newspaper responsible for the higher
education of its patrons? To the di-
rect iteration of such query, there
would probably be- thousand different
replies which prompts and suggests
the idea that the public really doesn't
know what it does want. Am 1 my
brothers keeper, is not an argument
that can be lightly tossed in the face of
either irresponsibility or conserva-
tism grown old from the negative
qualities of quiescence.
Be that as it may, the editors reply
is but one illustration of many,-a con-
fession that the better and best has
been sacrificed to expediency, the
modern altar of materialism. To what
extent any people or nation may de-
lude themselves with tie idea that the
expediency of thing is its own justi-
fcation; and that the ideal, character,
individual integrity, are but attributes
to be taken en- at leisure, without for
feiting the privileges which true pro-
gress bestows, is a question which
history has answered in the past with
no hesitation whatsoever The meaning
of the lines, aside from their intent and
purpose form very pertinent allegory.

learning. Learning and knowledge
usher us into the temple of Truth and
inspire our hearts to worship at her
shrine.
There is something sublime in the
resolute rigidity of purpose which faith
inspires. Through it men are deter
mined to rise superior to all opposition,
to conquer or die. 1t is this quality
that makes heroism glorious and mar
tyrdom sublime. It is an element in
all noble deeds and is proof of nobil-
ity of character. It is not found in
the heart of the base and cowardly.
An assurance of victory is inspira-
tion and strength, and faith is always
an assurance of victory No matter
how great mans real strength, he is
conquered if he has no faith in himself
or God. To him who has faith opposi-
tion spells opportunity. It is sort of
human omniscience, for it always does
the right thing in the right way at the
right time.
Faith is contagion. Nothing in
spires energetic action on the part of
others more quickly than this "Moun-
tain-moving" quality 1t commands
confidence and forces respectful
hearing. 1t developes the noblest.
faculties of its possessor by finding
employment for his highest energies in
the most exalted channels. 1t makes
one quick to notice, prompt to decide,
energetic to perform, and these three
qualities constitute genius. Take faith
from the earth and the world would
become moral morgue and the church
a charnel house without beam of
hope. Faith is an assurance that
ultimately Light and Truth shall
triumph S. D.

OOKING back only score of
years or SO it is readily seen
IL that vast difference exists
between the farmer of today
and his ancestors. Years ago he was
poor, ignorant "to marked degree"
unambitious, distrustful 1--WE cannot
blame him for that, considering ali the
gold brick, green goods men and light
ming rod agents he had to content
with and had practically only the tools
the Almighty provided him with-his
hands-to plow and make his fields
productive.
Today he is we'll provided with
worldly goods, not to call him wealthy;
he has fair education, is thrifty, am
bilious, has modern implements to as
sist him in developing and cultivating
his possessions, and is always ready
and willing to invest in any new device
that may be of service to him. For he
is striving to reach the top of the lad
der of success.
Does the farmer of the present live
any better than his predecessors
From personal observation 1 think he
does. I have worked in various farm
ing communities, and in food stuffs
and wearing apparel the farmer always
buys the best he can afford for himself
and family. He may not wear clothes
of the latest Paris styles, but he dresses
neatly and plainly, altho the cartoonist
often pictures him wearing highwater
trousers and carrying large weather
beaten alpaca umbrella. He transacts
his business in prope, manner and is
highly thought of by b. leighbors and
those with whom he may come in con-
tact. His home and family are dear to
him and he aims to make life as COM
Portable and please 1T for them as lies
within his power.
In such homes ] y be found an
interesting library of trent literature,
ancient and modern history aud also
family Bible. He ant his family are
devout Christians and it matters not to
what creed or denomination they be-
long, they will drive to their house of
worship on Sunday.
That the farmer takes pride in edu-
eating his children is readily seen, as

Acute Intelligence.

