GROWING OLD.

What is the use OF growing old before
your time? Some people seem to think
age requires great and awful solemnity.
The wise man and woman, as they have
grown older, should have laid by such a
store of happiness as to have an inexhaust-
ible reservoir for constant use. Nothing is
more beautiful than the old grandfather
and grandmother, gray haired and aged,
and yet SO keenly alive to ife's duties as
to attract and win the admiration and rev.
they are soon to leave their inheritance
In every home sorrow comes soon, r
or later, and every heart has it's own bitter
memories. But the sooner we come from
the shadows, and look abroad at the beauti.
full that abounds, the better for us and
those around US. The young should re-
member they will grow old, and the old
should oftener remember that they were
young, and thus, in full sympathy, the
budding beauty of youth and its
gay visions will chime in with
the trembling notes of age in perfect
harmony The world of men and women
is too busy money-making and fashion
serving to pay much attention TO the culti-
walton of the chief object of life. Many a
grandfather and grandmother who have given
all life's energies in the direction of money
getting, awake in their old age to the Bit
ter fact that they are counted out, and are
simply supernumeraries in the estimation
of those who desire to inherit the for
tunes they control. 1t is thus they sit,
silent and morose in old age, reaping
as they have sown. The man who is
so engrossed with his profession and
counting-room in his vigorous manhood
that he finds no time to court anew the
hearts of his wife and children will find at
life's close that he makes small part of
the family group. As he looks at her who
started with him fifty or sixty years ago so
full of hope in life's active duties, he seems
to con the words of the poet
Playing with old regrets. we wait,
Half happy, half acc sing fate;
broken hope is like ghost
We both seek something We have lost :
You and I.
Old Xenophon long ago wrote so
great happiness do esteem it to be
loved that / really fancy every blessing,
both from gods and men, ready to descend
spontaneously upon him who is loved. :"
The thought is that home love, and its
constant culture, is the bud that blooms
all along the years of later life, freighting
the air with its fragrance. Happy that
man and that woman who finds time to
SOW such seed in the hearts of all who come
within their influence. In old age, trem-
bling upon canes, and unsteady in limbs,
and dim in vision, they yet see and hear,
and feel and live anew in the love OF the
young lives with which their hearts are in
unison.

Tenacity of Vegetable Life.

The duration and tenacity of public
life, as seen in the length of time during
which the seeds of certain plants will re.
tain their vitality, are truly wonderful.
We may cite the following example
Lord Lindsay states that, in the
course of his wanderings amid the pyra.
mids of Egypt, he stumbled on mum.
my, proved by its hieroglyphics to be
1900 year old. In examining this
mummy after it was unwrapped he
found in one of it's closed hands a tuberous
or Dubious root. He was interested in
the question how long vegetable life
could last, and he therefore took that
tuberous root from the mummy's hand
and planted it in sunny soil, allowed
the rains and dews of heaven to descend
upon it, and in the course of few
weeks, to his establishment and joy. the
root burst forth and bloomed into 6
beauteous dahlia.
The roots of many plants retain then
vitality under intense temperatures
Certain plants, also, may, by theil
roots, absorb some poisons which would
be destructive to others. The seeds OF
which birds have fed will retain then
power of termination during long pc
riod. Birds that feed on the seed Of the
castor Oil plant have been k lown 10
bear them in their bodies from one
country to another, where they have
grown and multiplied.

The Way They Churn in Texas.

thought that had seen good many
kinds of chJlrns before I came down here
(says New England Yankee, writing
from Texas -crank churns, dasher
churns, and chemical churns." But
| will now describe mode of churning
butter that will, I think, make New En-
gland folks open their eyes. Common
ly, they do not makemuch butter in this
county, and the settlers here come to
get along without it; but, by the time [
had been at the poesta two or three days,
began to want some butter on my
bread.
M = had herd Of twenty-five or
thirty cattle, which he kept for beef,
and among them were number of mich
cows Ed was hidden to set the milk
for twenty-four hours, and the next
morning M - told Lizado, OR "Liz,"
as we called him, to churn They had
done such thing as to churn butter be-
fore, it appears. Liz went out and
brought bag Of raw hide, about as large
as common meal bag. How clean it
was inside, [ am sure / do not know, but
he turned the cream into it, and poured
in new milk enough to fill it two-thirds
full, and then he tied it up with strong
strip Of hide.
NJ stood with broad grin on his
face. I was already too much .astonished
to make any remarks. Liz now carried
the bag out Of doors, and then got his
horse. Taking his lassoo off the saddle,
he made one end of it fast to the cream
bag, the other end, as usual, being at
tached to ring in the saddle. This
done, he jumped on the horse and tucked
spurs to him. Away he went, and at
the first jerk that bag went ten feet into
the air, and fell with squach, close up
to the horses heels At the next jerk it
went higher STILL He soon went out of
sight, with the bag dancing after him.
Sometimes it hit down alongside the
horse, and sometimes it struck slap on
the animals rump M was con-
yrllsed with laughter-at me, I suppose;
for / must confess that this upset all
my previous ideas of butter-making. In
the course of twenty or thirty minutes
Liz came back, the horse looking pretty
hot, and the bag very dusty.
81 Els mantica" Cutters come), said
he. Ed united the churn, and, sure
enough, there was good homely chunk
Of butter in it; and it proved to be very
decent butter, too. I asked if that was
the way they always churned. They
said it was, and Ed declared it was 6 a
dale asier than trlrnin' crank" So /
respectfully submit the "method to all
our good people up North. Everything
needed for it is sole-leather bag, a
clothes-line and horse.

