EVERYDAY FANCIES
BY Mrs. NJ. A. kidder.

II the poor should cease from out our
land,
And the needy be no more,
Then what would become of the open
hand,
And the rich mans borrowed store!
Thought his wealth should reach To
the azure sky, ...
The fields would all unfruitful lie,
For with lack Of need, and no mouths
to feed,
Man never would plant or sow the
seed.
We never should list to the factory
bell,
Or the engines labored pun.
To the busy throngs that buv and
sell,
II we mortals had enough.
The idle ships on lazy tide,
N..h white sails folded would rock
and ride;
With all settled and no lack Of bread,
Trade would be gone and commerce.
dead.
If the rich should cease from out
the land
And the Master lead no more,
Then what would become OF the
working band
That look up for their modest
store?
With no master hand the work to
plan,
And no money to pass from man to
man,
This world would be in its misery
AS bad world as one could see.
Then Well be contented with our call,
And quarrel with fate no more;
For the rich and poor are brothers
all.
From the king to the humble sower.
Let the world go on in the old time
way, ..-
With its sunshine bright, and its
shadows gray;
With it's needy hands, that the gen.
erous hands
May be ready to give as the case de-
mands.

In the Grain.

The grain of wheat, as now known,
is, properly speaking, a package filled
with -four cells, each one of which
contains all of the elements of the
-four out of which the housewife
makes her bread. In each grain there
are several hundreds, and often far
more, of these -four cells, and each
CT these cells, complete in itself, has
quite an elaborate structure of its
own. 1t has a skeleton, in which the
nucleus representing the vital princi-
ple) is suspended, and in the net
work of this skeleton are also held
a multitude of starch granules.
Thus each wheat grain contains a
vast total number of starch granules
from ten to twenty millions of them
which are provided by Nature to
serve as readily-digestible provender
"a sort of breakfast food') for the
baby plant in the earliest beginning
of its being. Later, the skeletons ct
the cells, in which the starchy parti-
cles are suspended, afford additional
nourishment-jus as the white Of
an egg nourishes the unmatched chick
after the yolk has been absorbed. For
it appears that the skeletons, so to
call them, are composed of the SUBJ
stance known to US as "gluten. -

VALUABLE DISCOVERY.
Enables Man to Make Balky Horses
Work and Brings Fortune.

Leseueur (Minn.) Cor. ST. Louis Republic.
DIR. John G. Longbeat of Avondale is
perhaps the only physician that ever gave
up the medical treatment of his fellow
men to engage in the business of DOCTOR
ing animals.
Despite the fact that he has, and. for
seven or eight years has had fairly good
practice for country physician Dr.
Longbeat took this radical action yester-
DAY, and his reasons for doing so are PEI
culiar.
He never knew anything about horses
as a general proposition up to three years
ago. and was therefore quite an easy mark
for a shrewd horse trader in the neighbour
hood who swa>Sed with him one day
and worked off onto his unsuspecting in
nocence fine-looking horse that was,
however, the balkiest animal in the coun-
try round about. not worth S15 for a dri-
yer or any other purpose, while the one
the doctor had parted with in exchange
was valued at 500.
This horse baked with the cheated man
out on Main street, In front of the post
office, the next day after he made the
trade. and stood there three hours before
he could be induced to move away. The
laugh was ON the medical man. and very
heavily.
DR.. Longbeat said not a word. He led
the horse quietly away when 1t got tired
of standing there but. to the utter amaze
ment of every one, he appeared ON the
street a week later driving the balky
horse, and the animal was going finely
and showing not the least tendency to
stop and consider the question And, not
only did he make his appearance on this
particular occasion. but continued to drive
the horse right along, and got splendid

Auntie's Memory.

From Harper's Weekly.
An old colored woman down in Alabama
was reported to be of great age, and was
extremely proud of the distinction The
proprietor Of a museum, on hearing OF
her, sent one of his agents to make an
investigation, as she would be a valuable
acquisition to his museum. The agent
piled her with questions regarding her
age. He asked her,
"Auntie. do you remember George
Washington
Does l remember George Washington
Laws a massy, mistah, 1 reckon l does

chile
well, I suppose you remember the
Revolutionary war;"
Eyes, indeed, l does. honey I stood dar

'Well, auntie, how about the fall of the
Roman Empire? Do you recollect any
thing about that?"

service out of him, and actually, about
SIX months later, traded back again with
the shrewd horse dealer and got s10O to
boot
This was sufficient to Immediately give
him widespread fame as an expert in the
handling of balky horses, and thew came
in punches.
Two months ago, however, he received
a call to come down to ST. Louis and try
his skill upon one of the most famous
trottong horses of modern times, an ami
NAL formerly worth all the way I'D from
$4,000 to $4,000 but which had within the
last year or so developed an fncurable
balkiness that took nearly all the value
out of him, and which, it was feared.
would by heredity even affect the value
of his offspring.
The owners, a syndicate, had not the
least faith in the prSoosition that DR..
Longbeat could cure him, but offered him
his own price If he would do so. They
gasped however. when he set the fee at
one-third of his supposed value in good
condition, or $4,000. but. the animal hav-
ing no value at all in his present condi-
ton, they agreed to pay that amount IL
the doctor would disclose his form of
treatment to the world at large in case
he was successful.
He agreed to this, and, getting the horse
into balky state-that sullen, angry, inn
movable, angry, broodug condition that
Is characteristic of balky horseshoe went
up to him and gave him a good-sized
hypodermio injection of cocaine. In three
minutes the sullenness died out of the
horses eyes, he began to switch his tail
and look pleasant and soon trotted off
as cheerful and good-natured as any horse
ever was.
The syndicate rejoiced exceedingly to
have their horse good as ever, and
