Young and Old.

When all the world is young, lad,
And all the trees are green;
And every goose swan, lad.
And every lass a queen;
Then hey for boot and horse, lad,
And round the world away;
Young blood must have its course
lad,
And every dog his day.
When all the world is old, lad,
And all the trees are brown;
When all the sport is stale, lad,
And all the wheels run down;
Creep home and take your place
there,
The spent and MANNED among;
God grant you find one face there
You loved when all was young.

A Handsome Apology.

Ned and his grandmother are the
best of friends, but sometimes the
little boys tongue is too quick to
please the old lady. Then Ned apol-
O8izes after a fashion of his own
which his grandmother approves.
Il got tired Juggling that wheelbar-
row for grandmother while she was
changing her plants, Ned said to
his mother, recounting the days
events at bedtime. and | said, l
wish there wasn't another speck of
this, hateful dirt in all the world,
But then, afterward, | pologized.',
I'm glad of that" said his mother
Did you tell her you were sorry?"
No, that is not the kind grand
mother likes best" said Ned "I
got another wheelbarrow full and
Just said: Don't you want some
more of this nice dirt, grandmother?
And then we were all right again.

Preserving with Paraffine.

There is a variety Of paraffine
that comes for the purpose made
of petroleum, clean, pure, tasteleSs,
odOrless, air proof, water proof and
and acid proof.
When the fruit is cooled and
ready to seal pour a layer of para
fine one-eigth of an inch thick over
the top and allow 1t to stand until
the paraffine becomes hard, when it
will be found to have sealed the
contents of the jar absolutely air
tight without the need of any other
cover - the unspeakable rubber
rings and metal tops that wiring
ones hand off.
/ To remove the paraffine top run
a knife around the edge. The wax
should not be poured on the jelly,
jam or other preserves until they
have thoroughly cooled, as other
wise twill likely become detached
on the sides of the glass, leaving
air passages, which might possibly
cause the contents to mold. Para.
fine is needful in every well ap.
pointed laundry to keep the irons
smooth and clean, or to add lusteI
to the linen by being added to the
hot starch. A teaspoonful of para.
fine in shavines is sufficient fol

Missed Them Well

There are always two ways Of
telling the truth. The man who
told the king that he would Outlive
all his subjects was a true courtier,
and understands human nature far
more than the man who was put to
death for declaring to the same
monarch that all his subjects would
die before him. The Gamekeeper
in Francis Pidon'S Odds and Ends
also had the gift of presenting the
pleasanteSt side Of a fact.
A certain noble lord was a very
bad shot. One day, after a particu-
larly discoura8ing exhibition of his
bunglioS, he said to the keeper:
Nov, my man, tell me the truth
Did you ever see any one who shot
as badly as do?"
Oh, yes, my lord" returned the
keeper. I've seen worse shots than
your lordship. Your lordship miss
es the birds so clean. - Youths

Baby Beef is Unfit

The Butchers Association in St.
Louis will ask Congress to enact a
law prohibiting the slaughter of
baby live stock" Such a law"
said J. D. LukenbilI, recording sec
rotary, would, in the opinion OF
the majority of butchers through
out the country, do more to bring
about d reduction in the price Of
meat than all other measures thus
far proposed. If lambs and calves
were exempt from slaughter until
they had reached maturity, they
would produce five times the guam
tity of meat, Of more wholesome
and nutritious quality than the
product of the immature animals
Lamb and veal are at best I'M
wholesome and really not fit for
human consumption, but there has
been a growing demand for them Of
late years which is inexplicable tC
most butchers. This creates a de,
mand for supply and a correspond
ing increase in the price Elk.

The following pretty little ro-
nance was vouched for by Lake
City, Iowa: Ten years ago Mrs.
Emma Goodrich, who owns a forty
acre farm on Coon river, west of
here, gave rough looking tramp a
hearty meal and all of the good
clothing which belonged to her
dead husband. Mrs. Goodrich for
got the incident until few days
ago when a man drove up in an au-
tomobile and bought the 40-acre
tract of rundown land for enough
to keep the gray haired woman the
rest of her life. He was Edgar
Boyer, of Seattle and declared that
he was the tramp whom the wom-
an fed and clothed ten years ago.
He had made a fortune in Oregon
and California and the one desire
of his life was to repay the kind
ness of the struggling woman. =

Lumbermen want Low Rates

New Orleans, December 1S.-That any rates in excess of 10 cents per hundred on lumber, logs and slaves from Louis jana. Arkansas and Texas points to New Orleans are excessive, was the contention presented here today by lumber exporters. It was also main- tained that the rates on slaves were such as to show @ discrimination against lumber and logs. The presenta- ton of these contentious was before George P Boyle, special examiner oi the interstate commerce commission. The inquiry is the result of charges made by the National Lumber Export CTS association. It is alleged that the railroads charge a higher rate on the commodities slated for export thar they do for local shipments.

CHINESE IMMIGRANTS
 CAREFULLY EXAMINED

San Francisco, December B.-Secretary Nagel as head of the immigration ser- vice, has overruled the protest of the Chi nese consulate at San Francisco against the mode of examining Chinese immi- grants at the station on Angel island. The consul had complained that his country men were humiliated by the practice of lancing their ears at night to ascertain from the condition of the blood whether they were suffering from filariasis.
 Secretary Nagel justiies pr. w. M. Glover, the medical inspector, in this course, finding that he acted upon con- mon sense and good judgment.
 The consul had also charged that there was discrimination against Chinese and in favor of other races in the examnia- tions at Angel island, but the secretary finds the charges unfounded.
