Johnny has gone to Kansas. His ia

family moved last week. The dear
bye before he left. He had been in
actly the "good boyn of the school, he
was an affectiOnate fellow, and could
feel the force of truth. The habit of
daily prayers as taught him in early
childhood, he has never lost. You
know that religious considerations have
often deeply affected him. What will
be the effect of this complete change of
associations What will become of
your influence over him? When you
seemed to give him your friendship,
was it ''for Keeps" or an affair of con-
venienceq Don't lose the hold you
have on him! You have certain ad-
vantage for helping him into downright
Christian character, such as no one else
has. That is, you have been, in the
school, more than any one else, his re-
ligious instructor. He confides in you.
You are his friend. Write to him. He
will keep your letter. 1t will last, and
he sort of consciousness with him,
daily. And when you write to him,
don't get on stills. Be natural, genial,
direct. 1t will win no favor to mince
matters. There is nothing about his
new life, at his new home, which would
not be of interest to you and yet, of
course, your greatest interest reaches
out toward his choosing the good part,
and doing it now. His father has a
new farm to "breakn and cultivate into

Only his farm he carries about within
him. In short, you do want him to be
a Christian boy. Well, you may as well
tell him so straight and square. You
would be glad to have him answer YOU

will not If he should not, it will moi

week, and men say, ''What splendid
progress Some energy there ~ But
the other has only bog to build on.
He drives down piles thirty or forty
feet long he pumps off the water and
turns up the black mire in his opera
tons. He makes an Unlocking cavity
and blocks the street, and, for weeks
together, does nothing more. And
some thoughtless passer-by looks on a
moment, and says, "What a miserable
drag they are making of this When
will they wake up and do something ?"
Now there is the same difference often
between two characters as between
these houses. One man has good ma
ture to start with. He has very little
in himself to overcome. He can show
virtues at once that are charming. The
The other does more hard work in the
same time than he, but is forced to do
it under the surface. He has some poor
ground to build On-so many bad ele-
ments in him-that he will be, in Gods
sight, very angel for faithful perse-
verance compared with the other, be-
fore, in mems sight, he will be more
than respectable.
Now men who excel a Christian at
some one point in his character con-
clude that, if he is safe for heaven,
they are doubly so. If he is honest, in
the main, toward God,-if the current
of his life, though there may be eddies
here and there, flows toward Christi
then let them compare the current of
their lives with his, and not one of their
virtues with one of his faults. You
have wronged no one, cruelty, as did
David; but are you sure you are as
true, on the whole toward God ? You
have never denied Christ's name with
blasphemy but ire you as Christ-like
as Peter? A mere Unborn, moral in
stinct may render one, for time, more
attractive than some Christian. But
the Christian is as sure to Outlive it and
surpass it as his soul is to exist forever.

all the days of your life. Never revenge
an injury.
He that revengeth knows no rest
The meek possess a peaceful breast
IF you have an enemy act kindly to
him and make him your friend. You
may not win him over at once, but try
again. Let one kindness follow another
till you have compassed your end. By
little and by little great things are COM
pleted.
Water falling day by day,
Wears the hardest rock away
And so repeated kindnesses will soft
en- heart of stone. Whatever you do,
do it willingly. A boy that is whipped
at school never learns his lessons well.
A man that is compelled to work cares
not how badly it is performed. He who
pulls off his coat cheerfully, strips up
his sleeves in earnest and sings while
he works is the man for me.
A cheerful spirit gets on quick;
A grumbler in the mud will stick.
Evil thoughts are our worst enemies.
Keep your heads and hearts full of good
thoughts, that bad thoughts may not
find room.
Be on your guard and strive and pray
To drive all evil thoughts away.

Sugar Beet Raising in California.

Many farmers in the Eastern states
may be surprised that SO many acres of
beets are raised by so few farmers in
number out here in California. Let me
remind my Eastern friends that beet
raising is nothing new in AlvaradO. Su-
gar beets have been raised here for a
number of years. Some farmers have
paid the entire original cost with inter
est of their farms with the money made
by the raising of beets at $3.50 per ton.
Since then the prices of everything have
declined from one-quarter to One-half,
while all the farmers but one, consider
ed 81, delivered at the factory, good
price; this one exception tried to hold
out for the old price, but when he found
he was neither needed nor wanted, he
very quietly signed contract for TWEEN
ty acres, and to judge by the quantity
of seed he has taken, he intends putting
in over thirty acres.
Land here is worth from 800 to $3.50
per acre. Good land readily rents for
$40 per acre. There are no pastures
here, and growing grass for hay is a
thing unknown. Hay is made here
from alfalfa, which yields well, but as
it is perfect hOtbed for gophers, which
prey on other crops, it is not much in
favor. Again, since the sugar factory
was first started nearly every farmer
has grown of sugar beets for his cattle
supply large enough to last till the new
crop of sugar beets comes in. have
no doubt 1 could get at this moment
1000 tons of sugar beets if offered SIS
per ton for them. Our Eastern farmers
NAV vet learn a lesson from their Cali
fornia brethren, and our Eastern mon
eyed men may find out that the money
kings of the Pacific slope are far from
wrong when they believe, as they do,
that in the beet sugar business is to be
found bonanza which will not only
pan out fully as well as the richest
mine, but also great deal surer.-Cor

Good Counsel.

Never be cast down by trihes. If a
spider breaks his web twenty times,
twenty times will he mend it. Make
up your mind to do thing and you
will do it. Fear not if trouble comes
upon you. Keep up your spirits, though
the day be dark one.
Troubles never last forever
The darkest day will pass away.
If the sun is going down, look up to
the stars; if the earth is dark, keep
your eyes on heaven. With Gods
presence and Gods promise a man OF
child may be cheerful.
Never despair when a fog's in the air.
A sunshiny morning will come without warning.
Mind what you run after. Never be
content with a bubble that will burst
or firewood that will end in smoke
and darkness but that which you car
keep, and which is worth keeping.
Something sterling that will stay
When gold and silver fly away.
Fight hard against hasty temper
Anger will come, but resist it strongly
A spark may set a house on fire. A Fl
! OF passion may give you cause to mourn

Whom the Lord Loveth He chasteneth

Affections are, to believer, an earn
est of Gods special blessing. They are
an evidence of Gods special love. One
who has never been afflicted may well
tremble, and ask if he or she is forgot
ten or neglected of God. One who is
under sore atf1ictiOn may say confident
ly, "This means good to me. My
Father is showing me his peculiar favor.
l shall yet have great rejoicing over
this" There are no such promises to
those who are free from sorrow and
trial as are full and abundant to the af-
flicted. A good country physician in
New England went to neighber's
house to tell wife and mother of the
sudden death of her absent husband.
She was more than ordinarily frail and
dependent. She had a large family.
Her husband had acquired no property.
The fresh blow was indeed terrible to
her. When the first wild burst of sor-
row was over, she looked up through
her tears to her sympathizing friend,
and said in agony, "But, Doctor, achat
shall do7" MY dear woman, / don't
know" said the kind hearted physician.
''All l can say is, only wish l had as
many promises of God to take right
home to myself as you have just now.
The Bible is full of promises to those
who are in your case" And that strick-
Ell woman lived to realize the truth and
preciousness of the richest of those
promises.-H. c.. TiWmbul, in S. s.
Times.
