WHAT IS YOUR VALUE

 How much are you worth? Not in dollars and cents, not in any commercial way at all, but as man or woman? This question of values is an important one. Some one has figured it out that the person who earns $50 a month is worth $1O.0O0. That is his earning capacity through number of years with six per cent | added
 It has been figured that a person at twenty has cost some one $4.15O for his support and that at that age his commercial value is s4.OO0 It is | estimated that a woman of thirty is | commercially worth $16,0OO.
 Here we have commercial values more or less arbitrarily fixed Of course not all young men of twenty have a commercial valuation of $4,- 900. while some are worth more than that. Not all women at thirty are. commercially speaking. worth sl6.- 900. Some are worth more.
 There are men and women whose value to the world can never be fix ed, so great are their services to mankind. There are many others upon whom society has placed an estimate who would not bring thirty cents at auction were their secret failings or true worth known.
 But that is not the kind of worth we are figuring. The valuation at which one is placed can never be one of mere figures. There are men and women working in the Interest of others whose value can never be estimated. Take for instance the earnest women who employ their time in helping the young people who gather in the settlement house S of the country. Can any valuation be placed upon them? No. For the reason that they are destined to live through the generations to come m the boys and girls whom they have helped and in their descendants.
 Every girl kept in the right path. every boy saved to the community is something so priceless that it is impossible to say just what the va'u- them alright is.
 Every boy and girl saved to use full citizenship through the play grounds and places of recreation pro vided through the energy and insist net VIII or the men ana women De hind the playground movement is a testimonial to the pricelessness of the lives of those who spend their lives in the work of securing these ad- vantages to the children of the country.
 And one might go on through an endless change of circumstances and combinations. reciting the good that is done unostentationsiy and never come to the end. but with each reel tai revealing the pure gold of human nature that has no commercial value but which is priceless weighed in the scales of bcneficence
 The glory and the power does not belong alone to those who sit in the places of the mighty. Quite ire quently it belongs to some humble soul who is struggling along with the problems of life. getting as ouch out of it as he or she can but giv- ing back infinitely more than they could possibly ever give.
 Be worth all you can but always he worth while and he engaged in worthwhile things, is a pretty good motto to use

ArtIess lYinQ.

Banker NaftZger of Wichita, Kan, worth d quarter of a million, was so wrapped up in business matters that he had no time to become a skillful liar, and so will have to go to the penitentiary. Abnormal greed has also had something to do with his misfortunes.
 There had been a series of post office robberies in Kansas. resulting in the transfer of large quantities of postage stamps from the custody of the government to that of a person or persons then unknown. The gov ernment with that hound like pa tience for which it is famed in the pursuit of those who despoil it. pro ceeded to the solution of the puzzle regarding the identity of the thieves. At last it secured loose end and unraveled the mystery. A former chief of police of Wichita was ascer- tained to be a constituent part of the conspiracy. and he, finding himself incxtricably mixed up in the matter, sought illustrious company for his journey to the penitentiary. He "squealed" on Banker Naftzger, who, taken unawares. confessed that he had been buying postage stamps at prices inconsistent with the price of pork and other things which con tribute to the high cost of living These bargain price postage stamps were disposed of presumably in the regular course of the banking busi- ness at their face value. Prices were held up. perhaps. that the govern ment might not be given a new cause of complaint-unfair compe- tition.
 Having admitted this much, under the excitement of arrest, the banker could not disregard it in his defense. He must explain if away to the satis- faction of the court and jury. Here is where his unfamiliarity with scien- tific and reasonable lying put him in deeper.
 He supposed, he said, that the post chief of police as a reward for serv- ices rendered the government. Now. a liar who had been carefully traineS would have supposed no such a thing The state of the treasury of the United States. as the banker ought to have known, has never been depleted to such an extent as to compel the government to use postage stamps in the discharge of its obligations.
 Again. it never occurred to the guileless Naftzger that one could de scend so low on the ladder of crime as to rob postoffices. He had never heard of such a thing. though the papers of Wichita had been trying for weeks to get him excited over these mysterious robberies
 Naturally, Naftzgers explanation of his part in the affair was regarded as insufficient. so that any further communication of which he may wish to deliver, himself may be made to the warden of the penitentiary
 Perhaps the most artistic lie that the ingenuity of the most skilled pre- varicator could have produced would not have served in this case, but it must always remain a matter of re- gret to Naftzger that the experiment was not tried

ANSWER.
If you have read my articles, sew
eral of them have practically answer
ed the questions you have asked in
your letter. Too much corn is very
injurious to chickens. Your chickens
have evidently been overfed and have
filled themselves up on impure wa
ter, which has given them the bow
ell trouble mention in your letter.
If you will confine them to yards,
physic them out good with EPSON
salts, and give them a soft mash
feed OF bran and corn meal scalded,
with Black Draught in it, or Bark
ers Condition Powders, those that
will eat and are not too far gone,
you can probably save, but when
chicken once gets sick. my experiences
is that they usually die. At the first
appearance of any trouble, you
should change their feed and their
surroundings generally. Cleanse
their system out and you can proba-
bly, stop the others from dying.
If you will read replies to inqui-
ries in March 81 issue of The Jour
nal, you will find how to turn eggs.

Different Breeds of Chickens

N short time l will take up
the different varieties of fowls,
H ! and try to describe the good
points of each or the most
popular breeds and some OF
the fancy varieties. VIII also give
standard description or these varie-
ties.
Many of our readers have been
asking me what variety to select, or
what is the best breed for Lnem to
take up. This is a hard question to
solve, and one should, by all means,
take the variety that they admire
the most If they are interesting to
the owner, they are naturally better
cared for and will yield better re-
suits than some variety that possibly
would not be so attractive to them.
For instance, if you wish a fowl
to use exclusively for broilers-
something that would make "a to
l pound weight, quickly--it would
be a good idea to take variety that
is active, that feathers quickly, and
whose unoat is 6no in taxturo-sIIch
