thirty years ago, marked him for
something better.
Then Progress stepped in. Adyertis-
ing was beginning to lay hold of
America. Not content with the news
papers and handbills, the painted sign
was instituted. Hifderbrandt became
a sign painter. There's nothing really
artistic in sign-pasnting, think most
people, but the boy worked hard, and
studied and painted with all the enthu-
siasm he might, upon the rough pine
boards of the stand" And, during
that time he saved money. At its best,
si"n-painting is wen-paid profession,
although it might not appeal to him OF
artistic temperament"
Along In the latter part Of the SOS,
Hilderbrandt had saved sufficient
money to accomplish his great pur-
,pese-to study in Paris. He had no
desire TO merely become a loiterer
in LIE Quartier-he wanted to paint.
And he did. For several years he
worked, and worked, and worked.
About 1895, when the decision was
rendered at the annual salon exhibit,
the Associated Press dispatches men
toned that Howard Logan Hilder-
brandt had been awarded the Grand
Prix
Then he returned home. Since that

He is not famous. Few, if any, maga-
zine articles have been written about

who have been made popular idols by
the publication of their works in mag
azines and periodicals and 81 and $1.50
reproductions, which are found in
every "art' store
But Hilderbrandt is a splendid ex-
ample of one of the many Americans
who go TO make UP the vanguard of
those who will some day stand for
American art, as against that of Eu-
rope, America is young In art. 1t is
at dts commercial zenith, but has
reached only the primer in the study
of art and it's products Some day it,
too, will have graduated in art, and
when it does, the excellence of it's pro-
duction will be due to such men as Hill
debrandt, who worked and were not
satisfied with the glamor and quick
pay" of magazine illustrating, but
preferred the dry crusts of priVation
and the ultimate perfection in accom-
p!ishment, which comes only to him
who works.

Tonight Dear Heart, the storm cloud lowers;
The wind sweeps apaee
AS l sit by the dying embers
And look thy pictur'd face
And scenes from the past that was thine and mine
Shift before .ny steadfast gaze
i stretch my in passion Of longing.
Towards the Pickering blaze.
WeirdIy the windows rattle, like footsteps
Is the pattering rain.
With supphant prayer, / call 20 thee,
And nay cry is not IN vain.
For out of the hanging darkness comes
that thou near:
Not a spectre, with graveyard ceFements,
Nor a gaunt grey ghost to fear.
But only a love tTanscendent-living,
Enfoldng like cloud;
And spirits sweet communing
1t is not tangible presence
Made known by touch or word,
But a heaven transported consciousness
When the spirit voice is heard.
Leaning forward, peer through the shadow:
Thy presence gives sign.
Yet responsive. thy spiritheart throbs
In unison with mine.
And belcv;d, above the raging nightstorm,
More d Ninct than falling rain,
In the silence that redgns in our chamber,
hear thy voice again

Lice on Hogs.

H. NJ. Cottrell in "News Notes"
published by the State Agriculture
college has the following to say regard
ing lice on hogs:
Whenever a pig has good feed and
surroundings and is not thriving, look
for lice. Vernin will usually be found
to be the cause Of the lack of thrift. A
great many of the losses laid to cholera,
worms and mysterious diseases are
actually the work Of lice.
The best cure and preventive is
regular dipping, using some Of the coal
tar dips SO extensively advertised and.
Sold. When pigs are found to be lousy,
dip twice, ten days apart, and then
once d month through the year. Dip
ping with coal tar dips not only kills
the vermin, but keeps the skin and
hair in q healthful condition that is
worth the cost Of the operation aside
from killing the lice.
The most convenient method is to
sink a galvanized iron vat, the top
level with the ground, and leave a
shute leading from the hog lot to the
vat apd another from the dipping
board to the lot.
The dipping mixture can be kept in
the vat all the time and be protected
by cover when hogs are not being
dipped. With such an arrangement it
is short and easy Job to dip SO to 200
hogs. The dipping mixture will need
to be changed three or four times a
yeaf. .
In Colorado it Is safe to dip in winter
if done on a warm, sunny day and the
hogs nre kept in the sun and out of the
wind, until dry. :, ~
When only a few pigs ere Kept they
/ may be treated by washing them
thoroughly with a cloth or sponge wet
with the dipping solution.
Besides dipping, the hogs should
have short posts set for. them in Their
yards and pastures. Wrap the, posts
with old potato or bran sacks and once
4 a week saturate these sacks with crude
oil. A louise bites the hog, he nibs. the
spot ON the sack and the Gil kills the
louse,
1 When hogs are found to be lousy
their sleeping, feeding and resting
Il tplaees should be thoroughly cleaned
al bedding burned and these place:

ONcB a muddled congressman
inquired helplessIy, "Mr. Speaker,
where are we at!" Oregon echoes
the query. For Oregon has a
Republican Legislature, which will
be compelled to elect Democratic
United States senator. At the
recent election the state went Re-
publican on everything but United
States senator. There was direct
primary vote on that Office and
Governor Chamberlain, Democrat,
received plurality of the vote.
1t will be as interesting to see the
Republican representatives voting
for him as it would to see Demo
Gratis voting for Republican if the
conditions were reversed. Sugges-
tions of "ways out" for the embar-
tassed law makers have been made,
but none show how the difficulty
can be avoided without dishonor.
After all, why should not the
people choose their senator as free
ly as they choose their other public
servants, even if the choice does
create peculiar situations such as
this one?-Epworth Herald.

The Spirit Of Truth.

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of
truth, and his Office is to lead us into
all truth. Christians have no reason to
be afraid Of any new truth. 1t seems
amusing now to think that men once
believed that the whole fabric of the
Christian faith would be overthrown if
1t could be proven that the earth was
round, instead of fiat, or that 1t revolved
around the sun, instead of being the
center of the solar system. Science,
falsely so-called," has made many a
blunder, but the truths of science are
one with the truths Of the Bible. All
are Gods.

a trip to the head of Bear creek Mon

Steady-going goodness is harder than
spectacular heroism. 1t calls for more
endurance and more character to hold
to the highest standards Of life in the
commonplaces of everyday routine
than to nerve ones self up for a single
and exceptional effort. The five mile
run is more exhausting than the hun
dred-yard dash. Yet, this prolonged
and severer test of everyday living Is
the only true test, and it is the one
which we must all meet. Moreover,
the best way to be ready for the emer-
gency test, when it comes, Is to live
through the common day in the red
letter-day spirit. No day was common
to Christ, nor will 1t be to those who
make every day his.
