GOOD-BYES.
Something About the Various Kinds o
Farewells.

Something About the Various Kinds OF
Farewells.
Every now and then. as we journey through
this vale from the cradle to the grave, 1t be-
comes necessary for US to say goodbye.
Generally it is said in sadness and with
sigh. We wiring the hand Of the departing
friend, the sorrowful tears are shed, then
the bell rings and the train goes around the
curve. This is the good bye that sticks in
the throat like large three.cornered lump
and persistently refuses to be swallowed.
After this kind of farewell we go home
feeling that something has gone out OF life.
We are like the man who puts his foot for
another step at the top of the dark stairway
and finds suddenly that it isn't there.
Then there is the farewell that is said
with hilarious chuckle Of JOY We say it
to the bill-collector, whom we have with us
always, or have had for long time. We
say it to the bore, the spring poet, to the
man who reads the exchanges and to the
writer who invariably refers to bear as
bruin. tIUt A- H.o
We say it hurriedly and with rising in.
Election to the book agent, male and female.
W. say it to the man who tells US the funny
story the nine hundred and forty-seventh
time in one day. To the impecunious friend
and to the man who is ever loaded with
gratuitous advice. Very often we yearn
for chance to say it long before the oppor-
tunity is presented.
Distinctive are the good-byes of the dude,
the giggling girl and the gibbering idiot.
Deliver US from the long drawn out fare.
well of the female of our species, unless,
perchance, the said female is young and
fair. tHIs..0t i.
The casual goodbye is used more gen.
orally, perhaps, than any other variety. II
equals in significance the how-dye-do of our
everyday life, and is about as useful as
would be hat-rack in Heaven.
A welcome goodbye is that Of the man
who pushes, with difficulty, the eighteen
carat odor Of his breath in front Of him, ant
who longs to confide in his friends; and ir
this same category may be listed the mar
who guZzles the red-hot demon, rum.
The sweetest goodbye is that of the cir
at her fathers front gate, when only 70,
or and the girl and twinkling stars art
present. To some of us it is only memory
this kind of farewell, but it is memory
that will remain fresh and green long aftel
we have passed that callow age.
The saddest goodbye is the one that il
said by the side of an open grave.

AFTER MANY YEARS.
A Mean Deed That Cost Its Doer . Scat
in tho United States Senate.

A Mean Deed That Cost Its DOer q Seat
in the United States Senate.
Thirty years ago little boy was given
quarter Of dollar for spending-money.
As he was walking down street, very
happy, he met with an older boy and showed
him the money, saying as he did SO: "See
what my good papa gave me to speno."
The older boy knocked it out Of the little
fellows hand, snatched it up and ran away
with it. The little boy was almost heart
broken, but when he went home crying
and told about it, his mamma gave him an
other quarter. This Modified him, but he
never forgave that older boy. The war
came on, and the older boy was given a
commission in the army, while the little
one remained at home, because he was too
young to enlist. After the war the younger
boy became a clerk in the War Department
Within the past fifteen years, the older boy,
who had become lawyer and an orator,
announced himself as u candidate for the
United States Senate, and he had large
following
1t looked as though he might be elected.
But one morning the newspapers of the
country, especially of his own State, pub
hshed a statement to the effect that the
candidate had been dismissed from the
army for cowardice, and other questionable
conduct. The lawyer denied the charge,
and extracts from the muster rolls in the
War Department were published, showing
that the charge was true. He was not
elected. After his defeat was accomplished
he received letter from Washington con-
tanning the words: "Do you remember the
day you outraged little boys feelings, al
most broke his heart, by stealing a quarter
from hims That deed cost you u seat in the
Senate" This true story might warrant
the moral that honesty and gentlemanly
conduct always pay better than rascality.

Improvements in Passenger Cars.

The Wagner Palace Car Company is revo.
lutionizing the equipment of it's cars and
making them superior TO anything Of the
kind in the world. One Of the greatest i'm
p-ovements is the lighting Of the cars with
gas. The New York Central T. Hudson
River Railroad Company is also equipping
its passenger coaches with gas. About one
hundred Of them running out OF New York
City have been SO equipped. The gas is COM
pressed in q cylinder under each car, and
one filling of cylinder will last the round
trip between New York and Chicago. The
gas is made from petroleum, and furnishes
6O-candle powerlightas againsta 16candle
power light under the old method. Coaches
lighted with gas are as light as parlor, and
passengers can read as well in the night as

HOW TO STACK GRAIN.
There Il No Reason why tho Wor
Should Not he Done We'll.

There Il No Reason why tho Work
Should Not he Done We'll.
There is no reason why every farm
er's boy should not learn the art OF
properly stacking grain and hay.
Nearly every farmer can stack grain
after a fashion, but not one out OF fifty
can build up trim, symmetrical, rain
proof stack. Select the site of the de-
sired stack remote from the shade OF
any building or grove, and arrange
the bottom so that there will be free
circulation Of air underneath. The
plan of preparing .concave bottom,
to give stability to the rick, is not de-
sirable, on account of the natural
tendency of the layers of sheaves to
settle into concave position also,
and make hollow in the center of the
stack, the very thing most to be
avoided. Fix firm, slightly convex
foundation out of stout poles or scant-
lings, and imbed in the ground short
corner uprights, to give rigidity to the
bottom of the stack. Put down first a
layer of straw and then begin the stack.
Put a circle of sheaves, with the butts
out around the convex center. Crowd
them tightly together, and keep the
butts on an even circle. Lay another
circle around the first in the same way,
allowing the sheaves of the second
circle to lap half Of their length on
the first. Follow the same practice
until the limit Of the bottom is
'eached. and then begin at the center
again. A stacker should be on his
knees all the time, and compress the
bundles snugly as he follows the circle
around. Let the outside ring of the
second layer project very slightly over
the foundation layer, and repeat until
the middle Of the desired stack height
is reached. Then place each successive
layer little nearer the center and
gradually bring to tapering peak. 1t
is of vital Importance that the center of
the stack shall be kept more full and
cone-shaped all the way up than is
really wanted. 1t will flatten out
greatly by settling. A steep. smooth
pitch is imperatively required in the
'roof" part of the stack. Straw
should not be discolored by wet and
exposure more than a few inches on
the butts of the outside sheaves. II Is
good plan to cap the peak with q
matching Of broad-leaf marsh grass.
and hang rails over the peak con.
nected by hay rope to held it on.
Grain properly stacked in the manner
described will come through wet
weather without damage to q kernel

stacking to pay for the erection o.

There is an Irish gentleman who drinks
whisky. He was recently in Washington,
and wanted an Office. One day at noon ne
walked into the bar of the Riggs, ordered
his beverage, filled the glass to the brim,
and then said to the bartender: "rd like

manly dispenser of ratbane said: "You
