A HOLY PLACE IS THE HeaRTHsroNE

A holy place il the hearthstonc.

And brothers and friends are found

Homes innermost shrine Is there.
Laden with blessed benson
And kailowed by loving prayer.
a holy place Is the hearthstcnS
What clustering joys abide
Where the cradle OF our infancy
Was rocked BY mothers sida
A holy place Is the hearthstone.
Where ehildhood's pattering feet
Co CHANGING in shade and sunshine
To the music of pleasures beat
A holy place is the hearthstone.
Where the youth have wcood aud won.
And wed and gone To the battle
OF life with full srnor on.
a holy place is the hearthstone,
Where manhood has settled down
With blessings poisoning round him.
And love for priceless crown
A hcly place Is the hearthstone,
Whence the old and young have gone
To rest from their weary labor
When the battle OF life was done.
And oh, from the holy hearthstonc.
When parted from those We love,
MAY we go TO meet by the hearthstons

a Mans Idea OF an Apron.


As for the apron. the average man
knows he likes 1t, and yet he can't tell
Just why. He SAYS, very vaguely:
We'll, you know, it's white. and has
such cunning pockets, and the strings
tie so prettily about the waist; and than,
don't you know. its so essentially WON
anly. Tha fellow who looks az it always
thinks TO himself, that girl knows some
thing a5ou. making a home, and he can
imagine her with an apron on walking
around IN the morning, and seeing that
her household is in order. Ia the apron
= the very essence Of ccQueiry.

From the Kansas City Gazette.
a young man killed another in Penn

Judge stopped the case and acquitted
him because a base bali bat is not

FOLKLORE AND FOLK-CURF

Some of the scientists who make
a specially Of folk lore have lately
been making inquiries about the
malady which the country people
called spring fever. 1t is a genuine
malady, though more disagreeable
than serious. Yet it should be tax
en- note of. While the scientists are
inquiring about the tone of the NAL
ady, those who are suffering the las
situde, nervousness and melancho4
liza, that are its symptoms, should
run the disease out of their systems
by means of that more subtle scienz
ence and folk cures. S. S. This
is particularly necessary, since
spring fever leaves the system in
such a condition that it succumbs
readily to diseases that are more
dangerous and less easily controlled.
S. S. S. is a preventive as we'll as a
remedy.

Some people, especially women,
want to be pretty. One way to have
good looks is to have good thoughts,
kind feeling, a loving heart. The
soul within fashions the tenement
without. TIE man whose thoughts
are necessarily fixed upon money
getting comes to have hard, keen
face. The muscles are held so tense
by the thought within that it be-
comes their fixed and settled habit.
And so the genial, kindly, joyous
soul chisels face to correspond to
these emotions, while the heavy
hearted, petulant, morose spirit
lives behind countenance that is
wrinkled and forbiddirg. If, then,
for no other reason than the desire
to be beautiful or attractive, women
should be sweet tempered and gen.

INDUSTRY AND ECONOMY.

Any man of ordinary intelligence
can accumulate moderate compe-
tency by adopting the three princi-
ciples, industry, economy and pa
thence. A mind capable of directing
one in the right course makes sue.
cess almost certain. A young man
starting in life should so conduct
himself as to command the respect
and confidence of all with whom he
comes in contact. The way in which
he is regarded by others will have a
powerful influence ON his future. To
disregard the opinions OF others is
to invite failure.
Without econ omy no man can
succeed, even if he we're placed in
circumstances where there are large
gains. His profits would net be last
ing for he would not be prepared to
withstand reverses, which are likely
to come to any man. He must be
always ready to meet setbacks. 1t
is the careful, prudent way that
makes man master of the situation
the controller instead of the fol-
lower. Judgment must be exer.
cised in saving as we'll as in spend
ing. A mans health has much to
do with his success in lite, and it
behooves him to look we'll after his
bodily condition. Iii health will de-
prlve him of energy, which he must
use to achieve success. 1t depends
on the circumstances whether fail
ures betray incapacity in man. If
failure is due to q cause not gener-
al then it may be attributed to a
lack of foresight and understanding.
A shrewd merchant will not stock
up with unstable goods, and a
shrewd farmer will not plant his
ground to raise improbable crops.
Both the merchant and the farmer
must find out what is most salable
and act accordingly. There are ex-
igencies, to be sure, like contagious,
disaster, combinations, strikes and
financial panics that cannot be tore
seen. The prudent man of business
has prepared himself to stand losses
from such causes, and when the
troubles have passed the fact of his
having weathered them makes his
financial position in a community
stronger than ever.
This is an age of competition, and
itlequires energy and PERCEPTION to
meet it. Many of the most success
full men have started wrong and af-
terward righted themselves. Thers
are many instances where men edu-
Gated for the pulpit have gone to the
bar and have been CONSPICUOUS sue
cesses. Then again, men educated
for the bar have won glory and re-
nown in the pulpit. Close applica-
ton is necessary in every business.
All are free and equal in this coun-
try and every man makes himself
what he will. His mind directs his
course in life. If he has the will

DISCONTINUED FARMERS.

Farmer, when you go to the town
or city and see the dealers of the
shops, busy behind their counters
handing out their wares and COM
modities to their customers, do not
60 home infatuated with the idea
that they are making great profits
and becoming rich in their lines of
business. On hundreds OF articles
sold by these dealers the profits are
hardly worth speaking about.
The competition is immense, and
the struggle for livelihood continual,
as any one can see by looking over
the advertisements of prices in the
newspapers, and then notice the
long list OF bankrupts, and the sacri-
fees Of goods at auction. No, friend
farmer, these city merchants are not
making fortunes as fast as you might
imagine from appearances. Taxes
IN variety, and expenses almost in
Vulnerable, incident to city life, not
known to the country, confront and
harass them. And now to the tiEler
of the soil, who is inclined to be dis
contented with his lot because OF
small gains, we would say fraternal-
ly and encouraglugly: Look around
you and see If there may not be
many ways within your reach by
which you can make them larger.
Here and there about your business
there are leaks and wastes, it may
be, which might be stopped. And
it may be, also, that different modes
of culture might be adopted, and q
greater variety of products grown ;
but cheer up, friends, and keep firm
hold of the pillow handles,-Amerlcan
