THE DEEPEST THINGS OF
LIFE.

Among the deep things of life which
deserve enumeration is a profound
sense of the being and presence of
God. Most men believe in God theor.
etically, but many men are practically
delsts, in that they remove God in
their thought to vast distance from
any particular sphere in which they
may be working. Comparatively few
"practice the presence of God," as the
quaint old phrase is. A deep sense of
the majesty, might and mercy of Jeho
van is, however, essential IN order to
give human life any majesty, meaning
or result. Too much Of the piety of
the day is OF the light, aippant kind to
whom God is mere name, or as an
extra interest unrelated to present af-
fairs. What is generally needed in
churches is deeper sense of God and
a closer relation to Him.
There are also the deep things OF
Scripture. 1t is possible for an un-
coverted man to obtain literary ac-
quaintance with the Bible, and the av.
erage Christian has certain more or
less superficial knowledge of its con-
tents, but what is needed Is a pro.
found apprehension of the inner truths
of Scripture, which the natural man
knoweth not and which are reveoled
only by the Spirit of God to those who
prayerfully and diligently exercise
themselves to know the mysteries of
revelation. 1t is not enough to skin
the surface of the Scriptures-the du.
ty and privilege of believers is to delve
down deep into the heart of the book
of life. Many of these deep things of
the Bible to be ascertained only by
dint of hard labor with helps and com.
by much converse with
Christian people, and sometimes at
the cost of great personal sacrifice and
much walking in the vale of the
shadow of affliction.
There are the deep things Of Chris
tian experience. 1t cannot, perhaps,
be maintained that every Christian
exhibits or is meant to exhibit in his
life's history the profoundest tppe of
experience, for some natures have not
not the capacity for The fullest appre-
hension or illustration of truth in &C.
tion in human character. They may
be as good as far as they go as others
are, but they do not 60 80 far, and
their type of being is not so high. But
it is the duty of every man to make
his own experience of unseen things
up to the limit of his constitutional
as real, as rich, and as pro.
found as may be.
There are the deep things of love.
Love is the essence of all true religion.
Christianity makes much of love re-
quiring it, inspiring to it, and declar-
ing that love is of God. For the pur-
poses of the higher life of Carist lit
tie love will not do, for often the
strain upon one will be very great and
only a deep, high and persistent love
will prove equal to the tasks and sac.
rifices which press upon the Christian
1t is not without mysteriously sug.
gestive meaning that the apostle calls
upon US to know the love of Christ
which passeth knowledge and to prove
by ever more hearty and thorough
conservation the power of that love to
work in US unto all pleasing of God
and benefiting of our fellow men,

VACATIONS OVER.

Comes the saddened traveller home,
Comes the tourists trOOping,
Manners tagging, footsteps slow,
Heads and spirits dropping.
Office desk stool, working chair;
Wait reluctant rover;
Work is piled up in arrears,
Vacation time is over.
Past the lazy not k with rod
BY the grassy river;
Past the aimless. dreamy sail,
Drifting on forever;
Past the blissful lack OF care
With its joys that hover;
Comes again the worry-time.
Vacation days are over.
Pitch into the work ahead,
No more arawdling hour;
Face tue prob lens coming fast,
Grip them with new power;
From the worr les Of the cay
Flee no more to cover;
You have had your time to play,
Vacation now is over.-Sel.

The grange in the state of New

dition. More names have been added
to the rolls during the last three months
than during the same length of time
since the grange was organized in the
state.
Among the laws that have been pass
ed by grange influence in the interests
of the farmers are the grange school
law, so called. whereby seventy-two
towns get state aid to help the children
in these towns to more equal school
privileges. and the good roads law,
whereby the state is to expend $685.
cooper year for six years divided among
those towns that will appropriate like
amount TO be expended under the direc-
ton of a state engineer for permanent
roads. Some needed legislation that
the grange will take up at the next
session will be law for the better pro
lection of the farmers crops from
game animals now protected by law.
Deer are in some sections of the state
very numerous and often do considera-
BILE damage TO clover fields, especially
in the early spring, and to growing
crops during the summer months
There are some other matters that will
also claim attention of the next leg

HINTS FOR LECTURERS.
How n Delaware Grange Discusses
Subjects That Come Before 1t.

