Well if that is the whole daily record Of senator's
business, he ought to be proud of it,
1t is hard to imagine any greater real benefit he might
bestow upon his constituents and his country.
OF course, there people who object and call it COM
munsc, socalistic and every other holrd stic They
ask why not send boots and shoes well peas and
beans and why not send meat and groceries the same
plan?
Without going into that question: is sufficient to
say that seed stands in class by itself
A seed is common property of mankind No man can
fully possess it his except by planting it and tend
ing it. The ulness of his possession depends upon the
funess of his and industry. 1t yields to him only in
proportion as he labors for it.
A seed is merely Gods promise. He fufs it only to
the worthy and only to the degree of worthiness.
1t is call for industry.
1t arouses hope. 1t stimulates ambition.
For between the seed and the harvest there lies labor
which makes manhood.
The seed yields fruit which nourshes the body, or
flower that nourshes the senses, but it also yields richer
fruit that nourshes the soul.
Seed is like educaon-nota thing in itself, for its
sake but possessing possibilities that through
other means. TO give seed is to appeal to the
best that there is in him. Society him that For the
rest that he gets out of life puts into it he must depend
upon himself.

But at the end of a week Hick
took the matter more seriously.

beard and he began to look like

Little children were hushed to
sleep at the sight. Strangers in
quired if he were the missing link.
Elsie May crossed the street to
avoid him. But Hick, though mis-
cradle. was too stubbornly con-
scientiOus to break his VOW. He
could only hope the four years
would quickly pass, that Potter
might have another chance.
In the sixth month of his VOW
Hick, who by this time resembled
a wild Bornian, was aroused one
night by an insistent knocking at
the door. Presenting himself, he
was seized, thrown, gagged and
bound, and carried by a band Of
men, led by a trim, slender figure,
to the barber shop. Lights were
procured. and while two strong
men held Eiick, Thompkins, the
barber, laid low the patriarchs
beard, the duello mustachios and
the medicine-m hair. Hick
emerged from the chair clean and
rosy as young Ganymede.
He was at once confronted by
the slender leader. "Hick," said
silvery voice, we've broken
your VOW for you, and you're re.
leased. Are you going to be sen.
sible, Or
Hick was going to be eminently
sensible, as might be deduced
from the fact that he clasped Ell.
sic May to him and almost wept.
AS they went to arouse the parson,
however. Hick muttered:
I'll bet my head Potter is gov
ernor one of these days"
Stop" interrupted Elsie May.
What right have you to be wag-
ering something that belongs to
me?"
And Hick withdrew the bet.
