: why tho Deaf Are Grateful.

A pleasant contrast to the sad fate
Of Beethoven is furnished by DIR. Thrill
wall, the radical bishop of st. David's,
who wrote the history of Greece that
held the field before the arrival OF
Grote. In his old age he became stone
deaf, but, so far from fretting, declared
that the infirmity was really a blessing,
because it relieved him from the futile
conversation Of bores. One day a
friend, forgetting the bishops deafness,
greeted him with the usual remark
about the weather ''Eh?" queried the
bishop. 1T is fine day." beloved

Cow Testing Work Started.

A number OF the progressive
dairy farmers around Willmar have
recently taken an advanced step in
the development of their herds. This
consists in the testing Of their herds
for production. The milk is weighed
daily from each COW. and a compos-
ite sample Of milk is taken once a
month and tested for butter fat at
the High School Agricultural labor
atory. In this way the total milk
and butter fat yield for each COW is
secured for the month. At the end
Of the year the complete record Of
production for each COW will be
known. s.sz =. g. ss.: :.>.
This is a. business like way Of
checking up with each COW individ-
ually. It enables the farmer to Gull
out such cows as do not give rea=.
sonable profit and is Of the greatest
value in building up a high producing
herd. The farmers around Willmar
who are starting this work are as

WITH the PLAYS and PLAYERS

every day at sunrise and each evening
at sunset to talk to her sisters spirit
in the tree. The tree was the emblem
Of June's faith, Junss religion-some-
thing real and true-her cloud Of
smoke by day. her pillar Of fire by
night guiding her into the land Of real
ity, into the eternal summerland cf
love. And to June, who sat daily
watching the sun turn the manifold
hues Of the serrated bark Of the trunk
Of the tree into prisms of beauty she
realized that the translucent veil Of
mystery overshading her primitive self
was beginning to reveal to her the
land Of promise-the land Of human
desire.
And thus June dreamed-dreamed of
things supernal. Each morning the
roseate hues of early dawn dressed
this tall appealing symbol Of natures
majesty in regal spiendor and as the
sun glimpsing across the saffron tint
ed mountain tops chased the linger-
ing shadows Of the dawn beneath the
chariot wheels Of departing night,
June felt In her homespun dress of
red-symbolic OF early morn and glor-
ious Sunset-the same thrill that suf-
fuses the heart of the un-worshipper
Of the East. And through the day,
whether sitting beneath the Pine or at
the cabin door above the purIing
brook. she reveled In this her idyllic
paradise and she worshipped the Lone
some Pine-her Pine. her symbol Of
reality standing stern and grim in
kingly sublimity. watching over the
lower region of the Gap and far out
DER the winding trail that lead to some
mans land-the land of her knight,
the cavalier that would some day an
swer the beckoning Of the waving
branches of the lordly tree or perhaps
hear 1t as it crooned out its mathis
and vespers every day in isotonic song.
For the Pine sang song, though June
believed 1t was the voice of her sister
responding to the thrilling chords of
the myriad harps of needles and tym-
pani cones.
So June dreamed until one day some
one from some mans land heard the
call of her guardian tree and came to
worship at its shrine and from behind
the barrier of fragrant rhododendron
she heard the stranger cry out a well
come and 1t seemed to June that the
Lonesome Pine inclined its crest in
greeting to the new arrival
Her paradise had at last been in
vaded by a messenger from the out
side world and she, trembling and
bending forward like the wild anemone
that inclined toward the Pine in the
grassy sod, was drawn towards the
stranger and alone at the foot Of the
Pine at the real altar of her faith. she
was catechized in the knowledge Of
truth.
With her fairy talisman in her hand
she sat beside the stranger and learned
all about the reality of things. She
wandered with him back nineteen
hundred years and followed the Trail
of the Good Man who brought love into
the world and was killed for so doing.
The Pensacola journal., 1913-02-09

And as she listened to the story-the
greatest tragedy the world has ever
known-her tears fell on the fairy
stone that she held In her hand. The
stranger took 1t and told her how at
that time messenger came and told
the little folk who lived beneath the
Pine. OF the terrible deed that had
been committed In the golden city of
Palestine, and that instead Of shedding
tears which turned into flowers as the
tears Of the good always do. the tears
OF the little folk as they listened to the
recital of the sad story, turned into
tiny crosses to remind the finders of
them that love ruled the world, but
that hate always crucif1es love.
And June learned the story Of love
and though at first the nights of doubt
loomed up gloomily and days of anx-
iety came, they passed away leaving
behind the warm sunshine Of knowl-
edge tat nourished love. So hand in
hand the stranger and June left the
LoQely Pine and went out into Some
ones land and all their life they were
made happy, for they carried with
them the remembrance Of the Pine,
realizing that its symbolism was one

but decided not to remove It until the

the glass plate on top OF it broken,

some one who thought the confin con-
tained money.
1t is stated that no record is in pos

ffThe Cross of the Fairies"
Looking over the rock-ribbed valley,
the Lonesome Pine reared aloft its
rugged strength feeling from the gold
en- bronzed cones that nestled close at
its crest right down into the roots that
guarded the subterranean earth houses
of the pigmy people who made the
Pine their trysting place that 1t was
indeed the guardian Of the mountain
side. Its branches reveled in the whir-
ling dust caused these summer days
by the wings of the fairies blowing by,
while at night they marked time for
the fairy songs sung by the little peo-
pie as they danced DER the fragrant
carpet of needles that lay all around
the staIwart tres.
It was an ideal spot such as true
fairies love for they always select ma
ture's most aesthetic vantage point

they can get. and here around the Pine
