Dear Sir: No man is In a po.ition to

Pity, il you dou't know how to keep a
house dry and sound, any sort OF

fence, except rail; with paint.
What pant? The paint II at takes
least gallons; for paint costs money,
and putting it on costs twice as much
as the paint.
That is short; but that's all; it in
cIudes the rest. One paint wears long
another wears short ;but the one that
wears long is the least-galcn paint;
least-gallons means pure and strong and
most-gallons means adulterated and
weak, besides small gallons.
Paint rs one Of the biggest interests

Little Thelma Agnes, infant

Hamilton, was called from earth tC
heaven on March 3rd, 1907, aged
fifteen months and four days, after
an illness Of only three days.
She was a beautiful, bright child
and the hearts Of her fond parents
were bound up in their sweet, win.
some baby girl. Now are their
hearts torn and bleeding, and sadly
they miss their little darling. We
can only commend them to the low
ing Saviour for comfort who, Will e
on this earth, took little children in
His arms and said: Suffer the lit
tie children to come unto me and
forbid them not, for of such is the
Kingdom of God.''
She has entered the beautiful city
Ana we know she : at rest,
Now free from pain and sorrow
We know, Lord, it is best.
But oh, our hearts are breaking,
And we long for glimpse once
more
OF the one gone forever,
Who has entered the open do r.
In thy infinite love and mercy
Teach IS to say, "Well done;
Gi e strength to bear our sorrow
To thee, dear Lord, we come.
We come as little children
With wounded hearts and sore;
Oh. Father! pity and help us
Forever, evermore.

A BUNCH or ROSES.

At a regatta on Lake Lucerne the
whole surface Of the lake was strewed
with roses.
The rose has through all time been
the symbol Of the purity and charm of
girlhood.
Spartan soldiers after the battle Of
Cirrha refused offerings of wine unless
1t was perfumed with roses.
The rose seems to have long been
the symbol Of silence. 1t has been
suggested that the utter inability to
set forth the charms Of the rose has
admonished to silence
Sweet as the fragrance of a garden
is the Persian fable Of the lump Of
clay which gave to the air a perfume
that foated over the garden walls of
fair Iran. IT have been dwelling with
roses" said the clay.
In Bulgaria and Roumania, which
are great centers for the manufacture
Of altar of roses, damask roses are ex-
clusively used. These are gathered at
dawn, just as the buds begin to unfold,
and the essence is distilled from them
before the sun sets.-Circle.

them during each day. He also adopt

In youth Franklin happened to read
Aenophon's description Of the Socratic
method, and it made lasting impress

the dogmatic way Of making state

wise old Athenian. To this habit of

Franklin ascribed much of his later
success as writer and diplomat.
He ran away from Boston while a
mere STRIPPING, yet before he left he
had read every book on which he could
lay his hands. He even went without
his lunches with the twofold object of
having more time in which to read and
OF having more money to spend for
books.
Franklin's first notable success was

introduced him everywhere as bis son.
