pressed, the three-fold cord cuts deep
when Roman soldiers lay it on with
cruel rage-but we know Him not,
and cry, "Not this man."
Again He comes with bleeding
hands and feet and pierced side from
whence there flows a healing stream
for sin-sick souls. Not knowing Him,
we shut our eyes, for we had looked
for some great, kingly warrior,
crowned with laurels and with gold
and precious stones, .conquering ma

Babe of Bethlehem, the Carpenter

bowed, the thorn-crowned, stricken
One, the crucifed, we looked not for,
and so we shut our eyes against the

Once more He will come; His
chariot wheels will roll in fire, while
myriads of angels attend Him. While
He descends the sky, long-buried
saints shall leave their tombs and
rise to meet Him in the air, while

loud, triumphant swell of millions

When We Fail to Recognize the Master.

Who is the Christ-child that comes
to our door, with sorrowful eyes,
and locks wet with the midnight dew
The aching heart that through the
key-hole looks into the hidden cham
bers of your inmost soul. The heart
that aches with its burden of love
and longs to break over your droop-
ing head its alabaster box filed with
sweet ointment. The years pass on
and we know Him not, because "His
visage is so marred," His shoulders
stoop, for many a burden He has
borne; His gray hairs float on the
wintry wind, his trembling hands,
outstretched, are filed with blessings
but, not knowing Him, we shut the
door.
Again the Christ-man comes with
blood-stained robes from dark Geth-
semane, and now the thorns, the

and that they also are the most cas-

in accommodating property it is slow

able, and have many admirable quail
titles, but they are entirely too fond
of litigation for their own good. If
a couple of belGgerents engage in a
little fsticuff, they come at once to
town and employ lawyers, and in the
end sacrifice a bale or two of cotton
or sell a horse or a milk COW, while
the lawyers put away the cash in
their pockets and chuckle over the
Eoor farmers foolishiness.

Into each life some rain must
fall,
Some days be dark and dreary."
Yet if all of us would remember

reminded by the frequent comments
on Nelly's letter-many days would
lose their gloom =
IF only those who love us
Would but tell us while we live
And not wait until life's journey
Ending is, before they give
The smile we hungered after,
Tender words we longed to hear,
Which we listened for, but vainly,
For many a weary year!
There is much of pain and sorrow
All must bear, and bear alone;
Yet how helpful~is the sunshine

will follow her example.
Rowland is a boy after my own
heart. Yes, begin to select books
for a library. and you will be aston
ished at the rapidity with which they

Mrs. Null sounds an always timely
note of warming in regard to farmers
being feeced by agents and lawyers.
Every year some itinerant agent WIS.,
its each neighborhood; and the old
story is repeated of notes signed for
exorbitant amounts, and collections
forced for much more than the value
of the articles sold. How much bet
ter if farmers would send for cata-
logs of reliable manufacturers and
dealers, as advertised in The Pro-
gressive Farmer and other careful
papers. and save agents commissions
by dealing direct.

Gent1eness in the Home.

Dear Aunt Jennie A good New
Year resolution for a mother to make
is not to be cross to the children
when she has the blues. For it
hurts their little hearts, just as it did
yours when you were just little
helpless child. And where is the wo-
man who doesn't remember a time
when she crept off somewhere and
grieved so just because some one had
hurt her by speaking too quickly or
scolded her too much, for some trifeg
Oh, be kind to the children and let
them play and romp while they are
children. Soon enough will child
hoods days be gone forever, and they
will have to carry life's burden long
enough them. It is child's nature
to be noisy, you know. How else
could happy, healthy children be?
And if a day should come when
they all would be gone forever, and
all so quiet and still, how your heart
would cry out against it, and long
for just one burst of childish laugh
ter!
Try to be young with your chill
dren. Let them feel that they have
in their mother companion and
good counsellor instead of a "boss."
Talk to them and be interested In all
they are thinking of from the grown
up daughter to the little two-year-
old. How delighted baby is when
mamma is interested in a flower or
picture he has found
And the girls-how often they
turn to someone else for advice be-
cause they know if they tell mamma,
she will scold so, when If that moth
or had gently advised and explained
why instead of scolding, she would
have been the confdant of her daugh-
ter instead of being left alone to
know nothing of her daughters in
most feelings. I don't mean to put
blame on the mothers for all their
daughters mistakes; but haven't we
all been girls, and don't we know how
we would have felt had mamma been
bad to scold every time we made
mistakes instead of tracing them
away with smiles and good counsel?

The Farmer Boys Advantages.

