 Paris. March 14.-With reference tc the Franco German controversy over Moroccan reforms. The Temps this morning says:
 Should Germany maintain her claim for an inspector of police commanding at Casa Blanca, France can only op- pose her veto to the humiiiating prop osition. Germany's insistence of the exclusion of Casa Blanca from a Fraeo- Spanish mandate Is only attributable to a desire to obtain a part Of Mo rocco. To the trap thus laid, France prefers the status quo which would be better than such an andication.
 At accord with Great Britain and Spain at Fez, France has thousand means of defending the status quo against German aims. France already has conceded much and now Is CnlY struecliug for tho minimum of her rights and the preservation of her dig nity.

Comfort for Hen and Chicks.


1t is cruel plan which shuts of the
air almost entirely from the hen with
brood Of chicks by placing q board in
front of the coop at night; nor is such
a plan necessary if one will take the
trouble to build coop or coops after
the following plan. Build the coop
after the usual plan, sloping the roof
to the rear and covering the front with
Stats except at one lower corner, where
"a door should be arranged so that the
her can be easily let out when desired.
To solve the problem of plenty of fresh
cir and at the same time freedom from
prowling small animals, construct a
screen; make the frame large enough
completely to cover the front of the
coop and cover it with wire netting; at
either side fasten a strap with hole in
the end, and on the sides of the coop

mission to unreaSOning force The in
Unite program for the perfection of
spirits was born of an infinite spirit.
over all is the life in which we alone
find rest, the life to which our inner
life answer so that we say, Father.
Not God who can come from with
out into this world and Interfere on
our behalf, but he who knows the way
we have to take because it is part of his
being
In this a man can rest, living his
life, seeking the best, learning his les
son, suffering the fire and the blast
for the sake of the product at the end.
Faith is this confidence in the love
that is over all rather than some spe-
cial effort to provoke the intervention
OF love that only is intermittent.
Prayer is not petition to king it Is
coming to Father of whose life our
lives are put part. Such Father of
ten hides his hand that the heart of
his children may be strengthened by
meeting adyertiSities and sorrows. His
opportunity does not appear until our
extremity is reached. 1t may be that
he is least Indifferent when he most in
excusably seems absent. 1t takes great
er love and courage to leave the child
to fight his own battles than it does to
rush weakly to his aid.
Faith in God helps man to fight
as though he were alone; he never
worries as to whether he will receive
divine aid nor allows his own arm to
weaken in dependence ON it. God helps
us most by not helping us at all. He
Shlws his heart Of love by withholding
the hand of help. The child grows
by the lessons in self-reliance. The
hand always is nearer than he knows.
The workman Is greater than his
II is, and of more value than his work.
We weep because our tools are broken,
or our products lost or shattered. But
the Master Workman Is watching; he
sees what we do not, the growing skill,
the steadiness of nerve, the judgment,
the likeness to himself growing in the
worker; he knows that many tools
must be outWorn ere the master be de-
veloped, that the fruits Of our crude
efforts which we now esteem as mas
terpieces must be shattered lest we re-
main content with incompetency.
In the nature Of the case it forever
must remain impossible to demonstrate
the guidance of a divine hand. If we
were sure of that always all initiative
would be destroyed But one may have
confidence that he who stitch in the
heavens is an ally and not an enemy,
that a heart rules there as here, and
between the Lord Of all and the least
of us all there may be growing conf
dence and love, and all life may re-
joice in the thought that love rules the
universe.

what Makes Quality Ina EGGS.

The grocer soon learns that he must
send good eggs to his customers or he
will not have them long, and the farm
err who is progressive will soon learn
that he must do the same. The word
fresh" when applied to eggs, may
mean a great deal, or it may not. The
egg grower who wishes to create reg
ular demand for his eggs at high
prices must market his stock promptly,
for there is nothing that so disgusts
the experienced handler Of eggs as to
find that the eggs that he bought for
fresh had been held in the country for
two or three weeks. Storage eggs, that
are put into the refrigerator immedi-
tely after they are laid, come out bet
ter, after four or five months have
elapsed, than the eggs that are allowed
to remain in the farmers pantry for a
month after they are laid before they
are marketed.

Your hard task is great invitation.
The problem of living cannot be
solved by talking.
Things are not heavenly unless they
essentially are happy.
Human kindness is the greatest law
of the heavenly kingdom.
Cursed be the success that brushes
aspiration.
Back of all public corruptions are
our private compromises.
Our great losses are not the things
taken from us but the things we miss.
The damage is not in the corruption
Of our riches, but in our corruption by
them.
He only can walk in the high places
who walks humbly before the most
high.

are immortal no longer worries over

Some Grant Stories.

For several years there was much
said about a railroad from Galena to
Janesville the idea being, when once
there. to arrange with the then Mil
waukee and Mississippi, now the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and st. Paul, to run
a line to GAINESVILLE from Milton juno
ton. and thus secure a Milwaukee con-
nection. The line was built from Mil
ton to GAINESVILLE.
A number of moneyed men of Galena
had been induced to interest themselves
in the project. In 1860 several Of these
gentlemen, including the banker, Henry
Corwith, who loaned vast sums Of
money to Wisconsin lumbermen from
thirty to forty years ago. being of the
number, drove overland to GAINESVILLE
