Only a few days ago mother and
her daughter on their way from Phil
adelphia to Omaha, were changing
trains at one of our passenger sta
tons. Suddenly the girl caught
sight of her father, a San Franciscan,
on his return journey from New York.
He had parted from his wife six
years ago on account of some do
nestle infelicity. The child called
his name-''O papa There papa y
and ran to him. He .clasped her in
his arms. But her work as peace
maker was only begun. ''Now come
over to mamma she continued ca
gerly. s'Do speak to mamma. She
has cried so much and has told me
often how good papa always was. =
That appeal was irresistible. The
husband and father looked at the
wife and mother. He stepped quick
ly to her. They clasped hands and
the unlock editor reconciliation was
an accomplished fact. The west
bound train bore away a reunited
family. 1t was a scene to make
angels sing for joy.

Sg1oMth' q Column,
Spots Boat Ride on Shore.

Two hunters met a bear one day
in the Maine woods, and, after a
lively tussle, succeeded in laying
him out apparently dead. For fear
that he might be playing 'possum,
however, they dragged his body to a
lake near by, and tied the prize to
their boat, which lay high and dry
on the shore. Then leaving hound
to watch the big game, the men went
off in search of something else to
kill. They were hardly out of ear
shot when Mr.. Bear, who was not
nearly so dead as he looked, opened
his eyes and peered about him. All
was quiet. He raised his head, and
glancing into the boat saw Spot ly-
ing asleep. Bruin decided that this
was a good time to start for home !;
so he began working away at the
cord with which his feet were tied
together, and pretty soon he slipped
it off entirely. He got up on his
feet then, but found himself tied
hard and fast to the boat by another
cord or rope, and while he was try
ing to wriggle clear of that also,
Spot woke up. This Disconnected
Bruin, who made a break for the
woods, which came to within a few
yards of the waters edge. Being
still tied to the boat, it followed him,
for it was not very heavy, and he
could pull it along easily. Spot was
so puzzled by the turn which affairs
had taken that he sat still for a few
moments. Bruin stopped then to
lick one of his wounds which began
to be painful, and Spot leaping out
of the boat, flew at HIM. Preferring
peace to war, Bruin logged on again,
and Spot, though more puzzled than
before, jumped into the boat again,
evidently determined that if he could
not prevent his masters property
from being stolen, he would 60 along
and keep an eye on it. The bear,
not daring to halt again, dragged
the boat gravely along nnder Spots
watchful eye, and might have logged
his burden all the way home had
not the unweildly object come to a
dead stop by catching between two
trees. His vigorous efforts to pull
it clear only resulted in detaching
himself from it, so he decided not
to worry about the boat any longer,
but to go home without losing any
more time.
When the hunters found their dog
and boat, Mr.. Bear had reached
home, and was amusing his wife and
cubs with humorous account of his
experience, which however, he wound
up with a solemn warning to the
youngsters to beware of dogs and
boats HaTper's Young People.

Odds and Ends.

The poorest land is too valuable to
grow weeds or briars.
Reduce the amount and improve
the quality of the fencing.
Pasturing meadows is like remov-
ing the door To stop knot-hole.
More hoe is the best remedy for
poor quality among vegetables.
Cultivate the mud-wasps-they are
the sworn fees of the cricket.
Better miss good trade than fail
to praise your chiId's good deed.
Flows in the fence corner are a
sign of ''farm for sale" within ten
years.
A mixture of grasses stimulates
the appetite and affords better nour-
ishment.
Buck wheat and sheep are most
excellent help in renovating foul,
worn land.
Empty the slops on heap of dry
earth under a shed near the house
not in a sink drain.
If the children will despoil flowers
and shrubs in the school-yards, their
parents should blush with shame
A weak fence, a pond near the
house, a scrub male, or a lean ma
nure heap, is not seen on a we'll
managed farm.
Having too many implements is
as bad as not having enough; and
having implements in bad condition
is always bad.
A large per cent. of merchants are
ruined by the failure of other mer-
chants few farmers indeed lose by
the failure of other farmers.
Put it down to the credit of the
silo that at least it has shown farm
ers that their worst faults have not
been in producing, but in utilizing.
Flowing around stumps and rocks
is not unlike driving slower to reach
your destination sooner; yet the
children would be afraid of you if
you did the latter.
The farmer who thinks that to
make money he must go where
land is cheaper, should consider we'll

Rasalanna.