SUBJECTS That Come Before IL.
We rather like this idea, taken from
an account of the methods employed
In Fruitland grange of Delaware:
The lecturer must arrange and has
charge of all subjects, any member
being privileged to suggest any sub
ject he or she wishes discussed. After
subject is announced for a certain
meeting the lecturer appoints some one
to take charge of 1t and subdivides 1t
so that the salient features will come
up for consideration. Then the mem
Der in charge appoints some other
member to open the discussion on these
subdivisions.
The subject for q recent meeting was
fertilizers. 1t was subdivided as fol-
lows and members appointed to open
the discussions: What are the elements
of complete fertilizer7 How shall
we arrive at the value or cost Of these
elements or of any brand of mixed fer
tilizers2 What forms Of nitrogen should
we buy for our various uses, what
forms of phosphoric acid. and how
should they be used? What conduces
to acidity in our soils and how may
II be remedied? What forms of potash
are most desirable for orchards, what
forms are most desirable for general
use. and which is the better, home or
factory mixing of fertilizers, giving
formulas for various truck and vege-
table crops?
That demands about as near an ex
haustiye discussion of a subject as one
often comes across In grange meetings.

Grange
GRANGE ORGANIZERS.
Require Peculiar Ability to Teacl
Grange Principles.

Require Peculiar Ability to Teach
Grange Principles.
National Lecturer Gaunt points out
some of the requisites of a successful
grange organizer in recent issue Of
the National Grange Bulletin, and
what he says is quite as applicable to
county deputies, who are usually the
local organizers.
The most difficult thing In building
up the grange In any state is to find
such men who will devote time to the
work
They must be thoroughly imbued
with the principles and teachings Of
the grange and must possess the facul-
ty Of imparting the evidence of that
spirit to others. They must be ener-
getic and thoroughly impregnated with
the desire to build up the organization
rather than simply work for the money
they will get for their services. OF
course they must be well paid, for few
such persons can devote time to the
work without pay for 1t In some form
or other.
1t may be In money as an organic
ing deputy, 1t may be In honor as the
master of a thriving and influential
state grange or 1t may be, If one has
the means, In the satisfaction of doing
something to help the farmers and pro-
mote the agricultural industry. In
the Gaze of organizing deputies II must
be mainly in money, as they would be
paid in any other business for similar
services, although even with them the
satisfaction of promoting the work Of
the grange will count for something.
When the oranges In New Hamp-
shire were being organized one deputy
organized nearly a hundred oranges
and received $15 a grange, or practi-
cally $500 for organizing practically
a hundred oranges. Those same
oranges pay into the state grange
treasury over $500 every year in fees
and dues to help carry along the work
Of the organizations in the state. This
was the best possible investment that
could have been made of the amount
Of money expended In organizing those
oranges, viewing II from the stand
point of investment alone.

Everyday Blindness.

We seek for beauty on the height afar;
But on the earth II gArhmers all the
while;
'Tis in the garden where the roses are;
'Tis in the glory of a mothers smile.
We seek for wisdom in each solemn look:
But aye, beyond the musty page il lies;
IT'S in the script of Tolets by the brook;
IT'S in the laughter OF a baby's eyes.
We seek for God in every distant place;
But 10, beside us He forever stands;
We meet Him guised as sunlight face to
face;
We touch Him when we take brothers
hands.

Wisdom Of the Young.

A college graduate was he,
His knowledge was his joy and pride;
Not merely theoretical,
But we'll applied.
In science well he knew the cause
That made an earthquake jog a town
And. furthermore, himself could shake
The Old Man down.
Had he been boss of Panama
He could have quaffed of Fortunes cup:
Besides, he knew the way to make
His Pa dig up.
In sociology, dread art,
He worked not merely for his health;
He knew just how TO make his dad
Distribute wealth.
