The advantage OF number OF small

tied by all breeders. In districts where
cholera Is prevalent these are undoubt'
edly the best shelters. They make II
more diHicult to carry contagion TO all
animals In the herd, and the destruc-
ton OF one OF them in case OF an out

An added advantage Is that they may
be moved from place TO place as need
ed. While more work is necessary In
feeding. the convenience and safety
from their use more than Offset this

SO it is with most things One always feels that the

But the things which really go to make for happiness

If there is thing than all others that helps to

LOVE OR HATE?

Is your life controlled largely by your likes,
your loves, by your dslkes, your hates?
Malice, envy, hard thoughts of any sort, poison first
the heart in which they originate.
They make bracksh, unhealthy pool where all sorts
of noisome mental conditions will generate.
1t Sydney Smith who declared it his idea Of
hell to hate somebody.
1T is only in loves that really live.
What hate is dead to u.s. and the wider the range of
our hates, the narrower our lives.
1t is a beautiful belief that every kindly act, word
thought impulse continues in its influence forever,
frightening and sweetening the world, and that every
evil deed thought permanently destroys part of the
sum total of human happiness
Certainly this is the effect upon the life in which the
thought originates. Every thought elevates or lowers,
purfes debases Love thoughts are wings Hate
thoughts weights
Your feeling is reflected back to you from others.
Ii give love you get love- 1t is of the things the
more of which you give the you have. Love was
born twin and cannot exist without its counterpart
1t is your thought that attracks repes others.
According love hate you surround yourself with
an atmosphere of inviting sweetness, you hedge your
self in with barbed wire fence.
People lovely to you hateful, just you love
them hate them This is not seeming but actu-
atty.
Love is the light in which and live
Hates malarial mists, in which blindly grope
and miserably die.

It's going some when a man of
three months acquaintance beats
the time of a lifelong sweetheart.
Not every man could do it-but
then not every man is Matt
O'Brien.
1t was all over with Matt the
moment that he saw her passing,
holding onto the arm of that little
pasteboard man she was engaged
| to. She was pretty-pretty as you
ever find them-and she threw one
glance at Matt out of her big, you
can t-forget-me eyes that turned
him white as a sheet. For mo-
ment he gazed after the couple as
if he was dazed, then he grabbed
one of the boys hard by the arm.
For the love Of heaven!" Matt
cried, who's the girl?"
The boys laughed.

you know her? She's Nick Wad.
sons daughter. Nellie. That fellow
she's walking With has been her
steady since she was knee-high to
a grasshopper."
Matt gritted Lis teeth little,
hitched up his coat and said:
There goes my future wife!"
OF course, starting out with that
statement, Matt got a rough lot OF
joshingk from the boys. But he
stuck to it and those that know
say he told the girl what he intend
ed to do the third time he called
ION her. However that is, he was
calling her by her first name the
second day after the introduction
and was feeling sorry for the paste,
! board man by the end Of the week.
BY the end of the third week Matt
was trying to decide which of the
boys to have 70: ushers.
Somehow. though. he didn't get
along so we'll in the fourth week.
She was Just as friendly with him
as ever but when he'd take her
lily-whlte hand in his and turn on
the mush talk. she'd only laugh.
