NAV be for time unconscious Of
them. and some are rarely conscious
Of anything else. The great work Of
the world Is done under the pressure of
these burdens and by reason of them.
George Eliot says: II believe that
almost all the best books in the world
have been written with the hope Of get
ting money for them" 1t was for bread
that Homer sang his immortal songs,
and for bread that many song, merry
or sad. has been sung since his time.
For bread or its equivalents we fight
our daily battles. Fame, that last
infirmity Of noble minds incites some

days" but the masses of mankind are
compelled to industry and achievement
only BY the pressure Of want in some
one OF its everyday forms. And yet how
we all dream Of getting out from under
this constant pressure!
How to adjust ourselves to the vary
ing burdens that are laid upon us Is
our problem. AT times we may avoid
them. as we shield ourselves from the
wind; at times we may protect our
selves against them, or prop ourselves
so that they do not seem so heavy,
even while we bear them. We need to
learn how to sail into the eye of the
wind. lacking now and then, yet keep
ing straight on our course; how to
carry the enemy by flank movement
when we are unable to attack him in
front; to divide and conquer; TO 20

pail measures the same in horizontal
as in vertical position; to wait a

lets up little. and then push our way

how burdens nobly borne have been as
wings to lift others heavenward, and
we can but trust they will prove such
to us.
We may learn lessons Of courage
and hope from calm and patient ma

have struggled with adversely, and
what great men and women have not'

communion with great thoughts our
souls are filed with courage and scren-
ity and hope, we become insensible to
external pressures. balancing that with

six-footer, and up to recent date
thought he had all sorts of lien on

seemed favorably disposed toward
him, and he was sure that he had
made good impression on the old
gentleman. His visits to the McDood
mansion are not particularly angelic
in their few-and-far- -betweenness.

Prepare for the Hatching Season.

The time is now approaching for the
interested poultryman ard the thrifty
farmer who thinks, and rightly, that
fowls properly managed, are good
paving stock on the farm. to make
preparation for the annual setting of
eggs and Matching of chickens. 1t
will not be we'll for those having no
warm place for the young chicks, to
attempt Matching before the last of
March or the first of April. Pullets
coming out at this time lay in October,
and with good care. will continue to
lay all winter, when eggs are scarce
and high, and cockerels will bring
more for broilers at three months old
than when raised later and kept much
longer. Keep watch of your hocks, so
that the difference in their dispositions
can be noted. Use only those hens for
sitters that are quiet and not inclined
to be nervous, for they will invariably
make surer hatchers and better moth
ers. A hen that is uneasy and wants
to be of the nest frequently during in
cubation, especially in the cold
weather of spring, should not be de-
pended on. Provide the hens with
large, fattish nests, and place whole
corn and fresh water each day near
them. 1t is most necessary to keep
the nest and body of the fowl free
vermin, for if they are not, they will
not sit quietly, and labor and eggs are
lost. 1t cannot be expected that sue
cess will follow attempts at Matching
and raising chickens, Inless the hens
have been kept in clean and thrifty
condition during the winter. Filth
causes weakness and breeds disease.
and the product, if any, of a slovenly
kept flock of fowls, will always be
weak and improbable in the extreme.
