If there be aught surprising human
deed or word or thought it is a moth
er's love.
To know how to grow old is the
masterwork of wisdom and one of the
most difficult chapters in the great art
of living.
No heritage can a father bequeath
to his children than a good name; nor
is there any richer heirloom than the
memory of a noble ancestor.
BY diligence and patience the mouse

Farm Notes.

The stock water trough needs a thor

occasionally If the water is to be pure
and free from disease. The trough Is
one of the sources from which all dis
eases on the farm are spread.
Farmers who complain OF work
crowding them in the spring could
the labor some by concentrating
the manure on a few acres, rather than
to spread it over a large field, and 1t Is
possible that better results would be
obtained as the manure would be SER
viceable on a small plot n be INSULT
cient when spread thinly on a large
area.
In Nebraska the use of beets for
swine in place of the filthy slop usu-
ally put in barrels to ferment has made
a change on some farms in the condi-
ton of the hogs. There Is less disease
and but little corn Is required with the
beets, except when making the ami
mails fat for slaughter late in the year.
Beets contain a large proportion OF
sugar and are f~attening as we'll as
juicy, and are highly relished.

the book had been sent from the Castle,

He Quietly put the volume in his pocket,

of dark silk contrasting with the
coloring in the goods. The shirt is
made with three underlying plaits
at either side of the center back

slashed openings at the back,
which are finished with under and
over laps. Machine stitching COM
