KEEPING THEM ON THE FARM
BY TOM p. MORGAN.

Il am just casting up my accounts for
the past year and making estimates for
the coming one" said Farmer Tuffkids
to the friend from the city who had
come to spend New Years day. "U'm!
Let me see. Debtor to 50 dogs at rs
cents-some of my own raising and
others bought at wholesale-S66. rs.

DO you contemplate utilizing 50 dogs
during the coming year?" interrupted
the friend, with much interest.
THAT is the number we have made
use of during the past year, replied the
host. During the coming year we shall
probably use great many more. You
see"
m"My goodness" calculated the visit
or, as great clamor broke forth, ap-
parently originating behind the barn.
'What is that?"
"Oh, have given four of the younger
boys hand organ apiece, not two of
which play the same tunes, and when
they all strike up together they make
considerable racket" explained the
farmer. 'But the boys enjoy it, and
that is the main point. guess they
will stop playing pretty soon and go to
fighting over the discord, and then
there will be little less noise. Suppose
we go up to the garret? The billiard
table is up there, along with the poker

Then l shut the book and went to bed
and naturally dreamed of Maud. YoI
sec how far gone was.
The next morning we were all at
breakfast when some one introduced
the subject of Maud's engagement.
"You are the only one to neglect to
congratulate me, Mr.. Butler" she said,
feigning offense.
"But l do congratulate you, Miss
Maud" said, sincerely, "and hope
your engagement may lead to nothing
but happiness for you"
"Oh! 1t will" she said. IF you
knew Mr.. Simpson, you could not doubt
it. He is the kindest man. He is Just

"Indeed l imagined that you did

"The position!" said, amazed.
"What position?"
"Why, as stenogrspher, Of course.
What did you think had" and then
she must have seen through my stupid
blunder, for she blushed.
And as for me, there was no staying
at the same table with Gregory after
that, so went up to my room and tore
up the only resolution had made for

The old year fades into the past
With all its joys altl sorrows,
With all its, barren yesterdays
And all its bright to-morrows;
Some hearts regret it's hasty flight,
Some glacly speed the parting
Which parishes the sad old year,
So joyous at its starting.
We bid the dying year good-by
And turn, with hope reviving,
To greet the New Year coming in
With promises enlivening;
And as we lay aside the past
In gladness or in sorrow,
We reach out to the time TO come
And of the future borrow.
What win the New Year bring to us
Is veal or woe awaiting?
Will fortune smile in kindly way
Or will she need beratng?
Could we but rend the veil of time
And see beyond the present,
What would our longirS eyes behold,
A prospect dark or pleasant?
All, it were well would we but take
The days as they are given,
And make each one stepping stone
To raise us up to Heaven;
Instead we waste the precious hours
In blind and fruitless hoping,
The while We in an aimless way
For sordid gain are cropping.
The coming year will surely bring
Us whatsoever we merit
So if We fail to reap success
We've but to grin and bear it.
For what we SOW that shall we reap,
Such is the law unbendng
Which rules our lives from day to day
beginning unto ending.

ONE THAT WAS BROKEN,
Story Of a New Years Resolution

IoLory OF New xoar9 o H06OluClOns
had known Gregory in the states.
He was an A No. young fellow and we
had worked side by side for three years
ct the same desk in little wholesale
house in Iowa. How Gregory ever hap
pened to leave Canada and find his
way to Iowa is too long and too dull
story to tell, but he did find his way
there, and soon after he arrived we be-
came great chums.
He sang in the choir, made out the
bills of the concern for which we
worked, rode horseback, and had boils.
dof the four occupations, the boils
seemed to interest him most, and no
wonder, for they were with him night
and day.
de used to back up to me and sayi
"Look at my neck, will you, old fellow,
and see If that spot looks like boil?"
Usually it did.
We all used to advise him what to do
'ior them. and he did it. Our desk
drawers were always full Of his tonics
and lotions and salves; and when any
one pulled one Of his special drawers
open an odor like an apothecary shop
escaped.
But all this has nothing to do with
my story.
When Gregory was called back to
Canada he made me promise to visit
MN at Sutton-West some time. Hc
said 1t was the most beautiful spot In
me world, and that It had Q climate

1t kept Gregory busy feeding the
stoves. He would fill up number one,
and then fill number two, and so on,
and by the time he had number 13
stocked he would be ready to load num-
Der one again, and sometimes he would
not be able to get around in time and
the fire in number one would be out
before he had number 10 full of wood.
The front door was completely showed
up, buried behind 20-foot drift, and
Gregory told me it was lucky thing,
for II 1t had not been and anyone should
have opened the front and rear doors
at the same time the lake breeze would
have blown the whole unlucky 10
stoves out of the house and clear down
to Toronto. That lake breeze was what
they called "bracing weather" up there.
Down in Iowa we would have locked
ourselves indoors and said: "What q
fearful blizzard!"
And they seemed to enjoy it. The girl
cousin, Maud Gregory, did not mind it
In the least, and would take her skates
and sail out for little spin on the ice
on days when was wondering whether
we had not better tie the house to the
pine trees to keep It from blowing
away.
But then she was accustomed to it.
She had never been farther south than
Toronto, and frequently spent her win
ters there on Lake Simcoe.
She was q beautiful girl, too. saw
that the first time met her, and saw
It more plainly every day.
By the time had grown little ac-
customed to the beautiful climate we
were quite good friends, and as Greg
ory's carbuncle practically confined
him to the smoking-room, the pleasure
of escorting her on her numerous skat-
ing trips naturally fell to me. And I
did not shirk my duty.
She was an only child, and her father
was clerk in one of the Toronto banks,

And dims afar the last lone star
As on her chariot goes.
