Neaafnl Rnhhls Picking.

The Chicago Inter Ocean, recently made
an appeal to the country press which
ought not to go UNDECIDED. The jerry
Simpson type Of orator is now abroad in
the land, and this is the kind OF stuff he
is feeding the American farmer ons
"Lookt how high tariff prices affect the
farmer 1t now takes a load of potatoes
to buy pair of boots; big steer buys a
plain suit of clothes for everyday wear;
it takes good cow to buy plain over
coat; load of corn buys cap and NIT
tens; load of oats will furnish cores
ponding suit of underclothing. So that
when the farmer returns home from the
country store he carries on his person the
value of big steer, good cow, and
thirty bushels or more OF corn, OF oats
and of potatoes.
The average farmer of New York State
is not likely to be fooled by this silly
talk, but unless fatty contradicted and
fully shown up the lying statements of
free trade speakers and newspapers sink
in here and there and mislead the people.
1t is therefore gratifying, as our Chicago
contemporary pointed out few days
ago, to find some of the country papers
taking the absurd statement up and dis
posing of it in effective manner.
AS the statements made above are so
extravagantly false, we felt constrained
to make some inquiries, and with the
assistance of farmer, one of the class
the item was calculated to catch, we are
able to produce few figures which re-
feet no credit upon the author OF the
Sturgis advertiser. (Sturgis, Dakota [S.D.]) 1887-1???, 1891-05-14
be done carefully. A little practice
with any of these tricks, and the young
beginner will soon become expert.
A Sermon in Five Lines.

"It takes so little to make a child
happy that it is pity in world full
of sunshine and pleasant things that
there should be any wisttfftll faces,
empty hands, or lonely young hearts.
found these words in an old news
paper the other day. They were headed !:
"A Sermon in Five Lines" and they
came home to me with all the force Of
personal appeal.
at takes so little to make child
happy" How many times Lhave seen
the most trivial incident lift my own
little boy into the very ecstasy of hap
piness. How often would some simple
gift or song or story chase the tears
from his eyes and bring smiles to his
face! And yet, I thought with pang
of regret, how many times I had
chided him needlessly; how many
times had refused to exert myself at
all for his sake; That very night he
had gone to bed with heavy heart be-
cause would not romp with him. I
was too tired, said. 1 stepped into
they boys room before went to bed
that night, and passing my hand over
his faxen hair / resolved that in the
future I would be better father to
him.
"It is pity that there should be any
wistful faces, empty hands, or lonely
young hearts, thought as dropped
asleep. 1 remember that later in the
night I was dreaming of visiting a
great factory and inspecting the ma
chinery. Morris Waite.

Johnny and the Cherry.

The way in which children put
things is often very droll from the as
ISOLATION of ideas which it shows must
exist in their minds. says the Boston
Courier. They have so much to learn
that it is no wonder that it takes them
a good while to separate their ideas so
as to keep things from being jumbled
up in their thoughts and in their
speech.
In San Francisco kindergarten one
day the teacher distributed little
basket of cherries which had been sent
in by friend, and so many were the
children that there proved to be but
one cherry for each child. 1t is the
rule that when there is any treat of
this sort the children shall wait until
all are served, and not begin to eat I'M
til all are ready. On this occasion,
however, one small boy positively
could not restrain his eagerness, and
the teacher saw him nibbling at the
dainty before the word was given.
Johnny" she said pleasantly, II am
afraid you have eaten your cherry"
He opened little grimy fist, dis
closing the stem and stone of the de-
parted fruit.
aYes, m'm, he answered cheerfuIly:
I've eaten all but the bone and the
tail"

The forces of nature were utilized
in O remarkable manner at the West
Hartford, Conn.,, reservoirs, and good
deal of money was saved to the city
thereby. The new reservoir, No. 5,
was drawn down last summer in order
to be cleaned out. The job had not
been finished when cold weather came
on, about one third of the bottom still
being untouched. The water was shut
out, but small quantity of rain and
melted snow soon covered the bottom
with several inches of water. This
froze solid over the muck which cover
ed the uncleaned portion of the reser-
voir bed. Later ON the gate was
opened and the reservoir allowed to
fill with water. As the water rose the
layer of ice on the bottom rose also,
bringing with it the mass of muck on
which it lay and to which it was firmly
attached This operation was per-
formed gradually, and the ice kept
growing thicker. At length the water
rose to its full height, and then the ice
with it's burden of muck was hauled
ashore, where it now lies. The bottom
of the reservoir was perfectly cleaned,
and the work thus easily done would
have kept large gang Of men at work
for o considerable period.
