WHY BE LIES TO HIS WIFE.
BY w1NFRED BLACK.

A current magazine takes up some
valuable space discussing the subject
of "Why men never tells the truth
to women.
That's easy enough to answer.
A man never tells woman the
truth if he can help it, because he
hates scene, and he knows he will
get one if he hands her the plain, un-
vanished truth without little pink
string around il to make it look pretty.
Why does a woman tell man the
truth?
Because she knows he will make
scene when she does it, and that's the
very thing she is after.
Men hate heroics.
Women love them.
The best woman on earth would
rather fight with her husband than
sit still and look pleasant while he
reads his paper and forgets all about
her.
The meanest man on earth would
rather smoke his pipe in peace and
think about the fish he didn't catch
last Summer than quarrel with any
woman who ever breathed.
If / had husband who wouldn't
quarrel with me good and hard once
in while, just to show that he cared
whether was cross or not, I'd di-
vorce him and marry Bengal tiger
to get excitement into life.
A woman doesn't hate to hear the
truth from the man she loves any more
than man hates to hear the truth from
the woman he loves-he only hates
the results worse, that's all.
The only time a woman ever does
hear the truth is when some man tells
it to her-her father, her brother, her
husband.
The rest of the world joins in the
conspiracy of fattery that sends many
a poor silly goose peacocking through
life under the impression that she's
swan of royal bearing at the very
least. For a good, sensible woman
with no nonsense about her, commend
me to the woman with brothers.
She's heard the truth about herself
often enough, you may depend upon
it.
Me? Do l like to hear the real
upright and downright no nonsense
about it truth?
Well, er-a-yes, when I'm feeling
just like it.
At all other times l like to have the
people love to say to me in spirit,
"See here, 1 love you SO much let's
pretend I think you're beautiful and
wise and charming ard kind, !" and the
first thing I know I'll be trying my
hardest to be all the things we're "pre-
tending"
Why don't men tell the truth to
women?
Because they dassent.

CHURCH TIME.

AS early as 1859 the Dutch settlers
at Kingston, N. Y, erected with
their own hands little church build
ing and dedicated it the following
year. When regular minister ar
rived from Holland the same year,
writes Mrs. Nellie Urder Wellington
in Historic Chu,cbes of Ame,icG, he
found himself dominic with mem-
bership of but sixteen souls and a
salary paid in wheat, which was then
legal tender among these humble til
lers of the soil.
In 1904 bell was imported and
gave such pleasure to the members of
the little parish that they used it to
announce the hours for meals for the
farmers of the neighborhood.
The observance of one quaint GUS
tom was reminiscent of their former
life in Holland-the announcement
by the gray haired sexton between
the ringing of the first andlast church
bells that the hour for service had ar
rived.
From door 10 door he travelled, rap
ped loudly and cried, "Church time T.
Notices of all kinds, whether of
funerals, christenings, weddings or
merrymakings, were handed first to
the sexton, who in turn gave them to
the clerk, who stuck them on the end
of the bamboo pole which he kept for
that purpose and reached them up to
the dominic.
At the termination of the service,
as in other Dutch churches, the dea-
cons took up the collection with long
poles having little velvet bags hung
on the ends and tinkling bell tc
wake the sleepers to the responsible
ties of a contribution.

TRUE CHEERFULNEss.


True cheerfulness consists in the
utmost tenderness of sympathy, and
with brave facing of all the factsof
life. Physical conditions may help
or hinder it, but they have no power
of themselves to call it into being or
destroy it permanently. 1t is a per-
sistent and habitual attitude of the
mind, clingiug to the sunny side OF
experience, doubt as we'll as life; not
because the sunny side is the more
pleasant, but because of conviction
wrought into the very fiber OF the soul
that the sunshine and the truth are
one, and that the solution of all life's
mystery and the unraveling of all its
tangled skien are only to be found
along that line of thought and life.
This is not merely theory" which
the man has chosen to adopt. 1t is a
conviction, wrought in him by Pow
er outside himself, conviction which
he cannot escape save by doing vio-
lence to all the best within him, con-
viction which he can never fully ex-
plain to other men, but which grows
upon him with the years and will
not let him go.
Of such a conviction no one can
give perfectly satisfactory account.
Much Of its genesis and of its method
must remain a mystery even to the
man himself. Yet there are certain
conditions of life and thought which
every man must fulfllif he is to know
it as his own and to be able in a meas
ure to communicate it to his fellows.
Of thse conditions, there are three
which stand out as most imperative !:
First, the man must be unselhsh.
Second, he must be making an honest
effort to do his work. Third, he
must have an utter belief in the good

STAY ON THE FARM.

That farm life is the independent
life is only to be realized by a short
season of transplanting to the city.
The cramped conditions of the ordi-
nary dweller in fats will soon con-
vince country bred man or woman
that the country is the place. To be
obliged to have the ready cash for
every egg or bit of greens becomes
exasperating. And one trial of board
ing house life is enough to send the
country boy who has ambitions for
the city back to his quiet and peace
full and innocent surroundings. AS
for a girl, it is impossible to think
how one who has home to stay at
should ever dream of giving it pfor
a pitiful clerk shipor Office. Stay on
the farm and make the life there
idealastic. In the state Of Illinois a
movement is said toshave been in
augurated with the view of making
farm life more attractive to the boys.
The idea seems to be to hold farmer
bows conventions and encampments;
to have professions and prizes; to
have addresses by prominent men and
social clubs and lectures showing that
the safest and surest way to a life OF
independence and competence lies in
tilling the soil.
Anything that tends TO keep boys
on the farm is wise movement, and
the suggestion is one which the faith
ers might Go we'll to study. Make
the farm interesting and worth while
to the boy. Farming is noble bus
mess, and it is a mistake whenever a
youth deserts it for cheap job II
town. There are so many things now
which make farming more to be de-
sired as calling than ever before
Educate and organize the boys and
keep them on the farm.

