brown.
I love the sun in summer gone down;
love to see the brown leaves fall, and
over the hills, dancing all,
Leaving behind them barren trees.
I know they've felt the brisk north
And now they're answering autumn's
call,
Soon they'll be covered with a black
pail.

stalk, already ripe.
And catch the juicy stream that's

AS 1t flows freely from the pipe.

I love the autumn, anyhow
And winters dull, dead, 1eafless lull.

And, looking at the bright red blaze,
To see the smoke go slowly up
In fairy figures would praise.
Thus, looking in the fire, I see
The faces all so dear to me;
Then thinking back far through the
years,
Voices fainting / seem to hear,
Coming across the fields of Time,
And speaking low in accents clear;
The wind may blow, gray nuts may
fall,
Leaves may answer autumn's call;
Our lives be short, the end come quick,
But the bonds OF youth are letters
thick,
And they have bound our hearts
sincere,
And each one loves his same ones

JUVENILE
HAIR DRESSING.

Is noticeably softer than for some
time back.
One of the latest ideas in chill
dren's hairdressing is the transforma-
ton of the Dutch style into a Louis
XVI. period.
This style is only a slight alteration
in the Dutch arrangement.
1t consists OF having the cropped
hair curled and falling in long ring
lets completely surrounding the head
from ear to ear, instead of being
combed down straight
The arrangement is decidedly quaint
and pretty. 1t will be becoming to
even greater number of children
than was the harsher Dutch style.

GOOD WORK WELL SUPPORTED
People Are Liberal In Their contribu
tions to Young Mems Christian
Associations.

This year Young Mems Christian as
sociations are likely, it is said, to
break all records in amount Of money
raised FOR new buildings. The success
at Philadelphia, when s1,030,O00 was
secured In twelve days, has given
stimulus both to Young Mems and
Young Women's associations. Added
to It was the $2,0OO,O0o campaign for
buildings In foreign capitals. Brook
lyn women, with the aid of a few men,
have Just secured s415, 900; Atlanta
men, 100000; Reading, s215o00;
Elyria, Ohio, s127, 900, where the COM
mittee asked for but 100000; Charles
ton, S. c., s15O,000; Raleigh, N. c..
$4,000; Walla Walla, Wash, s48,0oo,
and Ishpeming, Mich, s22,500. Asso-
citation leaders say three things help
them in getting these large sums:
Christian unity, a short and public ap-
peal, and real results accomplished in
buildings already erected.

Towanda, Pa.-Not satisfied with
being first in butter production In the
north tier, Towanda has the first
brood Of chickens ever hatched by
electricity in the state, and perhaps
in the country. 1t all came shout
through the ingenuity Of Clarence
Braund, a poultry expert, who is en-

He conceived the idea of substitut.
ing the electric bulb for the uncertain
kerosene lamp, which causes so MANY
disasters because of the risk of its
starting a fire, oyerheating or going

Taking common incubator, he sim.
ply wired it and used electric bulbs
instead for heating. and the result was
very satisfactory. All of the eggs but

was kept even night and day without
any attention on his part, and the
chicks are as lively as any ever

When he told his class Of young

piratical sparrows, the youngsters
were inspired with desire to go out
