THE RANCHO DEL PAso YEARLING SALE.

THE RANCHO DEL PASO YEARLING SALE.
The sale OF the yearllngs bred by J. b. Haggln at
his ranch in California attended last night by a
large crowd OF spectators. The leading owners and
trainers were only prominent By their absence. The
bidding was slow and without spirit Blue catalogues
tabulated pedigees and buton-hole bouquets do not
advertise sale. few good notices in the live daily
papers will do sale more good than three pages in the
weekly advertising blankets sometimes called sporting
authorities. The yearling sales have at last struck
their level The individual colts and FLIES backed
with good breeding that come from winning families
will bring good prices; the others anything that
noyices in turf history will give. Many ladies were
present. Catalogues at a premium. the small
supply having given out Among the well-known men

Christmas With my Old Mother.

Oh! never felt so happy upon last Christ
night,
coming near the home where mother lives,
The familiar scenes OF childhood, and the win
dow with the light,
And the JOY anticipation ever gives.
Eager fingers tingled gladly as 1 opened the
old gate,
And my feet, impatient, hurried to the door;
And her ears had caught my footsteps, and
her love remembered weII
On the threshold mother met me as of yore
OH clasped her to my bosom, as she used to
clasp her boy,
While her tears and loving kisses answered
mine.
Then she led me to the table, where the good
things kept for me
Were all waiting with the chair of auld lang
syne.
She remembered ev'rything / liked, and how
to make it best,
Serving as though my place were still a
child's;
Cakes and iellies, homemade candy, and ev-
cry choicest thing,
Heaped before me with caresses and her
smiles.
OH 1 seemed very boy again, as we sat talk
ing there,
And she told how she had thought oil, prayed
How I'd been a Joy and comfort to her all her
widowed life;
And her spirit like an angels, could see.
How in ev'ry whistling boy that passed she
heard me coming home.
So she had love-waited for me all the years;
Then, arising from the table, she would stand
caressing me,
As she breathed on me a blessing through
her tears.
When went to bed she came to me and tuck
ed the covers round,
In the dear old way that only mothers kno'.
OH felt so blissful, peaceful and so full of
tender love
That all silent came my glad hearts over
flow.
Happy, grateful, joyful tears shed; ay, cried
myself to sleep,
Dreaming in a heavily dreamland free from
cares;
In my boyhood home and bed again, the COW
ers tucked around,
Safely guarded by my dear old mothers
pray'rs.

The opinion held by many people
who have never had their attention
especially turned to the work of Jean
jacques Rousseau is not that he was
benefactor of his kind, but in reality
he was one of the first apostles of the
modern methods of education, and 1T
is only after all this lapse ofyears that
his ideas have come to be widely
adopted. 1t is he who once said that
we came into the world ignorant, but
with capacity; that education begins
at birth; that we learn incredibly in
the first years; and that as impress
sions supply our first knowledge, those
impressions should be the best, and
should be presentedin the right order;
that the first cry of child is request,
the second a command; that destruc-
tiveness in a child is not cruelty, but
activity; that the sin of children is
their weakness, that strength brings
about virtue, and he who can do all
things will never do wrong things
This we see to be undoubtedly good
reasoning in the light thrown on the
subject of late years; and understand
ing now how greatly our children are
affected by what they see us to be, we
comprehend more fully what they see
us to be, we comprehend more fully
what Thales meant when he said that
men must live in the consciousness
that all around them is filed with
gods, and that this should keep them
more chaste than if they were in the
hottest of temples.

