Feeding Grain to Steers.

Feeding grain to steers on grass Is
justified when pastures are short and
where these cannot be supplemented
with some kind of fodder. Where
steers are partly warmed up with
grain before being turned to grass it
may prove an excellent practice to con-
tinue feeding them about one peck per
day. BY following this practice the
animals may be kept going from the
first day. Such animals may be mar
keted earlier than those that are grass
fed alone and Invariably will command
little higher price. 1t is generally adj
visable to grind corn for grass fed
steers. Animals on grass alone fire.

Gaelic Language In Canada.

The Hon. John C. Linehan, insur-
ance commissioner of New Hampshire
and one Of the prominent members of
the pension committee of the Grand
Army of the Republic, is one OF the
most accomplished Gaelic scholars in
this country, and received a degree
from Dartmouth college for marked
proficiency in tn e ancient language.
The other evening he remarked to the
writer: up in Canada, not far from
old Arcadia, there is large territory.
composed OF nineteen counties where
English is never heard. Gaelic only
is spoken, and it is taught in the
schools and preached in the churches.
The people are largely Catholic and
Presbyterian, and the old tongue
keeps them on excellent terms. It Is
a country where vice and crime are
unknown, and where bolts and bars
are never considered necessary
Mr.. Linehan's brother is pastor of
one of the Portland (Me) churches
and on one occasion recently an old
lady from that particular country
and who was born and raised there
went to confession, and it was found
that she had no word but Gaeli,.
Luckily the>gocd father was versed in
the language and was equal to the
emergency.-NewC Century -. -.

Invocation for Soldiers Postponed for
the New Amusement.
Ping-pong has now become a factor
in ecclesiastical polity. 1t has Sc
cured for itself the denunciation Of
the Bishop Of Manchester, and has de-
prived the British army now fighting
in South Africa of a weekly modicum
Of prayer. In an Essex village a GUS
tom has been in existence for over a
year of holding special service every
Wednesday afternoon, at which sup
plications were earnestly offered for
our soldiers. This week young lady
who has been regular attendant at
these meetings went to the church at
the usual hour and was surprised to
find the portals closed. She asked
the caretaker, whom she met not far
off, why this was so, and the old dame
replied in establishment: "Oh, we
amt got no prayers this afternoon,
Miss. Why, don't you know this is
the opening day of the Ping-pong
club?"
Sure enough, the rector and his wife
and the usual Wednesday worshipers
had forsaken their prisons to play the
fashionable game, which has invaded
country villages with unprecedented
fury. It is announced, however, that
at the club ping-pong playing will be
suspended during Holy Week.

Bishop Used a Lost Child to Point q
Christian moral.
1t had been an experience meeting
Ten thousand people were assembled
in the great auditorium by the sea-
There had been the handshake. the
waving Of handkerchiefs, the hymn
the prayer, the word which told the
spiritual history of many a soul.
The bishop stood upon the plat
form in the act of pronouncing the
benediction. Emotion was at its
height; it seemed as if spiritual
wave had crept over the multitude
wrapping it in divine caress.
At that moment little child was
passed up to the platform and the
bishop took it in his arms. Lost
child" were the whispered words
The baby put its dimpled arms around
the bishops neck and laid it's head
upon his shoulder, it's yellow curls
| mingling with his gray hair.
Lost child" said the bishop. in his
deep, sympathetic voice, "does anyone
in the audience know this baby OF
to whom it belongs? Will the father
and mother come and claim it,"
There was silence and the baby
nestled closer, and the women who sat
near said '*Oh!"
Then man was seen making his
way to the altar; it was the baby's
father. Instantly the child stretched
out its arms to go to him. Then, as
he gave it up, the bishop said:
There are 10000 lost souls in
Ocean Grove. The Fathers arms are
waiting to receive them. So, go ia
your Fathers outstretched arms as
