Mike. F."

The wandering gardener that drifted
into my place at the beginning of the
summer, along with the birds and the
hoboes that sift into the country as
soon as the days grow warm, has
taught me some new things in human
nature.
The only name he answers to Is
Mike, but as he was born in Rhode
Island and is as much of a Yankee as
an lrishman. | cannot determine
whether the original baptismal for
mula of that abbreviation was Michael
or Misaac
In addition to his other good works
Mike has endeared himself to the goats
by talking to them in a dialect they
understand and by carrying them
green and tender branches several
times each day. In consequence they
know even the dents in his old and
battered hat and call to him half way
across the place, crying in that pene-'
trating and mournful note that makes
the voice of the goat nearly half hui
man and more than half diabolic.
To the little girl Mike tells stories
Of the Mother Fairy that has her home.
In the secondhand wilderness at the.
upper end Of the little slanting farm.
The boys he teaches TO fish and set
traps and, when they think 1t is not
work, to pull weeds.
The love of children and of dumb
things, like charity, is sufficient to
cover a multitude of sins, of which
Mike also has his inherited and &C.
quired share.
There is his wanderlust that has
made him tramp most Of the dry parts
Of the earth and, not content with

How I Got the Don't Worry Habit.

| have learned since l lived with the
soul of things that people do not need
to be unhappy unless they desire to be.
All this is good if rightly seen and
rightly placed. God is actually run
There is satisfaction In a thought like
that
| used to be disturbed about the way
the world is being managed. I thought
God was off the job every now and
then, that things were going wrong
and that the politicians had to make
them right. Now I have come to the
conclusion that a competent engineer
is in charge, and am not so much
worried
Understand me, l believe that God
works through people and that we
must stand true to him, true to our
soul impulses, true to righteousness to
liberty and to humanity But there is
no need of losing sleep about the uni
verse going to the demnition bow
vows "s
1t is like this: 1 used to watch a
gang of men doing some gigantic work
building a railroad or erecting a
building-and every now and then [.
became disturbed with the thought
that they were not doing in it the
right way. Then 1 reasoned with my
self in this wise: The man in charge
of that job knows more about 1T than
1 do. He is experienced and takes
every part of the work into considera-
ton. He is not making a mistake, and
there is no occasion for me to bother
my head about it. It was a comfort
ing conclusion.
l am part of the social machine,
and to that extent my responsibility
goes and no further. In public mat
tiers 1 am legitimately interested.
There | owe M duty to my country

Moonlight and Mysticism.

What is there about the moon that
makes people think about love and
ghosts, eternity and ininity and other
pleasantly uncanny things?
Sometimes when l see the moon
shining across the broad river l feel
a million years old. l get a real
shivery sensation that / have seen
that same moon with other eyes and in
other lands before the Sphinx lost her
nose.
Now, that is no way for twentieth
century man with a good digestive ap-
paratus to feel
What is the connection between
moonlight and mysticism? Any one
who thinks he can explain is welcome
to try.

An Experiment.

l never heard of transplanting pota-
toes, which of course is no indication
that 1t has not been done. At any rate,
L know it has now been done, and sue
cessfully, and that by Il tramp gar
dener that fell into my place one day
when | particularly needed him. He
did not fall from heaven, however, but
from the river road. which is very
different thing. Any one who knows
anything about river roads will appre-
ciate how different
Before the advent of the tramp gar
dener l had a man who knew every
thing-eXcept how to garden. This
mans Omniscience was only equaled
by his mendacity, as is apt to be the
case. A knOw-it-all is nearly always a
liar. He has to be to keep up his rep
utatiOn.
This man planted the potatoes when
no one was looking and got two rows
where one ought to be. A man who
makes two blades of grass grow where
one grew before may be a benefactor,
but a man who makes two rows of DO
tatoes grow where there is room for
only one should be called a shorter and
ug1ier name. At any rate, when those
potatoes came up that is what the man
in question was called.
Later on the tramp gardener sized
up the situation. He never had heard
of transplanting potatoes either, but
that did not discourage him. He first
prepared another plot of ground and
carefully dug holes large enough for
the hills. Then, a hill at a time, he
carefully took up every other row Of
the potatoes and removed them to
these new hills. This he did by insert
ing his shovel deep under the entire
hill, lifting it so as not to disturb the
roots. AS a result every hill kept
green, and that part of the potato
patch now looks as well as the other.
1t remains to be seen whether it will
bear as well, but l see no reason why
it should not. If it does, some weeks
of time will be saved, to say nothing
of the seed potatoes, and that tramp
gardener will be entitled to pat him
self on the back.

This is a universe Of exact justice.
Were that not true it could not exist.
Injustice simply means incomplete
justice, and no incomplete thing can
be permanent. Only that which is
whole and perfect is durable If there
could exist one wrong not ultimately
righted, the orderly course of things
would be disturbed and the destruction
of all would inevitably result.

There are a great many phases OF

sistance of the surgeon.
But by far the greatest number of
such cases are amenabIe to correct

A vast multitude of women have been

their sex through the use of Peruna as
prescribed by DR.. Hartman.

Of the country relating to subjects of

OF the vast multitude of women DR..
Hartman treats annually, only small
per cent. of them consider it necessary

While it Is not affirmed that Peruna
will relieve every case Of this kind, it is
certainly the part of wisdom for every
woman so afflicted to give Peruna q
fair trial.
