Anoka, but when the measure reached
the senate an effort was made to tack
on an 500, 600 amendment. This met
with little favor. and as the chairman
and several others of the finance COM
mittee, who had espoused the cause Of
Anoka. were pledged to the bill as it
stood, the amendment simply occupied
= little time before it was overwhelm-
ingly defeated. The only other con-
test on the appropriation bill worthy
of the name, was an effort to raise the
appropriation for the normal school at
Duluth from $1,000 to $4,000. This
went down with 81 yeas to 81 nays.
Senator Howard endeavored to cut
down the appropriation for publishing
the laws in the newspapers to $25. 600,
but on the standing vote he only mus
tered II, and when he had it excepted
from the committee of the whole re-
port and got roll call there were
only votes on his side.
I The senate committee en- taxes re-

this, Mr.. jacobson revived in the house
a bill of his, providing similar tax on
iron ore without any of the extraneous
matter which the Reeves bill has. 1t

PLANTING THE TREE.

What do we plant when we plant the tree!
We plant the ship, which will cross the
sea.
We plant the mast to carry the sails,
We plant the plank to Withstand the
gales.
The keel, the keelson and beam and knee;
We plant the ship when we plant the
tree.
What do we plant when we plant the
treea
We plant the houses for you and me-
We plant the rafters, the shingles, the
floors,
We plant the studding, the lath, the
doors,
The beams, the siding, all parts that be;
We plant the house when we plant the
tree.
What do we plant when we plant the
tree9
A thousand things that we daily see.
We plant the spire that out-towers the
crag,
We plant the staff for our country's flag,
We plant the shade, from the hot sun
free;
We plant all these when we plant the
tree. Henry Abbey.

is TT WORTH THE wHILEs

"Pshaw: do not care whether they
like me or notw was what young girl
said, partly to herself aud partly. to her
friend, as group of girls passed by with
only careless mods.
And yet it was this very apparent feel
ing of indifference. this unconcerned
manner. which had caused the half dis
like and the avoidance on the part Of
the other girls.
In all social life it is the cheerful girl
not necessarily the gay one-wbo has
pleasant word. kindly smile. or mo-
ment to spare for each, who is the most
liked and the most popular.
"a good listener is always in demand"
says some one. Why? Simply because
good listener is one who is willing to
listen with apparent and kindly interest
to the words of her companion.
Sympathy on any matter is the bond
which will unite many otherwise uncon-
genial natures. Shakespeare said. How
much better it is to weep at Joy than to
Joy at weeping"
"Well," says the indifferent girl again.
with weary tone to her voice, what is
the use of trying to make 80 many peo.
pie like you by appearing to take an in
terest in themY Is it worth while to try
to make people like me?"
Let US consider a moment.
Ero,,, x,ooraI ord unoal6ab stand
point, you will concede that the golden
rule should be employed in this, as we'll
as other instances, and since you would
like others to consider your interests
and pleasures on all occasions, you
ought to do likewise unto them.
From selfish standpoint, it is to your
advantage to have as many people as
possible like you. You cannot tell when
passing complimentary word from some
one will carry q good impression to an
other and bring you untold benefit.
Influence counts for much in this
world, and even if you think that some
people have no special influence or pow
or to ever aid you, it is still better to
have their good will than their i'll will.
Once more, from a sympathetic stand
point. you should try to please everyone.
Into most of our lives more rain than
sunshine comes, more darkness than
brightness; and if. by little effort on
our part, even though it must be forced,
sometimes. by reason of our sad or de-
iected feelings. we can send one little ray
of light across another's path. it is we'll
worth the Presbyterian RevieaU.

And so Harry had to sophisticated.

A reporter recently called at this ia

Prof. Barnaby was in delicate health,

Two Discoveries.

