SHORT TALK TO THE BOYS.

Boys, be careful. Many boy has
made good impsession when he did
not even know he was being watched.
Business men are continually watch
ing the boys. If they see one boy
coming out'of a saloon, with a olga
rette between his lips, and the other
with clean collar on, coming out of
Sunday school, it does not take
long for them to decide which one of
the boys they want TO employ. Many
business and professional men do
great many things themselves that
they don't want their boys to do.
When you are man you can do as
you please about those things, but
until you are you will do we'll to be
careful. The great trouble of the
average boy of to-day is his big head
and brazen cheek. A boy may and
should have a pride about him that
will make him do his level best that
will make him keep neat and tidy;
that will make him polite and ac-
commodating. Politeness does not
consist solely in taking off your hat
and carrying it in your hand half a
block on cold day every time you
chance to meet a lady on the street.
It means lots more than that. Tt
means giving elderly infrm persons,
however poorly clad, the right of
way every time. 1t means being
just as considerate of the feelings of
your own sister as you are of those
of some other boys sister. It means
a thousand little kindnesses though
small in themselves, will in the ag-
gregate build up for you a host of
genuine friends, and do much TO
brighten your particular corner of
this great world.
When men want to raise anything
in the garden or on the farm they
SOW the seed, and if the seed is good,
the soil rich, and the season favora.
BILE, an abundant harvest is the re-
suit. This is true not only in agri-
cultural pursuits, but in all other
walks of life as we'll. If you want TO
raise anything you must begin by
sowing the proper seed. If it is a
character you wish TO raise you must
SOW the seeds of honesty, integrity,
of temperance and morality. Sow
these literally, and the crop will
take care of itself, so that you can
place TO your credit a good healthy
character that no man can take from
you. If it is your wages you wish to
raise, you must begin at the bottom,
and SOW the proper seed. Take the
first field that offers you a respect
able situation, and begin by sowing
the seed of honesty, sobriety activity,
attention tO business, sagaoity and
faithf ulness, and you will soon see
the fruit of your labors in an increase
of wages, until you find yourself at
last in position to raise the wages
of your own employees, in proportion
as they SOW good seed and plenty of
it. The world may owe you living,
but it will never pay the debt until
your claim is presented in due form,
stating the amount of labor for
which you claim pay, and having the
amount duly verified. There is no
truer saying between the covers of
the Holy Book than that "What-
u L

COFFEE SUBSTITUTES.

The Maine Experiment Station has
been investigating the various sub
stitutes for coffee now so extensively
advertised and sold mostly, we pre-
sumo, TO towns people. The substi-
tutes examined were Postum Cereal,
Caramel Cereal, Golden Grain, Old
Grist Mill Coffee, Wheat Shred
Drink, Grain-O, DIR. Johnson's Cereal
Coffee, and Mo ko.
These are advertised as healthful,
nutritious, free from all poisonous
alkalOids and greatly assist nature
in preserving a clear and fresh COM
plexiOn, soothing, quIeting, beauti
ing, making children strong and
healthy, and in general making life
a delight instead of burden.
The analyses, however, of these
substitutes show that they are from
IS to y refuse, and of all, the soluble
portions, that which alone goes to
make up the drink, are much less in
value and amount than similar nu-
triton furnished by skim-milk. We
do not know that we can better give
the results of the experiment than
to quote from the conclusions of the
bulletin, as follows:
SKINNED milk is generally con-
sidered pretty thin beverage, but
as seen from the table it contains
from three TO twenty times as much
solids as these so called nutritious
drinks. Wheat Shred Drink is per-
haps a fair illustration of these
goods. The label claims is to be
nutritive in the highest degree,
and yet one would have to drink
four and one-haIf gallons of the in
fusion TO get the amount of protein
furnished by one quart of skinned
milk. A teacup full Zone fifth of
quar6J of the decoctiOn of Postum
Cereal, which it is claimed 'nour-
lsLes, strengthens and vitalizes,
contains about One-seventh of an
ounce Of solids (dry matter) and
about one one hundredth of an ounce
OF protein (nitrogenous matter).
While it would take nearly one
fourth of cup of milk to furnish
tA.- weight of solids, the protein of
