The Cost of q Boy.

It will be good thing for all boys,
and girls, too, to get some idea-in real
figures-of what their parents do for
them. The Rev. P. B. Fisk gives a
lecture on the cost of boy. He COM
putes that at the age Of Is good boy
receiving the advantages Of city life will
cost, counting compound interest on
the amount invested, not less than
$1,000.
At 81 he will not cost any more unless
he goes to college, when he will cost
nearly twice as much. A bad boy costs
about $4,000 at 81, provided he does
not go to college. If he does go, he
costs Us much more.
Mr.. Fisk thinks that girls are nearly
as expensive as boys. The computation,
however, comprises only the pecuniary
cost Of raising a boy. The value of the
mothers tears and the fathers gray
hairs are beyond the reach of figures to
express: The money side is by far the
lesser Of the two.

UNCLE JEREMY'S DEVOTIONS

Of Jonesbury church, of which he was

Uncle Jeremy was my uncle's brother,
and each summer we all went from the
city out to his home ameng the hills to
spend the vacation months. By all I
mean my mother, my brother Joe and
myself-that was all of our family since
dear father died.
1rememoer what good times we had,
how uncle Jeremy was almost a child
with us-Joe and I: he even rolled with
US upon the hay and then kept us busy
picking the hay from his hair. I believe
now it was a ruse of his to get our young
