SAID father to his little daughter:
"When you laid aside that interesting
book and attended to what your moth
er wished done, you were sowing seeds
of kindness and love. When YOU broke
the dish that your mother valued, and
came instantly and told her, you were
sowing seeds of truth. When you took
the cup of cold water to tho poor wom-
an at the gate, you were sowing seeds
of mercy. These are all beautiful
flowers. Bessie. But when you were
impatient with the baby, you sowed the
seeds of i'll temper. When you waited
some time after your mother called
you, you sowed disobedience and sell
fishness. These are all noxious weeds.

than q mile or two away. After walk
ing for an hour without seeming to
have made any progress toward the
desired goal, one Of them became dis
couraged and concluded to return for
his breakfast; afterward he took q car
riage and went in search of his friend,
whom he found on the bank of q small
ditch, engaged in removing his boots.
His friend inquired what he Intended
to do. He replied, to wade the ditch.
His friend said there was no necessity
for that, as it was less than three feet
across, and he could easily jump it.
"You can't tell anything about It In
this country" responded the other; cit
may be three hundred feet across for
aught I know" His morning walk
proved to extend about fifteen miles
before he reached the foothills.
