The Old-Time Singer.

We liked the old-time meetings-on Jordan's
banks to stand
And cast wishful eye far off into the promised
land;
The old songs of salvation salvation full an
free,-
That great old tune: "Amazin' grace, that saw
ed wretch like me-
I recollect them old sweet hymns that used to
float SO high,
They seemed to shake the windows in the ever
astin' skyl
For when we heard the preacher say: "Some
brother raise the tune,"
We always knew "Amazin' grace" was comm
pretty soon.
Somehow the new style singn' is rather out of
line.
lose my voice completely, an with kind O.
sigh
Seek Jordan stormy banks of old, where my
possessions lie.
There's more than folks imagine tell you, in
song;
It's still the same old gospel, but they try to
twist it wrong;
Lestways, the old folks think so, but what's
the use to sigh?
So long as it's the Gospel, we'll get there by
and by!

The Reflections of a Philosopher.

1t takes a clever oculist to cure an
egotist of his l trouble.
IT'S long lane that knows no honking.
A beauty may be peerless, but if she
has money it will not be long before she
can land one if she goes about it in ear
nest.
We have cow-sheds for our cows and
wood-sheds for our wood. Why not have
place apart in which to shed our tears?
There is the same difference between
"bridal'' and ''bridle" as there is
between an "altar and ''halter." This
is respectfully referred to persons con-
templating matrimony.
History teaches US that the main object
of mobs in monarchical revolutions is to
dethrone the king and raise the deuce.
Virtue is not always triumphant.
Take the case of the clam, for instance.
1t is only the very bad one that is victo-
rious against the aggressions of hungry
humankind. -Harper's Weekly.

THANKSGIVING.

Through the night we watched his breathing,
AS our little darling slept;
While down by his cradle kneeling
The prayers of our grief we wept.
Not word was said in the stiffness
The silence spoke sadder than speech
For the language of sorrow and illness
Is a tongue only tears can teach.
We knew in His care God held him.
That the life which He gave He could take
That those chains which our love had beer
welding,
The Master could loose n and break,
But fond hearts clung to hope, undespalrng,
With the trust of childlike faith,
That the All-Loving Father would spare him,
We asked for the Saviour's sake.
And a great joy came with the morning,
AS the promise of life broke sweet;
Deaths Angel passed by in the dawning,
Forgetting our babe asleep!
o mute Halleujahs of feeling
Dumb, thankful TIE Deums we weep!
By our little ones cradle while kneeling,
God left him here for us to keep

MODEL FARMS.

James j. Hill is one of a few of our
modern ulti-millionaires who are likely
to go down into history under the at
tractive title of ''empire builders" He
is man of faith and works on grand
scale and what he has done earns respect
for whatever ne has to say.
One OF his latest utterances is in the
November Worlds Work, where he
writes: ''If | could have my way should
build a couple of warships year less.
Perhaps one would do | would take that
S., 900, 900 or $4,000, 900 year and start
at least 1000 agricultural schools in the
United States at $4,000 year each, in
the shape of model farms. This model
farm would be simply a tract of land
conforming in size, soil treatment, crop
selection and rotation and methods of
cultivation to modern agricultural meth
DDS. Its purpose would be to furnish to
all its neighborhood working model for
common instruction. Cultivating, per-
haps from 40 to 60 acres, it could exhibit
on that area the advantages of thorough
tillage which the small farm makes pos
sible; of seed specially chosen and tested
by experiment at agricultural college
farms; of proper fertilization, stock
raising, alienation of crops and the
whole scientific and improved system of
cultivation, seeding, harvesting and
marketing. The farmers of county
could see, must see, as they passed its
borders, how their daily labors might
bring increased and improved results.
The example could not fail to impress
itself upon an industry becoming each
year more conscious of its defects and its
needs. AS fast as it was followed, it
would improve farm conditions, make
this form OF enterprise more attrac-
tive to the young and the intelligent, and
add enormc usly to the volume of farm
products which constitutes our enduring
national wealth."

Expectation pay him Immediately therefor
ard stop condemnation proceedings at once Those
behind the bill think the city could effect a
promise with the property owners which would in
each case permit a purchase price lower than the

ally vests at the time that the Board Of Estimate
passes z resolution authorizing its purchase. but
the seller the property Is not paid for II until
after the commissioners Of condemnation decide
upon an award and that award is confirmed by the
courts Experience shows that the seller
wait about Two years for his money after
the city takes the property.
The proposed bin provides that any time after
the award is confirmed by the court the Board OF
Estimate purchase the award from the seller
~ the property, and at the moment the award IS
purchased by the city the condemnation proceed
ines shall cease
