The Secret of Success.

The most important secret in success
full fruit-growing is this: The trees
should be fed with as much liberality
and care as the best of all the crops
grown in the fields The demands of
the tree are not only for the fruit, but
for itself, the increased growth of il
taking from the land each year quite as
much of the fertility of the soil as
crop of wheat or corn. OF course, it
will be admitted that only healthtully
growing tree will bear full crop. and
doubtless the reason why trees bear
only alternate years is that the tree
itself takes the first contribution from
the soil, and. this being imperative,
nothing is left for the fruit in the sec
ond year. the crop of the preceding
year. with the increase of the tree. hav-

The Game of Golf.

Golf, the great national game of
Scotland, has become both popular
and fashionable in England, and is
likely soon to be held in high favor
in America, writes John Gilmer
Speed in an illustrated article,
under the title of "The Game of
Golf for Women" in the June
Ladies' Home Journal. Those
who are ignorant of the game be-
yond that it is of Scottish origin,
and who have only the vague idea
of it that "shinney"sticks and balls
and holes are employed in
playing it, usually smile in a
good-natured and superior way
when it is mentioned, just as an
accomplished gourmet would smile
if he were told that haggis was
good to eat. "Good for Scotch
man to eat" the gourmet's smile
would say as plainly as uttered
syllables. And so the ignorant
sportsman would be more apt to
speak of the ancient and royal
game of golf. But in reality there
was never a more fascinating nor
more healthful game invented
than golf,and the sooner it becomes
popular here the better it will
be. In writing about the humors
Of the game Mr.. Gladstone's Par
liamentary adversary, Mr.. Balfour,
has said: "Consider, for instance,
the fact that while the performers
of other games are restricted with
in comparatively narrow limits of
age, golf is out Of relation with no
one Of the seven ages of man. There
is no reason why golf should not be
begun as soon as one can walk, and
continued as long as one can walk

Between Father and Son.

We have a great deal to say in
our literature about the confidence
that should exist between mother
and her daughter, but we ignore
altogether too much the frankness
that should exist between father
and his son, writes Edward w.
Box in "At Home with the Ed
itor" in the June Ladies' Home
Journal. 1t is not right to expect
that our girls shall bear the whole
burden of moral responsibility.
Our boys must be taught that the
world expects uprightness in a
man just as much as it looks for it
in a woman. II the men of today
are protected by an unfair moral
discrimination, that is no reason
why the men Of tomorrow should
be so sheltered. If it is for women
to elevate their conception of the
moral standard for men, it is for
the young men of today to adjust
themselves to that higher measure
ment. A healthy frankness be-
tween the boys of today and their
fathers is the first step. This is
mans part in the aim for social
purity. Women must cease their
blinking at actions in men which
they will not tolerate in
women; men, to whom expe-
rience has come, must unfold to
the younger men. 1t is a favor to
a boy that his feelings shall be
analysed for him by his father
that he be taught that his self-cOn-
troll, or his loss of it, means an as
cent or decent in the social scale.
There is no harm in a father point
ing out these things to his son; the
harm comes when the father |
neglects to do so. A young man
should never be expected in any
point of morality to experience |
what his father can explain and
warn him against.

LOVES PATH.

In the golden autumn weather.
Once d couple walked together:
And where woodland boughs were burn
ing,
Crimson dyed they homeward turning,
Sauntered where the village lay,
By the least frequented way.
And the path their steps had taken
Save by them seemed quite fOrsaken:
Only her light daughters riot,
His low tones disturbed the quiet,
Where the blithe birds carOlItd gay
Down the least freQuented way.
Autumn tinted leaves were flushing,
Brighter still her cheeks were blushing.
As she paced beside her lover,
And the breeze around, above her.
Kissed her curtis sweet diSarray
On the least frequented way.
Happy lover, happy maiden,
Life for yon with joy is laden:
1--WE, whom age assailS, may borrow
Past delight TO vanquish SORROW"
While in memory we stray

He is a Beauty Indeed,

What a lovely creature is this
brook trout. Stouter than most
chars, he is still 1.-the and very
muscular. The water and the soil
about him vary his color, but in
the dullest millpond he is not ug-
ly. In bright, cold water, with
clean bottom, how he CLEANS, be
he the lingering of a romantic
stream in his first nuptial gar
ment or the six-pounder of Nipi-
gon reach. From his olive back,
vermiculated like the damas-
cening Of an old sword blade, and
his spotted side to his ruddy belly
and fins, barred with gold and
black, he is perfectly beautiful.
Beautiful indeed are all his
haunts. In mountains and in
lowlands, in rushing rivers and in
quiet lakes, where the springs gush
out beneath the roots Of the ever
greens, or where the salt-tide forces
back the flowing streams, he is ever
the same lover Of clear, cold water,
Not even hunger will take him
where it is foul or warm. 1t has
been my luck to know this fine fish
in many brooks and streams and
in many large waters, from the
Bay of Hearts and the Saguenay
to that great river whose rapids
were Niagara's training school, and
everywhere he has led me to pic
