1--WE may as we'll SIT down to break
fast now, and after breakfast you can
go right off to school,"
So James had to go TO school In
spite OF all his trouble. And the sun
stayed Just where 1t was all that day,
and all that night James could scarce
ly sleep because his room was so
light. And 1t kept on that way for a
whole week. Because he was so much
in the sun James freckles increased
SO that he was mostly freckles, and
he thought: "If this keeps on shall
soon be brown all over, and that
won't be bit nice"
But the trees and plants had a
much harder time than James, as the
sunlight continued day after day, and
they began to droop, for they grew
all the time, and had no time to rest.
At the end of the week James said:
"The gray witch was right. l don't
like this bit. / have to go to school
Just the same, and it's hot and horrld
all the time. I'm going back up the
mountain to ask the gray witch 10
help me again, for I've thought and
thought, and can't think how to get
that arrow out again"
So he climbed up the mountain and
when he got to the top there was the
gray witch standing at the door of
her little gray house, waiting for him,
II thought sou wouldn't like it,"
she chuckled, as he came painting up.

pie they come back the next week

clare l don't SEQ much use in being a

ness But first will help you fix the

So she went into her house and
came out with a long coil Of fine
magic rope. She made one end of it
into lasso and gave 1t to James.
"See If you can lasso the arrow
with that, she said.
So James twirled the rope about
his head and flung 1t up, up and up
through the air till it reached the
sun. And then 1t went right past it
and never caught the arrow at all.
TRY again." cried the witch; so
James tried and the second time the
loop fell right over the shaft of the
arrow. Then James drew the lasso
tight and pulled and the arrow came
out of the sun with a jerk and the
sun jumped forward to its proper
place in the sky. And that was the
last time James Montmorency Steb-

Did you ever find yourself in the

who only sees the disagreeable side
of everything, and published his
views early and often? For such a
man the trail is frightful; the woods
that occasionally slap him playfully
across the cheek are anathema, the
water is too wet, his rod or cast or
something or other gets broken or
lost, his shoe pinches one foot. About

Whnt thc Hlred Man Saws.

Weeds, making the best of them
possible, are parasites, not only as to
the soil and farm crops, but also in
the revenue of the farmer, as what
ever is stolen from his crop is taken
from his income.
A farmer who wears ragged and
dirty clothes, whiskers that invite the
birds to nest and is in his general
makeup about as attractive as a
tramp, is curiosity these days.
The automobile is on the trail of
the scrub horse, but 1t will never be
able to catch the thoroughbred or
even the high grade amman.
An argument in favor of variety
Of food is found in the fact that no
two animals will give exactly the
same results from the same rations.
Aside from the cost of the seed and
little work, It's just as cheap to
raise clover as ragweed.
A New Jersey farmer, writing
about his trials with hired men, says
last spring he hired man who
claimed to be farmer and set him
to work hoeing tomatoes in the gar
den. Two hours later the farmer
went out to see how his hired man
was getting along, and discovered
that he had pulled up all the tomato
plants and nicely hilled up lot of
ragweed in an adjoining bed! No
wonder this man is in favor Of for
eign labor.

Count Tolstoi thus sums up his an
ticipations of death in reply to a

All earthly life, he says, is dream,

awaits that awakening with happi-

OF death at different ages and I'M

death in youth Is as when a man

AMERICANS ENGLISH GOOD.
As Good as English English, Says Ger
man Overwhelmingly Worst
of 3b.

Among the advisers of the Prussian
Ministry Of Education who were con-
suited regarding the exchange Of
teachers between the United States
and Germany was Alois Brandt, profess
sor of the English language at the
Berlin University and president OF
the German Shakespeare Society. He
was specially asked If 1t were to be
feared that the American teachers
would teach English with bad accent,
as some of the advisers contended.
Prof Brandt's official report de-
clared that the average American
teachers English was quite as good
as that of the average English teach
err. He was further of opinion that
English is quite as we'll spoken gen
orally in America as in England. He
was strengthened in this view by a
visit he made recently to London pub
lie elementary schools, where he was
shocked to hear children reciting Sc
lections from Shakespeare in the cock
ney dialect.
He deduces from the intrusion of
the hideous cockney pronunciation,
which by the way, he declares to be
the most hateful of all dialects to ed
ucated Englishmen, and from the in
huence OF various other dialects upon
colloquial English, that the English
spoken in England Is not on the whole
one whit purer than that spoken in
America, of which he made close
study during twenty years continual
contact with American students at
German universities and when in
America as German representative at
the Franklin celebration.
On the latter occasion he listened
to speeches by thirty-five Americans
from all parts Of the Union, and of the
thirty-fve speakers the one who used
the most un- English English was An
drew Carnegie. Prof. Brandt believes
the American twang is rapidly dying
out and that some day it win be
thing of the past. He says the average
American is being educated into con
seriousness of his accent and is begin.

FARM AND HOME,
Testing Grain For smut.


A correspondent at Williamsville,
H., writes: Should seed oats
brought in from the North be treated
for smut; II 30, how should 1t be
done?"
SHUTS are caused by the growth OF
minute parasitic plants that live with
in the tissues of the grain. These
black masses of smut may be seen at
harvest time completely replacing
heads of oats or wheat, and the infec.
ton to the succeeding crop is caused
by these smutty seeds. 1t Will do no
harm to treat oats for smut, even II
they are not infected, and then we
will be practically certain that our
crop will be clean The best chemical
to use is formaldehyde; II is the
cheapest and most easily applied. In
sist that 1t be at least forty per cent.
pure, or else your treatment may not
be effective. The solution should be
made In the proportion Of one pound
of formaldehyde to forty-flve gallons
of water. That amount will be am
pie to treat seventy-flve bushels OF
oats. The easiest method to apply
the solution is to spread out the oats
on the granary or barn floor and
spray the solution over them with
common sprinkling can. Do the job
on a rather warm day. Stir the seed
over several times, so that all is thor.
oughly moistened. Cover 1t up with
bags or horse blankets for two or
three hours. Then remove the cover
