Saving the Glover.

1t is failing Of the American farm
er when a blade of grass or a stem of
clover makes a strong showing to try
to turn it into beef, mutton or pork.
In this effort to utilibze 1t he entirely
forgets that the plant may need a little
winter protection. He does not under
stand how little is often sufficient to
save the plant from frost. destruction.
Where the clover is not pastured it is
often allowed to perfect its seed, which
is as fatal to the crop next year as the
winter freezing. Clipping would save
the crop where it is so forward as to
bloom and perfect seed.-Rural New
Yorker

HEART TROUBLE.

By Rev H. M Wharton, D. D.
Text-'Let not your heart be trou-
bled; We believe in God, believe also In
me."-John IA Il.
In the early days Of my ministry L
was pastor of a village church. One
day mother came to me and said she
had daughter, young lady, who had
been confined to her bed with spinal
disease for three years. That she was
very nervous and could not stand ex-
citement, but she was not Christian
and wished me to come and preach a
short sermon beside her bed.
rose to take my text, when the sick
lady said: eff you have no decided
preference as to my text, l have one
l would like you to preach from. Let
not your heart be troubled we believe"
in God, believe also in me.
1 launched out by remarking that
all of us have our troubles.
Too much trouble rises right out Of
our heart How sin pains us! How
anxious we are about our salvation!
But there is a remedy for this trouble
1t never fails. No matter how long
standing or deep-seated the disease,
this remedy will reach the case 1t is
Jesus. He made the heart and knows
it's every Ill.
Now how shall the unfailing remedy
be applied? BY faith. Believe IN the
Lord Jesus Christ and he will cure
your heart, no matter what the trou-
BILE is. Just put your trust In him. He
will make your bed in sickness; he will
quiet your nerves and help you to have
patience; he will forgive your sins and
save your soul and bye-and-bye he will
tell you why you had to suffer and
show you that it was all right and all
for the best.
So ended my little sermon and went
away Some time afterwards, she was
brought into my church one day in an
invalid chair. After the services were
over I went down to speak to her. She
was sweetly trusting her Savior and
dated her conversion to the visit and
talk from her text at her bedside

SENTENCE SERMONS

The thoughtful always are thankful.
The selfish feast shows the famished
heart.
Whatever lifts up the heart enlarges
the life.
The income Of the heart depends on
its outgo
You never can reach a dignity by
leaping over a duty.
Good will to man is the best kind
Of gratitude to God.
The Lord never forgets the man who
forgets himself.
No man lives who does not get some
new life every day.
Nothing makes one more tired than
living only for rest
No man ever prayed who did all his
praying on his knees.
There is one through road to heaven;
it is by the doors of needy humanity.
The man who thinks he has a patent
on piety never goes into It's manufac-
ture
A feeling heart enriches the world
much more than the fur hand with
out it.
The man who loves himself exclu-
sively always has room to give sin a
lodging.
If you would have any blessings to-
count you must count the blessings you
have.
Folks who advertise their troubles.
never are willing to part with them at
any price.
When you pray for easy clrcum-
stances it may be you only are asking
to have the track creased on the up
grade
You will as soon make your fortune.
by repeating the multiplication table as
make yourself Il saint by repeating the
ten commandments.

"THE WILL OF YOUR FATHER"

BY Rev. J. G. Greenhough, A. M.
Text-"Even SO, it is not the will Of
your Father which is in heaven that
one of these little ones should perish"
Matthew Is IA.
A thousand things are put down to
Gods will which are mans wicked
doings; and it Is blasphemy to call it
Gods will when men pollute and defile
and destroy the sweetest Of His gifts.
1t is not Gods will that children should
be eglected-allowed to die. Has He
not planted in the human heart the
very instincts of fatherhood and moth
erhood which should have prevented all
that? 1t Is not Gods will that sinners
should be cast out, left alone, forsak-
en-: it Is mans hard, selfish, cruel ma
ture that does that. It is not Gods
will that a healthy and cultured society
should live in luxury and splendor,
careless of the squalor and misery that
reek in crowded dens within few
hundred yards Of their mansions. That
is mans self1shness and not Gods Or
dering. The voice of the Eternal Is al
ways reminding us that we are our
brothers keepers, and that what we
do to the least of these we are doing
unto Him.
And, above all things, it is not Gods
will that few elect people should con-
stitute His church and regale them
selves with His love and promises ev-
cry Sabbath day, while sheep outside
are perishing, unloved, untaught, and
unsought. His word to each disciple is
IF thou lowest me, feed my sheep as
l have sought thee, go thou and seek
them" Many, many are perishing but
Father is always charging us not to let
them perish. 1t is the selfshness Of

1t may not be generally known, but
many twig diseases Of trees are spread
by the pruning tools. One very sue
cessful nurseryman dips his pruning
knives and saws in solution
of carbolic acid before beginning to
prune another tree so If any germs
are on the tool this treatment will de-
stroy them. AS soon as a wound is
made it is a good Idea to disinfect and
paint 1t to keep out the moisture There
Is danger Of trees contracting disease,
as the germs enter the wounds and dis
eased places result, or the exposed parts
will begin to decay as soon as the mofS-
ture gets a hold.-Apple Specialist.

How to Pack Apples.

Two layers of fruit should be placed
in the bottom of a barrel, with stems
down and as close together as possible.
These will form the facing, for this end
will be the top when opened. Fill in
with the same grade, shake often, and
when near the top put in two more
LAYERS with stems up, letting the last
LAYER stand a full inch above the chine
of the barrel. Now put on the lid and
slowly press into place, shaking the
barrel in the meanwhile.-Farm Jour-

man, the heedlessness Of the rich, the
brutality of the strong, the very indif-
ference Of the church which, Cainlike
recognizes no obligations of brother
hood-these are making men perish;
these are the things which are defeat
ing Gods purpose. But over and above
all this comes the Word of Jesus which
assures us that God wishes to save all,
which bids the church be alive to its
sacred commission, and requires all
men to whom much has been given to
share in the redeemers anxiety.

Beans Fed to Swine.

Beans can be med to swine only In
the cooked form. The pig seems to be
unable to utilize beans which are at
all hard or firm, even though they have
been boiled for some time; hence 1t Is
very essential that they be thoroughly
and carefully cooked, says r. S. Shaw
Michigan. To supply single feed OF
half-cooked beans to a pen of hogs robs
them Of their appetites and relish for
their food, If indeed it does not put
them off their feed.
