Be Happy Today.

He that hath SO mNly causes of joy,
and so great, is very much in love
with sorrow and peevishness, who
loses all these pleasures, and chooses
to sit down upon his little handful of
thorns. Enjoy the blessings of this
day, if God sends them; and the evils
of it bear patiently and sweetly; for
this day only is ours. We are dead to
yesterday and We are not yet born to
the morrow. But if we look abroad
and bring into one days thoughts the
evil of many, certain and uncertain,
what will be and what will never be,
our load will be as intolerable as it
is unreasonable.-Jerem Taylor.

Boys and girls should be encouraged
to raise poultry.
Wet feet are just as bad for hens
as they are for folks.

For the city market there is moth
ing between the broiler and rooster.
Every week there should be a fresh
supply Of clean, fine earth in the dust

No wonder some mems hens never
weigh anything. The lice have just
about carried them away.
Nobody wants to buy a dirty egg,
and the only way to keep the eggs
clean is to keep the nests clean.
Middings and cornmeal wet with
skim milk make a fine forcing feed
for culls that are to be marketed.
Spraying a chicken house with 1
to 20 solution of lime-sulphur will
effectually destroy all nits and lice.
An unruly or greedy rooster has
no place in chicken yard: the
dinner table is the safest roost for
him.
Well managed poultry is preferable

Womaniiness.

Perhaps it would not be SO easy to
lose "womanliness" as some people
seem afraid it would be. Perhaps all
the pow-wow about becoming desexed
is superf1uous. Weininger calls atten-
ton to the fact that while there are
people who are anatomically men and
psychically women, there is no such
thing as a person who is anatomically
woman and psychically man. How
ever masculine her appearance, a
woman's psychic qualities remain dis
tinctively feminine. At least, Mr..
Weininger says so.

57s to 6 pounds. Ducklings should be
marketed from nine to twelve weeks
of age. After that they take on weight
slowly, and it is not profitable to keep
them longer than twelve weeks.
Geese grow about as rapidly as
ducks. Allowance of course must be
made for the original difference in
size-newly Matched goslings weigh

not grow rapidly at the start, but de-

Aged Survivors of Our Wars.
l am informed by the United States
pension Office that the last soldier Of
the rebellion will die in 1855. That
is the estimate made by those who
make study of vital statistics. If
the last veteran survives until that
date he will have lived ninety years
after the surrender Of Lee.
Kronk, who died couple of years
ago in New York state, was the last
soldier of the War of 1912, and he

years after peace had been signed.

More Charity at Less Cost.

The plan adopted in Cleveland tc
combine all of its ffty-three philan'
thropic organizations has been quite
successful 50 far. Money has beer
saved in administrative cost, and, ir
the aggregate, more money has been
collected than before.
We read in a Cleveland contempt
rary that formerly it cost at least $1,000
a society to collect the annual income
of the fiftythree institutions. Financial
solicitors were paid from IS to so per
cent for their work. The commission
averaged 80 per cent and the fifty-three
societies realized only $4,000 out OF
SI6o.ooo donated This was not only
heavy tax, but it was economically
a scandal.
Under the new system the cost OF
administration has been reduced at
least one-half, perhaps more. Another
substantial advantage of the new plan
is that administrative officers will be
able to devote almost all their time 10
the real work of their organizations,
while under the old system they had to
devote more than half OF their time to
the task 81 soliciting subscriptions.
