that vigor to their progeny which will

Plants, human beings and animals
need sunlight, fresh air and exercise to
keep them in proper health; il denied,
weakness follows. here is tendency
to coddle our cows too much, to blanket
them and to heat their stables, and even
to lettering them while at pasture.
Much of this is mistake, and is not
called for, even for the high ends for
which we aim.
Fall calves subsist largely upon milk,
and take but little room in the shed:
and there is more time in the winter to
give them attention. They will be ready
for the spring pastures. and make good
progress from the start, and enter the
barn in the fall again to get full benefit
OF solid rations there provided for them.
Spring calves are incapable of receiv.

Skinned milk contains all the ele-

probably, is fax seed, which should be

WHY?

If only a single rose is left,
Why should the summer pine?
A blade of grass in rocky cleft;
A single star to shine.
Why should sorrow If all be lost'
If only thou art mine!
If only single bluebell CLEANS
Bright on the barren heath,
Still of that flower the summer Dreams
Not of his August wreath.
Why should sorrow If thou art mine
Love, beyond change and death?
If on y once on wintry day
The sun shines forth In the blue,
He gladdens the groves till they laugh
as in May
And dream of the touch of the dew.
Why should sorrow If all be false'
If only thou art true!

PURPOSE.

Two things are absolutely essential to
every true life: one is to have an aim
and the other is to have high aim
Some purpose, some aim usually fixes
itself in a child's heart early in life.
This aim may often be only a childish
fancy which may again and again be
changed and replaced; but whenever a
worthy and high purpose fixes itself in
the mind of boy or girl, when that
purpose is cherished and followed, it

WHAT CAME OF 1T.

WHAT a queer ring, Uncle
w Harry The stones so round
that it looks almost like button.
Where did you get it," asked Polly,
rubbing her soft cheek against her
uncle's, as she sat on the arm of his
chair.
"My loveress gave it to me years
ago." he answered, looking, with a
twinkle in his eyes, over to where
Aunt Nell sat with baby on her lap.
cts such an odd one! I never
saw any like it before" said Polly,
lifting his hand to examine the ring
more closely.
"No wonderw Aunt Nell said; "for
it is probably several hundred years
old. l got it in Rome years ago, at
the shop of an old antiquary. l had
promised boy whom [ left at home
in college that, if he would be good
and mind his lessons, would bring
him something nice; and, when l saw
that ring, 1 thought it would please
him, and it did"
"But how did Uncle Harry get it,
then?" asked Polly, looking puzzled.
"Why, you see, he happened to be
the boy" Aunt Nell answered, laugh
ing.
"No, Miss Polly, am not going to
let you take it off," said her uncle, as
Polly made the attempt. "You might
drop it, and step on it; and then my
heart would be broken entirely as
Nora says"
81 don't wonder you think lots of it
if it's all that DID," said Polly, look
ing at the quaint old ring with new
respect.
81 certainly do think lots of it,
probably because it is so old-only,"
with a little laugh. Sand now, if
you will kindly allow me to get up,
my small lady, will spend the rest
of my holiday in planting the banks
of Aunt Nell's fountain. I'm going
to the woods for ferns and moss and
water plants; and you may come with
me, if you like"
OF course Polly liked; and few
moments later she was trotting along
by her uncle's side, chatting gayly.
There was nothing that Polly en-
joyed more than visiting her Uncle
Harry and his wife; and now she
was spending long, beautiful month
with them, and enjoying every mo-
ment of it. She was up bright and
early in the morning, and only went
to bed because her brown eyes re-
fused to stay open minute after
eight o'clock at night; and it would
be hard to tell how she spent all the
long, bright hours.
"Have a good time, my darling"
said her mother the night before she
left home. run and play, and be as
happy as you can; but l think that
the best way to make sure of happi-
ness is to try each day to do some
little thing to make some one else
happy, too. If l were you, l should
ask Aunt Nell to tell you of some
thing you could do. She will be sure
to be able to help you"
And so Polly did; and, after think
ing a while, Aunt Nell said:-
Il can think of one thing that
would be real kindness. and would,
1 am sure, bring great pleasure to a
poor sufferer. There is an old, sick
woman living in little cottage down
the road, who has to lie in bed all
day. Now, l am sure that, if you
would take it upon yourself to ar
range a few fresh flowers for her each
morning, she would be more delight
ed than perhaps you can understand.
If will be quite little task; but, il
you really want to do. a great kind
ness, | can think of none that would

GREAT SOCIAL EVENT.
The Coming Greene Entertanment-A Strong
 Array of Talent.

Work is steadily progressing on what promises to prove one of the most mag niflcent social amusement events ever witnessed in Birmingham. The coming entertainment will embrace a burlesque on Pinafore by Birmingham's best tal- ent, augmented by kirmess features, and the lullabies of the nations Plnafore will prove side-splitting. The kirmess feat ures are new and novel and the lullabies of the nation an unique feature that has met with tremendous success in Brook lyn and other large cities The following are the committees on the different branches of the entertainment.
 "Lullabies of the Nations" Miss Sarah Rogan and Miss Augusta Sharpe, and the following well known talent are amongst the soIoists already assigned: Mrs. Sin nige, Misses Alite, Fallon, King.
 Committee on Kirmess Mrs. c. P. Per- rim and Mrs. Bernstein. Miss Lila Smith presides at the piano at the Pinafore re- hearsals and MT. Victor J. Erhart has charge of the entertainment as director. The different tableau vivants will be composed of Birmingham's leading and best known young society people, and while some of the rehearsals have not been as well attended as they could have been, still the reputation and social standing of the different committees is a. guarantee that the work will be pushed to an artistic finish, and prove a phe- nomenal success. A meeting is called for this afternoon at D. m. at the armory of the Jefferson Volunteers of all kirimess dancers, and also of the different com- mittees and others taking an interest in the day nursery movement.
 Pinafore rehearsals tonight at s D. m. Committees and participants are re- queste to report promptly.

 Toledo, O., Oct. 8.-The American board of foreign missions today adopted lengthy resolutions touching the Armenian ques- tion The resolutions say in part:
 Resolved, That we urge respectfully the president of the United States of America to insist upon the issue by the Turkish government of the proper exc quartur, that our consuls may securely occupy, under the flag of our country, the post which our government assigns to them, and in the interest of justice and in accordance with treaty rights admin dster with authority the duties of their office.
 Resolved further That we urge the president of the United States of Amer ica to demand of the Turkish authorities, at once and peremptorily. indemnity for the wrongs inflicted on Americans, reim- bursement for the destruction of their property and the punishment of those persons who have been guilty of these crimes. We believe that the adoption of such an American policy will receive the loyal support of the American people,"
 The board appointed committee, con- sisting of President J. B. Angel of the Michigan university, Rev. W. $. Dodd and Hon. H. G. Halle, to present the res- olutions to President Cleveland
