The Grave of James C. blaine.

Probably most persons have been incrednlou'
when they have been told through the newspaper:
that the grave OF Mr.. Blaine unmarked
The fact seems to be that his memory has beer
neglected TO that extent. On Saturday ! stone
was erected. and the reproaclI that has existed
thus passes away. Mr. Blaine deserved too vel
of his country. his party. and his friends to acl
this tribute SO long. one would have thought
that even The personal following which had
formed to support him in lssI, when he ran fol
President. would have taken pains to honor hin
in the grave. There are organizations of the
Pluncd knights which still maintain profession
of faith in lis vrilc character snd aggressive ma
tional ideas. That he forgotten by un
grateful republic, according to proyerb in thi:
respect is not 80 significant as that his onthu

MR.. CHOATE NOT
MR.. PLATT'S SELECTION
VIII Not. However, Oppose His Con-
frmation Ambassador to Eng
Innd-objectS to Mr. Reid.


New York. Dec. S.-Signs are not need
cd to show that Senator Platt will not
oppose the confirmation by the Senate
of Joseph H Choate's nomination If that
gentleman is named for the office of am
bassador TO the Court of St James
In the face of this disinc cination of the
Senator to obstruct the wishes of the
President rests the fact that Mr.. Choate
is not Mr. Platt's choice for the h gh
position. In fact. he has urged no one
but he will use all his influence aga nsl
two o. three men who are in line for the
appointment Notably among these is
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid. and the feeling is
reciprocal. There is mutual regard in
this respect. for Mr.. Reid does not ! ke
Mr.. Platt. The Senator thinks the edi-
tor has already drank To its full exi ent
from the political cup of eminerce. He
would oppose Mr.. Reid's nomination.
There is a pronounced feeling here that
the successor to Mr.. Hay should come
from this State but there IS a clash as

The consensus of opinion here how
ever. is that the next ambass ido- to

Here Is plain message to the aver
age Christian: YOU want to serve
Christ; you want toshow your love for
him. Yet your abilities al. common
place. You can MT make a fine speech,
you caunot write a great book, you
cannot bear the martyrs witness. How
then can you turn the eyes of any con-
siderable nun Der of people to the Lamb
of God? Simply end surely, by MAX
ing your life one of ministration. Set
tie definitely that your conservation
shall show itself by unselfishness. In
the constant choices that every day
and every hour brings, choose to saeri-
flee yourself At all costs, serve peo'
pie. Stoop to the humblest deeds OF
helpfulness. Make yourself of no rep
utation And say nothing about your
sacrifices, your conservation. Christ
likeness speaks its own message. As
certainly as the gospel is true, it will
come to pass that all the multitude oil
people whom your life touches, directly
and indirectly, will see in you the spir-
It and character of Jesus. By your
life their thoughts will be turned to
His life. Through you they will learn
to love him. Could angels ask for a
greater life mission that that?

mixed with a greater or smaller
amount of organic humus-lke sub
stance, holding variable but large
quantity of moisture in its composition.
The percentage of this organic mat
ter is usually low, amounting in our
soils rarely to more than ten in hum
dred, being more frequently only four
to five. The water reaches a higher
figure, and though Is per cent of it in
soil will support a ripening crop,
double the amount is preferable in the
early season and more for a limited

OIL per cent nitrogen.

Sweet Glover as Honey Plant.


H. r. Boardman, in Gleanings.
am surprised that any bee-keeper OF
experience, who has had a reasonable
opportunity of observing, should report
sweet clover anything less than a first
class honey plant; and yet | am aware
that there are a few adverse reports
coming from very reliable sources.
am quite sure-yes, | think | know
from my own experience and observa-
tons with this plant, extending
through a period of a dozen years or
more-that it is unsurpassed, and
equaled only by the noted alfalfa, and
these convictions are supported by the
opinions of some of the most practical
and reliable bee-men of my acquaint-
ance. The last season was the first for
several years when white clover alone
yielded me any surplus, and this, too
with the fields white with its bloom In
every direction as far as bees could fly;
and yet ] should not be warranted in
claiming that white clover was not a
good honey plant. 1t has a worldwide
reputation that is unimpeaehable. If II
were no more abundant than its cousin
1t would hardly have gained this en-.
Yia%e epItation-certainly not In the
last few years.

substances for the lack of which a soil
is wholly sterile. In all discussions
Of agricultural problems relating to
mineral fertilizers but three sub
stances need to be considered, potash,
phosphorie acid and available nitrogen.
The large quantities of potash and
phosphoric acid in our soils are there
fore of value; but insoluble at present
to large extent their value is hy-
pothecated to the future. By their
gradual conversion through atmos-
pheric and other agencies of insoluble
into soluble compounds they furnish
a steady though limited supply Of plant
food for a moderate crop, but the de-
mands of modern agriculture for large
and salable annual harvests sufficient
to yield a satisfactory return over and
above their cost of production Is not
responded to. True, improved meth
DDS of cultivation will insure better
returns, out only up to a certain point
beyond which artificial, /. e., mineral
fertilizers, become a necessity. The
readily available plant food. the ac-
emulation of centuries, has been
CLEANED by our forefathers of their
fertile acres; to us the choice is left of
having time unlock similar treasures
yet in our soil and in the meantime
quit harvesting, or to supply the de-
ficiencies by becoming buyers with the
certainty of becoming to a much larger
extent sellers of our products.

Purifiers of Life.

There are some men and some wom-

think mean thoughts or speak ungen-

ADVICE TO MINISTER'S.
Given by a Minister.
Preachers who practise it will

No class OF people is so liable to throat
trouble as the great class who make up the
Gospel ministry. The strain put upon the
vocal organs by constant exercise; the
sudden change from heated building to
the cool air when the vocal organs are in
a state of complete relaxation; the fact
that minister feels impelled TO use his
voice when actors and lecturers would
take the needed rest; these are among the
reasons why "Clergymen's sore throat"
Is known as special disease. The Rev.
