One Who Will Stop to Let Boys Hitch Their Sleds to His

We say he Is a good man who will stop and let the boys hitch their sleds to his wagon. We saw one the other day. A big smile that seemed to warm the air around broke from his face as he waited for the boys to their happy voices were as music to his soul.
 Then he drove on, looking back to see that all was going well. He re- membered he was a boy once, and how much delight there was in hitch Ing on and being pulled At times he would laugh outright. He forgot the SIP he had In his pocket. the pro ceeds of two swine that he had hauled in. His heart was on bigger things making others happy. And he thought of his own boy back at home, how he would enjoy being with those boys, and he wished he was.
 And so he rode on, smiling and look ing back, and occasionally hitting the horses to make the sleds jerk, and hear the boys shout their happiest, when they held on the tighter or dropped off in the snow and raced again to get tighter grip There Is a scene that beats a banquet or an inauguration out of all reckoning, and there Is in that wagon an old man who is one of the princes of man kind.-Ohio State Journal.

Connecticut Farmers Against Rabbi.

Connecticut Farmers Against Rabbit.
 Most assuredly the proposed protec- ton of rabbits by imposing limit upon catches and by lessening the opening season will not be approved by farmers and fruit growers. Under present limitations rabbits have null tiplied until they have become almost a plague.
 Their principal offense Is the gird- ling of fruit trees, to which they are strongly addicted even when the ground is not snow-covered. So far as known they serve no useful pur- pose except as food: their belts are next to valueless. bringing only a cent each and slow sale" even al that price. Farmers bring the addi tional charge that rabbit hunters tear down and do not reconstruct their fences, and this complaint is founued upon facts.-Bridgepor Farmer.
