GEO BAYLOR.

"a professor at one Of our unlyersi-
ties, says the Christian at Work, "is
the subject Of queer anecdOte. Last
winter be was married and went to
housekeeping outside Of town. This
spring he thought he would add a few
hens to his stock; he always had a
dog. He set a couple Of hens, and in
good time had two large broOds Of
chickens. he was very proud ofthem,
but in a week or 30 the fowls began
to die. The professor called in neigh
Dor to look at the chickens and offer
advice. They were certainly dilap-
idated lot Of chickens that the neigh
Dor viewed. They were thin, and ap-
parently without ambition.
What do you feed them?' asked
the neighbor after brief survey.
"'Feed them ? responded the pro-
fessor, as though he didn't hear right.
why, don't feed them anything ]
thought the old hens had enough milk
for them.

Thrilling Adventure Of a Boy.

An Iowa boy recently passed through
an experience which he will not forget
if he lives to be hundred years old.
He is only five years old, and one day
when his father went TO the wheat
field 10 drive the harvester he took
him along and perched him on the
high seat at his side. For time the
little fellow watched the yellow wheat
lop over as it was cut in wide swath,
and the tall arms sweep it back and
bind it, and finally the fat bundles be-
ing tossed aside one by one. For
time all this was very interesting, but
presently the little fellow grew tired
and began to sQuirm and complain.
And then, Just rs his father was lean
ing over to look more closel y at some
Of the machinery, off tumbled the lit
tie fellow on the conveyor. He shrieked
Just once, and his father tried vainly
to stop the horses. But before lie
could even slack the speed the boy
had been driven up through the ele-
vator canvas with half bundle of
wheat, the binding twine had twisted
swiftly around his neck and legs, and
he was rolled out on the wide carrier,
securely bound in wheat bundle.
He was almost choked and there was
tiny bit of skin torn from his shoul-
der, but otherwise he was unhurt when
his father cut the string and helped
him up again. But worse fright
ened boy would have been hard to
find

A Sunday School Story.

A San Francisco manufacturer has
advised his little son not once, but 80
times to avoid contentious with other
children, but if quarrel is forced up
on him to defend himself at all haz-
ards. The boy is a member Of the
Plymouth Congregational Sunday
school, and it is the custom Of the pas
tor to give every child in the Sabbath
school a nice little Bible on the Sunday
following his seventh birthday.
Last Sunday, says a San Francisco
paper, it was master Kerr's tdrn TO
receive a Bible, and when bis name
was called he marched forward with
black eye he had received in a fight
with another urcbin the day before.
The pastor eyed the boys face mar
rowly and the whole congregation TT
tered. The little fellow flushed with
embarrassment, but accepted the Bible
as gracefully as possible, listened to
the few words Of commendation and
advice and started for his seat.
The tittering was renewed and when
halfway down the aisle the boys. spent
up feeling could be restrained no long
er. lie resented the imputation con-
veyed, first by the pastors searching
gaze and then by the congregations
amusement, and, stopping in the aisle'
he turned around and shouted
"Well, ! licked him, anyway"

A Word to Young Men.

We fear that there is a growing I'M
preston among our young men that
it is more honorable to keep books or
stand behind the counter and sell
goods than it is TO plow; that there is
more honor in reading law than there
is in hammering on an anvil IN u
blacksmith shop that the man who
wears blue overalls and works IN n
machine shop occupies lower position
in the world than the man who wears
white shirt and patent leather shoes
every day. This Is very great blum
der, and has, we fear, turned the heads
Of great many young men. No
doubt good plow boys have been
spoiled by young men imagining that
it was more honorable to practice law
or sell goods than to turn over soil or
shove tie plane. The blame Is not
always on the young man, either, par
ents are often at fault in this matter.
They let it out early in the life Of the
children that William and John must
select easy places IN the world. They
must not have the drudgery of farm
life and must avoid the hard work Of
the mechanic. 1t is a profession, a
situation as salesman or bookkeeper
or some calling for which mayhap the
boy is totally untitled. All work is
honorable If it is honest and all right.

GOODBYE. SWEETHEART.

SUGGESTED BY THE PRISONER OF ZENDA
Good-bye. sweetheart, God wills it thus.
Think not we've loved in vain.
Our hearts are glorified by love
And purified by pain.
Goodbye. sweetheart, It's better so.
Wen meet no more, pray,
Until our fettered souls are free.
All barriers swept away.
Goodbye, sweetheart, your path and mine
On earth lie far apart.
Perchance in Heaven we two shall meet
And love again, sweetheart.
And then, sweetheart, in that blest day,
In some pure land OF bliss,
We may obtain the JOY we crave,
The joy denied in this.
od-bye, sweetheart, the time has come,
We must part, you and |,
1t is our bitter fate. dear love
Goodbye, sweetheart, goodbye.
