Conserve Your Strength.

Some of our young people have read

their customers were ut the glass try
ing on their spring hats, wrote a vol
ume of tirstrate poems. The fact is,
40 blacksmith ought to be troubled
with more than five languages and
instead of shoemakers becoming phil
osophers, we would like to turn our
surplus of philosophers into shoemak-
ers ; and the supply of poetry is SO
much greater than the demand that
we wish milliners would stick to their
business. Extraordinary examples OF

4 New Theory of COmpOSting.

| The March No. of the Southern
Farm, Atlanta, Ga, contains two arti-
cles on composing 10y B. +. Browne
of Storeville, Anderson County, S. G..
These articles are scientific yet plain to
the common understanding and Withal
practicable by the average or even to
the "onc horse" farmer.
The editor of the Southern Farm,
who speaks commercially of Mr..
Browns theory, says: "Mr. Brownies
theory is simply this:
| "That the stable manure is to the
compost heap exactly what the lump
of yeast is to the loaf of bread. 1t is
the fermenting principle and when
one compost heap is fermenting by the
stable manure that whole heap will in
turn act as yeast to another heap. For
example, he starts with his first heap.
He makes layer of woods soil or veg
etablc mould. He heaps on this lay
er of stable manure, then another lay
er of vegetable manure, pine straw, or
leaves, or whatever he can get. In
this way he finishes his first compost
heap, and lets it ferment. Ordinarily,
farmer stops right here, having no
more stable manure to use. Mr..
Brown goes further. He takes the
first compost heap and makes another
! double the size, using the Whole of the
first heap just as he used the stable
manure in the first heap by spreading
it in the layers of the vegetable mould.
lie claims that it will ferment the sec
ond heap as perfectly as stable manure
did the first heap, and that, the second
heap can then be doubled into a third
heap, and so OH until the farmer is
ready to use the manure.
Mr.. Browne claims that this process
of doubling up does not weaken the
fertilizer. but that he has tried the
third compost heap alongside of COM
mercial fertilizer and acid phosphate,
and the results have been equal. If
the experiment is conclusive, the dis
covery is all important one. 1t simply
means that on limited amount of sta
BILE manure as start-as yeast for the
big loaf so to speak-the farmer can
continue to multiply compost heap
during the winter as long as he can get
scrapings of leaves, or vegetable
mould, or straw to pile into them"
Mr.. Browne himself says:
l. The principle Oh which fertilizing
matter is made is fermentation.
2. The proper mixture of stable ma
nure and vegetable matter generates
this fermenting process.
3. After the first fermentation is pro-
duced the quantity of manure can be
doubled.
4. When this has been refermented
it can again be doubled, and so OIL re-
peat the process as long as you can
gather vegetable mould and remiX it,
and the last will be as good as the first,
for the whole has been leavened.
All this is not simply theory but
facts demonstrated on my farm forsev-
eral years past"
The plan is surely worth repeated
trials.

IIeart-Peace before Ministry.

Peace in the heart is one of the con-
ditions of good spiritual work. In
deed this qualification is unnecessary,
for the same is true Of all kinds OF
work. We cannot do our best in any
thing if we are fretted and anxious.
n feverish heart makes all inflamed
brain, q clouded eye, and an unsteady
hand.
II is especially true in spiritual work
that we must know the secret of peace
before we can minister either swiftly
or effectively to others in our Masters
name. Feverishness of spirit makes
the hand unskilful in delicate duty.
A troubled heart cannot give comfort
to other troubled hearts; it must first
become calm and quiet. II is often
said that one who has suffered is pre-
pared to help others in suffering; but
this is true only when one has suffered
victoriously, and has passed up out OF
the deep, dark valley of pain and tears
to the radiant mountain-t tops OF peace.
An uncontrolled mOurner cannot be Il
messenger of consolation to another III
grief. One whose heart is still veXed
and unclaimed cannot be a physician
to hearts with bleeding wounds. we
must first have been comforted OF Goa
ourselves before we can comfort Others
in their tribulations.
But there are other fevers besides
those which burn in mems bodies.
There are heart fevers which may rage
within us, even when our bodies are
in perfect health. We find people
,.itl icl, i,.f re hOnnv
contented, frctted, worried, perhaps
insubmissive and rebellious. Or, they
may be in a fever of fear or dread.
These inward fevers are worse evils
than mere bodily illnesses. 1t is bet
ter in sickness to have our hearts 1e-
yer depart, even though we must long
er keep our pain, than to recover our
physical health while we keep our
fretfulness and impatience uncured.
We cannot minister while heart-1e-
yer of any kind is on US. We may
still 60 on with our work, but we can
not do it well; and there will be little
blessing in it. Discomfort hinders any
life's usefulness. Jesus loved Martha,
and accepted her services because lie
knew she loved him; but he told her
that her feverishness was not beautl-
full, and that it detracted from the
worth and full acceptableness of the
good work she did; and he pointed
her to Mary's quiet peace as a letter
way Of living and serving. Anxiety
of any kind units us in some degree
for work. 1t is only when Christ
comes and lays his cool hand upon our
heart, and cures it's fever, that we are
ready for ministering in his name in
the most efficient way.