Dear Aunt Jennie Il don't know
the password, but I am going to
ring any way; and if you will allow
me to come in and talk little while,
I am sure I will congratulate myself
heartily.
I wish to speak a few words to my
brethren, the farmer boys, on the
Bright Side of Farm Life. We make
a great mistake when we get it into
our heads that the farm and coun-
try are not the places to produce
great and honorable men. A casual
glance at the lives of most of our
country's leaders will show that they
spent their boyhood in the country
if not in the routine of everyday
farm work.
/ do not believe there is any other
vocation that is so advantageous to
ones self improvement as farm life.
The greatest advantage, I believe, of
country life, is the wonderfully good
opportunity one has for reading and
thinking.
1t is impossible for one to improve
himself without thinking and think
ing lot. Now in order to have ele-
waiting thought we must read a lot
and read good literature. Now I be-
lieve the farm provides the best op-
portunities for both of these, read
ing and thought. Every farmer boy
has a lot of time all through the
year. but he would not have if he
were in the city or town working on
salary; because if his duties did not
consume his entire time, numerous
friends and worthless pleasures
would. I believe when person
wants to think very deeply on any
subject it is very necessary that he
should have quietude. and this is al
ways available on the farm; while it
it not so in the city.
1 think every farmer boy ought to
read at least one good agricultural
paper every week (say The Progress
sive Farmer) and he ought to start
early and create for himself libra

ty or thirty dollars to lawyer, not
realizing that he is deliberately rob-
bing his family of many things
they stand sorely in need of. while
the lawyers and their families enjoy
the fruits of their toll. / once knew
fine old farmer who paid out sew
enteen hundred dollars in law suit
over a piece of land worth five hun
dred dollars.
Agents of all kinds reap a rich
harvest among farmers, particularly
those who do not keep up with the
times by reading The Progressive
Farmer, etc. The cooking stove
agent, the sewing machine agent and
dozens of other kinds, go around the
country, and persuade the farmers
that they have the very best article
ever manufactured, and that this
will be their first and last chance to
get it. and then sell to them on the
installment plan at an enormous
price. The willy agent next sells all
their notes at the nearest bank, and
the poor farmer finds out later on
he could have bought stove or sewing
machine from some responsible local
merchant for thirds less than he
paid the agent.
I have read so much lately in the
papers over compulsory education
for the children who work in the cot
ton mills. Some imaginary philan-
thropists do not want the girls un-
der fourteen to work in the cotton
mills. / have never yet read one
word of Pity expressed for the chill
dren of the poor farmers who are
compelled to work in the fields from
the time they are six or seven years
of age, and often the mother takes
her little babe and puts it in fence
corner or under a shade tree, and
works along with the children. Num-
bers of good women IL this part of
the State are doing all their house
work, and assisting in the field from
spring till fall.
Let me say in conclusion, / con-
slider the farmers wives the noblest
and most self-sacrifcing of women.
Many noble sons and daughters have
left the farm to fill honorable posi-
tions in the world. When the Lord
comes to make up His jewels, the
farmers wives will be among the
brightest stars in His crown.

STATECAPITOL
"EXTRACTSAND FLAVORS"
Law DRAWS A DISTINCTION BE-
TWEEN THE TERMS, TO WHICH
DEALERS ATTENTION IS
CALLED.

E. K. Slater, state dairy and food
commissioner, has issued warning to
retail grocers that all illegal favoring
extracts must be off their shelves BY
July l. An order issued a year ago
fixed Jan. l as the limit, but it was ex-
tended six months. Dealers handling
illegal goods after July will be pros
ecuted.
Mr.. Slater explains the difference be-
tween lemon extract and "lemon fla
voring.' Under the law the extract
must be made. of pure lemon oil and
ethyl alcohol and must contain per
cent of lemon oil. If it contains less
it may still be sold as "lemon flavor
ing. Goods labeled "lemon favor or
" favoring" may be adulterated, pro-
vided the ingredients are put on the
label, and are not injurious to health.
The same is true of vanilla and other
extracts. AS the law is to be enforced
after July 1, purchasers of extracts will
know what they are getting. If they
wish to pay less and get 'f1avoring'
they must take their chances.
Food samples analysed during the
past week include lemon extract made
with poisonous wood alcohol, so-called
"lard,' made of talloW and cottonseed
oil, cherries colored with coal tar dye,
and preserved with salicylic acid,
"pure" sorghum mixed with glucose,
and strawberry jam containing CONNER
cial glucose. -.

A WONDERLAND ATT HOME
FRIENDS OF THE MANAGEMENT
ARE ENTERTAINED AT THE NEW
AMUSEMENT PARK. .!,. ..

I The inner mysteries Of Wonderland
were thrown open last night to the
friends of the management, and for
three hours the entire plant was under
the most rigid. inspection. Hundreds
and thousands Of electric lights blazed
Internationally in every part Of the
grounds and festooned and encrusted the
chutes, the SCENIC railway and other
attractions. Staid and dignifed bust
ness and professional men made merry
parties and trooped over the grounds in
search Of various forms Of amusement.
The old mill was working and the
bumps were all in the Chilkoot pass. A
bon vivant from the Chamber Of Com
merce and party of friends tried the
old mill boat trip and enjoyed it so
much that they had to be pulled out
Of the tunnel to make room for others.
Another venerable and well-known pro-
fessional man, unable to wait, for the
orchestra, took the wheel at the piano
in the dancing pavilion and tickled the
worries that the, ladies might trip the
