SELF-DENIAL ENNOBLES.

The speaker stated that only short
time ago he was conversing with Pres
ident Anthem II. Lund. on the subject
OF self-sacriiiCe, when the latter ex-
pressed the following sentiment.
'Self-denial Is enuobling" The re-
mark made a deec impression on his
mind, Bishop Whitney said and he
wished that he might give rtterance
In what he was about to say TO some
thought that would be remembered
and bear fruit, when himself and the
occasion had passed out of memory.
Human nature Is prone, he con-
iinued, to plead lack of opportunity
as reason for not performing the
duties OF life. They who indulge In
such excuses would fain place the re-
sponsibility upon God But this can
not be done, for the Almighty requires
no impossbilities at the hands Of His
children, and opportunity is given to
every soul for the doing OF good
We are ofttimes surprised. said
Bishop whitney to see the results that
flow from something that we have said
or done. Only recently he had re-
celVed copy or a paper published at
Johnstown, Pa, which contained a very
fair account of n visit paid by the
writer to the Tabernacle in this city.
On the occasion mentioned. the present
speaker had been called upon to ad-
dress the assembled worshipers, and
he little thought that remarks then
made by him would so impress a list
ener that they would be published TO
the world.
GREAT FROM SMALL THINGS.
Bishop Whitney ga Id that II he could
p In, 4 a
to speak briefly on the subject of great
things that frequently grow out of
things seemingly small and unimport-
ant, 1t is impossible for human Wis
dom TO discriminate between matters
finite and those which pertain to the
Infinite, or to Judge as to events which.
TO mortal eyes, seem to be accidents,
but which IN reality are the designs
and purposes Of an overruing Provi-
donce.
CROMWELL AND WlNDER.
The speaker here read from a poem
By James Russell Lowell, In which the
author represents oliver Cromwell and
Everard Hampden, as standing on u
pier OF the mighty Thames. considering
whether to sail for the new world, or
whether to remain and continue to OPP
pose their king As sequence OF
the decision then and there arrived at
by the great English emancipation and
champion OF freedom. the rei-n Of
Charles First ended Ignominiously, ana
the oaken chair OF Cromwell became
more glorious than a throne.
At this point Bishop Whitney related
an experience IN the life OF President
John K. Winder as showing how great
and important events ofttimes result

CAN'T IGNORE SMALL THINGS.

In conclusion, Bishop Whitney said:
we cannot Ignore small things Nor
monism may be considered small, Il
may be ridiculed. but 1t is divine mes
sage to the world. 1t is the little stone
cut out Of the mountain without hands.
and is destined to nh the whole earth"
The choir sang as a closing anthem,
song OF the Redeemed" and the bene-
diction was pronounced by President
Richard w. Young.

The Buff Color In Breeds.


There is popular superstition
among breeders OF fowls that IL
yellow corn rs fed to them for q
very long time II will produce
a yellow color In the flesh. This
has never been proved, and most OF
us will question II II is so. We know
that the color OF fowls depends large
ly upon the breed. Most OF the Euro
pean birds have white flesh; most of
the American birds, yellow flesh. II
any of our readers believe that they
have been able TO effect a color of
flesh by feed, we will be glad to hear
from them.

Increasing the Ego Yield.

We have found II some what dinicult
to increase the egg yield per hen,
though we have taken a great deal OF
pains In the matter. With Just a farm
flock II is not possible to use some Of
the devices that can be used by the
men that make a speciality Of poultry
raising and have men always at hand
to do any kind OF work required. There
Is the trap nest. II serves to show
how many eggs a hen will lay and
when she lays them, but II is of no use
to talk about using that kind Of an
arrangement on the farm, for tre rea-
son that people are too busy to attend
to II. We can't keep the children at
home from school to watch the hens
and let them out of their prison when
they have laid an egg.
However. ] am certain that the trap
nests are only approximately correct.
They only show what eggs the hens
lay in the trap nests. was visiting
not long ago an establishment where
they use trap nests. | asked the man.
ager what was done with the eggs
tndl WCIo uiOPpcu OutSlut OF the trAD
nests. and he said those did not count.
Some hens will lay only In a certain
nest, and when they cannot have ac-
cess to that nest on account OF some
other hen being there. they simply
drop their eggs where they can. The
trap nests increase the number OF
eggs dropped II may be that somo
Of the hens that have failed to reach a
certain standard laid their eggs else
where than In the trap nests. I think
the trap nests are q great help to the
person that has enough leisure to look
after them. but do not think that they
tell the whole story.
On most OF our farms nothing is
lone to increase the egg yield, I be-
Iieve that the most practical method
for us farmers to use Is to employ
egg bands and then make sure that
we kill OF all the fowls that have
passed their most useful years and
fill their places with young pullets
Just In the prime Of their laying abil-
ity. also believe that we can In
crease the egg yield by feeding less
corn and coming nearer to a balanced
ration.

The throat is the gateway to the body.

one OF our most common ailments.
Strangely enough. it is also one of the most

Sore Throat is very serious matter. for
