Subjects of Thought.

The roots of strong tree do not
make much rustic, but they do the
hanging on in time of storm.
Have you a good opportunity to be
revenged for a great injury? The
truest revenge is to refuse revenge.
Economy is the good genius whose
presence guides in variety of ways
the footsteps Of every prosperous man.
Perhaps the reason we are so prone
to find fault with our neighbors is that
it helps us to forget our shortcomings.
A great deal Of knowledge, which Is
not capable Of making a man wise
has natural tendency to make him
vain and arrogant.
Great, ever fruitful profitable for re-
proof, for encouragement, for building
up in manful purposes and works, are
the words Of those that in their day
were men.
Magnanimity Is greatness of soul,
exerted in condemning dangers and
difficulties, in scOrning temptations,
and in desplslng mere earthly pomp
and splend r.
1t is not only in finished undertake
ings that we ought to honor useful
labor. A spirit goes out of the man
who means execution which outlives
the most untimely ending. All who
have meant good work with Their
whole hearts have done good work, al
though. they may die before they have
the time to sign it.

Granting Cows in Summer.

While in many sections grain feed
ing must be done this summer, the Or
binary practice is not to feed grain to
cows that are on pasture. This Is ac-
knowledged to be a mistake by those
who have tried both methods, provid-
ed their cows were grade or thorough
breds. In some sections the belief in
grain has been carried to the extent
that the cows are barn-fed the year
through. That this results In. good
milk flow cannot be denied, but there
Is some question as to the advisability
of depriving cows Of grass entirely.
On the other hand, there can be no
question about the value OF granting
TO a moderate extent in connection
with pasturing. To commence with,
the supply Of grain should be small,
say a pint a day, increasing the guam
tity as the value of the grass de-
creases. The expense of this plan is
certainly ANAL compared with the re-
suits, and during this month and Au.
gust is a good time to test tt.-st.

The Cowardice of Wild Anima,s


All animals are towards, according
to the agents, says Lawrence Perry,
writing on the wild Beast Traffic" in
Leslie's Monthly. Unless a tiger, or
lion, or indeed any wild beast, has
tasted human blood, he is quite ready
to let you go your way If you will let
him go his. In captivity, the animal
agents say you may enter any cage
provided you have your whip with a
lead bullet on the end of your hand,
and provided also that you know how
to use 1t effectively. But the least let
up In vigilance means destruction. You
might tend an animal for years. and
have him know you well, but that
would not insure you against an attack
from him the first chance that offered.
The lion Is the only animal that is ca
pable Of affection. A few years of as
ISOLATION with lion, one agent, de-
clared, will in many cases insure YOU
a dog-like affection, but even in a lion
this affection may not be too greatly
relied ON. A leopard is the worst cow
ard Of all, and that is the reason whv
SO many female animal tanners use
them in their exhibitions.

Venezuelan Women.

Venezuelan women are indeed beau
tiful. Descended from Spanish and
Indian ancestors, they combine in their
persons the beauty Of the two races
and with their lovely faces and grace
full figures make a type Of feminine
loneliness that is unsurpassed. The
Venezuelan woman's complexion ID
clear olive, but her rounded cheeks are
painted by nature with the loVeleSt
crimson and her beautiful dark eyes
seem to express all the emotions Of her
heart. When she smiles her CHEEKY
lips reveal the most perfect Of teeth
and she looks so absolutely bewitching
that you long to see her smile again.

Good Words for Boys

Be manly, boys. A frank. straignt-
forward manner always gains frlenus'
II YOU have committed a fault step
forward and confess 1t. Concealed
faults are always found out sooner or

Be courteous, boys. 1t is just as
easy to acquire genteel, courteous

Be prompt, boys. 1t is far better to

ness men do not like hardness. They
realize that time is valuable. Five
minutes every morning amount to half
an hour at the end Of the week. Many
things can be done in half an hour
Besides, disastrous results often follow
lack Of punctuality.
Be thorough, boys. Black the heels

be sure that both shine. Pull out the

Don't break them and leave them to
