EDUCATION.

correspondence Of The Progressive Farmer.
Please allow me space in your
paper TO say a few words on education.
1 think boys should have mor learn
ing than girls, though 1 don't mean
tc say that girls don't need any. 1
know they aught to have some edu-
cation but not so much as boys. l
have heard some young people say
that they didn't need an education,
but 1 think every boy and girl should
know something of the world and it's
inhabitants. When I % some peo-
pie who can't read or write their
name, 1 think of compulsory eduoa-
ton. The day is fast approaching
when he who has no education will
be behind, and he who has education
will take every advantage from the
ignorant. Young men, let's go to
school and keep up our side.
AS this is my first time to appear
in a newspaper, 1 will close by ask
ing a few questions: At what time
between four and five o'clock will the
hour and minute hads of a clock be
exactly opposite? If 300 cats can
kill 800 rats in 800 minutes, how
many cats can kill 100 rats in 100
minutes? How many acres are there
in a square tract of land containing
as many acres as there are boards in
the fence enclosing it, if the boards
aree Ii feet long, and the fence 4
boards high? MITE.

SING.

Sing ! as the birds shall teach thee,
A song of love and trust;
Sing ! till the world shall listen,
Till thine own eyes shall gHsten ,
AS joy or grief shall reach thee,
As a true singer must;
May the brave music swelling,
From thy good heart upwelling,
Its message still betelling
Long after thou art dust.
Sing | for the world is weary
With burden of it's care
And men r heavy-hearted,
Perplexed, misjUdged and thwarted,
And sin has made life dreary,
Temptation everywhere;
Sing ] as true singer may,
Driving these clouds away
With promises of day
Whose coming shall be fair.
Sing I as thy heart shall bid thee,
MOI let the music die,
Its tenderest words unspOken
Give generously loves token;
Heed none that would forbid thee,
AS days and years go by.
Think not of what it cost thee,
Gold, friendship, pleasures lost thee,
OF praises seldom tossed thee,
Of blame few would deny.
Sing and thy hearts best feeling
Shall not in vain be spent.
Some soul, sin-siok, life-weary,
Shall at thy song grow CHEEKY,
As thou in il revealing
New hope for discomfort,
And put away the badness
Of sin and strife and sadness
Of misspent days with gladess,
In holy purpose meant.
Sing and thy song shall sweeter
Grow with the coming years,
And some day men shall heed thee,
Finding how much they need thee,
To make their lives complete,
Whose faith shall still their fears.
Sing with thy souls pure fire,
Thy passionate desire
That Godward doth aspire,
And heavenly music hears.

DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS THERE.

A we'll to do deacon in Connecticut
was n day aocosted by his pastor,
who said:
"Poor Widow Green's wood is out.
Can you not take her a loadP"
"Well," answered the deacon, 81
have the wood, and 1 have the team,
but who is to pay me for it?"
The pastor replied: 81 will pay
YOU for it, on condition that you
read three verses of the forty-frst
Psalm before you go to bed TO-
night"
The deacon consented, delivered
the wood, and at night opened the
Word of God, and read the passage {:
BLESSED is he that considereth the
poor the Lord will deliver him in
time of trouble. The Lord will pre-
serve him, and keep him alive /; and
he shall be blessed upon the earth /;
and thou wilt not deliver him unto
the will of his enemies. The Lord
will strengthen him upon the bed of
languishing thou wilt make all his
bed in his sickness"
A few days afterward the pastor
met him again.
How much do 1 owe you, deacon,
for that load of wood?"
Cob" said the now enlightened
man, do not speak of payment I
did not know those promises we're in
the Bible. would not take money
for supplying the widows wants.

MOT AS I WILL"

RIindfolded and alone I stand
With unknown thresholds on each
hand;
The darkness deepens az I gropo,
Afraid to fear, afraid TO hope:
Yet this one thing I learn to know
Each day more surely as l go,
That doors are opened, ways are
made,
Burdens are lifted or are laid,
By some great law unseen and still,
Unfathomed purpose to fulfil,
"Not as I will"
Blindfolded and alone I wait;
Loss seems too bitter, gain too late !;
Too heavy burdens In the load
And too few helpers on the road;
And ioy is weak and grief is strong,
And years and days so long, so long /;
Vet this one thing I learn TO know
Each day more surely as / go,
That I am glad the good and i'll
Bv changeless law III ordered still,
"Not as I will"
uNot as I will: The sound grows
sweet
Each time my lips the words repeat.
GCNot "a I will: the darkness feels
More safe than light when this
thought steals
Like whispered voice to calm and
bless
All unrest and all loneliness.

who loved us first and best has gone
before Us on the road, and still
For MS must all his love fulfil,

A breaoh-of-promise suit for two
weeks occupied public attention in
one of our large cities. The defend
ant, who was recently married, was
sued by a young woman who asserted
that he was betrothed to her. The
jury having awarded the plaintiff a
large sum, the case is said to be
closed. Is it closed? The affairs of
not only the principals in the suit,
but those of the innocent young wife
and the other members of three
families have been dragged thorugh
the courts and have become the sub
ject of public jest and comment. All
their lives the faint of this suit will
follow the actors in it. It is not a
pleasant theme, but the frequency
of these legal trials calls for plain
speaking. Engagements formed has
tily, without mutual respect and
esteem, and which are not intended
to be fulfilled, are but the first step
in a series of degradations from
which character can never wholly
wipe the stain.-Ex.

