Procena Too Exnen.rye

J.Warts are curious things. They
come and go mysteriously, although
their going is frequently marked by
exasperating delays, and there are al
most as many infallible cures as there
are warts, the only trouble with these
cures being that they are useless when
applied to the particular wart you hap
pen to have. They are only good for
other peoples.
"In my opinion. said clubman who
was discussing the subject with a
friend one day, "a wart Is merely the
outward correspondence of some men,
tai excrescence. Get rid OF that, and
1t goes away.
Let me give you q bit OF my own
experience" he continued. Last year
went to Europe. For about three
years had had wart on my little fin
ger, on which 1 had tried everything I
could hear of, but without effect. 1t
only grew larger.
"Well, In the excitement of preparing
for the trip and of the journey itself 1
forgot all about my wart, and when 1
looked for 1t about six weeks later II
had vanished without leaving the
slightest mark. simply forgot 1t, and
1t had no mental condition to feed on.
l see you have one on the back Of your
hand. Forget all about 1t for few
weeks, and it will go away OF itself"
YES" said the other clubman. shrug-
ging his shoulders, "but | can't afford
to take a trip to Europe for the sake OF
curing one wart."

Sewing Done hr Anta.

Ants are credited with so many mar
velous accomplishments that new one
must be remarkable to the noteworthy.
Mr.. e. G. Green of Ceylon, an authori-
ty upon insect habits. has, however
made an observation which is well
worth putting on record. He has watch
ed red ants holding grubs in their
mouths and using the web they spin to
repair rent In their nest.
Some leaves which had been fastened
together by the ants were separated by
Mr. Green, md In a short time after he
saw small white grubs being passed
backward and forward across the gap.
Closer observation showed that each
grub was held In the jaws of one of the
worker ants, and It's movements were
directed as required. y continuous
thread OF silk issued from the mouth Of
each grub and was used by the ants to
sew up the rent In their shelter.
There were no grubs I'm the neIghbor-
hood, and those used were obtained
from q nest ut some distance. This de-
liberate use Of naturally formed web
as sewing thread Is as astonishing as
any instance Of the intelligence of ants
yet observed.

Peculiar Trecn.

The visitor to the Falkland islands
sees a number OF what appear to be
weather beaten. moss covered powders
OF various sizes scattered here and
there. On attempting to turn one over
he is surprised to find that 1t is anchor
ed TO the ground by roots OF great
strength. These are not powders. They
are trees. No other place in the world
can show such n popularity of "forest"
growth. The Falkland islands are ex-
posed to strong polar wind which rem
ders 1t impossible for trees to grow In
the proper form. Nature has conse-
quenuy adapted herself to the prevail
Ing conditions and produced this
Strange form of plant life. These ''llv-
ing stones" as they are called. are
quite devoid of grain" and it is next
to impossible TO cut them up and utilize
them for fuel.

DIGNITY Or FARMING.
IN AN the world There u No NcbIer
or Mere Learned CaIIing Than
Thas 81 A9FicuItmre.

Within recent years II has come Il
be acknowledged that the vocation Of
the farmer isthe most dignified of al
the sciences and as an art IL Is ex.
ceiled only by those Of painting and
architecture. In its highest forms II
- the most learned of all professions.
A knowledge of geology and chemis-
try and their relations to the soils
lies at.the very foundation of scien-
tific agriculture. The problems that
arise from the complex nature of the
soils and their origin require the
best thought of the best minds to
solve. More educated young men
should be farmers. Agriculture opens
a wide field leading to influence and
power, one, too, that is not filed to
repletion. 1t holds forth the most
splendid promises to young men of
ambition. It is filed with hberaliz-
ing tendencies, a noble conservation
and the most healthful and invigorat-
ing influences. The day is not far
distant when agriculture will attract
men Of the largest capacity and the
highest executive ability, and be re-
garded as the greatest of all the pro-
fessions. Let anyone who is familiar
with what agriculture was a hundred
years ago compare its condition
then with what it is to-day and he
will search in vain for the same pro- |
portionate elevation and progress |
among its followers in any other
branch of human industry. Many of
those engagsd in agriculture now are
menisf high elevation and broad
res ding. Many of them have extern
siye and valuable libraries and take
numerous journals devoted to their
business. Agriculture moves along in
Its own quiet, dignifed, but irresisti-
BILE way. 1t has no booms, so to
speak, but it gathers strength with
each decade and with every accession
Of knowledge, and will forever be the
most important branch of human in
lustry and the greatest necessity for
he human race.
If the young men who are measur-
ng tape and laces would surrender
heir work to the young girls who
re seeking employment and turn
heir attention to the pursuits Of ag-
iculture there would be less misery
nd more contentment in the land;
here would be more independence
nd less servility; more men and few
r creatures; more happy wives with
comfortable homes, healthful chill
rem and cheerful tempers. A woman
by all the active agencies
well-kept farm and living in a
eautiful country home with foun-
atoms and flowers and sweet ever
reens," has those environments that
svelop the sweetest graces and high
1t impulses of her nature and make
sr virtues shine resplendent above
Ie world of frivolity and fashion. She
,comes true woman, the happiest
wives and the best of mothers.
lch home and such wife realize
If highest ideals Of human happi-
SIS. It is Q home where intelli-
nee reigns and ennobles work and
ork crowns intelligence with honor
d profit.
A young man who is in search of an
sy place, with NO responsibility,
II never be master and will never
ntrol others. He who selects a vo.
lion because it is easy is already eff
