n worked Well,

A red-nOSed man, with shabby
clothes. stopped before the row Of
seats under the big weeping willow
near the bridge in the public garden
the other afternoon, says the Boston
Journal. The seats were mostly Oc-
cupied by women and children.
Bending down opposite bright
looking little girl, the red nOSed man
said smilingly:
Il wish l had nickel for you,
little one. You would like ride on
the swan boats, wouldn't you, dear?"
"YeS, sir, replied the child, look
ing up timidly.
al knew you did, my child, and if
only had a nickel you should have
it."
La! hear that old bum talk" ex-
claimed a woman sitting near.
If he ant got a nickel why don't
he shut up and move on" remarked
another woman.
The red-nOSed man pretended not
to hear these remarks, and presently
addressed the little girl again:
you remind me so much of one of
my own little ones at home. If l
only had a nickel you should have it,
my pet"
"Oh, you make me weary" eX-
claimed another woman in disgust.
Here's the nickel for the child.
Now do shut up and get out.
The red-nOSed man reached out his
hand and took the money with an in
jured expression on his hard features.
Madam" he said reproachfully,
"the Lord loves a cheerful giver. So
do /. 1t would hardly be right to
bestow an uncheerful gift on this
innocent lamb; so with your permits

Then the red-nosed man passed
under the bridge. leaving behind him
a chorus of aid you eyers?" and
"NO, | nevers."

FARM AyD GARDEN NOTES.

There is plenty of room for winter
dairving.
4 rough hide is a sign that some
thing Is wrong.
Don't forget to supply green food
for the poultry.
The smaller bantam chicken the
greater its value
Poor hens are not disposed to set,
but fat ones are.
Purchasers are apt to judge OF the
age of an egg by It's appearance.
A teaspoonful OF liquid corbolic
acid added to pint and half OF
water is recommended in cases of
cholera
Pullets should be given a variety
and an abundance of food. There is
no fear of their becoming fat while
developing.
Wipe of all soiled eggs with damp
cloth as soon as gathered, as the stains
can be more readily removed then
than later on.
The money expended for pure bred
male animals is one of the best invest
ments that can be made and gains
compound interest in a short time.
Little chicks will soon die OFF il
allowed to get wet See to it that the
water you give them is so arranged
that they cannot get into it or upset
