Dogs ON the Farm.

Occasionally We may find dog that
is valuable to the owner, but nine out
ten dogs cause more trouble and dam
age than they are worth. And tspec-
tally on farms where more or less
stock is kept. There are but few dogs
that can be trursled TO drive stock. In
a majority of cases il you attempt TO
drive hogs, cattle, sheep or horses with
the dog such as is usually kept upon the
farm, more damage will be caused and
more extra trouble occasioned than the
dogs are worth. How many times
have you seen a farmer set his dog on
stock To drive them out of a plG ce
where 5hey are not wanted, aud then
and there be obliged to take double the
trouble it would have been to have
driven them out without the dog and
especially in calling him off, leaving
out entirely the damage done 10 the
stock. No stock, whether kept for
breeding or to fatten, can be worried
without more or less loss. Cows that
are driven home by dog that barks at
their heads and then at their heels. runs
them over the pasture heating them up
and working them into a high state Cf
excitement, will nearly always show the
effect OF this treatment by giving a less
quantity of milk. Fattening cattle CT
hogs lose flesh and breeding stock abort
simply because dog is allowed to wor
Iy them unnecessarily.

An Alarm Clock under the sofa.

A mother lately requested her daugh-
ter, who is just approaching woman
hood, TO give her beau hint that she
must not sit up later than 10 O'Clock.
This the girl was reluctant to do, but
her little brother threatened that unless
she did he would open the parior door
and announce the maternal edict. The
sister supposed that she had put quiet
US on her brother by reminding him of
his playing hockey and forging his
mothers name to excuses from school
TO go skating, not forgetting to men
tion the little riding whip his mamma
kept in her room. All this, however,
was not enough to keep the youth from
getting even with Sis's beau for not
giving him anything Christmas.
The other evening he got an alarm
clock with bell as loud as the gong
on the Brooklyn Bridge" bob and
placsd it under che sofa where his sister
and her betrothed were to do their
spooning. The hands were pointed at
10. The unsuspecting girl heard the
tick, but took it 10 be her lovers Water
bury. He was just tickling her ear
with yarn about a horse his papa was
going TO buy when the gong sounded.
There was pause-and then, as though b
understanding the meaning, he grabbed
his hat and never stopped running until
he struck the door stoop, when he flew.
The boy had iced the steps. The little
brother now takes a cushion to school
with him.

Car Riding Before the Mar.

People who travel nowadays in Pull
man sIeepers and buffet caTs can't
imagine what railroadiDg used 10 be
before the war in the west. Now the
percentage of deaths by accident on rail-
roads is very small. Tten a man took
his life in his hand when he made
trip on the railroad. The rails then
were known as strap rails. fiat pieces oi

Two Girls.

There is a girl, and 1 love to think Of
her and talk Of her, who comes in late
when there is company, who wears 9
pretty little air of mingled responsibility J
and anxiety with her youth, whom the
others seem to depend upon and look to
for many comforts. She is the girl who
helps mother.
In her own home she is a blessed
little saint and comforter. She takes
unfinished tasks from the tired stiff
fingers that falter at their work her
strong young figure is staff upon
which the gray haired, white-faced
mother leans and is rested. She helps
mother with the spring sewing, with
the weeks mendirg, with a cheerful
conversation and congenial compan.
ionship that some girls do not think
worth while wasting on only mother.
And when there comes day when she
must bend over the old worn out body
of mother lying unheedful In her coffin.
her rough hands folded. her long dis
quiet merged in rest, something very
sweet will be mingled with her loss, and
the girl who helps mother will find q
benediction of peace upou her head and
in her heart.
The girl who works-God bless her !!
lis another girl whom 1 know. She is
brave and active. She is not too proud
to earn her own living or ashamed to be
caught at her daily task. She is
stuoious and painstaking and patient.
She smiles at you from behind counter
or desk. There is a memory OF her
sewn into each silken gown. She is
like a beautiful mountaineer already
far up the hill, and the sight of her
should be fine inspiration for US all.
1t is an honor to know this girl-to be
worthy of her regard. Her hand may
be stained by factory grease or printers
ink. but it is an honest hand and q
helping hand. 1t stays misfortune
from many homes it is one shield that
protects many forlorn little family
from the alsmhouse aud the asylum.

Invention or Telegraph Operators.

It is a latent signal transmitter called
the teleseme. In all former means of
communication of this kind the moment
the signal was operated at one stand IL
was transmitted 20 the second or receiv-
ing stand. Such was the case with the
telephone, and telegraph. and push but
ton, and railway signals, etc. This
made It necessary that there should be
some person or instrument at the Ie-
ceiving stand to receive the signals a.
The instant they were operated, or else
the sending operator would have to wait
until the receiving operator was at the
receiving stand. and also, the receiving
operator would have to leave whatever
he was at 20 keep tie operator at the
sending stand from waiting. Now the
principle of this latent signal is that in
stead of being transmitted Immediately,
1t remains locked mp, set or stored at
the receiving stand and subject to the
control of the receiving operator, after
it has been set or prepared by the send
er. In other words. ii Is sort of COM
bination telegraph and photograph.

Not All Profit.

There are some among our readsrs
who, we fear, think farming an exceed
ingly profitable business, and that any
one can make money at il. This is a
great mistake, as macy have found to
their sorrow. We do not ish TO mis-
lead any one by giving results OF crops
obtained under peculiarly favorable cir
cumstances. Farming, like every other
calling, has its advantages and its dis
advantages. When properly conducted,
II will yield a good living, and possib, y
something more. No one should ex-
pect TO get rich suddenly in this busi-
ness. 1t is a healthfpl, and in many
respects independent and peasant EN-
ployment, and one worthy the attention
OF men of brains. IL is not now true, IL
1t ever was, that every Ounce can get a
better living py farming than by any
other occupation. We do rot wish 10
discourage those who are thinking Of
farming for a llfe-work, nor, on the
other hand, are we willing to gloIify II
so as TO mislead. 10 Is our desire to i'm
press upon all our farmer friends the i'm
portance of so conducting their business
as TO secure the very best results.

Growing Tall by Exercise.

Exercise is generally taken Without
any direct reference to the increase Of
height. Thus it often happens that the
gymnastios feats chiefly indulged in
tend rather to.check than to increase the
ijite af sraru This .applies nRrtiels-,
lar)y to the lifting Of heavy weights,
the use of large dumb bells. involving
comparatively slow movements, and all
exercises which tend to increase the
supporting power, OF the spine and the
leg bones, even though they may be
exercises primarily directed to increase
the muscular power Of the arms. Pull
ing exercises, though they tend to in
crease the development of the arms in
length as we'll as in girth Ground the
forearm chieGy), do not on the whole
favor the development Of length of
limb. Sailors, who from boyhood up
ward are much employed in pulling and
hauling, are on the average short men,
though often the development Of
strength and weight resulting from
their active open air lives Is remarkable.
We oftener see among them than in
other classes brawny chests, shoulders
and upper arms In company with lower
limbs which by comparison appear
almost stunted. On the other hand,
men engaged in hunting, or in occupa
tions requiring much walking, running,
leaping and the like, acquire we'll de-
veloped lower limbs. and are on the
average taller than other classes.
