With the combination of thrift,
industry, and economy, those

ripen. Last year three hundred

Alphabet on a Pin Head.

Frank j. Mollenhauer is per-
haps the most export engraver In
New York, if not In the world,
says the New York World. In
delicacy of touch and skill in
handling delicate instruments his
work is something marvellous. His
latest achievement was to en-
grave the twenty-six letters of
the alphabet on the head of pin.
Under a magnifying glass the
letters are clear and distinct, and
each is as perfect as any ever en-
graved for a visiting card or we'd
ding invitation. But with the
naked eye the minute letters are
merely scratches, which have no
discernible form. Mollenhauer's
work was the result of an attempt
to beat the work of man who
had engraved the Lords prayer
on Scent piece, and experts
assert that in this he has sue
ceeded.

What Boys Are For.

Some time ago gentleman, in
addressing company of boys,
said:
"Can any one of you tell me
what boy is good for?'
One Of them held up his hand,
and began to snap his fingers.
Said the speaker, "What is it?"
The boy replied, "a boy is a
good thing to make man out
Of"
"Yes, it is TREMENDOUS good
thing" was the response of the
man.
This question and its answer
have put us to thinking. If a
boy is good thing to make a
man out of, the proper question
is, What kind of a man? That
will depend on the influences
which surround that boy and the
training he has. If influences
are bad, then there will be
necessary, careful training to
counteract the bad.
The boy does not understand
the danger with which he is be-
set. He does not understand the
pitfalls which are in his pathway.
He must. therefore, be warned
Of his danger when he is boy.
and be taught to oe mana
roval man. He must have the
education thus afforded. and
more in the higher Christian
schools if possible.
If boys are to develop into
good men, they must be wisely
trained for nobility and worth in
our churches and homes. They
must have the right kind OF cul-
ture-heart, mind and body-to
make out of them the right kind
of men.

good recommendations included there
in, we concluded to to give it a trial.
