But not only Is this a season when
the heart Is made glad by the beauti.

the Joy Of the Psalmist as he looked
out on some September scene In old
Palestine centuries and centuries ago:
The pastures arc clothed with 1locks,
and the valleys are covered with corn.
Thou crOwnest the year with thy
goodness, and thy paths drop fairness"
For indeed this is a year Of plenty.
All the great staple crops have yield
ed btuntcously, except cotton--and
the price for that Is too good for there
to be much discomfort as to the short
age. Our American corn crop this year,
1T Is said, will be 2 lit, 600, 600 bushels.
The wheat crop IL estimated at 7O4,.

600 bushels. "Of these crops,'' says

Ing on the estimates, 1T Is said that
1t Is the largest production of corn
ever known" And 1t continues:
The highest previous corn yield
was 1923 600, 600 bushels. Only In
1901, when 1t vas 748, 600, 900 bushels,
did the wheat crop so above the 1906

KISSING MOTHgR,
A short L- oture to Girls From
Ladies' Home journal.

A father, talking to his careless |
daughter, said: II want to speak to
you about g0Gr mothsr. II may be
that you have noticed o care- worn
look upon her face lately. o. course
it has not been brought there by any
act of yours, still 1t is your duty to
chase 1T away. l want you to get up
to. morrow morning and gat breakfast;
and when your mother comes in and
begins to express her surprise, go
right up to her and kiss her on the
mouth, and you can't imagine how it
will brighten her dear face.
Besides, you owe her o kiss or two.
Away back, when you were O. little
girl, she kissed you when no one else
was tempted by your feyer.tainted
breath and swollen face. You we're
not as attractive then as you are
now. And though those years of
childish sunshine and shadows she
was always ready to cure by the mag
10 touch OF q mOther'S kiss, the little
dirty, chubby hands whenever they
we're injured In those skirmishes with
the rough old world. And then the
midnight kisses with which she
routed S % many bad dreams as she
leaned above your pillow, have all
been on interest these long long years,
'Oi course, she ia not so pretty
and klssable as you are; but II you
had done your share OF the work dur.
ing the past ten years, the contrast
would not be SO marked. Her face
has more wrinkles than yours, and
yet II you were siok that face would
appear more beautiful than an angels
as 1t lowered to minister to your COM
fort, and every one Of those wrinkles
would seem to be bright wavelets OF
Sunshine chasing each other over the
dear old face.
"She will leave you one Of these
days. These burdens, If not lifted
from her shoulders, will break her
down. Those rough, hard hands,
that have done so many necessary
things for you, will be crossed upon
her lifeless breast. Tnese neglected
lips, that gave you your first baby
kiss, will be forever closed, and those
sad, tired eyes will have opened la
eternity, and then you will appreciate
your mother: but 1t will be too late -
