A Composition on Girls.

Girls are a nuisance in a family
where there is a boy. They are al
ways breaking something and blam-
ing it to him.
If they are going to an entertain
ment that commences at s o'clock they
will begin to get ready at 6 O'Clock
and stand before the glass an hour
and half at least. You can go into
any house where girl lives and lift
up the mat before the glass and you
will see there is hardly any carpet
left there. The folks always let them
come in the front door, while the boys
have to go around to the back door,
day or night. They can stay out Of
school any time they want to, but a
boy cannot unless he plays truant.
If girls want to 60 out at night to
firt with the boys, they tell their
folks they are going to church but if
boy tells his folks that, they think
he is lying.
Girls can 90 to their brothers bu-
reau drawer and mix everything up
and read his letters and then plague
him about them. Then they are mad
at him because he scolds about it,
and if boy goes to his sisters bu-
reau drawer to get something she
stole out of his. she will make a noise
like some wild animal and scare the
life out of him.
Girls are always on hand when
there is any candy brought into the
house, and generally eat it all up be-
fore their brother gets around. And
if ever your folks want to 60 out to
spend the evening their brother has
got to stay with them, because they
are afraid to stay alone, and if boy
ever wants to have a girl 90 to a
party with him, she will not go; she
has got a headache or something.
If ever boy smokes, his sister is
liable to be behind some corner and
see him and go home and tell his
father and mother and then he gets q
licking, all on her account and then
she will want him to go to the store
three times a week for tea lead to dc
her hair up on.
All girls are good for is to dc
homework and wear out clothes. One
boy is worth three girls. Now, boy:
and girls, this is all true, for have
two sisters myself and know all abou

Turnips, Beets and Carrots.

In the growing of roots | can see
the need of closer planting. | can
grow just as good turnips in rows 20
inches apart, and only 6 inches in
the row, and at least one-third more
on the same land. But some one
says, eve want rows far enough
apart so as to use cultivator and
horse" Very well, it can be done
in space of 20 inches. Use not
over three teeth and a narrow Gull
tivator much less than the space.
But if we are working less land, as
we shall by closer planting, it is not
a very hard job to do it by hand. |
grew 100 bushels of ruta-bagas last
season and used no horse to cultivate.
AS we usually plant such in July we
have less weeds and the soil works
easy. AS to cattle beets they can
be grown one third closer, at least,
than usually grown. Now why not
dress less land and work it better /;
plant close. Another gain is, the
vegetables are really better; not so
woody and more uniform in size.
Did one ever think how close carrots
are grown, and what wonderful yields
we get? Close growing tells the
whole story, and what crop pays
better than carrots? l would advise
all to try the Guerande; it is a new
variety. / raised % l-2 bushels

pulled by hand, and they are fine

and butter and have healthy effect
on the stock. | shall grow them
more extensively in the future. If
they get chilled by any means they
are less affected than turnips and
heets they will endure more cold in
winter than turnips, | want va
riety of vegetables; than chop them
all together and feed some bran and
cotton-seed, and we have good gilt
edge butter all winter and the COWS
are ready for business in summer.
| have an old shovel, ground sharp,
and a place to hang it close by box
to chop the roots in, and thus | save
the fuss and bother of knife work,
and if we grow the best and smooth
est sorts of roots, we have but little
cleaning to do. Shake them well in
a large, coarse sieve and they are
quite clean. Mirror Dc Farmer.

longed to her faithful attachment to

One day, little Clara was in too
great a hurry with the c to mark her

but mamma sang right along, Gloss

And now the baking is never finished

most of us are called to give this tes-

Setteled--But For How Long 7

The presidency is settled for four
years and the composition of congress
for two years, but beyond that who can
tell In no other country is party su-
premacy so much a matter of uncer-
tdinty and doubt. We would suggest
this fact TO Republicans who are con-
graduating themselves on a 25 years
lease of power or TO Democrats who in
their dependency feel inclined To give
up the ship for generation. There is
nothing certain in politics but the un-
expected.
The grandfather OF the president
elect swept the country in 1910, having
been defeated in 1896. bat his party
met Waterloo in 1914 under the lead
Of Harry of the West, the chivalric,
magnetic and honest Henry Clay.
Honesty doesn't always run with mag
netism as the American people have
discovered at later day. In lS4S the
Wings were again successful, but in
1852 the Democrats with Pierce as their
candidate, carried every State but Yer
mont and Massachusetts In the North
and Tennessee and Kentucky ia the
South. Pierce had 254 electoral votes
to AZ for that grand old soldier, Win
field Scott The politicians of the day
set IL down the Democratic party had
come 20 stay, especially as the Whie
party was falling TO pieces. But In two
years tidal wave swept the country.
and in 1854 the Democrats were beaten
out OF sight. There was hardly a
grease spot left. Passing by the war
period, in 1872 Grantcarried the Union
by nearly 100000 popular majority and
2S6 of the 366 electoral votes. Two
years afterward, in 1874, his party Was
overwhelmingly defeated, North and
South, and since that year the Repub-
hcan party, when it has succeeded, has
won by q scratch or the lavish use O,
money contributed by iobbers in politics
and contracts and & q subsidized pro-
tected interests.
1t is not at all prudent to prophesy
political results farther ahead than the
next election, and you can't always hit
IL even theo. The probabilities are that
the difference is rediculously small u,
the popular vote of the country. The
msiority Ia congress is meager. The
gravest problem of our history. except
that of slavery, is before the people for
settlement. The coming administration
must act. The Republican party is no
longer an opposition party. Sut must
face the music and shoulder RESPONSE
bility. The Democratic party takes its
place as the opposition.-PittSbtrg Posi-.
