Elixir of Youthful Spirits.

LAS I was walking up and down
my room the other day." said man,
wrapped in thought and absorbed
in care, with head lowered and
hands clasped behind me, heard a
tittering, and looking back 1 saw
my children following me, each with
bowed head and clasped hands. They
had tried hard to be very solemn,
but had found it quite impossible.
couldn't help laughing myself when
I saw them, but 1 picked up my bur-
den and marched on. Promptly the
children fell in again and marched
after me. When turned a corner. I
saw them tagging on as before. We
all laughed again, and then the chill
dren and played soldier for awhile.
When we got through with that, 1
found that my serious friend Care

THE PLOWMAN.

| from the Report Of a Flowing Match Com
| mittee in Berkshire, Mass, in 1901
Clear the brown path, to meet his couIter's
gleaml
Lol on he comes, behind his smoking team,
With tolls bright dewdrops on his sunburnt
brow,
The lord of earth, the hero of the plowl
First in the field before the reddening sun.
Last in the shadows when the day n done,
Line after line, along the burning Sod,
Marks the broad acres where his feet have
trod.
still where he treads the stubborn clods di-
vide;
The smooth. fresh furrow opens deepand wide;
Matted and dense the tangled turf upheayes.
Mellow and dark the ridgy cornfield cleaves:'
Up the steep hillside, where the laboring train
Slants the long track that scores the level
plain;
Through the moist valley, clogged with oozing
clay,
The patient convoy breaks its destined way;
AT every turn the loosening chains resound;
The swinging powshare circles glistening
round,
Till the wide field one billowy waste appears.
And wearied hands unbind the painting steers.
These are the hands whose sturdy labor brings
The PEASANTS food, the golden pomp of kings.
This is the page whose letters shall be seen
Changed by the sun to words of living green,
This is the scholar whose immortal pen
Spells the first lesson hunger taught to men.
These are the lines, o heaven commanded Toll
That fill thy deed-the charter Of the soil.
Ogracious mother, whose benignant breast
Wakes us to life and iulls us alto rest,
How thy sweet features, kind to every cline.
Mock with their smile the wrinkled front Of
time!
We stain thy fowers-they blossom DER the
dead;
We rend thy bosom, and it gives us bread.
Ger the red field that trampling strife has
torn
Waves the green plumage of thy tasseled corn
our maddening conflicts scar thy fairest plain
Still thy soft answer is the growing grain.
Yet, our mother, while uncounted charms
Round the fresh clasp of thine embracing
arms,
Let not our virtues in thy love decay
And thy fond weakness waste our strength
away.
No! by these hills, whose banners now dis
played,
In blazing cohorts autumn has aYrayed.
BY yon twin crest amid the sinking sphere
Last to dissolve and first to reappear;
By these fair plains the mountain circle
screens
And feeds in silence from its dark ravines.
True to their home these faithful arms shall
toll
To crown with peace their untainted soil,
And true to God, to freedom, to mankind.
If her chained bandogs faction shall unbind
These stately forms, that bending even now.
Bowed their strong manhood to the humble
pillow,
Shall rise erect, the guardians of the land.
The same stern iron in the same right hand.
TIL Graylock thunders to tn parting sun,
The sword has rescued M-,-. the plowshare
won.

Speaking of street conversations,
isn't it awfully embarrassing to have
some fellow meet you cordially, call
you by name and slap you on the
shoulder, perhaps, while you are try
ing in vain to recall his name? He
says he is well and asks you how you
are, and then refers indefinitely to
some incident of which for the min
ute you are totally ignorant. Then
he laughs and looks hurt because
you do not follow suit, giving a
dazed sort of idiotic look instead.
Finally he says: "Well, so long,
old fellow" and when ne gets if
teen or twenty feet away you sud
denly remember that you met him
one evening winter before last and
that his name is Smith.

A wild HAIR

A wild hair" is the most annoy
ing freak of nature man can be
afflicted with. 1t grows in from the
eyelid, instead of out, and constantly
brushing against the eyeball some
times causes an irritation that re-
suits in loss of sight. To pull it
out gives only temporary relief, since
in fewweeks it comes back, as well
grown and strong as ever. The only
way to kill it is to destroy the sac
from which it springs. This is done
by means of the electric needle

A WILD GuOsE STORY.

Il had an experience with TIld
geese in California, and it is Sc big
that few, except those who are ia
miliar with them, can readily be-
lieve it," said State Senator Dare to
a San Francisco Examiner reporter.
II own a ranch of $4,000 acres at
Knights Landing, on the Sacra-
mento-Yolo rancho. | raise a
great deal of wheat and every year
as soon as the wheat comes the
country Is overrun with geese. |
have seen 1roves of them two or
three miles long, and so thick that
when you shoot into them With a
ride you are bound to hit some of
them. They are so plentiful. that
am obliged to hire herders to keep
them of. They settle down in great
bands. A band will settle down on
five acres, say, and you wont hear a
quack or squawk, but the geese are
there and very industrious, and be
fore you know it they have pulled
up and eaten every bit of the grain.
They have skillful wav of grasp
ing the tender shoots in their mouths
and pulling and relaxing and pull
ing again until they get the swollen
grains with the blades and then eat
the whole. A storm is almost sure
to bring them in large numbers, but
they often come in entirely fair
weather. | keep many herders to
drive them away. If it were not
for this wouldn't have any wheat.
The men are armed with loud sound
ing Winchesters, and they keep
shooting among them all the time.
At night the geese don't bother,
but early in the morning and all
through the day they literally swarm.
The herdersl go out very early in
the morning and stay out all day.

must be kept going all the. time or
the wheat is gone. When the. men
are blowing they get very close to
the geese. Take fourteen or six>
teen teams, each with a big pillow

along in aSstring. The first one is
a little closer, and so on till the
last one is fifty feet or more nearer

knock them over as he goes by. l

and bowl away and kill one. IN

easily kill them by thousands, and

visitation of the geese at knights

to be small and says; ''All right"
Soon the 900 bushels are gone but
he has nothing to show for it, and he
