the psychological aspects OF vanity,

caprice than vice, but vices may arise
out Of It. He discusses vanity OF dress,
II manners and OF intellect To pre-
vent the development OF vanity. he
says, we should begin very early with
the child. In fact, II Is we who make
the child vain 10y the misuse OF praise,
comparisons with companions, too
much admiration; also by railiery,
which may cause the child much suf-
fering and teach him to fear criticism.
There IL too much appeal to amour
propre. and there are too many compe-
titlons and prizes which may stimu-
late energy. but require very prudent
Use. II would be better to compare the
scholar with himself To work TO be
the first need not be bad. but to work
for the JOY OF working and learning is
much better and less exciting Finally.
let us remember that the advantages
we boast OF have little value In them
selves: all depends on the use we make
OF them. The only quality OF which
we can never be vain Is justice.

THE WHIPPING POST.

When Virginia and some other
Southern States had whipping post
TO punish the numerous offenders for
petty crimes, the Northern press and
politicians were constantly harping
upon it as a relic OF barbarism.
Whether because Of that, or other
reasons, the whipping post was abol-
ished, regardless of the increase OF
our criminal expenses. Now achange

Capitol OF the country, and, strange

the whipping post-it may be a good
thing-but we would like to know
how it lie a relic OF barbarism in Vir-
ginia and a thing that is abreast
with our high civilization in the Dis.

Of what to do the first OF the year.
The first man announced that be
had sworn OF all his bad habits. Ev-
erybody said he always WAS Wild
character, and IL would be well to keep
closer watch than ever on him. as now
there was no telling when he would
cut loose worse than ever
The second man, seeking to profit by
the experience of the first, declared
that he had not sworn OF because be
had no bad habits to discard. The re-
suit was that everybody pronounced
him a hardened wretch, who was In
sensible and Indifferent to the duties OF
life.
The third man studied their cases
and concluded that the best thing he
could do would be to say nothing what
ever. Whereupon Everybody asserted
that be was too calloused to reform
and was not worthy OF any respect at
all.
This simply goes to show that, no
matter how you guess. you will guess

Wool is affected by breed, climate
and food. Sheep will thrive in some
sections better than in others, and
wool from some fiocks will bring high
er prices then other woods. To produce
good wool the sheep must be well fed,
but not too much so. If the food is
not sufficiently nutritious the wool will
lack in strength, be dry, harsh, habby
and rough to the touch. Wool from
sheep that are kept on pastures which
provide abundant heritage is long In
fiber, soft, white and strong. 1t is
claimed that all foods which promote
Precipitation produce fine wool, but 1t
is not necessary to make a selection Of
foods II the sheep have a variety.

Barnyard Manure.

Barnyard manure not only supplies
food for plants. but It enables the soil
TO retain more moisture. This Is often
a very important quality and is never
estimated by the chemist In comparing
1t with commercial fertilizers. 1t also
seems that, while keeping the surface
soil more moist, It also increases the
water deeper down. thus making the
best possible condition for plant
growth. OF course when rough manure
is plowed under the first effect is to
dry out the surface, but this does not
last long. When 1t is once thoroughly
wet and settled this effect disappears.
The first foot of we'll MANFRED hand
may hold eighteen to twenty tons more
of water per acre than the same soil
