!: Judge Not.
o, men who are good, who are honored
and great,
Be kind to your brothers of lowly estate;
II masters, then be not IN tasking severe.
If rulers. then rule men in love and not
fear;
And II ye be fathers, wise, learned and
strong,
Lead the little ones tenderly, slowly
along.
Ere you sneer at the humble or punish
the base,
Pause and think for while. Put your
self in their place.
Fair lady, se naughty, SO chaste and 80
cold.
Kept safe from harm in loves sheltering
fold,
Ere you turn from your frail, erring
sister with scorn,
Think how she was tempted and how
she was born.
Her ruin may date from smile or kind
word,
The first that her poor, hungry heart
ever heard.
Then pause ere you taunt her with sin
and disgrace;
How il you had been tried? ':Put your
self in her place.
Proud man, whom the white robes Of
ermine enfold,
As you weigh others sins in the balance
you held,
Ere you crush the last spark in 4 heart
doomed to bleed,
Let mercy come in for a moment and
plead,
Ere you sentence "for life'' poor broth
er to dwell
With the ghosts Of the sins that shall
people his cell.
Think why you are honored and he in
disgrace.
What is hid in your heart? "Put your
self in his place.
Put yourself in their place." Yes, have
mercy on all,
Who through love or through hate, good
or evil, shall fall
Who knows in the light of judgement
divine
Which soul shall be whitest, the sin
ner's or thine?
Fear to judge lest you stand at the heav-
enly door
To see harlots and publicans 10 in be-
tore,
While you cover with guilty confusion
your face
And cry when too late to be put in their
place! @

Game of Passing Beans.


This is an exciting game and needs at
least two older people to superintend it.
The children are all arranged in two
lines. with small table or chair at the
head Of each line, upon which is placed
a bowl OF common white beans. There
should be the same number OF beans in
each bowl, possibly about twelve or four
teen in all.
The child next the bowl takes out a
bean. passing it to the next child, who
in turn passes 1t on down the line, while
the leader continues to take out the
beans, one by one, until all are passed.
the order being reversed when the end
of the line is reached, and the beans
started back again, the child at the enl
dropping them into the bowl.
There are sure to be several beans
dropped in the excitement, and when all
are returned those in each bowl arc
counted, the one having the greatest
number winning the game. In case both
sides and even in number of beans a.
the end the one who can get them in
first wins the game.

A very noticeable point Of. difference
between the-conversation Of a gathering
of what is known as fashionable society
and social gathering of unsophisticated
people. is that the former do not talk
over their troubles or their health. They
have schooled themselves to suppress
their feelings. to talk of impersonal SUBJ
jects, to be gracious and attractive to
those about them, and to avoid what
ever may be unpleasant in conversation.
There should be no need to enter this
society in order to initiate their ex-

is narrow. self may be, in a measure,
forgotten when we are with others; and
1t Is doubtful sort of pleasure that one
can get from the rehearsal of private
woes or i'll health. Even the most in
quisitive and prying soon tire Of hear
ing this. and 1t is often said by one
person of another tat she is a bore.
constantly talking of her aches and
pains
1t is pity that the person herself can
not hear such remarks. 1t would be \
shock, doubtless. but in the end a kind
ness. A good plan is for person to
forget herself and what others may be
thinking of her. One must be broad,
open, generous and kindly-tempered, In
order to wear the small courtesies easily
and naturally
In the desire for sympathy from
friends. one is apt to be selfish, and 20
forget that each one has his or her own
share Of troubles in this world No
one is exempt. and what we are all in
stinctively craving Is happiness and
freedom from care, which we canot get
through the tale of another's sufferfngs.

BENCH1NG HILLSIDE ORCHARDS.


craving is growing upon steep north
hillside-slant fully half-pitch-in a
hill orchard owned by Mr.. j. II. 10y,
in Effingham county. 1t is six feet in
circumference, IS years old and is es-
timated to have produced $3.50 worth OF
apples. The orchard has northern
and southern slope, with ridge wide
enough for one row of trees. Original
" there were about 300 trees, consist
ING of IS or 20 sorts. The trees were
planted IS years ago and most OF that
time the orchard has been pastured. AT
this time not more than so trees re-
main. the majority of which are in rapid
decadence. The Is Ben Davis trees
were the first to die, and the Jennetings
and Ninklers are the best preserved OF
those surviving. Nearly all the trees
living in this old orchard are on the
north hillside and they are best where
the slant is steepest. So far as can bs
determined from a study OF the old
trees remaining in this orchard, decay
and decline are traceable in nearly
every instance to cutting out large
limbs, splitting down at forks and in
Jury at base from borers, sunscald or
other causes unknown. 1t appears that
trees which made low or branching
top and bore only moderate crops OF
fruit were longest-lived. Peach trees,
mostly seedlings, were planted in this
orchard, between the apple trees after
the latter were in full bearing, but were
short-lived and not very productive,
which l think was rather owing to the
fact that they were in sod than from

IDEA TOO ORIGINAL
The Mayor Suggested That the Towns
Visitors Climb the New stand
pipe for Entertainment.

In one of the towns of the upper
peninsula they were preparing 10 en-
terrain q delegation of eastern capital
lists, many of them accompanied by
wives and families, who were prospect
ing for investments in mining, railroad
and other enterprises. At the meeting
10 make arrangements for the recep-
ton the new mayor presided. He had
ideas of his own, says the Detroit Jour
nal, and evidently thought that his Off
cial position entitled him to settle any
disputed question. After several plans
had been suggested, he took the floor.
Gentlemen" said his honor, what
l insist upon is something original and
something that these people will al
ways recall as having happened right
here. Our neigbbors in the east
dropped them few thousand feet into
a copper mine; our rival city to the
north drove them six miles to see the
water works; at that struggling little
burg west Of us they gave them chapce
10 blister their faces over the red sand
stone quarries. We're no imitators.
What / propose is that we let them
climb, one at time, to the top of that
new standpipe of ours. They'll know
we're up to date on our fire department
and they'll get u splendid view of the
surrounding country"
And it took the leading men of both
parties to get the mayors consent 70
another programme.

M1NKLER TREE IS YEARS OLD.

any other cause. 1t is worthy of note
in the study of this orchard that the
trees were longest-lived that were on
the sides and at the base of the hill.
Nv studies of this and many other
old orchards on hill sites seem to war
rant the following conclusions: That
trees planted on hill sites will come
into bearing earlier and will produce
heavier crops of fruit than on level
sites; that a north hillside is better
site than a south hillside; that an or
chard on a hill site will be shorter
lived than on level site; that the
longevity and fruitfulness of an orchard
on hill site would be greatly increased
by sub-soiling and clean cultivation, as
such orchards suffer greatly from lack
of moisture; that only such varieties as
are not given to oyerbearing should be
planted on hill sites If longevity is de-
sired in the orchard; that hill or or
chard ought to be benched, which may
be done by blowing at a right angle to
the slope and breaking the soil on the
lower side of the trees, as shown in our
lllustration.-A. D. McCallen, in Ameri-
can Agriculturist.
