citation. 1t has discovered that corn
breeding follows the same general
laws as the breeding of animals. Less
cob, more corn, is the object aimed
at. Modus operandi: save the best
and mix it with somebody else's best.
1t is thought by this means the in
crease of corn may equal ten cents or
more a. bushel.

Kind Hearts.

\ writer in the Sunday Masa-

Scotch BOYS. who, she says, were
always ublising and civil to her as
she travelled through their cities
When going into buildings. she
said she always left. her bicycle ii!
charge OF the most niSchievous boy
in the crowd about her. and always
found it jealouSly guarded By its
watcher. who would not suffer the
other bows to look or "speir at it.
She saws OF their gallantry: The
best story | know of an Edinburgh
street bov was told me BY a lady
who witnessed the incident. There
was a Christmas treat given to poor
children at mission hall. and hum
,rcdS oi little ones were assembled
at the doors in advance of the hour
Of ad!l1ittance, many of whom were
barefoot. Among them was a
sweet-faced little girl. who seemed
less hardened than most to the cold,
for she shivered in her poor jacket,
and danced from one foot to the
otller-alas. what pitiful dancing
that on the cold. hard stones. to
put some lie into her chilled limbs.
"a bov. not much older, watched
this performance for a few min
utes. and then. with sudden i'm
pulse OF protection. took Oft his
cap, put i down before her, and
said. 'Ie naun stand on that. Sir
Walter Raleigh's cloak has been a
svrabol of ctivalry for many long
wears. but who shall say that the lit

serves a less honorable memory!

How 70 Be Great

Do not try to do great thing
YOU may waste all your lie waiting
for the opportunity which may nev-
e. come. But since little things are
always claiming Your attention, do
then as they come, from a great mo-
tive, for the glory OF God, to win
His smile of approval, and 10 do
good 10 men. 1t is harder to plod
in obscurity, acting thus. than to
stand on the high places of the field,
within the view Of all. and dc deeds
OF valor at which rival armies stand
still to gaze. But no such act goes
without the swift recognition and
the ultimate recornpense OF Christ.
To fulfill faithfully the duties OF
YOUR station: to use to the utter
most the gifts + your ministry; 10
bear chafing unthankful and evil !;
to be content to be martyrs before
the pillory and stake, to find the one
noble trait in people who try to mo-
ka YOU; to put the kindness con-
struction on unkind acts and words ::
TO love with the love o. God even
the 1nthankiul and evil; to De con-
tent to be a fountain N the midst
Of a wild valley OF stones. no,1rish-
ing (, Jew l;chens ard wild flowers,
or now and again thirsty sheep:
and to do this always, and not for
the praise OF man. but io- the sake
OF God-tlliS makes great lie