If you are repairing an old house
and wish to have one or two stricking
and effective features, choose a
room for a den and have the whole of
a windowless side finished with draw
ers, cupboards, hooks and pigeon
holes. Shut in some of these with stain
ed glass doors, drape others with real
silk or blue and white porcelain tinted
crapy goods. Leave a gallary along
the top for busts, pottery or unfram-
ed paintings, Cover the floor with
mating and rugs. If possible place
low seats in the windows for plants or
books. Select wrought iron frames
for hanging lamps, with a copper can
die stick placed here and there for
pick up use.
An old portable clothes closet may
be converted into corner shrine for
such a room by being covered with
dark red plush, in which is kept some
family heirlooms or beautiful vase.
A few odd bamboo pieces of furniture
will best harmonic with the rest
of the room, or stiff carved chairs in
dark mahogany. An old fashioned
desk, such as was in constant use in
New England years ago, or any anti
que table or stand will find a suitable
abiding place here.

A LITTLE GIRLS ESSAY On BOYS
Man was made before woman. When
God looked at Adam, he said to him
self: "Well, think [ can do better if
I try again." and then he made Eve.
God liked Eve so much better than
Adam, that there have been more
woman than men. Boys are trouble.
They wear out everything but soap.
If 1 had my way, half the boys in the
world would be girls, and the rest
would be dolls. My papa is so nice,
that l think he must have been little
girl when he was little boy.

We are all dust and ashes. True.
But in some we recognize the dust of

others the dust of the gateway, and
the ashes of turf and stubbles. With

history, but we also read in history of
crocodiles and hyenas; with great

other than vesture. The features of
a man are imprinted on his works;
and more lamps burn over them, and
more religiously, than are lighted in

kindle their own fire, and leave it un-

A teacher in well-known Sunday
school tells of laughable experience
he had recently. He had charge of a
lot of boys one day, and was trying to
make them understand that all good
comes from one source. AS an illus
tration, he told them of building a
house, putting water pipes in with
spigots in all the rooms, these pipes
not being connected with the main in
the street. He said to them, "Sup
pose turn on spigot, and no water
comes: what is the matter?" He
naturally supposed that some OF the
boys would answer that the water was
not turned on at the main. But they
didn't. On the contrary, one boy at
the foot of the class called out in
voice which showed that he thought
that he was right, "You didn't have
your water rent PAID

JAMES MONROE.

The fifth President of our country
was James Monroe. His ancestors
were Virginians, but we have no me-
MORALS of them. They were, how
ever the first settlers of Vermont.
James Monroe was sent to William
and Mary College; but when eighteen
years old he left it and joined Wash
ington at New York. He was pres
ent during the fighting and reteat
across the Jerseys, and in the battle
of Trenton was severely wounded. In
the battle of Germantown, Brandy
wine and Monmouth his bravery and
skill were conspicuous. Then he be-
gan the study of the law with Jeffer-
son; but when Arnold and CORVALLIS
invaded his native State he was quick
ly found among her volunteer defend
ers. At the age of twenty three, in
1872, he was a member of Virginia's
Legislature, and was again elected in
1887. Then he was Minister to France,
and two years after was made Cover
ner of Virginia. Minister to Spain
and England followed, and in 1911 he
was again Governor of Virginia.
Soon after President Madison call
ed him to the duties of Secretary of
State. In 1916 he was elected Presi-
dent, and again in 1920. In his first
term, Illinois, Mississippi and Alaba-
ma were admitted as States, aud Flori-
da was ceded to US by Spain. His sec
ond term was so unanimous that he
had but one dissenting vote-that of
New Hampshire. 1t was during his
second term that Lafayette made his
interesting progress through the coun-
try.
When very yonng he married Miss
Kartright, a lady of New York, whose
beauty and excellence have been
greatly praised by John Quincy Adams.
For nearly fifty years they lived to-
gether in the greatest happiness and
death only separated her from him
for a few months.
Monroe, like Adams and Jefferson,
died on the Fourth of July, and was
buried with public honors in the Sec
ond Street Cemetery, Washington,
1881. In 1853 his remains were re-
moved by the State of Virginia to the
cemetery of Hollywood, overlooking
the city of Richmond, being escorted
to their final resting place by the
Seventh Regiment of New York.
