noU,Ts FOR CHURCHMEN.

Don't sit still if you would avoid
life's most trying situation.
Don't lose your faith in good things
by feeding on garbage.
Don't make the mistake of trying
to clean up the world by scalding your
neighbors.
Don't mistake for the water of life
that which gets into the milk Of hui
man kindness.
Don't fail to remember that capac.
itv for heaven depends on the creation
OF happiness here.
Don't expect to find the finest pros
poets in life except at the summit OF
disagreeable duties.
Don't forget that while you may
have right to your own sorrows, you
have no right to throw their shadows
in another's way.

BE HUMBLE BEFORE GOD.
BY r. w. SnYde

AS' W. 0OA"
Humble yourselves therefore under
the mighty hand of God, that He may
exalt you in due time; casting all
your care upon Him; for He careth
for you'll. Peter V. 6, Z.
st. Peter knew the value of his own
prescription It had helped him and
SO he commended it to those around
him. 1t is good prescription-as
good for US now as for those
of ST. Peters day. True, we
do not live in such evil times
as did those to whom the apostle
wrote, and yet, let times be what they
may or circumstances ever SO favor
able, our life must needs be one of
more or less continual struggle, and so
sometimes one of hope deferred that
maketh the heart sick
knowing that this is so, we should
bear with a calm and sober heart alike
the seeming good and the seeming i'll
that life may bring, knowing that
real hardships to be endured; real
temptations to be overcome hopes that
will be Elusive, and sometimes crosses
that are heavy and hard to bear.
Most of US know it, and those that do
Tot will some day. Those are to be
congratulated who have come to know
that happiness merely is not blessed
ness and that "a mans life consistent
rot in the abundance of the things
which he foreseeth," for not till then
car we know what the apostle meant
In saying, Humble yourselves there

POULTRY AND DAIRY NEGLECT
Two Branches of Agriculture Being
Overlooked That Pay Good Prof
it's to the Farmer.

There are two branches of agricul.
ture which pay larger than any others
for the investments in them in the
central western states that are the
most neglected. We refer to the
dairy and poultry industries, says the
Indiana Farmer. 1t is true that in
way they are both pursued on the
farm, but back in the years when but
ter sold for G and Z cents a pound
chickens 81 a dozen and eggs at
and 6 cents per dozen the men OF
the farm tabooed them and thought
these industries were too trifiing, and
they have never gotten over it. II
is a good illustration of the force OF
early habits, for it sticks to most
farmers yet, though dairying and
poultry demands have quadrupled
prices in many respects. The ancient
COWS which made but two or three
pounds of butter week and the dung
hill chicks that were in the same
scant class probably had something
to do with forming this habit; but
now that We have passed these things
by, isn't it time to take notice more
generally and to give the most prof
table industries of the farm greater
and more methodical attention?
1t is also to be said Of the dairy in.
dustry that it is one of the greatest
factors i'll keeping up soil fertility.
Experience has shown that where
dairying is followed as a leading fea.
ture of the farm the average yield OF
corn and other crops is decidedly in.
creased. Corn and corn silp - are
leading features in the indu, as
by this method the greater produc.
tions of the farm are returned to the
soil to enrich it. Rotating corn and
clover, both of which are required in
dairying, insures the nitrogen and
humus so essential in the soil. Clover
or alfalfa, where it can be grown,
along with corn and corn silage, make
a good ration for COWS and make
good rotations. With these farm
crops but little bran and cotton seed
meal are needed in dairy feeding tc
make a balanced ration.

me, who never alluded to 1t, except Of
ficially, as it were, on Sunday, when
they all declared themselves miserable
sinners-for that occasion only. Over
ton then sauntered over toward Lady
Arabella, who seemed to recognize
his approach by instinct. She turned
to him, her cards in her hands, and
flushed deeply; he gaZed at her stern
remark or two, moved off, to her evi-
dent chagrin.
Daphne being near me then, 1 said
to her with forced laugh:
what is the meaning, beg you to
tell me, of the pantomime between
Lady Arabella and Capt. Overton?"
Daphne hesitated, and then said:
Capt. Overton was one of the gay
est men about London until year or
two ago. Since then, it is said, he has
turned Methody. 1t is believed he goes
to Mr.. Wesley's meetings, although
he has never been actually caught
there. He lives plainly, and, some
say hC SlFCo W tiO pociJ
he will not go to the races any more,
nor play, and he does not like to see
Arabella play"
what has he to do with Arabella?"
Nothing that l know of, except that
she likes him. He does not like to
see any one play now although he
gained very high himself at one time"
| had seen no particular marks of in
terest on Overton's part toward Lady
Arabella; but, watching her, I saw
in a very little while, the deepest sort
of interest on her part toward him.
She even left the cardtable for him,
and kept fast hold of him. l recalled
the way she had striven TO attract his
attention at the play that night, more
than two years before, and my jeal
GUS soul was Illuminated with the
knowledge that she was infatuated
with Overton-and | was right
Some time afterward, whom should

