DAILY DRILL.

This drill, used regularly, will be
found of advantage in giving grace and
freedom to the movements of the body,
and a better command of the muscles
most needed in everyday work and
play. In order to learn them correctly
the exercises should be taken slowly at
first. When learned, fifteen minutes
per day is all that is needed for a
drill" Each motion is made a certain
number of times, usually from four to
eight, and should be done vigorously
and steadily,
Begin by assuming the "correct posi-
tion," which must be rigidly maintained
during the drill, only excepting those
parts of the body in action.
Toes at right angles; heels together,
with weight upon balls of feet; legs
stiff; abdomen well back; chest out
shoulders back and down; arms stiff at
sides; chm slightly In; slight forward

The Value OF Set of Farm Scales.

Most farmers realize to certain ex-
tent the value of set of farm scales
But few men seem to think the value
equal to their original cost. In many
instances they have more than paid for
themselves the first year.
A farmer in Illinois sold seventy hogs
to shipper. Before delivering they
were weighed upon the farmers scales
When weighed upon the buyers scales
there was a discrepancy of over 1900
pounds After investigation it was
found I,ooo-pound weight had not been
counted, which would have amounted te
5000 lat $685. per ewt., the selling
price), and would have been lost but for
the previous weighing.
Another farmer sold five cows TO a
local butcher at 3 cents per pound
guessing their average weight to be 9oo
pounds When delivering them a
neighbor induced him to weigh them on
his scales. Their average weight was
found to be 1890 pounds, loss of &c
pounds 10 each COW, or loss of Sos
upon the whole number.
Guesswork IL poor business at best
Competition has placed the price OF
scales within the reach of the average
farmer, and it is his privilege to take ad.
vantage of it.

out OF Arcadia.

The country boy was In love and young,
And he urged his cause with an eager tongue
But the maiden babe him work and wait;
She wanted a man who was strong and great
He loved his home and the country life,
And he wanted a tender little wife;
He wished to live in peace and ease,
In the shade Of his spreading old elm trees.
But the maiden babe him go and win
name she could prize and glory in.
She said ahe would walt and wed him when
He had made his place In the ranks Of men.
Then the boy plunged into the city's roar,
And he learned the markets sordid lore,
And he learned that life is an awful fight,
Whore the wounded fall to the left and right
But on their bodies he slowly rose,
And he gained new strength from his van
pushed foes;
As he overcame them and beat them down,
He grew In wealth and wide renown.
But his heart was cold He forgot to feel:
His chilling smile had the glow of steel.
His brain grew keen and his face grew hard
As he stood a victor scanned and SCARED.
Then his words were treasured throughout
the state,
And all men followed and called him great;
But he smiled when he thought of the coun-
try boy
And he Sneered at love as childish toy.

and the next thing she knew was lying
in a drug store, with her head against
the shoulder of a very handsome man
andan other one bathing her face.
She looked up startled and met pair
of bright black eyes, whose glance sent
the blood all quiverihg through the fac

Dora jumped up quickly and asked
what the matter was in so natural a
voice that the gentleman Immediately
answered.:
"Nothing."
But even as he spoke, Dora turned
pale and sank back in her seat. The ex-
element and fright had been too great
for her nerves, and Clarence Butler-foE
his horse It was that had done the mis-.
chief-inslsted on carrying her home in
his sleigh.
Somehow 1t made him feel queer tc
tuck that delicate little blue-eyed CIR
under his Lapiand robe, and ride along
with her so still and swift. Then he
had to help her into the house and give
an explanation to her frightened mother
and, of course, 1t was no more thar
courteous for him to leave his card thu
next day; but Dora opened the doc
herself, dressed to go out, and Clarence
begged permission to drive her.
After brief hesitation Dora accepted
and drew up at the corner of her frs

Clarence noted how many admirini
chances were cast on the sweet, fresl
face beside him, and he enjoyed 1t 81

Kindness to Cows.

The long demonstration of the COW and
the large demand made upon her has in
some cases directed almost her entire
vitality into the production Of milk as II
for her progeny. Cows selected especi-
ally for the dairy are of this kind, and
they must have cultivated along with
this unselfish giving of themselves for
others a habit of kindness amounting al
most to love for those for whom they
live. This would be directly expressed
to their own offspring and would be re-
ciprocated were not the kindness of the
COW by artificial means directed into the
channel of supporting the human mixer,
instead of her own progeny, hence, the
best dairy cows are of a kindly DISPOSE
ton and express their kindaess in their
constant effort to supply the demand
made upon them. This naturally ex-
poets and deserves reciprocation on the
part of those who are benefited by her
unselfish life.
The dalryman who has the proper
love for his cows will think nothing too
much trouble that he can do for the
comfort of his cows. And happily in
this case as in all others. 1t pays to be
kind, for cows have brains, and kindly
emotions, If properly cultivated.
Herein may be found the apparent
hidden cause why one mixer can get
more milk and more butter from the
same COW than others can, and that the
one who gets the most milk and butter
Is not always the best mixer when
judged by his skill; but he is neverthe-
less the best mixer for that COW, because
she Hikes him the best his touch and
manner have In them kindness which
puts her in a humor to give him all her
milk and to give It in the best possible
condition.-Farm.
