Nature Study.
CAN YOU RAME THESE TREEsl

At a recent meeting of she A and
M. College Biological Club, the
students we're entertained by DR..
and Mrs. f. L. Stevens. Mrs. Stew
ems, whose nature study articles in
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER have inter
ested SO many readers, offered the
following questions about trees. Our
young people may prepare their an
swers in the next few days, and we
hope that Mrs Stevens will give the
correct names in our next issue:
l. Can you tell me the name of the
schoolmaster's tree,
2. And the one that you hold in
your hand?
8. The tree that you find lying
next TO the sea
4. The tree that so stately doth
stand.
5 The tree that falls down in a
slow dying fire.
6. The tree that politicians cluster
about.
z. The tree that is always crack
ing old jokes.
8. The tree with a mouth like a
man.
9. The tree that would bite if it
could.
10. The tree that keeps the ami
mails warm.
II. The tree that is a novelist.
II. The tree that once presided at
the White House.
Is. The tree that is at the bottom
of your shoe.

Dresses Of thin, transparent mate

last season with Valenciennes inser-
ton and lace.
White pique shirt waists T among
the first to be worn in the early
spring. The newest are of a light
weight and fine cord, and r made
quite simply, with a cluster of tucks
at each side of the front.
Belts of both plain and ribbed
black velvet will be worn with spring
wooden gowns. Such belts are stylish
and may be worn with spring gowns
of any color or material. The pref,
test belts are made with a slight dip
in the middle of the front.
For hard general wear a spring
suit of black, navy, brown or Oxford

THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET.

On these singing February morn
ings it makes quite a difference on
which side of the street you walk as
you go to your work or to school
On the north side the sunshine has
melted the frost on the window
panes, and the snow yields to your
tread. The genial sunshine steals
the sharpness from the frosty air,
and scatters diamond dust along
your path.
Just across the street things are
very different. The thick frost
shades every window as effectively
as a wooden shutter. The snow
keeps it's crispness at moor There is
nothing TO dull the sharp edge of the
winter wind. The one who walks
on shat side of the street reaches his
place of destination chilled through.
But the one who has walked on the
sunshiny side, enters his day radi,
sntly glowing.
There is a shady side and a sunny
side to every walk in life. When
possible keep out of the shadow and
choose the sun,-Selected.

air. Back and forth, over and over
the cat she flew, and with every
bound landed a terrific kick with
her powerful hind feet that was fol
lowed by a puff of yellow fur.
The cat could not stand up to this.
Every particle of breath and fight
was knocked out of him at about the
third kick. The green light in his
eyes was the light of terror. He got
quickly to a bush and ran away, else
I believe that the old rabbit would
have beaten him to death.-From

A PLAN TO SAVE MONEY.

Just a little box. Say four inches
long, two inches wide, three inches
deep. A looked door in front a slot
in the top; a handle to carry it by.
Just a little box-but it can do great
things.
It can make you economical, fore
handed, thrifty. It can lessen the
evils of sickness or loss of work. II
may sometimes even prevent them.
It can help you to get ahead in the
world. It can help you to save
money. 1t means education, a good
start in life.
Only the few become rich by q
stroke of luck. Most successful
people have become so by practising
economy and saving the surplus.
The habit of saving, persistently
practised, SOC becomes settled
thrift.
Saving is hard with most people
at first. It is hard to find a surplus
when wages are small and wants
many. Unless you can get it into
the bank right away, the money
burns holes in your pocket. You
miss it, but you don't know where
it went.
To make saving easy, use the box.
1t will take what you can spare-a
cent or a nickel, or a dime at a time
until there is enough to deposit in
bank, or you have time to go to
bank. 1t will serve you when the
saving impulse is upon, and protect
your savings-even from yourself
when you begin 80 weaken.
To get the good of the box you
must give it a chance. Place it in
plain sight-on the mantel shelf in
the living room or on the bureau in
your room. It you have a coin you
don't really need to use, drop it in
the slot. Repeat this operation at
intervals-the oftener the better.
Most banks pay interest upon sav-
ings accounts. They welcome small
savings accounts.
Money at interest works three
shifts a day-Sundays and holidays,
too. The more you add to il the
better it works, and the more it
earns for you.
Money in bank is more than
money it is character. The boy
with a bank account is seldom out of
work. His thrift is recognized. It
makes him a good workman. If a
boy is so be selected for promotion,
the bog with a bank account is apt
TO be chosen. He is looked upon as
a reliable boy. He makes a good
citizen.-The American Boy.

THE GLORY OF OUR BEING.

To believe in the Father in heaven
gives worth and dignity TO life. Man
is not, then, an atom of matter, flung
about heedlessly by every current of
Oosmio force, and ground up between
the mill wheels of merciless laws.
He is spirit, a child of the eternal,
partaker of the divine nature, and
his destiny is under loving care. No
hair falls from his head unseen. All
things must work together for his
good. He is no longer an orphaned
soul, lonely in a lifeless universe,
yearning for a father love that does
not exist; he is a child of a King,
even now attended by royal minis
ters, and homeward bound TO Q his
Father face to face .-Sunday School
Times.