NINBAD'S story about the ele-
phant in Calcutta that would
~ pick up drunken sailors and
carry them safe and sound to
their home, while he would ignore men
of all other calllngs, reminded me of a
very yintelligenthorse l once owned. He
was the most gifted animal l have ever
known or read of. | was living at the
time in the city of Olwapolis, and, be-
ing quite prominent in politics, re-
ceived the appointment of mail carrier
from the government. It was neces-
sery for me to secure a suitable horse
After considerable haggling managed
to secure bay gelding, eight years old,
from an old farmer who told me the
horse would have to be city broke, as
he had never been in town in his life be-
fore. However, 1 was amazed at the
rapidity in which he learned the route
and by his all-around intelligence. 1t
was wonderful, the many things he
would do.
In some manner he took violent
dislike to policemen and would bite
them if they came near. 1t made no
difference if they were in citizens
clothes; he was never known to makes
mistake, and it kept me in constant
trouble. At last the horse became
known all over town and policemen
would test him just to see if he would
bite as if it was joke, and he never
failed to make good if he could reach.
One morning as was unhitching in
the alley policeman came up and
asked me what time it was. I told him
it was just twelve minutes past eleven,
and we talked awhile. I warned him
about getting too close to the horses
head, but he persisted and to my terror
I saw the animal spring with wide
open mouth right at him. Suddenly
he stopped and put down his head to
be caressed. I was astounded and
the policeman said, 81 knew he wouldn't
bite me; I'm too tough" couldn't
understand it at all, but it came out
the next day when met the policeman
in citizens clothes. He told me he was
discharged from the force the day be-
fore, the discharge taking effect at
fifteen minutes past eleven in the fore
noon. The wonderful instinct of the
horse had told him the man was no
longer q policeman. Truly q horse

our universities and colleges are at
tended by large number of students
from the agricultural districts, but
such students only in rare cases return
home to continue in the footsteps of
their parents. They become profess
sional and business men, and today
many of our able statesmen and repre-
sentative merchants are proud to assert
that their parents are farmers.
The farmer is usually we'll versed- in
state and national politics. He is a
self-thinking man, affiliating with nei-
ther political party but casting his
ballot as he thinks best for the interest
and welfare of the country at large.
A stranger is always most royalty
welcomed and Hospitality entertained
during his stay at the farm if he car
ries himself in proper manner.
Many fine views may be had in driv-
ing through farming community, but
[ was surprised to note that all farm
houses along the road from Marshfield
to Neilsville, Wis.,, are built of brick
and stone, which alone, | think, speaks
we'll for the farmers of that region.
Many farmers are emigrating from
Illionis, Indiana and Iowa to Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, and the Dakotas, as
land is much cheaper in the latter
states than in the former They find
the soil just as good and railroad ac-
commodations are such that they can
dispose of their products to as good
advantage as in the central states.

Newton-the x-prisoner-and together
they hire cheaper rooms. Haig gets
work in grocery store, and Newton,
unknown to his friend, attempts to rob
Gwynne's house, is shot and fatally
wounded. Haig is warned in time to
flee, and goes to Gwynne for help. The
latter clears him from all suspicion
and in course of time the two become
strong friends. Phyllis begs forgive
ness, and the book ends rather abruptly
with Haig undecided whether to "curse
God and die as Newton had died or to
join again and forever the ranks of
the world and receive the worlds
golden pay"
Mr.. Kaufman has ability, but he has
chosen trite subject to write about.
The book is interesting, but uncon-
vincing. The bishop, for example, is
overdrawn, and for man who has
lived in the world and been of the
world for three score years, he shifts
his views of society rather suddenly.
The character of Haig is weak and in
consistent. The theme is a difficult
one to handle and has long since been
threshed out. Each case of the kind
is problem of itself and by itself
must be worked out. 1t has been de-
creed that we live our life among the
millions. There are general rules for
all. The law of the millions, whether
good or bad, we must conform to or be
cast out. F. 7.
