Words of Wisdom.

Promises hold men farther than BEN
efits; hope is a cable and gratitude q
thread.
There is in all this world no such
fount of deep, strong, deathless love as
that in mothers heart.
In this age almost every person Is q
reader, and receives more instruction
from the press than the pulpit.
The fruit of liberal education is not
learning, but the capacity and desire to
learn not knowledge, but power.
Every idea from the moment of its
emergence, begins to gather material
force, and after awhile makes itself
known. +.
Despotism can no more exist in ma
ton until the liberty of the press be de-
stroyed than the night can happen
before the sun is set.
When Amos Lawrence was asked for
advice, he said: "Young man, base all
your actions upon principle; preserve
your integrity and character, and in
doing this never reckon the cost"
In peace, patriotism really consists
only in this-that every one sweeps be.
fore his own door, and minds his own
business; also learns his own lesson,
that it may be well with him in his own
house.
We should no more lament that we
are growing old than the husbandman,
when the bloom and fragrance of spring
have passed away, should lament that
summer or autumn has come,
Preserve your conscience always soft
and sensitive. If but one sin force Its
way into that tender part of the soul
and dwell easy there, the road is paved
for thousand iniquities.
Our lives should be like the days,
more beautiful in the evening, or like
the spring, aglow with promise, and
like autumn, rich with golden sheaves
when good works and deeds have RI
pened on the field.

CHURCH MANNERs.-Be on time.
No one has right to disturb congre-
cation or preacher by being tardy.
Never talk or whisper in church. es.-
pecially after the exercises are opened.
Do not put on your Overcoat or adjust
your wrappings until after the services
have been formally closed.
No gentleman ever defiles the place of
worship with tobacco.
Never be one Of staring crowd about
the door, or in the vestibule before or
after service.
Never look around to see who is com.
ing in when the door opens.
Be polite to thestranger. Invite him
to q seat, offer him q hymn book, or
share with him your own. Be cordial
to all. But do not be offended if you
are not especially noticed. .s

THE OLD WAY AND THE NEW.

have just come up from the meadow. wife,
where the grass is tall and green:
hobbled ont on my cane to see Johns new
| Moving" machine;
It made my old eyes snap again to see that
mower NOW,
And heaved sigh for the scythe 1 swung
| some twenty years ago.
Many and many's the day I've moved meath
| the rays Of the scorching sun,
TIL thought my poor old back would break
| ere my task for the day was done.
often think Of the days of toll In the fields all
over the farm,
Till feel the sweat on my wrinkled brow and
the old pain come into my arm.
1t was hard work; it was slow work, a swing
ing the old scythe then
Unlike the mower that went through the grass
like death in the ranks of men.
I stood and looked till my old eyes ached,
amazed at Its speed and power
The Work that It took me day to do, it did in
one short hour.
John said that hadn't seen the half: when he
puts 1t into his wheat
shall see tbs sReapes'asfeap and rake it and
put it in bundles neat;
Then soon q Yankee will come along and set
to work and larn
To reap it, and thrash it, and bag it up, and
send 1t into the barn.
John kinder laughed when he said 1t, but said
to the hired men;
II have seen 30 much In my pilgrimage thro'
I my three score years and ten,
That wouldn't be surprised to see railroad
in the air.
Or Yankee in fyin' ship agoin' most any.
where"
There's difference in the work did and the
work my boys now do;
Steady and slow in the good old way, wor-
ry and fret in the new.
But somehow 1 think there was happiness
crowded into those toiling days,
The fast young men Of the present won't see
until they change their ways.
To think that should live to see work done in
this wonderful way!
Old tools are of little service now, and farmin'
is almost play;
The women have got their sewin' machines,
their wringers. and every sich thing
And now play croquet in the dooryard, or sit
In the parlor and sing.
'Twasn't you that had it SO easy, wife, in the
days SO long gone by;
You riz up early. and sat up late, a-toiling for
you andI.
There was cows to milk; there was butter to
make; and day did you stand
A-washing my toiled-stained garments, and
wringing them out by hand.
All, wife. our children Will never see the hard
work we have seen,
For the heavy task and the long task is now
done with the Moving" machine.
No longer the noise of the scythe hear: the
mowsr-there, hear it afar!
A-rattling along through the tall stout grass
with the noise of railroad car.
Well, the old tools now are showed away; they
stand a-gathering rust,
Like many an old man have seen put aside
with only a crust.
When the eye grows dim; when the step is
weak: when the strength goes out of the
arm,
rhe best thing poor old man can do is to hold
the deed of the farm.
There is one old way that they can't improve,
although it has been tried
BY men who have studied and studied, and
worried till they died;
t has shown undimmed for ages, like gold re-
fined from its dross-
It's the way to the kingdom of heaven by TIE
simple way of the cross.
Advance.

