The Mississippi Of Streets.

A street is like river, with its hui
man current carrying all manner Of
drift between its banks of residences
or shops on either side. And if this
smile be appropriate then New York's
Broadway is the Mississippi of streets.
Probably no other avenue in the world
presents so many contrasts in the flot-
sam and jetSam it carries from Har-
lem to the Battery. Every type of hui

and orchards, proud hulled craft in

the surging mass. Banker and boot

BOYS AND THE FARM

Secretary Wilson, of the department
of agriculture, is trying to learn why
the young people leave the farm and
has sent list of questions to the
township correspondents. Among the
questions we note queries rs 10 wheth-
er spelling schools, dances, apple peal
ings, social parties, literary societies
and carpet-rag sewing still are held or
still exist.-News Item.
In recent years there has been a
tendency to discuss the reasons why
boys leave the farm and why they are
so loath to return to it. There are
several reasons why the city attracts
boys. Most people believe that the
city affords better opportunities to ac-
cumulate wealth. In this age when
people are looking for get-rich-quick
plans they are not contented with the
slower process of accommodating wealth
on farm. They see men in various
industries getting immensely wealthy,
and if their ambition runs in that direc,
ton, they are drawn to the places
where they think such opportunities
are presented. That there are COM
paratiyely few who succeed in gaining
wealth rapidly, they do not seem to
realize, and if they do, they have hope
that they will be among the chosen
few. They must know that near the
mansion stand the novels of the poor,
that side by side in cities there is
wealth and at1luence and the most
squalid poverty. They will learn that
the large majority of those who 60 to
the city meet with sad disappointment.
They do not find an FL Dorado as they
had hoped; they do not find their tasks
any easier than on the farm: they and
their children can not enjoy the pure
air of the country: they can not be as
independent as is the tiller of the soil.
1t they receive large salaries it costs
them more to live. If they enjoy the
various forms of amusement, it means
the constant draining of their purse.
There are things which lure the
young men to cities which are not OF
as good repute as the desire to gain
wealth, and it is these that lead many
to their ruin, and there are many who
are ruined. Their ruin may not be 50
apparent, but, if statistics can be trust
ed there are many.-EXchange.

The POSTAGE Stamp.

Consider the postage stamp. 1t says
nothing regarding the difficulty OF the
task assigned to it, but by dint OF close
application it usually gets there; also
it delivers the goods.
Again, if one isn't enough to carry
the thing through. two or more by
working tremendously together see the
thing to a finish.
No matter If the (maiD matter be
weighty, it puts a good face (of Wash
hgton) on it and goes directly to the
point. 1t gets licked and stamped
upon, and men besmirch its fair fea-
lures and ofttimes give it more to
carry than the postaD union allows.
But, in spite of all this, 1t sticks I'M
flinchingly to the matter In hand by
virtue Of the fact that it knows that 1t
has good backing.
Its stick-to-i t-ivity is worthy OF en-
ulation by you.-Judge's Library.

Queer Collateral.

"Here is fact as strange as 1t Is
true" said an Psychologist. Mum
mics in ancient Egypt were used chief
ly as collateral.
"When an Egyptian wanted to bor-
row he gave his fathers or grand
fathers mummy as security. Some
times, If he required a large sum, he
gave his father and both grandfathers,
and he would even throw in the num-
my of his mother-in-law If she for
tunately happened to be in a mumml-
fed state.
Joking aside" the Psychologist con-
tinued. what | tell you is the truth.
An Egyptian was not permitted to
borrow without pledging the mummy
of some near relative. 1t was deemed
in Egypt both impious and infamous
not to redeem so sacred a pledge as
that, and he who died with family
mummy still in pawn was himself
buried in unconsecrated ground. Gin

stumbling attempts at witty sallies
brought few smiles.
Harry had succeeded in quietlng
Carolyns alarms. and she IN turn had
given her own version of matters &c
Lucy. And a long talk Harry had
with Mr. Medders had helped. Harry
would not tell Medders the inside
facts, but he told him that later he
would make everything plain. AT this
time, he said. to disclose everything
would be to tarnish woman's name
and Medders partly understood. The
good old man was fond of Harry. And
he had lived long enough TO know that
appearances We're often decetful He
was willing to give Harry the benett
of the doubt
But 1t was a quiet dinner. After
they had left the table Harry succeed
ed in getting Lucy to come and talk
with him in the reception room. ana
there he begged her to be patient I'M
til he felt that the time had arrived
for him to make a clean breast or
everything to her. At last he coaxed
back the smiles to her face, but only
after giving his word of honor that so
far as he was concerned. the presence
OF Daphne in his house was not re-
Election upon him.
Meanwhile the Count. endeayoring
to keep his promise to get Harry out
of the scrape. slipped out into the
lawn. and by throwing pebbles against

! Blazes was attracted her attention.
She opened the windows, and in an

Harry's shoulders.
