Value of True Friendship.

Friendships there that abide and grow
stronger as the years roll on. There are those
who prove themselves worthy of all the confidence
reposed in them. Trusted. tried and true, they
contribute not little to the charm and 10y of
life. But who has not known some disappoint-
ments in friendships? Who cannot tell of sad
surprises concerning those whom he had thought
most sincere and faithful? Can wonder that
sometimes meet with those who greve us by
their cynical and misanthropic moods? Far diff
ferent might they have been if their cherished illu.
sons of friendship had not been dssipated so that
they have exchanged hope for distrust. In the
catalogue of earthly blessings there are few COM

few cheap pictures and that neatness which
is their characteristic.
They are slaves? Yes or no. Yes. if
you mean they must work, and right hard,
too, or starve. No. it you mean they are
cringing, servile and without self-respect.
They are as blithesome and gay as their
circumstances allow, and find more in life
and get more out of it than many another
who has plenty and to spare.
There is no higher moral courage than
that which some of these girls exhibit in
their daily lives. Their lot is decidedly
burdensome. Their lines have not fallen
in pleasant places. They have none of this
worlds goods. They are doomed to drudg
cry in order to pay the rent, get food, fuel
and decent clothes. and yet they frequently
do what no man can dO-maintain their
independence, laugh at i'll fortune. pay
their debts keep their faith in the eternal
veritieS and live unspOtted lives.
Men in like surroundings would become
tramps, criminals or anarchists.

The Power of a Good Name.

Here is a story for YOU boys-one that will show
you the mighty influence of a good character, such

proven at any time.
Among the prisoners at the great state prison
at Trenton, N. j., there was man named James
Driscoll. He bore very bad character, having

keepers always carry heavy pistols. Two of the
officers after Driscoll and told him that if he
did not surrender they would be compelled to
shoot. He replied that he did not care: they
might shoot him if they liked but he would have
one life any way. The first keeper then said to
him:
"Driscoll, if you don't lay those things down at

CARE OF THE HOGS.

Precautions That Have to he Adopted
with the Coming OF told Nights
With the coming of cold nights or
cold rains, trouble may be expected
in the swine department of most farms.
It is therefore in order to caution the
breeder about checking cough among
the pigs. Some strong wood ashes
mixed with their drink or swiu, will,
as rule. check the cold at once; but
lye in the proportion of pint to three
gallons of water or swill, is probably
better still Ordinary ''soft soap
such as every family usually has-is a
good substitute for the above. Com
mon sense suggests that ''cold'' if
not stopped will result in lung fever
Or some of the other febrile com
plants. =
OF course. prevention of disease is
the most to be desired. A sheltered
sleeping place. after frost sets in. is
one good sanitary point. But unless
the sleeping apartments are sub-diyid-
ed to prevent more than five or six
large hogs or double that number of
shoates from ''piling up together, the
shelter does not accomplish much ex-
cept in warding off dews and frosts.
A variety OF grain food-some of it old
corn las we'll as the new). along with
q ''bran and oats slop, . once day, is
desirable. Plenty Of rock salt, always
accessible, is good to keep the System
in tone. Glover. bluegrass or other
pasture is an advantage to growing
hogs, and in fact to most fatteninp
stock in autumn. As rule, however.
care should be exercised. on frosty
mornings. to prevent the stock, young
pigs and shoats especially, from going
into the pasture before the frost is OF
the grass Cold dews or frost Is the
cause of much Of the diarrhma among
pigs Recalling of experiences and
consultation with a fellow-breeder viii
give the farmer and pork-grower
other rules Of value to be observed.
Diligent care is the watchword. -

A GREAT INVENTION.

One That May Revo1utionize Railway
Traffic in the Near Future.
The most remarkable railway in the
world is at Laurel, Nd. It is circular,
Ike race track, and two miles in cir
conference. A clumsy iron motor,
half as tall as a man and pointed at
one end, darts out along the narrow
line when the operator touches a but
ton 1t is out of sight in second. In
a minute it reappears, having made
the two miles. It is the electric rail-
way system invented by David G.
Weems- Mr.. Weems says that rate
Of four miles minute can be at
tanned. In fact there will be no limit
to the speed except the capacity of the
cars and track A double track line
from Chicago to New York could be
built for about $12. DOC. 600 The road,
with twelye-inch gauge and cars two
and half feet wide, would be in
closed in barbed wire and would Cross
populous places above grade. Nine
stations would furnish electric power.
Each train would carry about a ton of
express and mail matter between New
York and Chicago in five hours. Mil
waukee would get Chicago papers half
an hour from the presses, and New
York morning dailies would reach In
dianapolis at breakfast time. Ten
trains an hour could easily be run. At
first no attempt to run passenger cars
will be made, but it is sure to follow.
The cars, heated and lighted with cleo
fricity, would be about three feet wide,
with a single seat. The traveller could
leave Chicago early in the morning,
lunch in New York, spend the after
noon on Broadway Or Wall street, din.

would moreover. travel in safety, be-
cause the construction of the track
would render it impossible for train
to become derailed, and automatic an
planes would obyiate all danger of
collisions. The express and mail trains
would require no engineer or train
crews, for the trains would be oper-
ated BY the train dispatcher at the end

least injury to the track or accident to
the train would also be shown him