A Senseless Phrase.

When any man In this country begins
to talk about +" the pressure of popula-
ton on the means of subsistence, one
of two things should be done with him.
He should either be transported to
China, where, with population of
48O, 600, 900, and very little Of the mod
ern machinery Of production, they begin
to know something Of this pressure, and
be permitted and encouraged to air his
ideas and practice his theories there, or
he should be set, down in the heart of,
say. the Territory of Montana, and COM
PEELED to walk back to the States. In
the latter case he might get some idea
of the extent Of the soil which in our
country yet awaits the settler and the
blow, and realize that the best thing for
the anxious Malthusian to do at present
is to devise ways and means for settling
and cultivating our immense Western
Territories. It is really overwhelming
to attempt to realize the extent and re-
sources of our yet-unoccup1ed national
domain Take up a map which shows
the comparative size of the States and
Territories, observe that New York and
all the New England States could be set
down in Dakota, and yet enough space
would be left to make good-sized State
Indiana and Illinois need not be very
close neighbors if both States were set
set down in Montana. Observe the ratio
of population between the Eastern and
Western States. Every man, woman
and child in the United States could be
placed in Texas, and then that State
would not be as thickly peopled as Mas
sachusetts is to-day. The soil, climate
and natural resources of these magnif-
cent Western Territories are far more
favorable to settlement and production
than in the far Eastern States And
yet there are some wiseacres to be found
who talk about 'the pressure of popu-
lation upon the means OF subsistence -
To come nearer home, only one-sixth
of the soil of the State of Illinois has
ever been broken by the pIow. In Mis-
souri, a great empire lies fallow in the
southwestern portion of the State. The
Southwestern States, bordering on the
Ohio river, have vast tracts of thousands
of acres which have never been cultivated.
The man who would be the patriot now
is the man who shall make way for the
unemployed laborers everywhere to take
possession of these vast expanses of rich
soil, plant and cultivate them, build
roads through them, dig their treasures
of coal iron, and the precious minerals,
build towns and villages, and plant COM
Portable homes all over their bosoms.
We don't need to plan for the "press-
ure of population on the means subsist-
ence " In this country any more than we
need to decide on the cut Of our ascen-
sion robes. We do need to realize that
nothing but kind of national stupidity
prevents our enjoying the general pros
perity to which our great national her.
itage entities us. There is room for all,
there is comfort for all. Where is to be
found the precious directive and organ
izing power that shall bring the heirs
and the heritage together ?-Mrs. II. e.

The Monroe doctrine, as promulgated
in President Monroe's message of Dec.
2, 1923, was that it was the policy Of the
United States neither to entangle our
selves in the broils of Europe nor suffer
the Old World to interfere with the
affairs of the New. In other words,
that Americans should govern America
On the same occasion he declared that
any attempt on the part of European
powers to "extend their system to any
portion Of this hemisphere would be
regarded by the United States as Changer
GUS to our peace and safety" and would
be opposed
The old saying, "Nine taylors make
a man, Z" originated from the following
circumstance A number of years since,
in London, little boy was accustomed
to sell apples, cakes, etc., among the
various shops. At one place he visited
were nine journeyman tailors, who, on
account of the unusual brightness of the
boy, determined to educate him. Each
one contributed portion toward the
necessary expenses, and the boy eventu-
ally became noted individual. In this
sense nine tailors were said to have made
a man.
The first models were figures of liv-
ing persons, and Dibutades, the Cor
inthian, is the reputed inventor of those
in clay. His daughter, known by the
appellation Of the Corinthian Maid, be-
ing about to be separated from her
lover, who was going on distant Jour
ney, traced his profile by the shadow on
the wall. Her father filled up the out
inc with clay, which he afterward
baked, and produced figure Of the OBJ
iect of her affection, giving rise to an
art till then unknown. This was about
