"Push your bar in here alongside

The little man did as he was d.

his efforts on the other side, and then,
under the strain of their united eXer-

raised it, putting all the strength
they possessed into the operation, un-
til at last, with one great effort they
hurled it backwards, and it fell with
a crash upon The pavement behind
them, revealing a dark, narrow hole,
the bottom of which it was impossi-

Nov, then, Gideon, my worthy
friend, what have you got to say

brow. "You pretended to doubt my

THE PATH AND THE STREAM.

"A gusty, dusty, frosty day,
With copper sun in sky of gray;
"A pathway stretching far away
Through fields of withered clover;
Meath leaf1ess boughs by soughing pines,
And Indigenous strung with naked vines,
Where sparrow chirps and blue jay whinss
And noisy crows fly over.
Beside the stream, whose placid flow
AS noiseless seems as falling snow,
Yet fretful DER it's sands below,
1t cleaves the barren wood;
BY messy banks, through marsh and fen.
It loiters in the bosky glen,
Then rushing down Its course again,
In ever changeful mood.
Despite its wayward mood and course.
The pathway constant from its source,
Comrades for better or for worse,
They meet the oceans tide;
Like true hearts, joined by friendship
chains,
And soul-knit by its joys and pains,
1nseparable while life remains,
Though death may sever wide.

The Day Of the Week Changes at
Chatham Island.
For many years wise men were con
stantly asking the question. Where
does the sun skip a day?" 1t took a
long time and a great deal Of discus
sion to settle the question, but at last
II was decided.
Chatham Island, lying of the coast
of New Zealand, in the South Pacific
ocean, Is the one habitable point Of
the globe where the day Of the week
changes. It is just in the line Of de-
markation between dates.
There. at high twelve, Sunday noon
ceases and Monday noon begins. sun
day comes into n mans house on the
east side and becomes Monday by the
time II passes out OF the western door.
A man sits down to his MONDAY din
ner on Sunday and it is Monday noon
before he finishes II. There Saturday
is Sunday. and Sunday is Monday, and
Monday becomes suddenly changed in
TO Tuesday
Some witty observer has said thai
people who have lost much time ought
TO 20 to Chatham island. for. by tax
ing an early start, there they can al
ways be one day ahead. - Detroi

JOIN The CROWD.

The New Northwest is increasing
from immigration, by 100000 people
yearly. This region offers a field for
farmers, stock raisers, miners, lum-
bermen, millers, fruit growers and all
classes Of labor. The Cody-Wyoming
extension into the Big Horn Region
offers a splendid opening for the live
stock and wool business and for farm
ing by irrigation.
The industrial expansion that is
now the basis of wealth in the East,
will be repeated in the Northwest.

Professor Barnes cautions parents
against the Overstimulation of young
children and cites various ways in
which this is accomplished. One Of
these Is to provide elaborate play
things in large quantities, which have,
he says, bad influence on children.
a child's interest is so easily aroused
that many attractions prove confusing
and wearisome and generally injuri-
GUS to his development He considers
that an iron engine with two or three
cars, a good supply of building blocks
and one limited Noah's ark will make
an ample list for boy under six years
of age. If another toy is supplied, one
of the three should be taken away, it
being extremely desirable that child s
attention should be concentrated on a
few things at time. The professor
deprecates many of the summer out
ings given to children, considers travel
bad and condemns in wholesale fash
ion the "sin," as he puts it, of allow
Ing little boy or girl to sing and dance
and give Rotations for friends. He
qualities this statement with another

before his parents only is quite another

The birch grows farther north than
any other tree. Next comes the ST

The dark spot in the center of bean
blossom is the nearest approach to
black that occurs in any flower.
Suntlowers may be tranSplanted quite
easily if the work is done on a rainy

Preserve a green lawn in the center
of the garden, however small This is
needed TO set off the flowers and for
purposes of relief.
Mignonette is so unobtrusive that its
presence is often betrayed by its sweet
scent merely. but a large bed of mi
