THE RISE OF 4 BOY.

This boy goes to his business,
and does the things he is told to
do in a common and ordinary way.
If he stops here he will remain all
his life long common drudge.
But if he begins to see that busin-
ess means something; that there
is more in it than merely sweeping
store, or doing errands, or wrap
ping goods; if he begins to see
that business is greater instru-
ment of benehcence than that we
usually call benehcence; that trade
is clothing and feeding thousands
W here charity feeds tens; if he be-
gins to see how the whole world
is by it linked together, and that
it is Gods way of building up hu-
man helpfulness and serving hui
man needs; if he gets and enters
into this larger view, his efficiency
is increased, his life is enriched,
and he becomes a promising pupil
in the university which trains for
not only the highest business sue
cess, but for usccess in the solu-
ton Of all the higher problems of
existence.

One person in a house who has
a lofty conception of God and pure
ideals OF life can lift the whole
family to that level, just as the
leader of an orchestra strikes a
ringing key note to which every
musician conforms until the har-
mony is perfect. A stranger enter
ing a household knows whether
the key note there is high or low.
There are houses, aflluent in wealth
and culture, where the discords
are incessant, and the conceptions
of life are all pitched on the bass
key. No symphony can compare
with the uplifting harmonies of the
daily life in a family Of gentle
words and noble conduct.

COMMON LOT OF ALL MANKIND.
Who ls There Among Us Who Can
Escape from Worry7

Calmness and serenity are recon-
mended for almost everything in these
days. Horace Fletcher considers
these qualities even more important
than chewing, in the attainment of
health. The beauty doctors say that
no cosmetics will avail to prevent
wrinkles and preserve youth without
calmness and serenity, and they are
said to be the most potent of all
charms in her who would be pleasing
to the opposite sex. "Be serene,
sweet maid" says the authorities;
"let who will be vivacious."
1t all sounds very simple, but in
order to follow such advice it would
be necessary to be hermit, and then
what would be the use of being well
or beautiful or attractive? How can
anyone be serene who plays golf, or
has cantankerous relatives, who wants
to argue about woman suffrage or re-
ligion, or who has not sure and GER
tain and adequate income? Man that
Is born of woman is born to worry, as
the sparks fly upward, and it is only
adding irritation to his other woes
to tell him that all good things may
be his If he will only be serene.

SAVE WIDoWERs FROM SHARES.
Elderly Colonel Advocates Passage
of Most Stringent Law.

The crash of cannon turned the old
colonels thoughts toward death.
Il know of three millionaire septua-
genarian widowers," he said, gloomily
whose sons killed them because they
were about to marry young girls of
20 or so. 1t is very dangerous thing
for rich old man to marry young
girl.
Were l legislator, I'd propose a
new law, a law to protect Gobsa Code
or Potter Roxe, with their rs years,
their millions and their vigilant, mid
dle-aged, grasping sons and daughters,
from the peril of wedding some beau
tiful creature of 10 or 10 summers.
"This law should say simply that no
man over IS, if he married a woman
more than Is years younger than him
self, could leave his wife a cent of his
property nor could he-lest in his life
time he make transfers to her-handle
after his marriage any part of his es-
tate save only the income"
The colonel chuckled rather sadly.
Such law" he said, would do
much to prevent so many pretty girls
from falling in love with us grizzled,
tottering capitalists"

INDUCING FRUITFULNEss.
Judicious Pruning Will Increase the
Fruit Buds.

Horticulturists have for many years
practiced various methods to induce
fruitfulness and with some degree of
success. All these methods, as grid
ling the trunk, root pruning and sum
mer pruning of the branches tempo
rarily check the growth of the tree,
and the consequent slow growth in
duces the formation of fruit buds.
says w. Paddock. 1t is well known that
the buds which produce fruit in any
particular season were formed the
season before, and their formation is
believed to begin early in the grow
ing season. This being true, the time
is now at hand for such work; if put
off much later in the season, it will be
too late, as the time for the forma-
ton of fruit buds for next years crop
will soon be passed.
By root pruning is meant that a
small portion of the roots are cut off,
and the operation may be performed
with spade or in any way which is
best suited to individual needs.
Summer pruning takes the place of
the annual winter pruning, and is the
same in most respects except that 1t
Is done in June instead of winter or
early spring.
Girdling or ringing consists in re-
moving a ring of bark from the trunk
or larger limbs. This ring is some
times two inches or more in width;
all the bark within this space is re-
moved, thus exposing the wood. This
method of checking growth, though
often employed, is rather drastic and
should be used with caution. A more
rational method is to girdle the branch
or trunk by cutting through to the
wood by making one continuous cut
and not removing any of the bark.
Some authorities state that the prop
er time to check the growth of a tree
in order to induce the formation of
fruit buds is at the time when the
bark begins to set on the new growth.

The Japanese did a graceful act in
raising and dedicating monument to
the Russians who fell in defending
Port Arthur. This tribute of generous
foes to brave enemies should go far
toward removing asperlties. If any re-
MAN. Russia went into the war with
rather lofty notions as to the inferior
ity of the Japanese as fighters, a mis-.
take which was quickly perceived.
Japan made no such false step. The
mikado's soldiers and sailors believed
they had their work cut out for them,
and that II would not be boys play.
They met the test in splendid shape.
While they won they at no time
showed other than a tolerant spirit.
The testimonial to the fallen Russians
is In line with the magnanimity shown
to Russian prisoners during the war.
There is reason to believe that many
of the czar's subjects who enjoyed
Japanese hospitality under such cir
cumstances had the time OF their lives.

or three-quarter inch lumber. The
shelves have either small grooves
ploWed in them or small half rounds
nailed on the rear portion of them for
holding the plates in an upright posi-

hooks for the cups, ETC., are placed
where desired, also the shelves, and
the size of the plates must regulate

families have one or more pieces of
