Manners Of the noy.

For some reason many mothers do
not give the same attention to the
manners of their sons as to those OF
their daughters. Yet the boys train.
Ing is ceven more important than
those of the girl. Tie majority OF
young men leave their homes shortly
after they come Of age, and many
leave before that period. and they
come into contact, into intimate asso
citation frequently, with men who have
had but little training in the nice
ties of life. and all too frequently
these evil communications corrupt the
good manners of the more fortunate
class. But the boy who is trained to
courtesy from his childhood can be
trusted in any environment.

NUN FCRSAKES vow
RETURNS TO THE WORLD AFTER
20 YEARS IN A CONVENT.

the remainder of her life behind the
cloistered walls of the Convent of tn.
Good Shepherd, in Grace street, Chi

years of convent life, chose to cast
aside her VOWS, and was welcomed
back to her family in Lansing.
AT twenty Miss Holmes was consid-

malady. The doctors at her home
town could do nothing for her Her
condition became serious. She wal
taken to the st. Mary's hospital at

But when the doctors studied her
case they shook their heads. They
said she had but a few months to live
before she would be taken away by an
Incurable cancer.
Every hope of career In the world
D1ghted, Miss Holmes turned to the
consolation of the church.
She was dismissed from the hospital
after she had rcgained little strength,
but nothing was promised her. She
was told she might live a year or two,
but not more. She went away with

FEED CUTTER QUITE USEFUL
Little Machine is Particularly Benefi
clal In chopping Hay and Fodder
for Animals.
By R. G. wEATHERsToNE)

No farmer who owns even three
head of stock can afford to be without
a feed cutter, although there are
thousands of good sized farms that
have never yet introduced this useful
little machine.
In England 80 per cent. of all the
farmers use cut feed, only 10 per cent
being adverse to the use of the cutter
The feed cutter is particularly bene-
fetal In chopping hay and fodder, be-
cause the quantity may be more cas-.
lily measured, and when chopped and
mixed with small amount of water,
all dust is prevented.
When hay is scarce, clean oat straw
chopped with hay and mixed with
bran or meal, and slightly moistened,
aids mastication and digestion.
Chopped feed is particularly good
for work horses when they have but
to feed. A horse is unable to masti
cate a sufficient amount of roughage
within few minutes, and where the
feeding time is shortened by stress
of work the feed should always be
chopped.
These machines can be run by pow.
or or hand, and are so inexpensive
that the cost is no reason why every
farmer should not avail himself OF
their use.

Twentieth Century Determination.

In the olden times the farm was
general loafing place in the winter.
The farmer loafed at the store or
smith shop; the cows loafed in the
stable, as the milk pals proved; the
horses loafed and grew soft and fat in
their stalls, and the very hens loafed
on the roost waiting for spring before
beginning to lay eggs, says the Farm
Journal A wonderful awakening has
come! The modern farmer is on the
job every day of the winter; the cows
are doing their best to provide plenty
of 50-cent butter, and the cheerful
cackle of the hens on these bright
winter days attests the fact that they
are inspired by the twentieth century
determination to make good at As
cents dozen.

his right arm and blind.
Harris has for months been in the
habit Of obtaining fish from the Ian
guile river by use of dynamite. He
became dexterous in the handling OF
the explosive, and then careless. A
few days ago, after lighting the fuse
he held the charge in his hand toe
long. The dynamite exploded, tearing
off his right arm below the elbow, 'and
destroying his eyes.
The desperately wounded young
man lay all night on the river bank
suffering intensely. Three times he
crawled to the river bank and drank
and each time was sorely tempted tc
roll into the stream and end his mis-
cry.

true, however, that throughout Europe
so-called juries are employed in the

Timellness.

All measures of reformation are ef-
lectlve In exact proportion to their
timeliness; partial decay may be cut
away and cleansed; incipient error
corrected; but there is point at
which corruption can no more be
stayed, nor wandering recalled. It
has been the manner of modern phil
anthropy to remain passive until that
precise period, and to leave the sick
to perish. and the foolish to stray,
while 1t spent itself In frantic exer-
tions to raise the dead. and reform the

PRUNING Grape Vine.

Don't be afraid to prune the grape
Sine to within couple or three buds
of the old tree. Remember, It's the
new growth of the vine that produces
the fruit, and If too much Of the old
vine is left to be sustained, 1t will
rob the growing fruit and cause 1t to
be of inferior quality. Also. we con-
slider that, where the growth Is rank,
the vitality Of the vine is impaired.