Lady Hawkshaw received him most
graciously, l went up TO him and
asked: How came you here?"
Did you think, Dicky that I meant
to let you keep up close blockade
of the lovely Arabella? No, indeed 4 I

ing, by working all day for it. and l

well as you"
I thought when he saw Lady Ara
bella with Overton that even Giles

equal to accosting her. He marched

sHREWD SCHEME OF MOTHER.
No Roseate Postcard Without Its
Thorn of Suggestion.

Harold's mother-we'lI call him
Harold-went abroad a month ago,
leaving Harold under the somewhat
unsubstantial control of his elder sis
ters.
In spite of the itemized directions
with which even unto the moment Of
final leavetaking she had not ceased
to lombard him, Harold's mother
was far from sure that her efforts
would have any lasting effect.
Her voyage was more or less dis
turbed by these doubts, but before she
landed on the other side she had de-
termined on a course of action. Like
all small boys, Harold is most covet-
Gus of picture postcards and had
looked forward to harvest from his
mothers trip.
He got it,
Every day she sent at least one
card. And, whatever else it bore in
the way of inscription, there was not
one which failed of this introduction:

himself up with all the coolness in
the world, claiming kinship boldly
with Overton, who couldn't forbear
smiling, and Immediately began to
try for favor in Arabella's eyes.
But here | saw what | never did be-
fore or since with Giles Vernon-a
woman who was utterly Indifferent to
him, and actually seemed to dislike
him. She scarcely noticed him at first,
and, when he would not be rebuffed
was so saucy to him that | wondered
he stood for it for a minute. But
stand it he did, with the evident de-
termination to conquer her indiffer-
ence or dislike, whichever it might be-
Overton seized the excuse of Giles
approach to escape, and left the house,
which did not cause Lady Arabella
to like Giles any better. She returned
to the card-table, Giles with her, and,
by the exercise of the most exquisite
ingenuity, he managed to lose some
money to her, which somewhat re-
stored her good humor.
At last the rout was over and soon
after midnight all had gone. | was

benefit of the nightly lecture Lady
Hawkshaw gave Sir Peter, with the
most unfailing regularity. On this
particular night, they came nearer
agreeing than usual, both of them dis
cussing anXiously Lady Arabellas s
marked fondness for play. And Lady
Hawkshaw told of a late escapade of
Lady Arabella's in which a certain ace
of clubs was played by her; the said
ace of clubs being fashioned out of
black court-plaster and white card
board. When detected Lady Arabella
professed to think the whole thing
joke, but as her adversary
at the time was a very old lady
whose eyesight was notoriously de-
fective, it took all of Lady Ara
bella's wit and youth to carry it
off successfully, which, however, she
did. AS for her trinkets, Lady Ara
bella was always buying them, and al
ways taking distaste to them, so she
alleged. and Lady Hawkshaw sus-
pected they took the place of shillings
at the card-table. Sir Peter groaned
at this and remarked that the earl her
father, was the worst gamester he
knew, except her grandfather. I do
not remember any more. l tried to

Succession of Planting in Garden.

For the vegetable garden a supply
Of seed should be kept on hand
through the summer for succession
of planting of the quck-maturine
plants. Lettuce and radishes soon go
and their rows should Immediately be
filed either with some other quick
maturing plants or with some that
mature late in the season. Tomatoes
and peppers can easily follow lettuce
and radishes, and late sweet corn can
follow early beans. Late celery does
well on early potato ground if it is
fertile enough and moist enough.
Garden soil is highly fertile and can
stand constant cropping There is
no need of its resting and no excuse
for its lying idle and growing up to
weeds. Keeping every row and every
square foot of the garden soil planted
with some useful plants and under
the highest cultivation will not ONLY
keep dowc weeds but will conserve
soil moisture and liberate plant foods

1t is to be borne in mind that trees
grow handsomer each year and will

to look for a country home. He
doesn't drive up to some tumbe-down
farmstead with the trees neglected
and half dead. OF course not. He
tries to buy a place with beautiful
shrubs, trees and lawns. If our farms
were more beautiful the boys and the
girls wouldn't be so anxious to leave
them.