TO THE FORGOTTEN ONES.

Deep in q dell q rose was born;
The sunbeam kissed 1t In the morn.
And IN its cup the dewdrop shone,
But no one came to see 1t bloom.
To breathe its sweetness. its perfume.
And so 1t lived and died unknown.
Deep in the woods bird Of song
Sang in the midnight loud and long,
A nightingale by grief pursued,
A melody so softly clear
AS e'er fell on human ear
Was wasted In the solitude.
But other songs in minor keys
Are falling on the midnight breeze;
And every note shall die unheard;
And there are other eyes that wake,
And other hearts that throb and break,
Without note, without word.
But weep not, tits the common lot
To toll and die and be forgot;
Perhaps in regions bright and fair,
Your hand shall wake the golden chord,
And sing the songs that fell unheard
On ears made deaf by dismal care:

A PLANT THAT COUGHS.

Carnivorous plants are k nown
which will consume even mice /; laugh
ing plants and plants that weep are
also known; but no one has ever
heard of vegetable that suffered
from whooping cough.
There exists, however, a plant
which prospers in tropical countries
and the fruit of which resembles the
common broad bean. 1t is quite a
crank, easily gets into rage, and
what is more peculiar, has horror
of dust.
AS socn as few grains of dust are
deposited on its leaves the stomata or
air chambers which cover their faces
and which are the respiratory organs
of the plant, become filled with a
gas, swell and end by driving out the
gas with a slight explosion and q
sound which resembles so much the
cough of child suffering from cold
as to be mistaken for it.
1t serves as an ornamental plant
One can imagine the concert thai
would be furnished by two or three
! of these strange plants in a drawing
room in which the coming and going
of visitors has raised a cloud OF face
powder.

his CALL.

A number of congressman were
swapping stories in the house cloak
room one day when Johu Sharp VIII
liams told of an old negro whose la
bors in the cotton field were one day
brought to a speedy conclusion. It
had been hot day in July. The old
man, in the middle of the field sud
denly ceased his task, and, looking
toward the sky, exclaimed:
"Oh, Lawd, de cotton am SO gras-
sy. de wuk am SO hard, and de sun
am so hot, dat 1 believe dis niger am
called to preach !"
And he has preached ever since.

| business" Yet He was ever obe-
diert to them, and His mother doubt
less instructed Him in the things Of
God, as He was not educated in the
school of the rabbits as was Paul.
And He was not ashamed of work.
Once when the people gathered about
Him, eager for the gracious words
that fell from His lips, someone, per.
haps jealous of His influence upon
the hearts of the people, derisively
asked the question "Is not this the
carpenter, the son ofJoseph?" Doubt
less He learned the trade while boy
and became skilled mechanic. Once
l was shown a saw, the kind they
used in the days when this boy lived
and toiled for living. It sawed only
one way, and strong muscles were re-
quired to work it. And I have no
doubt He learned that trade for a
double purpose. 1t is written some
! where in the Bible that the people of
God in the world to come will build
houses and inhabit them" What a
delightful time that will be when the
child Jesus, the master mechanic and
architect of the universe, will guide
His people in their plans for house
building. We read of Him that His
name shall be called Counsellor, yet
doubtless when boy He the king of
men received counsel of those He
worked under.
In the daily walks of life what a
sweet influence would have surround
ed you with this boys presence ever
helping to resist the constant tempta-
tions of the evil one. He would not
have, ,scolded, nor have become angry
with you when you made mistakes,
or were almost overcome while fight
ing the battles of conscience. Neither
would He have gone with you into
the paths of sir, but when you were
tempted to do wrong His hand would
have been gently laid on your shoul-
der, or His arm linked with yours,
perhaps; and with His fearless, holy
eyes looking straight into yours would
you not have been greatly helped?
How very strong He was at all
times, and yet He himself admitted
afterward that of His own self He
could do nothing good. He dwelt in
the same flesh as you, and expert
enced every temptation you have
known. His life was without stain
of sin; His sacrifice, infinite and in.
comprehensive, brought Him Joy and
great satisfaction. He is alive today.
Behold, He is alive for everyone,
and amid scenes of JOY and matchless
splendor He holds out His hands to
all that they may by faith grasp the
hands pierced for their sakes. And
as He beholds the young, believe
His thoughts go back to the far away
past when He. as boy, dwelt on the
earth and knew the joys and sorrows
of the young. Then let US make
Him one of our family, this gentle
boy boy Issssugss. Issgs.; anqI sxsHHL HHLa as Hf was al
Father for strength and grace, let us
follow in His steps and triumph as He
ever triumphed. Then may we ever
sing with the understanding these
words
dependent on Thy bounteous breath,
We seek Thy face alone,
