There has been great deal write

They enjoy farm life as long az other

give us any quantity of advice abou
how We should manage and how we ma
improve our leisure moments during o.,
winter vacation when there il nothin.

let MS see what the leisure of the farm
really is where 1t il run somewhat Oh

the day, on rising at 5o'clock in tn.
morning, (sOme get out even earlier
Is to 20 to the barn and feed about sixt,
head OF stock. This takes two 1neI
an hour at as hard work as NAV be done
In the harvest field. Then haitian hour
for breakfast.
Then there is from twenty to forty
head OF hogs to be fed and looked after,
also the calves and poultry The care
OF the horses come next. Their stalls
cleaned and every animal well curried
and watereh. by this time, work AZ
rapidly rs you may, IL il coming well
on to eight O'Clock. In the mrantiut
the milking, the Swimming and wash

woman and her help, and even these
must be looked after TO See that every
thing is right. Then all the cattle must
be turned ont from the stables. and

each week, but this is only one of the
many things to be- attended to the
butter must also be marketed, and
where there is two or more hundred
pounds each week, il is no small item.
But let lis follow the daily routine.
After the stables are prepared as above
it is ten o'clock. Perhaps there is hay
to De cut, and where most of it used is
subjected to the cutting process, anoth-
'r hour is absorbed. The pigs may
want clean beds and they usually get

We promised to tell some
thing OF general interest
about the carpet trade. This
is it.
! One OF the most highly
esteemed makers of brussels
carpet wcaves the name
BlGELOW into the back of
his carpets, SO that his car
pets may have the full bene-
tit OF his good name. An
other maker, thinking that a
good notion, awhile ago put
his name on the back of his
carpets but the trade
wouldn't buy his carpets with
his name on the back and
now he leaves the name off.
That, the whole of it. And
what does it mean 1t
means but first,
let us say that the scandal we
are about to expose relates
to possibly nine out of ten
dealers in carpets; but that
there are merchants who :
would scorn to sell one make
and deliver another. tnior-
tunatcIy the personal mora
standards OF men iii general
are SO tar short OF high and
true, that merchants in gen
eral must be expected to
cheat whenever they can. {
And indeed the prevailing ="

The Sunday-school is the ally of the
Christian home, and each should sup
plc,ncnt the work of the other. 1t will
always Ice true that the highest ideal
of instruction in the word OF God will
include the preparation and influence
of the home. FaithfulnesS there will
insure the fullest benefits iron. the
Sabbath hour of united worship and
s,ddy. One of the first things every
teacher ought to labor for is to see ire
the thoughtful consideration of the
lesson during the week. The lack of
such preparation is dcmoralizing in
many ways. 1t is not an easy matter
to secure the earnest cooperation of
parents i'm this service for alas, i'll
this. as in many other departments of
spiritual activity. careless indifference
or indolcnt neglect prevails. Because
of this, teachers and pastors need con-
Stantly to urge the duty and blessing
of the home study of the lesson. The
dropping of words of suggestion as to
the way in which this service should
be conducted may often bc of great
good. Parental solicitudc is easily
aroused. and the soil of affection gives
quick root to thoughts that pertain to
the welfare of the children The