When Sir Humphrey Davy was boy
about sixteen, little girl came to him
in great excitement.
Humphrey, do tell me why these two
pieces OF cane make tiny spark of light
when rub them together"
Humphrey was a studious boy who
spent hours in thinking out scientific
problems. He patted the child's curly
head and said:
II do not know, dear. Let US see if
they really do make light. and then we
will try to find out why"
Humphrey soon found that the little
girl was right; the pieces of cane. il rub
bed together quickly, did give tiny
light. Then he set to work to find out
the reason; and after some time thanks
to the observing powers Of his little
friend, and his own kindness to her in
not impatiently telling her not to
worry" as 80 many might have done
Humphrey Davy made the first of his
interesting discoveries. Every reed,
cane and grass has an outer skin Of
finty stuff, which protects the inside
from insects, and also helps the frail-
looking leaves to stand upright.
Talking about the children helping
the discoveries reminds US Of another
pretty tale In 1867 some children were
playing near the Orange river in Africa.
They picked up stone which they
thought was only very pretty pebble,
far prettier than any they had found be-
fore. A neighbor, seeing the stone, Of
fered to buy it for mere trifle. He. in
his turn, sold it to some one else; and 80
the pebble changed hands. till at last it
reached the governor Of the colony, who
paid $1,000 for it. This stone which the
children had found was the first of the
African diamonds.

HIGH TEA.
BY TUDOR jerks.

When Dorothy and took tea, we sat upon
the floor;
No matter how much tea l drank, she al
ways gave me more.
Our table was the scarlet box in which her
tea set came,
Our guests, an armless, one-eyed doll,
wooden horse gone lame.
She poured out nothing, very fast-the
teapot tipped on high
And in the bowl found sugar Jumps I'M
seen by my dull eye.
She added rich (pretended) cream; it
seemed wilful waste,
For though she overlooked the cup, it did
not change the taste.
She asked, Take milkl'' or sugar." and

She put them in, and told me that I must
take it so!

Though often | upset my cup, she only

She tasted my cup gingerly for fear I'd
burn my tongue;
Indeed she really hurt my pride-she
made me feel so young.
j must have drunk some twoscore cups,
and Dorothy sixteen,
Allowing only needful time to pour them
in between.
We stirred with massive pewter spoons,
and slipped in courtly ease,
With all the ceremony of the stately
Japanese
AT length she put the cups away, GOOD
night, papa she said;
And l went to real tea, and Dorothy to

shore, not farfrom the foot OF Bunker
Tor Breeds) Hill in Charlestown-
also a peninsula. They passed 80
near to British man-o'-war lying at
anchor in the stream that they could
hear the rigging rattle as the great
vessel rocked on the slow waves, and
could hear the voices of the watch on
deck But the boat reached the
shore without being discovered; and
a young man who had sat in the bow,
silent and watchful, sprang out
promptly. He was Paul Revere-fa-
milar to most American readers as
the man who warned the people OF
the road to Lexington of the approach
of the British troops. His friends in
Charlestown had seen two lights in
the belfry of the Old North Church
in Boston, which was the signal
agreed upon to show that the British
were crossing the river to Cambridge.
Deacon Larkin's black horse was
ready for the messenger of warning,
and in few minutes Paul Revere
was riding along the road on the
southwest side of the Charlestown
hills to the Neck. Here he took the
left hand road, leading through
Cambridge; but the British had al
ready landed. Only short distance
along this road grew some great
shady trees; and out from their shad-
ow two armed redcoats spurred on
their horses to meet Revere. Back
on his course quickly turned the
young patriot, closely followed by his
foes. The swiftest one. to shorten
the distance, attempted to ride across
a space from which clay had been
dug out for brick makin0. The wat
er of the melting SHOWS and ice had
soaked the clay, making deep mire.
at generally believed that Paul Revere
personally warned Concord, notion de-
rived from Longfellow's poem, paul Re-
yere's Ride" wherein is some poetic
license The authorities for the present
story are Revere and Dawes themselves.
Revere's account of the ride is given in a
communication from him to the Massa-
chusetts Historical Society in 1913.
