than half an hour. In stewing cal ned

Wherein an Education Pays.

To be the most successful farmer q
man should be we'll posted and well
educated. There are few branches of
knowledge from which he can not
draw in everyday life: In the natural
sciences the graduate of the highest
institutions of learning in the land will
find in the ordinary work of the farm
Il postgraduate course which will be
more practical and thorough than that
prescribed in the curriculum of any
of our schools. The introduction
to line of study in this
direction given at our schools
can be carried on indefinitely and to
decided advantage. a knowledge of
entomology will assist the farmer in
determining among the insects which
surround him his friends and his
enemies, and being able to protect the
one and destroy the other may be of
great value. The same is true in re-
gard to birds. beasts and reptiles. 1t
is along this line that an educa ton may
be put to Il practical use. Intelligent
effort is always NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

a quick growth and an early maturity

A biblical Phrase.

In many of the grandest of Scriptural
phr asses there is not little suggestion
of the sinpl lefty of childhood. and on
the other hand it not infrequently hap
pens that some childish speech reminds
one of the utterances of the prophets
of old.
An instance of this was given not
long ago by lad of FIVE or six sum-
mers. He had probably never heard
the Biblical sentence wherein it is said
of Jehovah that He bowed the heav-

much the same spirit th-t he asked his

down when God stands up?"

are weird1y interesting. They are long
and broad and scrawny. Some Oh them
look as though they had been hooked on
the chin with snap catch Others roll
down greasy vests and come to sorrei
point at the knees Then there are
boards that start from the eyes ana roll
in pillows to the collarless shirt, where
they are tucked behind the linen and
made to seswe the purpose OF undercotn-
ing. Some of these boards are tied IN
knots. Others are braided and left to
hang like the Handicapped tresses OF
an Indian girl Then there are ding
dongs, midways, daubers, lam brequlns,
bijous, Guthries, Virginia creepers and
rough and ready smilax. Some OF tnese
Populists sprout their boards beneaJn
their chins to such length that the

The general commentator which Sen
ator Voorhees, bill to allow the national
banks to issue circulating notes to the
amount of the par value of their bonds
has met with in all parts of the country
shows that the prejudice against these
institutions has to a large extent died
| out. 1t was not many years ago that
the principal stock in trade of political
party which was big enough for time
to swallow the Democratic party In this
State and that actually did swallow it,
consisted principally of denunciatlon OF
national banks. To the Green hackers
national bank president was a public
enemy, and no Greenba back orator consld-
cred that he had done his full duty to the
people until he had denounced the officers
of these institutions in the most scath-
ing language his tongue could command.
This sentiment was partly the offspring
of ignorance of what bank really was
and partly the offspring of pure dema-
gogism. 1t is not entirely extinguished
yet. The Populists still shout for the
abolition of all the banks land want all

people, but most of the thinking people
of the country have come to the conclu-
sion that a bank is necessity in bust
ness community, and that the present
national bank is the best institution of
the sort which the country has ever had,
During the present crisis the banks
have done very much to relieve the strin-
gency, of money, and to help business
men ont of difficulties. If when the
present period of depression began all the
money had been in the pockets of the
people, the country would have had a
much worse time than it has experienced.
1t is the locking up of money in the
pockets of the people that is doing a good
deal of the mischief If the people could
be induced to put the money which is
in their pockets into the banks there
would be very little complaint of search
ty of money Money is scarce simply
because it's circulation is arrested !.
With that restored it will be plenty
enough. The country never had SO much
money as now. T-13
