AN OLD MANS STORY.
How and Why He Stole His Own
Pocket-BoOk.

We had gathered class of boys to-
gether in the suburbs of great city,
hoping to make them better. Bats
had been thrown out in the shape of
Christmas festivals, magic lanterns,
concerts and library books, in order
that they might take their moral and
religious instruction as children take
pills in raisins, without knowing it
Most of US were young, all were zeal
Gus, and we found the path stony. 1t
was very trying to find ''swear words
on the blackboard, where a selection
from the Psalms was to be written
every Sunday afternoon; to know that
the truth was not to be expected from
any Of those young lips. and to have
our pockets picked, or the cash-box
r;fied of money with which we intended
to buy shoes for the barefooted and
hats for the hatless; and once when we
had spoken of these things to an old
gentleman who visited us, we evoked a
sermon on dishonesty which certainly
thrilled that roomful Of street Arabs,
and turned their thoughts to better
things, at least for the time being.
After the boys had gone, we focked
about the old gentleman-a rich manu-
facturer from the West-and thanked
him. He had painted the career Of a
thief from the moment he first took to
pilfering to the hour on which theft led
to murder and the gallows, all in plain,
unaffected language, but so thrillingly
that we had been moved to tears.
When we complimented him he smiled

all and went his way.
We never saw him again, but none OF
us ever forgot his story. Mary Kyle

KEEP an eye to the future shape Of the

Sow abundantly the seeds of mignonette,

LIZ your garden is not already stocked

As rule the high-priced novelties are
profitable only TO the man who sells them.
EARLY beets should be sown as early as
the soil becomes warm and dry enough to
work well. The young plants are not in
jured very much by May frosts. The
early turnip beet is considered by many
to be of the best well-established early
varieties. AS soon as the plants are well
above ground the little black fly should
be looked after; little wood ashes sifted
on the plants will protect them from this
enemy.
The location of a garden for early veg.
etables should be on a southern slope,
sheltered from the northerly winds, with a
warm, loamy soil. A garden thus located
with proper care, will mature crops several
weeks earlier than if the location be an un-
favorable one; but earliness is usually at
the expense OF quantity, therefore the prin-
clpal garden to furnish products for home
use should be on strong, moist soil, 10

DishonOred Drafts.

When the stomach dishonors the drafts
made upon it by the rest of the system, it is
necessarily because it's fund of strength is
very low. Toned with Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, it soon begins to pay out vigor in
the shape of pure, rich blood, containing
the elements of muscle, bone and brain.
AS sequence OF the new vigor afforded the
stomach, the bowels perform their fqnc-
tons regularly, and the liver works like
clock work. Malaria has no effect upon q
system thus reinforced.

OBSERVING PERSONS.
Why They Have a Great Advantage Over

Why They Have a Great Advantage Over
Less WatchfuI individuals.
1t is as important to train ones self
in the habit of observation as it is to cul-
tivate any other faculty, such as the
faculty for music, painting, the hand
ling of tools and numerous others.
The Indians understand this. Their
minds are not altogether "untutored. :"
They teach their boys to observe, CIV
ing them thorough lessons in the art OF
observing. and also in remembering
what they see.
For instance, they will mark out q
circle with sticks thrust into the ground.
Without the circumference of this cir
Gle will be dropped, here and there.
different articles, such as bits of buck
skin, a knife a feather and so on.
Then the boys are made to run around
the circle, and notice every object
which has been placed on the ground.
On returning to the starting point, the
boy must tell just what objects he saw,
in the regular order in which he saw
them:
1t would be well if white boys were
always obliged to tell on the return
from trip of any kind just what
they had seen.
The great inventors have very acute
powers of observation. No unusual phe-
nomena escape their notice. Mr. Edi-
son has made improvements in some OF
his inventions by noticing some change
which took place accidentally when he
really was working for results in an
other direction. For instance, he was
working with his electric light appara-
tus, when tool fell on the incandescent
loop and bent it. He noticed that the
light Immediately increased, and.
rightly reasoning that it was due to the
altered shape, he took the hint and
made an extra turn in the loop.
Some men fail to attribute a phenom-
enon to the proper cause.
When in England Mr. Richard Grant
White noticed that the polish on his
shoes would not be entirely destroyed
while walking on lawn after a rain
He mentions this fact in his book on
England, and soberly attributes it to
the fact that the rain water there is not
as wet as that in this country!
The writer, when in England, noticed
the same thing when his shoes were
polished with certain English black
ing, but that when the American black
ing which he took with him was used.
the polish was no more permanent
there when walking in the wet grass
than if he had been in America.
While the detective needs the keenest
powers of observation, there is no pro-
fession, business or trade where a thor
ough development of this faculty is not
of great value to the one possessing it.
DR. Edwin A. Gatchell, in Christian
Union.
1t was not many years ago that the
cotton wood tree was considered use
less for the purposes of lumber. To-
day it is crowding white pine out Of

He said to see the show
He'd often unused how such things looked
And vowed that he would know.

While he should eat cake,
When up there to him came man
Who long his hand did shake;
And called him Mr.. Hokus straight
And asked for all the folk,
And then when Hokus knew him not
He laughed as 'twere a joke;
And said that he was old Smiths son,
Who lived At Hokusville,
And several terms he d gone to school
With Holy's big boy Bill.
Then Hokus knew him we'll and said
That he was glad to see

Which is why this L say;
I'm plain and only speak right on
Like him in Shakespeare's play)
They started off and wllked along,
Till they struck Roosevelt street,
When Smith said he had friend
He'd like that Hoke should meet.
Inside they found the friend at work
A-folding Temperance tracts,
Which OF the curse OF liquor red
/ Presented startling facts.
He warmly grasp-ed Hoky's hand
And shook without pause,
And begged OF him to take a seat
While they discussed The cause.
Then talked they OF the curse OF rum.
And exc the one OF beer,
And how the first of them to shun,
And round the other steer
Then Smith proposed that they should show
The trick was to spill out the cubes
So that the spots should be the Same.
CYou see that it was loaded dice
That they were working in,
And with them they right speedily
Would scoop in Hoky' TIM
So Smith he toyed with them awhile,
And every time he threw
Two or three aces would appear
To Uncle Hoky's view.
Then Hokus said he thought that no
Could aces likewise thrown,
And Smith he said he'd bet ten
That he could not do so.
Then Hokus said he'd like to bet
His pile on such a game,
And he pulled out and stacked his ro'
And Smith he did the same.
Then Hollus reached and took the box
But dropped il on the floor
He explained that he was clumsy
Never handled dice before.
But he was not so green but that he
Managed the dice to hide
And substitute ones loaded on
A very different side.
And then he rose and shook the box
In an awkward kind of way,
And spilled them out in sight Of all
Four aces and u tray!
He showed both piles down in his boot,
And slid out of the door
They heard him hummng as he went,
We've Both Been There Before
L'ENVOI.
Things sometimes are not what they seem;
We all have trials to meet;