A Mell-dressed and seemingly lad

A well-dressed and seemingly lady
like woman boarded street car going
up town the other day. There was no
vacant seat, and Il nerVous-looking man
rose hurriedly and offered his. 1t was
accepted without even a bow in &C
acknowledgement. The nervous man re-
tired to the rear platform, and that al
so was pretty well crowded. The car
bowled along some fifteen blocks,
when the well-dressed lady signalled
to the conductor to stop. She swept
to the rear platform, which was still
crowded. The nervous man was Oh
the side from which the lady wished
to get to the street. He tried to take
up as little space as possible, and
squeezed himself into condition Of
painful flatness. But in spite of his
efforts, the well-dressed lady gave him
the benefit of a muscular elbow, and
walked on his feet. Then, having
reached the pavement, she made Il
very audible reference 10 men who
didn't know enough to make way for
a lady. The nervous man seemed
stunned.
"Dear me ~ he exclaimed, "that's
the lady gave up my seat to"
"Cert'nly,n responded the conduc-
tor. "That's the way. Dye know,
I've been takin' fares for good many
years. / believe gentleman ought to
give up his seat to Il lady. But, dye
know, when We give up yer seat to a
adyl, We don't always give up yer seat
to a lady"

Home COurteSieS.

It often seems to me that even Chris
tian parents forget that common po,
liteness in the home affects the moral
welfare of their children. They seem
to forget that this is Christian virtue
and duty, and that to "be courteous
is a divine command.
I spent day recently with the lam,
lily Of a man who possesses SO many
Christian virtues, and VINO IS sucn al
earnest worker for Christ, that 1t seems
like searching for flaws in an Almost
perfect character to write that L de-
tected a defect in that character. l
wondered at its nature and at its eNls-
tence In such q man and IN such a
home.
This defect manifested itself in the
absence of so many of the graceful,
kindly little courtesies that add such q
charm and sweetness to true home
life, and 90 far towards the formation
of right character in children.
There were four children in the fam
ily: They were having merry, bols'
ferrous time when we entered the
house. and there was no diminutlon IN
"Hello. papa" cried the eldest, 9
boy about ten years, "got anything fol
us?"
"No, not to-day" replied the father
"Well, why amt you got any
thing ?n asked the boy impatlently..
ooh, I can't bring you something
every day. I did bring you some
thing, too; I brought you this gentle
man. His name is Mr.. H.
Come and shake hands with him."
IT don't want to,n was the prompt
reply. as the boy turned to his play
One of the younger children came for
ward and asked if I had any candy
Happening to have caramel IN my
pocket, I gave it to her, whereupon
the other three children crowded
around me-" ., T.
"Run away, run away" said the ia
ther. "Don't you know it isn't polite
to tease?"
They evidently did not know it, OF
ignored the fact if they did know IT,
A struggle here ensued for the posses
sion of the caramel which the little
girl had let fall to the floor. :, .,
"Children will be children" said
the father, without attempting to qulet
the disorder. The mother here entered
the room and commanded the children
to "be quiet" and in few moments
we went out to dinner. -,
I regret to write it, but not once did
I hear the words "thank ,you,n OF
"please" at the dinner table. The
husband and wife addressed each other
simply as "John and "Mary.", >.
"Pass the bread, John, the wlie
would say, while he would hand his
cup second time, saying:
"Another cup of coffee, Mary"
The children were sharply reprl,
manded several times and the eldest
boy relapsed into fit of sullenness be,
cause he could not have two pieces oi
rich cake. A.
A dozen times I seemed to hear the
sweet and simple words of Peter
"Love as brethren, be faithful. be cour'
teous," and wondered how the force
of this gentle admonition had failed to
impress itself on this man, and why
he had failed to teach lessons OF simple
courtesy to his children, when love
and kindness and courtesy are the
most beautiful and graceful things
attributes of Christian character.
