ALWAYS A RIVER TO CROSS.

There's always a river to cross,
Always ane fort to make
If there's anything good to win,
Any rich prizes to take.
Yonder's the fruit we crave,
Yonder the charming scene;
But deep and wide with troubled tide
Is the river that lies between.
For the treasures of precious worth
We must patiently dig and dive;
For the places we long to fill
We must push and struggle and strive,
And always and everywhere
Well find in our onward course
Thorns for the feet and trials to meet,
And difficult river 10 cross.
The rougher the way that we take,
The stouter the heart and nerve;
The stones in our path we break,
Nor eer from our impulse swerYe,
For the glory we hope to win
Our labors we count no loss
'Tis folly to pause and murmur because
Of the river we have to cross.
So, ready to do and dare,
Should we in our places stand,
Fulfilling the Masters will,
Fulfilling the souls demand.
For though as the mountain high
The pillows may rear and toss,
They'll not overwhelm if the Lords at I'll
helm
When the difficult river we cross.

Flowing TurnipS.

1t is nearly time for putting in the tur-
nip seed. Use only the new crop seed,
and use it literally as the fly is very de-
structive to the young plants. Keep the
land intended for turnips well cultivated
so as to destroy as many weeds as possible
before seeding. If manure is spread on
the ground now harrow it in and IL us per-
nit any seed in it to terminate in order
that they may be destroyed.

Coarse Fertilizers.

There is serious danger of positive in
jury from using coarse manure in the hill
with any kind Of crop late in the season
Under the plant there is no opportunity to
stir the manure and soil with cultivator
and often the first roots that start off are
withered and dried up by mid summer I'm.
less the season is unusually wet This is
the reason why many wholly fail in grow
ing cucumbers. These are necessarily
planted late to escape frost, and therefore
the manure is less moistened by spring
rains than it is for crops planted earlier.

Keeping And Feeding Sheep.

Sheep that have been shut up to be fat
tened do not require exercise any more;
they are supposed to have made their
muscle, and now they are to develop fat,
which requires rest. To this end they
should not only be kept clean butabsolute-
~ dry. There is NJ other sure method
of keeking them free from catarrh and
snuffies, and no sheep can fatten with It's
nostrils half stopped with disgusting &C
cumulations of mucus. 1t needs all the air
it can obtain by the deepest and fullest
inhaletions to oxygenate and assimilate

The Calf and Milking

To let the calf suck the first part of a
milking, and take what it leaves for the
house, Is not politeness, but rather shrewd-
ness and economy. The calf gets the milk
that contains less of cream but greater
proportion of casein, which is the real
nourishment in milk. The latter part OF
the milking contains most of the cream,
which in turn is best for the butter maker
Hence both parties to the transaction are
benefited.

ger, older, ba1der-head-

point What is it for?" we con-
tinually cry from the cradle to the
grave. So with this little introduc-
tory sermonwe turn and ask: What
is AUGUST FLOWER FOR ?" AS easily
answered as asked: 1t is for Dys-
pepsia. 1t is a special remedy for
the Stomach and Liver. Nothing
more than this; but this brimfu1.
We believe August Flower cures
Dyspepsia. We know it will. We
have reasons for knowing it. Twenty
years ago it started in "a small country
town. To-day it has an honored
place In every city and country store,
possesses one of the largest manu-
featuring plants in the country and
sells everywhere. Why is this? The
reason is as simple as a child's
thought. 1t is honest, does one
thing, and does it right along-it

The bravest man Of all is he who dares
to do right.
Efforts made to be permanently useful
must be uniformly Joyous.
1t will avail US nothing to know. if we
live not according to our knowledge
Carlyle.
The virtue of man ought to be measur-
ed, not by extraordinary exertions, but by
his everyday conduct.
Men may judge US by the success of our
efforts; God looks at the efforts them
selves.
Our daily life should be sanctifed by
doing common things in religious way
There is no action so slight or so humble
but it may be done to a great purpose and
ennobled thereby.
To act with common sense, according to
the moment, is the best wisdom l know,
and the best philosophy to do ones duties,
take the world as it comes, submit respect
fully to ones lot, bless the goodness that
has given us so much happiness with it
whatever it is, and despise affectation.-

The purest love disclose,
As fragrant atoms in the air
Reveal the hidden rose

mistake when you stated that ga de-

we as a church here had the honor

campaiz n, delivered at Elmira, made
the following high-toned remarks :;
81 have one purpose, and that is
that this shall be absolutely and
purely a campaign of education and
organization. No personal detrac-
ton, no personal abuse, no holding
up the light Of false issues and no
federation of falsehoods and mis-
representations. This campaign is a
campaign for the illustration of
measures, not the discussion of
men," These are noble sentiments
that should form general rule in po-
lit,cal campaigns. There are of
course exceptions where it is a pub
lie duty to discuss the personality of
men, testing them by their political
record and examining their claims to
be representative opponents of par
ticular measures.

NJ. dc Freycinet, President of the
Council and Minister of War, in a
speech to the generals taking part in
the French army maneuvers, avowed
the peaceful tendencies of France.
He said the leading idea of the
maneuvers was to throw light on,
and give exercise IN, The duties of
Commander-in-Chief, and added:
Nobody now doubts we are strong,
or that we shall prove to be wise.
We know how to maintain that calm
ness and dignity in the days of mis-
fortune, which have paved the way
to recuperation." This would be
reassuring if the Minister could
count on the maintenance of calmness
and dignity by the press and popu.
lace of Paris. The episode of the
Empress Frederick's visit to the
French metropolis few months ago
was neither calm nor dignified, and
nearly precipitated breach of the
peace of Europe.

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 80, 1891.

A new secret order has appeared
in Missouri called the knights of
Reciprocity" They were first said
to be Blaine boomers, but their
leaders declare this is not the fact.
However, the fact that the meeting
of the Grand Lodge at Kansas City
attracted many prominent Republl
cans, who contributed speeches at a
public meeting under the auspices of
the order, would indicate the society
to be political and of the Republican
stripe.
