Ihe Crop the Office Boy Sowed.

Jack was Office boy in the top of a
nineteen-story building. One day he
was sent to the postoffice on an er-
rand which took him to the money or
der department in the big stone build
ing. While standing there awaiting
MS turn and wishing that it was Satur-
DAY afternoon, so that he could go to
see MS cousins in the country and help
them raise crops" he saw an Irish
woman push her way up to another
window and heard her explaining to
the clerk that she wanted to send "tin
dollars to her mother in the "ould
country"
lhe clerk. in no very good humor,
handed her blank; but the woman
only stood and looked at it in a puz-
zled way, and finally made her way
back to the window, repeating: "I
want to send tin dollars to me mother. /"
Well, fill out your blank and come
back here, but not before" was the
sharp reply.
AGAIN the woman stared at the clerk
and then at the blank. She did NOT
know what to do. Just then Jack STEP
ped over to the woman and said.
please let me help you fill that out"
Sure, God bless yer answered she
ana the grateful look which she gave
Jack when it was done made him think
tfat he had sowed crop of something
better than wheat,-human kindness

A Reply to Annie Laurie.

read with much interest the late
letter from Grindal, especially that
portion with reference to astrologers
and their lore. 1t seems surprising
that the valuable information of astrol-
ogers which was gained by obserya-
ton during the past ages and which
has been so long neglected or lost
sight Of is being revived by many at
the beginning of the twentieth century.
l am much interested in that portion
OF astrology which has reference to
the planetary system on the human
body; as regards health, happiness,
prosperity. &c. Have read many books
on the subject; the more we read and
the more we learn of astrology the
more we are convinced of how very
little we can ever know of the great
planetary system which surrounds us.
Astrology must not be confounded
with fortune teilings as it is practiced
by the clarvoyant and mediums OF
the present day. Astrology is a sci
ence,-the Oldest in the world 1t pro-
ceeds upon methods which are the re-
suit OF many ages of accumulated ex-
periences and experiment. The aspect
OF certain planets at the time Of birth
is known to have definite effect up-
on the life OF that person, because it
has been observed in the past that they
did actually have that effect. And n is
thus that the science has been est,b
lished
Its assumptions are strictly positive,
and every human being has the oppor-
tunity of testing its truth and value
by experiment. Parents will find in the
science of astrology valuable and
unerring guide in training and mould
ing the character OF their children.
l will be pleased to see copy OF
the astrological almanac mentioned, or
to learn the address so | might order
one.
| hope Annie Laurie will write often.

accomplishment of making neiphbor-
hood letter interesting.

Buffalo News.

Buffalo, Feb. I3.-I have been for
some time reading The Times and
watching the movement Of things as
given to the public through its col
umns. We see that the State dispen-
sary is about to go, and we hope to
see it soon departing. Let the gentle
zephyrs watt the name and memory Of
the thing to the middle OF the Atlantic
ocean, where it may find burial place
from which it can never be resurrected.
There are other things besides the dis
pensary demanding the attention of the
people of our State land our people
should not center all their thoughts
! upon the strong drink.
There is compulsory education, to
which most of our people are opposed,
but which has made Germany the fore
most nation OF the world from an in
tellcctual point Of view. 1t will give
to any State or country higher grade
OF citizenship. Then we have immigra-
ton, about which so much is being
SAID. All will agree that there is a
time for all things, and this is the time
Tor immigration in our State. Then
we have the race problem, which could
nave been much more easily solved be-
tore the war between the States than
now; but as our fathers failed to grasp
the opportunity, so we may pass it on
to our children, unsolved. Some OF
our good people seem to see nothing
but dark clouds gathering over the
horizon, and forgot the everlasting
promise of Sunshine and rain, and
seed time and harvest; SO long as time
shall last"
But with all the wars and rumors
OF wars, "disturbing the outside world"
the people of Our quiet little town are
unmolested, and peace and quietude
reign here. We have one of the best
mill towns in the State. The men who
are in charge are doing everything they
can tor the prosperity and welfare OF
the people. We have good school
under the supervision OF Prof. Hope,
which is blessing to the place The
Methodist and Baptist churches are
progressing nicely. The mill company.
however, deserves commendation for
what 1t is doing in the way OF coop
Grating with the pastors and churches
IN the endeavor to build up the morals
OF the town.
