Feeding Young Chicks.

oat meal in the litter of clover or
chaff and three feeds of the chick
feed, in all five feeds daily for the
first ten days, then four times a day
for the next two weeks and three
times day thereafter until they are
put out on free range. Feed lightly
but often is the motto for young
chicks. Give green food in some
form, chopped cabbage, lettuce leaves
or green grass cut fine. Animal food
of some kind must be provided or the
chicks will be found trying to eat
each other up. Those who have or

cracked corn and whole wheat can be
fed in place of chick feed after four
weeks old, but the latter is far the
best to use for young chicks as 1t is
always convenient and ready. Though
a little more expensive, the real diff
ference in cost amounts to compare
lively nothing, as young chicks can
not consume enough to make the diff
Terence appreciable. The old idea
that chicks require a culinary depart

waste time and patience of the good
housewife in baking johnnycake or
other "specialties. Modern chicken
foods and appliances have reduced
the burden of chick culture by half,
and at the same time made it more
successful.

Willing and Unwilling Blindness.
(John 81

Willing and Unwilling Blindness.
(John 81
Verses 1. 2. The blind man had no
blame for his blindness. 1t was his
burden for his shame. Nor
were his parents under condemna-
ton. Only in the wide sense that
since sin came there are all sorts of
blindness in the world had sin aught
to do with the blind mans affliction.
Verses 3, 4. There was no sin here,
but to Jesus there was opportunity.
He saw that man could be made
whole, and that God could be glorlfied
I'm the deed.
Verses G, z. What a queer errand
on which the Saviour sent this man!
What did he think. as he groped his
way to Sloan? But he went! Back
OF Gods work was mans obedience. 1t
Is often so. Naaman must bathe in
Jordan, the centurion must go to his
house; the tired fisherman must let
down the net; the man with the with.
cred hand must stretch 1t forth; the
lad must give his loaves and fishes ;
the mourners must roll the stone from
the mouth OF Lazarus tomb Christ
does the great work, but he counts on
our cooperation.
Verses s, 9. 1t was the same man
who came back from the pool, and yet
not the same. He said, 81 am he,''
but how different he was! He had a
new dignity and independence and
courage. For he could see!
Verses 10, IL. And his friends said.
How did 1t happen?' They always
do, though not always in. words. you
have changed" they say. What did
it?" That is the question which their
looks and actions put to us. And they
really want to know.
Verse 1G. The Pharisees see not
the seeing man but the disregarded
law of the Sabbath. And yet some
are troubled. How can a bad man, a
Sabbath breaker, do gracious and
difficulty. too. How can our religion
portant to the world?
Verses "a, %. The restored man S
testimony to his new capacity is a
classic of conclusive reasoning. He
knows very llttle-not even that
Jesus is a good man--but what he
knows he does not guess; Il was
blind; l see." To that there is no ans.
wer. 1t stops every critics mouth.
Verses 1884. But the Pharisees
couldn't see. They wouldn't see. So
even a beggar could taunt them with
out fear. What! You are learned
and yet you do not know even the
simplest thing about one who makes
blind men see! How wondrous your
knowledge!" So men are blind today
to the presence of Jesus in the world
Verses 35.38. A man who has be
lieved up to the limit of his knowl
edge Is ready for bigger revelation
So the once blind is sought out by
the Master and a new miracle is
wrought in him.
Verses 40. Al. Blindness is bad, but
1t Is not wicked. because 1t is involun
tary. Not so the shut eye of the
Pharisee. He could see II he would

THE QUEST OF PEACE.

The gallant knight in days of yore
Rode forth to seek the Holy Grail
Upon his sturdy back he wore
The glittering suit of woven mail.
The pennoned lance, the blade he bore,
Should make the naughty Paynim pale!
Strong in the faith his cause was right,
He smote his way through fray and
fight.
In vain those doughty champions sought
Through far. war.desolated lands
That ehalice OF bright emerald wrought,
Which sparkled in the Saviour's hands
AT the Last Supper, when He taught
His chosen few His few commands:
Of Meekness overcoming strife
Of Love and Truth redeeming life.
The world shall see the Holy Grail
When armies shall be hosts of Peace;
When arguments Of force shall fail.
And War and Wars wild spirit cease.
Then shall the Reign of God prevail
And Joy and Happiness increase
The Holy Grail shall glow and shine,
Filled with Loves sacrameutal wine!

OF Peace

They are what might be termed
large fowls. males weighing eight or

The males are beautiful dark red

They are splendid types of the

They are splendid table fowls, good

No other kind of fancy poultry has
come so prominently to the front In
so short a space of time as the Rhode
Island Reds.
A few years since they we're known
only as local product of the State
from which they took their name.
But little attention was paid to their
breeding, and they were not uniform
in color or shape, but their worth was
known, and they grew in popularity
with those who kept poultry for profit.
AS time passed they attracted the
attention of fanciers, who saw in
them more than the everyday useful
fowl. They saw that by careful Sc
lection and mating that a most beau
tiful breed could be developed, and
