counsel, but also Member OF
Parliament for his native city, and a
Baron of the Court of Exchequer.