THE GRACE OF FORGETFULNEss

There was once an old woman who
continually uttered the counsel {:
Count your MARCHES, dears count
your MARCHES"
There is no doubt that her advice
was given principally 80 the women
of her acquaintance, for, generally
speaking, women sre usually addicted
10 remembering much that they
should forget, and, likewise, forget
ting that which it would be far wiser
80 remember. Just why this is so 1t
would be, perhaps, difficult to ex-
plain, but this can also be said of
many truths, which are none the
less emphatic because they cannot be
demonstrated.
Excellent as was the advice of this
old woman who lived so long ago, it
Is of more avail now than it may
have been then, for life has grown
fuller with the years.
Too often in these hurrying days
do we add up the column where we
have made record of disappointment,
of untitled wishes, and of unsatisfed
desires, forgetting IS we do the twin
column, which exhibits the many
mercies for which we T beholden.
Be the sum of this gracious column
great or small, it will at all times
exceed our expectations. Mercy and
Measure and happiness are shy, and
have a way of appearing under
various DISCUSSES, sometimes that of
pain or sorrow, just as a great suc-
cess not infrequently wear the guise
Of defeat.
1t is just as important to happi-
ness that the vexations and troubles
of life should be forgotten. The
grace of forgetfulness is n that
must be cultivated, and when ao,
quired, gives the finishing touch &c
q character inspired and beautifed
by cheerfulness and gratitude &c

HOW RABBITS FIGHT.

One day as l was quietly picking
wild strawberries on a hill 1 heard a
curious ~grunting down the side be-
low me, then the quick thud thud !
of an angry rabbit. Among the bushes
l caught the glimpse of rabbit ears.
A fight was on.
CrOuching beside a blush spot,
which / knew to be q rabbits nest,
was a big yellow cat. He had dis
covered the young ones and was
making mouths at the thought of
how they would taste, when the
mothers thump startled him. He
squatted fat, with oars back, tail
swelled, and hair standing up along
his back, as the rabbit leaped over
him. 1t was a glimpse of Molly's
ears as she made the jump that
had caught. Is was the beginning
of the bout-only a feint of the
rabbit just to try the mettle of her
antagonist.
The cat was scared, and before ne
got himself together, Molly, with
a mighty bound, was in the air again
and as she flashed over him, she
fetched him a stunning whack or
the head that knocked him endwise
He was on his feet in an instant, but
just in time to receive u stunning
blow on the ear that sent hin
sprawling several feet down the hill

THE FIRST TWENTY YEARS.

Live as long as you may, the first
twenty years form the larger part of
your life. They appear SO when
they are passing ; they seem so when
we look back on them and they take
up more room in our memory than
all the years that come after them.
Take good care Of the first twenty
years of your life. On the use
which you make of them your hap
piness and usefulness in after years
will very largely depend. See that
they are spent in learning right

strong guard over yourself in that

UP.TO-DATE TRIMMINGS.

Nothing in the seasons modes of
decoration impresses one more than
the variety in embroidery. The
newest caprice, according to The De-
lineator, is wool embroidery mixed
with silk. The blending of oolors
which can be produced with wool,
chenille and silk is delightful, and
one of the special arts in applying it
is the use of a thin material like
chiffon for the foundation. Tulle
gowns are adorned with this SEEM
ingly heavy and homogeneous en-
broidery, and a gray tulle with white
wool in which are interspersed me-
dallions of white panne is one of the
prettiest modes of the season. But,
tons form an important item in both
the trimming of both wraps and
gowns. Buttons covered with silk
velvet and lace, both plain and en-
broidered, are the smartest of these
ornamental and sometimes useful de-
vices.

The Shreveport Times

Will have a special representative at the

Every man, woman and intelligent
child interested in North Louisiana
should read the Times. The expense
incurred in establishing a special Baton
Rouge service during the legislative
term will be great and it will mark a
distinct departure in journalism in this
section of the State. Heretofore North
Louisiana readers have been compelled
to depend for their Legislative news on
South Louisiana papers, which having
no particular interest in North Louisiana
affairs have not given them very close
attention. The Shreveport Times will
devote several columns daily to the news
of North Louisiana. One little item in
which you are interested may compen-

The Shreveport Times in addition to
this special feature contains the full
Associated Press service, all the market
reports, the local news of Shreveport,
news from the various North Louisiana
towns and special Sunday features, all
of which make it one of the leading
dailies of the South. Subscribe for it

One of the worst features of our
day is the worship of success for
its own sake and apart from the
means by which it is Obtained
To be successful is all some ask.
AS to the depths man may go
for success, no question is raised,
but such principle is rotten to
the core. To such personal worth
counts for nothing, the measure
of the man is his prosperity
There is a success that is not
worth possessing and there is a
failure that is far more to be de-
sired than some successes. There
are three elements which every
man who desires success should
cultivate inhis life--perseverance,
integrity and faith in God.

There are some men who seem to
be miserable unless they are in the
public eye. Privacy il torment to
them, and publicity is Joy. Rather
than not be noticed and talked about,
they will say and do the most foolish
things to attract attention, cutting
capers which are enough to make the
angels weep. We pity them from
the bottom of our hearts. What
poverty of soul must be theirs, seeing
that they are compelled to live upon
the husks and crumbs that they picl
up in the market places and the cor
ners of the street.-Nashville Chris

of February and August, and interest
not then withdrawn is added to the prin-
ciple, thereby giving depositors COM
