MIXED A Bear.

1t is not often that Representative Henry
of Connecticut pushes himself down in one
of the easy chairs of the cloak room aud
spias a yarn, but when he does it is safe
to buy pools that it is good one, One
day recently he said in his quiet way
Back in the old days of Connecticut
there was distinguished divine who
every Sabbath expounded the Gospel at a
country church. He was not an educated
man, and usually called upon some friend
to read the text, usually explaining that it
made no difference from what chapter or
what verse the Gospel was read, he could
expound it, On Sunday the parsons as
sistant read from the twenty second chapter
of Genesis, which contains the words :
These eight did Milcha bear to Nabor,
Abraham brother.
81 Now. my brethren and sistern,
began the parSon, as the Good Book was
closed and he stepped behind the high-up
pulpit, we viii consider these blessed words,
these spired words, which should teach us
that We are in bx9'er fix than the Christ
ians of the old dass--the days when that
blessed old Book was written on stone
We have cows, hOrszs, goats, sheep and
al kinds of animals and chickens, ducks
and turkeys, and 50 on, an our hearts
ought to be overfowed with gladness and
thankfulness We have our women folks
an cows for them to milk, an all our
wants are supplied. Back in the days of
old Abraham the case was different, for as
you have heard from the reading of the
Scriptures it took eight to milk a bear, and
the chances are that that one old she bear
didn't give as much milk as common

A Profitable Partnership.

When the school divorces itself from the
mother, or when the mother ceases to work
with the school, dark day dawns for the
child. Two complaints have been heard
of late years in regard to education.
Mothers have been protesting that lessons
should not be brought home to be learned.
What are schools for? they have impa-
tiently asked. Teachers have declared,
for their part, that they cannot take the
place of the mothers and teach manners
and morals, as well as reading and arith-
metic
Both complaints are ill-founded. The
mother and the teacher are partners, not
competitors, in the great enterprise of
making boys and girls into men and women.
Whatever service can be rendered by one
to the other should be done not grudging-
ly, but eagerly-for the good of the whole
business is the advantage of each of the
partners,
You teach toe much arithmetic said
Japanese visitor to an American school.
In Japan We teach our children manners,
then we teach them morals; after that We
teach them arithmetic, for arithmetic with
out manners and morals make men and
women sordid
Whether we have too much arithmetic
may be matter for discussion, but there can
be no doubt that our children will profit
by more and better manners and morals
To that end, the schools and the homes
need more to be ''mothered -

Oats and Fowls.

\ writer in The Epitomist says:-I con-
slider oats one of the best feeds we have
for poultry of all kinds and ages. 1 buy oat
screaming of the oat meal mills and moistens
it with milk for my small chicks, and moth
ing could make them grow faster or deyel-
op into better fowls If farmers would
only try this feed in place of the corn meal
that they use, they would soon learn that
it is much better for the chicks. When
they get a little old | pour boiling water
on whole oats, and when cold feed this to
the chicks. always feed oats mixed with
corn and wheat to my adult fowls and
could not do without them. For this pur-
pose the heavy white oats are the best.
When feeding whole oats to either fowls
or chicks, one must keep plenty of grit
before them in order to avoid crop troubles.
If farmers would get away from the corn
they feed their fowls and give more of
variety, including oats and wheat, they
would increase their egg yield and have
healthier and better chickens. Simply be-
cause they do not raise anything but corn
is no excuse for feeding it, for they could
sell some of the corn they feed and invest
in few bushels of wheat with profit to
themselves.