A BOYS ROOM.

"Roy takes such a pride in his
room and keeps it so orderly we must
put fresh paper on the walls and
give the woodwork a coat of paint
said his mother when talking over
her house cleaning plans for the
spring.
This mother may not have guessed
it but she held the secret of her sons
interest in his room. Keeping it
freshened up and inviting looking as
she does, he naturally takes pleasure
in having it always in nice order.
Boys enjoy pretty things and con-
veniences as we'll rs girls, but too
often their room is scantily furnished
that their sisters room may be in
viting and comfortable.
If a boys room is dingy, uncar-
peted and without decoration, of
course, he will keep it o~luttered up
and untidy and will stay out of it as
much as possible. But if he has a
desk, where he can sit and study and
keep his papers inneat order, a book
crse or a book shelf, where his
sohoolbooks and story books are
placed, pictures that he has fancied
and out out of papers and magazines
put on the walls, his treasurers COL
lected from the woods and here and
there arranged in convenient places,
pretty curtains at the windows, an
easy chair or two, his guitar, a
lounge with a few pillows if he has
these comforts and conveniences he
will enjoy his room, invite his boy
friends to join him there and will
never be found, you may be sure,
lounging on the street, because there
is no place for him at home.
A boys own room has a great in
fuence on his character, and the
neater and prettier it is the more
refining the influence. Mothers!who
desire to make their boys happy and
keep them in the safe shelter of the
home will give special attention to
their room when freshening and
Frightening up the rest of the house
will see, indeed, that it is made as
pleasant and comfortable as possible.

THR PRODIa1OUs PIE.

Oh, boys and girls, come here. and I
VIII tell you about the Prodigious
Pie;
And you'll say when you've listened
to every word,
That never before such q tale you've
heard.
Long, long ago, and far away.
Lived the mighty King Goborriolav.
Who thus proclaimed one Summer
day:
"My subjects bow,
And bend the knee;
A mandate now
/ do decree.
There shall be made a wondrous Pie,
Exceeding big, exceeding high;
And every one in all the land
Shall bring a bit
To put in it,
And each must lend a hand"
The people heard, then quickly they
Ran every one his separate way,
And you'd have been surprised next
day
To see the things
Brought TO supply
The good old kings
Prodigious Pie.
Ihey came In barrows, sleds and
sleighs,
They came in carts and trucks and
drays;
They came in cabs and caravans,
In wagons, Wains,
And railroad trains,
And ever catamaraRs.
And oh, the things the people
brought,
o really never would have thought
such delicacies could be bought.
Such spicy roots
OF havors rare;
Such wondrOus fruits,
Peach, plum and pear,
And nectarines and grapes and cher
ries,
Apricots, ourrants, huckleberries,
And apples fresh and apples dried,
Sugar and spice
And all things nice
We're literally supplied.
"And now," the king declared, 1--WE
must
Have an enormous great big crust,
ana IL Will soon Dc made, L Trust.
The miller's wag-
Ons then came in,
With flour in bag,
Barrel and bin.
And farmers Glad in leather jenkins
Brought butter in tubs, kegs and
frkins;
Then pastry cooks arrived in
hordes,
And were not slow
To knead the dough
Upon their pastry boards.
At last the monstrous pie was done,
And then the baking was begun
The over was a special one,
For this great pie
Made p~urposely;
The heat was high
AS it could be.
After the pie had baked about
A half a day they took it out
Then all the people cheered for is;
Such a hullabalOO
You never knew;
And they ate up every bit
Wells, in Good Housekeep-
ing for October.

BE OF GOOD CHEER"

No matter what occurs, keep up
your courage. The man of hope is
the man of valor. Never borrow
trouble. If it is in the future, it will
come sOon enough. The burden of
calamity you dread may never come.
And if it should come, it will find
you better able to meet and bear it
than you are to-day.
As your days, so shall your
strength be. Sufficient unto the day
is the evil thereof. The life and
words of Jesus and Paul furnish
some apt and forceful illustrations
Of the uplifting, sustaining power of
s Joyous, loving hope. On the eve
OF his crucifxion, when the clouds
were black and threatening, Jesus
comforted his disciples with those
ever memorable words: "Let not
your heart be troubled. In
the world ye shall have tribulation ;
out be Of good cheer I have over
come the world" And Paul, in
prison awaiting death, cheered his
Iow-Christians on to a life of
heroic endurance by the inspiring
e1hcrtation: "Rejoice evermore
and again I say rejoice" Christian
ny Is a religion of hope. When we
enter upon the new life we T be-
sotten again unto a lively or living
oope by the resurrection of Christ
nom the dead. Hope, says one,
gives sanity and good health it
uouoles the value of food and sleep,
Isntens every care, and gives the
1'1I5 courage for all its tasks. Hope
" Hope ever.-Christian Uplook.