BIZ MRS. LOUIS BEDFORD.
Some of the dust from the road Of life
Has fallen upon my hair,
And silver threads from my raven locks
Are cleaning out here and there;
And, oh, these meshes of silver gray
Tell of the moments flown
OF the day that's drawing to close,
And the night that's coming on.
But the coming night seems cold and dark
And my heart is filled with fears,
AS Thought flies backward, on weary wings
Ger the waste of vanished yearsi
And in the castle of Memory
Few jewels are treasured there;
But dross and rubbish that tell of earth
Are visible everywhere.
Even on the faithful register
That hangs in Memory's hall,
find only worthless deeds are traced
They are dark and blotted all
Hence. as approaches the eve Of life.
My spirit shrinks back with fear,
For threatening clouds o'erspread the sky,
And the night seems very near.
By faith turn-in the rosy East
beautiful star see
Stand o'er the manger in Bethlehem,
And 1t seems to shine for me;
And from the city Of golden spires,
Whose gates just now are ajar,
catch a radiant beam of light
From the bright and morning star.
And when upon Jordan's restless wave
shall launch my way-worn bark,
The dust from the road of !ife''* shall fall
From my tresses long and dark;
And the lines of care upon my brow,
And the pain within my bveast,
Shall pass away as my bark draws near
This beautiful land of rest.
.The French call gray hair ''dust from the
'oad of life."

Luther said, eff a man is not hand

struck the bulls eye as far as beauty,

but he died before an officeholder had
acquired the art of saving $25, 900 a year
out of salary of $4,000, hence his re-

Going into Sheep Raising.

In view of the newly awakened in
terest in Sheep raising. that reliable
journal on all subjects connected with
live stock, The LiUe Stock Journal, says
TO correspondent enquiring for infor,
nation:
We would suggest that "New Begin
ner" might find flock which he might
pasture through the summer, at so
much per head, and thus gain infOrma-
sheep, we'll bought, the latter part of
June, to be pastured through the re-
mainder of the season, with q view of
feeding for sale at the most favorable
period, should be judiciously fed from
the start. If the pasture is good, the
sheep will do well on that alone, but a
little extra feed will be literally repaid
in fattening. AS fattening Is the object
sought, let this be done in the most eco
nomicai way. A little grain on pasture
will pay much better than the same
amount of grain in the winter. AS we
have often advised, economy requires
that animals intended for meat should
be pushed in the warm season. A quar-
and wheat bran, or corn and linseed
meal, mixed, for each sheep, will pre-.
duce greater result than twice that
amount of feed in winter with good
hay. The time to give start to fattening
sheep is in the summer. If these sheep
become fat in the fall, 80 much the bet
ter are they for feeding in the winter.
Such sheep will stand the cold, and
gain on much smaller ration, than if
they were thin in the fall. The best
Western feeders of cattle wisely give
corn on pasture. Sheep feeding should
be done in the same way, except that it
is better to give some more nitroge-
nous feed with corn. The rule should
be to push the sheep in warm weather,
and then feeding in winter will be COM
paratively easy.
In 1867. when the number of sheep in
the United States was estimated at near
AZ, ,OOO, 900, the annual yield of wool was
about 81 pounds per sheep: The census
of 1880 present the coincidence of the
came number of animals, while their
wool product is found to be about 81
pounds per sheep.
The marvellous improvement here in
dicated, while cause OF rejoicing to
the patriot, challenges the closest atten-
ton of the economist and statesman.
He will see that, ss a result of the wis
dom and energy and industry OF Amer
ican breeders, the wealth producing ca
| pacity of the Hooks OF the country mas
been enhanced more than 81 per cent.
In the short period of Is years. For
the same amount OF food and attention
that in 1867 secured return of 100
pounds of wool, the flock of owners of
| to. day are rewarded with 157 pounds of
wool, most of it averaging higher in
grade than the clip of previous decades.
Nor is this full measure OF the results
achieved by the sheep breeders of the
United States In the period selected for
comparing the former and present sta
tus of their industry. The careful
breeding and selection required for ims
proving the wool product in quantity
and quality, has resulted in cores
ponding betterment of carcass 30 that
