Just the Difference.

Some men move through life as a
band of music moves down the street,
flinging out pleasure on every side
through the air to every one, far and
near, that can listen. Some men fill
the air with'thcir presence and sweet
ness, as orchards in October days fill
the air with perfume of ripe fruit
Some women cling to their own houses,
like the honeysucklc over the door,
vet. like'it, sweeten all the region with
the subtitle fragrance of their goodness.
There are trees of righteousness which
are ever dropping precious fruit around
them. There are lives that shine like
stalheams, or charm the heart like
songs sung upon holy day.
How great Il bounty and blessing it
is to hold the gifts of the soul so that
they shall he music to some and fra
GRANGE to others, and life to all 1t
would he no unworthy thing to live
for, To make the power which we have
within us the breath of other mems
joy to scatter sunshine where only
clouds and shadows reign to fill the
atmosphere where carth's weary toilcrS
must stand with brightness which
they cannot create for themselves and
which they long for, enjoy and appe-
ciatp.

Here is Port Jervis story Yes
tcrday afternoon, as Miss Blandina
Citing, who lives with her brother,
Philip Elting, on farm just on the
outskirts of this village, was going to
the barn, her attention was attracted
by the barking of the dog mt the back
of the house. She saw that the dog
kept looking up to the roof of the
house, and as she glanced up she saw
young man crouching on the low cX-
tension. "What are you doing up
there 81 she asked. The young man
replied that he was afraid of the dog.
"You come down. was Miss Elting'S
response, and down he came. Before
his feet had touched the ground, Miss
Elting had him by the collar and was
shaking him up in Il lively manner. He
tried to trip her and throw her down
the bank into the Ncversink river,
which flows just back of the house,
but Miss Citing was too much for him.
She threw him to the ground and held
him down until two of the farm hands,
who were working some distance away,
came to her assistance. The three
took him into the house, and setting
him in il chair wound 90 feet of clothes
line around him and the chair. Miss
Elting then got ready to come to town,
and locking the house she walked TO
the office of Judge HOlbroOk and pro-
cured warrant for the arrest of the
young man.

WheeIbarrOw Religion.

| believe il was Richard Baxter who
spoke of some persons who had wheel
barrow religion in his day, and that
family has not become extinct Many
of them are alive and wcll-that Is,
like whcclharrows also. n wheel
harrow. Won know, goes only when 1t
is pushed. So do they, and sometimes
il takes hard pushing to make them go.
A whcelbarTow is easily upset, so are
they. When II wheclbarrow upscts II
spills everything off that was on 1t
and this kind of Christians make rs
complete a spill Of cvcryt z when
they upset. A whcclharrow never gets
up itself when it is upset. Neither do
they. Somebody must always pick
them up, or they stay upset Christians
all their lives. A whcelbarrow Is an
ugly thing to fall over when a per
son gets to falling over one he never
knows when he is going to quit or get
done. And it is just so with this KIND
of Christians. If IA man or woman be
gins to fall over one of them, alas for
them. Unless they get clear OF the
one wheeled wagons latitude they will
have "a long fall of it. Then let every
body keep clear of these wheclbarrow
Christians. if they would keep from IA

This kind of Christians are plenticr
than whcclbarrows are. 1t is only
here and there, now and then,
that a man can get whcclbarrow If
hc needs one, but you can find wheel

are some of them in every ncighbor-

Canker Worms.

In those cases where the grub of the
cankcr worm has not been prevented
from getting up the trees to lay their
eggs, the canler worms themselves
may be etfectually destroyed by an
application of teaspOonful of Paris
green to bucket of water. Paris
green is not soluble i'll water, so the
mixture must be stirred as it is applied.
The application is made when there is
little or no wind by Johnson or SINH
lar force pump, the water being drawn
in wagon on both sides of the rows
of trees, so that all parts can he thor
oughly sprinkled. One application is
sufficient, and it is perfectly harmless
to the trees and fruit. This is very
cheap remedy, and easily applied. The
cankcr worms mature and leave the
trees from the twentieth to the twenty
third of June. They should be killed,
however, as soon as they fairly make
their appearance, before the leaves
have fully grown, and before the
worms have had time to do serious
damage

Tomato Pruning.


No one who has not tried it can have
any idea of how valuable the leaves
are to the tomato plant. One may for
experiment take of most of the leaves
of Il plant, and he will find the flavor
mSipid, and every way poor. OF course
it is the peculiar acidity of the tomato
that gives it so much value to all of us ;
but the acid from the tomato that has
ripened on an insufficient amount of
foliage is disagrecable to most tastes.
The same principle has been found to
work in managing grapevines. The
man who .iudiciously pinchcs back the
branches does well but he who strips
off the foliage to ''let in the sun and
air." generally finds that he has made
a bad mess of it.-[Germamtown Tele-