Rasalama was the first martyr for
Christ in Madagascar. The noble
woman met with a few others to
worship the true God even after the
Queen had declared death to all such.
She was arrested and put in irons,
which, being fastened to the feet,
hands, knees and neck, confined the
whole body in position of excruti-
ating pain. In the early morning
she sang hymns as she was borne
along to the place of execution. On
passing the chapel in which she had
been baptized, she exclaimed, !'There
1 heard the words of the Saviour -
After being borne more than mile
farther, she reached the fatal spot.
Here permission being granted her
to pray, she calmly knelt on the
earth, committed her spirit into the
hands of her Redeemer, and fell with
the executioners' spears buried in
her body.
This was on August IA, 1887. In
1868 beautiful church was erected
close to the spot where Rasalama
suffered martyrdom. The Queen who
seemed to share her peoples joy,
was present. At the close of that
year there were II English agents of
whom 8 were ordained ministers, 20
native pastors, 532 native preach
ers and teachers, 37,112 adherents
to Christianity, and 1906 commun-
icants. The present Queen of Mad

Corn should not be fed in excess
sive quantities to brood sows and
growing pigs. Oats or barley is con-
sidered better, as it is more favorable
to the growth of bone and sinew,
while corn tends to the production
Of fat. Bran or middlings compares
very favorably with corn and oats as
a feed for young pigs and brood
sows. A mixture of one part corn,
one part of oats, ground and mixed
with two parts of bran and middlings
would make good combination.

To Boys Commencing Business.

Be on hand promptly in the morn
ing at your place of business, and
make it a point never to be late, and
perform cheerfully every duty. Be
respectful to your employers and to
all in authority over you, and be po-
lite to every one; politeness costs
nothing, and it will help you wonder
fully in getting on in the world. And
above all, be honest and truthful.
The boy who starts in life with
sound mind in sound body, who
falls into no bad habits, who is hon
est, truthful and industrious, who
remembers with grateful love his
father and mother. and who does
not grow away from his church and
Sunday school, has qualities of mind
and heart that will insure him success
to a remarkable degree, even though
he is endowed with only ordinary
mental capacity; for honor, truth
and industry are more than genius.
Don't be foppish in your dress, and
don't buy anything before you have
the money to pay for it. Shun bill
lard saloons and be careful how you
spend the evenings. Cultivate a
taste for reading and read only good
books With love for reading you
will find in books friends ever true,
and full of cheer in time of gloom
and sweet companionship for lonely
hours. Other friends may grow cold
and forsake you, but books are al
ways the same And in closing,
boys, would say again, that with
truth, honesty and industry and a
living faith in God, you will succeed.

1t is claimed that in Northern Da-
kota wheat is threshing out only
eight bushels per acre, and of poor
quality at that.
Illinois has 100000 acres in
corn. The oat crop amounted to
over $50, 100000 bushels, and the
wheat crop to 100000 bushels.
A leading Minneapolis miller says
that ten million bushels of the wheat
of Minnesota and Dakota this year
will be unfit for good flour.

DR.. B. Burr intends to have a
poultry farm on which he will win
ter 10000 hens, 800 ducks, 200 tur-
keys, so geese, or 1850 all told.
This is certainly large, but only
about one-fifth as large as that of
M. De Sora, of France. He has,
without doubt, the largest poultry
farm in the world. During the last
year his average production of eggs
was $4,000 dozen weekly. His eggs
and young chickens sold produced
about $28O,OOO. OF this S145, 900
was expenses, leaving a net profit
of 675, 900 francs, or S135 900. Dur
ing September, October and Novem-
Der, he sends over 1000 dozen ca
pons to the Paris markets. He dis
cards altogether the hen-hatching
process, using onlys that of artificial
incubation by steam heat. His feed
consists principally of animal flesh
chopped fine, alternating it with veg
etables and grains boiled. 1t is but
a few years ago that he commenced
with a capital of $3.50; now he has
constantly employed over 100 hands
about his vast establishment, which
he has Systematically divided into
different departments. His real in
come is now about $500, OOO,o of which
at least one-half is clear profit. Just
how many chickens he has is not
known, but estimated at about $780,
900. He discards absolutely the
Asiastic breeds. France appears to
be the only nation thus partial.
