THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.

Not fancy, merely or the rush
OF feeling, guides the pen or brush,
AS tint by tint, and line by line,
The verses grow, the colors shine!
We ind with these the browning art,
Whose magic Gun alone impart
To genius all it's highest gains
The faculty of taking pains.
Lo, for the joy OF years to be,
Destined for Immortality,
Wehail the statues marble grace,
The loneliness Of form and face.
Nor dream what hours the sculptor wrought
With tireless hand and anxious thought
TIL from the stone, with stroke on stroke
The unveiled beauty stirred and woke
The rapt musician, whose sweet strain
Bids vanquished sorrow smile again,
Threw his whole soul, the while he wrote,
Into each heaven aspiring note,
Pausing thousand times before
His Judgment passed the perfect score;
For, holding meaner work In scorn,
He toiled for ages yet unborn.
They learn the secret of success,
Who seek-content with nothing less
Perfection, with no aim beside,
And, missing this, dissatisfied,
And they alone In lifes BRIEF day,
TO fame and honor win their way 5
Who first achieve, for such high gains,
The strenuous art of taking pains.

Ignorance In Mexico,

Says an American business man who
has been living in Mexico: what
Mexico most needs Is education. The
ignorance Of the poems is astonishing.
II the great churches Of America, which
are yearly sending millions Of dollars
to China and Africa to educate the
heather there, would devote fair pro.
portion Of that money to Mexico far
more good would be accomplished. The
money would be better spent and re-
suits more apparent. The few mis-
sionaries in that country are doing
good, but their number is not suf-
fcient. Then less theology and more
liberal education should be taught,
scctarianism should not interfere With
the work. Strange as it may seem, the
English tongue has displaced the
French as a foreign tongue, and is rap
idly being learned by the younger ma

THE FARMING WORLD.
HOMEMADE STACKER.

clever Device Invented by an Ingenious
Illinois Farmer.
Mr.. H. P. Edmunds, Of Illinois, has
devised homemade hay stacker, an
Illustration Of which is given herewith.
The frame is madeof two poles or
timbers about 40 feet long. This is
long enough to build stacks IS to 30
feet high. Use poles Of light wood to
avoid unnecessary weight in handling;
poplar does well. IL suitable native
timber cannot be obtained use pine,
splicing two pieces together to secure
the needed length. Use 6x6 timbers
for the lower section and 4x4-inch ma
terial for the upper part. At the top
they are bolted together with single
strong bolt. The cross bar near the
top is about feet long and is bolted
to the posts.
They are set on top of the ground
and supported by long guy ropes
which are at the apex and staked at
l. These stakes must be set so as

It Is surprising how paternal men boz
come when q circus comes to town.
They must get fatherly to become child
dsh. A Pittsburgh Dispatch reporter
saw one man the other day who spent
most Of the forenoon trying to .sbor-
row boy to take to the circus He
confded to me that the circus was one
thing that made the blood thrill In his
veins, but his dignity would not per-
NIT him to attend one without Efficient
excuse. AS he had no children OF his
own he was forced to hunt up somebody
who would loan him child to take to
the show. He said: 'sBut the strang-
est part Of it all is that was unable to
get one. Now, you would imagine
that there would be plenty Of children
around anxious to sec circus, and YOU
would be right; but the supply did not
equal the demand. By actual count I
went to twelve Of my friends who have
growing boys and requested that I
might give the little fellows some
pleasure by taking them. Without a
single exception they thanked me very
much for my kindness, and said they
were going to take them themselves.
Now, would feel foolish going to q
circus without had child with me.
Yet I do not know OF nything I like
better. It brings back the old DAYS
when was in the country, q bare
footed boy following the parade, look-
ing with wonderment at the lone ele-
plant plodding along. Tho smell Of
the sawdust, the cries Of the peanut
and lemonade man are as pleasant to
me- as the new mown hay and singing
birds. They are the chemicals which
develop the unseen image which is
upon the plate Of memory, and It comes
forth in oil its glory. But I missed
this all, for, thanks to the same feel
ing in the hearts Of my father friends,
all the available excuses were taken
up. Go myself? What do you take me
for? Do you think ! would allow any,
one to think I would enjoy such thing
as q circus? Never"

Genuine Turkish Soap.

In q shop window was recently dis
played quantity of dull gray blocks,
stamped with the sultan's seal. They
looked old and musty, and as if chill
dren had played house with them. A
man who was passing sped the heap
and exclaimed: "Oh, that is the famous
olive soap made in Turkey!' and he at
once darted into the shop and made a
liberal purchase. "Do you know" he
said a few minutes later, there's only
one better soap in the world, it is used
throughout the orient by the best
people, and the sultan never allows it
to leave the country. You cannot i'm.
port it for love or money. This is the
second quality, but it is very fine. y
And tucking the package under his
arm the gentleman walked away,

the straight line connecting them will
run lengthwise through the center of
the site for the stack. The load of
hay is then driven along the end, as
shown in the Illustration, and the fork
loaded. The rope for drawing up the
loaded fork is tied to the cross beam,
passed through the pulley on the
fork. through pulley on the cross
beam and extending down to the
ground on one side Of the stack and
toward the opposite end of it
Ito avoid too much of side
draft, passing through pulley 2 as
shown. After the fork is set the
load is drawn up by horse OF team
hitched to the rope which runs through
the pulley 2. The poles remain in
position shown at A until the load
strikes the cross-beam, when the draft
brings them over to the position B.
The load is then Immediately over the
stack, and is dropped upon it. When
the load is off, the poles are easily
tipped and in drawing back the fork
the man in the wagon usually pulls
them back to the position shown at
A, or If they are not thus pulled back
they will come INTO position when the
team is started to draw up the next
load. This is very cheap and easily
constructed device for stacking hay
and can be used where hay is hauled
on wagons, hay sleds or shocks. The
length of stack, which will be made at
q single setting, can be varied to suit
the builder. Quite common method
is to put up convenient length and
simply move the stacker on far enough
to build another section to the first,
and so on, making q long rick. This
method also saves time in moving, as
the poles do not have to be taken
down, being simply stepped along
to the new position. The guy ropes
must be quite long, varying somewhat
with the length of the stack. Prairie

The enormous strength of the condor

boldness. This immense bird often
pounces upon small animals, but, from

heavy, SO he contents himself with
