A Good Name is AIonex.
Prairie Farmer.

LtAIucLs
A farmers name has CONNER
ciaI value as well as that of the
merchant. If every man who
grows a bushel of fruit, makes q
pound of butter or cheese, or who,
in fact, is to have any product for
home or distant market, will re-
solve that he will this year pack
his stuff in the neatest possible
form, pack only the best, and prop
erly brand the packages, he may
be sure he is laying the foundation
of q good name which will be worth
many dollars to hum in the future.
Let it be remembered that the
honest commission man has the
same interest in procuring top
market prices as the producer,
whose goods he handles. He,
therefore, prefers to deal with hon.
est eonsignors, intelligent enough
10 put up only the best, and In the
most approved manner. When he
secures a patron of this kind he
takes extra pains to sell to the
best advantage. He trades on the
name. The name is money to him
as well as to Its owner. Honest
commission men are not phenome-
nal. Parker Earle, president of
the Mississippi Valley Horticul-
5ural Society, in his address before
that body last winter, said: 81
ave had something to do with
commission fruit merchants for
nearly a quarter of a century, hav-
ing done business with over one
hundred and fifty of them in some1
eighty cities of twenty States and
Provinces, without ever having
consciously been cheated out of |
dollar in all that acquaintance"
1t may be set down as a fact, there
fore, that the producer who has de- |
termined to establish good name,
if merely for the money there is in
it, can secure a powerful ally in
the man whom he chooses to han
die his products, if that man has
an equal care for the money value
of his own good name. Sell the
best; put it in the best marketable
form; label it SO that every pur-
chaser will know exactly from
whom it came, and the rest-the
proft-will be forthcoming.

DIR. Hall is authority for the fol-
loving thoughts upon breakfast
Ing before much exercise in the
open air, particularly in districts
where fever and ague are abun-
dant. Breakfast should be eaten
il the morning before leaving the
house for exercise or labor of any
description; those who do it will
BIO able to perform more work
with greater aIacrity than those
who work an hour or two before
breakfast. Besides this, the aver
age duration Of life of those who
work will be number of years
greater than those who do other

weak after having been engaged

avocations.

the next morning there is an in.

ferrous agencies, whether of the
fierce cold of midwinter or of the
poisonous mlasm which rests upon
the surface Of the earth wherever
the sun shines on a blade of vegeta-
ton or a heap of offal. This miasm
is more solid, more concentrated
and hence more malignant about
susrise and sunset than any other
hour OF the twenty-four, because
the cold of the night condenses it,
and it is on the first few inches
above the soil in its most solid
form; but as the sun rises it warns

being taken into the lungs and
swallowed with the saliva into the

Don't be Mean, Boys.

Bardette.
Sometimes l wonder what a
mean man thinks about when he
goes to bed. When he turns out
the light and lies down alone he is
then compelled to be honest with
himself. Not a bright thought,
not a generous impulse, not a word
of blessing, not a grateful look
comes back to him. not a penny
dropped into the palm of poverty,
nor the balm of loving word drop
ped into an aching heart; no sun
beam of encouragement cast upon
a struggling life; no strong right
hand of fellowship reached out to
help some fallen man to his feet
when none of these things come to
him as the "God bless YOU" of the
departed day, how he must hate
himself-how he must try to roll
away from himself and sleep on
the other side ofthe bed-when the
only victory he can think offs some
mean ssvictory, in which he has
wronged a neighbor. No wonder
&c always sneers when he tries to
smile. How pure and good all the
rest ofthe world must look to him,
and how careless and dreary must
his own path appear. Why, even
one isolated act of meanness is
enough to scatter cracker crumbs
in the bed ofthe average man, and
what must be the feelings ola man
whose whole life is given up to
mean acts? When there is so much
and heartache and misery
In the world, anyhow, why should
any one add pound of wickedness
or sadness to the general burden?
Don't be mean, boys. Suffer injus-
lice q thousand tunes rather than
commit it once.

New YORK, May 12.-The con

Bishop Il. w. Hillery, for unpasto,
raj behavior, occupied the atten,
