A FARM AS AZ INvEsTMExr.

a FARM AS AN IN 6SVmkNT,
A friend having a few thousands
which is only returning him per cent
interest wants to know whether he can
put 1t into farm on the basis Of 500
per acre and by hiring the work done
or by letting the farm out on shares
secure a better return for his money.
It is not easy to answer this question,
for so much, would depend upon the
farm itself, upon. his general knowledge
Of how to run a farm If he chose to
carry it on under his own supervision
or on the sort of tenant he secured If
he let it out on share rent. If! his
farm of, say, 100 acres cost him $780,
600 he would have to secure net re-
turn of $64O to equal his present in
come from his money, and, do the best
he might, he would be quite as likely
to get less as he would to exceed this
amount; not that it is not easily posi-
BILE to make better showing than
per cent, but usually farming at long
range or by proxy Is seldom a large in
terest producer. The profits as, we'll
as the losses in farm operations are
connected with the little things to a
great extent, and little leaks will soon
empty big barrel. If our friend could
live on the farm himself and credit to
the farm what it is fairly worth as a
home it would alter the case, for the
single item Of house rent alone would
represent about one-half of $64O, and,
again, his living expenses would be
greatly reduced as compared with liv-
Ing in city, where everything must
be bought at high prices. He. had
probably better be satisfied with his.
per cent rather than undertake to make
it more by handling farm located
where he can only see it a few times
during the year.

STRANGE FREAKS OF FORTUNE.
Instances in which Wealth Was Quickly
Made and Lost.

Nothing in real life is more grim than the
way in which fortune, sought or unsought,
will suddenly smile upon an individual, and
then with equal suddenness withdraw her
favors. Such cases, of course, are to be
seen by scores at gambling resorts like
Monte Carlo. Quite recently a young
Austrian officer won s23 900 at the table In
Ave days and lost every penny Of it on the
sixth.
The vicissltudes Of fortune were never
more wildly illustrated, says London An
s,cers, than by the evidence given recently
In a bankruptcy case in the Sydney Court.
The bankrupt, q mining engineer, had
won and lost no fewer han six fortunes
in his lifetime. Once he made s7,ooo in a
single week by buying a mine and selling it
again. So 500 as he was paid the money
he vent to Wyoming and invested 1t, and
some three thousand besides, In purchasing
an interest in another-a copper-mine.
Before night came the news that the cop
per lode had suddenly 'pinched out" The
investors we're beggared.
James Addison Reavis spent more than
twenty years In building up a fictitious claim
to IL, 500, 900 acres Of land in Mexico and
Arizona. This enormous territory which
is. roughly speaking, ten times the size Of
DevonSnlre, was originally BranUeu 10 Ion
Miguel, a grandee Of his court, by Philip
v. Of Spain, and still belongs to his heir, II
one can be found.
Reavis invented one in the shape of a
beautiful Mexican girl. There Il. no space
here to detail the ingenious forgeries of
birth and marriage certificates, the false
miniatures and other evidence which this
brilliant swindler prepared in order to bol-
ster up the claims OF the girl.
A verdict was given for the girl, who was
by this time Reavis's wife. Reavis was
turning to receive the congratulations of
his friends on his enormous inheritance
when q telegram was handed in. 1t con-
tanned the news that a second examination
had proved that the original deed Of gift
TO Don Miguel was a forgery. The verdict
was revoked, Reavis was tried and sent : o
prison for a long term.
Macmillan Hershal, a wealthy miser,
was found one day in his wretohed room
dying and carried to a hospital. At once
he asked that his adopted daughter might
be sent for. On her arrival he told her that
he had left her all his wealth-over ESoo, 900.
Breath was failing him fast, but after a
short pause he began TO speak again, in low,
broken whispers. Suddenly he fell back
and expired. He had not revealed the
secret OF where his bonds or cash were hid
den. Search proved useless and the poor
girl, wealthy for q minute, wen back to
work for Is shillings a week..

Tho Candy Heart.

From out her little dinner pail
She took a cookie plump and brown;
She slipped II underneath my desk
And ] a pumpkin and a clown,
Forthwith proceeded 10 invite
Ny appetite and dun its smart;
But ere ! put II out OF sight
saw II bore a candy heart.
Ahi when her glossy plgtall curl
Made way for ~friEzes. why deny
She managed both by hook or crook
To pass me commits on the sly
Az recess when we stood apart
And wove the daisy chain, ahl she
Broke with her teeth the candy heart
And gave the better half TO me.
And when the daily lessons were
All said and done and put away.
And we strolled land in hand along
The maple lane at close OF day
We leaned upon the rustic rail
To watch the rivulets below
Scatter their bubbles in the trail
OF the pale moonlight's silver glow.
Tonight the little candy heart
ind among my treasures:
A something sacred, ahi II seems
To me a kiss from paradise.
A candy heart. a golden tress.
Ali as my fingers gently win
The sllken curl with soft cares.
My lips they sigh; Sweetheart OF mine

And as he spoke his audience
Hurrahed and wept and laughed.
And some one in the gallery yelled:
Say, Gully. what's your grattt"
A lover whispered OF his love
Unto his hearts desire.
She listened to his ~pleadings.
Breathed In his words Of hre;
And then-could he believe II.
Or had he rome quite daft
She purred: "oh. George. It's lovely;
But tell me. what's your graft"
A missionary man OF God,
With patriarchal beard,
Set out to save the heather
And for cannibal islands steered,
He anchored up the river,
And there came unto his craft
A naked chief who hailed him with:
HI. popl What is your grafti"
Ny infant daughter. tired With play.
Climbed slowly TO my knee.
And. murmuring she vas hungry.
She nestled close to me.
Her mother brought the cup Of milk.

Susan II, Anthony.

For sixty years she trod the unwtndlnE way
That leads TO upper heights and broader day:
Courage for bridegroom took. and. by the hand
For children. women far of every land.
The sneering smile. the worse than Sneering word,
or In her loneliness she saw and heard:
Like all who for the many stand with few
The world dealt out Its scorning for her due.
Yet breathe We thanks today for length OF days,
That changed her crown OF thorns 10 one Of praise;
That made the world up toward the level grow
Set by that Quaker girl so long ago:
That brought forth roses for the honored dead,
And palms TO crown at last her good gray head:
That placed her in that small but glorious throng
whose hands have pushed the laggard world along.
