Work for the Harvest.

We are still in the seed time in America.
But within the next 80 years the country will
take its final form. The land (the best of it)
will be pre-empted. The population will settle
down into fixed ways. Foreigners will no
longer be taught as their first lesson in En-

which are now most active and aggressive will
then dominate. Let us push things" Or
galize churches, multiply schools, circulate

Gospel in human shape. If Christianity pro-
poses to,hold America, it must be up and do

4 Strong Minded Female.

A lady in this city raised iot of
nice chickens and among a whole
brood there was only one rooste-,
but he was likely fellow. He gave
early evidence of his sex by
growing a pair OF MexIcsn spurs
and a long, brilliant comb He was
a gallant young swell and his crowd
was lusty and frequent. A more
promising young chantlc!eer was
never Matched. But one day an older
and more experienced rooster in
vaded the young fellows barnyard
and soon took all the conceit out of
him. For some days he seemed ex-
tremely melan choly and stunned
society. A day or tso ago he got
on the back gallery and constructed
a nest after the manner OF hens who
mean business. The lady out Of
curiosity, watched him. When the
nest was finished he sat down on
1t. 1t seemed to fit him very well.
He sat there long time, as il com
muning with his thoughts. Finally lie
jumped up and cackled in great
glee. A peep into the nest revealed
newly laid egg. There have been
some marvellous stories about people
changing their sex, every one who
reads them mentally gives them the
lie, but this is a fact that ca not be
disputed 1t is believed, however that
this chicken was never rooster bu'
was a hen ct the start. She mi light
have been ashamed OF her sex and
wanted to wear pants, like DR..
Mary Walker, but she was not
built that way.

Mothers.

There are upon the skin OF every hu-
man being, child and adult alike, 500
900 pores. Through these pores in the
form of insensible perspiration,, is ex-
PEELED more than quarter of the
nourishment taken into the system.
The Importance of keeping open these
perspiration valves upon q child's body,
is second only to thgt of promptly di-
costing the food eaten. Ii was to open
the pores of the skin aud to assimilate
the food that DR.. Pitcher formulated
Castoria. Loose bowels, constipation,
fesers and erupticns which are SO con-
slant among infants and childron, and
which kill one-third of all children be-
fore they are five years old, arise prin-
cipally from these two causes. 1t is
from the wonderful results attendant
upon the use of Castoria in regulating
the stomachs and bowels ard keeping
open the pores of the skin, that Castu-
ria acquired its world wide reputation
With plenty of water Tor the. body,
pure air for the lungs and Castoria to
assimilate the fo"d, there need be no
unaccounted for sickness among chill
dren Castoria is a vegetable prescrip-
ton without morphine or other narcotic
properly. Thirty years extensive use
has given it history yer attained by
another medicine.

The Diy0rca EciL.

Cardinal Gibbons in an interyie W
published in the New York Herald
declares the Catholic doctrine up
holding the inviolability of the mar
rlage contract, aud condemning the
laxiry Of times in the matter of
divorces. There can be no
doubt that the divorce evil is one Of
the greatest evils threatening
society. The Cardinal wisely says
''Fhe ease with which releases from
matrimonial contracts are obtained
in some Of our state is fra ught with
dangerous consequences. Some OF
the pretended causes Invoked are
SO trivial that they would raise a
smile if the matter were not so ter
ribly serious. You may shrink tom
the rigor of the Catholic teaching,
but surely 1t is merciful beside the
cruel consequences of the indis-
criminate divorces we see nowadays.
