WISE WORDS.

II you 90 not love folks you will not
be happy.
1 Most people make their religious bar
gain days come on Sunday.
THE world has no greatness which it
does not owe to self-sacrifce."
The waves of public opinion do not
affect the tides of Gods purposes.
The warmth Of a mans heart cannot
be told by the temperature of his head.
The manly part is to do with might
and main what you can do.-Emerson.
The earth is the Lords. but a man
does not show his religion by trying
to get il all.
A living character affords the only
colors in which God could paint His
idea Of a man.
There never will be n poor prayer
meeting so long as there is one heart
rich with gratitude.
1t is not wise to put all your energies
into working for old rebels to the
neglect of new recruits.
1t is better to lose the setting of
prosperous circumstances than the
jewel of pure character
We have no right to upbraid men for
loving the world unless we are Offering
them something more lovable
Nothing is more an enemy to saving
knowledge Of gospel mysteries than 4
priding ourselves in head knowledge.
Set yourself earnestly to see what
you were made to do, and then set
yourself earnestly to co it.-Phillips
Brooks.
Get holy principles, and thou shalt
get the pinions of an angel. which shall
bear thee above all clouds and storms
Of earth. into the sunshine and calm
of eternity.-Dr. Thomas.

cessitated the continued exposure of .
very large number of untricd ner to

feet and -. 700 feet, and the general re-
suits are of considerable value. Tie

THE MOST DEADLY POISON.
Three Grains OF Cyanide Would XIII
Many Persons.

Many Persons.
A new and most deadly poison has
been discovered recently, as noted in n
scientific journal. by Mr.. Lasceles
Scott, an Engishman. The substance
is scientifically known as di-methyl.
arsine cyanide. or more Familiarity as
cyanide of cacodyl. Three grains of

While trying its effect upon animals
Mr.. Scott experienced the deadly ma
ture of this poison. Onemllonth part
OF cyanide of cacodyl in the atmos-
phere of an air-tight cage killed dog
almost instantaneously. and then its
power was by no means exhausted.
for second third, and fourth dog

infniteslmal dose. Although so little
of the properties of this poison are
known. IL was first made many years
ago. Cadet the famous French chem.
ist, by combining acetate OF potassium
with white arsenic produced n fuming
liquid which. although he did not know
Il, was oxide of oacodyl. The German
chemist. Bunsen. combined this with
cyanogen. radical of prussic acid. and
made cyanide Of cacodyl.

ABOUT SALADS.

Nothing is more decorative on the
table than a bit OF salad served in the
heart Of some lettuce leaves, in lemon
or orange cups. cabbage leaves or
scooped out onions, cucumbers. toma-
toes, beets. turnips or peppers. Celery
salad, plain or mixed with apples or
nuts or plain lettuce salad is served
always with game.
Potato salad is perhaps the most
popular FOR the home table. ana moth
Ing seems to take the place Of a nice
chicken salad for social affairs.
Every housewife who wants the fac
tor OF a satisfactory life to abide in
her family will seek to include a salad
in Mt least one menu each day. A leaf
salad, cress or lettuce, should be served
with a heavy dinner.

FOR THE FLOWER GARDEN.

The farmer who feels that he cannot
spare the few cents necessary to buy
some flower seeds or Il few plants is
taking life much harder than is neces-
sary. A small investment i'm this line
will do more toward making the home
life pleasant for the women and chill
dren than ten times the Investment in
anything else. Here is a plan to make 81
supply a wealth Of flowers, from mid.
summer until the late fall Invest fifty
cents in seeds Of dwarf naSturtiumS,
thunbergias. sweet alyssum. candy
tuft and morning glories. all simple
seed varieties, but furnishing an abun.
dance of bloom during the summer and
in considerable variety. Then with the
balance Of the sum buy geraaiums,
few bulbs Of gladioius and few
roots Of cannas. Set the Gamma roots
i'm the middle Of bed ten feet across
and the geranuims about the edge two
feet apart and fill in between them
with plants Of the dwarf naSturtiums
which your wife or daughter has raised
from the seeds. The result will be a
bed of foliage and towering plants
raised from the seeds mentioned above,
except the morning giories, which can
be trained over strings or wires along.
