The Value of Education.

The president of one of the minor col
leges was sauntering down shady lane
one day in the early summer when he
met a tall, handsome youth.
This youth had just been graduated.
He was very poor and very intelligent.
In all his courses he had taken honors,
and in athletics also great honors had
been his

HYMNS YOU OUGHT TO KNOW
Your Own Work.


II You cannot on the ocean
Sail among the swiftest fleet,
Rocking on the highest pillows,
Laughing at the storms you meet.
You can stand among the sailors,
Anchored yet within the bay,
You can lend a hand to help them,
AS they launch their boat away.
Ii you are too weak to journey
Up the mountain steep and high,
You can stand within the valley,
While the multitude go by;
You can chant in happy measure,
AS they slowly pass along;
Though they may forget the singer,
They will not forget the song.
If you have not gold end silver
Ever ready to command;
If you cannot toward the needy
Reach an ever open hand,
You can visit the afflicted,
Der the erring you can weep:
You can be true disciple
Sitting at the Savior's feet.
IL you cannot in the harvest
Garner up the richest sheaf,
Many grain both ripe and golden
Will the careless reapers leave;
Go and CLEAN among the briers,
Growing rank against the wall,
For it may be that the shadow
Hides the heaviest wheat Of all.

SHORT METER SERMONS.

To defer a right determination is to
make wrong one.
The acid of envy eats ont all happl-
ness from the heart.
You cannot get high moral tone out
of loose muscular wires.
There is no complete understanding
of duty until it is completed.
The man who borrows trouble is
little better than the one who mases 1t.
When the wage is the end the work
loses much, bat the worker loses more.
When we confess to our own faults
usually we are thinking Of our neigh
boris.

1t Is thought we cannot escape; the
all wise must be the all loving. The
spirit at the center of all must en-
brace all within the circle of his love !;
and that love will not lie quiescent,
helpless when its objects are In distress,
In perplexity, or need, when it might
sl1ccor, save or suggest the way of sue
cess. If there is heart of love there
Is hand Of help.
Yet it seems too great a thought.
What are we but dust on the wheels
of the universe? Often do our faint
ing hearts question whether there be
any, outside our own little circle, who
care whether we suffer, whether we
succeed. Can 1t be that the pelty af-
fairs of life that passes like the boar
frost before the morning sun can even
interest, still less call forth the aid, uf
the one In whom we all live and move
and have our being?
Despite all questlonings men will ever
go on praying to that enc; they will
seek a heart that feels, and look for
hands reached out In hours of neces.
sity. Experience indorses their faith.
Nearly all can look back and see where
destiny has seemed to breathe upon
them; their OLD plans wilted, and new
ones, new ways sprung up. bearing 9th
er and fairer flowers than they had
ever dreamed; mighty, mysterious
power had INTERVIEWED.
What does 1t all mean? That we are
but puppets in these strange unseen
hands; that we can neither will nor
work for ourselves? No; it but means
what poets sang long ago when, seek
Ing after that which far transeends all
thought and all imagery, they cried,
Surely thou art our father" That
which was best in them, the holy fire
of fatherhood, became a mirror in
which they saw the infinite.
From the source of all life, humanity
has learned the great lessons of family
care and provision. All that is good in
our families is true of this great family
of all mankind. The great purpose OF
this family, as of all families, is the de-
velopment of the highest, fullest life IN
its members. Fatherhood regards the
provision of food, clothing and shelter
but as incidental to the great purpose
of training the children.
This Is the purpose of the father of
us all, the develop the best in us. When
our weak hearts cry for ease, for rest,
for pleasures, he sends the task, the
sorrow, the loss. When we think all
life's lessons well learned he sends us
up to higher grades with harder tasks.
Yet ever over all Is the plying, compass
sionate yearnings of a fathers heart
that never forgets the weakness of the
child.
Wisely the fathers love seems to hide
it's working. Like all things deep and
sublime. 1t passes comprehension it
may often seem like Indifference. All
the child can do is TO bend every effort
to do his best. TO work out the fathers
plan so far as he knows 1t, to know,
through all, that God is good. Then,
when the child grows to the man, the
man toward the divine, the things that
seemed strange are made plain in the
light OF the fathers face.

The kitchen should be ventilated
many times day. certainly at all
times of cooking. Reeking odors OF hot
foods should be given speedy outlet for

90 BUSHELS OF OATS TO THE
ACRE.
What Mr.. Kaltenbrunner Has to
Say About His Grain Crops In

What Brr. Knltenbrunner Has TO
Say About His Grain Crops in
Central Canada.
Writing from Regina, Saskatche-
wan, Central Canada, Mr.. A. Kalten-
Drummer writes:
Some years ago | took up home
stead for myself, and also one for my
son. The half section which we own
adjoins the Moose Jaw Greek is low,
level and heavy land. We put in 20
acres Of wheat IN stubble. which went
20 bushels TO the acre, and 80 acres of
summer fallow, which went 25 bushels
to the acre. All the wheat we harvest
ed this year is No. hard. That means
the best wheat that can be raised on
the earth. We did not sell any wheat
yet, as we intend to keep one part for
our own seed, and sell the other part
to people who want first class seed.
for there is no doubt IL you sow good
wheat you will harvest good wheat.
We also threshed 1900 bushels of first
class oats out OF 160 acres; so acres
has been fall blowing, which yielded 80
bushels per acre, and so acres stubble,
which went 80 bushels to the acre.
These oats are the best kind that can
be raised. We have shipped three car
loads OF them, and got SO cents per
bushel clear. All our grain was cut
In the last week OF the month of Au-
gust before any frost could touch it.
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had late spring, and that the
weather conditions this year were very
adverse and unfavorable. we will make
more money out Of our crop this year
than last.
For myself l feel compelled to say
that Western Canada crops cannot be
checked, even by unusual conditions. .
