Get to be a booster,
Crow like a rooster;
Gather all of 'em in.
Get a hustle all thru,
Show what you can do
Helpin' your fellow men.

Get ready now for the biggest revi-
val In interest in the local meetings
that we have ever had The longer
nights of the winter will be of advant-
age. There are thousand and one
things that should have attention and
they should have it now. There is
world of vital matters that need careful
going over. The subject of seed for
next year should have the first atten-
ton, for in no other department of his
work has the farmer been more ne9-
lectful than in that of selecting the
seed best adapted to his conditions.
The advance made in the lines of hors-
es, cattle, hogs and poultry, ETC.. are
simply marvellous, but the foundation
Of all these lines, the food for them,
has been neglected sadly. When it l.
well known that improved seed will
do as much for the farmer as improv-
ed breeds have done. it is incompre-
hensible that no progress has been
made in that direction. The tree II
kir can come along and reap a harvest
on some sort of wonderful new kind
of fruit that is going to revolutioniZe
the business, but when it comes to get
ting better sort of corn, the situation
closes up suddenly. There are other
lines that need looking after, but this
is the most vital at this time and
should have immediate attention.

The telephone.

Rural telephones are boon to the
farmers. They can keep in close touch
with the markets, and all the doings
of the outside world. One the uses
that the phone can be well put to, is
the getting of late market news from
the home town. There are very few
farmers who cannot use the telephone
with profit during the marketing sea-
son.

No Menace to Any Nation.

ut is just starting on a trip around the
American continent which has startled
the world. AS far as I can see there is in
that trip no menace to any nation; no
people may regard it as an unfriendly
action. But I thank God that the time
has not come and never will come when
this nation must needs ask any nation
on the earth where we shall send our
ships"
There was no northern army the
speaker asserted 1T was the army of
the Union" in which he fought and in
which hundreds of thousands of other
southern men fought. They fought not
against their own section of the >oun-
try, but to preserve the Union"

Should your majesty appear brave

people your majesty can still count on
their enthusiasm and devotion"
Eugene resolved to show herself on
horseback. She ordered that the rid.
ing habit be chosen. 1t must be all
black. of the seYerest simplicity. And
she would just pin the red ribbon of
the Legion of Honor ON her left breast.
Often the slightest causes bring
about the gravest results. The tragedy

The Way Tiny Spider Imprisoned

zone morning when busy In my
workshop" says a naturalist, "a large
fly, double the size Of bluebottle. was
caught In spiders web in the win
dow close to where l was at work. 1t
was held by two of its legs only. and
for some time the spider. which was
about the size of the fy's head. pro-
ceeded to strengthen Its hold by at
taching numerous extra lines to the
two captive limbs. carefully keeping
out Of reach of the others. which were
letting out in all directions in frantic
efforts to escape.
During short respite in the cap
tive's struggles the spider cautiously
approached and with its hind legs got
several turns of Its tiny rope round
one of the limbs that were free. These
tactics were carried on till all the legs
were firmly bound. 1t then injected
poison into one of the legs. This soon
showed itself. for its deadenlng effects
reduced the victims struggles In
marked degree. The poison paralyzes.
but does not kill.
Shortly after a second bite resist
ance ceased. and the victor settled
down to suck the juices of its fallen
prey. The struggles lasted quite an
hour. Next morning the fy was alive.
and the spider was still sucking out its
llfeblood. "-Chicago News.

Dshornins a Rhinocoros.

A rhinoceros which lived in the Lon
don zoo was troubled by its horn,
which grew down in front of its mouth
so that only with difficulty could it eat
or drink. To save its life the keeper
decided on amputation. The horn Of a
rhinoceros is not a horn at all, but an
accumulation of hair and skin which
has hardened and become cemented to-
gether by some gummy substance. The
owner Of this one had a very touchy
temper and was not easily approached.
Its keeper, however, decided to try
what he could do. For some days 1t re-
quired all his skill to persuade the
beast to come to the front of the cage
and put its horn through. Then for
some days he stroked the horn, much to
the animals disgust at first, although
later it seemed to like it. When it
found he meant no harm it let him take
the horn in his left hand and then with
the right initiate the motion Of saw
across it. When this had been done
some time and the rhinoceros no longer
minded it, piece of wood was held in
the right hand, and at last, when even
this no longer worried the animal, A
real saw was brought in and the horn
cut OF without the slightest remon-
STRANGE from the owner of it.

at seems to me that comparatively

power Of her own-takes away some
necessary exhilaration that is the lu-
bricating oil In those cogwheels of
continuous effort. Yet this very wom-
an will not realize the effect Of her
own attitude ON her husband-how
much of his motive business power is
taken from him for the day because
the hours In which he should have
been rested and cheered have been
filed with complalnings and lamenting
over situations which were not his to
cope with and problems which he can
not work out"

THOUGHTS FOR GIRLS.

Your mother Is your best friend.
Tell the pleasantest things you know
when ut meals.
Do not expect your brother to be as
dainty as girl.
Have nothing to do with girls who
snub their parents.
Exercise and never try to look as II
you were in delicate health.
Introduce every new acquaintance to
your mother as soon as possible.
Enjoy the pleasures provided for you
by your parents to the fullest extent.
Most fathers are Inclined to overIn-
dulge their daughters. Make 1t i'm
possible for your father to spoil you
by fairly returning his affection and
devotion.
Do not quarrel with your brother,
do not preach to him, and do not cod
die him. Make him your friend, and
do not expect him to be your servant
or let him expect you to be his.
